You’ll never get Apple fans to understand that. They will happily toss a $1000 Apple’s way yearly for a new unrepairable device to be created with rare earth metals in China, shipped across the ocean on a freighter and then turn around and tell you that paying more for a charging cable is helping save the environment. Diehards do not care about the cost, they are already paying.
I think calling nutrition is a pseudoscience is a huge disservice. It’s a rapidly growing science in its nascency. Older research suffers greatly from “correlation is not causation”. That’s the reason that ideas like “saturated fat is bad” are getting debunked now.

I am of the opinion that most every educated person with enough interest in nutrition is best off doing their own research and forming their own opinions that are backed up by scientific research. This is a great place to start: https://examine.com/
I want to use my phone less, so this is a feature IMO.
From the video intro, it looks like the power cord is hardwired into the device. I would have thought it was going to be USB-C.

I'd prefer to swap out the cable in case it comes with a standard 6' and I want to tuck the speaker next to an outlet on a shelf.
It is said that keynesians and free market economists both would find themselves at the ire of other intellectuals. Taleb lamented that economists are rated by other economists so we can't be sure they're correct. Even the greatest economist said that economists are not reliable.
The “conversion” of the probability wave--now that's much more specific with regards to the "configuration" space and well put.
When I had first learned about WPD it really didn't strike me as odd or mysterious as historically described. In effect, I thought, both realities must be there simultaneously--that sounds like normal QM nature. The collapse of the duality simply depends on the "conversion" function.
On this note, are there any fascinating presentations on WPD that take the "mystery" out of it?
Hacker News folks.
Reminds me of a parody startup generator I made years ago :) [0].

The ideas that reference a specific other company or niche are good but for more abstract prompts (e.g. "Consider the human desire for power. How could you use technology to take out steps?") I've found it's harder to get a meaningful brainstorm started.

Because they don't want to hop jobs. Walking away from a transaction is the signal to the buyer and seller that there is something wrong with the price. If neither party walks away, then there is nothing wrong with the price.
>A labor organization/union has always struck me as "too good to be true" and unrealistic.

remarkably ignorant. why doesn't the United States just send around one soldier as needed? Strength in numbers is how hundreds of species survive, this is pretty basic logic that extends into business and commerce as well.
It’s nice, but I wish it had a line out jack for an external amp. I would love to replace my Echo Input with one, and keep the nice speakers I have...

Oh wait, it’s not available in my country...
An Apple watch with LTE would likely let you make and take phone calls, optionally with airpods worn.
The point of the control room in CyberSyn wasn't to make second-by-second or minute-by-minute decisions but rather on longer timescales like days or weeks. In Brain of the Firm, Beer argues specifically against overloading it with numbers and that it should be a "thinking room".

That’s not what Schroedinger’s equation says though, it can combine the wave functions of two quantum systems, say a particle and a force, and show how they evolve with no problem, in fact that literally what it does. Quantum mechanics simply doesn’t have a complete account of collapse to a specific state.
Because of collusion with the US government to help "make the economy scream" as was listed in meeting notes between the CIA director and Nixon.

These people would rather destroy their own economy than give the socialists a fair chance, then use that destruction as "see that's why we need to kill the president".
game fidelty is often more about artistic choices than technical stats like texture resolution polygon count, and shader complexity. Especially today, when polygon counts and texture resolution are so high. Squeezing 10% more polygons in when you already had enough doesn't matter. But if you go for some stylistic choice that people just don't like, then it might be perceived as looking bad.

Like in the latest Warzone game, the weird blur they do when you start driving around, to me that is un-watchable. It makes everything look like miniatures to me. But I suppose some people like it. While pubg is very very simple by comparison but I like it fine.
Have companies been laying off the cooks and not paying rent? Otherwise the reduced food bill isn't that much of a saving.
As a right handed person my thumb reaches the left edge of my 2016SE, but any further would be an uncomfortable stretch.

From my XR experience there was an option to shift the keyboard to the side, so they acknowledge the design flaw.
Unions representing professional athletes have in some cases agreed to maximum salaries for players (e.g. in the NBA) as a concession, so that isn't always true. Team salary caps negotiated in leagues without a salary max also depress player salaries.
Inflation has been here for a while, house prices have exploded, education and healthcare are unaffordable too. Sure TVs, cars and clothes have reduced in price so now they really make a tiny impact on your budget. The real problem is CPI isn't reflecting the real world.
I don't think this is exactly it. One can try -- and try fruitfully, for these theories have been useful in practice -- to match 'money' and 'inflation' and 'debt', in their macro senses, to everyday experience, with the caveat that they're aggregate concepts that affect individuals and various productive activities differently, and that they (money especially) can behave a little weird.

What happens instead is that people have feelings about what these concepts are supposed to mean, and then use that to make a political statement. The reason armchair- and pseudo-economists are so eager to say things like "Money is really about X" or "Money is really about the opposite of X" is they want to hijack the word 'money' and the meaning it has in the brain and turn that into politics.

These confident takes are more directly engaging, whereas economic pronouncements are wonky and weird in a way that's more relatively neutral or at least not obviously political, so the gravitation is towards the bad and confusing takes.
I much rather prefer the events of our current timeline than a continuation of Allende's happy soviet time drunkocracy that would have meant war against neighbors and potentially a superpower. The death of millions not only 3,000.

Allende believed in an armed revolution and his house had a large stash of Soviet-made weapons. He destabilized the country because he wanted his revolution at any cost.

And there was a revolution, just of another flavor that he didn't like.
The percentage of that stimulus that stays in the hands of consumer for disposable income is what’s gonna determine if there will be inflation. The fed is betting most of that is used for paying bills and debt. Then what you get is asset inflation at the hands of businesses.
I love Apple, and I would have to agree with this.
Ehm $25/y to play your own music!?

Get this inflammatory strawman shit out of here.
Or those who bought a phone but traded it in towards the cost of a new one. And the charger went with it, because otherwise you get a lower price...
Single file binaries would be great for my use case! It all works fine now, but the instructions would go from "copy all this directory with everything inside, MAKE SURE EVERY FILE IS COPIED, then make sure again" to "copy the file".
The phone would be thicker, but they'd be able to stick a lot of battery in there if they made the back flush with the camera bump.
It's not about $20, it's about 20%. If you're thinking about buying 4 or 6 of these things, 20% adds up.

Also for some people, $20 does matter. Lots of people are out of work — unemployment hasn't been this high in decades.
This is exactly right. People love to claim that we can print unlimited money because we are the reserve currency, yet the entire underlying collateral of the international trade system that preserves this is international us treasury repo markets (eurodollars), which becomes totally untenable as that becomes a negative carry position with real negative yields.

The further we go down that line, the more attractive dedollarization becomes.
I'm a big apple fan, got a homepod last christmas, and it's the worst apple product that I've ever owned. Truly disappointing. Siri fails to recognize commands that work great on alexa or google, the features it does have often fail (if I transfer a podcast from playing on my phone to play on the homepod, my phone often fails to sync with the location of my homepod).

There's no way I will buy one of these until I hear from multiple people I know that they have one and it's truly amazing.

You do not use realtime procedural textures in AAA games. The resolution for those needs to be quite high (2048px or 4096px) and compiling the shaders into that resolution takes ages.

They however do use procedural textures when texturing objects (Check Substance Designer), but having to compile them during playtime would make load times unacceptably high. Maybe even hours.
Honestly, I think rent in Zürich is less than sfba. It's just eating out that is more expensive, but supermarket food quality is so high people just cook more.
Yes. Online provides very little cues of action, therefore requiring the people to state their actions. When primative man was done with his work, he was content to do nothing, but not in society today where we are cogs in a machine working for society.
If you're thinking about conversations, I think it's definitely the opposite. For example, waiting for a reply to a chat message people definitely have more patience than when having a verbal conversation (anything longer than a few seconds would be an awkward pause).

Depends what you mean by "interaction" though
SF engineers are getting payed well becouse there is a shortage of SF engineers that can afford to live in SF with lower wages. If for any reason the engineers doesn't have to live in SF anymore wages will equalize atleast over the domestic market.
Still no transparent TouchID? Boooooo.

(Am I the only one who hates FaceID and feels like it was mostly a neat engineering problem to work on that doesn't actually suit the task as well as simple fingerprinting?)
So what? Web pages can do more than they used to. Engineers of yore similarly decried the ugly machine code generated by compilers. The HTML and CSS our browsers download are targeted at browsers, not humans.

If someone writes a buggy, inefficient C program, we fix the bugs, we don't abandon C and rewrite everything in assembly because the resulting machine code is prettier.
12 is just a good number for dividing up the screen that supports common column based layouts. 1-4 columns is a cinch.
>> It's worth pointing out that housing costs are included in CPI (by proxy of rent).

I think that is the reason CPI hasn't increased. CPI only accounts for rent and not the cost of actually buying the house. There are definitely highly inflated price to rent ratios particularly in land constrained urban areas.

I think a better way to put it is that there is low/no Consumer Price Inflation but there is tremendous Asset Inflation (in stuff that wealthy people buy).

And perhaps if there did need to be inflation, then perhaps this is better than the reverse (i.e. high CPI inflation which would impact people's ability to buy the basics)?
>Subjectively I can say that I feel far better than I did a few months ago, but that could be placebo or due to other factors.

To add additional anecdote: I've taken dozens of different supplements and nootropics on an experimental basis over my life.

Vitamin D is the ONLY one I still take because it consistently makes me feel better.

Yeah, I read rumors about the iPhone Mini when the SE 2 launched. Glad I waited!
Yeah, I probably botched the exact wording - "at the bottom" would have been stronger. It's been a very long time since I've heard that one.

I once worked with a guy who had gotten his MD in a different country. Didn't have any luck getting work when he moved back to the US, and I can understand why - I wouldn't trust him to cut my toenail based on his competence in his new profession.
No I think it's the opposite, or at least, every situation is different. Consider a one-on-one chat (either over an instant messenger, or face to face in person). The period of time after which it becomes an "awkward silence" is much shorter in person.

If I ask somebody a question in person and they take 5 mins to respond then that's a pretty ling awkward silence. If I message somebody on Slack and they take 5 mins to respond then that's not unreasonable.

You could argue that the "Seen" feature of chat is meant to lower the acceptable wait time online, and indeed it does, but still not by as much. If somebody has "Seen" my message but doesn't reply after a couple mins, I'll start to wonder why, but usually my reasonableness kicks in and I think maybe they just are busy or didn't mean to click the notification or something. I'd still wait far longer for somebody to respond to a "seen" message than I would for somebody to respond to a "heard" question I asked them in person.
There's two things at stake here:

1. The letter of the service being offered

2. The spirit of the service being offered

Personally, I've always thought #2 was more important than #1. Unfortunately, #1 is often the one that gets enforced, especially when lawyers get involved, which is why legalese exists because when you know people argue from the standpoint of #1, you have to make sure there aren't any loopholes. But I'm digressing a bit here...

Look, just because a company offers something "unlimited" doesn't necessarily mean it can't be abused. To argue otherwise is bad faith, IMO. We can argue over where the line is, but that's just a pointless distraction.

But I think everyone would agree that storing a petabyte of data with a service that offers "unlimited" storage for $12/month is abuse.
Do not be confused. These technologies are very different to the 5G technology (called “New Radio”) the new iPhone and 5G phones in general are using. They are designed around using as little energy as possible and maintaining connectivity in very difficult conditions to the expense of speed and latency.
Random aside: the VLC app will also play music/movies from NFS/SMB and is an overall great app on Apple TV.
This is a really nice product. One caveat - is it possible to restrict egress as well? The example suggested that if I am running a Digital Ocean instance, I will need to change my firewall to make egress ALL open.

It's likely solve the gap of "I can't use my phone while it's wirelessly charging". With the magsafe thing you can just clunk the charger to the back of your phone and keep using it. While battery life is still crap on these (side note - I didn't hear a single thing in the presentation about battery life... yikes) people are going to be charging their phones while they use them.

I hate to be a pessimist but with them not including a charger or headphones, they're slowly moving toward no data port whatsoever

Hinges on what you believe would have happened to stock that scalpers bought, had they not done so. It may have left enough on the shelf for the would-be customers of scalpers to meet their needs. On the other hand, that leftover stock may have been obtained by panic buyers.

On a hunch I'd say a scalper would purchase more off the shelf than a panic buyer, because with the goal they have in mind they a) want a large quantity to resell to a large number of people and b) want to drain shelf stock to increase their odds of success.
Magnetic force falls off pretty quickly - a phone case can cause enough of a difference to make that force lackluster. Apparently, it seems, enough to put magnets in the case itself to better maintain that force.

Additionally, it looks like the goal is to let your phone be held vertically, while attached only to the magnet. This makes sense for car mounts, where you may want to mount your GPS via magnet and charge it simultaneously.
The entitlement is quite staggering, as evidenced by the comment you replied to. This is like Cocal Cola putting a free refill station on the street and a bunch of people rolling up with tanker trucks, then getting upset when it's taken away.
sandals and socks. high fashion uses multiple sources. Sometimes its inspired by nature, sometimes scifi, sometimes its inspired by traditional internet cringe!

Interesting pic. I think it tries to show the hdr, dynamic rage of shadows + cleanliness even though the person is in motion.
> How is this even possible?

I'm gonna bet that the self-professed "law and order" party isn't going to have cops barging down their doors and shooting folks in the back as they run away over such crimes.
I don’t care about the size of the screen. I care about the width, and to a lesser extent the height.

The 12 mini looks just about reasonable, will find out next month if it actually is.
Sufficient is enough, and yes I am aware that the difference at the other end of the country is indeed stark, the point being that southern Britain is still several degrees north of the parent post's Pacific Northwest, where it was said to be impossible.
Can HomePods only play via Apple Music? How about using Plex and getting that to play thru whatever device you want?

Disclaimer: I don't use Plex for music or have any Apple smart home devices. Just trying to throw out an idea that maybe possible. I use Plex with my NAS for video content and stream it to all my devices.
On the one hand, Google has compiled a petabyte scale database containing detailed day-to-day movements, trips taken, searches made, web sites visited, purchases online and offline, and more, all linked together and associated with our identities.

But Apple requires a credit card to sign up for a developer account so obviously they're much worse.
Assuming you mean the 2016 iPhone SE, in the US you cannot buy it from a retail store - it is not presently available on the market as new stock (that i'm aware of). You can only get them used, refurbed, or maybe NoS if you're lucky.

Since you opened that door: Apple shares personal user data with the Chinese government. Call it what you will, but it's not a 'real honest commitment to privacy'.

Do you have any reference for that?

I am very curious how the "width" of an Apple cpu was measured. One of the few good measurements I know of was done here and it's a bit inconclusive as the result is very particular.

You are an anecdote though. I really dislike the Play Music -> Youtube Music transition as well, but I'm not cancelling. $15/month for my family not to watch Youtube ads + music is still OK.
It is a cloud storage service. You get all your music stored in the cloud. You always can use AirPlay to play your music on Homepods, if you like.
While I believe that the serverless hype is mostly, well, hype, this article makes some odd points against it.

> One is to optimize your functions for whichever cloud-native language your serverless platform runs on, but this somewhat undermines the claim that these platforms are "agile."

Like this one, don't see how optimizing for a specific language makes something less agile. Then again, "agile" means so many things in the field that I might just be misinterpreting.
https://dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1145/327649 ("Julia: Dynamism and Performance Reconciled by Design") section 4.2.1 shows how multiple dispatch enables a library to compute the derivative of another program without modifying that other program to be aware of the derivative-computing library.
Well that behaviour can still be configured on Windows with not much effort provided your sysadmins RTFM.

It's about how well you secure your machines, regulate behaviour and ensure good platform hygiene, the OS you're running is irrelevant.

I speak as a platform agnostic shared hoster guy who managed fleets of Windows and Linux environments, all public facing, and inherited an unholy security mess many years ago, both Windows and Linux, and had to unfuck it all. I could go into detail for the curious.

And is also complete ass.

I find that OneDrive tends to get hung up if it comes across a file that it can't read due to a lock. PyCharm for example will create a lock file, and it will cause OneDrive to halt all syncing until I close PyCharm and the lock file gets removed.
I guess with the lack of Dolby Atmos they would be more comparable to a Sonos Beam plus two rear speakers (e.g. Symfonisk) which can be bought for about $500. And that works with HDMI ARC for any input you might have on your TV, AirPlay, and every service that Sonos supports.
It's also the same price as a braided solo loop watch band.

Not sure how positive your interactions with unions were to hold this opinion, but that hasn't been my experience at all.

- Unions add more politics to an already increasingly political environment. I don't want to spend an hour or more every month in a meeting to vote on stuff I usually don't care about.

- Unions cost money, and while 200$/2 weeks (which is what one big union in my country charges) might seem reasonable to you, I don't like being forced to do anything.

- Unions usually end up with rules regarding who gets promoted and who doesn't. Broke your back working OT to help out the company? Well tough luck Martha came in one month before you and has priority on promotions.

- Unions make it harder to fire under performing employees. While that might fit in your ideal society, I prefer working with overachievers.
Or any other smartwatch with a SIM, there are plenty of options.
This is insightful. My speculative impression is that the phenomenon you describe does have an impact on the real economy and that the difference is primarily one of perception and information.

People in the past were also at great risk of job automation, regional economic decline, etc. etc., but didn't seem to stress them and try to hedge for them as much. I could be wrong though.
The "big" HomePods do support Airplay, I would assume the HomePod mini does as well. But indeed, if you have AppleMusic or iTunes Match, they become more useful.

I think the missing element here is what is being attacked. For a country committed to democracy, an attack on the democratic process is an attack on a core national interest.

I'm not sure Russian decision makers understand the full implications.
