I don't think it's necessarily that the cities are planned but that they're planned for cars. Dubai, Vegas and parts of Doha are pretty miserable to explore due to the scale. You're expected to be in an air-conditioned car between buildings, not wandering the streets.
When I started Python development I felt exactly like OP did. There was this unmaintained library that didn't support Python3 and was breaking everything — turns out it took 15 minutes to change few print and import statements to get it working perfectly.
You could make a sane argument in EU countries since getting documents and keeping them updated in every 8 years costs money here as well but no one would take that argument seriously here.

It's worth pointing out that most (if not all) the options listed are only free to a certain point.

Netlify and Github Pages, for example, are capped at 100 GB of bandwidth per month. It's a very generous cap and ample for most use cases, but something to keep in mind as your projects gain traction.
Google has basically the same profit margins with their Pixel phones compared to Apple and Android has 85% market share. Yeah you can sideload any app you want on your Android, but I've heard of no even half serious 3rd party competitors to the Play store. Not sure what the point is here.

My guess is the blame lies with insurers, probably keen to automate detection of "fraudulent whiplash claims" based on "the data". They'd get access to the records via their claims. This incident should show why sharing of data needs to be on a "need-to-share" basis by default if we want to have any hope of trying to stop this kind of thing in future.

Before that is was computer gaming to a large degree. Not yet sure if that isn't still the more reasonable and constructive use of computing power to be honest, although some results of machine learning begin to seem slightly impressive.

But I still think that system design is much more important than raw computing power, since the latter is still quite cheaply available on the market.

Yes, I agree, open source software isn't free. Anyone can take it, close it off and steal the fruits of my work to do whatever with it. Calling it "free" devalues the projects and their maintainers by giving the impression they'd rather use a questionable license model than create software for humanity.

We as the free software community need to show people who call it open source the door and have them escort out by security so they stop ruining the whole affair.

Perhaps an integration with their marketing / tracking / targeting / attribution businesses, which they’ve been spending billions on?

This article could have been co-written by Oracle PR, but still, it has some relevant details: https://www.businessinsider.com.au/oracle-most-influential-a...

Also, I gotta love their product name: Oracle Data Cloud. How deliberately vague is that? Sounds totally harmless. At least Adobe (yes, Adobe has an ad network too!) calls theirs Adobe Advertising Cloud.
I guess the way I see it is that most manufacturers are foreign rather than domestic, so that leaves you with making the importer liable for bad products. I think it’s a lot easier to implement that part of the supply chain with a bunch of zero asset, disposable companies, so it doesn’t really leave anyone that’s going to actually assume liability.

The retailer relies on the value of their brand and often have significant domestic assets. So by making the retailer liable you’re pinning down someone who can’t just fold their company and walk away.

And I don’t agree the retailer isn’t capable of vetting their supply chain. I’ll agree it’s not easy, but they’re in the best position to do it because they have a lot of leverage over their direct suppliers.
Yet web-apps are made to not be bothered by load-times. Web-apps are cached by the browser. Once downloaded, startup-time should be instantly.

And downloads shouldn't take too long. Basic 1Gbit connections give you 100Mbyte per second, 10M per 100mils. A landing page should be doable in 10M, and then there is at least one second left to load the rest of the page before the user can react and make a choice.

Apple avoids search and ads. Google avoids high end anything (except phones perhaps, but they will never take Apple’s share there anyway).
XCode, the iOS software libraries and tools are all Apple products and are used to develop software for iOS. By requiring that Apple allow developers to distribute software outside the App Store with no revenue for Apple, you are requiring Apple to give away their products for free. On what basis do you or anyone else have that right?

Apple has a monopoly on how those products are sold and licensed because they are Apple products, in exactly the same way that Fortnite and it's marketplace are Epic products. There's no requirement for Epic to open that up, and if they do it will be on their terms. Their house, their rules.
That was a dumb idea to begin with. We don't need phones that work like lego. Just reverting to how phones worked 5 years ago would be a massive improvement. For almost all users all they will ever need to do is replace the battery. We used to be able to replace the battery with no tools or skills and the screen was pretty easy if you had some skill at all.

The problem we face now is that the user can't fix anything at all, repair stores can fix things with great difficulty but they can't get new parts, and apple themselves can't even fix most things because the individual parts can't even be replaced on their own without replacing the whole thing. (The macbook keyboard which was prone to fail was attached with 50 rivets)

All we need is user replaceable batteries, and for service centres to have access to all the parts they need. Lewis rossman can't get access to a chip that was >$1 on the old macbooks and is prone to fail. The newer version of the chip is impossible to source meaning those macbooks either get binned or pay apple for a whole new mobo which costs more than the laptop is worth.

"It's not fair to execute anyone."

That's just an opinion, and mine is different. I believe that with very few exceptions, every first-degree murderer should be executed. Note that "first-degree murderer" is NOT equivalent to "person convicted of first-degree murder" which is why I have a lot of objections to the death penalty as a matter of public policy.
I find it genuinely surprising that we still have a royal family.

How to Copy a File in Python
You are correct that those have a pretty good interface.

But here is some advice from an old programmer: once you start making bigger and more complex projects, you will start to make your own convenience libraries. And soon you will realize that you've built your own React-like library. But only less stable and less well thought out, because react has the huge community and maturity.

But if you only do some small functionality, or something specific with the technology, vanilla is perfectly fine.

However, if you are a single page app coder, I would definitely go for something like React.

Apple is put in the position of a judge right now. They decide what malware is, and the user has no say. The problem is, the user should be allowed to choose not to delegate the task of setting definitions.

Most users do not want this, but some do.

Some users will consider a RAT a way to fix things, while others will consider some game to be a malicious drug. Both should be allowed to make their own decisions if they really want to.
The trivial solution to this is you have to unlock the bootloader/etc via a command/option which is only available on an unlocked device.

This is how google phones work. You can flash whatever you want when the bootloader is unlocked but it is locked by default and can only be unlocked while the phone is unlocked.

> In order to sell goods in a place like Walmart

This analogy only works if Walmart had a contract with 50% of Americans to buy everything from Walmart only and nowhere else. Those people would not be allowed to even grow their own tomatoes in their gardens, unless they pay Walmart $99 per year for that privilege.

We're working on a decentralized app platform that mechanically is unable to kick devs off. Its early and doesn't have a monetization layer yet, but it's our goal to provide developers and users alike with a home that will outlast the whims of a single corporation.

How is any of that anti-competitive? It's a fair competition between multiple app stores.

And Epic is also competing with Steam by having lower cut (5 % versus 30 % IIRC) leaving more money for the developers. It's good for the developers and consumers both.

Its usually less that they are ok with these problems and more that the alternatives have even more problems. Most OEMs copied apples designs so everything is shit. Rather than taking your laptop to the local apple store you now have to send it off to china and face all the same problems.

> In other words, Deep Learning's growing need for computing power seems to have reached a point at which it is now motivating fundamental research to find greener, cheaper, more energy-efficient hardware

I don't doubt we will find more frugal hardware energy wise, but calling it greener is somewhat dishonest.

> The economic incentives are very powerful: […]

Precisely, a technology is not green in itself, it depends on its use within society, and as you pointed out, we are talking about a race here. So the solution is not merely technological, there is some policy and/or societal change to make this greener. Otherwise we are just going to red-queen ourselves into Jevons paradox.
No they won't. You can configure windows out-of-the-box to completely disable updates (it won't even check to see if there's updates). And there's all kinds of settings in-between.

Distributed training is indeed a thing! A few random Arxiv pulls:

https://arxiv.org/abs/2007.03970
https://arxiv.org/abs/1802.09941

Efficiency and resource cost is the big question though. You don't pay for the electricity or part wear that you don't use, and home computers or workstations may not be as efficient at performing a training run vs a task-specific setup. AI@home might end up costing even more, and increase the footprint of the model more, than doing it all together.

Part of the magic really needed is finding simpler ways to achieve the same levels of model robustness.
Friend mine works as a legal at secretary white shoe law firm. Not what it sounds like. His job is using software to grind through corporate records and communications.

Nah, the relevant part of the lawsuit is that Apple is revoking not only the Fortnite developer account (which could be considered fair) but that they threaten to revoke the developer accounts of everyone working on the Unreal Engine, too.

I used to do consulting work as part of which I submitted Mac compatibility patches into the Unreal Engine source code repository. As is, it is not clear to me if I'll be hit by the Apple ban-hammer, too, or if they will limit it to "only" the 4000+ people directly employed by Epic.
Hasn't wage growth been even with inflation? I don't have sources at the moment, but that was my impression.

That's still not good (you'd hope for an increase in purchasing power), but not as bad as sliding backwards.

Eh, I wouldn't assign that too much importance. Most C/C++ tooling practically gives up on a missing closing brace and almost never gives the right error message.
Yea, they are very useful for small sites.
The bigger problem for me was to find a free backend hosting service, I've only found 3 free and all of them were pretty limiting: Heroku (the instances go to sleep and take 30+ secs to wake up), IBM cloud (256MB memory limit), Azure (pretty complicated, need a credit card for the free tier).

I was looking for a solution where I can host Java Spring/ASP.net toy projects easily and none of them were satisfactory
Programming languages, code editors and other developer tools exist for many platforms, without corporate backing. Developing apps for iOS would be very doable without Apple maintaining XCode.

But Apple are choosing to maintain XCode, not as a charity, but to make money selling phones -- $250 billion last year. It's not like they aren't getting paid for it…

Developers pay to advertise their apps (some of it goes to Apple) Apple pays to market Apple TV, Apple Music. Apple doesn't need to take in revenue to market other people's apps, advertising them is a money maker for them.

Also, you are talking about the margins on all Apple's services, some of which are much more expensive than others. The margins that other digital software stores can charge suggest to me that they can be very profitable without the 30% cut.

Full disclosure: I am a longtime Apple shareholder.
In contrast here, this data likely came from an insurance company, which got access to the data from their claims. They don't inherently care about these people, because they're all seen as "costs" to the balance sheet profits for the year. Sending their data out for "AI" to try and learn how to predict which claims can be rejected is a rational thing to do, in their eyes, whatever the cost (to those concerned and their data), since it might help improve their bottom line by rejecting claims faster.

At least there's a cynical take on this. They have no inherent interest in protecting this data, absent external pressures or legislation that imposes penalties.

It strikes me the real issue is the lack of negative inventive for people and businesses who screw up with data. If you build something physical that falls down and hurts people, your investor money ends up paying compensation. In tech though, the goal seems to be to make the revenues without ever touching the responsibility.

The story over the weekend of Amazon trying to avoid being deemed liable as a seller for goods they ship, (often) deliver, warehouse, market, dispatch and receive seems to sum this up. A race to the bottom when it comes to protections - Amazon effectively is a shop selling goods from others, as it all happens on their terms. We see similar in physical retail where the manufacturer or reseller has a retention of title over goods in the store, and that doesn't affect the store being responsible. It seems like the "being responsible for what you build" is very much lacking in tech companies, due to lack of external regulation to achieve it. Same here in this case.
Jet-based hovering vehicles like this and the Flyboard Air suffer from a pair of difficulties: inherent instability and the inability of their turbines to throttle up and down fast enough for basic computer control to keep them stable. Such vehicles are today manual-fly only and require a high degree of skill and talent to operate safely. I wonder if machine learning could be applied predictively to achieve a degree of stability beyond normal "tilting left, apply thrust left" programming.

I think the larger point of the post above is that building an app for an in-vogue platform should be seen as a business opportunity. It is important to know it won't last forever, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't build apps for one of the most lucrative marketplaces of the moment.

You do need to realize that this can change fairly quickly, so you should either use this as a springboard to something else, or just accept that it's a temporary business and not something that will stick around.

The concept still applies even if the problem isn't about being kicked out (which a contract could maybe solve), but simply about the market fading for one reason or another. One common thing that can happen is that the platform provider may decide to compete with you, which is often very hard to come back from - they usually have access to the platform in ways you can't replicate.
It's fine if an Apple Store is near my home. I prefer such service but also right of self repair.
