It's a bit of both. It can configure itself to be a virtual camera (similar to OBS), which could then be consumed by OBS. It also has built in features for directly streaming to twitch/youtube/etc and skipping OBS entirely. Likely an embrace, extend, and extinguish strategy on their part.
That's not really the same thing. I close the door to the toilet because other people don't want to see it. I close the blinds when reading a book because they do want to see it.
Encapsulated state. In large enough projects, it's easier to throw a new query into a component than to pass the needed information down from an enclosing component. Now "suggested playlist" owns its own reference to video metadata, rather than receiving it from the page root. I don't like this pattern, and it's a downside of component-style development if developers aren't encouraged to lift state.

GraphQL/Apollo and others are supposed to fix this by ensuring that any queries for a given object ID are cached, so if a bunch of different components request overlapping attributes on an object, they are hitting cache.

Without automated caching like this, I typically try to pass all data from the nearest owning data source. For instance, if I was building a video player and needed an attribute on a video object, I would find the nearest parent component that owned the page's video and pass it down from there. But that's not necessarily the typical/preferred way for software projects where tons of people are working on the same page in tandem. Personally, I see a lot of web apps where different components are loading at different times. It doesn't make for a nice experience.

As for people saying "it's not that much data/duplication", sure, but if the requests aren't cached, it could be increasing latency. In the OP, they said all 14 references are from one request, but there still could be duplicated queries in the server logic that is hydrating the data; I don't know how YouTube handles this and didn't look at how the app works. This is something they've likely made opaque to developers with a data fetching cache between the request handlers and the backing data, but it's no guarantee.

If you don't have a caching layer on the client and/or the server, I say be particular about lifting state and passing it into components. It's fun when you can just throw a React component into a page and it works without any hook-up, but it's also easy to pass a few props into a component.
One of the guys behind this hack here. The other is Stefano (and most credit goes to him actually). Would love for everyone to give it a try and help us improve it. I'm working on a few ready-made VMs that you can easily deploy on Raspberry Pi 4 with Project EVE (including Windows 10 VM and Plan9 VM). If you're interested -- drop me a note (I may even be able to do a few bounties/etc. for things we need to improve ASAP). Otherwise -- feel free to ask questions, etc. in this thread. It looks small -- but the whole thing took us a month or so (not full time of course) so there's quite a bit of subtlety there.
I am worried that in most cases, the "maintenance cost" is not a cost but a ticking time bomb.

Since so much complicated software is being rammed into devices and the consumer is ever accustomed to increased ease of use and lack of mental engagement with the technology, they won't ever invest time to maintain the technology that they have in front of them, since understanding it will involve aeons of time due to the systems' complexity and/or lack of documentation. You're then at the mercy of the provider of the technology, who may or may not decide to maintain it at a whim.

I think this is particularly true in cars, where great strides have been made in engine management and "smart" sensors etc. but where the infotainment systems and general car "features" are reliant on activation by the manufacturer, or an on-going service that the manufacturer provides. If they ever decide to stop the service, a feature of the car is unusable. It's like BMW's horrible idea to "activate" features of the car based on a subscription service.

I have a 1972 Beetle that will carry on running for decades due to its simplicity; I also have a 2016 new Beetle that I suspect will have a far shorter lifespan. There are buttons on the steering wheel that won't do anything without paying VW for the privilege; Android Auto is also not enabled here in the UK without paying £200 for the privilege, and the VW garages I have been to in order to enable haven't succeeded in doing it, or believe it isn't available on the car....

It's like cloud computing for cars, which is short-sighted in future usability. This mentality has affected everything, from music and film availability, to apps and all technology, which is increasingly in every part of life.

It's insane. Everything is far far more complicated than it has ever been in human history, yet is presented as a simple service to attain, so the adoption of short-term usability grows. It isn't an improvement at all.

> there's nothing in US law that says general-purpose computing devices are supposed to be treated differently than other products for the purposes of antitrust analysis

Other products include Macs and PCs, which allow "sideloading" by default, out of the box. Why are game consoles the relevant comparison? There's nothing in US law that says smartphones are supposed to be treated the same as game consoles.

iPhone was not originally a game console. (Apple itself almost never makes games.) Indeed, iPhone was not originally a store either. Apple argued in court that App Store is not a separate product from iPhone, but that's easily historically refuted: iPhone shipped in 2007 without App Store! App Store was added a year later, so it's obviously not essential to the product. And IAP aren't essential to App Store either, because they weren't added until 2009.

It was developers like Epic who showed iPhone could be a gaming platform. Apple itself has a pretty poor history at gaming, and the Mac has always been subpar compared to Windows.

What about drag gesture? I.e. if you want to enable a particular widgets such as image display / text box to be draggable? How the event should be passed in and handled?

These gestures seems not internal to the widgets, but also mutate the widgets state in one way or another and need some abstraction to handle the common behavior.
We’ll design our way through this. It reminds me of the introduction of compact fluorescent lights (CFLs). The first batches didn’t reach their efficiency goals and burned out faster than expected, which really sucked because of the mercury content. Now 10 years later? Go to Home Depot and the cheapest options are LEDs, they last forever, and they’re free of heavy metals. (Source: someone tried to dissuade me from entering the energy industry by telling the story of the CFL in 2010).
Two things. IMHO (of course) and GUI toolkit needs to be usable from other languages, I hope that's part of the plan. And also, Don't use platform-specific features or be a wrapper over their widgets. Be a GUI toolkit that works everywhere.

Good luck!
I always figured we saw the technology with disaster relief and first responders because of the military development not panning out as expected and companies seeking to recoup investment.

we don't see a lot of military programs until long after they have either been shut down or morphed into something new.

everything kills, people just need to recognize the simple fact that that government which can provide you with roads, water, health care, and more, has the same power to deprive you and others of the same. the trouble is finding politicians who appeal to your sense of helping others and not in electing them to do unto others.

A slightly different take: do things in such a way that scaling isn't a consideration. Figure out if you want to scale or not, and make a thing that either scales, or doesn't. Don't make a thing and then get surprised later. And don't make a thing a particular way just because people tell you to. Know what you're getting yourself into, and then jump in with intention.

Vote for new representatives to change the laws.

Technically speaking, as a jurist you aren't supposed to make a decision based on fairness instead of the law, and if you state that you will, you will be removed from the jury or held in contempt. Jury nullification, which you're suggesting as a strategy, isn't intended to be legal, its just unpunishable.

There are people who don't like marketers. But then there are people who believe in a flat earth. I don't worry much about such things.

I value people based on their value to their community, their kindness towards others and the positive actions they engage in. I know I'm a good person because of what I create around me and how I cultivate my garden.

If someone is bigoted enough to judge someone based on their job title alone, I'm not sure I even want them to like me. It's that old saying "those that matter don't care, and those that care don't matter".

It could still store the data on the device. Then in the future, a companies like google could drive around with an open wifi network on their street view cars and charge TV manufacturers for gathering the data. Or drones with open wifi could be deployed.

A former co-worker of mine recounted an experience with a person hired by his previous company who had written a book on software development methodology, Scrum or something. Evidently the way the author's employment worked is the company got the reputation benefit from having a famous expert on staff. In exchange he gave talks but didn't have to do any actual work for the company, and the company didn't have to follow his methodological orthodoxies.
> But what would we do if all those legal and technical experts came up with a framework that the general population believed was obviously unfair?

We have lots of issues in the US that some people feel are unfair, and we've been pretty successful approaching those problems through the democratic process rather than picking some randos off the street to decide them.

It absolutely wasn't my choice to go to a Microsoft product. The engineering manager has some issues with the way Gitlab does PR merge diffs or something like that. I've been pretty impressed with Gitlab. Having a deb package that runs Chef is pretty unique. While Chef is my least favorite configuration manager, it's always worked perfect when doing apt upgrades on Gitlab and it is 100% behind the scenes.
> Jury nullification, which you're suggesting as a strategy, isn't intended to be legal, its just unpunishable.

It's ironic that the whole point of the jury system is to enable jury nullification, and yet those are the magic words that will immediately get you out of jury duty. I wish there was a simple checkmark on the jury summons form that says "I know what jury nullification is and intend to use it," it would save everyone a lot of time.
I'd be interested in hearing more about what liberals have done to "normalize" divorce.

A conservative movement genuinely interested in making sure children are raised in wedlock could endorse routine family planning and reproductive health services, rather than building an entire totalizing culture war out of opposition to them. Otherwise, it's hard to imagine a policy more antithetical to our founding principles than one that compels the reluctant unwed parents of unwanted children to marry.

These issues didn't seem to bother Ben Franklin too much. But: fair enough! A liberal.
I have always suspected that this "whimsical" attitude stems from technical inability on the ISP's end in India. Most ISPs seem to run off the shelf equipment and few people have an adequate understanding of networking beyond the very basics, which leads to such easy-to-circumvent censorship. What terrifies me is that they might just end up learning at some point in the near future.

What's the social utility of hedge funds?

Their business model is to draw in investors who are willing to pay extremely high fees in exchange for the hope of beating the market. In practice, hedge funds underperform the market, so their investors are paying fees for nothing. The only winners are the hedge fund managers. Enriching people for providing negative value to their customers isn't socially useful.

Along similar lines, the crowning achievement of the synthetic asset quants was the creation of a mountain of toxic three-card-monte mortgage debt that exploded in 2008, bringing down the global financial system, crashing the world economy, impoverishing hundreds of millions of people, and creating the political environment that lead to both Trump and Brexit. Blowing up the world certainly isn't socially useful.

I don't see any downside to reducing the FIRE sector's share of GDP back to what it was in 1960. The economy worked for the median person then; it doesn't work for the median person now, and the amount of wealth the FIRE sector sucks out of the economy to pay for these kinds of games has a great deal to do with that.
Is that automation or scale? Doing things on a large scale can be more efficient and require less labor, but McDonald's is still hiring people to do effectively the same thing in the stores as they did 50 years ago. A lot of industrial food tech is not new or cutting edge, and has limits, like you can't freeze dry a fully-made hamburger for later consumption.
Deaths are only the most unfortunate part of it. Do you think life is going back to normal any time soon? I don't. What happens when this goes on for another couple years and people finally realize 2019 was probably the last "normal" year they'll experience for quite a while? Nothing good.
What unfortunate, baseless fear mongering this is.

Can you post an example of how welfare benefits are structured to disincentivize marriage?

I also think this is an example of how conservatives and progressives talk past each other. There's a difference between being in favor of divorce, and being in favor of recognizing that there are situations where divorce is a better option than staying married. Also, there's a difference between being in favor of raising children outside of marriage, and being in favor of an unmarried person or family raising an existing child that would otherwise not be raised by anyone.

"Telephone anxiety", is a thing, as I've come to learn recently about some of my cohorts when I'd ask this very question:

"did you call and ask this person for the follow-up you're claiming they haven't given you in three days?"

I had no clue-now I'm not going to press the matter and push the person into it, yet at the same time here we're sitting on a decision being left open by one person, and not being acted on at all by another.

Makes for some interesting manager decisions, it does.

In college, I lived with roommates in a working class urban neighborhood three or four blocks away from campus. The block I lived on featured the convenience of only one side of the street having houses on it. The other was nose-in parking, facing a creek.

The cars that lined the other side of the street were uniformly nice. Every time I remarked about that, my roommates would dump on the working poor for buying showy cars they couldn't afford.

They never once considered that the street was used as free overflow parking by university employees, which even cursory observation showed to be the case.

So yes, "they buy nice cars they can't afford" is a mean cliche, even if I'm sure you can find some case of it being true.
While they are a cost effective choice in the hellscape that is call centers, I wouldn't recommend anyone engage in one-ear listening for any significant length of time.

Sound heard in two ears is perceived by your brain as louder than that heard in only one ear. A listener using only one ear must raise the volume, and the harm of that over the long term (and even individual event exposures) is well studied.

Anecdotally I have several people in my family that used to work in radio, spend extended amounts of time using monitors in only one ear, and now have advancing or profound hearing loss in that ear.

Also, where are you pulling your notion of 8Khz capped audio quality from? Skype has historically had some issues with selection of the crappiest audio codec and sample rate that resulted in pushing many calls down to the lowest bar of 8Khz, but info I can find for Teams suggests a sample rate of 16Khz and bit rate of ~50kbps. For Zoom it looks to be 32Kbps ~50kbps. By no means approaching the capabilities of a decent audio output setup, but better than you reference.
