Non exploitable crash can be a denial of service, given the right configuration. Ie, filling up disk core file storage, crashing at the right time can force expensive operations to retry/rollback.
ITAR restricts the export of arms technology from the United States, but the big names in traditional digital cameras are all Japanese. Perhaps naively, I would have thought they'd have the expertise needed to build a high-quality thermal camera without US involvement. I suppose infrared imaging must be quite a bit different from visible light.
Yes - context matters. This article is about Pixar where it pays to have someone think about performance. My data points are only companies of 50 people and higher - in those cases cloud consumption was the number 2 cost line item behind people. It matters there. In most cases the people who know cost performance tend to be good at fighting latency - you need the same skills.

This may not apply on smaller side projects or places where technology is secondary.
That advice was valid 99.9999% of the time prior to this outcome.

> This looks more like T1 support made a call that T2 reversed. Not unusual.

It's not unusual and that's the problem. The process is a huge distraction to the developers and produces a great deal of undue stress if T2 is just going to override it.

Perhaps T1 should not have the authority to remove, ban, etc. They can approve all day long but rejections are escalated to T2, at which point T1 must justify the escalation and perhaps allow the developers to respond if T2 finds the escalation warranted.

Even if this Amphetamine App were found to violate ToS and need to be removed or modified, there was no urgency. It wasn't driving droves of people to Meth addiction.
I remember listening to a Masters In Business podcast [1] with the President of Qualcomm and listening to his explanation of why 5G was going to be a huge game-changer. He perked my interest by mentioning that he thought that _everything_ would have a 5G chip in it one day - garbage cans, mailboxes - but otherwise did not by my judgment give any significant reason that 5G would change something in the market when compared to 4G technology.

Does anyone have a strong reason they think that higher speeds and (I assume) low latencies would unlock something in the economy we're currently unable to achieve? I just don't see it.

FAA notified after large blue UFO seen above Oahu appeared to drop into ocean
Sorry you have to work on this thread on vacation dude (or girl). This thread has been an absolute beat down and you’ve treated it with utmost professionalism when it’s pretty clear you’re new to the team. It is Saturday night after all.
This will happen again for the devs sometime in the near future. The app developers should just pick a different name to create an easier life for themselves.

The app name is problematic if you're a bit puritanical about naming or saying certain things that are edgy, which infects most US megacorps such as Twitter, Facebook et al. I've been on the end of this because they force their puritanical cultural US standards across the world. For example, in a pub, in Scotland, I can quite comfortably tell someone to "go fuck themselves", or "don't be a cunt". The way we use language and profanity is not the same, intent-wise, as whatever internal guidelines Jack, Mark and friends arrived at from a US interpretation. Using language such as this as a Scot on Twitter, between Scots, will get you a suspension.

Personally I think it's a daft name, and couldn't recommend anyway. Not because I'm puritanical, but because it's just trying to be provocative. It's up there with GIMP which is a challenge to talk about in any human company without people sniggering.

It's Apple's store, you bought into it, you play by their Puritan corporate rules.

And sure I could stop using Twitter, FB et al, but I don't have a livelihood to protect by needing to being on these things.

It’s the plus and minus of specialization. When you have a dedicated QA team it can be harder to hold the devs accountable for the defects QA doesn’t find.
Completely agree with all of this. When you're looking at firing missiles like the P270 and P-700 AShMs that have a mass close to a small fighter aircraft, there's nothing to be gained by vertical launch here.
i always wonder (and never seem to find out) how the authors of these normal people things (‘video game’ / ‘phone’ ) addiction ideas disambiguate with generalised executive function disorders, which seem almost more common?
That doesn’t seem to be related to this topic in any obvious way.
1) Fully remote

2) ~10 minute bus ride

3) Not too well. I work at a lab as a grad student and miss school and all its facilities

4) Pros: eating out less and improved my cooking skills much
Cons: too easy to stagnate in terms of learning/making progress

5) Nothing in particular, just glad that I still have the opportunity to work despite the situation

6) For me, no. Its nice to have the option to work from home every once in a while, but in general I prefer going to a physical workplace. (it helps that my commute was very quick)

If what you say is true, this law makes no difference, so why bother critiquing it?
I think the argument is that if you don't like Steam's 30% cut you can still sell your game on other stores like Humble Store (25% cut), Epic (12% cut which is even more attractive if your game would be paying UE4 royalties), or by selling via your own website. On some platforms, you're locked into a single option

Do you have a citation for "harmful" non-ionizing effects? As far as I can tell, the body of literature has no conclusive evidence to suggest that radio waves do anything but heat the tissue that absorbs it.

Rant: Like many things that receive attention on popular and social media, agonizing over 5G distracts from issues that cause real provable widespread harm, such as UV radiation and air pollution. We rarely see articles rise to the top when they cover non-controversial points that would do well to be read by everybody, because how much buzz and discussion can you generate from "wear sunscreen", "don't drive while tired", and "get a prostate exam before you turn 50"?
Hmmm but I think people using this feature will be extremely sensitive to it reporting it exactly for their current location. Forgetting to change your zip code and it silently telling you a light time off by five minutes could be a massive problem.
Agency and independence are priceless to some people, myself included.
1) fully remote

2) 50 miles away from physical workplace.

3) Great. Life is easier with less commuting.

4) Pro: no commutes. Helping the environment by not driving, and conserving precious fossil fuels for future generations. Con: physical distance does increase the time to copy files here and there, but overall not a big deal.

5-A) I wonder if this blessing may be a curse in disguise. Will high salaries in job centers start to drop off when physical location is no longer a factor? I choose to live far away and commute specifically to get the best of both, low cost of living and high salary. Could international competition bring down salaries? Could any laws preventing this be changed? New laws written?

5-B) I think having a big monitor and a good keyboard are key. Working on the laptop directly sucks and is uncomfortable. Basically have a real desk/workplace. I notice some of my coworkers sitting on the couch with the laptop in their lap. They don't seem to mind.

6) Yes for myself. Yes for most programmers. I do wonder if there could be issues with new fresh programmers being thrown into the world with a monitor as their only view port to the team. But that's how the open source world works, and many people have learned much with that remote style of interaction.

Hey HN,

Bardun is an iOS app that merges a contacts app and notes app functionality to better manage relationships.

From a feature perspective notes can link to contacts. Notes are freeform and can be searched. You can add contacts data like emails, addresses, events, phone numbers. We support importing of contacts from phone, google contacts or calendar events.

We are focussed on privacy. Data is stored on your device only and not on our servers. Read more at https://www.bardunapp.com/blog/privacy-apps.html

I primarily use it to store information about contacts - personal and professional; and capture impactful events in my life.

I would love to get any feedback from the community!

I'm simply suggesting that developers should expect treatment from Apple that they would expect from their employer/manager (as many devs rely on app sales for their livelihoods).

> pretty soon everyone wants a sit down with Tim Cook

Most managers would (except in extreme circumstances), talk to their employee at least once before raising the topic of being fired.

> This looks more like T1 support made a call that T2 reversed. Not unusual.

Most managers would confer with their boss / HR / etc. before making the decision to fire someone.

Devs should expect the same from Apple.

It's quite useful to me when biking (I prefer to avoid gravel on my road bike, OSMAnd and brouter will show you the type and allow a few tweaks), and when on rollers (smooth asphalt is really needed, there is also a smoothness tag in OSM).

Also useful if your vehicle is capable of light offroad but not heavy offroad. After having a few fright down a dirt road in a relatively light duty off-road vehicle, I went back and made it "very horrible" in OSM.

Also, I don’t see anything particularly new in how ML computing is organized.

We’ve had vectorization, and massively parallel processors since the 80s.

All that’s new is that those techniques are being used on desktop machines now because of Moore’s law.

I’m not saying there are no new discoveries in ML, just that the engineering isn’t new.
I appreciate the well wishes, honestly it means a lot - good guess too, I am in the US (maybe you knew, but most of Confluence Cloud is based out of the West Coast offices).

> Not that anyone needs an ‘excuse’ for their personal preference

No kidding. But on this site I’ve been lectured about the “consequences” of my personal preferences (when they in no way make alternatives less viable) and told my conscious tradeoffs are actually ignorant of the things I’m trading off even after I explicitly stated them. Tech communities love to talk about choice and freedom and love to try to Jedi mind trick people out of it in the same breath.

As someone that's used a close lid macbook as my work machine for 5+ years - I've never had an issue with this.

I like The Photographer’s Ephemeris (https://www.photoephemeris.com/) which includes times for astronomical twilight, nautical twilight, civil twilight, as well as moon and sun rise and set times, golden hour, shadow estimation based on landmark position and height, and so many more great features. A very handy tool for location/photo scouting. Has a web app, APIs, and all the usual platform apps, too.
I ended up with the same approach. I used to do my idle browsing on both, the PC and the phone. In an earlier bout of productivity (many moons ago) I blocked all the usual suspects on my PC. That was several years (and PCs) ago - but there's now never an inclination to hop over to those sites on the PC and the "missing out" feeling isn't there since I can check 'em on the phone (later). For whatever reason, it feels more like goofing off when I'm on the phone, so there's a slight aversion to doing that during the regular day.
Interesting. Wonder if this has ever happened already.
> The government sought to dismiss the case, invoking the state secrets privilege because Kareem sought discovery on whether he had been targeted, the process the government used to target him, and whether the United States had attempted to kill him.

Seems like a circular argument. Is that to say, he discovered the 'state secret' that he was on a hit list (for no specified reason), and any action taken to kill him is retrospectively justified?

Makes perfect sense. Languages with first class function values may shine here, ie. Go.
I think focusing on "user facing impact" is a good idea and something I'll be using in the future. One challenge is that developers don't always know the user facing impact of their improvements.

For example if I notice a logic error in a system and fix it, I may not know what if any software configuration could trigger the error. If it were obvious, QA would've found it. And given the choice between further investigation or leaving the bug unfixed, my employer would prefer the latter.

Or one time I was working on a new feature that required speeding up the system's implementation of malloc(). That improves the performance of the entire system to varying degrees. Pinpointing exactly where the user's experience improves would require extensive benchmarking outside the scope of the work.
Country-level GeoIP sounds like it could help, and wouldn't need to be stored (i.e. not tracking).
What I want to see is Apple broken up.

Split them into a hardware company, an OS company, an app store company, and an applications company, and permanently forbid those companies from collaborating or moving into new markets.
I feel like this comment is taking the thread off track. You’re replying to a summary of the article but it seems that you aren’t really commenting on the summary (expanding something missing or disputing it) so much as commenting on the article itself. Maybe this should be a toplevel comment instead.

FWIW, while the article does note, correctly, that China were largely unhelpful with providing information or access, it seems the focus is more on how and why the US government and agencies mostly failed to act appropriately to not being able to get the data they wanted.
Obama started putting US citizens on the kill list in 2010 and once they started killing them barely anyone complained so it doesn't surprise me they just assume they can keep doing it.

Steam does not have a distribution monopoly in the same way that Apple does.

I am not in the anti Apple camp on its App Store policies, but the issue is not the 30% cut, but rather the 30% cut with no other distribution alternatives and how consistent Apple is in applying the 30% policy.

The political role of piloting in the Air Force and the way that replacing that function for a top of the line combat platform would disrupt that.

There have been rumors for years that MS is working on a standalone surface studio monitor. Fingers crossed that now with HDMI 2.1 it will become a feasible project. Until recently, you would need DP 1.4 to push that many pixels, and unfortunately that connector was not abundant.
