Given how long it took to catch him, after years of outrageous purchases and shady business dealings, it makes me wonder if frauds are much more common than conventional wisdom would lead one to believe.
Perhaps they should check the grammar on their article before they post it:

"They also do a literature review of existing work in word meanings, making in very clear they were building on the existing work in anthropology and linguistics. "

> Why? Because having Apple in control of the device is valuable to me. VERY valuable. It's the big reason why I willingly pay more for Apple phones.

You can give Apple initial (and practically temporary if you do not want to take it back) control over the device without actually forcing everyone else to do the same.

> I would have simply bought a different product.

What if you liked everything Apple does except the part about not allowing you to install 3rd party applications?

> That's like asking why...

As i wrote in other posts, these comparisons 99.9% of the time miss important details so they're not helpful. E.g...

> ... diesel engine, a manual transmission and the ability to crawl up boulders.

...these having nothing to do with iOS allowing users to install applications from outside the App Store.
Are these requests sent to a separate domain? I may have missed it in the article but it’d be great to know whether we could null route these without disrupting functionality.
How's this not possible? You can _choose_ which appstore to use, if there are multiple, and stick to the original Apple one and preserve what you currently have. For apps not released on the Apple Store, you can choose not to use them, exactly like you are asking others to do by not allowing to have multiple appstores.

good point: "see" even by itself works, but i had lots of Latin so didn't think of it.
Fascinating investigation and good article.

But this doesn't actually surprise anybody, right?
Though I haven't analyzed other devices (because I don't own them), they could easily have similar issues. I personally really want an open e-ink device, but I haven't seen one for sale unfortunately. For now, I do Calibre ODPS server with Marvin app on a phone, but it doesn't really compare.
The claim as I drew it from “Midnight in Chernobyl” by Adam Higginbotham (I don’t know if a popular non-fiction book meets your evidentiary standard, I just happen to have finished reading it) is that the public damage and cost from Chernobyl was so unprecedented and spectacular in scope that it was impossible for the Soviet government to cover it up. And that what makes this remarkable is how this incident compared to other past incidents (not to mention purposeful engineering efforts) that the Soviet government had successfully managed to cover up and keep from the population. In other words, “exposed the dysfunction of the system” is accurate, but also incomplete. It omits the reason why this particular disaster, and not other disasters, was the trigger that caused this reckoning.

And the book makes a compelling case for why Chernobyl was so important and so different. I will leave it to experts to tell me whether it’s wrong.
There may well be a mechanism by which fire increases redwood germination, but coast redwoods produce many, many viable seedlings without fire.

My mother was a child in Poland during the Chernobyl disaster. In her family nobody has a history of cancer but she had breast cancer. And a lot of other health issues. Coincidence? Maybe.

""On mobile, using menu to search in browser menus" -> This is not a sentence. " -> Sorry, I meant using the browser search feature by invoking it from the contextual menu of your browser, which is the only way to spawn the search toolbar on mobile.

" but the reality is that i HAVE to implement search because it is hitting on 730000 per year records;" -> True, there should be a search feature with a backend API.

"Again, you are too happy about your opinion that you spite it out like truth without even understanding specs."

Yes I want too far, your use case does require extra logic, because it's not good to send that much data to the user.
I'm not pushing a workflow, im not a front end dev, but i do maintain frontend apps sometimes, i'm simply angry at React, because it cause pain to me as an user.

It's noticably slower (https://medium.com/dailyjs/a-realworld-comparison-of-front-e...).

The virtual list may be required for your use case, but as a user, I often met virtual list:

- Used for less than 100 elements

- ctrl f is not hooked on the 'webapp search feature'

- the 'webapp search feature' is noticably slower than the browser.

Also, here some reading, from a framework I don't use, about the virtual dom:

https://svelte.dev/blog/virtual-dom-is-pure-overhead

Now, not as an user, but as a software engineer, my soul cry when I see the architecture principle of such a framework fixed with a workaround.
This looks like a really nice and polished app, thanks for releasing it!

Is there an option to only generate the yaml instead of generate and deploy altogether? This would allow me to create a lot of boilerplate while still having the option to fine tune the configurations if needed.

I also didn't see any information on rollbacks.

I have a 100-line Python script that I wrote that runs hourly via cron. It scours my apache access log and counts up the number of times each referrer has shown up in the past hour. If it's above a threshold, it emails me with the referrer names in order. So I just get email that basically say: "Hey you're on hacker news" or "Hey check this reddit thread" or whatever.
> This makes total sense to me. Simple language makes room for complex ideas.

My takeaway is slightly different: simple words (familiar) are easier to digest than big words (unfamiliar) because familiar words will be parsed very quickly for most people than unfamiliar words.

I prefer to use the categorization of “familiar” vs “unfamiliar” because the categorization of a word as “big” or “simple” depends largely on the reading ability of the person making the assessment.
Not sure why you've been downvoted. You're 100% correct. Language evolves. And old duffers like me, don't.
I can't find a reference to it now, but I recently read something referencing the massive quantities of kindle data amazon give you when making a GDPR data subject access request. I think it was something like 100k rows of data for one user.

Perhaps I should do that myself.

Edit: You can request your kindle data here (UK version): https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/privacycentral/dsar/preview.html
I was quoted on a 30 year fixed rate mortgage at 2.62% APR with no pre-payment penalty (locked in at the mortage dip). Plan to pay it off in a fraction of the time, but it gives quite a safety net at such a low rate I couldn't pass it up.

15 year mortgages were even lower (2.38% APR at the time) but I didn't want to gamble too much with COVID uncertainties (for all we know this pandemic could ride on 2-5 years).

If you're fairly financially solid and looking at real-estate, it's not a terrible time. My agent also offered a COVID plan free which declares my agent's agency will re-list and resell the property for me at no cost should I desire within one year (obviously, I'd lose any difference in value should the the market value decline, but if things get truly nasty, I can likely bounce out before the market adapts given how quick sell turnover rates are here). No closing costs would be charged under this case (obviously any require renovations would be my liability).

I should add that my mortage will be less than what I'm currently paying in rent... and in pretty solid tech hub that isn't SF.
Somebody is showing their ignorance of what HTML is.
I don’t know the alternatives, but do know you have software like Calibre in order to keep your book collection despite changing your device.
A reasonable point.
It seems like there are two assumptions underlying your argument:

1. Users have perfect choice in which apps they install.

2. Developers will release their apps on all available app stores.

But many users are compelled to install apps that they would prefer not to and it's not at all obvious that developers would support two app stores instead of one given the choice. The net result of that combination is that some (many?) people would be compelled to use both app stores against their inclination.
Got my mother-in-law a Kobo Forma. Relatively pricey but I was able to walk her through how to check out a book from her local library via Cloud Library & transfer it to her device. Was a life-saver while the physical library was closed due to Covid-19. I was a little concerned as there were complaints about fabrication but her experience has been very positive.

Feels somewhat abandoned at times, but Apple Books is okay.
- I don't think it's fair to compare Apple's position to a "collective bargaining". What they are doing is defending their moat from competing offering, they are defending one of their source of control and revenue. If there would be a bargain, who would be facing them? Developers? If Apple is in position to dictate what they want with no discussions, it's not a bargain.

- Even if other app stores are available (or sideloading, or other potential outcomes that would be more open than the current situation) Apple still control the platform, thus can still impose A LOT of what is possible or not on iOS. If they want to "protect" their users they can continue to do it at that level (there would then be a debate on what is or not considered "anti-competition" at this level)

- Regarding the difference of technical level, yes, I'm more technically inclined. On other systems (such as Android, Windows, and macOS) being more technically knowledgeable means that I can gain more control over my system and take my own decisions. In the world of iOS (potentially also in the future world of macOS), that's not even close to being a possibility.
Been using them for the last couple of months.

They are a nice complement to bodyweight training, allowing you to add some resistance to bodyweight basics like the push-up or the squat (or to add assistance in the case of the pull-up / chin-up )

They are not nearly as good as free weights for certain things though. The strength curve is very different to that of a weight and it's not as easy to progressively overload (ie, add weight to) the exercises over time. You can use thicker bands, change your grip to play with the band tension or perform harder exercises (such as one-arm variations of whatever you're doing), but nothing's nearly as easy as adding heavier plates to a barbell or picking up a heavier dumbbell.

They can be a great complement to other equipment, or if you're fully sold on calisthenics / bodyweight training, they might be everything you'll ever need. If however you're into traditional strength training or bodybuilding, they will fall short fairly quickly (personally, I can't wait to get back under the bar).
i don't think you understand how broad the word "tourism" is. in march, worldwide air travel was down almost 95%. even now it's still down about 60-75%.

these are staggering numbers, that have and will have staggering effects. think how many people go into building, maintaining and flying a simple airbus 320. everyone from airbus, to its engineers, suppliers, everyone on delta, etc., is absolutely impacted if that plane is not flying.

this trickles down into private travel which hits even more well paying jobs that build/maintain/support/fly those aircraft.

travel is simply not some dumpy motel in some dumpy town going out of business, travel/tourism has tremendous implications.
> When people realize their impulsive buys were a mistake.

I think it's unfair to assume people are panic buying houses. The people I know that have purchased a house in the last six months would have purchased a home regardless of the pandemic. In addition, the threat of inflation is real and having a stable housing cost can help with inflation.
I've seen this done on dating profiles before too
I tried them during the lockdown and found the whole experience very frustrating. The force follows Hooke's law and scales linearly. Let's say you take one marked as 14-34kg. Suppose you replace a dumbbell of 24kg. It means that in extremes of your range of motion it is either way too easy or way too hard. Sometimes it is not too bad, If you do shoulder press, you're at your weakest in the bottom. Sometimes it is the other way around and you start craving iron.

I would love to add more about this story in other countries as well. I just ran out of time and steam when writing the US perspective. Give me more time to recharge.

One thing that's nice about the US side for me is that we have vast libraries of technical reports available for me to peruse. It would be impossible for me personally to do such a deep dive in Russia or France or China or any other non-English-publishing place simply because I don't speak the language.

Companies Battle Another Pandemic: Skyrocketing Hacking Attempts
I'm sure someone like me always has the same "hot take" in every thread regarding this, but I honestly still love reading physical books. After spending a day weary of interacting with screens all day, there is something nice about tapping in to this activity that humans have done for hundreds of years. Sure, e-ink is easier on the eyes, but isolating myself with a good book can be a near spiritual experience.
Kobo's have comparable (even superior, IMO) hardware to the Kindle line. The thing that everyone who migrates from Kindle to Kobo seems to get hung up on is that it does not have an option to wirelessly sync books that have been sideloaded across devices. This is because Kobo does not give everyone a private cloud like Amazon does (I imagine it would be prohibitively expensive to do so for anyone but Amazon).

It's not a big deal for me, but apparently it's a dealbreaker for some Kindle refugees that they can't start reading a sideloaded book on their phone and pick up where they left off when they open their Kobo.
Our local library does drive up pick up. Obviously not as instant as a download... but man it is nice to leave the house for a few minutes. Kills two birds with one stone.
What childbirth defects?
Just wait until they learn about the "behavioral reading" data collected by, oh I don't know, virtually every media site on the Internet.
Top Gun the Movie is actually pretty accurate when you look at the last 30 years of "no fly zone" enforcement, which was the mission in the movie.

Many dozens of times over multiple decades in multiple theaters against multiple opponents, the vast majority of stereotypical NFZ engagements have ended in "two american planes primary and wingman have a brief dogfight against enemy aircraft to obtain ideal firing positions, involving visual identification, then end the fight with short range IR guided sidewinder missiles". There are, of course, occasional exceptions but the VAST majority of NFZ aerial combat stories look like this.

Its interesting that for 30 years NFZ ROE documents have been classified and are generally still classified and only rarely can you find an ROE illegally posted on wikileaks. HOWEVER the secret squirrel types seem to have ignored the internet and OSINT in general. So you can't legally find a piece of paper titled RoE describing how visual ID was necessary and BVR generally prohibited for all practical purposes, however, its trivial to read on wikipedia the stories of about a hundred NFZ engagements and then reverse engineer the classified ROE to match the large number of mostly identical individual engagements.

Or to summarize the above, the RoE for NFZ operations for the last 30 years remain classified, although the results of seemingly all air to air engagements have been publicly released, and traditional OSINT techniques applied to hundreds of "isolated" public anecdotes can easily reverse engineer the contents of those classified RoE documents, and the reverse engineered RoE documents pretty much mirror the fight scene at the end of the Top Gun movie; get close, dogfight into missile launch position while performing visual ID, end fight by launching short range IR missiles.
This makes it sound more dramatic than it is.

Let's assume the "real" share of infectious people in the population is 10/100k (That's twice as much as the most recent reported 7-day incidence (5.1/100k) of new infections for Leipzig, the area where the study was performed.)

Further let's assume a PCR Test has a 30% FNR, and a 10% FPR (numbers completely made up, I don't have a source).

Then out of 1500 People who have tested negative, we'd expect 0.05 to have the virus.
Would like to see a similar suggestion for writing in plain German.
I did some research on early Android sending a bunch of data back to Google's servers, a few months later the information was encoded/encrypted before being sent over the wire. I'd be curious if the next app version of Kindle started obfuscating what it was sending back home.
Ah i see, i thought you were comparing employers forcing you to install something with Apple forcing everyone to go through their App Store.

Well, in that case, if employers force you to install something then just tell them give you a work phone. Or talk to them, you are adults.

And if that doesn't work, well, tough luck. This sounds like trying to solve a malfunctioning workplace problem by making everyone else suffer - it isn't my or Apple's or anyone else's problem that your boss forces you to install shady apps.

I have quite often seen people here and on other tech forums assume that purchasing a Kindle means being locked into Amazon's ecosystem, giving up personal details, and having the risk that your books might be deleted. But you don't have to use the Kindle's internet connectivity: I have owned three generations of Kindle, and with each one I activated airplane mode the second I unboxed the device and I never turned airplane mode off. All my ebooks come from sources other than Amazon (mainly LibGen, for example), and they can be easily transferred over to the Kindle by USB because the Kindle appears as any ordinary USB drive to a computer.
Why would you leave on wifi on an e-ink kindle, when not actively downloading a book? The battery lasts 3-4x as long with it disabled (on my 3rd gen device at least).

I doubt most users need a real-time sync of their book location to the cloud, unless they read on multiple devices.

Also, if you use the kindle to get loaned/library books on this particular model, they aren't removed even if the due-date is exceeded until you reconnect to wifi, which has been handy at times...

That sounds like it only solves the very narrow issue of private messages and only while the two users are within direct communication right?

That seems like a relatively easy corner to deal with. What I really want to see is one with meshing, public chats, and open joining (of the public chats, verifying contact names can be done offline). That’s where it starts to be actually useful in protest etc situations where public internet access might not be available.
Yes, it's a pretty general pattern overall: being prepared for an emergency/catastrophe means that you have to spend resources on resilience instead of spending them on development/making more money. When the catastrophes are rare that means the "prepared" ones are outcompeted by the "lean" ones, and so when a black swan finally arrives, bang, everyone's caught naked in the middle of the night.

Looks like a rather typical scenario of a market failure, isn't it? That's why national governments typically have National Emergency Reserves or something like this, but naturally, even they only stockpile really basic and absolutely necessary stuff. Dumbbells ain't one of those things.
This is a bit unfortunate, because the kindle paperwhite is just phenomenal. It's easy on my eyes and it's a godsend for traveling. I suppose the solution here is to just keep it in offline mode when not syncing books.

[edit] as others have noted, it's possible to permanently use offline mode, and transfer books via usb cable.
