allowing sideloading instantly shreds user privacy because any sufficiently-large customer (f.ex facebook) will immediately demand their app be sideloaded to bypass app review, and given full permissions so they can scrape everything. Facebook for example has already gotten their hand slapped for doing exactly this using their developer credentials, and if it suddenly becomes viable to do this for the full user-base then it will happen immediately and without any recourse by users.

https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2019/01/facebook-and-google-...

that is the true red-line from a user perspective. go on and have your spat about whether 30% is fair or not, but the app-review process is the keystone on which the permissions system rests, allowing sideloading is tantamount to allowing all major apps full-permissions overnight and essentially making the permissions system meaningless.

the only viable solution I can see that allows third-party app stores would be to require that Apple still review all apps on third-party app stores to enforce the requirements surrounding permissioning (i.e. having a valid reason to request the permissions you're requesting) and they would still need to charge for that.

"third party app stores without any review, but Apple still gets a cut" would be the worst of all possible outcomes.
I think the implicit criticism is that it is not suited for similar real life problems, because you never know if you have some problem for which it is well suited or some nearby problem for which it's not until after the fact.

This is surely true, but I think as criticism it misses the mark because nobody seeing a problem of similar complexity to GoL should say "I know! Let's write a one-liner in APL!" The fact that it's possible at all is what is impressive.

It's a little like if someone wrote a post criticising Ruby on Rails by writing a game engine in it, and then pointing out that it's slow.
The main annoyance is that the dictionary is directly inline in your main json config file. It's around 50% of mine right now. I wish there was a way to refer to an external file.

A bunch of this seems newly interesting given machine and deep learning advances: if it's 80-90% the brain filling in for actual physical nerve response to create perception, perhaps a lot of compute can get us much of the way there.

That's exactly what I did for my first benchtop supply. Being a student, 'free' was a pretty good deal. Used it regularly for a good many years until one project I had drew so much current it really accentuated the voltage ripple.
It's funny to hear that the bug increases are an effect of Intel trying to compete with ARM SoCs in mobile devices, because the errata those have are much worse --- and indeed a lot of embedded stuff is like that because the general line of thought there is that bugs are worked around in software and there's little expectation of being able to run existing code flawlessly, unlike with a PC.

I literally gave a real world example: Curve.fi that's used to swap between stablecoins. You can literally go right now to swap between tokenized USD and EURO.

Or you can go to the bank and pay their exchange rate. Maybe they'll ask you for your ID too.

Another example of the second kind: www.Ape.tax, where anyone can deploy an investment strategy and beta users can try them out, and if they are successful, they can be integrated - voted on by a DAO - into Yearn.finance, the primary project with several billion $ in investment.

There are existing projects already using the situations I talked about. It's not theory. It's not idealized vision. It's happening right now.

Blockchain is moving so fast that Yearn.finance, the platform with billions in investment, wasn't even a thing a year ago.
IIRC, Corsair's AXi and HXi series power supplies -- basically, the really expensive ones! -- support PMBus (I2C).

As someone who isn’t familiar with this space - is the use of HAProxy as a self hosted DDOS defense a “supported” (prioritized?) use case? I found old blog posts on this application of HAProxy but wasn’t sure if new development tries to improve those capabilities or if it is more focused on load balancing or other applications.

China is the one pushing the "it came from an animal" theory, and always has been. But in the previous cases, they produced solid evidence of the animal where the crossover occurred.

Obviously it would be in their interest to do that again, but instead, they have been uncooperative to outsiders and have gagged insiders. IMO, this supports the lab leak version of events.
Thats not what happened. There was no piracy problem. Then the US toppled the government. Then there was a piracy problem. The US didnt intervene to stop a problem that didnt exist. I was responding to the claim that destabilizing the Somali government in 1993 was profitable to wealth Americans because shipping lanes are near Somalia.

The _actual_ irony here is that batteries are often not easily replaceable in lots of military equipment, and especially not always in weapons. It may require a very extensive tear down and replacement of entire sub assemblies to replace something as mundane as a coin cell battery. And don’t even start with thermal batteries…

My problem is I can only get the chips and schematics I need to effect the repair on the Chinese Internet

Exactly. And we need legislation to make it happen. In India, I remember someone started a multi-brand service centre for cars. The automobile industry ganged up on him and refused to supply original parts to him. He had to go to the courts, and the courts ruled for him and in favour of consumer rights and made it very clear that the automobile industry had to supply parts to any mechanic shop that asked for it.

We now need a similar legislation for every other industry too.
Hi Matt. Great question. Our users typically track <20 applications but often have submitted resumes to far more that they are not monitoring. It probably is not an effective strategy to dedicate a specific plan to every 100+ cold application you fill out, but keeping track of the macro picture is extremely valuable - where have I applied and when - and what does this tell me about how close I am to an offer. Applicants using Kiter can move beyond relying on gmail search to understand where they are in their timeline.

You mentioned new grads and that demographic is a big portion of our user base so far. That being said, in todays remote world, almost any talented potential applicant is probably monitoring a few opportunities, even if they are happy in their current role. The plugin (v1) will be a way for someone to capture down a role/company they might find on HN or twitter but are not ready to spend time applying for yet. I hope this is helpful.
If a government cares enough to deploy fighter jets to hijack a plane like this in violation of every international norm, you can be sure it has the resources to know where you are at all times regardless of how tightly those databases are locked down.

Edit: for improved discourse as pointed out
Some early feedback:

I use uBlock origin to block all external scripts and then the page is just white until I disable it, not a nice experience.

I tried to add my first Application and I'm getting: "Sorry, we ran into a temporary bug and can't complete your request. We'll fix it as soon as we can; please try again in a bit!" I basically only put in "Qualcomm" as the company name then https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/2403729547/ as the link and "Deep Learning SW Engineer - Embedded-AI-Framework" as the position, nothing more. I created a user with a email address, nothing more.
I guess whether people are laid off or just looking for new opportunities, it may not be easy to keep all the resumes, responses, contacts and interview results together, also maybe they already applied for this position? to this company? If so, when and why didn't they still have an offer from them? If they rejected, for what reason? what about reference contacts? test assignments?

so an online service for keeping all information about their job search process may be helpful.
That seems like a basic consumer protection issue that's mostly already solved in the developed world. When I get my car serviced, it's understood that I will hold the mechanic responsible for everything so they don't even bother trying to put sketchy parts in my car.
> monads allow you to maintain a pure language while performing IO

I/O is by definition not pure, but the use of monads allow a strict separation between the pure and impure parts of the code. I guess you can say that monads allow you to have a guaranteed pure sublanguage.
> One of the arguments that used to be made about being gay is that it's not a choice. I never found this a convincing argument. In my view, I don't care whether it's a choice or not. It's still your choice to make. So I think I was progressive even back then.

People telling me that its a choice - even in an an affirming way still makes me all but violently angry to be very honest - because it presumes that I would chose to be a victim - which runs head long into my own ideological views. Being a victim is something that is generally outside if your control, and not something you'd willingly choose.

> But now it's changed. It's no longer about not caring but, rather, people like me should care, for some reason. I get that if this was a human rights or civil liberties issue, but it's not. We're past that. So why, then, is "gay pride" a thing, if not to push what should be a private issue into people's faces? Why is it in the workplace? You don't have sex at work so why do I need to know that you're gay? How does that help achieve our goals?

Another thing I'd note - I should have the same right to talk about my personal life as everyone else does - straight folks talk about their wives, girlfriends, husbands and boyfriend - I ought to be able to do the same. I shouldnt need to leave a whole sector of my life out to deal with someone else's sensibilities.

> Not caring is now demonised. The goal posts just keep moving. If there were concrete issues that haven't been considered then I'm all ears. But I really don't hear them. It's just "you must acknowledge that I'm different!" while I just keep saying "I don't care!" like I always have done.

There is a difference here - I agree with you that the goalpost has moved, but not where the goalpost moved to - it's not just acknowledgement, I'd argue that its moved to celebrate.

I moved my mailing list (all explicit subscribes, plaintext content) from Mailchimp to an SES-based solution in part for better handling of plaintext email, which is a total afterthought for most of these tools. Since the switch I have experienced minor hard rejection problems with SES that I didn't before, primarily with Apple Mail and rarely with gmail as well. I wouldn't say it's been a huge problem for me, in part because I don't care that much, but as far as I can tell Apple Mail was rejecting 100% of what I sent for a while while gmail just sporadically randomly rejects an email from time to time, not even the same email across multiple recipients.

At $0.05 per gb transfer, it would be half a penny per 100mb app download. Someone has to pay for that - at the moment Apple subsidises the free apps, presumably because they think they are good for the ecosystem.

Although lets be honest here, free apps could easily continue to be subsidised by Apple in any future model. We are talking about far less than a dollar per iPhone in terms of hosting/bandwidth costs for all the apps, so this really is something that Apple could easily just swallow.

Let's not forget that the availability, quality and abundance of apps, made by developers, is a key driver of success of the iPhone, and Apple makes plenty money from hardware sales. I won't lose sleep over the thought that they might have to pay for some hosting.
We are too woke.

Nevertheless, in some places in the world it is a mandatory standard to dub and it is a costly process distributors must handle to enter the market. I imagine VOD’s could also be interested in this as they have large libraries. Optimizing dubbing for them can really shift the proportion of localized content which can be useful when seeking regulatory approval and what not. I
There are also probably many other applications for something like this, albeit I’m with you that dubbing is super lame.
> to deploy fighter jets to hijack a plane like this in violation of every international norm

it is pretty standard practice in case of a bomb threat around the world as no one knows where the bomber(s) would force the plane to fly to :

https://abcnews.go.com/US/16s-scrambled-escort-jets-bomb-thr...

"An apparent bomb threat against two passenger flights that was tweeted today resulted in two F-16 fighter jets being scrambled to escort the two airliners.

The two flights were both enroute to Hartsfeld-Jackson International Airport in Atlanta, where they landed safely NORAD said."
I am pretty sure M.2 uses 3.3V exclusively, and depending on the implementation, RAM sometimes gets its power from down regulated 3.3V as well.

Though you do have a good point, nobody misses -12V and -5V.
Looks cool to me. I don’t speak these other languages, but I like the way the actors’ facial expressions are maintained through the dub.

I wonder how longer or shorter phrasing would affect clips or cut length and how backgrounds might also have to accommodate script line length.

This last year’s best picture went to Parasite, a “foreign” film with English subtitles.

While film people would probably always prefer the original, I bet most Americans would have watched Parasite dubbed with this technology and not even realized the actors didn’t use English in the creation.

Hollywood does butts-in-seats and I think this would put more butts in seats.
You gave a hypothetical example, not something you use. And to answer your question in your original post - no, blockchain would not be more convenient than using my traditional bank. I can do it entirely on my phone inside an app. And every time I've compared it's significantly cheaper not to use blockchain to send someone actual money.

You're giving me possible applications, not talking about you being an actual user. There are products for lots of things, that doesn't mean they have enough people using them that they're going to last.

> Blockchain is moving so fast that Yearn.finance, the platform with billions in investment, wasn't even a thing a year ago.

You're talking about something I've never heard of before as proof of blockchain having made it. We are on different planes here and I don't see us getting through to each other.

Anyway, agree to disagree. Cheers.

> the UI here is a little obscure

The '?' button explains a bit, and the keyboard shortcut dropdown next to it. Basically its a DAG editor. All actions are done by either keyboard shortcuts (add node, delete etc) or by clicking on the dedicated buttons in the toolbar. Thats why there isnt much to the UI -- you're supposed to do everything through your keyboard. I should probably add some more UI affordances though, like little '+' signs on nodes to add, etc.

The main difference to other flowchart editors is that it uses a 2D table, kind of like a spreadsheet, to layout the nodes. This gives you different editing abilities like multi-select, delete, navigate, etc which are more cumbersome w/ a boxes and arrows type flowchart editor.

> I use Mermaid syntax
I do as well, but I made this to have a flowchart editor not based on code. I added an export to mermaid feature just because its a common way for engineers to share the diagrams.

I'll work on making the UI more intuitive, thank you for the feedback.
Microsoft is a signatory to this suit and yet is explicitly arguing that they shouldn't have to open up their devices.

It's a suit of convenience for everyone involved, nobody is making a principled stand for user freedoms here, they just want to pry open Apple's bank vault, and they don't care if user privacy (permissioning/app review, etc) gets shredded in the process.

That the software freedom argument just happens to resonate with a lot of people who will sympathetically argue along with Microsoft and others as they continue to deny user freedoms is merely a bonus.

Absolutely agree, but that’s a whole new can of worms and outside the point I was making (which was that it is not obvious that they made this change for the SOLE purpose of preventing repairs). Do we force them to sell the M1 module as well? Individual chips from that module? I’m all for that, personally, but good luck getting that passed. And assuming we can’t make them do that, what is the line between those parts and the less special ones like this one?
