Because it isn’t clear if it matters that much at all. You are using devices with larger transistors than what TSMC is shipping right now. If it was a 14nm Intel chip in your iPhone it wouldn’t matter that much, your phone was shipping 14nm chips a few years ago and you still bought one. People are still using those 3 year old phones and by all indications the old phone use trend is accelerating.

However it is utterly inconceivable that anyone would “go back” to using some old social media platform.

For one arm standup push-up if you have push-up handles then you use one of them and the other arm on the floor and you alternate this basically puts more of the load on the arm that is on the floor while providing some support.

You can also use a palm on the floor and forearm on the floor if you don’t have the handles or just use a book/anything to elevate one arm to reduce its range of motion and to allow you to transfer more and more weight to the other.

But for hand stand push-ups you have other ways of progression such as curling your body to reduce the center of mass and to isolate your arms, chest and shoulder more from your back and core.

I generally avoid one hand anything because it’s too easy to get injured which is one of the main issues with body weight.

Most people won’t be able to lift enough weight to get injured and unless you are doing singles/doubles you are more or less safe.

With tings like one armed handstand pushups it’s way too easy to get to a point in your range of motion where you have absolutely no chance of holding that weight in fact it’s rather easy to do it with normal hand standing pushups. There are safer options for shoulder/delts dominated pushups than hand standing ones.

Let’s say competing app stores won’t be used. Then why is it an issue for Apple to allow them, given that they know they would still be the default and have the advantage? Apple is in this situation at where control the platform completely, and could have the default store. But somehow that’s not enough for them to consider opening the app market a little bit.

Using that reasoning, they are in the best position to actually open to competition.

You can't just create new fab with money.
Nobody in the semiconductor industry will put up with anyone in the supply chain making a 600% margin.

Large Nvidia chips might not be able to move quickly, but all of the MCU, WiFi, etc chips would migrate to cheaper fabs like SMIC. Which reduces TSMC's revenue, which reduces their ability to invest in new processes. Cents (and even fractions of cents) matter to those chips.
Digital Sight Management, and the Mystery of the Missing Amazon Receipts
Kubernetes was released only 6 years ago so I'd imagine there is still a lot of legitimate evolution left in the ecosystem. I'd have to compliment you for choosing a project like this rather than something that had no chance of working because the ecosystems are completely set, like a new programming language. I believe there will be a distributional challenge for you in getting people to use this software. You can't pay for an advertising campaign. Maybe the most you can do is post on HN, but after that, people will forget about it. The fact that once it's used once in a GitHub project others will be forced to use it provides some hope. You say you want to be like JQuery over javascript. It may be worth it to you to figure out how JQuery solved their distributional challenge. Just as nobody needs to use JQuery, nobody will need to use your software, and there will be a strong temptation for people to bypass it and just use raw Kubernetes.

It is amazing the complexity of modern software projects like Kubernetes and I'd agree they have challenges in creating a simple interface that everyone will like while still getting the software to work consistently. According to the principle of radical skepticism it's amazing that anything so complex works at all.
The blockchain is only used for handling the IDs, but the core project functionality does not rely on a blockchain beyond that.
I’ve found similar concerns in an official church scripture app which I will not name.

It was sending an enormous amount of data back to the church including what the user was reading and for how long, everything the user highlighted or bookmarked etc.

It was enough to really question the need for such data.

I really believe that if that data served a legitimate purpose to the functionality of the app (which I’m sure a lot of it did) then the data should have been saved locally on the users device.

I'm not sure why this appears to be a personal attack thing for you. I totally agree with the other commenter on this, 99% of the time when I see an article that is super long and takes a long time to get to the point I'll just click off. The fact is that it just doesn't matter or affect me enough to invest more than a minute or two reading it. In written form I prefer just getting the facts, not a short story. For longer stuff I prefer listening so I can go on a walk or do other things while taking in the (not really useful to me, but interesting) information, like a podcast format.

You may prefer the opposite, and thats OK too. It doesn't necessarily mean there is anything to significant reflect on in either of our lives. Or that one of us has the 'wrong' preference.

Even a cursory look at the open source ecosystem shows that GPL doesn't work like that. In fact, you can easily find examples that show the exact opposite: look what happened to MySQL, while Postgres continues to thrive. Look at GPL-licensed X11 implementations, or GPL web servers, or DNS servers (which are pretty much nowhere).
You created the hypothetical, not me. So you can feel free to answer your own questions because I'm not exactly sure what your point is.

This is about giving users and developers a choice outside of Apple's app store. If you like freedom and choices, you should get on the right side of this debate.

If some relatively small group of users had a choice, they would always be able to choose Apple's protection.
I don’t disagree with you, but again, they are not taking away anyone’s license apart from Epic’s. This is a fact, and there is no way around it. Taking away Epic’s license will have effects on other developers, but this is not the same as revoking their licenses.

The OP was not about a constructive discussion of the consequences of that, it was about Apple going after other developers. Which is factually wrong.

Keep in mind that TSMC also gains a position where they are the only superpower in fabs. They can duplicate the N5 fab and sell at any price they want. Apple pays R&D. Imagine a world where someone up-front pays your R&D, pre-pays batches at a profit for you, and lets you sell to anyone else while making you the best in the world. They gain basically more than Apple does from this.
TSMC just stopped making chips for one of its biggest customers just because the U.S. passed a law. They're building a big facility in Arizona just to satisfy the economic nationalists in the U.S. Plus, Samsung is also outside of China, and while their technology is behind TSMC, they are fairly competitive. I don't think any ties Taiwan has with China are very worrying in this case.

TSMC's ties with the U.S. are, on the other hand, a big strategic threat to China, and maybe to other countries that aren't the U.S.

Native English UK Reader here and whilst the words have essentially the same meaning, I would definitely have a different take away from these two:

- John is a nice guy, but he beats his dog.

- John beats his dog, but he's a nice guy.

For me, the difference is that the second one carries more of an implication that the speaker doesn't consider dog beating all that problematic since even though John does it, he's still a nice guy. Also, to me, the first one is more judgemental towards John than the second.
Specialization is a feature of global trade. Regions focus on specific industries to gain expertise and increase efficiency.

Specializations change over time. The US, specifically Silicon Valley, has different specializations today than it did in the 60's. A lot of the semiconductor specialization moved overseas, costs came down, and in general the world is richer. Other specializations include things like China and injection molding, Japan and mechatronic technologies in the 80's and 90's, Thailand and lenses, etc

Obviously the protectionist crowd would take issue with all this, but free trade theory is studied and applied all over in trade agreements, specialization zones (like Shenzen), etc. Generally speaking though, the cost of attempting to be self sufficient in everything (like semiconductor manufacturing) means closing borders to competitors outside, which eventually leads to inferior product. With robust competition, the consumer usually wins on both quality and price. Obviously there are other consequences, such as job migration etc. In general though, everyone is lifted up and made richer over time (evident by the fact that there is quantitatively less poverty in the world today and the 1960's and even the most poor can enjoy things like cellphones, leather jackets, and shoes that fit well that even the kings of a century ago could not). The system isn't perfect, but atleast in my eyes it is the one that does the most good for the most people.
As far as any of your reliability concerns, my experience with ZFS has been that it is amazingly reliable.

If I had to pick one place to put precious data that I needed to access for 10-20 years, ZFS would be it. Of course, I wouldn't put it in one place, so if I picked places to put that data, ZFS would definitely be one of them.

I've been using ZFS for over a decade, both for my personal storage systems and for work (largely backup servers), and despite heavy use and abuse, I've never once had data loss while using it. I've had some white-knuckle times, but in the end ZFS was able to recover all the data.

I say "abuse" because I was able to write a stress test program based on my usage that uncovered several ZFS+FUSE issues early in that port.

Just a data point.
> The product promises to store everything encrypted; data is instantly written to an encrypted personal sqlite db on the cloud (you alone have the decryption key, it's not saved in the server)

It's not really clear where does the encryption/decryption happen in this scenario (client/server).

Any way, in my app (https://github.com/zadam/trilium), I encrypt on the client (not the whole database, on a per-note basis), sync with the server already encrypted data when internet is available (fine granularity so small and fast sync) and search happens completely on the client (which has full offline database and decryption key).

As a self hosted app encryption protects against a bit different threats so encryption is done only on request for particular notes (since it implies annoying "enter password").

“Seeing a partial eclipse bears the same relation to seeing a total eclipse as kissing a man does to marrying him.” - Annie Dillard
There is evidence that the linear no threshold model both over estimates and under estimates the increase in cancer deaths among humans.

The disagreement stems in part from the extremely high rate of cancers and thus precancerous tissue among people which means than some tissue is unusually vulnerable. This is supported by skin cancer rates. The opposite conclusion is based on cellular responses to low level radiation exposure, which may provide protection from future exposure.

If it was actually clear LNT was a bad model we would be using something else, but it’s not obvious which direction it should be updated. Presumably, the reality is some non linear effect relating to lifetime exposure for radiation and other cancer risks, but collecting accurate data is difficult.

At the start of my career, I had some bad tendencies in both writing and programming. I delighted in being clever. I was eager to demonstrate my knowledge and ability. I was more concerned with having fun while writing than serving the reader.

Indeed. The reliability of the system depends on the reliability of the block storage. There are many flaky solutions and many good solutions, and they are unrelated as to whether or not you are using containers.
The major companies in Silicon Valley are already facing legislative scrutiny right now (Tim Apple testified in front of Congress a couple weeks ago and looked shocked at the revelations being thrown at him —I am guessing he will be firing a whole lot of people who must have known about that stuff, but forgot to mention it during their briefings). In addition, there are publicly announced anti-trust investigations underway by the Exexutive branch in US, EU, Russia and beyond. Sure there will be fines for past deeds, but they can shut it all down by allowing users to shop at any app store they want.
The problem is the risk of being sued into oblivion by Oracle. Which currently doesn't exist thanks to CDDL patent protection clauses.

It's your life. Follow your dreams, as they say. 15 years is a good long time. I am well over a decade older than you and I'm planning my next career after I retire in 10-ish years.

I'll throw another tip in here: stay in excellent physical shape. It'll help fight any perceived ageism that comes along. I by no means look young: I am wrinkled and my head is very salt-and-pepper and my beard is pretty much white at this point. But I am in excellent shape - better perhaps all of my peers. And so the ageism thing doesn't seem to be an issue. As a bonus, you'll enjoy life more and probably live longer. STAY FIT. In a few years, it'll get much harder to do so.

After I put Pihole on the network, wife's kindle was almost immediately the biggest offender.

That said, the article appears to list activity type ( which is problematic in itself -- time stamp + person is reading now ). I can see a legitimate use for it, but I also hate the idea of being profiled in that way.

To be perfectly honest, Kindle does not seem to pull more than average Android phone ( thought that is problematic in itself ).
>You'd have to figure out some kind of secure key sharing mechanism between phones, tablets, web browsers, and e-readers.

Yeah, it's not like Amazon can afford security experts to work on this or anything.

>Or, you can trust that a position in a book (bookmarks, notes, etc.) is not sensitive information that really needs to be encrypted.

This is an ignorant position that has been proven wrong over, and over, and over again. Private data should be secure by default, because otherwise eventually someone will figure out how to abuse it. This is a lesson form bazillion fraud schemes and social engineering hacks everyone in tech should have learned by now.
This comment is such cowed boot-licking of a giant corporation. Completely antithetical to the hacker ethos.
Apple is paying better margins than that. Apple funds R&D of new processes for TSMC. If you put a 600% markup on that, apple might just go build their own fab and put you out of business.
It's pretty much on the money. Infrastructure and preparedness are the real factors of surviving a hurricane. A majority of new houses and buildings in FL are now cement or steel construction in response to Andrew and then the 2004 hurricanes. Wood construction is not popular anymore.

One country having nuclear weapons means that they can prevent all of what you propose with mere threats. If a few your planes are in position to drop paratroopers or bombs, they can and will threaten to nuke your capital in retaliation the moment the first commando or bomb gets dropped; and the expected result is that you will fold.

You can't bomb much of vital military infrastructure if your own infrastructure - not only airfields, but also population centres - have been nuked. Your bombers can drop a single full payload, after which they will have no bases left where they can return to reload. I mean, we have Cold War studies of all of that - the only way to ensure that bombers really have the ability to bomb enemy infrastructure was to ensure that they are up in the air patrolling, or alternatively scramble to launch within minutes of an alert, since an hour after the start of WW3 you only have a single strike with the airforce that you have in the air.

You can't demoralise the enemy by "making them understand that the war will be long, hungry, and ugly" because the war will end in a single day, after which half of your population will be dead, and the other half in need of food, electricity and supplies. Sure, you will have people willing and able to defend the country, but nobody will be invading; but after being on the receiving end of a nuclear strike your ability to deploy and supply a massed overseas invasion is destroyed, so you're not a meaningful threat anymore, the conflict is over.

Nuclear deterrent is the ultimate defensive weapon because it ensures that any war is unwinnable for the attacker - if the attack fails, then it fails, but if the attack succeeds, there's no good response to an ultimatum to accept ceasefire or have your cities nuked. All your soldiers and commanders know that if they invade and win, then their families and their homeland will die anyway.
Happens here too, as others have pointed out.

Just yesterday an article that went in depth on all different kinds of atmospheric water harvesting was filled with comments on how this was 'debunked', despite some of the methods being used in practice (notably fog harvesting).

Moreover, the article was discussing emerging changes in the technology and the hurdles they would face (it's almost always energy!) but none of the comments seemed to discuss that at all.

TSMC is already a major Apple partner, Apple had no reason to start a talent war here. Remember, Apple squeezes suppliers and labor (wage fixing from the Steve Jobs days).

They only build their own stuff when they see a competitive advantage to doing so — when IBM stopped delivering on chip efficiency or when Intel’s chips started stagnating.

I understand that, as a consumer, you don't want to be bothered to know all the implications of your choices, if you had to make them, so you're happy to delegate them to Apple.

But who's to say that Apple has your interests in mind, and not their own, and makes a choice for you that is actually detrimental to you and beneficial to them? Let's say, by locking you in, and preventing any competition.
