Isn't Apple giving you a new option here?

Before, you were forced to buy the bundled wall wart, now you have the option to keep using what you had or buy a charger if you need it?

They're still forcing a bundled cable, but it's a different cable you probably don't have many of?
I guess I'm skeptical that you can be an excellent manager with that level of inability to discuss anything of depth. The excellent managers I've interacted with (especially at the exec level) have always been really sharp and had a pretty deep understanding of the stack even if they're not themselves programmers. The ones that don't or can't are usually bad.

> doing business in China is partially owed to the niche that the government carves for you...You need to grow at all costs until you can overtake competition then you're protected.

I suspect this protection is what allows people to succeed that would otherwise fail in a real competition. In that interview he comes across like an empty suit/figurehead. It wasn't a huge surprise to me that they got rid of him.
Attention deficit disorder. Rather than the predominantly hyperactive-impulsive subtype that everyone imagines, though, I have the predominantly inattentive subtype. Replace all of the hyperactivity symptoms with a double helping of forgetfulness and attention fatigue. Then add a heaping pile of self-loathing because everyone condemns your "laziness" as a moral failing that you can get over by focusing harder. Which you are, of course, physically incapable of. It's great fun.

That said, I'm not going to diagnose OP based on two lines of text. Talk to a doctor.
I'm interested to hear more about 1 and 2. In what way are browser vendors hostile to games, and what are the biggest tooling problems?
While attending a poor school and growing up in a poor environment gives you a completely different life perspective than growing up in a rich one, it's worth noting that this isn't what people mean when they talk about "diversity".
But why do you care what their costs are? What will you do with that information? Either the product is worth it for what you need or it isn’t.
SRAM can potentially use very little power on modern processes, depending on how fast you want to be able to access it.

If you are just making a relatively low-speed L3, getting rid of the heat produced in the SRAM itself will never be a problem. In general, the problem in SRAM layered on chip is considered to be that the stacked dies are a very good insulator, so the hot active die on the bottom will have heat dissipation problems.
You're saying that you interviewed 100 people and 93 of them where South Asian? That seems insane unless you're actively hiring talent from India.

There's a quote about this rule (get started and the job will be easier to complete):

Only engage, and then the mind grows heated,
Begin it, and the work will be completed!"

But they don't support the new faster Magsafe charging in the iPhone 12.

Wonderful, contact me as soon as we finish this one. https://github.com/vercel/commerce/issues/2

Let's do it!
Try purchasing a silicone/rubber P100 respirator before doing so? I don't think the supply is a big problem in the US anymore.
If a MagSafe charger can charge at 15W using a 20W Apple charger, that's a 75 percent charge efficiency. The charger itself is about 80 percent efficient converting from the wall, so the whole thing is about 60 percent efficient. An iPhone 12 has a 15 wh battery, so you need about 25 wh to charge the battery fully vs 19 wh. So the losses for 17,000 full charges using MagSafe over a regular cable would equal the charge in a 100kwh Tesla Model S.

ETA: the total charging loss from ten million iPhones charging 0-100 percent via MagSafe every day for a year would be 21,505 teslas.
I'm disappointed Apple hasn't dropped Lightning and just made all their devices use standard USB-C. I could see their motivation for developing their own connector when everyone else was using micro-B, which has a number of disadvantages, but now USB-C is used to power virtually every other phone and tablet, and many laptops including Apple's own.
No. Patient compliance is already a problem. You need to decrease the complexity of a treatment, not increase it.

For example, if you want Ursodiol for your gallstones, you will have to fight with your doctor. Why? You have to take it--daily, reliably, for more than a year before you will see any improvement. Yes, you may be an engineer with the self-discipline and knowledge to understand that you are basically ungrowing a crystal and that's a slow process, but the majority are not. They will miss treatments, they will double up treatments (useless, in this case), they will get tired of side effects, etc.

> we don’t have anything besides blood tests to figure out our health. It definitely seems like an industry ripe for disruption.

Spoken like an arrogant techie.

A blood test doesn't magically indicate what is wrong with you, and there is a lot of noise in the signal where a blood test indicates something is wrong that really isn't.
Interesting, I thought why do we need another music sharing app but this one is different.

It's more like playing and discussing the music.

To clarify:

WHAT they were doing with the data was not transparent. HOW they were doing the data collection was completely transparent.

The worst of both worlds. Which is to say—we're saying the same thing.

Univeristy research projects such as these go through extensive review. the univeristy is basically putting their name on the line for any research project that happens under their watch.

I'm not sure what you're advocating for. Is it that Facebook shouldn't be researched because they do not allow it? Not very sound reasoning to me.
I think the scientific goal was 60 grams which is more than just one piece at the size of the gathering head so they'd have to decide which tests they would actually do instead of being able to do all of the planned tests. So yeah just getting one larger piece would be a loss for the mission.
Don't forget the Kawasaki epidemic among children...that occurred at the same time this happens every year normally.

I've described context. You've confirmed it. Statement supported not by fact but by inner voice. My morale stems from Christianity, I believe Enlightenment got it right — discovery of nature is discovery of God. I've been to church, I've seen priest who shared joy. I've seen other priests, I would rather not see them.

X.Org developer described what's wrong with the project [1]. Not one of the Wayland critiques addressed his points. They have no facts, they just want it to fail. Those who work hard and share for free get anger in return. Sway / wlroots maintainer (ddevault) got off the edge from this misinformation and I do not agree with him but I am not maintainer either. Where is love and God in this story?

> That’s not even considering any personal goals, which I have vanishingly little time for. I get zero exercise, and though my diet is mostly reasonable the majority of it is delivery unless I get the odd 2 hours to visit the grocery store. That is, unless I want to spend those 2 hours with my friends, which means it’s back to delivery. My dating life is almost nonexistent. I want to spend more time studying Japanese, but it’s either that or keeping up with my leisure reading. Lofty goals of also studying Chinese or Arabic are but dust in the wind. I’m addicted to caffeine, again.

What a tough decision to make after nearly 11 years. My heart goes out to all the individuals who had their hearts in this company and product.
I don't read the skepticism as "I don't like this trend," but rather "this trend is not new." And I agree with you that the relationship that people have with computers is fascinating. But as others have pointed out when you tell people "You can do all this stuff without coding," but when what you're really doing is making it easier for people to code while calling it "not code," you're forcing them to reinvent this history of computing, but now they don't have the language to connect what they're doing to what the industry has been doing since 1959.

But the article is just very self contradictory. It doesn't make sense to say "The No-Code Generation is arriving," while also saying that "Lua has never been more popular," or that we just had "the largest increase among all of the [Advanced Placement] organization’s dozens of tests" or "Meanwhile at top universities, computer science has emerged as the top or among the top majors, pulling in hundreds of new students per campus per year." Quite clearly, besides "no-code" platforms, there quite clearly is a growth in interest in traditional coding tools as well.

Whenever someone is championing a "no code" or "configuration driven" solution for business processes all of these things you just described are alarm bells ringing in my head.

Especially when it is anything involving finances, even tangentially.

Making it easy for non-engineers to change business rules on the fly without a code deploy sounds nice in theory, until you think about it for a few more minutes.
As somebody who's somewhere between mediocre to good at whiteboard interviews (passed the loop at 1 FAANG, rejected by the rest), I think they're pretty solid. Most programming challenges, even at FAANG-scale, ultimately decompose into some family of classic interview problems (usually a graph or a hash table.) Everything else I do at work is implementation or stack specific. The average programmer will pick it up with enough exposure. But problem solving is somewhat binary (yes I realize thats an oxymoron) and not easily pick-up-able, at least on the time horizon a hiring manager wants to deal with.

I realized this when I got a lot better at whiteboard interviews after a FAANG job for a couple years. A coding challenge that I took the full hour on and bombed out of college was now done in twenty. I just picked up the problem solving intuition by writing a ton of code.
Nitpicking

> "This might be as simple as printing the number with your locale's version of numerical separators, like "123,456" or "123.456" or "123 456" or whatever else you might use where you are. The trick is then to NOT accept that as input, but instead demand that they remove the separator and jam it in as just digits. "

It's easier to just strip non-digit characters than to parse the input for them and respond accordingly. This is a confirmation step with basically a checksum, so you're not going to get many false positives.
> Making something built to run in the Web browser is the only thing we have if your interest is in checking all the relevant boxes instead of lying to yourself in some way.

What. Using a mature language and not relying on feature of the day will produce a game you can compile 5 years from now and it will just work.

Use SFML or something to provide a cross platform way to create windows and interface with the system and you're pretty much set.

If doing all the drawing and physics code is too much for you to do, use a game engine or a physics library. Those will also compile in 5 years from now and run on other people's computers (assuming you get the source).

It's unfortunate that there are no meaningful visual effects to climate change.

As an example, California took action to clean up tailpipe emissions because people could SEE smog.

And you can say something meaningful like "1 gallon of gasoline creates 20 pounds of CO2" but since CO2 is colorless and odorless nobody really gets it.
Back then it was called global warming. The fundamental force being CO2 acting as a greenhouse gas. This was well understood. In school in the early 90s it was pretty common to see greenhouse gas demonstrations at science fairs.

The question wasn't if it was warming/cooling, but simply how much impact humans were having on the atmosphere. There's a whole lot of atmosphere and humans are very small so it wasn't as clear how big of an impact we were having. Even for people who knew the math there was uncertainty in the inputs. Oil companies were best prepared to know how much CO2 were were releasing because they knew exactly how many barrels a day they were extracting from the ground. Everybody else has to go on public figures that may or may not be accurate.

> Why? Because it's the most elegant way of putting a price on emissions.

I used to agree with this, and now I don't.

A carbon tax has to be an approximation, and there are significant judgement calls on what the total carbon burden of a given product or service might be. This is a recipe for paperwork, loopholes, and a raft of unintended consequences.

Instead, I support an across-the-board carbon sales tax on everything. Use some of this to subsidize carbon-reducing technology at the point of sale. Put the rest of it toward everything else we use taxes for, and make sure that renewable research, nuclear energy, and so on, are adequately funded. UBI? sure, why not; but let's not attach it directly to a climate tax, that only confuses both issues.

There are some exceptions: it's practical to calculate the carbon burden of electricity, and handle the taxation-and-subsidy market directly in that field.
> You get a pattern of electrical impulses.

Is there something else in the brain that's not just protein cascades and electrical impulses? I'd be interested in a published paper describing this structure.

Barring that, yes, experience really is just protein cascades and electrical impulses. A light bulb is orders of magnitude simpler — easily 10 or 12, maybe more; and, that's just spatial; the spatiotemporal complexity might be another 10 or 12 orders of magnitude. I don't think it's any stretch of the imagination to believe qualia arise somewhere between "uniform black body emitter" and "human brain learning and experiencing over time".
My rule of thumb is NASA/JPL/JAXA/ESA are full of far smarter people than me so if I think of it in 5 minutes they definitely thought of it already and have a binder full of reasons it's not the best option.
For people wanting to learn HoTT, I'd rather recommend Rijke's book assembled from his lectures at CMU: https://github.com/EgbertRijke/HoTT-Intro

(Disclaimer: I'm a mathematician working in HoTT and (higher) category theory.)

Like with most advanced concepts in any field, there are lots of misunderstandings pertaining to HoTT. To me, the underlying insight is that the "right" abstract setting for a lot of classical homotopy theory is that of an infinity-topos (whose precise definition is an open question, but we have candidates). Theorems proven in HoTT hold in any infinity-topos, and HoTT is (conjecturally) the internal language of these.

For anything outside of homotopy theory, HoTT isn't (immediately) interesting. It's certainly not trying to provide foundations for set-based mathematics, but for (categorical) homotopy theory, sure.

Some mathematicians take issue with the logic being intuisionistic; e.g. neither the law of the excluded middle, nor double negation hold in HoTT. This is not about constructivity (which I agree, mainstream mathematicians will reject), but about the spaces being modeled. For example, a mainstream mathematician will say that a space is either empty or has a point. However, in the category of bundles over the circle, points are sections; and so the double cover doesn't have any point, for example. Neither is it empty.

> - What does FOSS look like with no-code - do we need some serious FOSS tools in this space?

FOSS traditionally has little interest in this because FOSS volunteers like to write code and, like HN, do not believe (to which I agree) that it is more efficient/flexible than writing code.

These tools have their purposes, but they are not new by any means and this 'generation is not coming', it was there since the 70s. Here is a package from the early 80s [0] which is still supported because people still use it; I for one know a large steel processing plant that runs on it since the beginning of the 80s until now; the guy who wrote the bespoke ERP system cannot actually code well; he stinks (he knows it; I knew him well when I still lived close to him), but it worked well for them with this 'low-code tool' for all these decades.

As I said somewhere; the problem is that FOSS is not interested and that the commercial tools belong either to tiny companies who can be wiped out tomorrow (by 'something') and huge companies who can cancel the product or only have cloud versions so you are locked-in completely. And a lot of people find that scary while almost all textual programming languages and frameworks are open source and free as in speech and beer.

I'm glad other people are having luck with this, but I just couldn't get it to work with my setup. I'm wondering if it's because of the weird MTU and CGNAT on the connections I'd like to bond (300Mbps up and down municipal-ish WiFi).

I was able to get two OpenMPTCProuter installations talking to each other, but downstream traffic wouldn't balance across interfaces, and upstream was limited to 0.25-0.5Mbps (not a typo, and the links on their own have >300Mbps capability). I'll maybe try it again, but for now I have to add this to the pile of solutions that haven't worked for me (including VyOS WAN aggregation, ZeroTier multipathing, and Wireguard and ECMP).
As a not Apple user, I've got way more usb As than usb Cs. All of the laptops I have have at least two usb As, and may only have one C, which is often the charging port. My desktops currently have one usb C each, but since they're mostly useless, my next round will have all As and no Cs. The couple of devices I have with C plugs have attached dongles to A plugs, so I'm not losing anything by preferring A.

I currently use a 6 year old ipad air 2 and it feels very snappy and does everything I use it for well. Apple also tends to stop updates when the hardware is no longer capable of running the next OS smoothly.

I was going to post this same quote as the only bit of substance from the article.

There are many situations where a non-engineer with some programming experience can very quickly string together a few "no-code" tools to build a workflow/tool that scratches 90-100% of their itch.

"Some programming experience" meaning: they understand basic IFTTT logic and can configure API access using a tutorial.

The piping of programs is now done by sync integrations built into the tools, third-party tools like Zapier, or other services that can map and standardize API output.
