Nice thanks, wasn't aware of that.

To me while it's nice, it's not an impossible achievement and often likely uses somebody else's code to get there :)

I think apple receive far too much praise for things they've done which are often not as amazing as they seem and too little praise for other things (e.g. their great work on the 5nm SoC hw) as well as far too little criticism for biz practices.

Trying to set things a little more on an even keel :)
> once your "club" gains too much traction you are still going to be deplatformed by domain registers, DDoS protection services, payment processors etc.

I follow the topic carefully and I've never seen domains being taken down just because people were simply discussing conservative politics.

There is a very large list of binaries that can potentially be downloaded, each of which can have hundreds or thousands of versions, while the number of known virus fingerprints is relatively small.
Thanks a lot for the pointer! I was initially distracted by listing C#, JS and Python as examples, but the article clearly states:

"Many programming languages do not strictly support the UAP but do support forms of it. Properties, which are provided in a number of programming languages, address the problem Meyer was addressing with his UAP in a different way. Instead of providing a single uniform notation, properties provide a way to invoke a method of an object while using the same notation as is used for attribute access. The separate method invocation syntax is still available."

Decaf kind of necessarily tastes bad - the decaffeination process removes a bunch of the aromatic compounds that provide the pleasant flavor.

After an acclimation period, herbal tea can be a satisfying substitute.
Yes, but this isn’t an option that is readily available to everyone.
It may be worth noting that we do not really know what do they mean by "logs". These can be either database records or simply text logs generated by a web server sitting in front of the OCSP backend and logging the requests, regardless of what those requests are referring to. In other words, it does not have to be a conscious decision to "harvest IP addresses" but could easily be a side-effect of what the infrastructure does.

Still, it is no excuse for them as one would expect clear and thorough security/privacy audits before rolling out such features. Especially from companies like Apple.

On Linux you can also have network namespaces. It wouldn't surprise me if Mac OS had a similar capability and their apps ran on a different network namespace than the one configurable by the user.
Yes, you can. However with average user, config router with VPN, proxy is a bit complicated. Bypass firewalls and VPNs on macOS is still terrible by the way.

FWIW Chris Randall from Audio Damage posted a quick note saying performance of plugins under Rosetta was basically comparible with Intel: https://www.audiodamage.com/blogs/news/a-quick-note-about-ap...

Look, (I am assuming here) neither you nor I know how a new strain of a flu is detected. Plenty of people get ill without ever going to the doctors and brush it off as a normal flu, and even if they did, the doctor may just brush it off as a normal flu. The term "you don't know what you don't know" really holds true here, so being the first to detect an illness or publish it does not mean that it where it was originated. I mean the 2009 H1N1 flu was first detected in the US, but originated in Mexico, the 1918 swine flu originated from a US army base, but was first published by the Spanish, hence it has been wrongly labelled as the Spanish flu.

I also have no idea why people have this notion to reject that COVID-19 may not have originated from China, especially the fact that most of the spread of COVID-19 came from Europe, so much so that Gov. Cuomo actually called it the Europe virus. https://www.scmp.com/news/world/united-states-canada/article...
Ask HN: Why does a quantum computer look like that?
There are a lot of tiny pipes connected with each other through disks made of gold. And why gold by the way? And what are the roles for the "pipes"? Why are some with rings? Is there any clear description for newbies, why a quantum computer look like that?
That has also been exactly my experience. Beating level 3 is just about capitalizing on the obvious blunders it makes. It feels completely unrewarding.

Playing against humans, even significantly stronger ones, is so much more fun and rewarding. It's just way more exciting when both sides can capitalize on smaller mistakes, so the game becomes about building and maintaining an advantage. Or setting up a tactic that feels great to pull off.

The computers will usually not yield any incremental advances at all (and they won't fall for tactics) until they make a dumb move that invalidates all the advantage they built up. Whether you win or lose depends mainly on how often the latter happens, and learning how to make that happen is both opaque/unfun and useless for playing against humans.
Unfortunately that's basically the case everywhere in the U.S. outside of NYC, SF, and DC.
Are you thinking of Foxconn? I don't think anything you said makes sense for TSMC.
If this Apple firewall nonsense sticks I can see a market emerge for self-contained USB ethernet/wifi dongles that incorporate a built-in router/firewall with VPN functionality. You could build something like this yourself using an rPI or something similar, but my feeling is there could be a sizable market for a small & cheap off-the-shelf device you just plug in.
You missed this:

Where are my notes saved?

Your notes will be stored in the local browser storage using IndexedDB.

Now, if you use the sync feature, the "privacy first" goes right out the window, as stated in the next statement right after the above one:

"Currently, we only support syncing through Github, more options (Self-host git, WebDAV, Google Drive, etc.) will be added soon."
Figuring out how the inflation rate is even calculated involves reading through a ~100 page manual. And while the formula are pretty simple, the consequences are actually pretty confusing (eg, if the basket is re-weighted to what people are buying, how feasible is it for inflation to increase faster than wages even if price levels on most goods increase faster than inflation? Are those items naturally removed from the index?). On the other hand, the M2 monetary aggregate is actually simple - and can be used to find a rough estimate of what % of "the money" an asset entitles somebody to.

If you bought a block of gold in, say, 1990, and use the BLS inflation rate it claims you've made substantial real returns over the last 30 years which seems extremely fishy for owning a pet rock. If you calculate what % of the M2 money supply it entitles you to on the other hand its value is about the same. Slightly less, if my figures are right. Seems much more reasonable, the economy should be gaining value faster than a block of metal.

Basically the sort of people who say complain about central banks and inflation are usually the sort of people who can't understand why everyone is so excited about the inflation rate. The issue is availability of assets which are what is needed to retire or live with a sense of financial security (it is 2020, productivity is off the charts - by the numbers people shouldn't need to work full time to live comfortably). M2 deflator instead of inflation also explains circumstantial stuff like why there was a large unhappy population who voted in Trump, or why the population seems to be a bit tense about money despite apparent real growth.
> The sugar amount in fruit has a direct impact on the overall calories you consume but since fruit are also high in fibre, the contained sugar is not comparable to, say, a chocolate bar.

I think a more precise way to say this is:

Due to the water and fiber in fruit, they tend to be more satiating than eating something like a chocolate bar on a calorie normalized basis.
I'm glad that people are putting pressure on Apple to fix this and hope that they do.

That being said, I think many comments here are out of touch. We're talking about a specialized security feature which is not easily available on other platforms is only used by a minority of users and still works for most programs.

What exactly are your threat models that this is causing a problem for you? Are you sure that you can even use a mainstream OS if you need to block all outbound connections? If I had to have complete control over my outbound connections, I would use a hardware/software solution sitting between the computer and router.

Secondly, is this really bypassing VPNs or only the new firewall API? e.g. is it bypassing WireGuard?

Obviously this would be a malicious use of DMCA (as it has been with other cases of open source software), but they could:

* Tie them up in long and expensive legal battles, using the system itself to punish them

* Have their repositories DMCA'd

* Contact their service providers and have them revoke their services

I am just suggesting caution.
Whatsapp is the worst chat system I use. It doesn't support reactions (which are essential if you don't want a chat with many people to devolve into incessant pointless notifications), nor does it allow easy editting of the message you just sent (another essential feature, given how often small mistakes can totally change the meaning of text). I can't collapse pictures/gifs that annoy me, I can't chat with people on other services. It won't let me use whatsapp web on multiple other devices simultaneously, it won't let me use whatsapp web when my phone is out of battery (the exact time I most need it!). I can't invite people to chat with me on whatsapp without them having to create an account and give up their phone number (and usually their contact address book too).

It's very strange to me to hear people describe Whatsapp as having good UX.
Some years ago, I saw a presentation on Neo4J by a developer for a major British supermarket. (I think it was Sainsbury's.)

They wanted to print an appropriate coupon after someone paid for their shopping. "£1 off hamburgers next week" or similar, to get the person to return to the shop the following week.

They said a very important feature was to avoid giving a discount for a product someone has just bought or a closely related product. This would annoy customers who felt they'd missed out. Therefore, they were updating Neo4J with the just-made purchases and calculating the recommendation in the time it took to process the payment.

Maybe Amazon's chaotic mess of similar products makes this much more difficult than for a large supermarket, or maybe Amazon doesn't think the annoyance is a big deal.
I think the idea is that false positives (cert revoked) result in a call home to Apple for an actual check.

The other idea is that because Apple knows all existing certificates, they could conceivably construct filters that have no false positives for those existing certificates... sort of like construction of a perfect hash.

Thanks for your answer - in a nutshell big companies do consider it, but decide to wait for chip manufacturers to update their hardware and do the upgrade. How fast is this feedback loop matters here.
So your retort to "Apple doesn't believe that you should own your computer" is essentially "if you just don't connect it to the Internet, they can't control you"?

Thanks, that is interesting. I used to be 2000+ rated for AOE1 on zone.com and 1400+ chess on Yahoo! games back in late 90s, and to me it is a point of contention that I often bring up because chess is not motivated by capital greed whereas microsoft and their game studios are. And the dissimilarity between two games is pretty obvious to anyone who plays above 700 ranks.

As someone who's been working four-hour weeks for years, I cannot understate the change in life satisfaction. The workweek becomes much more pleasant and ends before you know it, and the weekend feels like it lasts forever. If you can afford it, I absolutely recommend at least trying it out.
I would rather suggest not succumbing to self-censorship & chilling effects.

Though I find myself wondering whether a screenshot of a .mkv of a copyrighted film is really tactful for a Serious Project aimed at mainstream audience. Chilling effects again. Maybe the user just ripped his own DVD/BR for personal convenience.
I have a name on Twitter that someone has and tries to claim it. The name on Twitter is my first name, and the person already got the .com domain without my intend to loose it. I am having mixed feelings about this.

Replace Apple with any other company in the title and all hell would break loose, but since it is about HN's personal toy, you are not allowed to criticize them..

Just look at the heavy brigading happening here or any other Apple related thread. As soon as there is one negative article two positive must pop out to calm the Apple fanboys.

And no, saying "if you don't like the platform then don't use it" is not a valid argument. Thank God that it is not up to us on HN to decide what Apple can do, but to the court of law, at least I am putting my trust in the EU..
I can't really disagree with you because, well, this is just a rant disguised as opinion.

But, don't worry, your HN rep is safe because these types of rants appear in ALL the Apple threads, there are many that feel the same.
Fellow citizen of another SEA nation here, also looking forward to this trade agreement.

It seems to me that over the last four years the Trump administration's increased isolationist attitude further incentivized a free trade agreement between ASEAN nations and their partners.

As the article says this should be viewed more as an economic unification of ASEAN and FTA partners, rather than China completely dominating Asia altogether.
^ This. Exactly my experience with it. Though, recently I'm using Java when I work with others on cloud-related projects and Scala (which is a ML+typeclasses+concurrency on the JVM) to write a compiler for OpenCL. For me, OCaml is great if you want compilation speed, fast iterations. Lacks in other departments: concurrency, parallelism, ergonomics, availability of libraries (outside compiler territory). Also, there's Flix that can have a lot of potential in the future, which is on JVM also: https://flix.dev/

If anything, top level chess players are likely to have missed some non-chess education when they were young due to being a chess prodigy, which would contribute to a lower IQ in adulthood.
I agree with what you're saying but it seems like you might have replied to the wrong comment.

The parent comment is making the same point as you about IQ: "I don't think the average IQ 100 individual could ever reach an ELO of 2000 regardless of how much they practice, and half the population has IQs of less than 100."

It's natural though. I could probably say romanization is a casual, reasonable effort method to convey a word so that the both sides can agree on the word in the source language with reasonable accuracy.

Uncommon/novel/excessive romanizations like "katsukaree" or "hakkar nywusu" can be technically correct or more precise, but if they can't be traced to the word or concept at less effort for an average audience than "cutlet curry" or "hacker news", they actually serve the purpose less.

For real world uses, Google Search[1] in Japanese for "cutlet curry" gives me an info panel for cutlet, a dictionary page as top result, as well as multiple Japanese videos about cutlet curry(why would anyone take and upload that kinds of videos is a mystery to me). In contrast, for "katsukaree", it gives me "maybe you meant..." mini panel, and the top three results are an Instagram tag page, English Wikimedia Commons link, and Tripadvisor page for a restaurant in Columbia. I checked the tag results page but none of top or newest posts seemed to be someone from the country. I think it's safe to say "katsukaree" is quite an unpopular expression to native Japanese speakers.

Have you tried Cranberry juice/extract? I've often heard that it can help the body break down the Uric acid.
A close friend of mine suffered from gout since 2012 and it got aggravated since last two years. He also was severely obese with a BMI around 37. Last year his SGPT and SGOT levels really spiked up drastically and doctor suggested it was the beginning of Fibrosis and asked him to reduce weight.

He started intermittent fasting 18:6 and religious intake of ~3 litres (250 ml per kg). He reduced 20 kgs in last 8 months.

He is totally off allopurinol and the gout seems to have vanished. His uric acid levels and the SGPT SGOT levels are back normal.
