I think what the poster means is that the workers had so little trust in the legal system that they did not bother pursing this is court. Instead, they tried to create a media narrative to get Apple to pay attention.

It’s pointless. The only thing that can fix this problem is governments. They have the power to crack down on these manufacturing companies and actually put a stop to it.

Tweeting about it won’t do a thing. Buying an alternative brand phone won’t do a thing either because they all come from the same places. This wasn’t an Apple factory, it was just a generic electronics factory that probably produces a large chunk of the stuff you have regardless of brand.
Yep you are absolutely right. Abortion and guns is a non-issue in most of Western Europe. And Australia.
Mobile phones have devoured the camera market. It’s 1/100th of the size it was a decade ago. On the professional DSLR front, they’re having their lunch regularly eaten by Sony, Canon and Fujifilm.
You need an additional API to create views/sublists if you want to transparently operate on sub ranges and if you want to return a found index you may need to convert its value to apply to a parent view.
Consider that on ~40 billion revenue, Costco makes ~1 billion profit. Compare that to Apple making ~60 billion income and ~11 billion profit. Apple brings in only 1.5X more money than costco but makes 11X more profit. Sure Costco makes a lot of money, but Apple makes way more money by employing these sorts of practices. There’s rich, and then there’s apple rich.
Accepting a solution that requires the entirety of known physics to be scrapped isn't really a solution. Einstein has a very good track record of not being wrong.

Just because something appears to defy the laws of physics, doesn't mean it does, and informed opinion is still just opinion. When someone can independently validate Pais' work by constructing an alternative model of physics that allows for gravity control and withstands experimental and predictive scrutiny, and maybe also build one of these UFOs and demonstrate in a repeatable manner that the claims being made are possible, then it's plausible.

Until then, everything we have is speculation. The most likely interpretation is still that this phenomenon can be entirely explained by conventional physics, and possibly cutting-edge classified technology, and that the "UFO patents" are unrelated to what's actually going on here.
I guess I am looking at it from a different angle, in which case, and following your reasoning, you are indeed correct and I misconstrued OCs intention/message.
Phone cameras would seem to jump out as the logical reason to me. Yes, everyone knows that DSLRs are way better than phone cameras and give way more control, but... the best camera is the one that’s with you.
Perhaps those who misunderstand you also lack the cognitive empathy towards you!?

Almost everybody here focuses on Apple instead on the Wistron. Having said that I am more inclined that the fault lies on the local managements and myriad of subcontracting companies or even third-party payroll and HR systems.
I read it as implying that the workers have no faith in public institutions to give them justice.
If I knew anything about tabletop gaming maybe I'd consider it. The problem is that I'm aiming for you to actually twiddle the knobs on the radio yourself, for example.
>In my mind, what makes Switzerland not the ideal "secure software" country is the scandals with the phony frontends for crypto companies that are CIA owned, but Swiss branded.

Yes that! Swiss products are expensive, the only "pro" points where trust, quality and integrity. But with those two scandals those point are a thing of the past. Better don't brand your security related software-product as Swiss.

BTW: Not just CIA but BND (the german one) too.
It's quite a low wage, but not 5 rupees an hour: 8000 / 160 = 50. 50 rupees an hour is probably a decent wage in a small town / city in India, but would be a tough wage to live on in Bangalore.
There is a book titled Shadow Divers (I would recommend) that goes into this a bit. The book tells the story of wreck divers who find a U-boat not far from New Jersey.

The story echos your friend's concern. Wreck divers will remove anything they can from these sunken vessels; placards, insignia, gauges, etc. They will also damage the vessel in order to make room to continue exploring.

The German government was also not happy with the book's protagonists because they deem sunken vessels as graves and believe they should remain undisturbed.
GP may also have meant that a functional legal system could provide a better remedy to the workers by enforcing compensation. And perhaps the destruction could have been avoided.
Too complicated. Those quicklisp and slime is not easy for starter (but sort of essential as lots of functions can be obtained via this distribution manager).

The approach he tried is using as simple as one can. I guess the only thing missing is if you were mac and windows user ...
It was a requirement for my Software Engineering degree (my university was in the US). When discussing with my coworkers in the past, I don't think many of them were required to take any ethics courses, unfortunately.

Ethics in software is something we should all probably talk about a little more often.

I don't understand why RH don't just allow downloading RH for free like they used to. They tried to funnel non-enterprise types into Fedora - it obviously doesn't work for everyone. There always be an Amazon Linux, Oracle Linux, Scientific or CENTOS, which are not improving RHELs brand.

Yes, this is definitely an option and it really should have been mentioned but given that even https://common-lisp.net/downloads recommends that one use portacle to get going quickly for newbs, it seem prudent not go too far off-track :).
On cue China made a remark after the protest in India that these protests like these would not occur in Chinese factories...
That is around 70c USD per hour!

Well, policy in large organizations and especially public policy on the scale of nations is a lot like orbital mechanics. You can head off in a particular direction, but you're going to end up somewhere completely different from where a lot of people might intuitively expect.

Since you're looking only at national scale for now:
A good measure for people being rewarded based on merit is social mobility. Which countries do you expect to have better social mobility? Countries that have a strong social-democratic element, or countries that are purely capitalist?

If you ever decide to try to implement strict Meritocracy at a smaller scale when actually locally organizing your own local organizations, please let me know; I'll bring popcorn. ;)
Canon is frequently used in film for smaller productions. Nikon isn't used at all in that market.
> This suggests that the legal system ideally ought to exist for the benefit of capital owners who commit fraud, so they don't suffer material loss. Is that what you mean?

No, that is an uncharitable interpretation.

The first two are new to me, so thank you, I'll read up. The third succinctly explains a quirk I've never bothered to check the legitimacy of, so thank you again.

With your changes, that brings us way below the character limit, sitting at 208 characters with the <body> and <script> tags the challenge dictates.

I had to rejig things to use parent.append(child) as it doesn't return the element, but using the child.remove() method directly means there's no parameter and therefore one less character there, so it all balances out. I also had to rename the event variable as it caused a scoping conflict for the variable `a`.

With all that space left over you could certainly add in the clear all and strike-through behaviour properly. Maybe even some real state!

That sounds interesting. A cool project would be to inspect gyroscope data when the iOS keyboard is in use. Maybe it would be possible to create a keylogger based on it.

I guess it would depend on how good the data is and which keyboard is being used.

I know that this is possible on Android.
If you are sufficiently hurt you can be angry about what someone says to you even if you nominally understand they didn't mean to.
I mean, it's on wikipedia: "Prior to becoming known under its current name, CentOS originated as a build of CAOS Linux, which was started by Gregory Kurtzer." There are a bunch of items on Distrowatch about caos, going all the way back to 2004, like https://distrowatch.com/?newsid=02134 that qualifies him as "the leader of cAos Foundation of cAos and CentOS fame".

It seems clear from a quick googling that Greg started the project; once Rocky McGough entered the picture, Greg handed him the technical reins while he "continued to manage the project, community, and governance side of things", until he moved on.

(Side note: Distrowatch is one of the unsung pillars of the Linux ecosystem. For all its drawbacks, it has run for almost 20 years, and still works fine as a quick way to survey the field of Linux distributions.)
Canon and Nikon are the top players.
Oof, that's not a good sign. For me, Japan is the place for the best camera and lens manufacturing. Most of the makers seem to split their manufacturing between Japan for their quality models/lenses and cheaper countries for the consumer stuff, which I think is a valid compromise. But this feels short-sighted on Nikon's part and rather like they have already failed. Perhaps instead of relocating their production they should re-evaluate their business model; my dad ended up swapping to Fuji after ~40 years of Nikon after his last camera failed and they treated him like crap as he tried to get it repaired. In contrast I bought an 11 year-old second-hand Canon DSLR which needed a new shutter mechanism and Canon Japan found an out-of-production replacement in their warehouse and shipped it to my repairer immediately.

I've always found Nikon to be lacking in competitive models with Canon in the places that count. Canon frequently make lenses of the same focal length but for different budgets, e.g. they have 4 70-200mm models. Nikon's range has always been weirdly spotty, with some excellent lenses at the high end but weird gaps elsewhere.

Tangentially, I recently bought a superb Sigma lens and was happy to see that it was actually still made in Japan as well; I thought all the third-party lens makers had moved abroad, but surprisingly a number of them are still there.

I was also very happy to discover that Canon promotes wildlife reserves around its factories and headquarters. It's nice to see a company that reflects some of its customers' interests: https://global.canon/en/environment/bird-branch/index.html

Why not just create Red Hat Live or something less confusing and disruptive to existing users? Perhaps upsetting people and making the news is part of the goal.
Really cool! I tested the three faces and it works really well!
Canon is pretty much even with them, on the DSLR front.

Canon kind of "owns" the DSLR video camera market, but gets regularly beaten in still images for pros.

What Canon has, is diversification. It's a much bigger company, with many different markets.
Its only for forensics because schools cannot afford the version that breaks into the phone for you, its expensive and not something that a school can get access to.
The only startups that will offer this will probably be bootstrap companies. Otherwise, VC backed companies will always push for stock options because it’s a better deal for them. I hope more startups starts offering revenue sharing.
If these workers don't have other choice but to take that miserable paycheck or starve, there's not much difference with being enslaved.

Edit: downvoting without discussion in this context means to me that you're hurt by my statements but have no rebuttal. It feels like you're acknowledging what I'm saying as true but you're not happy about it.
OK, but let's paint a picture and see where it goes:

QC's become several orders of magnitude better at a few very specific calculations.

We work out to frame some set of algorithms that are currently slow on conventional computers so that they're fast on QC's.

Some genius works out how to frame some currently-obscure method of (for example) AI research into the new subset of QC-friendly algorithms.

Some other geniuses work out how to train this new breed of fast AIs how to interact with users in a meaningful way.

The next mobile revolution happens, everyone carries an AI in their pocket, the Culture looms nearer :)

My point being that if we make the hardware faster, we'll find an application for it. No-one could have predicted that the humble graphics card (solely intended to make the specific vector calculations of 3d gaming faster) would power a financial speculation industry worth trillions of dollars. Make it fast and some genius will work out how to make it useful.
So in the same era as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study? I couldn't really care less what the judge concluded, I hope we've since established that medical ethics weren't what they should be.

The better of the quotes you've dropped in this discussion is

> the patients contacted prior to the court injunction all expressed a willingness to cooperate and to be interviewed

That is to say, the participants' expressed their consent to follow-up action. I'd still prefer not transferring personal information to another group of researchers, though - the same thing could have been achieved with some kind of advertisement in the media ("participated in a Sobell study? Call this number").
> My complain is about media coverage and how click baity engagement metrics propelled 3D printing into this glorified do-all-world-changing-technology.

I do think this is a surprise, injection moulding is a technique as old as dirt (well really plastic). You wanna see crazy coverage for injection moulding go back to the 1910s when the technique was starting to take off.

At the end of the day there just aren’t any big innovations in injection moulding to talk about, it all minor process improvements, may of which are happening behind closed doors, hidden as company secret sauce.

3D printing on the other hand. Is such an comparatively underdeveloped and under-utilised technique that just sneezing next to a 3D printer is a form of news worth innovation.
Still, Apalache is essentially a bounded model checker (with support for inductive invariants), so it would be nice if someone managed to use Z3 to verify more complex properties.
At least for the Japanese market, not ‘made in Japan’ is a big downgrade in perception.
Rev share is a tricky incentive. It can incentivize people to waste money chasing revenue. Revenue isn’t always in line with the success of the business.

As a business owner and VC I’d be extremely reluctant to offer that to employees.

I've only heard of this with consulting. Multiple times I have heard traditional shops offer a 1-5?% of e-commerce revenue depending on the portion of work, but it is often since they are skeptical of their own success.
It’s the 12 that doesn’t. The logic being that everyone already has a draw full of chargers and cables so it makes sense to remove the brick from the packaging which slims it down and reduces waste.

Author here. That sentence will be deleted when the website regenerates, cause it doesn't seem to have the effect that I was aiming for. Thanks for pointing it out.

That said, I was impressed by the man's repair qualities. I asked him how he was going to repair my 2006 laptop without access to spare parts. He said he would just repair the fan by replacing the copper wire. Don't see that happening in an official repair shop. And he did it overnight.
I think the problem is more related to the skilleset of the blog owner, which may not necessarily be in devops but instead economics or journalism or other (tough to say without being able to acess the content).

It's a feature not a bug that we all have different skills. I certainly do not want to discourage others from sharing their opinions due to technical issues that could be resolved more easily by developers (through their implementation and documentation) as much if not more than end users in a given situation.
I wonder if they will do the "Apple" thing: "Designed in California."
Beyond the cooling jackets there isn’t really going to be anything hard to mill. If the geometry is hard to mill, then it’s almost certainly inappropriate for injection moulding (assuming you actually want to extract your injection moulded object from the mould).
Israeli courts have repeatedly ruled in a way that violates international law, including on illegal Israeli settlements.

Does it really matter if they're independent if they disregard the law in exactly the same way the Israeli government does?
Pre-IPO the venture is likely not profitable, so you'd be getting a share of zero. Companies that are VC-backed are going to be held to an expectation of a big payoff, and will be in general discouraged from offering incentives that uncouple employee incentives from an exit. If I understand this right, it's part of why founders have started to be allowed to sell some of their vested shares at funding events, it gives them some more financial runway as the company's timeline stretches out (you don't want the optics of the CEO of your $50m series C to be eating peanut butter and ramen, etc.)

I do think profit sharing would be a good lever for a bootstrapped company that is already profitable and wants to give key employees skin in the game.

Where the damage in question consists of dumping freshwater into the sea? It would take more water than exists in the world to do irrecoverable damage that way. Try to avoid learning about rivers.

Judging by the headline, it seemed like this is something that might be interesting to me.

I went into the demo, but I was under the impression that I landed at Intercom's help site. Nothing guided me through the demo.

I then went to the main site, the claim spiked my interest (Run you business on Airtable), but there wasn't enough details provided to build my confidence. The fact that I am required to login upon clicking any of the use cases also prevents me from understanding this quickly.
I think it's their genes that have taken the risk, of being more of an outlier.
Miami is sinking into the ocean, and I say this as someone who lives in a part of Florida that is sinking into the ocean at a much slower rate. On the other hand, isn’t California sliding into the ocean?
It’s kind of hard to know what is going on from an outsiders perspective. Maybe Apple could have or should have known about this before, maybe they did already know, maybe they did everything they realistically could and were deceived.

One thing is certain, this problem isn’t specific to Apple. The whole electronics manufacturing industry is rotten and the only ones capable of fixing it are the governments of these counties. Wistron should be crushed for this wage theft and serve as a warning for other companies.
Maybe you should just be thankful for the benefits you have. Most of the world is not lucky enough to be capable of working in tech in the Bay area.

I think the point in comparison to slavery is that:

> Across history you will find slaves that were treated well, accumulated wealth, were educated and held in high regard - yet they still legally were the property of another person

They were still - off paper - treated better than employees indirectly working for apple now. Bad taste? Sure, history wasn't pretty. It's absolutely crazy that slaves were paid more money than these employees, though. That is the point here.
Japanese-style microvans: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microvan

Here in Germany cars are getting bigger and bigger, almost 50 % of newly registered cars are SUVs that weigh more than 2 tons. They clog up cities like Berlin and take more and more space. They're also completely useless as no one actually needs a 4x4 or extra-elevated car, it's pure marketing and ego stroking.

Japanese cities and places like Okinawa use public space so much more efficiently, you see tiny cars and Microvans everywhere. For urban settings they're really the perfect choice of vehicle IMHO, so it's quite sad you can't buy them here.
It's a spectrum and you already know you're somewhere on that spectrum or nearby. IMHO, you have all the information a professional could reasonably supply.

I tell my own ASD child, it's such a broad spectrum of otherwise loosely-associated characteristics that whatever diagnostic standards are deployed by professionals almost certainly will be reassessed as erroneous in my child's lifetime, which means all authoritative guidance you can receive now on the subject is 'wrong'. ASD is a bucket of 'different'. Those doing the judging can't even be consistent in expressing how ASDers are 'different'. That is all.
