It means that Windows/Microsoft doesn't provide anything to driver writers or DAW authors.

MS tried a bunch of tech in the past (WinMM, MCIWnd, DirectSound, WaveOut, WASAPI, XAudio2, etc), but none of them ever worked for professional Audio.

The proper solution was always to use ASIO, which is third-party technology by Steinberg. It works but it's not integrated with Windows: it goes directly to the audio interface, bypassing stuff in the Kernel.

This bypass causes some limitations, such as not being able to use the system mixer (which prevents from using media players or multiple audio apps), or sometimes having different audio-interfaces not work well with each other.

There are workarounds to those issues, but they have to be handled by the interface manufacturer when writing the drivers. Also, you can't have low-latency with built-in soundcard unless you use something like ASIO4ALL, which is not super stable IME. This sucks when you want to work on-the-go with headphones.

Of course, it can be very stable when you use the right combination of DAW, drivers and sound interfaces, but when you don't you have problems.

On macOS and iOS? CoreAudio is native and it has super low latency by default. It's mostly plug and play and all apps use it. It even provides APIs to use Audio Plugins or reroute Audio, so DAW writers don't even have to write it themselves (unless they want to). Do you have multiple Audio/MIDI interface? In macOS there's a built-in app to "link" them together.
Not sure why author writes using negative language about the fact that Android cannot be remotely updated? To me that sounds like an agenda to encourage the use of less privacy conscious operating systems. If the OS can be remotely updated, nothing stops bad actor from updating particular phone with a keylogger to bypass any end to end messenger a target is using and so on. Remote update is a great option if it is initiated from a trusted source.
Men have always been at higher risk for suicide and death in general than women (especially at work in dangerous jobs), at least since childbirth was made mostly safe. But men's lives don't matter in most modern societies, since they are easily replaced.

I’ve had really good luck with Tailscale (Wireguard-based mesh VPN) on Apple devices (and Linux).
For some time now, having installed it, it does not listen by default on 0.0.0.0 (all addresses) but instead on 127.0.0.1 - so the answer is no.
This reads strangely like a manager's fable about how his underlings don't do all his work for him. Their 'shortcomings' are how they don't get the boss' paperwork done, or write simple enough summaries of their work so the manager can hit 'forward' on his email to the boss.

I've been there too many times to count. But maybe its just me.

I would fear Google introducing a new product or five, then sunsetting two, letting one old product hang on while they only add new functionality to another before deprecating both to resurrect an older product, then deciding they have put enough pressure on others to accomplish their goal (competition lower prices or introduces new features) so they can kill all their domain products now.
Conservatives have done it with the second amendment and economic regulation, but Janus isn’t the reason Supreme Court appointments are such a circus. In practice, the controversy with respect to judicial appointments is mainly over social and religious issues, and specifically Roe. That’s why Barrett evoked a much more visceral and base attack on her judicial philosophy than Kavanaugh or Gorsuch: https://twitter.com/SenMarkey/status/1320808025393868800?s=2...

I don't think it's an issue on iOS, Apple is able and willing to update old devices if needs be. My 5S still receives the odd security update in iOS 12 from time to time (basically when something really big comes up).

If it would make sense, I'm pretty sure Apple could update the first iPhone still. And that would cover every iPhone 1 in existence. Android with its fragmentation makes that pretty much impossible.
I went through an alcoholism recovery program by the generosity of uncle sam, not-so-gently administered by the good ol' US Army.

They made me go to AA. For a number of reasons, it didn't stick. I didn't get it. I didn't go back.

If you're not interested, that's ok. But there's basically no barrier to entry on this 24/7 open meeting. Just go. Just log in and sit and listen for a while.

Even if you're not an alcoholic, it'll be good for you.

For those of you who might be turned off by religious talk (like i was). Just remember that this is absolutely a secular institution. It's just made up of people, and some people are religious, and that's ok.

Exactly right. "Corniness" is a symptom of the beholder's mental health challenge, not the conversation.
Very few, if any, people are suggesting that UBI is a substitute for a healthy labour force. It is typically viewed as an acknowledgement that there are serious social issues which have economic ramifications that may be addressable through a basic income.

Whether a basic income will address those problems is an open question. It may have a net positive, neutral, or negative effect depending upon the collective psychological response. In addition, how one views the outcome will depend upon their perspective. Suggesting that an UBI will result in people not working is a misleading ideological statement that has no basis in evidence. We simply don't know what the outcome will be. Even studies that indicate positive outcomes are limited by the scale of the implementation.

Besides, it's probably best to look at UBI through the lens of political stability, rather than social well being or economic outcomes.

EDIT: added a very important "not".

The 2.0 version produced errors like "uninitialized constant Process::CLOCK_MONOTONIC (NameError)"; from that I concluded that it is not compatible. I still had to apply a fix (https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9578) to make Ruby 2.1.0 compile on my test machine.

Web apps are usually slow because of (1) poor data modeling/unoptimized SQL/unindexed tables, (2) ad tracker bloat, and (3) single page applications that reinvent the DOM for $reasons.

Swapping out ruby for golang won’t fix any of those.

I’ve worked on multiple Rails apps over the past decade, responsible for hundreds of thousands of customers and hundreds of millions in revenue, that easily rendered every page in 150-300ms. This isn’t time-to-first-byte—this is fully rendered, images and all.

Haven't used this personally, and it definitely seems to have taken lots of inspiration from Todoist, Things 3, et al., but it's really great to see this sort of well-designed app that looks like a lot of thought went into the UX even for non-advanced users for linux!
I totally understand why. It just felt weird the first time I came across a beautiful Linux Mint app, that couldn't be ported to windows..

.. the cool thing is, that it is possible with WSL and it probably will be almost seamless in the future - without additional work for the devs.

I specifically want to use Planner because of the local mode. Afaik ther are no nice local-only todo apps for windows with sub-task support.
while non-steam games on windows don't quite support ps4 controllers out of the box, for games on steam (except for a few old titles that don't play well with steam input) you can simply enable ps4 controller configuration support on steam input, and they will work seamlessly, no workarounds required, with many newer games even showing proper ps4 button prompts

You have to draw the line somewhere. Daily certs would probably increase the load for CAs by a lot. Also, energy consumption for certificate management would increase.

> the pandemic has eased the housing crisis by encouraging everyone to spread out

AFAIK there were a few weeks in the first wave of the pandemic where people fled the city and landlords would face sudden issues to fill their apartments but this time is over. Speaking from anecdotes by friends trying to get apartments in the big cities thoughout Europe it has not gotten easier at all.
Travel doesn't cost any energy, only acceleration and decceleration, so if you accept a slow travel this isn't particularly expensive. Especially with drones you wouldn't need a huge spaceship with environmental systems for squishy bio-masses like humans... :)
> That is far too dry for most and you’ll likely miss key observations because you can’t possibly be up to speed with every context.

This is true, but I don't see this as a huge problem. Most 'big news' is very easily understood by lay people (e.g. "Congress is debating a pandemic relief bill" or "The World Trade Center has been struck by aircraft"), or it has a long delay before the news is actionable.

Something complex like the financial response to the pandemic leaves plenty of time to write a more thoughtful analysis. The only fast 'news' the mainstream should be reporting on is what various interested parties are saying and when to expect certain details. Anything more than that and they themselves become the fount of misinformation because they can't possibly have all the details. If the people voting on the 5,000+ page omnibus spending bill didn't have time to read it, with all their support staff pitching in ~ and considering the fact that they helped write it ~ what chance does a news organization have?

> In mainstream news the correspondent for X will helpfully add that knowledge to the story being reported so you can understand the new facts in context.

I don't think this is actually helpful at all. Very rarely is the information complete or accurate. It's always presented as being fact, when it is often more opinion. We killed a lot of people over yellowcake uranium that never actually existed while the news assured everyone it did. [0]Of course, the evidence the news was citing was debunked by our allies almost immediately.

Personally, I think so-called news should behave more responsibly, take their time, and produce more complete analysis so they can actually inform instead of mislead the people.

There seems a focus on new=improved in human thinking.

Often this is true, but fetishing change for its own sake becomes inefficient.
It is simple supply and demand. At the start of the pandemic people all over the world were selling stock, commodities, bonds, all demanding dollars. When demand goes up for something you can produce more of it without it losing value.

When the supply of dollars outpaces demand, then you get inflation. The only remedy there is to somehow decrease the supply of dollars, usually through increased taxes.
> Are there any "safe" gTLDs

AFAIK there are zero guarantees. I think .com might have some pricing obligations, but all the good .coms are taken.

Don’t rely on ICANN. They’ve proven they don’t care about registrants with the .org debacle and when they let Uniregistry raise the price of domains for _existing_ registrants.

Donuts reclassifies domains to premium, but I’ve only ever seen it after a domain expires. Donuts raised some prices a few years ago, but let existing registrants keep their pricing AFAIK.

Assume there’s strength in numbers. Any attempt to increase prices drastically on .com, .net, or .org should result in a lot of backlash.

I also consider .dev and .app safe, or at least safer than the rest, because I don’t think Google is looking to turn a huge profit with them. They’re some of the most reasonably priced too.

The new TLDs could have been awesome if the registries weren’t so short sighted. They’re priced way too high to foster wide adoption. They should all be ~$10/year IMO.
Fair, but only over time, and not truly random.

Only over time: this doesn’t help if you need _one_ fair flip.

Not random: for any 2 flips in sequence, you want a probability of ¼ to get two heads. This gets you either 70% × 30% or 30% × 70%, both of which are 0.21. That’s only 84% of the expected 0.25. In general, longer sequences of heads or tails are too rare with this method (e.g. for four flips: 70% × 30% × 70% × 30% is 0.0441; only 70.56% of the expected 0.0625. The probability of 6 consecutive heads or tails is less than 60% of what it should be, etc.)

For the record, Beagle IM and Monal are both in the macOS app store, open-source and actively maintained XMPP clients.

I generally agree with your observation though. I'm not really a macOS developer, but from the sidelines it appears it has become increasingly difficult to develop and ship open software for both Apple operating systems. See for example this discussion from a few months ago ("Can't you just right-click?"): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24217116
Unfortunately, pault is already in a happy and committed relationship.
You can remove expired certificates from the list of revoked certificates. Without expiration time that list could grow limitless making it impractical.
When I've implemented JWT in the past (yes, I know, "don't use JWT"), I've opted for public/private signatures. The public cert I would publish on some URL for all consumers of the JWT to use. The rotation of certs there was a matter of hours. It would hold 3-4 of the last certs (depending on JWT lifetime).

With inflation, the price of everything goes up, from candy bars to stocks.
Do you think it can be done? I mean realistically, not theoretically?

I see this as far too demanding for everyone, and far too short for viable alternatives to come up to be a realistic target. On the other hand, this year has shown that people are far more prepared to make huge sacrifices for what we think is the greater good than I would have expected just a year ago.
One of the issues with media consolidation and these mega corps controlling so much is that they're easily coerced. Everyone from the Chinese and the Saudis to BLM and Feminists to Islamic terrorists and North Korea and the "Christian" Right wants a veto.

It's very sad. Aside from a few rule-proving-exceptions everything is gradually getting more and more bland and people are missing out on real events and history. I don't know why people rake it all so personally. I'm Liberal and gay but I don't expect every film to have a favourably portrayed gay couple in.

Yes latency can be a killer but I have see a few tricks with sending the request for pages on hover which seem like a really smart idea but not bulletproof compared to dealing with it client side.

With offline point I believe the complexity in offline apps must be crazy if you have a SPA, you now have 3 states to manage. The backend, the frontend and now also the frontend's IndexedDB. It doesn't help when I've not seen any great example of offline first apps work that well.

And I'll be selfish from a business point of view that the development effort and technical complexity may not be worth the cost for 90% of cases.

But agreed on if you have an existing REST API, I think another advantage of it is that is can help separate concerns and allow for front end devs and backend devs to be separate. But I really think that it is a crazy amount of complexity if you are not a huge corp.

Interactivity levels is where I'm missing the piece of the puzzle, show me a picture of a user interface that would fall apart with SSR + the new Hotwire is going to be the only way I can truly appreciate when to use SPA frameworks.
The brillant writings of F.A. Hayak could very well interest those with an open mind to such things.
Google gets more money, and a domain name investor would have bought up all common words instantly if they were normal priced. Like a lot of people have held on to .com domains for decades with no intention of doing anything except selling them as an investment.
Mastery of something to serve or help and seeing good things happen from that is one of the things that bring happiness to me.

Often, I’ve blamed my employers for being miserable, but I realize now that they can contribute to happiness or unhappiness but they aren’t the primary reason for frustration or unhappiness.

My health, primarily my mental health, affects how I act and how I interpret things.

Even the best people that aren’t mentally unwell can be unhappy.

However, being unhappy most of the time is mental illness, whether it’s because of what seems like an unreasonably difficult environment or one that’s seemingly reasonable.

Some may bounce out of it and others can’t seem to, but being stuck in a mode of “I had promise and they killed it” doesn’t help anyone.

In this case maybe the “no comment” was a joke, maybe it was a bad fit, but those that aren’t unhappy most of the time should get help.
NDAs aside, there's a huge amount of knowledge diffusion throughout all industries. (And, if there weren't, gaining "experience" wouldn't be worth much. Why would I hire you as a senior person if you were literally unable to apply anything you learned in prior jobs?)
The rest of the country also has little positive sentiment for Facebook. They don't go so far as not to use it, but their opinion of it is not good.

Maybe it's because I don't live in an SV or other techie bubble that I see this, that I give more credit to the average person. Because I'm not stuck I'm an echo chamber of "general public are naive and don't care". They do care, they are more aware of some of these issues than you think. Assuming the only people who care or think about these issues are techies is an extremely condescending & patronizing view towards the average person.

Perhaps it helps broaden my view that live in a densely populated but not very techie/tech-company area and I have a large social circle of non techies. It shows me that your so-called bubble where hn/sv/techies make sweeping generalizations about the average person is often based in stereotypical fiction instead of reality. My age 65+ parents and in-laws couldn't tell you the difference between tcp & udp, setup a WiFi router, or understand the difference between a spreadsheet and a database or know what Full Stack means. But they have opinions on Facebook, and they aren't good. My few dozen coworkers of all ages are the same.
tbf the 'many options beyond these ridiculous binaries' appear to be what the OP in this thread aggressively dismissed with their argument that because gold bugs are wrong about immediate hyperinflation from deficit spending in a massive economic downturn, all other economists who argue government ability to eliminate poverty through deficit spending in other circumstances might face constraints or tradeoffs 'just want to bully and shame the people that are in a bad situation'

I don't upscale images, but my first thought is ImageMagick. Googling "upscale imagemagick" seemed to indicate that it is suitable for the task.

More generally, upscaling is probably going to be >95% established algorithms with at best a small amount of perceptual heuristics to accommodate human vision. But I wouldn't expect perceptual heuristics to be common outside of tools like Photoshop because most of the time it won't matter and SEO is going to generate more revenue for a web service than quality.

I doubt there's much proprietary technology, it's understanding graphics sufficiently to make good judgements that's going to be rare.
Maybe because certificates are treated as an ephemeral resource that needs to be managed? If a business had "the certificate" for all its lifetime I imagine it would be easier to forget revocation when it's not needed anymore.
Many companies have policies which prohibit this. It's not even specific to SV or the USA.

I'd see it as protection of both parties. The company doesn't want any reputational damage or off-message communications. The employee doesn't want to fall afoul of any liabilities they might place upon themselves or the company by revealing or promising anything they shouldn't. So personal social media activity is not prohibited, but social media activity in the context of your employment by the company is.

I suspect Apple might be far harsher than most companies if people step over the line, based upon previous examples.
