I believe that consumer grade displays are inherently designed to be replaced vs serviced whenever they go bad. But, if your mind is wired-up to learn more and tinker with things, you can generally figure out a way to prop it open and fix it yourself. I don't know much about your exact LG model but I am pretty sure you could drive it with another more generic controller off AliExpress.com. What makes consumer grade displays a bit more interesting is that they generally come with the audio component. If that wasn't a big concern, you could easily drive it using another generic controller or an LVDS compatible mini-itx motherboard.
Given the list of what makes an execution person, would be a dumb mistake for someone like that to work for someone else. If you can do it all yourself, others would just slowly you down, seemingly.
That's true but consumers would definitely be empowered if Apple received a similar ruling.
It's called Terraforming. Make a big fire to release enough CO2 until Mars gets warm. That will melt the ice caps, so you have water. Finally, plant plants and let them oxidize the atmosphere. Estimated 500 to 5000 years.

I don't see this being true as hackers targetting.

Cyber insurance is not generally public information.

Moreover, there are different flavors of cyber insurance. Some of which cover ransom pay and some do not.

Having knowledge at such a thing means only 1 thing: Someone in the hacker group has access to insider information. Only select people have access to such policies.

Call me a skeptic but i would assume 1 of 100 such hacks don't actually know the cyber coverage that the target has. The ratio of 1:100 may be larger if you expanded the question to Hackers knowing which companies have Cyber coverage... but not which flavor. I still think this is a limited number anyway.

AXA here is just taking the easy route out. A lot of unsuspecting customers (startups) will buy this and get surprised 10 years from now, because their CEO did not bother to read the fine print of a 30 page document.

It is if you need to know the speed limit during that 30 seconds and it causes you to get into an accident. I've strongly felt like Tesla drivers were the biggest assholes on the road, and things like "how fast I'm going doesn't really matter" is a pretty good confirmation of that.
Commercial and industrial software are very different things. Humans are an unreliable gate to safety and reliability, so if the gate to staying in the air is a human doing something that they can't see the results of it will inevitably fail.
> slow and steady wins the race

It's a popular saying but a lot of people don't seem to recall the parable. A slow and steady tortoise only wins the race if the rabbit sprints a little bit but then gets too cocky and decides to take a nap and rest for a while (or gets stuck for some other reason.) If the fast rabbit keeps moving forward unrelentingly, then the slow tortoise doesn't stand a snowball's chance in hell.

So far, SpaceX has been a rabbit that doesn't stop to take breaks. In scenarios like this, "slow and steady" becomes little more than a lame excuse for moving slow, not a legitimate plan to get ahead.
I'd buy one. Is this something you can do like Drop where you take orders and only release if you get enough orders to make it worth while?

I guess you have to deal with bad units and other stuff but just wondering.

I think people will have different ideas of "dumb". For example.

* A TV with only 1 input. If you want more inputs get an external switch etc...

* A TV with no audio. If you want audio use external speakers

* A TV with no remote. With the 2 things above all you need is on an off? And/Or maybe just support whatever the protocol is so that other devices can control it.

Just thinking out loud, I'm sure there's a big disagreement on what's the minimal features.

There are some pros of martian colonization efforts over comparable efforts in the Gobi desert. For one there is a compelling reason to colonize for at least a portion of the population. It would be the opportunity of a lifetime to study planetary geology up close, put terraforming theories to the test, and produce fuel/water for further space missions using the reduced gravity and atmospheric drag.

On the other hand the fact that "going for a walk" will be extremely difficult will motivate increased focus on cavern excavation and other construction underground. These are "necessities" on mars but would be "interesting" in the gobi dessert.

Oort is (mostly) in the solar plane AFAIU, and there's every reason to use gravity assist to get there. I don't know that any specific objects are known, and getting into an Oort-observing orbit might be challenging. Otherwise, yesm it's sparse and arbitrary flybys would likely miss anything interesting.

Spraying random probes in all directions makes lttle sense.

Not only that, if Chrome gets enough marketshare on iOS Google could do things like taking away 5-20% of a huge fraction of iOS devices' battery life just by shipping a somewhat less efficient build, plus doing the same with any embedded versions they'd manage to convince everyone to use in their apps. I mean, Chrome's already less efficient than Safari, so that much of a penalty might happen regardless, but they could accidentally-on-purpose fail to optimize new features in their iOS code to harm their only competitor in the mobile OS arena.

"But developers and users wouldn't stand for that!" OK except I can take 4-6 hours off my M1 Macbook's battery life by using a couple Electron apps and favoring Chrome over Safari. Lots of people do exactly that, maybe not because they want to, but because they need those crappy programs to get work done.

No, the internet and mesh networks like these are both surveilance networks. Increasing the number of options availiable doesn't really do much if the end result is the same. So tell that to your folks.

>Also, I'm not sure where people are getting that Amazon is bad at privacy

I think you should forward all your emails, internet traffic, and transaction history to me. Also install a microphone/tracking device in your house, on your kids and on your pets. Why? Well you don't really gain anything, but it will give you convenient access to my new lineup of time-wasting machines. Don't worry, I haven't had any major user privacy/data scandals so it's cool. But if you don't want to do that, it's fine because your neighbors are part of the program and their devices will snitch to me about your TV/Car/Thermostat. Be seeing you.
There’s so many products that fall into this category. Stuff designed several decades ago was often more reliable and easier to fix with simple tools (I’m thinking of Japanese cars in the 90s up to the early 2000s but you can apply it to many products). And now with ‘smart’ products, aka internet of shit, it’s gotten worse. I have a modded iPod classic for this reason, keep a NAS for ripped media, keep a dumb TV as long as it lives, use a bombproof Casio instead of a flaky smartwatch, etc. You don’t have to waste mental cycles by complicating your life with unreliable crap.

I hope the GP succeeds with a Kickstarter or whatever, I’d definitely be in the market for such a TV.
Throw up a Patreon or Kickstarter and I'll commit immediately to a set from the first run production.

The problem there is that ratios are still important. If you are using 70% of your income on housing, you will lose your house as soon as you lose your job. Unless you spend less than 10% of your remaining income, you can’t really save for retirement or a rainy day. The ratios still matter unless you assume people never lose work (which isn’t realistic).

I think this is great work. Hopefully this can motivate upstream to reconsider the proposal for it. In the long run I don't think anybody wants to run with a forked version of Go for better profiling.

> The ability to monitor go programs with a very high sampling frequency — up to 10s of microseconds

I'm curious about the overhead of this and will probably try to measure. This work certainly overcomes the limitations of setitimer(2) for sampling rate, but faster sampling is going to increase the performance overhead significantly.

In particular Go's built-in stack unwinding APIs use gopclntab (which is Go's Plan9 inspired version of eh_frame). This is rather slow compared to frame pointer unwinding (up to 55x in my testing). I think on average you can expect to spend at least 1 microsecond on unwinding, and then some additional time hashing the stack and updating the in-memory profile (perhaps another microsecond? I haven't measured this part yet). I've started writing some of this up here [1] but it's still WIP.

Anyway, based on the above, sampling every 10usec will likely slow the target program by ~20%. This is probably a very optimistic estimate because it doesn't take into account all the CPU cache thrashing that will happen.

As I said, I'll try to take a closer look later, but if anybody has some insights/comments here I'd be very interested.

This isn't how regular people think though. When presented with X products, with different features but generally good quality, people choose with their gut. You are an extreme minority if you deviate from this pattern.

Not to mention, most products can't carry themselves by word of mouth. Only a select few. Advertising prevents concentration of mindshare.
> What does it mean that they underpay their workers, except that they pay them a smaller percentage of the economic value produced by their labor than you think they should?

That's easy to measure. These companies have a per-employee revenue which is easily a 5-10x multiple of average total compensation paid per employee, and in some cases it's also much less than the per-employee profit.

So they could pay a ton more while also making a healthy profit. Apple is the worst example of this.

My apologies for the delay in responding. I haven't been on HN for a while.

To what sorts of "anti competitive shenanigans" are you referring? I'm not being snarky, I just don't see how local control can lead to widespread anti-competitive behavior.

Requiring local ownership/management of the last mile, with various service providers competing to provide services on that infrastructure seems like it would keep the decision-making processes for each local network from being centralized and would pretty much avoid widespread anti-competitive practices.

In comparison, the breakup of AT&T pretty closely followed your suggestion. How has that worked out?

The original seven Regional Bell Operating Companies (RBOCs) have merged down to three[0]. What's more, both Verizon and AT&T (Nee SBC Communications) have acquired content producers, as well as being ISPs.

Requiring local management of the last mile makes much more sense than the what you describe, which (as I mentioned)mirrors the landscape after the 1984 AT&T consent decree[1], that has resulted in increased centralization, poor service and anti-competitive tactics by the players.

Please understand that I'm not attacking you. Rather, I don't understand what specific issues you have with local control (whether that be local governments or quasi-public corporations[2][3][4]) of last-mile networks.

I'd appreciate it if you would expand upon your statement, as I'm not at all clear what specific concerns you have.

All these points are correct, but you leave out the counterpoint which is that once a company has recurring revenue, the incentive to update the software in ways that benefit the existing users can be lower.

Increasing the size of the user base becomes a priority over refining service for existing users, and that often means developing features that existing users don’t need or changing the UI in ways that make things easier for new users but worse for power users.
In your first paragraph, you say there's no way to contact trace outdoors, and in the second you say there are documented cases of it happening.

There are ways to predict your chances of getting infected from someone outdoors. You back-trace from known cases, identify the people they have interacted with, and from those that later contracted Covid, you note whether the contact was indoors or outdoors. There is plenty of data to do that with.
Employees targeted by workplace wellbeing efforts are employees that need to be retained, almost always because of limited availability (see software). Let's no kid ourselves into thinking that in 2021 a software engineer will go homeless if they lose their job.
Why does anyone want a smart TV at all or any other device? Almost everyone I know has an old tablet or laptop that they don't use at home. Get a dumb tv / projector (or even a smart tv but don't connect it to your network and use its smart features), plug the old laptop/tablet in using HDMI and use a bluetooth keyboard with a trackpad as a remote.
You get everything you want with it - browser to login and watch whatever you want to, much much better experience typing in login/passwords than your tv remote, install whatever adblocks/security software you want.
Added bonus, instead of buying another device you'd be using an old laptop/tablet you'd discard otherwise.
All those things, except units, can be done in Matlab. You can just drop a file into your workspace and they'll parse it!

Bridges are gold. Anyone who tells you they aren't lives by a stream, not a proper river.

In Bangledesh there are families who build living bridges that their children and grandchildren will be the first to use.

I've lived consecutively in two areas for which I thought, "they need more bridges here" and if you stop to think about it, impassable terrain informs just about everything you do. I don't think most flatlanders ever really internalize this.

I-5 in Seattle is in a really stupid spot for a modern city, stretching it out like a noodle. But where else were you going to put it? Water on both sides and hilly terrain everywhere in between. Parts of it - miles of it really - are built into a hillside because in some places there's nowhere else and in others there's a narrows where it can cross water.
This is not about what github collect about its own usage, it was about other people mirroring your commits on github and the fact that those commits contains PIIs.

How to design a sailing ship for the 21st century?
Blink is a terminal emulator and shell with a command line style interface (vs pointy clicky gui). It has numerous commands built-in that the shell can execute. If you are familiar with busybox then it is very much like that.

The most useful is ssh, which works as you expect (blink has code to manage keys etc). But iOS/iPadOS also terminates non-foreground apps. For example you could switch from blink to a massive web page in your browser, and then switch back again and blink would be relaunched. mosh is a connection-less protocol (setup is done over ssh first though), so you can keep sessions going across blink being killed and restarted, and even if you change IP address! I personally use tmux so this doesn't matter.

The shell commands are useful too. For example you can access iCloud files (available on every device) and local iOS files. You can do network diagnostics (ping, dig, nc etc). You can scp/sftp files back and forth. And then you can operate on them using sed/awk/grep etc.

It is quite challenging to explain all this, as you noticed at the web site. An example of a more GUI style ssh client is https://www.panic.com/prompt/ and they deal with keeping connections described here https://library.panic.com/general/ios-background/

There is a general command line with multiple commands built in at https://libterm.app/ and Blink is built on that. Note that you can even do things like compile code with clang, but the resulting "executables" are interpreted and not native code (again due to iOS policies).

Another alternative is https://ish.app/ which runs Alpine Linux userspace and interprets x86 instructions.

In short an iOS/iPadOS ssh client is more complicated than you'd expect, and they all have varying degrees of workarounds for app permissions, termination, maintaining connections in the background, etc. The blink site tells you more about one of those solutions (mosh) than describing the problem it addresses in the first place.

Too late all gone
Unfortunately it’s not helpful to your situation, but these issues are handled much better in many countries. For example, in Netherlands there are statutory holidays (20 or so?) then many companies give additional days on top of that. 28+ isn’t uncommon.

Being absent due to illness has no bearing on holidays either…even if you’re sick in one of your holidays it doesn’t count against your holiday time. There’s no concept of a fixed number of sick days.

Not many, but that just reveals a more painful truth - how much time do people have to invest in using apps?

The answer is not much, that’s the real bottleneck. You can’t expect people to pay for what they can’t use, and we just can’t use all that much software because we don’t have time for it.

If a coach fields a football team that's made up exclusively of quarterbacks, who's fault is that?

A team that can execute flawlessly, but has no vision and no solid ideas is not useful. A team that can come up with a million 'good' ideas, but has no ability to execute is just as bad.

Ultimately, your org needs to be built of the right balance of both sets of skills.

Yes, the primary argument is that without such high CEO pay, companies would perform materially worse due to the consequences of poorer CEO decision making. You seem to be pointing out that the gap between CEO and average employee pay is increasing, which while true, doesn't seem to address the primary argument. In fact, it may be true that, on average, employee pay will decrease by lowering CEO pay (if, in fact, it's true that overall company performance suffers as a result).

It's hard to find supporting evidence for or against the primary argument because you can't split test a CEO, but there are definitely examples of almost identical businesses, where one succeeded and the other failed purely due to execution. And, one can make an argument that the difference in execution is largely due to the CEO. One such example is Blue Apron vs Hello Fresh.
