I've always felt cars were like computers; most people (me included) pay a premium for something mediocre because they don't want to bother understanding it.

My personal solution is to live near the metro and bike as much as possible.

Do open/free apps still need to pay these flat prices to be listed, downloaded, reviewed?
I don’t think only SMIC recruitment is banned based on the article. Could you give an example what "CPP intelligence services" are doing to "entice, bribe, or coerce our key engineers"? Politicizing all the recrements does not seem fair for employees. Basically, TSMC is trusting their employees, is that what you are saying?

This could be ONCE IN A LIFETIME career jump, using national security as a reason to deny employees’ career development and salaries negotiation doesn’t seem fair.
I’m a huge fan of my Ergodox EZ. Picked up one for home and one for work from https://ergodox-ez.com/

It runs QMK (https://docs.qmk.fm/#/) and is very customizable.

I thinks what Apple is arguing is that the benefit is having access to, and the opportunity to sell to, users of iOS devices.

If Target wants to charge for shelf space I don’t see why Apple shouldn’t be able to charge for the use of their platform in any capacity.
I joined this website to say this.
>Bad business decision most likely, but principled at least.

Are you trolling? Apple and principles ? They are giving Chinese customers information to the government and do bussiness with Saudi Arabia that would execute all those gay Apple executives if they could, are this principles??? Or you mean "Ferengi principles"
I think automatic transmissions are more impressive looking than engines when they're open. They resemble EV motors too!
It doesn't though. It fails when it comes to repairability, re-use and reduction of e-waste. This is the topic of the primary article, and therefore the context for this thread.

You can also weld an entire car together to make it cheaper, but this is not something we should celebrate or promote if it impacts the environment in terms of repair.

But yes, I value your opinion so don't want to shut you out of the discussion, I'm just saying there are more important things than making sure an executive at Apple or Google pockets a few more $100 bills.
I think the issue here is that almost anything can be represented as a neural network. You could create a neural network that does a xor operation, for example. There is nothing new about this.
Find me a low power discrete CPU and we can draw the board for another open source phone together.
In a few decades the internal combustion engine will be to transportation what the typewriter is to typing today. It’s kind of mind boggling, but there is really no alternative if we want to stop increasing the CO2 concentration in our atmosphere.
Technically not really true, it's based on a complex system where if your run rate ever exceeds $1m (even temporarily) you get bumped into the 30% bracket for this year and the next year, even if your revenue next year is 100k. (I'm still confused that they decided to make the system that complicated, it can't increase their profits THAT much.)

This system coincidentally punishes non-subscription products like non-IAP games, where your "launch" produces a big revenue spike and then you have a much smaller long tail of revenue. To avoid getting punished by this, you'd have to optimize for a lower-revenue launch and more stable long-term revenue... i.e. a subscription.
That was my impression as well. The only real negativity was from the author of the thread (e.g. the "@jasonfried, I hope you enjoy your fucking sauna." comment), who AFAICT is not / was not affiliated with Basecamp.

That said, I think there are quite enough "openly woke" companies that it's not going to be hard for any of these people to find a welcoming home. Especially if they manage to successfully play the martyr on social media. This is where our society is at right now.

Overall this is probably a win/win -- the employees who left were surely the ones most dedicated to keeping the office political. Basecamp got rid of them and can rebuild with a team that's more aligned with the new policy, and those employees can find new jobs at companies that don't mind being political.
Oh, I do notarization after building my .zip containing my .pkg, are you saying I could notarize each bundle separately and I dont need to notarize the final .zip ?
"That is to say imaginary property is a set of restrictions on how I am allowed to use my actual property."

No. You yourself are not re-arranging any bits. Your computer receives bits, then decodes them, and plays them. There is no "re-arrange bits exactly like this album" button.

You wouldn't say that LPs are "placing restrictions on your record player". The artist may no longer have that specific product, but you can't really re-arrange the grooves on a record however you please either.

"This restriction is supposed to be justified by society benefiting from the useful arts and sciences."

I don't disagree that copyright law is poorly implemented. However, I do disagree that society somehow isn't benefiting from artists being paid for the work. It takes a -lot- of man hours to produce music, record it, mix and master it, and distribute it for release. None of that changes just because we distribute the end result electronically now.

If someone takes months and years to come up with an engaging story and universe for a book, they deserve to own that creation and get paid for it. Why would anyone make anything creative in a world where it would be impossible to make a living from that work? Are we to expect artists to have infinite money supply and just produce things for our leisure, for free?

This is just entitlement, with playing games about technicalities of distribution mediums to justify not paying people for their work. No one is forcing people to claim ownership of the things you create; Go ahead and write a book and make it public domain. Produce an album and make it public domain, if you feel that strongly about ownership. You can pay in the time, money, and man-hours of work involved yourself and still keep it free and public domain.
The demand for smartphones is hundreds of millions per year. Manufacturing a hundred million of a complex thing is orders of magnitude more difficult than manufacturing ones of millions of a complex thing. A small complex thing with tight tolerances is harder yet.

Setting a part in a jig, brushing a dab of glue, and setting a second part on top is much faster than the same process but fastening a couple screws to the appropriate tightness. It's also less error prone and creates a better bond between the parts.

Apple and Samsung pump out tens of millions of phones a quarter. The more effort required for each stage of assembly ends up the difference of millions of phones manufactured in the same period of time.
Nothing wrong with printing more money, how else would they keep that inflation going?

Edit: not joking/sarcastic. The amount of currency in circulation needs to increase or there's no inflation. And inflation is considered necessary for people to not just sit on their treasure chests and not spend.
Makes sense. I particularly like the "more power to them". :)
Netflix needs a pivot to stay relevant. Right now it looks like self programming, but everyone else can do that, and Disney can do it better. They'll be around, probably more like Hallmark channel than the big name they are now.
I have cautiously considered at least two more years of dealing with pandemic in all my plans because we can't confidently say anything now. We're still learning how long COVID-19 vaccines protect people which has a direct impact on how long it will take to get rid of it properly.
To reframe this on race, there's been a couple of (from an engineering perspective) gobsmacking demos of how non-diverse developers end up making something that just does not work for people who don't look like them.

The soap dispenser that doesn't recognize dark skin:

https://gizmodo.com/why-cant-this-soap-dispenser-identify-da...

Facial recognition systems that don't work well on dark-skinned people:

https://www.wired.com/story/best-algorithms-struggle-recogni...

I can't find it now but there's another demo of the simple face detection algorithm (not recognition, just highlighting that "here is a face") simply not detecting a dark-skinned person til she lifts up a white mask to her face, and then it detects a "face" immediately.

Something as simple as soap dispenser not detecting dark skin, would that have made it out into production if they'd had a dark-skinned person on the team? Something as basic as, "Hey this doesn't work on Jim, maybe we should tweak the sensor a bit."

That's where some diversity matters, just so that your products work on everyone out there.
You should look into Proxmox PVE.

It offers a nice Web UI for QEMU and LXC and makes the whole experience quite good.

I came from VirtualBox too and never looked back.
This is client side javascript right? Did they push a bad release, or is the server not responding appropriately?
So be more strict with system APIs?

We can go back and forth forever with what-ifs. It's nothing we cant overcome in the future.
> They just got greedy and started acting like assholes when it came to their competition.

I think we can all find examples when platforms were not "greedy" and eventually got pushed out as irrelevant. That's why Apple and others will try to leverage their position to promote their new services.

The 30% cut is fine - VISA charges a % and so do many other businesses.

It's the 'market power / monopoly' issue that is the problem.

Apple needs to allow 3rd part app stores and direct downloads and that's it.

They can keep their 15%/30% if they think the market will allow that.

The 'security' issue is a canard because the Android world is not effectively less secure. Moreover, Apple could still make certain security/notarization requirements, strictly technical.

Too many people are weirdly supportive of their control - it's totally fine and frankly understandable if you want to 'just use the App Store' - but it's not good to limit others.

Vertical consolidation within industries is usually a bad thing, not always, but it's definitely bad when these power/monopolies are created.

On the other side of the equation, Apple has a 'Monopsony' in other areas as well (exclusive buyer by force) which can be looked at.

The M1 chip, design, great apps - compete there, but indirect downloads, 'self repair', probably battery/disk/memory upgrade replacement etc. should be open.
Ditto. Thanks.

For a project that small you can use NoSQL without issue because you can always scan the whole thing when needed. For larger data sets you want the relational model unless you're very sure you don't need it (and most people who think they're in this category are just wrong and will find out later the hard way.)
First off, you need transportation to work. In most of America, this means, you need a car, gas, insurance, and maintenance.

Secondly, you need uniforms. These are often paid for out of your check and come from companies that have pretty comfortable markup.

Then you have the "expensive to be poor items" Such as getting your paycheck on what amounts to a Visa gift card, because cheap employers are transitioning to payment services that offload the cost of associated with payroll onto the employees. These cards have relatively high maintenance fees, and charge for things like actually getting your money.

That's not even getting into shit like, "split shifts" where you have to work a few hours, take a multi-hour break, then work a few more hours. This means that you have to stay at work for 8 hours, but only get paid for maybe 4-6 of them. While you could leave, it would cost you money to do so.

I've gone through this with younger siblings over the years. One in particular was a delivery driver, and factoring in cost of their car, the only reason they thought they were making money was because they were hiding the depreciation on their car through very long car loans and were not paying for the insurance coverage they should have been.

Most low wage positions are only possible because they are subsidized by someone else, maybe it is a parent who lets them live rent free, or they subsist on credit card debt and payday loans to handle emergencies.
If a third of the people were willing to leave the company over a decision, it sounds like there was a real, meaningful mismatch in priorities.

Which is fine, but it's for the best for everyone to end that mismatch.
I think the recruitment ban policy is super-smart given the context.

Nice post about how Taiwan's work environment is sadly missing its potential:

>>Last year, the project trained about 5,000 students in AI technology and 50,000 digital marketers.

>I feel like Taiwan represents a talent opportunity like no other. I dream of starting an engineering company there that is literally a clone of some upcoming business model, and doing nothing but capping the work week at 40 hours and guaranteeing 4 weeks vacation. I could snipe the best talent on hand in the country, which is at the very least equal to some of the best silicon valley has to offer, at nearly half the rates. Lord forbid we target foreign contracts and the company can pay near US rates. I'd pilfer everyone's engineering department ;)

>Overworked, underpaid, extremely competent was my experience of Taiwanese engineering. Google is good to step up in Taiwan - I believe it will pay dividends for them. I wonder what the Google work culture and salaries are like for their Taipei 101 office engineers? Last I checked it was about 2,000$/month for entry level.
> I tried things like LibreElec and other Linux-based solutions including just straight ubuntu and they always had sound issues when switching between Kodi and the browser. Yes, I did try both Pulse and ALSA. How is this still a problem in 2021?

It might be your hardware. I have a similar setup with an Ubuntu box hooked up to my TV, and I haven't had issues with sound when switching between Kodi and the browser. The last time I had issues with audio on Linux was over a decade ago.

There are USB sound cards that you can pick up for a few bucks, and it might be worth trying one out.

How do you define the basics of survival? In parts of the world people live with 2 hamburgers a day, is that what you propose? Even $15/hour seems huge compared with basics of survival.

Also, there are not enough executives to take from them to give to the poor. You need 100 or 1000 times more for that, so the executives theme is a straw man.
I have tried to get them to update some of their docs before, and they basically told me to just write a comment (at the bottom of 130+ other comments). It's great that they have so many docs, though.
It sounds like a problem the IT department should solve. No?
I haven't been this excited about anything in web dev for a while.
The developer pays the code signing fee once instead of each end user paying the fee on an ongoing basis. Not comparable
> Does anyone here care that none of the Taiwanese want to be part of China?

It would probably help if Taiwan had nuclear weapons. China wouldn't risk an invasion. That or maybe I don't know enough about Asia.
Reference equality's inability to survive a persistence round trip is the big killer. And sneaking in a round trip in a process that used to be fully in memory is where dragons lurk.
I've seen the macbook air schematic/vector art for the board (I had to replace that BGA backlight driver on my sister's laptop.) It's certainly big but at the end of the day it's networks of chips and L/R/C like any other circuit, you just walk through it like any other maze/graph and get to where you need to be.
There is zero reason to believe that this superficial appearance is due to innate wiring.

Female aspies tend to be under diagnosed because girls get pressured to conform socially so much that even when they have an actual social disability, they are expected to get with the program anyway.

That right there is shocking evidence of the extreme social pressure the world places on girls and not boys.
Is there a good TV media player (like Roku) that can play web video content? I like to watch lots of local youth sports through BallerTV, but they don't have a Roku or XBox app. I'd love to find a device that had a good web browser and played video content (I feel like the XBox purposely doesn't support a lot of video through their web browser), where I didn't have to hook up a computer to the TV.

I'm not sure if that addresses your concern (maybe you're worried they're lying or they have a bug in their process)?
Cool to see everyone gearing up for "it's totally not overtly hostile to the citizenry if elitists crash a domestic economy to help global markets behave more efficiently twenty years from now."

The Chinese companies are owned or funded by the government, they don't have to worry about profit. It is geopolitical economic warfare. A company cannot compete against that without government help.
I knew I've seen this style before. The Great Wave has definitely been reproduced all over the place.

The most recent "reproduction" is the "Water Breathing" from Demon Slayer. Every water attack from the water-users is depicted with a "Great Wave-like" painting.

https://static3.cbrimages.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2...

What's interesting about Demon Slayer's artstyle is their ability to animate this style. Which is shown pretty well throughout the Demon Slayer's opening. It really looks great in motion.

Glad to know the name of this classic woodblock painting that's inspired so many others.
Fire TV lets you sideload, i.e. NBC's Peacock. Otherwise Google's new "Chromecast with Google TV" is a cheap option, or Nvidia's Shield.
As parent said, history is not just commit messages.

Trivial example from yesterday: "this worked last week... what did they even touch inbetween?", look at the most relevant commit diff, context makes it obvious someone just accidentally deleted a line too many while replacing a code block.

For more complex stuff, it's helpful for "what were they trying to do with this line", "what's the requirements document they worked off when they wrote this", "which other versions are likely to have this bug too", "Is this new and I can go ask whoever wrote this about it or is it years old", ...
Taiwan was run by a military dictatorship until 1986

*edit: 1986 was a long time ago, but the point is that the KMT was a corrupt and unpopular government which lost to the Communists, but the US held its nose and propped it up for 30+ years until Nixon needed a counterweight to the USSR and opened relations with China.
>If Google then makes Google Maps and Gmail exclusive for the iOS Play Store, all bets are off and the biggest reason why I prefer the iPhone is destroyed. And I will be sad and angry that other people wilfully supported its destruction.

So is fine if Apple does not put iMessages on other stores or let open source people to create a bridge to talk with iMessages.

If there are many people like you say 50% that won't unlock the phone then Google and FB will put their apps on all stores because there are more users. But if you are just 1% then it is fair that the 99% should not suffer because you want unfair stuff because it advantages you.
There's already a flat fee for free apps (the developer fees), and every customer has already paid a flat fee (buying the phone)
This seems like a fun, educational project, yet I am surprised to see this on the front page of HN given that the article is - at its core - promotional material for Twilio and was submitted by “Director of Developer Content @ Twilio”.

> Most tech workers should be earning in seven digits

According to which metric?
I don't think that's a fair assessment, and it is also not fair to the designers of WebAssembly. They certainly have spent a lot of thoughts on protecting the host (e.g., browser, underlying OS) from _malicious_ WebAssembly code. This is what we call "host security" in the introduction of the paper. Modulo implementation bugs (which is orthogonal to the design of the language), WebAssembly applications cannot break out of the sandbox more than arbitrary JavaScript already can.

However, what we look at in the paper is "binary security", i.e., whether _vulnerable_ WebAssembly binaries can be exploited by malicious _inputs_ themselves. Our paper says: Yes, and in some cases those write primitives are more easily obtainable and more powerful than in native programs. (Example: stack-based buffer overflows can overwrite into the heap; string literals are not truly constant, but can be overwritten.)
By envelope-from (whatever @ verified with SES), do you mean the `MAIL FROM` command in SMTP protocol or do you mean the `header FROM` in the email header?

I don't know how `send_raw` work under the hood in Rust, but without a way to set `from` header. how do recipient(say an @gmail.com) address show the original from too?

Did I miss something here? It would be great if somehow the email is forward as it's in so it appear in my inbox and all the information(header) is retain.

> just wrap the original email in an 'envelope'

It would be great if you can help clear my mind on how to do that. Say I got an email as this:

FROM: original-from
DKIM: dkim sign
Return-Path: etc
Other header:

Body of email appear here

How can I use AWS SES to forward that email as-is to my @gmail.com account for example while still keep in the original header intact(so DKIM/DMARC still work. SPF will be break but it's fine for me)
If a symphonic performer can't run through some scales, or a doctor cant suture a laceration, I would say that is indicative of a major problem.

If you owned a restaurant, would you hire a hostess that couldn't operate a telephone, or a cook that couldn't turn on a stove?

Similarly I wouldn't hire a programmer that could not turn an array into a linked list.
Google workers probably do have other options. Maybe not as financially lucritive but they should be able to find work.

I have had people threaten to quit as we transition back to the office. These are tier 1 support people. I dont expect Ill have any no-call no-shows monday though.

We also have people that have straight up MOVED to other cities (or in one case, refused to move to our city despite it being a condition of employment).

I'm curious how those will play out.
