If pouncing on villagers routinely resulted in catching a 12ga slug (buddy system when doing high risk things will do a pretty good job of guaranteeing that) then the tigers that live long enough to pass on their genes would be the ones that don't make a habit of pouncing on villagers.

It only takes a few generations for animals to become afraid of or lose their fear of humans. You see this in all sorts of species when hunting pressure is applied/removed.

>until boredom overtakes them.

What's wrong with being bored? I only live 100 years and I spend the majority of my life being bored. I want to be immortal so I can spend eternity being bored.

The people who claim they don't want to be immortal because they don't want to be bored don't get human psychology... Humans generally prefer being bored over being dead, period.
It's providing me with a unified experience, which is a benefit. You might not value it but others do.
How about don't buy it? Here's another question. Is it reasonable to buy a product, knowing that it works a particular way, and then expect the law to change in order to change the way that product works?

Sorry, I am not arguing that developers shouldn't be allowed to pick their payment processor on iOS, just doing some back-of-the-envelope math that tracked with the quote from the original article that 30% is not much higher than the processing fees in the first place on a $0.99 transaction. This was a surprising revelation to me since I hadn't considered that there were often flat fees of ~30 cents from card processors.

Yes it is fine. No I don't feel the same. You still have an open channel through which to make yourself heard and your points understood. If you think this is affecting your ability to progress check to see you're not making an excuse for it. (Easier said than done, and I have done so in the past.)

On the contrary it's easy to make this argument for physics.

Would physicists have developed the atomic bomb if they had been required to take a few extra courses in social sciences and if physics departments had an extra multi-disciplinary professorship? I don't believe this would have made any difference.

The suggestions are at the same time radical and pointless. Arguably he is simply trying to colonize other fields, as he accuses CS of doing.
I think the argument here is about pedagogy not performance.

CC processing fees may exceed this. Just using Stripe [1] as an example, 2.9% + 0.30 per transaction means $.329 for retail CC pricing. Surely Apple gets a discount, but it's price of competitive alternative that matters.

Part of the problem with this whole market is that we're talking about zero marginal cost goods. Taking away frictional costs of transaction, distribution and support, the economic argument is for prices to trend towards $0. Hence the "race to the bottom" once the App Store made distribution "free" for free apps.

No, buying an Apple device doesn't make the entire society worse, however supporting devices that take away control from their users does make the entire society worse.

After all that control doesn't disappear, it just moves to someone else's hands - and guess who has no say whose hands those will be.
As one begins meditation one becomes more aware of their thoughts and feelings. If one has been suppressing "negative" thoughts and feelings those will start to come to the forefront and may seem overwhelming. As a potential solution the article recommends working with a guided meditation either live with a teacher, or a recorded one. This is a great ideas as one develops the capacity to become comfortable with discomfort.
There was no such shortage if you only look at instantaneous figures and ignore the fact that a substantial proportion of the grid's generation capacity was in the process of rapidly disappearing due to a predicable daily process called "sunset", as the article does. See my other comment. I suspect the person you're replying to might be right.
They are overfished largely in order to be fed to other animals. Similarly we clear too much land to farm corn but we do it because it gets fed to animals. But nobody would refer to this to argue against eating corn.

I don't know how to quantify the potential sustainable yield of forage fish vs. the human diet, but I know that eating small fish is more sustainable than feeding them to larger fish and eating those.
[Edit to say. My bad, should have checked the submission history of submitter prior to commenting but will leave comment up as per the unspoken rules of editing a comment since my initial reaction was as below].

After reading https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24164470 (about a GPT-3 created blog article reaching the front page of HN) and reading the submitted article (and trying to parse some of it) I'm genuinely not certain if I'm playing 'Where's Waldo' or if the various at times awkward phrasing is simply a case of E.S.L (English as Second Language) or lack of proof-reading.

Not a dig, I am 100% uncertain if GPT-3 generated this article or not.
Those users would always be there. If there was another App Store instead they would be there. If there were app stores competing there would be users with dollars to spend on both. The App Store doesn't provide users because it does something special, it provides them because there is no other option to install apps on your expensive smart phone/tablet without using it.
So they really wanted to call their product "something"works. Is that just because it was a Microsoft Works competitor, or was there other software using "Works" to refer to integrated office software?

Also, I see a lot of places describing the Claris offices as 6 miles from Apple HQ, probably all from this source. Where was it exactly? I'd imagine in that commercial area in Sunnyvale and north Santa Clara, but I've biked around that area many times and never noticed a "wedge."
No, the primary reason is limited access to the energy market and limited resources on their island and that they're an island. And there is China. Hydrogen is a wonderful alternative if you don't have alternatives. But its awful if you have plenty, like the rest of the world.

Right - they have very little in expenses in Australia. Because all the development and maintenance is in other countries. That is my entire point. So they take the market value (transfer price) of the expenses and transfer that money to countries where those expenses are incurred. They then pay for expenses related to their local offices and 2000 employees. What's left over is called profit, is taxed in Australia, and they paid $100mil of taxes on that profit last year.

Lets say you are sitting in Chicago. You create a search engine, get a thousand developers working on it. You then set up an Australian portal for that web page, on which Australian businesses buy ads. In your version, the costs for Australia are zero. In reality, those costs include the development of the search engine in Chicago.

> Adding DRAM to a GPU-heavy machine has limited benefit due to the relatively low bandwidth to the device. They're effectively both HBM machines if you need the ~TB bandwidth per device (or per socket).

This POWER10 chip under discussion has 1TB bandwidth to devices with expandable RAM.

Yeah, I didn't think it was possible. But... congrats to IBM for getting this done. Within the context of this hypothetical POWER10, 1TB bandwidth interconnects to expandable RAM is on the table.
Let's dig a little deeper into this.

You're exactly right that they are making money out of money by using me. But me, myself.. I am not making money out of money. I do not have enough money to make more money out of what I have. I get money by exchanging my labor with my employer for money.

In turn, the company takes what I make and sells that for more money. The company is who is truly "making money out of money". The less they pay me and/or the more they sell, the more money they make.

If you do not have sufficient capital to begin with, you cannot make more money out of money (i.e. you cannot generate wealth)

Our school district is 100% distance learning for now. If you find yourself in a similar situation, here are some tips we have found helpful, especially for our 2nd grader:

1) Print out the daily/weekly schedule for the student, and put it up on the wall somewhere. This is one less tab they have to keep open and refer to constantly. Also, a second copy helps parents keep on top of the kids schedule. A color printer here is a huge benefit. We have an HP Color LaserJet Pro M255dw, and it’s amazing.

2) Get a headset with a microphone; aim for comfort more than style. Something over-ear with a cushioned headband. They’re going to be wearing it all day, and earbuds can fall out of small ears. My 7yo daughter looks like an airline pilot with hers on. They’re huge, but she loves them.

3) Encourage your child not to panic when something goes wrong. Adults are much better equipped to handle meeting malfunction than kids. They won’t get an unexcused absence or other demerit because of a computer malfunction. The kids extend grace to the teacher when they see it, and they’ll be treated in kind.

>[smartphones are] not a console you play to entertain yourself, or even a PC for work: it is the foundation of modern life

IMHO, this is a perfectly valid argument.

To be clear, I have no idea how that could be legislated, nor do I necessarily think it should be. I'm only saying that it's easy to see why they aren't the same thing.
Mainly because people in power die off. There are many ways to solve this including pushing people out of power after they have been there for some period of time.

Example, 50 year tenure limit for professors after which they can't be professors any more or they're forced out to a different industry. Similar for politicians, etc.

My, admittedly limited, understanding of current social science theory seems to claim more and more that boundaries of race, class, gender etc are real boundaries that preclude identification and understanding. I identify with men, because I am a man, I can't possibly understand a woman's point of view for the same reason. We are encouraged to believe in privileged positions where knowledge is spesific to this position and irrelevant in others.

Computing requires a common language and a common understanding, as does any discipline where you are dealing with the real world. If you extend social theory into computing you WILL end up with people claiming it is discriminatory to privilege any ideas within the field. Sounds like a nightmare to me.
#2 Doesn't seem feasible for large portions of the world though.

I did some flight lessons in rural Manitoba. You got ~45 minutes of flight training for every hour you paid for.

Then I considered restarting them once I moved to Toronto... you get about 20, 25 min of training for every paid hour - the rest is just getting out of restricted space. If you wanted to head to actual "unpopulated area", I think you'd need to book a 3 hour lesson in order to get any actual training. Completely unfeasible.

And this is in Canada, a famously sparsely populated nation. It feels even less feasible for majority of more densely populated countries.

(basically, by definition, if you only allow flight training in the unpopulated boonies, you'd deny it to a very large super-majority of population. One may view that in positive or negative light, of course)
C++ for Python Developers
They might want the App Store, we don't if they're willing to pay for it because they have no choice.

And it's absolutely a shakedown. It's not a service, it's a requirement. A service implies app developers have options. They do not. Apple could raise the price to 70% of the revenue and app developers would have no choice but to pay. It's not much different than the mob saying "it'd be a shame if this business went away for a while, wouldn't it" and demanded protection money.

Oh that's interesting, I actually thought about that recently when I saw a "speed monitored by aircraft" sign on a highway. I wondered if an ADS-B receiver would pick it up. But... indeed, it's quite often that I see an aircraft and observe that it is not being picked up by my ADS-B receiver. Not sure whether due to low altitude , or that they are simply not transmitting..
Building GUIs with DearPyGui
Memory is seemingly virtual but in reality all memory takes up physical space, so eventually you'll hit limitations.

I don't know about the whole "damage" part but from a logical perspective you have a limited amount of space in your head and therefore limited memory.

If a thing thinks, by induction it will be finite. I don't know if it will "want" to be.
> , it opens a loophole for everyone to avoid the 30% cut altogether.

But this is a good thing, not a bad thing. Literally the purpose of all this, is to get around this cut. It is better for developers and consumers, to take whatever actions possible, to support loopholes, that get around this 30% cut.

This is the explicit goal here, and the reasons why it is good. The loophole would be a good thing.
> They're specifically built GFlop and memory-bandwidth machines

That would indicate their theoretical peak performance is higher. Unless you can line up your data so that the GPU will be processing it all the time in all its compute units without any memory latency, you won't get the theoretical peak. In those cases, it's perfectly possible a beefy CPU will be able to out-supercompute a GPU-based machine. It's just that some problems are more amenable to some architectures.

This was in a category of good software that doesn’t exist much today, and you just know it when you experience it.

Apps like this were filled with features that don’t fit into regular marketing bullet points but were evidence of care and attention. I used the graphics module all the time and it had some great ones. Example: I would select an object, copy it, paste it, then immediately move the pasted object; then, when I pasted the object a second time, ClarisWorks moved the new one for me by the same relative amount. That turned a tedious layout task into exactly what I wanted, in seconds.

And of course “any kind of document frame anywhere” was unbelievable at the time.

Today, when I think of just the time I spend with something like the fiddly and frustrating text selection mechanism on iOS (that I used to write this comment), we have lost something as an industry. Software can be a craft, not just something you slap together.

Meh, I don't think you or anyone can seriously make that claim.

I think the mind/human psychology would adjust like we do now. As we progress in life, we are shaped by our experiences, but most of what we experience become distant memories or are completely forgotten. When I look back on my early life, even things that were deeply impactful to me, the memories are almost like they almost happened to another person. IF we lived to be hundred of thousands of years old, I think we would just experience this to a more severe degree.
