Biden said last night that China is a 'competitor' and Russia is an 'opponent'. Not sure that makes him pro-China. It's possible he thinks breaking all ties and increasing tariffs are the wrong way to go about dealing with China.

Tariffs may look good in the short term, but China thinks long term. They only have to wait 4 years, and they can probably get EOs/tariffs changed or rolled back. Long term changes happen from deepening Chinese relationships and passing laws.
Yeah the antenna footprint is actually that one provided by ti.

I frankly think Zuckerberg started out as a “good” guy. When you think about connecting the world it sounded great at the time, what could be better than more contact with more people? Especially when you can make billions of dollars doing it.

Then it turns out that people are horrible and that over-connecting them can be fatally destructive. To deal with his cognitive dissonance at building something of nuclear-weapons-bad level, he became the comic book villain that we know today.
How about hating the player and the game?

The game is shit, yeah. But so's this anyone who enthusiastically said "yes, I would like to find ways to monetize people's desire to talk with each other, and do not care in the least if this involves being paid to spread disinformation, or making ad view money off of pushing people towards insane viewpoints".

Yes, this includes Google. This includes Twitter. This includes every damn online service that decides its primary customer is advertisers, not users.
While I know it is not significant, me personally as a small developer am no longer going to use any Apple services which can leave me "exposed" and "surrender" my self to the Almighty Apple.

Mostly, and I know I am not alone, that whole fiasco where Apple threatened to shut down Epic users who used Sign-In with Apple (regardless of which side is lying) has completely turned me 180 on that feature, where I am now actively avoiding to implement Sign-In with Apple in my apps.

I am quite aware that I am going to lose some users to that decision, I am more than willing to accept it, since that path is too dangerous for me to take after seeing how much power Apple has.

I only hope that others will also follow in that decision. Also, I am just waiting patiently for the EU hammer to hit Apple swiftly, it would be about damn time.
Sure, but it also an increasingly common pain point, especially when combine with e-commerce dark patterns. I see a clear market demand for solving it. Busy parents may not have a comprehensive understanding of what the technology enables and what they need to restrict, when its one of 3-4 different platforms in their house, all subtly broken.

This is often missed by technology enthusiasts that evaluate a merits of a platform from their own individual point of view that prizes flexibility and lack of constraints over everything else.
Of course people would stop using Instagram. A major app provably spying on you from your camera is an extremely big deal, and is something every non-tech user can easily understand.

The truth is though that as in ~100% of such sensationalist headlines there is nothing alarming in what the app is doing, which is why users don't care.

If all the original author had done was ask for evidence for the claim, it would be completely fair that the burden of proof was entirely on the parent commenter to which they replied based on our social standards. However, they themselves made a specific claim that the parent commenter was wrong and did nothing to back it up. As such a burden of proof was on them as well at that point for the exact same reason.

The market also isn't as volatile as people make it out to be. The top most used js frameworks (React, Angular and Vue) have been in the top spots for 5 to 7 years now. I guess the market might as well be settled. Of course there are some new comers every year, but they don't enjoy a large market share. Hell, I've not even seen VueJS used once in any serious project in the industry.

React and Angular are here to stay, and there's no changing that.

The thing is, we know the DNC was hacked. We know that Podesta was a victim of spear phishing. The timing of the attack also lines up with the release of emails.

"but that it's happening by people not under control of the US elite"

Wow, no. This is not it.

Facebook is not interested in influencing the outcomes of elections, and the US Gov is not using FB to do so directly - other than to ban egregious misinformation and to allow any legit actor to participate.

WeChat/TikTok are organs of the state - they can and are used at will by CCP organs for censorship, control, monitoring etc. - for any reason, at any time, at any whim.

The moral equivalence arguments being made are simply out of touch with the operational realities of companies in the China vs. US/Europe etc..
Is apple legally bound to not track users or something?

Otherwise I'm not sure how this is a solution to the problem; apply tracking you or Facebook, it's all the same. Sure apple might not track you now, but their priorities can change
I don't have a great answer for you but I'll give it a shot. It sounds like you're trying to get from a basic understanding of analog circuits to understanding the makeup of a simple processor (e.g. the Z80).

The general progression is:

1. Circuit Theory (how fundamental components work)

2. Semiconductors(diodes, transistors, op-amps [skip those for now])

3. Digital Electronics (basic logic gates and boolean algebra)

Once you finish learning about digital electronics you should have the fundamental knowledge to understand how a basic processor might operate. A reasonably good place to start might be here.

Read Volume 1, Volume 3 (skip chapters 7-13), and Volume 4. That should get you up to speed reasonably quickly.

Those people and studios are currently still able to release games written with the Unreal Engine and will continue to be able to do so regardless of the outcome of this situation unless Epic decides that they want to continue violating the guidelines of the platform.

Webpack doesn't support actual, statically checked tree shaking for now. There is a parameter called ''sideEffects'' you can employ in your package.json, which if switched to off gives hints to the compiler that your code is side-effect free and can thus be eliminated if not used.

I definitely agree that having a good understanding of git's internals is a must for using it to its full potential. I'm not sure you have to go as far as implementing it yourself, but it is a sure fire way to get there. For me it didn't all click into place until I understood the data model behind git[1]. A git project is just one big DAG of objects, and each object at its core is either a blob, a tree, or a commit. When you understand that, you can start to view every git command for what they actually are, a sequence of operations on this data structure.

Good points and agree that "sign-in with Apple" is not a great match in many cases. And the developer is fighting an uphill battle against Apple who wants to be the required middleman in the relationship of the developer and the user.
China's already a world superpower imposing its value system onto the world.

You beat that by having a better value system, and in theory, The value system in the United States is one of freedom of speech and association.

You are mixing streams here.

First - you mean 'graft' not 'grift'.

Second - Trump's indicating that 'the US should get a cut' is just ridiculous and bizarre. He's not getting a cut, so it's not really 'graft' - but it just plays into his deal-making instinct that the US 'is a player and ought to get a piece'. He's just blatantly ignorant. There is 0% chance of this happening, there are 0 people in his circle that would ever conceive of such a thing, it's just one of those 'Trump things' they smile and ignore.
Apple’s argument is that Epic forced this action by violating their contract. Epic will respond that the contract is unfair and illegal, and Apple’s treatment of different developers under the contract is inconsistent. It ends up being a conversation about who you favor in the Apple vs Epic fight, and not really a falsifiable factual question.

I never understood how folks end up with 20+ (100+ !?) tabs just hanging around ALL the time.

I get there sometimes, but never in the same window.

I maintain multiple web sites, so each site has its own desktop. Plus there's another desktop for one-off tasks, and one for communicating (e-mail, etc...).

Within each desktop is a browser window, which may have five or six tabs. If I'm doing testing, that number balloons. But only while testing.

So between all the sites and tabs, I may have 50 or 60 tabs. But since they are kept in different browser windows on different desktops, they're manageable.
Sure, you can use HBS (or even vanilla) to render a piece of dynamic HTML. That's not really the problem these libraries are solving.

You could also create your own components with HBS templates and figure out how compose them to render a tree of components. That's not too hard to figure out either.

The problem is really in updating the DOM when state changes somewhere in your application. In the jQuery days we had tons of micro DOM managing code so that when some variable changed then we would update some piece of the DOM by "hand". But as your project grows this becomes a mess pretty quickly.

Another solution could be to simply re-render everything and update all the DOM on every frame with a state change. That would simplify your code but it would probably be extremely inefficient.

The point of libraries like Vue, React, Svelte, etc, is about simplifying the production of sophisticated UIs, as efficiently as possible, so you can focus on the right abstraction instead of the implementation details (eg: managing the DOM).

Every library takes a very different approach. If you're coming from the vanilla/jQuery world the learning curve can be pretty steep. But, as someone who has been doing web frontend for 20 years, I think the price of admission is worth it.

IMO Vue is probably the easiest one to get into. You can get started by simply including it in a script tag as if you were using jQuery.

> A post from someone who works in marketing about how "that's where the audience is so we have to give them money".

> Personal story about eerily accurate targeting.

> Personal story about how the targeting is totally inaccurate.

> Humblebrags about how long ago one hasn't used Facebook - "I haven't used Facebook since 1914, when the Kaiser went to war."

Uh, I don't agree with your statement at all.
The sending of malware part might be to get files served from a somewhat more trusted (and less likely to be blocked) domain. No matter how many files you sent through it, it was much less likely to get blocked at the DNS level by Quad9, OpenDNS, DNSFilter, etc. than some random compromised website. There's also a real incentive to having files retrievable only once, because if someone downloads the file and AV kills it, that email can't be passed along to someone so they can get their own clean copy for analysis.

As for how to identify it, because files were being encrypted before sending that probably was being done by seeing how much the service ended up in spam/phishing attempts - they may well have been able to get that information from filtering software vendors.
Let's also remember that Epic didn't just breach the contract.

They made a detailed plan, in advance, to breach the contract, and prepared attack ads against Apple to run immediately after their planned breach, and they prepared a detailed PR attack agenda to unleash as well.

If I were Apple, I'd be tempted to unleash hell and completely destroy Epic over this. That's what Epic deserves.
