It's fine that you prefer Windows, but it seems like you are posting in a thread about an Apple API just to tell everyone about your platform preference. I wish you would not attempt to derail an interesting discussion into a platform war.

No, although both NYC and CA has higher sales tax than switzerland but about half of Norway.

To be honest my life does not change at all based on sales tax. Perhaps for cars but other than that it is sort of a rounding error. So little of my money goes to direct consumption compared to house and savings.
I wonder how fast the flow cell price will drop. But even at $1000 I might be tempted, except that I'm so damn old, and never (as far as I know) had any kids.
I think one reason is that some people, including me, find Slack's behavior of not moving threads with activity up extremely irritating. It means that thread replies are very easy to not notice and it makes it confusing to understand who knew what when.

I realize this is a matter of opinion but I think that's kind of the problem, both platforms have chosen one way and forced it on users. I'm not sure that there's any same way to make this configurable either, but I don't think one option is clearly Superior to the other.

There's also plenty of precedent either way, even just looking at old forum software which tended to sort topics by activity (the Teams approach). That seems to mean that neither way is going to be obvious to all users.

I guess the conclusion is that I'm not sure there's an approach to this problem that won't piss someone off, but by that token it's not a clear win for Slack.

Also for what it's worth I think Slack's behavior is the less common option across similar products, but I've not done any kind of exhaustive survey, I just use 4-5 of these things and Slack is the one that always throws me off by behaving that way.
A Question of Judgment
Adorama is legit, along with B&H they're one of the big names in cameras and photography equipment.

I've purchased from Adorama in the past without issues and you can call their salespeople for advice, which is unlikely with Amazon.

Someone quoted the actual EULA below. I won't repost it since I don't want to steal their thunder, but it's very clear you can virtualize macOS up to two instances on your Mac computer.

Extremely limiting, and a real bummer.

Here in 2020, Apple invests a lot of resources to allow other OS's to be virtualized on macOS, but you still can't virtualize macOS on other OS's

In 2013 I was generating code from SDL definitions which could also be used for data validation during serialization/deserialization. I had plenty of “model” packages which were just SDL definitions, build config, and maybe some unit tests to validate the schema constraints. (Edit: SDL is “schema definition language” which was a schema definition tool written for Ion with definitions in Ion.)

These were used in services and reactors which never touched raw Ion (at least not in any way different from Coral or BSF).

Full disclosure, I spent a lot of my free time working on Ion, both the supported implementations as well as my own. The additional data types are worth it alone, imho. Having to use JSON for most things now I’m frustrated at what is “missing”.
Online camera stores and places that sell $2500+ small, valuable, easily resold electronics are one of the #1 targets for credit card/identity fraud. It's likely that whatever you ran into is an unintended side effect of either Adorama's anti-fraud system, the anti-fraud system of their payment processor or your bank.

Adorama is a legit store, they've been around for 25+ years.
I’ve always had problems staying asleep, especially if I’m under stress or have a job interview. I’ll wake up around 3 or 4 and not be able to sleep again.

Not being able to sleep before a day of those fucking asinine whiteboard interviews has probably cost me millions in lifetime income.

Anyways, these are the things that help me sleep:

1) Only one coffee a day max, always right after lunch and before 3pm.

2) Set an alarm for bedtime and stick to a consistent schedule.

3) Don’t work or code right before bed, do something mindless for an hour like watching a show or playing a game.

4) To fall back asleep, use meditation exercises. Here are mine in order of most effective to least effective:

- Focus on your breathing and nothing else

- Imagine sinking deep into the ocean or into space

- Starting with your feet, imagine a warm calm and move up your body and out through your hands and head. (This takes practice to not immediately feel itchy all over)
The trackpad is decent. Roughly centered under the home keys. Plastic but pretty smooth (about 80% the size and 80% the smoothness of a late model MBP13). It's a physical clickpad that feels fine, and recognizes left, middle and right clicks. I haven't had a problem using the libinput defaults - gestures work, default sensitivity and acceleration is sane (although of course, fully adjustable).

> People are addressing millions of subscribers on social media sites and you can't figure out how to stream your class?

Joe Rogan, for example, has multiple full time staff. So, apparently this streaming thing isn't quite as easy as you seem to think.

However, I've got several professors who apparently need your vast, sophisticated audio-visual expertise. Anytime you wish to show up to demonstrate to them how easy this all is I'm sure they would be happy to have you. I'd make you do it for free, but I'm a jerk like that--they'd probably even buy you pizza and beer because they're nicer people than me.

(In case you don't get it--yeah, I'm calling you full of shit.)

> The A/V stuff should be figured out by your University IT/Telecom staff.

If you were in front of me, I would laugh in your face. The uselessness of University IT/Telecom is legendary.

Are the TAs (who aren't even back at school) and IT staff going to go to the houses of thousands of professors to install streaming equipment?

And the IT staff doesn't really exist much anymore at Universities because everything is "in the cloud", ya know, so we laid them all off.

And that's if you can GET a audio visual equipment, by the way. Webcams have been sold out for months.

And, I'll be blunt, I probably spent almost $2,000 to upgrade my equipment to reach the level of "not suck". Not "excellent", just "not suck". I'm a tech guy at a high level and can afford it.

However, you are also implying that every English professor should spend that when they are barely making living wages? Good luck with that.
The deal is that anyone willing to cough up the $100 developer fee is going to be 'approved'. Apple's not in a position to DQ anyone who's even remotely interested in making iOS more secure.

I think Slack's case against MS has legs. I work for a company that makes a competitive product (https://www.airsend.io) to Teams/Slack. It gives a bit of insight on what is happening here.

Teams comes free with office 365 (now microsoft 365). For just 5$ per user/per month one can get email/one drive/office web apps and teams. There is no way slack can compete with the pricing. Slack's pricing starts at 6.67$. For businesses, office apps are a must have. When Teams is bundled with office apps, there is really not a reason for businesses to go and pay for Slack. So one can argue MS is using its dominant position in office suite to undercut the competition. The fair thing to do is charge some money for Teams. Personally I feel we need to have more diversity and choices in the IT systems we use. Increasingly the tools we use are controlled by 2/3 dominant platforms (4 companies account for 49% value of Nasdaq 100). It is not good for customers in the long term. Once you obliterate the competition by bundling it free, one can always come back and raise the price.

There is some serious blood between MS and Slack (It all goes back to the time when MS tried to acquire Slack). FWIW, Slack's posture during that time was also not really good (Cocky). I am guessing - It hurt somebody's ego very badly in MS. So the leadership team in MS made it as a personal mission to obliterate Slack. The whole game is playing out now.

The amount of debt being created by governments, willy nilly, with lack of oversight due to 'COVID' is just scary. And that's just regular debt, not the broad-money creation problems articulated in the article.

Anyone with the power to 'invent money' is going to abuse it an fight to the death to keep it.

COVID was/is a fight, we're going to have to fight to rationalise finance, it may never happen.

Since 2008 we've been living in a weird kind of financial fiction.

FYI consumers have been 'paying' huge kinds of inflation on their homes. Having some degree of inflation would put that to bed quite nicely and it may not be so bad for quite a lot of people.
I think so, and I think they ("Jorbs", not the commenter) said a dumb thing. They're saying that winnable is bad when it's actually good. Being able to win or at least not die[0] is a pretty big precondition for being fair, and people generally don't enjoy unfair games.

[0] - This means at atomic components of the game, not necessarily the whole game. There are infinite games that have no ultimate win condition where the objective is to just go as far as possible, but if the progression is fundamentally unfair (i.e. if components are randomly unwinnable) then it will be also fundamentally unsatisfying.
Synapses' strength and ANN weights are sort of similar, but the learning process is different (co-activation vs loss propagation). Plus brains have neuroplasticity, but ANNs usually have at least one fully connected layer so it can emulate that, sort of.

Also how the brain's visual circuit parses stuff and how a CNN encodes concepts are sort of similar.

But, that's it so far :)

I have exactly the same feeling regarding the JSON "protocols" and whatnot.
> but you still can't virtualize macOS on other OS's

The EULA does not say "you must virtualise macOS as a guest VM on a macOS host". It says you must do it on Mac hardware.

As I said above - ESXi on Mac with macOS guests is very much a thing that happens, at reasonable scale.
Great shots. I love interior photos of old military planes and for many of them, what's available is sorely lacking in quality, detailed exploration or perspective. Yours are a fine contrast to those tendencies.

The spare tires had me wondering though. I mean, if one were to blow upon landing, wouldn't that be such a disaster that having a spare inside the plane becomes sort of irrelevant? Or does the AN-225 have so many wheels (which I suspect given its huge size) that it could indeed blow a couple and still continue landing stably enough for a spare to be useful afterwards? On the other hand, in the air I assume they can hardly replace them and why would they blow while retracted anyhow? No expert but those images in particular sparked some extra curiosity.

It seems so scary to ship software where you are not in full control over font rendering, because at that point you have suddenly have a million edge cases which you weren't forced to think about up front, but which can come back and bite you any time.

It’s at least not perfectly clear yet. I know some people who tested PCR positive and had negative AB test outcomes.

Kramer writes in his pre-print that you’ve linked:

>Of note, our observations are in contrast to a recent report by Long et al. that found waning titers 8 weeks post

138 virus infection as compared to acute responses (19). Especially in asymptomatic cases, antibody

139 responses disappeared after 8 weeks in 40% of individuals in the Long et al. study. However, the

140 antibodies measured in their paper were targeting the NP plus a single linear spike epitope. Much

141 more in agreement with our data, the same paper also reports relatively stable (slightly declining)

142 neutralizing antibody titers. The stability of the antibody response over time might therefore also

143 depend on the target antigen. The titers we measure here do correlate with neutralization as

144 discussed above.

That sounds like "predictive policing". The problem is that the institution that wants to predict crime might be inclined to use attributes of people who were previously arrested/convicted as the basis for the predictive model.

They won't be watching out for you based on personality disorders, addiction, or any other reasonable indicator. They'll watch out for you because you have attributes that match the type of people in jail right now. It's not going to be indicative of criminal behavior.
I was talking about just the DNS layer, but ... you can periodically check what IP Cloudflare would return and return that. (There's also the apex-CNAME record type, ALIAS or DNAME, I don't remember right now, but PowerDNS supports it, and you can set up the resolver to use CF's NS.)

Of course CF doesn't support anything like this, but it works well (because they use quasi fixed, static anycasted IPs for the HTTP(S and TCP?) proxying/load-balancing too), even if it's hacky as hell.

If they have any active verification of nameservers, and if they disable the proxies if they detect something bad, then ... it won't work obviously :)

But technically there's nothing amazing in being a registrar of a domain. So both CF and easyDNS are just stubborn in the name of user experience (consistency).

... all in all, working around any SPoF (reliably) will usually require exponentially more resources/engineering/care.

> All but about 5 to 7 percent of the world’s museums are currently shuttered because of the coronavirus pandemic, said Peter Keller, the general director of the International Council of Museums. According to the council’s research, one in 10 may not reopen, he added.

More than 30 respondents to a 41-country survey, by the Network of European Museum Organizations, said they feared they would have to close permanently, among them the Museo de La Rioja and Museum of the Americas in Spain; Kornberg Castle in Austria, the Robert Capa Contemporary Photography Center in Hungary, and the National Historical Museum of Albania.

The gravity of the situation varies by country, depending on how much museums rely on ticket sales and tourism, and how much government funding they receive. Museums in the United States which survive from earned income and philanthropy are more vulnerable than government-subsidized European institutions. The American Alliance of Museums reported to Congress in March that as many as 30 percent of museums could fail in the crisis, if there was no immediate intervention.

Hey HN! We’ve been quietly testing a new feature on StackShare over the past year where we let people ask for advice on which tool they should use in a given scenario. Stack Overflow is the best for programming questions, but they don’t allow for opinion-based discussions about which tooling to use for different use cases. HN is great too whenever there happens to be a popular Ask HN thread related to picking tools, but they're pretty infrequent.

So we built a new experience just for getting Stack Advice! To ask for advice all you need to do is describe your situation, your constraints, tag the relevant technologies, and your request gets shared with a network of thousands of developers that have used the tools you're asking about. There are some great discussions happening already, over 1,000 advice threads so far! Would love to hear everyone's feedback :)
You need a personal audience for that. Posting on Twitter with 10 followers at best isn’t likely to make it.
