The fact that it can be unlocked with a picture doesn't mean it has no security.

The main use case for phone locking is that you leave your phone in a cab, a bar or wherever else in public and someone picks it up later. That person isn't going to know who you are and have a picture of you. They're still prevented from being able to take the phone they just saw laying around and go through your emails, etc.

The planned obsolescence of incandescent light bulbs is largely a myth. While there are plenty of real examples of planned obsolescence, with incandescent light bulbs there are engineering tradeoffs between longevity and efficiency. Basically, the longer lasting a bulb is, the dimmer and less efficient it is. If you've ever seen any of the supposed 100 year old bulbs, you'll notice that they're extremely dim. Before, during, and after the Phoebus cartel incandescent light bulbs were (and still are!) standardized to 1000 hours. Why? Because that happens to be a good trade off between longevity and efficiency. It just doesn't make sense to waste an extra $5 on electricity to make a $1 light bulb last longer.

You have always been able to buy long life incandescent light bulbs, and still can to this day. They're called rough service bulbs, made for ovens and closets and areas used infrequently. People just never used them for general purpose lighting because they're dim and power hungry.

If you read the report by the British monopolies commission quoted in this article, you'll notice that they came to the same conclusion [1]. Pop science articles and Reddit love to bring out the Phoebus cartel over and over as an example of planned obsolescence, but always completely ignore the factors that go into making a good incandescent light bulb.

I have a very nice stable of ICE40 and ECP5 FPGA boards, but I always go back to Intel FPGAs for development. And when I’m done, I may port it to an open source supported FPGA.

Because the synthesis QoR and features of Quartus (don’t confuse it with the Quartus GUI) is miles ahead of Yosys and NextPnR.

And, most important, the ease of use and features of Signaltap. The open source equivalents for that don’t come close.

Right, and while we're on the topic: it's 2020, and I still can't send a file from computer to computer without going via gmail. Why not?

The exception is Airdrop. But with a Windows computer or Android phone on either end, there's (at best) Bluetooth file transfer which is slow, unreliable and painful. Or there's scp (you get the joke, right?)

The point is, the technical infrastructure exists, but nobody has bothered to implement this simple stuff for ordinary users. A testament to the power of the public goods problem to block even simple, long-overdue improvements?

"laser turntables are designed to play 33rpm discs. Most will not spin at 78rpm. There is broad agreement they do not sound as good as stylus playback. I.R.E.N.E. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRENE_(technology)) captures the disc as an image, then transforms that into sound. It is not way slower than real time, and while it is arguable that the resolution of the image is superior to stylus playback, the software is not yet able to produce results as good as stylus playback. And it introduces it’s own, idiomatic noise spectrum. On the other hand it is far and away the best system for ‘playing’ damaged or compromised discs, such as lacquers that are beginning to delaminate."

I hate TouchID, never works when my fingers are sweaty or I'm cooking or anything like that.

FaceID is perfect.
This isn't actually how it works out though, because average women or below average women can get dozens of matches, not ever receive a message or have the conversation fizzle out quickly from about 80% of those matches, end up on dates with 10 of them, and then have 6-8 of those men just end up ghosting after 1-5 dates or just eventually saying they don't feel a romantic connection after a few months of uncommitted casual sex.

So yes men swipe right on tons of women, but the percentage of women in that pool that those men would date and not just hook up with is much much smaller.

Obviously caveat that men truly at the bottom of the dating pool might behave differently.
Here's what George Blood, the digitizer, reports:

cutting benefits and paying out the cash value of them so you can decide what to do with it. i understand the objections to the other points in the post, but why do you present half the story on this one?
Interesting, thanks.

I wonder how much of this is deliberate collusion, as opposed to an equilibrium where companies all realize that it's more profitable to match each others' fees than to try to compete on price.

If other app stores charge 30%, you know that developers are willing to pay 30%, and there's not much to be gained by reducing your own rate below that.
Culture isn't going to lead to women magically sprouting beards. It may make the small percentage of women with facial hair not shave it off, but most women of whatever culture you're talking about(Sikh I presume) aren't going to have a beard because they can't grow one in the first place.

Somewhat related, but this thread made me look into it - and it seems a huge oversight that there isn't a "pregnant man" emoji - only pregnant woman. Probably all unicode emojis accepted with a certain gender variant should just include the other major gender variant as well. I can't really think of something that one gender can do that another gender can't do, if you allow that people can change their gender at will.

Both is fine with me. FaceID is great for any time you've got gloves on.

I wish they had an external version of it, e.g. an apple keyboard with touchID or support for generic webcams for FaceID so it'd work when docked, etc.

Assuming you are asking in good faith: I am guessing they are referring to Hollywood generally having a liberal political mindset and many things the left has been championing lately have been upsetting the right. Basically more evidence of our society being hyper-politicized or perceiving it that way.
I did the same thing, youtube recently dropped support for the older AppleTV and I had no interest in shelling out extra money for 4k or the option to play games i'm never going to play.

This TV set-top box arms race is so stupid. The smart TV apps stopped working so I got an AppleTV. That stopped working so I got a Roku. When that stops working I guess i'll just go the full PC route with a NUC and a nice interface like Kodi.
Apple Watch is not required; it is a convenience option that can be used to unlock the phone if you are masked.
Another reason to buy an Apple Watch. It works out perfectly for Apple.

Just as a reminder (from someone who admittedly knows little about cryptocurrencies aside from this): BTC and other cryptocurrencies are not anonymous. They are, at the most, pseudonymous, and because of their very nature, the trail linking whatever online identity you used to make the transaction lives forever on the blockchain.

Only slightly educated guess forthcoming.

Air pollution was pretty bad in the United States from the 1950s through the late 1980s, and we know that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_dimming has kept temperatures down a bit.

So basically from the early 1970s through the 1990s in the United States, the amount of 'global dimming' type air pollution decreased tremendously, because of a number of factors, including all sorts of clean air mandates and regulation.

Dating sites have a unique business model where a successful user no longer needs your product. So how do you make money from that?

Charging monthly fees creates perverse incentives. It will be in their best interest to avoid giving you a good match while trying to make it look like they're trying.

A one-time fee will make a user feel ripped off if they never end up landing a date.

You could try a model where you pay them once you go on a date (Or some other metric of "success"), but users could easily lie.

I met my wife on OKCupid back in 2010, so I haven't had the pleasure/pain of using Tinder, but from what I know of it, it worries me. OKCupid was designed from the ground up to actually show you matches that you might be compatible with on a personality level, while Tinder is rather superficial, making appearance the most important. In other words, you're less likely to find a successful long-term relationship on Tinder.

As a side note, it's always seemed rather paradoxical that dating sites have far more men than women on them. I would think that the numbers would be more equal, since the population split among the sexes is pretty close to 50/50.

Yes, the current use case of cryptocurrency is breaking or avoiding the law, it has yet to find a use case outside that.

If the law is your baseline standard for what is moral, then you should probably try a little harder and put some thought into whether or not cryptocurrencies deserve to actually be illegal. For the most part, it is not illegal to own or trade in cryptocurrencies in the developed world.

The US dollar has far more infrastructure and institutional support preventing it's collapse than bitcoin.

No room on the front - fine, but under the screen readers have been improving a ton and I'm sure Apple could figure out something.

Don't want the sensor on the back - I don't understand this. Why not? It works for other devices, and they could even make the Apple logo into a reader to be discreet.

I ran through the demo for a bit. It's an interesting idea, but I'm very much not into changing the rules out from under the user. That creates an unnecessary layer of complexity, and prohibits exploration.

This might seem a little far afield, but I've been playing a lot of Baba Is You lately. For a game that's all about rewriting rules, a lot of logic is completely arbitrary. Why does "Stop" take precedence over "Defeat", and why does "Rock is Rock" take precedence over "Rock is Water"? In the end, it doesn't matter, because the game is consistent, so you learn the rules once and can rely on that behavior.
