It’s not a matter of belief at this point.

great job on the landing page, it looks good!

No. This is a blatant lie that keeps being repeated without thought.

VW doesn't seem to make any van in the USA, I took a quick look and don't see any current rear-engined VW vans like the Vanagan sold in any country, but do see some front-engined styles sold in other countries.

Where do they still sell a rear engined Vanagan style van?

Wikipedia says the T3 was the last of the VW rear engined vans (last made in 2002 for the African market, and 1990 in Germany).

Does graphics switching in popos works without full system restart or at least without restarting X11? I didn't think there was a way to make switching graphics work in linux without either restarting X11 session or restarting the machine completely.

On related note - does external display works without nvidia GPU? A lot of manufactures have lately decided to hardwire external HDMI connection to descrete GPU and hence it has been pretty painful to use NVIDIA powered Laptops on Linux. :(

Creator here. I made Tellspin to solve a problem I've had at my past two jobs. Our support teams had the habit of using at-channel. I found the more they used at-channel, the less people would respond. It seemed our developers got used to feeling like someone else would handle it.

Back then I made a simple slack bot to show who would be responsible to respond to #support. It worked well, but we soon found it'd be nice to have a schedule and a way to override each other's shifts.

Tellspin has been nice because it's a thin layer between pager duty and at-channel. Most support issues don't feel like they should be paging my phone and calling me, but a direct ping from Slack feels more appropriate.

Let me know what you think.
The ethical way to pay for music is to actually buy it from a site like Bandcamp, instead of perpetually renting it from Spotify.[0] Expect to pay about $10 for an album.

Bandcamp usually takes a ~20% cut, but now has regular events where they waive their cut.[1]

It should be clear that $10/mo is not a sustainable price to pay to listen to any and all music ever recorded.

That was my impression too, then I went back a couple prior messages, and looked at the earlier announcement. Wihle Netgate looks to have overreacted (at least from the info we have), I can understand why they would be upset. This was in the original announcement:

The first step was assessing the current state of the code the previous
developer had dumped into the tree. It was not pretty. I imagined
strange Internet voices jeering, “this is what gives C a bad name!”
There were random sleeps added to “fix” race conditions, validation
functions that just returned true, catastrophic cryptographic
vulnerabilities, whole parts of the protocol unimplemented, kernel
panics, security bypasses, overflows, random printf statements deep in
crypto code, the most spectacular buffer overflows, and the whole litany
of awful things that go wrong when people aren’t careful when they write
C. Or, more simply, it seems typical of what happens when code ships
that wasn’t meant to. It was essentially an incomplete half-baked
implementation – nothing close to something anybody would want on a
production machine. Matt had to talk me out of just insisting they pull
the code entirely, and rework it more slowly and carefully for the next
release cycle.

I can understand being upset if that's how you're portrayed publicly.

Theoretically some DRM content should refuse to play at full resolution on DP connected displays due to the lack of DRM on the cable.

> Society does not owe you a high salary for your low-skilled job with plenty of competition. We tried it - it was called Communism and the society went broke while the workers went hungry. It was worst for both.

I didn't say any of that. I was commenting on the assertion that "today's situation favours the employee in most fields". Which is demonstrably untrue for many people.

And I was also implicitly asserting that society should create the conditions for all workers to be treated decently, whether or not they receive a high salary.
I'm sorry for breaking the rules by being rude, but I find your kind of argument so lazy and malignant to be more offensive than any vulgarity.

It tells me which follow up questions to ask. If during introduction the candidate talks a lot about past job A and very little about past job B, it probably means they find job A more interesting, and it will make a better topic for conversation.

(When interviewing people, you want to ask them about things they are good at, so you can properly judge their level. Asking them to select which topic to talk about accomplishes that.)

Additional, some people are just uncomfortable for the first few minutes of conversation with any new person. Asking a simple question with no wrong answer can help them feel more comfortable.

Yes this is a good point. As i recall (more than a decade ago!) the wealth taxes suggested during occupy wallstreet were mostly proposed for "Billionaires" and even "0.1%" was thrown around.
It amplifies my point though if we go up to a number that seems unfathomable (such as billionaire) the slice of people is so minuscule that even 100% taxation (effective, not marginal) dissipates into nearly effectively nothing per person across the remainder.

For example America's billionaires have about $4T of wealth[1]. If we taxed 100% of it out of their hands we'd only get 2-3 of the recent bailout bills passed, and there would be approximately 0 billionaires to tax the next time around.

> It sucks, they don't require it of Netflix, Spotify, Amazon, Disney, etc

I believe they do require this of large companies; it's been a while, but IIRC Netflix and Disney+ both allow you to sign up for the service in the app. The HBO app does, too.

You can log in with an existing account, but I thought the requirement was that you need to give a user the ability to sign up for a paid service account in app, and that signup needs to bill through Apple.

It's a moneymaker, no doubt; as a consumer, though, I appreciate not having to hand over credit card details to a random service I'm trying out for a month.
Happy user of silhouette.
What about customers who have found an app in AppStore, wanted to try it out only to find that they need to go through external websites and stuff. Not kind of UX you expect from iPhone.

This isn’t true. The risk is currently low of actually being targeted but that doesn’t mean people are not at risk.

Also law enforcement is not the only problem by a long shot. Civil suits, family court, etc, all routinely use browsing history data.
I don’t see the option anywhere, nor can I locate an announcement of any related change, but I tried an old public repo of mine (which was impossible to pull without auth, so it didn’t even work inside GitHub Actions) and it seems to work now.

> it's not going to stop if people keep buying the machines.

Reducing citizen's power to mere consumes, limited only to buy or not buy, is exactly what allows corporations to get away with these practices. It starts with one, and soon they all collude and you have no choice but to suffer their abuse or go without an entire category of products (spying smart TVs displacing dumb TVs, telecoms selling traffic data, etc.).

It's not going to stop until they're forced to stop, with legislation.
This is one of the major features yes. On iOS apps are totally prohibited from their own payment flows in app / on platform - it's completely banned.

This is extremely noticeable in a couple of areas.

Subscription - you get an email from apple BEFORE renewal, and can easily cancel subscriptions - all located in one place - no phone calls or other stupidity (try cancelling a myheritage account by contrast!)

They have integrated monitoring so if you delete an app, it will ask if you also want to cancel out the subscription for the app.

The prompting for purchase and trials is VERY explicit. So for example, NY Times has a banner (not on ios) saying signup for $1/week. Great, you do it. Then you find out that in a month it switches to something like $15/month- I mean, the scams and tricks are endless off app store.

Especially with elderly relatives or younger folks or just folks who don't want to be hassled with this game playing, these features are what make using apple so nice and help drive the premium users are willing to pay (which can be ridiculous!).

One tip - if you have elderly folks, scan their bank statement / cc statement 1x per year, you usually can save them thousands on auto-renewing stuff they no longer use.
Is there more context for this? I'm seeing an infographic sourced to "Apple App Store as of March 2021," but I don't own an iPhone so I don't know where this information comes from. Are these boxes permissions declared by the app, data collection as detected by some heuristic at Apple, or what?

This is Ruby, of course, probably something very similar can be done in several other languages.
Oh so some kind of high frequency wave. Who could have predicted that? Can you imagine all the science required to brainstorm about that one?
Absolutely.

I'm curious about your pricing. $700/month looks like the right balance between weeding out the tiny/expensive to support customers and not constraining your market too much.

How'd you land on a seat-based model? This feels to me like the kind of thing that, even in a company with a 100+ person engineering team, might be worked on by just one or two people, probably in Sales Engineering. Maybe one other person to handle the analytics side. Are you thinking that in larger companies, people from multiple product teams would do the demo for their portion of the product?

I don't have a better answer, but this is the kind of thing whose pricing should track relative to customer revenue. The more deals they close (bc of Navattic, presumably), the more you should charge.

I'm sure you've thought about this quite a bit. Interested to learn what your thinking is, if you care to share.
Not a message, but a related story that has caused me to be paranoid about possible sources of embarrassment during presentations (turning off all notifications, closing all chat apps, email, closing all browser windows, etc.)...

I was on a cybersecurity team. We were all guys and much younger at the time, so perhaps not the most mature. We also were pretty decent at what we did, so our egos were...let's go with our egos weren't in check. As a result we had a running competition of who was the best at defending their laptop from getting hacked by one of the others, and who was the best at hacking them. Notice of success was delivered by setting the desktop background and/or screensaver to one of the Absolut ad images with Fabio style men dressed in skimpy clothing. Have I covered the not very mature at the time? This also was around 2002, so social awareness of just how bad this behavior was, and how toxic it could have been if female colleagues saw it, was not on our radar at the time.

Anyways, this all came to a halt one day. The team lead had been hacked a couple days before, and the person doing it went a little overboard and put the image [1] on the screensaver, the main desktop, and the external monitor desktop. The lead deleted the image from the screensaver and the main desktop, but didn't expect it on the external monitor desktop and didn't check.

He discovered it when he connected his external monitor port to the big screen just before a presentation to a small room full of 2-stars and SESs, who were shocked at what they saw on the big screen. Our team got an earful (rightly so), and we were probably lucky we didn't get fired. That was the last of that competition, and he was getting razzed about it a little four years later when I left the company for greener pastures.

I didn't say it wasn't useful to capture the data. Indeed, I've been saying, "happy to see it done and happy to learn something if I'm wrong." Look at what I said above:

> Now, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there is something clever here to exploit in a concurrent program, and that some languages let you do that easier than others. I doubt it. It would be interesting if it turned out to be the case, but it would be a different benchmark.

So the fact that you keep trying to niggle at the specifics of parallelism tells me that you're completely and totally missing my point. You're missing the forest for the trees.

Looking back at the convo, it started by you saying, "it would be nice to see parallelism considered." Fine. I responded by saying why that particular rabbit hole is probably not be so useful, or would be measuring something totally different than the OP. To which, you kind of flipped the script and said, "However, single thread benchmarks don't reflect the real world unless you're a student." It would have been a lot better to just say, "I disagree, but I don't have time to do the benchmark myself, so we'll have to leave it at that."

There's a lot of goalpost shifting going on. Like, are we arguing whether a parallel benchmark could be useful? Or are we arguing about whether a single threaded benchmark is useless? They are two different arguments. The former gets my response above, navel gazing at why that model probably isn't particularly useful. But the latter is just crazytown.

I think what would help is, and what I've seen other companies do:

- First add a security page, I need to know you're doing basic things like encrypting the data on your end etc. Hopefully you're using at least something like KMS for your at-rest encryption (all DBs and disks) if using AWS.

- Then also publicly state on the security page something to the effect of "No Pry employee has the ability to access customer data without your explicit approval, and all access is audited". Meaning, if you need to work a support case for some customer, you have to ask them before you look at their data, and you have to track when this access occurs

- Ultimately you'll get something like a SOC2 cert to show that you actually have these controls in place that you say you do

I think with this, you'll be able to overcome some of the fears. Native apps is a shrinking market and a distraction for you IMO. Your customers are already fine with cloud solutions, since they're using Quickbooks Online, Xero etc. by definition, you just need to convince them you're trustworthy as well.

>Do you think that you spending 0% of your time managing iOS devices has something to do with apps not being able to use their own payment system?

Indirectly sure - it pays for the app store and all of the curation that goes on there. Admittedly there's a crazy healthy profit for Apple, but I believe you are arguing principles so the amount shouldn't be relevant.
