I mean honestly, using a credit card for a month before interest hits is usually fine too? My credit limit is like 50k or something ridiculous across all my cards. Not to mention when all in on stocks you can sell for better long-term capital gains tax treatment or even tax loss harvest losses too, which you can't do with a savings account. And ETFs are actually pretty liquid: I can sell and withdraw in a few days if I wanted to anyway.
Hardware companies, and even some legacy software companies, have very different cultures than recent software companies. The 'recent' upstarts like Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc are either powered by massive profit engines or endless VC/investment money. Those places can set standards that aren't achievable by older companies that have lower margins and need to actually show profits.

There is also a cultural difference between hardware engineers, who are usually more 'serious engineers' who actually engineer things vs software engineers who are often less rigorous in their architecture and design. HW folks deal with long lead times and can't usually fix errors after production, so that creates a vastly different culture.
"It's technically possible for you 30 Spartans to defeat 100,000 Persians so go ahead, good luck" doesn't sound like a winning strategy.

I think the overall point here is to have the support of law that says they DO have a duty to you, by benefit of their hosting your account and authenticating you elsewhere.

Then, WHEN someone goes to sue them, the person has much stronger legs in court rather than lone Peggy Sue trying to defeat Google's 300-strong team of lawyers who exist just to eat little guys for breakfast.
For me, it is handy for tracking expenses in various categories (tabs in a given spreadsheet) and it's general availability on my devices so the information is always available to me.
Did you even read the article? It clearly shows that all that's being sent to Apple is some opaque info about the dev certificate used for the app(s).

Despite their size, I think they're still in the startup phase where they have a large number of starry-eyed (pun intended) folks coming in because of the mission. That really is Musk's secret - you can get a lot done churning through people.
Ok, you're not the first to say that...

I hate it, when I type my email and password (correct, that is), and get an error saying "You already have an account. You need to sign in". OK. But would you please just sign me in then. Everything you need is there.

And yes, let's get that widespread adoption
Thanks! Yeah my wife and I stared over a year ago. If you had told me 2 years ago if I would be mostly vegan I would have laughed.

80/20 is a great way to look at it. It cuts out all of the food where you just get chicken or beef and it doesn’t actually add to the meal. Now I opt for vegan choices, but if I’m in a place that makes really great meat options, usually with high quality product, I’ll get one and really appreciate it. Makes meat an actual treat. Though the less meat I have the less I actually want it.
I agree with you. I also think this is great for during the week too. Sometimes a little break and fun distraction is all I need to get past a hard problem.
I used to think that the jargon is stupid. Nowadays I think it is just impractical and prone to abuse. Haskell (or Elm) is not going to become an industry language because the barrier is too high and people love building their tiny islands of expertise. Lowest common denominators are actually a feature of programming languages used by industry. It's why we have languages like Go or Javascript.
Absolutely not because of risk of ruin owing to path dependency. I would recommend 2-3x ETFs instead because there is no risk of ruin but there are still possible path dependency issues.
> It’s a by product of the, mostly beef industry.

You're supporting and putting more money into the beef industry by buying leather though. You don't kill cows directly by buying milk either, but the milked cow will eventually be slaughtered for meat too and its male offspring used as veal.

> I believe more in a overall balance. You can’t get everyone to be vegan, the earth simply can’t support that.

Fair enough, but "vegan" isn't the term to use to describe your beliefs then.
I agree that this particular example makes no sense. If I'm looking to hire a React developer to help me achieve my business goals, what I care about is how proficient is the candidate is in React. Unless it was it was decision of the developer to do the rewrite, the metric is out of context.

Better example built around the engineering skills, which are probably more relevant:

Thank you for the link. That article says the cpu has a 630 op reorder buffer. Does that mean it has to throw out up to 630 instructions on a mispredict? That sounds huge, so I wonder if I’m misunderstanding.
A low effort comment.

Doubly bad, because the actual post is about how Apple doesn't actually do the "tracks your every use of an app" peeping they original post that made all the fuss says they do.

Yeah, years ago my parents used to have trouble with the microwave and the old 2.4 ghz wifi and I fixed it for them by pinning the wifi channel. I don't know if this will take out all of them, or affect nothing (since we have multiple frequencies and better protocols)

Also, Google Play Services isn't Google Play. "Services" actually encompasses nearly every single app on the device, since it's more or less a library rather than an app.

In which case the suit would incorrectly be blaming the store, instead of the real app that is sending the data.

Depends on who gets to choose the curriculum...don't assume it's people you like or fundamentally agree with.

And, if you do put hard limits on the sort of things that should be taught - and from what perspective - then it really sounds like you're saying that in order to have free speech, people should be taught to agree with you.

Edit: to be clear, I like both ideas. But coupling them, saying we shouldn't have one without the other, is dangerous.

> macOS does actually send out some opaque information about the developer certificate of those apps, and that’s quite an important difference on a privacy perspective.

Yes, and no. If you're using software that the state deems to be subversive or "dangerous", a developer certificate would make the nature of the software you are running pretty clear. They don't have to know exactly which program you're running, but just enough information to put you on a list.

> You shouldn’t probably block ocsp.apple.com with Little Snitch or in your hosts file.

I never asked them to do that in the first place, so I'll be blocking it from now on.
Unlikely. There is more Linux devices running as Android on ARM than any other processors. You I can run Termux on ARM Android with complete set of of GNU tools.
Also ARM is supported natively by Debian and Ubuntu [1].

Once devs will sort out their new shiny ARM Macs whoes (Docker, other tooling) I smell there may be ARM server market rising soon.

I wouldn't call what I see in modern times deference. As I described it in my post it's more nationalistic and chauvinistic. There's a big difference.

The basis of international diplomacy isn't discrimination against systems you disagree with, it's about getting most power and resources possible.

Indeed, the US at the same time went hard after Japan whose political system (even though in practice is barely it at all democratic) it created, but courted the Chinese one-party state.

The rest is just rhetoric.
But that's emulated. Emulating a popular video game on a major platform from 1993 isn't all that crazy (not to understate how tricking writing an emulator can be). Having a binary that works on modern hardware and 25+ year old hardware is what's impressive, and it's small enough to fit on a floppy.
I would love to understand the reasoning here. Sincerely.

What makes OIDC a "non starter"?

I see OIDC as an implementation detail, and have no strong opinions about it.
It clearly shows that Apple is getting fed the dev certificate info for each application being launched.

For developers with multiple applications, then sure, that's not going to be as clear as individually identifying the application.

But there are plenty of developers around with just one popular application. Sending the dev certificate for them is effectively the same as sending the application hash itself.
Maybe a more general lesson to learn here is that there are winners and losers in the great events of history. Mask manufacturers are certainly doing well from the current pandemic. Most Australians have only experienced about 2 months of lockdown. While Americans have got pretty much the worst possible pandemic outcome.

In defense of the specifics of history. The french revolution was an incredibly pro-science revolution. Scientists who took advantage of the situation stood to become wealthy and be given the resources to do the science they wanted to.

I concede as often as I can, actually. Partly it's because I view being wrong as a temporary state of affairs, that doesn't reflect poorly on me as a human, and that I can grow from. Partly it's tactical: by conceding, I can focus on more substantive territory, make the conversation less adversarial, and build credibility with others both in the conversation and observing it. I've found it works better than arrogance or insistence.

I chose the sentence I responded to because I thought you were putting focus on the term, specifically where you say people are "technically wrong" because functional languages are "less powerful." My mistake. I was trying to encourage you to consider that the people saying that may be correct in what they mean, even if what they mean doesn't correctly align with the use of "powerful."

Just to point out, as well: you have also had the opportunity to acknowledge that I'm right. If these people are arguing from an incorrect definition of "powerful," as you say, then they are indeed arguing from a different definition of "powerful" than you are. That fulfills what my original comment set out, which is that you and these people are arguing from different definitions.

Perhaps you should have anticipated my focusing on the conversation itself, not because you had boxed me out, but because that was the substance of my comment in the first place.
Can someone explain my why is this significantly less problematic than sending out app hashes? If we accept that most developers don't have many similarly popular apps, then isn't this enough to infer what apps are users running?

In the example from the article: if Mozilla's certificate is sent, then it's very likely that the app that has been opened is Firefox, as the a priori likelihood of using Firefox is way higher than eg using Thunderbird.

If the developer is Telegram LLC, then ... and so on.
I own this one [1]. Defrosting is manual but otherwise it’s the best microwave I’ve ever owned. I also expect it to last for a long time since it’s a commercial grade. Single dial for time.

There are two issues here. One is the privacy problem which I agree is not quite as bad as some think. The second is the stupid fact that if some server goes down you can’t launch apps. That is just awful.
This sounds neat, but the system requirements seem a little odd. Minimum 20 GB of disk space for a stripped down Linux distro?
The delay could be something like 10 minutes...

While other posts on this topic are too alarmist, this one is way too Apple apologetic for my taste.

* There is no information on how often the validation happens. All this investigation concludes is that it doesn't happen when closing and immediately re-opening an app. Is it every week? Every reboot? Every hour? If it's less, that's essentially the same as doing it on every launch.

* There is no justification for sending this information in cleartext. I don't follow the "browsers and loops" argument. This is a system-service that only has to trust a special Apple certificate, which can be distributed via other side-channels.

* Many developers only publish a single app or a certain type of app. So it still is a significant information leak. It's really not much different from sending a app-specific hash. Think: remote therapy/healthcare apps, pornographic games, or Tor - which alone could get you into big trouble or on a watchlist in certain regions.

I assume they will push a fix with better timeouts and availability detection.

But Apple simply has to find a more privacy-aware system designs for this problem which does not leak this kind of data without an opt-in and also does not impact application startup times. (revocation lists?)

I imagine this data might just be too attractive not to have. Such a "lazy" design is hard to imagine coming out of Apple otherwise.
Yup. I am wrong on 1st point. Did not think it through. Sorry. Still 99.9% is too much as the others have already pointed out. The other point (tracking users) I think still stands.
Beautiful! Is sprite rendering the only way to draw pixels to the screen? And is the Audio API of real time synth?
If by your [1] you mean flatulence, Indians (and some other Asians) eat many kinds of legumes (including many kinds of beans, like rajma, lobia, French beans, etc.), on a regular basis, and I, at least, have not heard of flatulence as a common thing among them due to that. Only if you indulge a bit too much in say chana (chickpeas, as in chana masala or puri chole or bhature chole), do you sometimes get gas. Possibly the Indian masala's spices used in those dishes help with digesting the beans, in fact they probably do, since they are the common ones used in Indian cooking, some of which have known digestive benefits, such as cumin, ginger, coriander, asafoetida, etc.

(BTW, tip: just a pinch of asafoetida a.k.a. hing, really improves a dish; the zing of hing :)

Also, I saw a video about nutrition by some scientist, who said that peoples (i.e. nations) who eat beans regularly, develop, over time, the ability (maybe via better gut flora) to digest them more easily, without gas being generated.

But even if it was the former, you must have had some pretty great online support experiences until that point...
> All of the vitamix machines I've seen let pulverized food collect in the threads and quickly begin to smell terrible, because the rubber seal is at the base of the male side rather than the base of the female side.

I've had a single Vitamix for...huh, well over a decade, at any rate, and I've never had this problem with pretty consistent heavy use the whole time we've owned it. Pretty consistently cleaned according to directions, which are as described upthread.
> Maybe the hash is computed only once (e.g. the first time you run the app) and it is stored somewhere.

This would explain why some games take minutes to launch the first time to run them. I've experienced this many times with Steam. You install a game, you launch it, and nothing happens for up to several minutes, and then the game runs. No delays after in launching after that.
Which is still sufficient information to narrow down to the set of applications developed by a single entity. And because this is being done over HTTP, anyone along the network chain has visibility as well.
The hosts file works for now. Use 127.0.0.1 and ::1 on two separate lines. Used tcpdump to verify.

Alex Trebek/What is today's post about?
For anyone that didn't read the article: Without the bulb, the prow slices through the water and causes the water to ride up the sides of the ship.

The bulb on the bow is under the waterline. This forces water up in front of the ship before the prow. The bulb is designed so that the bulb-rise of water cancels the prow-rise of water in destructive interference.

The bulb design only works at certain speeds, water conditions, etc.
/e/ is based on LineageOS, not even the latest at that, and searching on it a bit smells a bit of BS.
Isn't that just with Big Sur? Also, I'm using the hosts file method.
That's an interesting idea! Definitely worth adding to my todo.
Having said that, I need to figure out how to properly read the stream and all, but for sure worth pursuing!
Clearly this article doesn't reveal every truth. Certificates authority should have been decentralized but is it happening?

And just by looking ip address, and app usage and other data they receive they can connect the data and identify its me. And what security has apple provided till now?

"You shouldn’t probably block ocsp.apple.com with Little Snitch or in your hosts file."

That's far better than freezing computer which doesn't work, doesn't run any apps. If I don't need apple mercy and protection please don't force me.

Already installed Linux and its a start.
So, not only apple, but pretty much everyone, can eavesdrop on the HTTP request and find out from which developer I'm running apps from?
No, I am suggesting that in a worst case scenario, an emergency fund full of cash is useless (on a multiple year timescale, of course how many years is subjective).

It’s conceivable to imagine a scenario where resources are so limited that acquiring them becomes a do or die situation, which is what I imagine the previous poster meant by “zombie apocalypse” scenario (or more realistically, war). Or I erroneously assumed “zombie apocalypse” to mean worst case scenario.

I also forgot to include a less drastic measures of also owning assets in a different country and the rights to live there in case you need to immigrate.

Perhaps we just have a different opinion, and that's OK. I don't work at Apple, so I have no deeper insight, other than to me, it looks like the Mac branch has been flailing with no clear direction for some time now. They may have the money to try things, but there no one steering the ship, so to speak.

Not sure whether the non-privacy related aspect about OCSP is less worrying. Officially Apple does this to protect innocent users from malware, but as we've seen it also allows them to remotely disable any developers' software. Not really something that I'd want on my machine.

South Asians are at a higher risk genetically. I don't think diet can be blamed because CVD rates are much higher even when you control for BMI and age, and are higher among those living in America (which skews them towards western dietary habits) compared to other ethnic groups in America.
