Yeah folks are definitely forgetting that battery life != phone screen size. It's much more complicated than that.

I had a 6S and I couldn't stand the battery life (or size). "Down"graded to a 2016 SE and the battery life was leaps and bounds better -- plus, it didn't shut itself off outside on cold days.

Based on Apple's spec page, it does look like the Mini has worse battery life than the 12. The real question is:

- how is standby battery life?

and

- what kind of impact does 5G have?

The number's on Apple's site are a great deal better than the 2020 SE's battery life, so I think we might have a good balance here. Hopefully.
Nope. You're probably abusing flexbox. This layout:

| HEADER |
|Nav|Content|Sidebar|
| Footer |

is more what we're talking about. You could do that, but it's not what flexbox was meant for. Try grid out. It will work easier for grid like layouts.
It's certainly different from what seems like the standard usage in the past few years, but I woudn't say it's a misuse. Here's is google's dictionary definition

"a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group."

In this case, the "advatange" would be 'able to find job without going through recruiter' and the 'particular person or group' would be 'the group of people who (through their hard work or otherwise) are sufficiently talented/and or secure enough in their career'

Anyway it's sad this this word has such a negative smell attached to it now, thanks to people using it to shame people on the opposing side of internet arguments.
I'm confused. You suggest that templates are what you are offering, but this is a link to an app. Are you offering the wireframe templates themselves? Like, for example, ui8[1].

This is handled via Airplay 2, so I can't see a reason why it wouldn't be supported on the mini.

You may be right, and later comments in the issue thread seem to row back on the original comment and hint at that. Here's hoping...
Or, maybe someone messed up, and in order to divert attention from themselves, they had to find and put the blame on the boogeyman.

It is very hard to beat a good off the shelf allocator in the general case, but it is easy in specialized cases, simply because you can make tradeoffs and rely on knowledge the allocator doesn't have.
> Machine Learning algorithms and Artificial Neural Networks are still mostly adequate terms for what's going on in the industry thus abusing of term "AI" (artificial intelligence) makes it just a marketing BS.

It's true that the terms ML and ANN predate the current hype but they were introduced/kept in use for the same reason: talking in mathematical terms does not excite research grant decision makers or business customers. Neural is a buzzword, it's easy to interpret for laypeople. If you talk about Latent Dirichlet Allocation, Support Vector Regression, Projection Pursuit, Principal Component Analysis, Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces, Reverse-Mode Automatic Differentiation etc etc, then people yawn.

Why do we call linear programming "programming"? It has nothing to do with machine instructions. The answer: the name was made up for the hype and for securing research grants, when math funding was dry, but CS research was popular.

Why call "dynamic programming" like that? What's dynamic about it? Because the inventor wanted a name nobody can object to and sounds buzzy enough.

People try to name things in sexy ways to gain an edge.
I think you’re partially right. However, it also depends on what you’re comparing to and what the baseline is. There are lots of projects that try to predict the future and using a framework to do so in a systematic way that can improve over time with feedback is really valuable. That part resonates with me.

I do agree that keeping this high level and abstract (scenario planning + probabilistic estimates) isn’t necessarily doing them any favours. Their book on the topic is better, and I do appreciate their argument that it’s not about being a perfect predictor of the future, but simply better than what we have today.
Does anyone know if the old RelayNet (aka RIME) and FidoNet stuff ever made into these kinds of archives?

I believe these were gatewayed with Usenet (so you could use NNTP to read and write), though they weren't actually part of Usenet proper.

I was an active participant back in the 1990s, but it disappeared when the web took over.

They are undoubtedly referring to the highly controversial Nostratic language family hypothesis, which postulates a language superfamily that includes most of the large language families of Eurasia (i.e. Indo European, Semitic, Dravidian, Uralic) and also the proposed "Altaic" family which (also controversially) is comprised Korean, Japanese, and Turkic.

Nostratic excludes the Sino-Tibetan family (i.e. Chinese languages), most languages of Southeast Asia, and all the African languages.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nostratic_languages

Again, it's so broad a grouping, projected so far back in time and based on such weakly detected feature similarities, that it's by no means broadly accepted as a language family in the way that Indo-European, Semitic, Uralic, etc are.
> Also, what about the gaming of the system. A person could ask for a higher salary saying they are in, or relocating to, the BA, then within a few months, or even days, of joining they move out.

Either the person needs to be in the Bay Area for the job, in which case the answer isn't "paycut" but "you're fired"; OR it doesn't matter where they live, so why even go through the COL rigamarole? Just offer the lowest possible amount that will get a qualified person from anywhere in the world into the seat. If your options are "200k for a person in the Bay Area" or "20k for a person from Russia" why would you pay 140k to someone in Kansas?
Hey OP/author here, can you tell me a bit more about the issue? I've asked around and it seemed to work as expected on mobile.

MagSafe can be seen as the replacement for AirPower! It's solving the same problem in a much simpler way.

AirPower's big promise was that it was a multi-device charging mat that didn't require perfect alignment to get high power charging. Apple ultimately cancelled it, likely because this proved too difficult to do safely. (rumored to be thermal issues with the multi-coil design)

MagSafe solves the alignment problem in a simpler way. Instead of carefully aligning your phone, the magnets just "suck" your phone to the optimal charging position.
> I got into many heated discussions with "computer scientists" in the team.

Had a week long argument once about an (relatively) inefficient MySQL query because "it's not going to work for 1000 things" when a) we had barely 10 things currently running and b) the customer was >this far< from cancelling because stuff wasn't working (which this query would help with.) It was a frustrating time. I think there's a lot of developers who "know the price of everything and the value of nothing".
It's a setting you can change.
You cannot fundamentally predict the future, fuhgedaboutit, partly for the same reasons we cannot use Turing machines to solve the halting problem for Turing machines.

What you can do, however, is control your exposure to outcomes of unpredictable events. You don't know when a pandemic will hit, but you know it is is matter of time, just like getting hacked. So prepare and design accordingly. Simple. No need for this superforecasting nonsense which doesn't even work.
iPhone 4 had a (flush) depth of 9.3 mm.

Iphone 12 tech specs says it has a depth of 7.44 mm. It's unclear if that includes the camera bump, but I'm going to to asssume it doesn't, because Apple.

Yeah. That extra 1.86 mm would probably add quite a lot of battery capacity, like 20-35% more.
The No side's ads are incredibly scummy.

The retired boston police commissioner has done an ad spot for Yes on Right To Repair specifically to slap down the "you will be raped in a parking lot" FUD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bye5DRBSpw

The EFF is also strongly in favor, naturally, but i think Ed Davis will pull more weight if anyone's undecided.

(when marijuana legalization was on the ballot in 2016, the then-chief of the state police did a similar ad spot whose pitch boiled down to "vote yes so we can stop wasting our time on stupid college students, willya?", which I think had a similarly large impact. )
That's where I learned all my French.

So Twitch is 100% live content. If the technology were easy to replicate and the talent/streamers went elsewhere, Twitch would have nothing?
It really seems to me that archive.org, or some similar organisation, should petition Google to donate their Usenet archive, which they clearly don't care about, to them. Or possibly buy it off them.

It's a long shot since it would require Google to actually do something with a dataset they clearly don't care about, but they could get some good corporate PR points almost for free.
Lots of people like to believe this but it really, really isn’t true.

Los Angeles and New York City have a substantially larger cultural footprint than other cities.

Sure, every place is different. But what is your evidence that dating is harder in one city vs another?
I never used a case. Only once my iPhone catapulted from my pocket once and the screen was broken, but still, that repair wasn't worth enough for me to use an ugly protector that kills the whole design of the iPhone.
The comment is making the case that you might expect it to be safe to take as much D3, as your body makes naturally with a small amount of sun exposure. It's not arguing that you should go skiing and get sunburnt.

Except that he apparently would have been fine if he was just replanting everything and not applying any herbicides, with only some percent of the plants having the patented gene. Even though that would also be intentionally propagating patented genes.
The reality is that no, its not necessarily symmetrical. Rates will be set by market forces, not any concept of "fairness."

Clearly companies are willing to pay $200k+ for top talent.
"Cost of living" or however you want to break down that salary is irrelevant to what companies think employees are worth.

Unless the company is getting less value, they can stand to pay the same no matter where you are physically. Calling it a cost of living decrease is just kabuki for paying less.

If WFH continues, salaries should normalize across all regions but its yet to be seen what the value of top talent vs average employee is at a global scale.
It's not abuse, they can't get the goodwill advertising value from unlimited and then call foul when people take them up on it, that's absurd. If Google doesn't think it can make money with unlimited storage for 12$ then they shouldn't offer it, not offer it then complain about customers using it too much.

But the GPL applies to the driver they released, not some hypothetical driver that you or somebody else might create in the future. You're already going to have to rewrite it all in this proposed alternative language... this header is the least of your worries.

Strikes me that AMD have supplied everything required: all the driver code in the preferred form for modification of the driver, i.e., a bunch of C files.

Some of these C files are a big long list of slightly opaque magic number defines that relate to the hardware, perhaps generated by some unreleased tool, who can say - it's all speculation at this point - but that's OK! The hardware is not the bit you're going to modify. As far as the people modifying the drivers are concerned, those numbers are never going to change. This portion of the driver is fixed.
I see a lot of commentary saying that these pay cuts are perfectly rational, because “of course” new hires would be given different rates depending on their cost of living. But for a purely remote firm, why would a cost-of-living adjustment exist at all?

In a pre-COVID job market with physical offices, obviously you need to pay higher rates for the same quality of employee in a major city. Someone must be hired, and the only available applicants are paying high rents, so the firm is forced to pay more if they want their offers accepted. Supply and demand.

But if the firm is purely remote, why tolerate this? Ignoring the issue of pay cuts for moves, why pay $200K for someone in SF instead of $100K for someone just as good in Pittsburgh?

If there were no friction to hiring/firing, and no difference in employee quality by location, the rational strategy would not to set wages based on the local cost-of-living. The wages should be set at the replacement cost of the labor. The firm receives no benefit from the employee choosing to live somewhere expensive. They should simply pay the same rate everywhere, and each employee can choose their city based on their own values and ability to pay rent.

My personal theory is that this is the scenario that many newly-remote-only firms are now in. They don’t want to pay employees different rates based on location, but their workforce is nonetheless mostly in an expensive city and expects to be paid accordingly, as per pre-COVID norms. What the firm would like to do is reduce wages across the board, but doing so would spark a backlash from workers who suddenly can no longer make rent. Thus they create the fiction of downward CoL adjustments, which only made sense pre-COVID, to concentrate the negative effects on the workers most willing to endure them — the workers suddenly paying less in rent. If remote-only remains permanent, firms will eventually fire or decline to replace staff in expensive cities, as the same work can be done cheaper elsewhere, until reaching an equilibrium where all workers are paid less and the firm no longer cares where they live.

In the breeding process, I am absolutely sure that during the breeding process they propagated using immature embryos. "Cloning" by definition implies vegetative propagation, and I'm sure when they finished the breeding process that is how they have propagated this cultivar.

If you are interested in more of the details, there is a wikipedia article on cotton candy grapes, If you look in the references, there are several articles with more on how the variety was produced.
I live in the future. Here we hate mobile phones. They are boring slabs with annoying demand of mental attention. The cool kids are using simple open hardware to tap into p2p networks. The old people are recycling 4g tech with 3d printed mods for fun and to save money. Economy is sinking daily and the only option to buy new hardware is to finance it for life, so we avoid to do this.

Seriously now, my last phone is SE.

I feel that this boring, politically correct, cunning corporation is exactly the opposite of the original Apple idea and ethos. This started years ago with whole Semi-Pro trend, but now is in a full swing, not listening of pro users, milking 30 percent everything, basically is a company for “fashion people” with polished marketing.

It's not abuse any more than using your $500/month insurance plan to cover a $12,000/month chemotherapy treatment is abuse. Advertising unlimited storage for $12 is Google saying "We bet the vast majority of our users don't need twelve dollars' worth of storage but will pay it anyway because they want one less thing to have to think about".
They would actually argue the same thing. Certain events are impossible to predict.

Other events are not.

That’s part of the beauty of the problem. You need to be able to pick the right events to predict and ensure the event is well-defined enough to actually test. Your own examples of why this wouldn’t work are exactly what they discuss as the problem... Eventually a lot of forecasts are correct; what governments, companies, and leaders need are forecasts that are time bound, as that’s how they plan.
Ask HN: Use several identical PCs/Laptops but with a single, swapable SSD HD?
Carrying around a powerful laptop can still be annoying and limiting these days, so can be cloud synchronization. Apart from the cost, I wonder if it wouldn’t be more convenient to have identical machines at work, home and for travel but they all use the same removable (SSD) hard drive, which contains not just data but the whole setup incl OS, installed software and settings etc

So say I work at home, then go to the office. Instead of bringing the laptop, I just remove the hard drive, go to the office, plug it into and identical laptop there and continue working where I left off.

Has anyone tried this?
What’s makes this even more frustrating is that they just came out with Touch ID in the power button foe the iPad Air, so they could have put both on the phone.

Look. Point is. President Trump and his political enablers have proven themselves to be dangerous and irresponsible, and bear significant responsibility for the deaths of tens of thousands of americans because of the administrations terrible handling of the pandemic.

That is the truth.

I understand some people disagree. Those people are wrong.

This is ultimately about right and wrong, and irreconcilable values.

The current administration and its political enablers are pandering or outright leading the worst aspects of American society - white supremacy, exploitation of the poor and powerless, sexism, and authoritarian/fascist tendencies.

This is what I believe to be true, and while I will listen and discuss with people who may not agree with me in full, I will not equivocate about the immoral, unethical, un-American nature of the Trump Administration and what the bulk of the Republican party has become.
