Whataboutism, also known as whataboutery, is a variant of the tu quoque logical fallacy that attempts to discredit an opponent's position by charging them with hypocrisy without directly refuting or disproving their argument.

If Japanese companies stole the source code, then why was BS2000 developed by Siemens (a German company) from 1970 on [1], with Siemens-Fujitsu taking only over in 2000, 11 years after the date in your link?

And yes, the BS2000 uses the /360 ISA, but so did a few other imitators of IBM. And copying an ISA is widespread, and not restricted to the /360.

I’ve noticed that Cyber Security at a lot of companies are still stuck in the sys admin days of yore. They continue to hold on the antiquated tooling that doesn’t scale or actually detect most issues. And the idea of learning or expanding into security automation beyond their toolset is frowned upon by a not significant number of member of the community doing the day to day work. This creates an atmosphere where they SecOps teams can’t articulate the positives they are bringing to the organization. And thus the market doesn’t pay them their worth.

Compare this to DevOps where the sale has been done well and the business is convinced that these highly paid automation engineers will help the business to improve and speed up software delivery providing more income to the company.

Until security is able to properly articulate how they are helping and improving the business, not just getting in everybody’s way. The field is going to struggle to raise salaries to comparable levels as these other disciplines.
But it can sometimes be true in the sense that if you do not support X, you are willing to let Y happen. Things like climate change, mask wearing and stuff.

You can hate that argument, people can still accuse you of it and they might be right.
I certainly denounced it, but also keep in mind that the president's plane was not "downed" in nearly the same fashion. Nobody forced the plane to land in any particular spot, and (if you believe Morales) no one searched the plane.
Ever since I had discovered shadertoy I've been searching for a consolidated source like this. I have a decent graphics background after taking a handful undergrad courses, but most of the producers on shadertoy just seem like magicians comparatively. Very excited to check this out!
That’s exactly what whataboutism is for. Accusing someone of being a hypocrite without addressing the actual point at all.

Edit: and with zero evidence that they might even be a hypocrite in the first place...
The two actions people can take are:
1. Delete Facebook apps, Whatsapp and IG. This can have low to high utility loss for you, but has negligible effect on Facebook. It would have a bad effect for me, who has many family members and friends connected on whatsapp and needs whatsapp to connect to anyone whom I meet in my country.

2. Lead a movement to switch away from these apps. This has an insanely high overhead, and requires significant organisation of people and a large individual commitment. This would have a significant effect on Facebook.

This is how I view the problem. This is not an example of people being unwilling to act on their ideals. It's a situation where acting on their ideals would cause them a significant burden with no effect, and causing the intended change would require ridiculously large effort.
Honest question, is your goal to keep the morales incident out of this discussion? Is it not irrelevant?
Korean Air Lines Flight 007 (also known as KAL007 and KE007)[note 2] was a scheduled Korean Air Lines flight from New York City to Seoul via Anchorage, Alaska. On September 1, 1983, the South Korean airliner servicing the flight was shot down by a Soviet Su-15 interceptor. The Boeing 747 airliner was en route from Anchorage to Seoul, but due to a navigational mistake made by the KAL crew the airliner deviated from its original planned route and flew through Soviet prohibited airspace about the time of a U.S. aerial reconnaissance mission. The Soviet Air Forces treated the unidentified aircraft as an intruding U.S. spy plane, and destroyed it with air-to-air missiles, after firing warning shots which were likely not seen by the KAL pilots.[2] The Korean airliner eventually crashed in the sea near Moneron Island west of Sakhalin in the Sea of Japan. All 269 passengers and crew aboard were killed, including Larry McDonald, a United States Representative from Georgia. The Soviets found the wreckage under the sea on September 15, and found the flight recorders in October, but this information was kept secret until 1993.

This is exactly it, the thermal ceiling leaves almost no room to use the full 45 watt TDP. The fact that this problem isn’t a huge PR nightmare shows just how “pro” the typical buyer’s workload is.
I never understood why eBay didn't resell shipping to their sellers. They could have gotten very favorable rates from the carriers with that kind of leverage.
So let's be clear. The US didn't "down" anyone -- the US does not have jurisdiction over any of the airspace in question:

> The day after his TV interview, Morales's Dassault Falcon 900, carrying him back to Bolivia from Russia, took off from Vnukovo Airport, but was rerouted to Austria when France, Spain, Portugal and Italy[2] reportedly denied access to their airspace, allegedly due to suspicions that Snowden was on board.

I'm sure the US applied diplomatic pressure, but those countries are all developed, rich economies who were perfectly capable of saying no and preserving their sovereignty. It was done with full consent of the countries in question.

I loved coaching baseball for that age group. For our local rec league levels that is the first entry to kid-pitch.

It was really off-putting how outcome focused some of our other coaches were. I am a player development nerd (Driveline youth certified now - highly recommended - and love their philosophy shaped to rec players) and hated playing teams with coaches that tried to manipulate our player draft process to vacuum up all the better athletes. Those were the teams that would max out their two pitchers' pitch counts every game and cycle all the non-starters on their team through right field.

I moved onto softball coaching at our local middle school and enjoy player development and coaching at that level too. We lost this year to pandemic closures but I am looking forward to going full-on gamified tech next year (Blast sensors, pocket radar, lots of quick fun drills to keep things moving).

I deleted all social about 5 years ago I did notice a narrowing of my friend circle. However, I also noticed a net uptick in my own personal happiness. There will be tradeoffs that you have to consider and figure out what is best for you. I personally believe that social media in general is responsible for a lot of the problems in our society, so take my opinion with appropriate grains of salt.
The whole point of accounting is to force black and white distinctions, especially in ambiguous situations. But in fact there is no ambiguity about this. Owing someone money doesn't earn you money. Owning an asset that you may have acquired with a loan is what earns you money.
Very sad day for democracy.
> Belta, the state-owned news agency in Belarus, said Mr Lukashenko had personally given the order for the plane to land at Minsk following the bomb alert, and that a MiG-29 fighter jet had been despatched to accompany the Ryanair plane.

Interesting framing
> their executives genuinely believe that Apple is responsible for all commerce that happens on an iPhone

iPhones concentrate rich users who buy stuff. There’s nothing delusional about this. Likewise, Epic Game Store giving away games they paid huge advances for also makes those games more money than they ever would directly selling on Steam.
wooosh you moron
Even a lot of amateur workflows are difficult to impossible on the iPad. I'm an amateur photographer and after using the iPad Pro as my primary editing computer for months I gave up and went back to Windows. I wanted to make it work. I really did. The file system makes the workflow incredibly painful, my preferred RAW converter isn't available, and the Adobe apps that are available are sorely lacking compared to the desktop versions. I have a couple hundred dollars worth of Photoshop plug-ins and none of them work on the iPad. There isn't even a way to load plug-ins on iPad. I can't print at all (yes, some of us still like to print). Backups can't be automated. Internal storage is very limited and external drives are painful to use. There's simply no way to tell when the iPad is accessing the external drive or not. I have had to perform multiple filesystem repairs because of that.

The iPad has some definite advantages. Battery life is great, performance is great, the screen is amazing, but it's all severely crippled by the software. Until Apple makes the OS as powerful as MacOS there is no point at all in having so much power that you simply can't use.
The problem is that discovery is broken. This random post on HN led me to more subscribe worthy channels than months of looking at Youtube recommendations has.
That was a direct order from the self proclaimed president. The plane was 10 min away from Vilnius airport but the fighter jet was closer. Do you understand the difference? And btw there is a high chance the journalist will be executed.
Hi! Thanks for the nice words! :)
For now I am not limiting traffic etc because I'm still in the beginning so I'll see how it goes. I have a ton of bandwidth paid for with the servers so it will be mostly a matter of load on the servers in the end. But for now the Kubernetes cluster costs me just 70e/mo with quite a nice amount of reasources. It's cheap because I manage everything myself.
I can scale with one click, but if I find in the future that some user use a lot of resources then I will implement some limits and perhaps more plans. For now I want to keep it as simple as possible :)

Yikes.

Distilled into its abstract, you're saying his primary motivation isn't right to repair; it's to extract cash from his viewers.

I'm not a fan of hit jobs especially when presented as extensive prose to veil the attack. Please reconsider and assume the best intentions in people. Unfortunately, I can't assume the same of your comment because there was no reason for you to author it except a personal distaste for the human subject.
This is bull. Apple deserves a "rent", and not a "cut". They are providing infrastructure and services, and they deserve a minimum rent for these, which they already take.

But Apple should not take cut on every purchases made through the app. It makes no sense.

AWS does not take a "cut" on every Netflix subscription bought. They just charge for the storage and traffic. This is how App Store should function.

You cannot justify actions using other wrong actions.
As someone who was a mechanic, and later became an engineer, this is the main reason why I find Rossman's videos insufferable. He is constantly making assumptions about how electronics are designed based on his views as a repair man. As a mechanic I made the same assumptions, but I was later able to learn that every decision an engineer makes is one of compromise, based on hundreds of variables that the mechanic does not know about because of the narrow view that any technician has concerning the product that they are servicing: observing the hard shell of an egg and assuming that the contents must be equally hard.
You're holding their margin % equal, but cutting 30% off revenue probably won't cut 30% off their margin costs.

In reality it's too complicated to figure with a simple formula. But, he was right if margin is a fixed cost (like, all initial development). If margin is purely an incremental cost (like network costs that increase with each sale), then he would be wrong.
Personal attack, character assassination, apparently it's astroturfing (something something rape), another guy saying it's "NSA tactics". Amazing.

Pretty rabid fanbase. Anything other than adulation must have nefarious origins. It certainly can't be organic.

I think it was upvoted (after a lot of downvotes) because a lot of people have experienced the same thing. Rossmann started as a Mac/Apple repair guy elbowing to try to keep his business going, which no one can contest and was admirable and sympathetic. He had a credible argument about right to repair.

Somewhere along the way -- maybe after Apple had customs block some of his imports, or maybe after he started getting those fat YouTube checks -- he turned from an Apple repair guy to an anti-Apple advocate in virtually every dimension. He has a whole plethora of anti-Apple opinions, and he seems to be a cult of personality not for repair people, but rather for people who still harbor a grudge that their Lumia prophecies didn't come true.

So I just said what I thought, and clearly a lot of people have the same impression, which was that once I'd see his name and think credible repair arguments, and now I see his name and just click past because it's going to be some new anti-Apple screed appealing to a base. Eh.
Since I share at least 60% of the DNA with about anything I eat I don't worry too much about mixing one organism with another genetically bad things can happen mixing close relatives or distant ones and I am not sure one poses a higher risk than the other.
Analogy to drug safety makes no sense - FDA regulates drug safety and 'fake' generic drugs are very much allowed, so customers may choose generic drugs without needing to distinguish safe/unsafe themselves.
> But, keeping cultural contexts in mind, does the line exploit power imbalances in our society against white people to denigrate them? I think a lot of people would say no.

By this reasoning, minstrel shows are not racist, because the culture at the time did not see it that way.

You have to specifiy any app to access Photos. By default, that access of through a non-Photos app should strip any location data. If this is not true, then I feel less tin hatty about my decision to not allow any apps access. I also feel that copying a photo from Photos should also strip location data.
Even if there isn't an official program, contact them and ask. If you reach the right person there's a good chance they will do what they can to help you out.

I find it fascinating that Hollywood is doubling down on this type of writing after it's been shown to drive away audiences.
Lukashenko is showing he's willing to go to great lengths to silence opposition and free press completely in Belarus. Arresting opposition party leaders before elections for made-up accusations is par for the course in Belarus... but now he has been doing the same not only to his enemies, but to any newsagency that dares to as much as hint at criticizing his brutal regime, as he's just done with tut.by[1], the now former largest independent news portal in the country.

The EU has shown no determination to put a brake on Lukashenko's abuses and has been completely passive so far on the matter.

The USA, in my opinion, should show leadership and step in to make it clear that such affront against democracy on a neighbour of its closest allies will not be tolerated. Poland and Hungary (not to mention Turkey a bit further away) are already leaning dangerously close to the kinds of abuse of power only seen in dictatorships, and letting Belarus get away with this international provocation will just make it even more clear that the great powers don't care enough to defend democratic rights anywhere outside their own borders, and they are free to go ahead with their own crackdowns on freedom of expression and disregard of human rights.

Where are you getting your speculative estimates? I just googled it and see numbers about a tenth of what you’re suggesting for 1.5M subscribers. It doesn’t seem probable at all that his channel is more lucrative. I also don’t understand why you emphasized “revenue” for the repair business, when the YT income is also revenue, or how you know what his YT channel expenses are. Care to elaborate?
"There is a precedent and the precedent was followed" is the other sides argument.
This is just a random columnist's assertion that some young people with pretty insecure and controlling views of sex and relationships represent a trend or a "counter revolution". While I don't at all doubt that there are many people who hold these views, I'd refrain from calling it a trend until I see some solid evidence.
The point is about precedent.

Beside having your email, do they have your address or is that only amazon?

Else, and I know that its not worth your time, but couldn't you accept their request, change your review, receive the gift card, redeem it, and change review back with a short statement of what happened. I mean, as I understand it, what are they gonna do? (I they do have your address though, I would not play games either)
That's about the worst idea possible. Many people work in neighbouring countries and cross the border regularly to see their families.

Such a move would affect them the most.
They could keep flying and force Belarus to shoot down a civilian airliner.

You may not be making employment decisions based on the number of people you help, but projecting into other people that other don't either doesn't actually absolve you of the hurt you cause others. It may help you sleep at night but you're lying to yourself if you really believe that. Most jobs lie somewhere in the spectrum between school teacher vs murderer for hire/military and you have to determine where any given job sits along that spectrum, and where in that spectrum you're comfortable sitting. That the job's value to humanity is coming up means you understand it's questionable. DeFi circumvents money laundering laws, almost by design (if not by design, running proper KYC is simply extra expense that a businesses don't want to pay for), so the work literally helps fund terrorism (eg Iran, North Korea). You can disagree with the US government's stance on the matter, but don't pretend that enabling those regimes is the same as implementing ad tech at a FANG.

> Doing the searches quicker and being innocent or not doesn't help avoid either of the below [...]

It could definitely have avoided the second.

I think there is a moral duty to carry out investigations in a way that protects the lives, reputations and livelihoods of the innocent, and this example has fallen short of that in my opinion (although a reasonable person could disagree).
1) Since many of these algorithms need to run on standalone hardware devices, many are still limited in power by their chips (and the economics). Amount of voices, oversampling, amount of presets, sound banks, samples can increase the quality of many devices. And many purely pc based electronic compositions also run into CPU/RAM limitations. Perhaps with endless money you don't run into this too quickly, but allowing more "bedroom producers" more power will surely breed new musical ideas

2) in my opinions there it is hard to overstate how much new inspiration can come from work on new UX/workflow/control ideas. Many of which will come at a cost of more CPU as you move away from 1 to 1 mapping from the DSP algorithms.
This tact has been plied by a dozen different replies in a dozen different but similar ways (some talking about prose, while others claim it's incomprehensible).

Groan.

A large number of the replies I have gotten would normally be deleted by mods, for good reason. If you're rewording to conjure up flamebait or attacking by conspiracy because you don't like a position, better to not post it.

"you're saying his primary motivation isn't right to repair; it's to extract cash from his viewers."

Don't add your own pejorative narrative and then strike it down. It adds nothing to HN and is flamebait.

Rossmann took his right to repair advocacy and branched out into a personality engagement. For YouTube viewers who are into that, or people who sympathize with his other positions, good for you and good for him, but for the rest of us it's just noise. I no longer pay attention to what he says because his motives have been perverted.
Hypothetical progression:
Epic sets up alternative App Store which becomes the only source of Fortnite 2.0, which is popular enough to drive installs of new alt store. Some other newly-popular viral app comes along (probably a social app that causes its users to exert pressure on their social group to join) and gambles on going with the Epic store only, piggybacking on Fortnite’s beachhead. Repeat. This process normalizes an alt store, forcing iOS customers to have to choose between trusting a new source vs missing out on apps. They can currently miss out on Android-only apps, but at least currently 99.9% of apps that run on iOS come from the single “trusted” store.

Another maybe-more-realistic version of this would be if some business software used their power over line workers to install things (since end-users are not really the customers in corporate software sales). Microsoft sets up their own store as the only source of Office Redux, and millions of iOS users are forced into this store via their employers. Same process as above: beachhead, gamble, dilution of Apple’s store.

It’s not hard to see how the process could snowball, though it’s certainly not guaranteed as there must be the right combination of events.
Disproving an argument is not a prerequisite for exposing hypocrisy, these acts can be done separately. And if the other party doesn't address the accusation of hypocrisy there might not be a need for disproving the argument to them, as their position might be politically motivated and not aimed at resolving the issue in principle.
What knowledge and experience do you have of designing motherboards or other similarly complex PCBs?

Getting GHz frequency circuits to work requires much more than just understanding the digital interfaces.

If you think designing and laying out a modern motherboard is “easy”, then there’s a 1% chance that you’re a highly experienced and capable electronic engineer, and a 99% chance that you just have no idea about the existence of entire classes of problems that need to be solved to make a motherboard work.
