You can wait to wake up to a totalitarian government biting you on the nose, but some of us remember that Mussolini was a journalist and rose to power in the media and don't want to let it get that far.

I agree with you, this is something that I seem to believe deeply. But why is it important? Do they ask you that? What do you/would you tell them?

I tried "us election fraud" on both sites in private mode. The results are certainly very different but I don't see any indication of google omitting anything. You're already using a throwaway so you might as well provide some specifics.
but you pay for the distribution / tools / OS etc is a common sentiment I see here. No, the yearly fee should pay for that, and the user for the OS. And anyways, what if I don't want to, why cant I distribute it myself?

Windows 10 S is how they would do it. It's optional, for now. But that's mostly because it hasn't been successful. If Microsoft was able to get more apps on the Windows Store, I have no doubt they would start introducing Windows 10 S devices that can't be unlocked to full Windows.

> I do not see them lasting 30 years.

High mileage Tesla's show that the batteries last somewhere between 300,000 and 500,000 miles. Which is 25 to 40 years based on the median number of miles people drive per year.

> People want the latest and greatest.

Lot of people just want an affordable way to get from point A to B with a minimum of hassle and expense. The game changer with electric is if the batteries and motors last 25 to 40 years then the rest of the car needs to match that.
[UPDATE] googled it.. found it but not by individual "Ask HN" but a particular topic in general.

Now if they can just narrow it down to each daily topic...
I've come to the conclusion that such inept statements can only come from people who have lived their lives in very safe environments where they have never needed police protection. Such environments do not represent the safety of the country or the world in general.

It strikes me as odd that someone as familiar with history as yourself would single out the US and the practice of slavery whereas slavery has existed almost everywhere in the world, including here in Europe. Yet nobody in Europe thinks that the formerly enslaved peasants' much temporally disconnected descendants are substantially worse off because of that or that this would somehow translate into today's policing.

In conclusion, abolishing the police is a completely stupid idea that the American people in general do not even support [1] that hurts not the tech elites of Silicon valley, but normal people living in high-crime areas.

Good point. Leaflet could be another implementation option since Mapbox free tier gives you 50,000 loads of their JS client (unlimited tiles per load) and 750,000 raster tiles. [1]

So you could alternate loading Mapbox JS and loading Leaflet with Mapbox tiles.

Can I ask for some kind of documentation or reference for the causal relationship you are asserting here? Specifically a documented example of a democratic government that has deliberately restricted education on manipulation techniques because it might make their own use of it less effective.
(Googler, opinions are my own. I also work on backend payment systems there). Also, this is a copy/paste from the other thread that never hit the front-page.

A fun technical piece here is that this expands on the Google Pay for India app, which is built on Flutter for android and iOS[0]. As well, it's great to see Plex (bank accounts) officially announced, though it was talked about ~1 year ago here[1].

Caramel: An OCaml compiler that provides a fast type-checker for Erlang
I think the biggest pull back / time sink with Tailwind isn't the CSS, it's the (lack of) JavaScript.

With Bootstrap you have a bunch of common things handled for you out of the box (dropdowns, modals, tooltips and like 100 other things you can easily find on Google since the community is massive). You can just drop these widgets into your template and get going. Often with just 1 or 2 lines code if you're using Yarn + Webpack.

With Tailwind you're on your own for all of that unless you buy Tailwind UI and even then it's only JavaScript solutions with the libraries the authors have chosen to use and it's no where near as feature complete vs the JS widgets you get with Bootstrap, even if you only count what's officially bundled with Bootstrap.

Both of those things are kind of problematic for someone who isn't super strong on the front-end and doesn't want to invest a lot of time designing these things from scratch (a full time job in itself). Especially if you want to use something like StimulusJS instead of Alpine or Vue, since Tailwind UI doesn't seem to include any examples for StimulusJS. There's a whole bunch of folks out there (like me) who aren't building SPAs. We're just using good old server rendered templates with sprinkles of JavaScript.

With that said I still prefer using Tailwind, but it's not really near the level of productivity you get when buying a very well supported $30 Bootstrap theme (ES6 JS, Webpack, etc.) and get going on your project without having to worry about implementing every last line of JS behavior.

I'm sure Tailwind will get there with better JS support. I've seen some of Adam's tweets on how he plans to address this problem but I don't think there's a time line on when all of that will be ready to go, or if it'll all be locked into Tailwind UI only (about $250).
I mean, that’s a damn impressive video. In the moment I totally want to throw out all other CSS and dive in.
I would also recommend “The Conversation” (1974). Not because the vision of surveillance is up to date, but because it’s a much better movie and (sort of) prequel to “Enemy of the State”.
Thanks for telling me about Photon! I see that it's provided by Graphhopper, who in my experience have been absolutely excellent with technical support about Map Matching. I wish I could choose a subset instead of 53GB for the whole world so I could run it on my phone, but it's certainly realistic to run on my laptop.

How is it so obviously not heroin? I, a fully-formed and functioning adult, feel the pull in my brain. I was addicted to cigarettes in my 20s and I've had unhealthy relationships with numerous other drugs and video games that I've (mostly) managed to pull myself away from, after years. The feeling of "checking your notifications" and "scrolling through twitter" on your phone are remarkably similar to the compulsion for drugs. This is my personal subjective experience and I believe objective research confirms it as well.

>Poland blocked human rights sites

I'm Polish and although some gambling sites are blocked here (hazard.mf.gov.pl), I haven't heard of a single case of a human rights site being censored.
I understand that 30% is big, and does have an impact on some business models, but it also acts to align the incentives of the platform-developer with those of the app developer. The fact that Apple makes a bunch of money off apps makes it beneficial for them to continue supporting the ecosystem, by providing APIs, functionality, and other support.

What surprises me most about Apple's model is why they don't offer better support to developers. It seems that iOS the 'rich users', whereas Android has the 'cheap users', so Apple doesn't even bother improving the developer experience.
I was unable to find the paper the article claims was published about this, which is a shame because I'd love to learn more about what the researchers actually said. The mechanism described in the Yahoo article is implausible to say the least (TANSTAFFL principle: if you could reverse aging by simply lengthening telomeres, there would have been significant evolutionary pressure for increased expression of telomerase, so unless it came with sufficiently bad downsides, you would expect it to have already reached fixation in the population). Still, I would be interested to see what the researchers themselves actually say.

I did find a related article, titled "Telomere elongation followed by telomere length reduction, in leukocytesfrom divers exposed to intense oxidative stress – Implications for tissueand organismal aging" [1]. I would expect the actual findings here were similar to that article.

Do people think Apple is running a fucking charity?

It’s business. Grow up, deal with it.
losing freedom of speech is much easier than re-gaining it.
Counterpoint: The lawsuit isn't alleging that Apple doesn't do the same thing. It only alleges that the data is more than necessary.

So the case is purely about whether it's too much logging data, not whether there is any logs at all. And since we measure that logging in actual bits sent over the air, then yes, it comes down to a technical spec.

I would be absolutely shocked if the court ruled as you suggest. That would be tantamount to suggesting that the business model of every website is illegal.
It seems like the author was contributing to react-diagrams.
How is it ad hoc? You're creating a class .button, but you're using the Tailwind-specified design system. This is how the framework is meant to be used!

Atomic/utility-first CSS doesn't mean that you shouldn't make classes. It just means that you should make them where they make sense. Don't make a new class just to add a margin to something,or whatever. If the margin is literally all this element needs, use the utility class directly. If it's the only place you'll use this combination of classes and naming the combination doesn't add anything, you might as well just keep it inline.

But if you find yourself repeating a bunch of utility classes, make a class with a semantic name once you start seeing the pattern. In some cases, like buttons, you might see that pattern before you've even started. That's fine. You should definitely have a button class (or three).

What you (probably) shouldn't have a is .info-page__navigation__aside__second_button that just includes the button class and adds a margin, or whatever... like we did at my old job. Urgh. I refer to this as "might as well be inline CSS" - making extremely specific classes that are only used once. If your CSS classes aren't reusable, all you gain from not having it inline is the joy of maintaining two text files, and manually look up the cross references. Tailwind solves this perfect, IME.
You don’t need to be using a JS framework to have components. Pretty much any server-side templating language allows extracting “components” in the form of reusable HTML fragments. And even if you’re serving static HTML, there’s plenty of ways to compile a template into a static file.
I have no idea how you can keep telling yourself that when the top 10 shared links on Facebook have been nothing but conservative conspiracy theories for over 12 months straight.
So, I'm somehow developing a pro-Apple bias these days. This whole batterygate to me is kind of based on conjecture-- that Apple slowed old phones with the intention to sell more new ones. If there's any supporting evidence, or anything that's come up in discovery that Apple acted in bad faith, I'd possibly change my (admittedly biased) mind.

But really, slowing the phones down to extend battery life is a reasonable tradeoff and there's just not a preponderance of evidence suggesting Apple acted in its own interests and hurt existing users. The main problem is this "feature" wasn't out in the open, but again, it just doesn't seem that bad to me.
You don't mean to be mean, but then follow it up with such a tasteless and repugnant comment. God help those in your life if this really is your attitude towards living, breathing humans.
Product Market Fit should be your ONLY North Star (until your reach it)
This is fine to analyze (and I am sure there are thousands of research papers on internet censorship) but what about big tech censorship? Will that ever be included in all these research papers? What about big tech violating their own policies vis-à-vis content moderation, shadow banning and banning accounts without a proper reason? I feel censorship is more layered that it doesn't make sense to only hold Governments responsible. Hold everyone accountable. Not just the Government.

I find it funny that we crib about Government or ISP censorship while completely ignoring big tech censorship. When it comes to big tech, we give them a shield of "oh they are private companies and can do what they want". The nature of the organization has nothing to do with censorship (which is more a moral issue than a legal issue).
The most recent podcast for Star Talk Radio ( https://www.startalkradio.net ) which, admittingly is much more of a layman's level than deep science, was about black holes.

Ah, but that was intentional! We didn't want people to really understand statistics, because that was governments' favourite tool to control the masses. ;-)

I agree with you wholeheartedly, but capitalism has allowed this kind of thing for generations.

Mining magnates should be forced to work at the coalface. The Waltons should be forced to stock shelves, Bezos should be in the distribution centres.

The list is endless, and unfortunately this is nothing new. The best we can do is minimum wage laws and unions to try and "negotiate" with billionaires to give us a crumb.
Is the cold rational Apple answer that you signed a contract when enrolling as an Apple Dev?
haha interesting, I think I was trying to emphasis personal preference, some of what picking a framework comes down to.
All the things you mentioned are already fixed and most have had reasonable workarounds for a while. Some are still working their way through the distros so it's still a work in progress in places but it also has unique upsides from the Xorg experience.
To me the lack of type checking support in svelte (or vue) templates alone is already a mayor 'developer experience' deficit compared to tsx.
That's an improved TPM/TPM successor. Those don't lock you out of anything Secure Boot wise, it's just not what they're designed for.
Because Apple decided that only software they approve of can be used on machines they sell unless the user explicitly allows software Apple hasn't accepted (via ctrl-click). On iOS, Apple decided that users can't allow untrusted software at all. Users still end up paying $400-$1400 for phones that run this software, so the 'free market' has decided that users want a software model like this (otherwise Android would be an even bigger player in the US than it is now).
Since my experience is the complete political reverse of what you describe (liberals getting away with things that conservatives assume they never could), I think the real answer is that probably there is less censorship in general than people assume.

And I suppose that's probably a good thing.

> And all this still isn't relevant because we are talking about government censorship.

Agreed that the article is about government censorship, and I commented before I read the article.

However, given that the US government at least has shown very little backbone in its threats to regulate social media companies, their tendency toward more censorship also seems concerning.
That seems like a try-hard. Unless Linus intended "master" to mean "owner", drawing parallels to other VCS is purely speculative. If Linus really intended "master" in git to mean "owner"... where are the "slaves"?

Or are you saying Linus made the default branch "master" because of systemic racism ingrained into him from previous VCS?
> bleed into other industries

And what would be so bad about this exactly? The comparison is oft made with closed stores for gaming consoles; but I don't see why regulating console manufacturers to require side-loading or third-party stores would be such a bad thing. There's no law of the universe which dictates that their business model be per-unit loss-leaders for game revenue splits.
I was just thinking that it might be nice to form playlists of short stories from multiple books/authors. There's probably a bunch of lists (award winning, by genre, era etc). Seems a shame to enforce the bundling at a book level.
Then why the billion dollar AI if a simple if-else suffices?

Also, how about suggesting products that are actually good. That would raise revenue by 2000%.
Citation? I did a little digging of my own, because I found this claim to be uncharacteristic of any company I've ever worked for. I did find some restrictive clauses, but I don't think they are as broad as you are suggesting.

You can't use Google's fully-trained models as a reference in order to train your own models. Lower-level uses of TPUs to train your own models from your own training data are unrelated to those restrictions.

Certainly nothing in the Acceptable Use Policy looks anti-competitive to me.

Obvious disclaimer is obvious: IANAL.
Over the span of 5 years, I wrote and maintained a react application that grew to about 100k LOC. I migrated it over time from createClass to classes to functional components, from JavaScript (w PropTypes) to Flow to TypeScript, from webpack to RCA, from flux to redux. I feel that in these comparisons what tends to be missing is what options each framework present when your code base reaches a size when the current structure becomes a burden. React fairly easily allowed gradual improvements, adding typing without needing a massive rewrite, codemods, RCA, etc.

Whenever I've looked at Vue, I can't help but get the feeling that you're likely stuck with what you started with. When I look at a Vue component vs it's TypeScript equivalent, I can't say I see a trivial upgrade path.
Right. I think the question though is why isn't somebody fixing this situation? There's money sitting on the table for them when they figure it out and get their act together.

This COL argument only makes sense if everyone rents and regional wealth is ignored.

Say I buy a condo in SF and a colleague buys something equivalent in Iowa. Our employer pays us borh so we have equivalent revenue after mortgage.

After 20 years I can sell my condo, move to Iowa, buy his condo and then two more like it.

This is now way to put it that makes this fair.

Are you intentionally trying to gaslight people? This is just straight up false. See Kathy Griffin holding a bloody Trump - a tweet which she’s retweeted multiple times.
>While the United States saw a small uptick in blocking, mostly driven by individual companies or internet service providers filtering content, the study did not uncover widespread censorship.

Am I the only one that finds this hypocritical? So, a handful of individual companies controlling what most of the people in the U.S. will see online is no problem. These companies being funded by a small group of SV investors and not serving the interest of its users (since users don't pay for Google, Facebook or Twitter) is OK. These companies having a very strong incentive to help a certain political party, due to its lenience in antitrust and bailout matters is OK. These companies filtering ideas and conversations that could reduce the popularity of that party, where the country is already very divided, is also OK.

But India blocking a site relevant to a small fraction of its population is major threat to the Democracy.

Well, maybe that's because had the authors published any other outcome, they would never find another job in Academia anymore, due to pressure from numerous activists. But the problem is Poland, of course.
