I'm still getting used to Catalina (and not happy with some changes from the prior version). Catalina may be my last major version upgrade for a few years.
It might not seem fair as a developer, but as an iPhone user, I don't have any problem with all my apps coming from one trusted store. Just compare it to Windows. Apps can still be downloaded in several inconsistent ways, and it's hard to trust applications you download arbitrarily.
Unacceptable showstopper. Professionals can't afford this nonsense. If I'd not already left the platform, the decision would be forced today.
I wasn't intending to suggest you were contributing to the problem. If others used your tool improperly, that's not your fault. But I can understand why some photographers who have had their content stolen could be upset. As far as Flickr's response in banning your app, it does seem at least misguided. I also wonder if they were concerned about making it too easy for people to move to another platform.
Fair enough. I've been using coc for a while now and can't say I've ever had any speed issues that I've noticed. But if the neocvm language server is built in and "as good" as CoC then that'll be one less plugin I'll need to install when it's ready.
Most OSCP implementations fail-open, not fail-closed. I get the benefits of having it fail-closed, but it should be opt in, because having an always-online requirement for using a mac is ridiculous.
And also, if you decide to implement such a horrible idea, how come you don't have a proper plan for when shit happens?
I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or serious. Schrodinger's sarcasm.
> macOS is my favorite OS, but the shit I put up with...

Idk, the several Linux distros I’ve used recently, and Windows, have a much longer list of “shit _I_ put up with”
Unfortunately there’s not a way to differentiate “we’re online but Apple’s servers are having issues — probably fine” and “we’re online and something something is preventing us from talking to them — something nefarious might be happening.”
I agree with the last paragraph of your comment. However, the “wholly selfish” economic argument for “diverse” workplaces is management consultant bullshit which is not supported by the evidence. Here’s an excerpt from the first article that comes up in those Google Scholar search results:

> The result of [social] categorization processes may be that work groups function more smoothly when they are homogeneous than when they are more diverse … This analysis is corroborated by findings of, for instance, higher group cohesion (e.g., O'Reilly et al. 1989), lower turnover (e.g., Wagner et al. 1984), and higher performance (e.g., Murnighan & Conlon 1991) in more homogeneous groups …

> In contrast to the social categorization (and similarity/attraction) perspective, the information/decision-making perspective emphasizes the positive effects of work group diversity. The starting point for this perspective is the notion that diverse groups are likely to possess a broader range of task-relevant knowledge, skills, and abilities, and members with different opinions and perspectives … Corroborating this analysis, some studies find an association of diversity with higher performance and innovation (e.g., Bantel & Jackson 1989).

> In their simplest form (a main effect of diversity), neither analysis is supported. Evidence for the positive effects as well as for the negative effects of diversity is highly inconsistent (Bowers et al. 2000, Webber & Donahue 2001, Williams & O'Reilly 1998) and raises the question of whether, and how, the perspectives on the positive and the negative effects of diversity can be reconciled and integrated.

The case for workplace diversity needs to be argued on social justice principles, because there isn’t enough evidence for the economic efficiency argument.
Python's biggest hurdle is it's lack of good tooling.

Try building a Unix app, with data in standard Unix locations(bin, shared, lib, etc) and you'll find that you have to write custom code.

> desperate for static-typing

Can you explain why? I honestly don't know, because my experience with C++ was during school ~20 years ago, and since then professionally I've used mostly python in relatively small codebases where it's all my own code (mostly for data processing/analysis). Thanks!

(Although I did have to write some C code to glue together data in a very old legacy system that didn't support C++, much less python. It took a lot more effort to do something simple, but it was also strangely a really rewarding experience. Kind of similar to feeling when I work with assembly on hobby projects)
Linux performs similar checks.
Untrue in my understanding.

The Electron app needs to run to set options or to force filters update, not the rest of the time. It's still an annoyance but it's better than nothing.
I have no memories of that happening. They'll probably tell your not to use the word "guys" in that context though, which is fair imo.

Homebrew is 11 years old. I'm willing to bet there are as many people (likely fewer) people who knew Guido in 2002, when Python was 11 years old, or even 2005, when Google hired Guido.

Had that too. Apparently it checks keyboard firmware? Always-on VPN connections can cause that same issue too. Wake up, can't type. OS eventually prompts you to connect a BT keyboard as none is detected, then that goes away.
Note that SmartScreen has an UI that lets you bypass it without having to disable it system wide, and has a sane timeout (I believe 30 seconds) after which it just pops up a dialogue box telling you that it can't check the binary, allowing you to continue.

But a homelab that's cost 10-100s of hours to setup and maintain to "sparing me the headache of dependency conflicts and TCP port collisions"...

I'm not saying I've proved it has poor payoff. I'm saying I don't believe it has good payoff, similar to all the other alleged "helps me work better" usecases for homelabs.

Homelabs are fun, and a place to learn/experiment.
I would agree with that, although it could still be the case where a tool which technically does not violate any laws is still used to ultimately facilitate illegal activity. In which case I think it would be reasonable for a platform to ban the use of such a tool.

In aggregate what appears to be rounding errors to the employer ultimately makes up an appreciable difference in expenditures.

> If you have a high salary today your employer already has an incentive to get rid of you and replace you with a new grad. It already happens.

This is a little different as the employer is making a trade off between employee experience and employee cost. Employers don't have an incentive to replace an employee with an equally skilled employee at the same market rate, but when the salary is randomly chosen out of a range, employers do have an incentive to replace high rollers with new employees who are statistically likely to roll something lower.
If you wanted the latter you will find more and more that it doesn't exist as the duopoly tightens their grip on the market.
This is _FUD_. it emphatically does not perform similar checks by phoning home to a third party. The closes you will find are SELinux/AppArmor policies, which do not involve the network at all.
The Apple documentation for Hypervisor.framework now explicitly includes references to Apple Silicon, and even ignoring that, they showed Debian running in Parallels back at WWDC during the announcement.

Not really. Desktop icons and email are persisted to non volatile storage.

I'm sure Linux (the kernel) does not. I don't know of any Linux distro that does, but, I'd be curious if you can point to specifics.

Generalization literally means to apply the point to all involved. So no, it's quite appropriate for mgechev so reject generalization if the point doesn't apply to them. And that in no way a rejection of the facts presented. The same way that the generalization "apples are red" can be rejected by the presence of green apples without denying the existence of the red apples.
How is this not congruent with strong privacy protections? Your iPhone knows everywhere you’ve been, but when it sends that info to Apple it doesn’t include any personally identifiable information.
Marine salvage operations can do it. In fact about 21 years ago, a 650 foot ship (the New Carissa) grounded on the beach about 50 miles south of the whale location. It broke apart, but the salvors were able to float and tow a 440 foot section back out to sea to sink it.

This is the future Apple wants I guess, you don't really own your hardware, you simply have a limited license to use it under their very strict terms. It's just a matter of time before Macs become just like iOS.
If your Mac is unambiguously offline it fails open. What it's handling poorly is the fail-slow case.
Right, everything you've said is consistent with my "I'd expect skilled human optimization to make the most difference at the smallest scales: less hot code, changing infrequently, targeting fewer critical (micro)architectures".

In other situations, many folks (including me) get 15% improvements from PGO, and it's hard to take seriously any argument that suggests that can't happen.
I don't think I will give this a shot anytime soon. I'm still unhappy about upgrading 2012 Macbook Air to 2019 Macboook Pro. The main reason for that is that audio setup seems much less stable; there are glitches when I play on output speakers half the time and the audio inteface I use for recording also stopped being reliable. There's also a bug when laptop resets itself in sleep mode unless it's connected power charger. And there's also all 32 bit VSTs I cannot use anymore. I'm really tired of this, I've paying premium for Apple stuff years ago so I don't have to mess around with small issues like that (which occurred all the time on my linux machine), but now this experience is gone. I'm slowly leaning to agree with my linux/windows friends that I've wasted money.
What sort of workflows are you creating that end up being better served with emails + Excel?

Most of the time, I see _more_ issues when teams over rely on Excel files. Data inconsistencies abound, audit trails are nearly impossible, and security access is difficult to manage. The end goal for most processes is to limit the amount of human touch-points... not increase it.
This was what was sent to us:

Your account has been upgraded to Stripe Billing for free. No matter how much revenue you process on Stripe, you’ll get unlimited use of Billing’s Starter plan included in the price you currently pay for payments. All new features are available in your account now, no API version upgrade necessary.

If Stripe pushed ahead forcing an additional 0.5% with no new features adopted, that's pretty predatory and the kind of rent seeking that will leave a bad taste in a lot of people's mouth which then when starting new projects won't be looking to adopt Stripe with the same passion they did years ago.
Netflix could've easily gotten a coalition to fight that in court. They didn't because they're a major player in the market. Doing this helps drive out competitive streaming platforms when the cable providers begin gouging them. That's why they also coughed up to the others access providers without them doing the same thing as Comcast.

They're just playing pretend as a victim. They want people to believe what they're doing is right. In actuality their hedging to become the next version of Cable TV. With how bad Disney's revenue has been going this year, I wouldn't be surprised that if they keep taking hits like this, we could potentially see an acquisition or merger between the two.
This seems to explain why my Mac was nearly unusable after a reboot last week. Turns out bind crashed on my firewall leaving me with no DNS.

Slow Startup Development Flow
It's a startup with 4 developers.
Our lead developer is testing all backend/frontend pull requests before getting merged. it usually take 4 or 5 days to get some comments from her. because other developers also have pull requests waiting for her comments.
so it's normal to manage 3 or 4 branches at once. couldn't focus one feature or functionality.
and also I have to think which feature/fixes are there in the branch which i am switching to. plus conflict errors...
I am afraid if we can get some result by 2022...

please share how the development flow look like if you're currently working for a startup.

Why is Bitcoin price surging, will it be surprising to see it goto $100k?
Part of it is that, when we're talking about a traditional computer (contrasted with a phone), all of that stuff happens in the web browser these days. The average user's native binaries are mostly limited to said web browser, some work communication apps, maybe a notes app, maybe some dev tools or office tools or media tools depending on the person. Nothing remotely interesting to advertising companies. Maybe that will change with the new iOS app support, but I kind of doubt it.

And anyway, when we are talking about a phone, it would be literally impossible to run an app store without recording (and personally identifying!) that information. Maybe that's one more argument to allow third-party app stores, which I'm not against (though who knows if they're more trustworthy with that data?), but nevertheless.

My point is that in the grand scheme of privacy concerns, this is a very silly hill to die on. In the grand scheme of system reliability, on the other hand, it's totally legitimate to be upset that this effectively took down thousands of expensive workstations across the world for a few minutes.
Sure, but it sounds like Gates was taking issue on the basis of interpretability
> It should be to figure out how we prevent useful tools from being taken down

I would argue that recognizing the reason that useful tools are taken down, even if you argue that reason is not legitimate, is an important part of figuring out how to stop those tools from being taken down.

> Also, if you don't want something downloaded, don't post it on the Internet in the first place.

I understand the argument although I do wish photographers could be free to post their work without fear of others taking it.
> Docker w/ arm linux kernel + x86 userland images

as mentioned in the issue comments: Docker x86 version already supports running ARM images via qemu out of the box on Windows and Mac, so x86 images via qemu on ARM host should not be a problem...
tl;dr: Apple no longer builds computers.

After 11 years of MBPs as my main computer, I left because of crappy hardware (keyboards, missing Esc and Fn keys). I'm now very happy on a System76 laptop running PopOS.

With each new release of the OS, getting more and more locked down, I am happier that I moved on when I did.

The long term trend with Apple is for their computers to get more and more closed. First hardware, and now software. I get that for a phone, but it is completely antithetical to what a COMPUTER is supposed to be. They really should stop calling these things computers.

Huh.

After typing the above, I decided to check. THEY DO NOT call Macs "computers". I searched the pages for MBPs, iMacs, and Mac Pros. They use the word "computer" in connection with trade-ins, (for the thing you are trading in), and they use the phrase "computer system" in fine print, and never to refer to their products directly.

APPLE, IN THEIR OWN WORDS, NO LONGER BUILDS COMPUTERS. That explains so much.

Misleading headline. From the abstract of the underlying study:

"Interest fit significantly predicts overall job satisfaction."

What the article and the paper's abstract (because I didn't pay for it) say is that it IS a predictor, but not in the absence of other factors like a good culture.

Which makes sense- I love coding, but I've (thankfully rarely) been on dysfunctional teams. Despite still liking to code, I did not like my job when on a terrible team.

On the other we might as well view every year spent locked down as a year wasted. So with an average life expectancy of 80 years you’d be throwing away an entire lifetime for every 80 people you lock down. That’s a 1.23% death rate, it’s not yet clear that COVID is worse.

BioNTech: Modest German Turkish couple doesn’t own a car
I'm not sure where you live but in the United States, in some states, children are required by law to ride in the back seat of an automobile until they are, I believe, 8 years of age. I believe that various state and federal agency recommendations are for children to ride in the back seat of an automobile until they are 13 years of age.

Presumably, then, parents are not putting their young children who cannot operate a car door into the front seat of a car and leaving them.

Pets? Sure, that's a different story.

I hope people finally realise what a terrible company Apple is and stop buying their products once and for all. I cannot understand why such atrocious decisions are magically forgotten when they release a new iPhone or a new Macbook. Every time there is a new Apple launch (service or product), it is almost always projected onto the front page of HN with hundreds if not thousands of upvotes.
That's unrelated to my comment. I was simply responding to the astoundingly wrong claim that "My personal data involves what I do within those apps, not which ones they are."
I'd have to think the internal risk team at SoftBank is not going to do anything but 'warn' the partners. If the parnters believe in their own koolaid ... (hey, we are 'world class investors, look how much money we raised') it's an easy trap for them to fall into.

Paradoxically - even just being a 'true series D/E fund before IPO' is a really great concept, they should stick to it. WeWork, Uber etc are actually good investments if managed properly. If they reigned in Adam at WW it might have worked out better.
