The difference is that the examples you give directly facilitate a financial transaction, whereas Apple's situation is much closer to a tax where they charge a high fee just because they have the power to do so.
That story is about teenagers, which kind of reinforces the GP's point. It's good though!
The studies fail to make a connection from the experience of kids to racist behavior later in life.

I would guess the planned resolution is to subject kids to reaction tests to attest some form of bias and if some of them show signs of behavior deviation, further corrective measure should be taken. This is something the field of psychology often failed at, so the connection to racist behavior should at least be mandatory to make a guideline in good conscience.

"Colorblindness" seems to work for most non-racist people, mostly the whole world that isn't engaged in conflicts where ethnicity is the main factor. So the exact deficiency of this approach would also need to be formulated.
Even if monotonic improvements to near bug-free complex software were actually feasible, it might be difficult to persuade legal systems that they should be treated that way.

In real world regulatory environments, Boeing's patch to its MCAS system - which was tractable and trivially simple compared with teaching a software program how to react safely to certain types of human behaviour whilst leaving behaviour in other situations unchanged - is undergoing months of testing and the fleet has been grounded for over a year.

It could be worse. You could be a millionaire, have sacrificed good years of your life and your health, and realise that happiness was achievable on a shoestring all along.

We’re sold a lie from the get-go, a lovely orange carrot dangling just in front of us. Very occasionally a lucky donkey catches the carrot, because the stick broke or somesuch - but the carrot is made of wood.

This is why we have billionaires. They’re the fools who didn’t know when to quit, chewing on wooden carrot after wooden carrot, insisting they’re delicious. More and more and more and never ever enough - because material wealth is good for satisfying your fundamental needs, but once it’s done that, the marginal utility diminishes rapidly, and you derive limited satisfaction from it.

As you say, be ok with you. Be happy in this moment and that moment, however it comes - being alive is enough - ask any cancer patient.
Well, this is a silly take. It's like saying getting a splinter and being impaled by a 2x4 aren't radically different.
This is key. I would recommend anyone to go to a poorer area in the world and meet the locals... they value things you take for granted so much more.

It made me value things I take for granted much more... like running water... or streets that don't stink like trash... family... I took them for granted.
> Perhaps I'm just not aware of where to go for appliance parts.

Usually the manufacturer has them, though they may optimize for selling to service professionals, and these days there tend to be third-party sellers more focussed on consumers, as well (and you can often get parts on Amazon.)

IME, getting the right part number is often the hardest thing, though usually docs available from the manufacturer (even for units no longer sold) can be downloaded that provide this, and lots of time searching by description and appliance model can find the part, too.
Wow, just today I learned I can control my monitor via software and it worked. All this time I've just dealt with the brightness since I game on it and use dark themes to mitigate the white flashing. Besides that it takes a while to adjust and my monitor's on a flimsy mount and so I hate to have to move touch it. I'm going to hotkey it and have a one-button solution now. Thanks to your comment and to OP's.

I don’t understand why they haven’t arranged an iOS “blackout” for an hour or two in protest. Mildly inconveniencing all iPhone users even for a short while would surely cause Apple to change its tune.

I think the right line to draw is: "Would the general public be surprised that this cost is included, or by its magnitude, or by the impact on price paid by buyer or price received by seller as compared to other payment or purchasing methods?" Or, looking at this from another angle, "Is there a widely applicable ban on disclosing the fees which is in practice harming the ability of consumers to make properly informed purchasing decisions?"

There's no way to draw a perfect line between forced disclosure for transparency purposes and respecting the right of companies to set their own policies. But I'm okay with imperfection, since that's all that reality offers.
You won't be able to. Minimum volume orders are a thing.
No, I'm not going to bother.

I appear to be the highest ranked woman on Hacker News. It has failed to get me significant career contacts or substantial income. I have not eaten today. I have 50 cents to my name. I was homeless for nearly six years.

I am shitposting on HN because I am too hungry, tired and out of sorts to do anything better and I am sick to death of trying to point out the obvious to people who absolutely do not want to hear it.

Anecdotally: I was a homemaker for years. I have six years of college and lots of evidence that I'm competent. I cannot turn it into a "career" or adequate income.

My ex got to take his lovely resume and keep working and he bought a house and remarried and yadda. Because the years he spent working at his career while I cooked his meals and raised our kids is something he can bank on and I can't.
Well all those arguments could be made about slave trade to. People made money, investors liked it. Surely it brought value to the society.

I agree it is easier said than one. First microstop would be trying to get a professional diagnosis.
policing apps is not left to oligarchies. It's a crime to install malware on someone's machine, and it is enforceable. But sometimes you as an individual want a "pre-crime" agency, and maybe it's best not to have the "pre-crime" agency be the state. And that's why, for better or worse, we have mallcops and neighborhood patrols.
Also, the article you quoted treats energy density as the only deciding factor when choosing energy storage.

It ignores both the cost and environmental damage of each energy source.

If we discover a way to extract energy from little kittens more efficiently than from oil, according to you we should start building kitten farms for fuel. This is absurd :)
Yes, blacklisting html tags instead of whitelisting (or parsing into some abstract form and reserializing) is a world of pain and very hard to get right.

You can take it into consideration when starting a new project. I wouldn’t use a C++ framework because of security reasons and Rust if I don’t have access to enough rust programmers, but ASP.NET Core seems pretty reasonable.
It's a bit more complicated, and the facile 'luddite' retort doesn't help.

Humans need something to do. In times immemorial, something to do entails running around the savanna looking for edible scraps, collecting them, bringing them home and raising the next generation to repeat the process. A perfect machine that produces and delivers edible scraps with zero human effort required leaves actual humans with nothing to do. Having nothing to do is spiritually unsustainable. There is so much leisure or travel. There is so much make-believe work. After a while though, people will need something meaningful to do, something that undeniably pushes the inexorable wall of unbeing a bit further.

This is exacerbated by social effects. We confer value to other people by their ability to provide meaningful work. Assuming a perfect machine that does all the meaningful work, there is zero reason to confer value to any other human being. This is a recipe for disaster, and will hit us much sooner than the angst of nothing to do.
If VISA or MC or AMEX would charge 30% they'd be out of business instantly, on a typical purchase that's all of the profit margin. The only reason Apple gets away with it is because they are virtual goods.

The thing you could compare it with is Telco's fees for using their billing mechanism for virtual purchases.
This send to be a common thing that Apple does. I read an article recently about how some had a lot of unwritten rules but uses it's vaguely written public rules to enforce them, as is happening in this case. "Irrelevant" is an entirely subjective term.

The real question is, if Apple don't want to an app to talk about the 30% cut, why is there not a rule that explicitly states that?
Do you mean the mrsp?

That doesn’t tell you retailer vs. wholesaler vs. manufacturer share.
Well in this Apple governed App store 'State' the act of violence is the forced removal of an app (a shop) from being allowed to operate, and in some case (Epic Games), completely banning the citizen from the State, let's call that Jail since Apple again may set them free, again, at their discretion.

This App Store ecosystem sits at over 1.5 billion inhabitants, larger than China.

Frankly, state tax is the perfect word to use.
What a strange, but interesting, idea!

The broader idea here is that there are probably an infinite number of creative ways -- to measure different aspects of what software does, and to instrument that output in different creative ways that can be experienced via human senses (in this case, via sound).
Because those women haven't been arrested by the police and put to death by the state. They are free to move away, get almost any job man can, and remarry.

If a husband tries to prevent her from that, she can get aid from friends and the state to resist.

Are 1 and 100 both numbers? Test. But they aren't close.
Death by a thousand cuts instead of just one is still death. It is also torture instead of mere execution.
The real beneficiary is that they will reap the benefits from the success but well, VCs are either well off already or reckless. It may technically sway the statistics of the upper ends distribution ans shows it isn't a defacto ethnic segregation but means about as much as Queen Victoria to the status of women. Technically a good thing but not very relevant to most of the minority.
This is a hugely important point and much of the reason I chose a wheeled or tracked robot over a legged one for a project I’m working on. My workplace is supposed to be accessible, and to the degree that it isn’t, my workplace is federally required to fix it. So in some ways adding a tracked/wheeled robot to the mix could also help us find ways to make our workplace more welcoming for wheelchair users. As a mobility platform, a wheeled/tracked platform is more efficient, more open (less overhead), probably more robust (doesn’t fall over of power is lost mid-stride), an order of magnitude less costly, and it may even enhance workplace accessibility. Win-win.
Inflation is good for debtors. Hyperinflation here is a total exaggeration.
It gets even more ridiculous if you consider that there are cases with price bindings (e.g. books) or small not very flexible margins (per song buying of music) and apple is them self competing in this area without this cuts.

Similar ridiculous is that they effective prevent apps which just provide the service for existing member without any payment/sign-up services in the apple app.

This is a active intrusion on the free marked undermining the fundamental concepts of it (choice and transparency).
At least in my opinion.

printf is only problematic when you have attacked controlled data in the format string. Using a literal is perfectly safe and the intended usage.
Do you think the people you're describing represent any kind of norm?
Facebook decided to fight it in the court of public opinion rather than go all in like Epic, despite having probably stronger ground to do so. I find it hard to imagine Apple terminating Facebook's developer account over this had they persisted with the notice (or simply put in something saying "event purchases are not allowed on Apple devices due to Apple's mandatory 30% processing charge.")
Mine too, but I’m already familiar enough with Emacs that I don’t need it, and in general most things in Emacs are scrollable and you can recognize them as such once you’ve used it for a while.

It would not be the right choice for a default config, or in a context where sometimes things are scrollable and sometimes they aren’t. (This is often the case on mobile phones; if there’s no scroll bar, the only way to tell if something is scrollable is to try it, if you think to.)
It's pretty far off from other forms of slavery as well. The slaves in Saudi Arabia are the foreign domestic workers, like in pretty much all Arab countries.

It's an underdeveloped culture, women don't have equal rights by any means, but it's not slavery. Continuously reaching for superlatives just makes the terms useless.
I gave some proof and I’m speaking from experience. I grant that my perspective my be biased so if there is any data to the contrary then I would love to be enlightened. My goal isn’t to point out if someone is wrong for the sake of it, I hope to teach, learn or both. This was such a shocking revelation to me that I was hoping for some data.
I really like Happiness = Reality - Expectations.

Advocating for low expectations is usually criticized as laziness when targeted at oneself or pessimism when targeted at others. But I think that criticism happens when we conflate expectations and aspirations, when we set our target as our baseline.

On that note, exercising gratitude (counting your blessings) is a wonderful tool for teasing apart expectations and aspirations. Acknowledging that something you have is good enough to make you happy implicitly informs you that expectations have already been exceeded even if you aspire for more.

I agree on all but the last point. Having to wait for a week to get another chapter after each of Monte Cristo cliffhangers would be more intensive experience than binging on the book.

It's partly delayed gratification, but it's also having something in your week schedule to look forward to. I experienced similar thing with Planetarium (https://www.beholder.uk/planetarium/) and I'd recommend it to anyone.
Does that mean they automatically work for almost nothing? This is so different from what I’ve observed. I would love to see where people are getting this opinion from.
Yes, wine underlies proton, but Proton makes it accessible for those who don't have the time/desire to debug games individually.

Proton "Just Works(tm)", whereas vanilla Wine takes setup.

> Honestly though, a lot of games are now native for linux. There are very few games that I need wine for nowadays (and there is no game that I want but can't play)

I have to agree here. Almost every game I play can run natively.
I don't think your example is right, it will be more, if you buy this box of cookie, Visa will take 25 cents + 3%, the grocery bank will take 2%, etc.
Here Apple enforce that you do not have to create an account with Facebook to purchase goods and services on Facebook. That people can use their Apple ID, then that's a 30% cut.

Facebook want saying they could pay less. They were saying, if you pay $10, $7 goes to the event, $3 goes to apple.

It didn't say "go to this other website and just pay $7". I think it's totally reasonable to disclose the fees, I would even argue that it's the morally correct thing to do.
You just made me laugh hard. Good job :D
Actually I first saw it on a plane and wondered how we have gotten to this stage where obviously garbled video is ok to give to paying customers. Yes, more bits will solve this, bit it’s still a great example that breaks encoding assumptions.
This may be a spot where regulation would be to the advantage of the consumer.
> Introducing pure black into a color palette without being thoughtful can throw off the balance

But my point is precisely that this is incorrect, that there is nothing special about #000.

In reality, let's say your other #888 color is giving off 54 units of luminence according to some measure. And maybe your #111 gives off 8 units of luminence and your #000 appears to have 6 units of luminence because of ambient reflection and diffusion. There is nothing special about those 6 units of luminence. You're still far away from 0 units of luminence.

> it would be rare to see colors with that sort of contrast side-by-side in nature.

This is also not correct. Our eyes interpret a gigantic range of contrast. What any screen can produce is a tiny fraction of that. We see far, far, far more contrast side-by-side in nature than we can on any computer screen.

> For waze’s case, I supposed their priority is not on salvaging the 1% longest request (though critical to you), and instead preserve server resources for the 99% faster clients.

What resources? Buffering a response takes a minuscule amount, and if even a tiny fraction of people try again it will waste far more.

And even if it did take more in total, it would not be by much. This justification for saying it's not a wrong value is very weak.
"Taken to the cleaners" means "forced to maintain the same economic arrangement as during the marriage".

Polygamists in the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints have done this in recent years, in Canada and the US. Can't remember dude's name who married his 12 year-old step daughter, but they're out there. Yes, in "western society".
I really don't understand why you're getting downvoted, Doreen.

I am getting downvotes because anytime a woman tells Western men they don't treat their women as wonderfully as they like to imagine, they kick the living crap out of her and let her know she needs to SFTU because women have it so very good here. It's par for the course.
How do these compare to the IPC standards? Redundant?
Yes, that is definitely a saying. Not sure that it's appropriate here. If you think the plight of women in America is even remotely akin to the plight of women in SA, then I don't know what to say. There probably can't be a productive conversation if two people have such radically different understandings of reality.
Even for the app - if its a cost argument, then allow others to compete on a cost basis. Of course, apple will not let you set up your own app store with the same guarantees that apple provides around privacy security etc. If its a discovery and cost of marketing argument than I dont understand the perpetuity of payments, you can pay a first time purchase fee but subscriptions afterwards should not have any fees tacked on.

> In fact, the people who are most motivated at work are often most motivated to arrange the after-work get together, or the weekend trip for the group of friends, or to invite people over for home-cooked meals so we can catch up.

There seems to be a kind of phenomenon, like being in the zone but much longer (weeks at a time instead of hours), where you have an extreme drive to do everything you have to and want to do, a drive to live. I've only experienced it twice, in what I fondly remember as the most productive weeks in my life. And in those times, I'd juggle ridiculous amount of work with social occasions and wandering around, with no problem and a lot of happiness.

I wish I knew how to reproduce it, because these were also what I remember as the happiest of times. I suspect the people you mention are in this mode constantly. I wish I knew what's their secret. And not because I have a desire to be a workaholic or something - but I'd like to feel again those infinite amounts of energy and sheer will to make things happen.

Hah it's good to suffer with company.

Re unixy engineering stuff, I'm still a young engineer, the only thing I can think of is that I learn the most when I shoehorn it in during work, if I have time. So recently there was a fat data modification task, turn a bunch of CSV stuff into arrays and escaped strings etc, and rather than try to figure out how to have sheets do it which probably would have been easier and faster, I used it as an opportunity to upskill my vim knowledge. Picked up a couple new commands. That's only when I don't have a crazy deadline looming though sadly.
