> Just open youtube.com in a private window and you'll understand.

I often don't notice I've been logged out of my Google account until I visit YouTube. It's a bit frightening how dumbed down and scammy the content they recommend by default is.
The UK requires 'substantial' new evidence to re-try a case.

So far, it seems that hasn't been widely abused in the way you suggest. A court is the one who decides if new evidence is substantial or not - simple things like 'we found 11 of his footprints in the snow, but a re-re-review of the photos actually finds 12!" wouldn't cut it...
I think a factor is overestimating just how many people 'get into' YouTube culture. Only roughly 74% of American Adults use YouTube[0], and the average daily watch time is only 42 minutes[1], not much time to explore and watch videos outside of your own interests. Vsauce's videos are great (including the recent ones), but they're mostly a remnant of YouTube culture past, and 10-20 million views a video[2] is not a lot in the grand scheme of YouTube's 2 billion strong user base[3].

The things new iPhones do with software and camera is both absolutely revolutionary and completely unheard of in the world of big cameras.

I don't think they believe that so much they believe they can skim off the top of certain areas of commerce on iOS. If they did it with bank transactions, Apple Pay, Venmo, Robinhood, etc then people would be up in arms.
Would you be able to give a bit of context for the limitations of the new syntax that you’re pointing out? Could they be overcome (and if so why did it ship like this) or are they inevitable?

OP here. It took me a while to edit down the original author's wit into something that would fit in the HN title box.

Apologies to those who this confused - IMO that humor was one of the best features of the commit message.

It feels somewhat unfortunate that the post title has been changed and is now just bland and boring.
Thank you! For some reason, search engines still point to the outdated url.
Mechanics can get a slightly biased view on things - for example, they’re more likely to like less reliable vehicle that’s dead simple to work on compared to a more reliable vehicle that’s harder to repair (or they rarely see).
This is why Apple holds back important APIs from their browser, years after they are available in other browsers: fast 3D graphics, offline storage and compute, push notifications, to name a few.
> and shouldn’t ruin people’s lives if they are innocent.

Yes. The searches are not designed to ruin anyone's life but informing other parties, like what happened in this article, is sometimes necessary and and can have life ruining consequences even when entirely innocent. Things could leak out from the school to parents, to other work colleagues, limit career progression, etc. These leaks may even be intentional when stupid people are involved. Doing the searches quicker and being innocent or not doesn't help avoid either of the below (from the article) from happening:

> The police needed to unlock Matthew's work laptop, which was encrypted. He had to tell his boss about the case in order to get the decryption key.

> And the police had also informed social services and the children's school about the investigation, meaning Kate was suspended from her role as a governor there.

The first one could be unavoidable. The second one is technically avoidable but it is going to happen (in UK society, at least).
It has to be done because of anti-discrimination laws.

Refuse to rent to someone who you met in person and is an obvious meth head who will totally trash the apartment they second they acquire it; who obviously has no job and will never pay rent? Well you "must" have learned of some protected characteristic too and therefore you just discriminated against them.

Refuse to rent to someone because "computer says no"? You're fine.
To be fair, I think vsauce is one of the 'old guard' (heh, being like 5-10 years old as a channel gets you there).

Those channels are loved/hated (or at least known) by most of us who were on YouTube in earlier years (2010s), but YouTube has grown and grown, and even the most popular channels like Mr. Beast and Pewdiepie are unknown to many.

Take my wife; she watches her subset of videos, YouTube promotes similar videos, and she'll never hear of any of the 'pop' YouTube channels unless she accidentally goes to the trending page.

I think it stands for _resource description framework_, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Description_Framework
Trabant motor is a 2-stroke engine. Oil is mixed with the fuel on the tank and the fuel tank is positioned above the engine so they flow through gravity. This means only a single filter for fuel and oil is used and no need for fuel or oil pump. A very durable configuration. They are also very easy to repair. These features made Trabant such a durable car that owners eventually abandoned them in working condition instead of selling or scraping.

It could be even more durable if the engine was a 2-stroke valve-less design. But I don't know of any car that used such engine.
It arrived yesterday. Seems pretty good.
> why would you take a picture with location data and upload it to facebook

You could argue that most people don't know the location data is there. But at the same time, if you're doing something you want to keep secret, you probably shouldn't be uploading pictures of it to Facebook anyway.
I agree about UIs being a limiting factor. A great example is the ADSR envelope. Many sonic variations are reached through e.g. replacing the exponential curve. And of course some synths do this, but the UIs are not standard and require numerous additional controls.

Perhaps the next generation will group more variations under standard names rather than offer orthogonal access to every mathematical element. To an extent this is what sound modules do versus analog modulars... but sound modules overshoot by providing very high level sounds difficult to modify...

https://gist.github.com/BlackLotus/164cbdd2352adc6c67d807a13...

Tried getting it to work with lutro (the libretro love implementation), but didn't get too far (am too lazy). But if someone gets it working with lutro you can play it on nearly any platform (every platform with retroarch and lutro so nearly every 32/64bit platform you can imagine)
I get your point, but even your car mechanic would be able to tell if a component they worked with previously has changed only to make it more difficult to replace. You might argue "how do you know that was the only reason" - well, Rossman has a video on a USB-C charging controller embedded into the macbooks, previously if that burnt out(and they do burn out) he could just buy the chip itself online for a dollar. But after one iteration of macbooks, apple replaced it with identical chip with a changed pin layout and model number incremented by one - and they have secured exclusive production of this chip, so you can't buy this for a dollar any more. There is no hidden design reason here - it was clearly changed to stop people like him from repairing macbooks, because their specific chip revision is not available on the open market.
Also one key thing is that Flipkart only saw eBay as a threat that could be bought by competition and eBay was a known brand and nearly every online person in India knew about it.

Just to remove this possibility of being used as a weapon in competition's hand, they killed it.

They certainly didn't understand the whole use case of eBay like website but killed it because it was possible to use it for competition in consumer goods space considering it had many things that were being sold on Flipkart too
It seems we need something that is difficult/expensive to create, but which does not permit anybody to trace the owner.

We either need something provided by the government that is unique to each recipient and services tuple (so it can't be used to trace anything), but will be the same each time, and so can be banned.

Else we need something like a proof of work, but that would either have to so expensive to create that we would have to reuse it across all the end points.

I guess we could also mandate ipv6, but then blocking the addresses wouldn't be very useful.

Finally I guess we could mandate that all IPs be treated equally and then companies that can't handle that would have to close down.
In a more general sense, this idea is called technological determinism. But Moore's law is only one axis; a new technology isn't necessarily computationally more expensive or dense, and "old-school" isn't necessarily the opposite of "computationally intensive" or anything related to Moore's law. To me it's kind of like expecting cultural reversion because wheels aren't getting any bigger.

If the product isn't Fulfilled By Amazon (FBA), there is probably no way to know if it is drop shipped or not. Some of them state the country it will be shipped from, but I'm not sure that is a requirement, and it could still be drop shipped from inside the country.

How so? What's practically missing?
Start of my career, 20 years ago, I started a new position at 30k, over 2 years ended up saving company several hundred thousand if not millions per year thanks to all the automation I put in place.
several million to tens of millions in new sales as well.
I was given what was considered a massive and absurd raise to 50k. Which my boss had to fight hard for.

Hung out another year, then left due to low wages.
my opinion is that device makers should be allowed to make things unrepairable in design, but not in post-sale scarcity. The new macbook airs probably could have been just a tad thicker if they included modular ram and a m.2 ssd, but some consumers (and reviewers) really do like to chase thinness and will chastise Apple to continue to try to make their products as thin as a sheet of paper.

As HN: What efforts are currently being made to overcome racial biases in AI?
I've read a lot about racially biassed AIs recently. Eg the depixelizer that turns Obama white:

https://www.theverge.com/21298762/face-depixelizer-ai-machine-learning-tool-pulse-stylegan-obama-bias

Face detection also works better on white faces.

What work is currently being done to overcome this, if any?

Is this a problem with dataset availability? And if so are there any ongoing efforts to create more diverse datasets?

Would creating a way to crowd source datasets work / be useful to anyone - eg if you could submit images/speech/video of yourself and label them?

Thanks
And for how long would Safari on iOS keep up with new features or not get its performance nuked if for example games started to move into browser apps in major numbers on iOS. Apple itself said in the trial that games pretty much subsidize all other apps in terms of the money Apple makes out of the App Store.

iOS Safari already lags behind in features. Apple would just make it even worse if it started to cost them significant amount of money to have a truly great web browser.
Divide and conquer. It's gaming and software apps now. It'll be bank transactions and commerce later on.

A 1% "Apple Platform Safety Fee" on Robinhood wouldn't surprise me....
I don’t know the legalities, but I think Apple should be free to set their App Store policies but allow alternative app stores to be installed (with some hoops to jump through so that it isn’t too easy for the tech-blind to do).
I don't know if you're serious, but the `xBestIndex` function is supposed to be a literal description of the size & efficiency of the various tables. Lets say you have four tables: A,B,C are indexed (log access); table D is linear scan. Then, the `xBestIndex` function should return log(num-rows(X)) for A, B, and C; it should return num-rows(X) for D.

The issue is that SQLite considers the entire table when doing query plans, rather than the specific query that's about to be performed; this means if D is especially short, then it'll choose D as the "driver" table, and then linearly scan A, B, and C. This is not the behavior is uses for its own internal tables. Instead, internal tables are log-scanned based off the "best" table.

I suppose, what I'd really like is a strong guarantee that the plans SQLite compiled always used the index. I understand that there's N! possible plan orders for a join, so we can't consider all orders, but whatever mechanism is exposed through `xBestIndex` is just bonkers bad.

I think he just understood how YouTube and social media works. New content is more rant and less repair. Anyone can enjoy a good rant troubleshooting motherboards and soldering components is less accessible.

Makes me think of Thunderf00t. This guy is a massive troll with, from time to time, great scientific content. He has a lot of followers just here to enjoy the trolling, as evidenced by the fact he is never questioned by his fans even though it is what his channel is supposed to teach.

Apparently, yes, it is a problem.
Yes. Fortnite isn't on the play store.
It’s a shame to see this downvoted because even if it’s against what many people believe (we all have “hero’s” and “villains” I suppose, and our hero’s do no wrong) it’s something I also see.

I used to watch a lot of Rossman and glossed over his Apple hate because ultimately Apple are putting him and people like him out of a job, so it’s fair to be salty.

But a large portion of his content (a few years ago at least) is just hour long rants which are unsubstantiated opinion, he does not see nuance or doesn’t want to try steel-manning the things he disagrees with. Which is something Linus Sebastian is incredibly good at.

It does come off almost narcissistic at times, to me at least.

But at the end of the day explaining how computers are constructed is great content.
Yes, HK movies were a thing when HK wasn't China. But that fact doesn't help your case.

The main issue here is China - and Hong Kong in it - is ran by communists. Sure, they just need a bit more money, that's all! Can't wait to learn more about socialist values!

Not making your servers SSHable from the public Internet is absolutely worth it though, and has better simplicity than exposing them (which requires setting up firewall/NAT routes).

To be clear, we haven't been talking about the OP port-shuffling scheme for many posts now in this subthread. We're talking about not having your servers be externally SSHable, period.

What you're saying is that you're OK with basically every single developer declaring their app as free, and then asking for your credit card, which will be processed in god knows what ways with most of them.

So developers get in the shortterm to avoid the 30% cut. But what happens next?

The payment process becomes much more cumbersome and much less safe for users. So they start avoiding any payments on iPhone.

Apple loses basically all funding to maintain and curate the store.

And in the long-term developers lose the entire platform, because it's based on the goodwill of the users.

Who wins?
Cattle/livestock is also used for improving the quality/fertility of the soil for growing crops. It drastically reduces the need for harmful fertlizers, the need to till the land as much (reducing diesel usage) etc.. Also, the milk and meat is a nice bonus.

> I've never had a fake product

I've accidentally bought a fake board game. We didn't know until we reached out to the manufacturer because the cardboard cutouts for coins / tokens / markers were all offset randomly. On one sheet white, unprinted cardboard was visible when we punched them out.

When we contacted the manufacturer, they plainly knew it was a fake, said we should return it to Amazon, and we did so. When we bought another from elsewhere, we did a side-by-side comparison before sending the fake back:

1. The box was slightly different in size. Not enough that you'd notice, but the box top on the fake was just a little harder to remove.

2. the token/marker printing was of poor quality. It was like they'd taken the misprints from a real run and were selling those.

3. The instruction manual was printed on different paper. It felt real enough, but was obviously different from the "real" one.

4. Some extra flyers and adverts were missing from the box vs the real one
Unfortunately they have opened the gates to 3rd party sellers, which I think is the source of most of amazon.com's problems.

You’re probably massively overestimating how relevant YouTube is for most people.
I lived in Germany when the wall came down. For a while after this, it was common to see Trabant debris on the side of the autobahn. The Trabant had a very low top speed, and the East German drivers weren't aware of the fast-lane etiquette on the autobahn, so they would get rear-ended quite often.

"According to the Federal Motor Transport Authority, around 34,500 Trabants were registered in Germany at the beginning of 2019."

That's surprising to me, as I recall the TÜV vehicle inspection requirements were pretty strict. I guess they have some kind of exemption for hobbyist/antique vehicles?
Yes, exactly that - go on strike.

And the position is just like employees - one leaves, and mgt says "so what"? Many leave and mgt is screwed.

Maybe developers could even create a fund to help themselves survive a 'strike', and/or to help fund alternatives such as versions on Android.

Enough leave en masse, and Apple will have no choice but to listen.

Until then, Apple divides & conquers.

>IncludeOS is an operating system written as a library. When building an application, the build system includes the code that would typically reside in your operating system into the application itself. When it is done building a bootloader is added. So, after a successful build, you now have a standalone application that boots without an operating system. The application is now capable of driving the hardware, it has an IP stack and manages its memory.

>Unlike more traditional operating systems IncludeOS is meant for single task computers. There is only a single application running. For multiple security domains, we require multiple machines, and we leave the separation task to the hypervisor.

They could have just called it Cloud-DOS.

That's true, but functionality-wise, they can do much fewer things.

With an application load balancer, you can set up multiple backends, do basic redirections, do OIDC authentication, etc.

With a network load balancer, you can only spread TCP and / or UDP connections.
> I agree in principle to "right to repair", but Rossman's motives are purely financial and self promoting.

It’s pretty clear he had built a business on repairing electronics. But that doesn’t invalidate his points. If you own something, you should be able to get it repaired to a reasonable degree. Apple goes out of their way to frustrate even consumables like batteries from being swapped, and I say that as someone that still uses apple products.

For him, it makes sense hes more passionate than most, not only is it a passion for him to do this type of work (repairing electronics, not youtubing) but its also his livelyhood, so it makes sense that he would call out companies that make design changes that serve little other purpose than to frustrate repairs and decrease longevity to bolster their sales (and increase e-waste in the process)

> I've watched over 100 hours of his content and realized that his audience is primarily made up of anti-apple PC Master Race fanatics that just want to hear Louis troll apple for an hour.

Gonna disagree. Regardless of the type of people attracted to his content. It doesn’t invalidate the points he makes there. I don't watch his stuff religiously, and probably haven't viewed as much as you purport to have, but he has a clear schtick (which is basically mandatory for youtubers) but is definitely less negative than many I have seen. The good seems to outweigh the bad.

The article starts out saying this was a way for him to vent in a healthy and cathartic way, as a direct substitute to therapy. And it seems to work for him and he has said it before and it shows in the stuff he posts. I wont judge him solely on that just as I wouldn't judge other others who prefer something different, like fishing or hunting and escaping people (myself), or hobbies like music (also myself) or maintaining a garden or yard to work out frustrations. Some even go on the internet to criticize others I guess.

What other YouTube channels are showing people to cleanup or swap individual chips, or what part of a board does what? [1][2] I haven’t seen one that compares. It’s pretty neat and a display of a skill set definately don't posses. Even though I work with tech on a daily basis in my own right.
