Linux kernel TLS, at least at the moment, only does the symmetric encryption part in the kernel, and the TLS handshake, certificate validation, has to be provided by user space. This is different from z/OS AT-TLS in which the OS does the TLS handshake, certificate validation, etc as well.

(Strictly speaking, I'm not sure if AT-TLS actually is implemented in the OS kernel – or "nucleus" to use the z/OS terminology – it may actually be implemented somewhere else, say in the C library. I know some of it is actually implemented by a daemon called PAGENT. But, from the application programmers viewpoint, it is provided by the OS, however exactly the OS provides it.)
It might be neat to introduce relational algebra with awk. At least when I was a teenager this would have made it obvious why people like RDBMSs even though awk is definitely better in some situations.
As I said, it can afford indies some legitimacy.

I'm not arguing that either is good, but I think there is a fundamental difference. Apple is reacting to the threat of regulation, which is at least theoretically aimed at protecting small business owners. Valve is fundamentally competing for the business of large companies that actually can afford to forego the exposure Steam offers.

I'm not sure that the App Store's position is as stable as Steam's, either. I don't really have a clear sense of what impact it would have on their sales if Humble Bundle could sell iOS games.
Yeah, it makes zero sense that Disney could buy something that wasn't for sale in the first place (the rights to the books without any contractual obligations attached, which Lucasfilm did not own and therefore could not sell.)

Didn't they initially announce effectiveness as people infected in the trial arm over people infected in the control arm? Changing the metric to the better one feels a bit marketingy.
Agreed, anything less that that is not just dangerous but also really inefficient & unecological, as devices abandoned by manufacturers can't be often easily repurposed for other uses due to locked bootloaders.

You've got a point there. The capitalist will most likely continue to act as a capitalist. The incentives are fundamentally wrong, so moralizing on an individual level won't do much, which brings us back to: blame capitalism.
Interesting side note:

Apple has completely wiped their battery-gate "apology"[0] letter from their website. It simply doesn't exist any more. If you visit that URL, you're immediately redirected (301) to a general battery information page which (surprise!) has no mention of the surrounding controversy.

Make of that what you will.

[0] It was only an apology in the "we're sorry you got upset" sense but it was something. Here's the URL: https://www.apple.com/iphone-battery-and-performance/ Here's the content that used to be at that page: https://web.archive.org/web/20171229003922/https://www.apple...

Seriously though - When amazon is showing me all these recommendations, they are charging someone to show these to me. That means I am not the customer of those recommendations. They make money when I browse and I wonder if they make more money doing that than when I actually purchase. Meanwhile to the people selling - they pay to advertise with amazon, and they pay (via a %) to sell as well.
> The layperson doesn't have to understand the intricacies of email protocols, it's enough that they consider email to be non-repudiable.

They consider it non-repudiable not because of DKIM, it's just a common misconception. People believed that before DKIM. They will still believe it if Google discloses its DKIM keys.

They totally should not believe it, though.

> So if I can't give the exact number of times that DKIM has helped in dispute resolution, then my argument "has zero basis in reality"?

Of course that's not what I meant, I don't care about exact numbers. Just give me some evidence that DKIM is relevant to solve disputes anywhere else other than in the minds of HN commenters. Otherwise your claim that the world is better off now with non-repudiable email has no basis in reality.

> they are choosing non-repudiation over privacy

They totally are not. They have no idea what are the properties of email. As an example, a non-tech friend of mine was once surprised that email does not provide any confidentiality.
Even if you think customers shouldn't be given a choice, there is still no excuse for not informing the users of the situation.

The XBox has been allowing sideloading for a while now (XBox One and now Series X) and it hasn't caused any problems. XBox Live Indie Games for 360 was also not an issue. Sony had sideloading for homebrew on PlayStation at various points in time too.

I think making it a required policy (with allowed constraints) would not be harmful to consoles at all.

Requiring third party stores is more difficult, but honestly I don't think most people would need them if you can just sideload.
If this case is as slam-dunk as it appears, why doesn't Alan find a lawyer to sue Disney on contingent?
In "The Corporation: the Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power" Joel Bakan asks "if a corporation is a legal person, what kind of person is it?". His answer is: a psychopath. A person without any moral sense who will pursue their goals single mindedly and with no scruples whatsoever. How in the world did we hand over complete power over our economic affairs to such monsters? There is no such thing as a corporation that's not evil... like the scorpion in the fable of the fox and the scorpion, "don't be evil" is contrary to their nature.
Does increased longevity positively affect the success of a population? Evolution is about the population, and pretty much disregards the individual unless that "beneficial" individual makes sweeping positive changes in the next generation. I don't think 80 year olds are reproducing all that often these days, so at least my understanding of how evolution works doesn't apply to this. Aging out of individuals is a way of keeping that balance.

More technically:

In evolutionary computation, there is a specific area focused on scaling. The quick gist is that the warmer and larger an organism is, the more energy is required to keep its population alive. Populations of different organisms tend to use the same amount of energy. This is why you have dense populations of bacteria and ants, but not of elephants and hippos. When that goes awry, parts of one or the other population dies off to keep that balance.

So the more predators there are, the more prey is needed to support the predator population. The models present that the sum of all biological activities in any given population scales with the individual's mass by a power of 3/4. This rule shows up everywhere in nature, except for one.

Humans are the only life form known that violates this principle, and our population is already hyper-dense by a factor of 58,000 times over all other life forms. Domestication of plants and animals (farming) and industrial advances have propelled us beyond that limit.

Living so far beyond reproduction and family-building age is an exercise in the law of diminishing returns.
That all might be all true. But people willingly sign up to it.

You're talking about 'transparency' but as the article points out, Apple flat-out denied the issue existed.

Apple had a call to make: Inform the users of the battery issue, or deny the issue and reap extra sales from iPhone replacements. That's not an 'engineering trade-off' but a ripoff.
Reading between the lines, it looks like these people are employees of contracting agencies to which the content moderation has been outsourced.

If I had to guess, I suspect that the motivation to bring people back to the office comes from content security issues. Not all content flagged for moderators is actually objectionable due to errant or malicious flagging. It's impossible to guarantee that private material will stay secure when it leaves the premises.

I'm on the side of the content moderators here (should be allowed to work from home) but it's not difficult to imagine the headlines criticizing Facebook for allowing private content to be viewed, and potentially shared, by content unsupervised content moderators working at home.
Apple wouldn't be paying anything remotely like that rate - if they are, everybody involved in negotiating it needs to be fired. You're off by several orders of magnitude, therefore your conclusions based on the wrongly assumed cost structure are baseless.

Praising Apple for doing the right thing for small developers is not "Short Term thinking".

I'm sorry, but whenever I'm looking for a new app to do something, it's consistently either the "hobbyist-made, free because ideology" apps, or the "made by $bigcorp, costs $5 but no ads" apps that actually are useful and good.

That, and the seemingly utter stupidity of ad engines. Like, yes I bought that new power tool last week. Stop showing me the ad for the tool from the same store I already bought it from.

I'm pretty much convinced that apart from the people working in the ad business, nobody actually profits off ads. Certainly it's close to impossible to prove that ads are effective, and people who sell ads to companies are good at cherry picking and suggestive correlations. Then in the end everyone tries to buy the same eyeballs by paying the same ad companies, and it all averages out to nothing except you spent a bunch of money.

Many HN readers earn a living from programming skills they developed by exploring computers aimlessly as kids in the 1990s and 2000s. I’m a Duolingo addict who has used the app daily for more than three years, so I do think it’s a fun way to build basic language skills. But no matter how much time I spend in the app, I won’t learn how it works or get the ability to change, modify or develop it. The learning experience is stage-managed by a company and funded by ads displayed between the lessons. It is very different to my experience of learning to write HTML and PHP when I was in high school.

> I don't know why this isn't a criminal copyright violation that the FBI should investigate.

The existence of the contract is uncontested (though its effect clearly is contested), so its clearly a breach of contract case. I think it is pretty well established that at least for civil litigation between the parties, the existence of a contract license covering the work generally requires the aggrieved party to proceed under contract law, not bare copyright law. It is at least reasonably consistent that the same should bar criminal copyright action, as well.

Yet it also goes on to say this:

> “When the United States repealed net neutrality, they created an environment in which it would be easy, from a technical standpoint, for ISPs to interfere with or block internet traffic,” she said. “The architecture for greater censorship is already in place and we should all be concerned about heading down a slippery slope.”

What this alludes to is that somehow 2010 Open Internet Order 1. equals the concept of "Net Neutrality" as a whole and 2. was the backbone of internet freedom in the United States and both are untrue. In fact, none of the fear astroturfing that took place during that campaign ever came true. I'm interested in knowing who started that campaign and why.

I'm always in favor of iterating on broad ideas like Net Neutrality but it is constantly being used to misrepresent the state of freedom on the internet.

Tensor algebras are the most general algebras you can get (categorically inclined people would call them a “free object” in a suitable category), but because of this they are almost never useful on their own. We pretty much always study specialisations of tensor algebras, of which GA (or more generally Clifford algebras) are an example.

There are no interesting formulas in a tensor algebra, because the whole idea of it being “most general” (every other algebra is a quotient) is that it has no relations. It is only when passing to more specific algebras (symmetric, exterior, GA, ...) that the subject really becomes interesting.

I pay more for iPhones partially because the ecosystem is not yet fully crapped up with C++ programs with bad UIs, and I think Apple would argue this point too. You’re fully allowed to draw your UI with Metal though, and MoltenVK supports iOS. Many iOS games use almost no platform UI components.

While I have every reason to believe that Disney DOES owe royalties in this case, and IS remiss in paying them, I think it might be worth pointing out that the characterization of Disney's position as "they have purchased the rights but not the obligations of the contract" is the SFWA's, and presumably not literally the position that Disney espoused (because to do so would indeed, as you note, be a clear cut criminal copyright infringement case).

> why doesn't Alan find a lawyer to sue Disney on contingent?

A lawsuit will take years, and Foster provides quite a good reason to suggest that delayed recovery has substantially discounted value, so while that would be a possible route to recovery (probably for his estate by the time it was resolved), a quick resolution now, even if involving less money than a successful suit would recover, would probably be strongly preferred.

That said, I would think that filing suit would be the way to kick that process off, as that would reduce the perception that "ignore him and the issue will go away" might work.
