A social network grows old with its user base.Here in India,new users don't signup to FB but Instagram.New users wanna be where their peers are.Younger users don't wanna be where "old" people are (Except for WhatsApp ).

"Facebook.com" will surely die in India.But Instagram and WhatsApp won't die.FB as a company won't die.Whenever a new social network which can beat FB (by attracting younger generation) comes up,Zuck buys it.So as long as acquisitions are done,FB(company) won't die.
Is it progress, though? If the React paradigm is so much better, you'd expect some kind of UX renaissance stemming from its adoption. Instead, we're still struggling with Electron-based apps that are "prettier" but less productive than what we had 20 years ago, back when they were written in UI frameworks that barely even had any data binding at all.
Check out pre-workout with Beta Alanine. When I've taken it I can "feel" my muscles more while lifting, it's fantastic. Really helps you get more out of your workout and get into your rhythm in the gym.

They sure do, but you also have access to all the parts needed to maintain your own instance and so does everyone else. Failures, when they happen, are limited to instance who aren't "functioning perfectly" instead of extending to every user of a centralized system.

Just to keep everyone reading this thread on the same page: The point of failure being discussed here is the human factor. See comment ancestors for context.
You can also be thinking about trying to set your grandchildren up with a small inheritance (e.g. down payment on a moderate home). I wouldn't consider that dynastic wealth (they will still need to work) but it goes a long long way to making your grandchildren's life much, much easier.
> The advice we give people today is don't have a password, have a passphrase," said Lee.

What is meant by this? Is the distinction between "word" and "phrase?" As in "don't have 'horse' have 'correct-horse-battery-staple'" because that's a "phrase?"
On 9/11 I was a junior in high school. I joined the US Army in 2003 at 18 and served in the Rangers.

I had a deployment to Afghanistan in 2004 and three to Iraq(2005, 2006 x 2).

I’m 35 now and the wars are finally near an end. Had I had kids younger, they could have been deployed in the same war.

Roughly 7,000 Americans were killed, 50k+ wounded, not to mention then hundreds of thousands of men, women and children killed.

I’m glad the GWOT era is coming to an end and hope we can learn from all the mistakes we made along the way.

I commented on your Twitter post already, but I'll reiterate here. This is not a vulnerability, it is as intended. By default, you can only install Applications via the App Store on Big Sur, and AppProxyProvider only affects Applications installed via this method.

This has the dual-benefit of protecting casual users, and allowing power-users flexibility with any binaries that aren't sandboxed. From what I understand of your example, you used the bundled python installation to make the connection, the python binary is not sandboxed and is not affected by AppProxyProvider. This will be the case with any other binaries as well -- ping, ssh, etc...

That's true, but if you stop watching a couple of hours before your usual bedtime, it generally is not a problem. You have to be disciplined about it.
What did I say that is no longer true now?
I definitely feel worse since daylight savings started. Now when work is done, the sun is completely gone. A few weeks ago, there was at least a hint of it and an evening walk could be done during a sunset. Not so much anymore. It feels like I'm working even more now and I know I'm not even working that many hours physically. (Mentally tho...) I do know that I let more negative thoughts in as the night grows. It's one of the reasons I hate short days and daylight savings. The more night, the more I'm inside wishing I could get out of this shit hole.

Felt depressive symptoms? Almost everyday for over a decade. Would I say I'm depressed though? No. And that's not due to stigma of it or something. I see a therapist but I don't feel depressed and he doesn't seem to think I'm depressed. There's something special about what I'd consider depression. Something where you're depressed because there's a hopelessness to your situation and it's somewhat unreasonable to feel that way for as long as you have. I think of it like: "Is someone who is being tortured everyday in a prison cell and know there's no chance they'll be able to escape depressed if they're acting sad all the time?" <-- I feel that way in my life at times because that's what I deal with. It isn't physical torture but more of emotional and psychological. Knowing that you could maybe make it in an area but are not and might not ever... it's draining. When you're completely on your own for it and no one you've ever grown up with has ever gotten anywhere near where you're at or done things like you've done... And the work is terrible and the people are horrible. And no one can support you except yourself...

It just... well, it's draining. So, I feel drained most days. Depressed? Not really. Again, if the context was different, I'd feel fine and be quite happy day to day (give me money, give my a nice manager, give me decent work). It's that the context is so bad. I tend to think of depression as... almost no matter the context, you're gonna be sad and not enjoying things. I still enjoy stuff - it's just that I have that nagging thought of how I need to keep pushing... I need to get further because I'm still so far behind from what I wanted to be. And I don't know how to get there because I've never seen anyone like me do it.

One could make the claim that 20 years of US involvement in the Mideast has created unstable power structures that requires perpetual military support to maintain. There’s no guarantee that N more years of additional military involvement will stabilize this power dynamic.
If it's slow in developing countries, it is gonna be slow in smaller towns as well as rural areas in US and Canada, and depending on where the closest Apple server is, perhaps all of Australia and New Zealand.
Quite a lot in salary negotiations. FAANG tend to down-level people from less prestigious companies. 5 years at a FAANG will usually land you a senior engineer position at other FAANG's, 5 year at non prestigious will land you one step lower. The difference is about $50-$100k a year.
That's true... you are right. You have to have the basics first (shelter and food). But I am talking to folks that have some shelter, and income, yet still feel depressed due to the whole pandemic thing.
Ok, I think you are just playing word games here, using one very broad interpretation of the word eugenics when you say that gene editing is eugenics, and then a narrower interpretation of the word when you say that there are strong ethical claims against it. Things like forced sterilization are obviously unethical but the reasons have absolutely nothing to do with gene editing. Maybe we could make this more concrete if you gave some specific examples of the ethical claims against eugenics that you are referring to, which you think also apply to gene editing. Also, if you are talking about public appetite, I think it's worth observing that this is the first time I've heard someone compare gene editing to eugenics (I'm sure it's been done before, but it certainly doesn't seem common), and your comment is at the very bottom of the page.

> Would be great actually if anyone had tips on how to get exercise habits to stick.

Try picking up martial arts or dance. Learning a skill while exercising may help with both the being novelty-deprived and the exercise habits. That being said, both of those are hard to pick up alone, and COVID is still here. You may be able to find live-streams or something to help with that.
> Much of that money was borrowed.

I'm not seeing how that is relevant. There are boots on the ground & bombs in the air. Someone is fronting real resources. There is no possible return on these resources. In fact, the return is negative since the US is taking fairly normal Middle Easterners and presumably making enemies for life.

A situation has been set up that is even worse than borrowing resources to support an unproductive and unsustainable lifestyle. This is borrowing resources to ruin random strangers lives. Those resources could have been used for any inane project and literally everyone is better off.
Well...Although I am happy in 'regular' life, it seems the more you linger over the constant stream of humanities affairs the more desperate (and depressing) it seems...

HN promotes interesting discussion; MacOS breaks because Apple's servers are pooped, Google is sued for using mobile data to send them data, privacy concerns in every major OS while the EU is focused on taking down content in record times and abolishing encryption or mandating access to every data record created by any EU citizen that must be stored for the rest of time, increasingly AI is used to judge our posts for compliance and sometimes it makes mistakes such as when Youtube goes haywire and bans/deletes you because it doesn't understand nuance/context as you try to raise a twitter/reddit/PR storm and "we're very sorry this happened, your channel is blessed again until next time", at the same time there's misinformation everywhere as the world's top authorities such as the POTUS is knowingly spreading FUD causing anger and division in society and leading to real world consequences (even death in some cases) as it is apparent Twitter is out of control yet they love the attention said POTUS has provided their platform yet if you look at comments/replies it's just insanity, yet we keep feeding the algorithms that are implicit in our own bias and whatever is promoted to us must be the truth whilst opposing viewpoints are hidden in favor of your own beliefs that these algorithms keep you locked in to, as people's entire experiences of what was once the beautiful web had to offer is now witted down to just a few small platforms, giants such as Amazon use its leverage to remove competitors it dislikes and is often 'the' marketplace people frequent impacting smaller businesses as they struggle to compete on Amazon's terms as local services (such as libraries) need FB to advertise their affairs to the local community otherwise the information doesn't exist and again has real-world consequences...And yet we carry on day by day as if everything is fine and dandy...

...So yeah, life is great! but don't worry, I am sure some super AI knows who is writing this message and will ding me a few points on the scale...Let's hope it's enough to keep them at bay and not get sent off (there was news a while back about an 'AI' studying for suicide references in a games chat and alerting the authorities, I kid you not).

Or make “identity theft” a problem for the banks and institutions that want to use digitally entered 9 digits and birthdate as some sort of authentication.

If a bank or whoever gets defrauded by someone claiming they are someone else, that should be the bank’s problem. Everyone has a smartphone today with a video camera and data.

What are some things you do have that you appreciate?
Yeah, I remember when their hardware announcements were pretty much airtight. Up to Apple black-balling Gizmodo from all events after Gizmodo got ahold of an unreleased iPhone an employee had lost. Even then the phone was disguised inside the shell of an older model. [0]

The person that found the phone only poked around after he was confused when it went bricked a few hours later (remotely done by Apple). Then they actually tried to get it back to Apple, and got blown off. That's when they contacted Gizmodo. I think Apple was pissed that Gizmodo paid $5,000 to get it from the finder and didn't return it immediately to Apple without question or inspection.

> I didn't really grok why we use sines and cosines.

As has been pointed out elsewhere in this thread, they have nice mathematical properties. But another important thing is that they typically work "well enough" for applications. Consider audio. Tones clearly have frequency, but they also have a position in time. Doing a sine-cosine decomposition of a whole song doesn't really make sense, since it has no way of saying that a tone on the piano is played at a given time.

So you would think that it would make sense to break the signal down into stuff with frequency and time. Some kind of wavelet probably. Maybe something that very accurately models what a human hears.

The thing is that chopping the audio stream up into windows, and decomposing those windows into sines and cosines, while a bit ad hoc, just works well enough.

No yeah, I wrote in my article that this thing is “amazingly intense, aggressive, rooted in French military pride and filled with the glories of warmongering.” But the gist is that they look into it to make sure they don’t repeat mistakes and so that they understand their past so they can better appreciate how good life is now.
Come on downvoters, you can do better than -2. I know, I criticized Apple's old OS, I deserve it.
I’m a former user of venlafaxine. The highest dose I was on was 150 mg. It really helped me out. I used it mainly to combat my anxiety but it helped with depression as well. The side effects were not great which is why I stopped. Tapering off was terrible — flu-like symptoms, mind racing at night, couldn’t sleep, sweats, etc. Would not recommend. The one thing I can say is that I do not feel like the same person having been off these meds for a long time.
The assumption that 'intervention is war' and 'withdrawal' is peace is really short-sighted.

The world is a balance of power, every move changes that dynamic.

Complete American withdrawal in Europe may have seen Putin do what he did in Crimea also in the Baltic states or possibly further, which creates the conditions for the possibility of 'real war' which would draw the US back in anyhow.

The US is the 'lynch pin' of peace between Israel and Egypt, and keeps most the Arab peninsula more or less under wraps. The #1 recipient of foreign aid from the US is Egypt, of course a Muslim country, this surprises a lot of people - it's to keep Isreal/Egypt tensions under wraps. Because they have not had 'hot fighting' in a generation, most of us don't think about that as the 'problem spot' but really it is - if that broke down it would suck the entire region into a bad black hole of fighting.

Without the US to protect House of Saud (and it doesn't need to even fire a bullet for that, just the credible threat of retaliation is enough) and their Sunni neighbours, Iran and Saudi Arabia would be going at each other, and though they don't have plans to 'invade' each other, it would break out into something ugly probably very quickly.

The populists in Egypt (i.e. Muslim Brotherhood) could easily gain power, and their more radical factions would turn 88M people against Israel and that's a real problem, imagine the pro-Trump vs. anti-Trump rallies we see this weekend, but 100x as big, right on the Egypt/Isreal border - maybe neither government wants it, but as soon as 'someone dies' then they are forced to react and it gets swiftly out of hand. If 88M people 'want blood' then war is innevitable.

And Iran's intransigence, though obviously fuelled by the US somewhat - is real.

(Aside from 'total breakdown' of power i.e. E. Syria in which case some radical group like ISIS will take power)

The 'piece on the board' that would 'make the system peaceful' if it were to be removed is point blank Iran, that's obvious.

Yemen, the Gulf, Syria, Shia Iraq, Kurdish lands, and Lebanese instability via Syria ... it's Iran.

The US forces in the M/E right now are not fighting for the most part, this is no longer Gulf War, so the 5th fleet + support is well placed.

There is so much 'inherent instability' there it would fall apart very quickly. The availability of Oil money, concentrated into a few hands of people with personal and ideological vendettas is just too much. (Of course the real 'piece on the board were it to be removed would mean peace' is Oil).
> That is a very rose-colored glasses viewpoint.

No, it's factual. I didn't say there were no wars; I said there were fewer than at any time in human history.

If our standard is perfection, then every human endeavor has failed and we should return paleolithic life. People still die of illness, so we could argue that modern healthcare has failed; don't bother using it. Regarding the UN, in politics there is no certain proof ever of cause and effect, so arguably we should eliminate all political institutions.

The lack of war is the fact. The parent's theory of why or how and its predictions have no basis that I see.
There are almost certainly homozygous recessive genetic diseases that can be treated if a subset of cells are able to replace the deficient enzyme.

Biopsy some cells, treat with CRISPR, return the cells.

I'm pretty on the record about CRISPR being overhyped, but to say nothing will ever be cured by CRISPR is too far.
As much as I want these wars to end, they should leave it to the Biden administration to figure it out. I'm concerned this is GOP strategy simply trying to gum up the works and cause headaches for the Democrats. Anything they can do to obstruct and then use that to rally uninformed voters in the midterms in 2022 and the next presidential election.
All of those tools are just awkward to use compared to a whiteboard.

Apple has all but guaranteed that my current Mac will be my last. I have been using Macs since the Mac IIx, and my first Mac laptop was the Powerbook 190.

The only reason that I have my Mid 2018 Macbook Pro, is that I bought it in Budapest after my previous machine died, and the reseller Apple store was the only one that stocked English keycaps for the keyboard (they did have to unbox and change the keycaps).

My technology choices are starting to feel frustratingly niche. I am using Apple over Linux because I tired of having to mess around with the systems constantly to get things working. ItJustWorks™ is a powerful driver.

If I'm being honest with myself, it's also a question of access to paid apps. If I list all the apps I use on a daily basis, a bunch of them are Mac only, and an even smaller set run on Linux (even if they have a Windows version as well).
The penalty for mishandling mandatory/essential data like social sec numbers, medical and driving records should be much much higher than just normal PII data. It’s not like I can opt out of having a social security number. It’s forced on us and then we can get completely screwed over if someone we didn’t even know had the info allows it to be breached. Also this nonsense about allowing government contractors in and out of information critical systems like that needs to go away. It’s only done because they can’t attract talent with competitive government wages.
