A couple of things I can think of: bars are a lot wider than they used to be which make it impractical add bar ends to, and bar ends increase the likelihood of hooking vegetation on a descent.

Not currently into mountain biking (I like the current structural integrity of my collarbones tyvm) - have ebikes revolutionized the sport? Seems like they'd increase accessibility by making the hard part (long arduous biking uphill to get to the drop) quite a bit more tolerable. Although as a hiker/climber I do appreciate that putting in real effort makes the payoff all the sweeter.

I wonder how it would feel to have every program dry-runnable but composable.. basically FP/virtual systems. You can (dry-run cmd-0) | (dry-run ...) | (dry-run cmd-n) and it will yield a potential system state.
Got a Trek Xcaliber 8 this year and the 1x drivetrain turned out to be like godsend. I can climb much better, not much hassle while cleaning/mantaining the bike and it's a little less weight from it.

If any, 1x drivetrains would de-emphasize going on flat terrain - sometimes you feel like that 30x11 ratio falls too short for a flat road.
There's something like that called the Aya Neo[0].

It runs Windows. It runs emulators. It's reasonably powerful and compact. And it has hardware buttons.

It's also a bit pricey if you think of it as a portable game device, and it also probably falls down a bit on battery life comparisons.

Would you want a gaming Surface to have two screens and touchscreen buttons, or hardware (perhaps as a Surface keyboard-like magnetic accessory)?

They're focused on making money and fuck all else.

Apple is the literal definition of "insane dark patterns" if you happen to be a developer.

Made a profitable app on the app store? Oh look! Apple used your market data to clone it, shoved their product to the top of the "marketplace" they happen to own, and now you have no business.

Want to improve your user experience by shipping a compliant browser rendering engine? Oh... we're so sorry, only Apple can "safely" let the user view the web, using safari, where they hoover up more data.

Want to debug on a variety of hardware/software combinations to better support users? Oh... sadly the licensing agreement forbids virtualization - Go spend 10k on physical devices.

Basically - Apple is a shit company that happens to have interests that are currently aligned with customer value (in some places). They will not remain that company.

Benevolent dictatorships are by far the best form of government you can get - as long as you're in the in group. The problem is you never stay there forever: Either you will change, or the company will change. See the turmoil happening now around Google products. See the backlash MS got in the 90/2000s.
Especially tiny, closely packed touchscreen buttons, on a screen you're not even looking at. Trying to hit the right button, with no tactile feedback, is not a recipe for success.
I know this is confusing, but gain of function genome alterations is one class of genetic engineering.

Other approaches involve literally trying to change the codon sequence in a supercomputer to see what happens in the folding and conformation changes, but it is very esoteric since bio is so complicated.
I thought the tray in the thumbnail was the solution. What about a padded tray with dimples in rows of 10?

How do you all write dry-run logic for utilities that perform file operations (edits, deletions, creations) and have some kind of sequential dependency in operations such that later steps depend on the previous steps having been executed?

I have found it a frustrating nut to crack because it seems like it needs to involve either writing a simulation layer that tracks the state of all the file calls virtually, or else copy all the files to a temp folder (so the dry run isn't dry, it's just on a separate version of the data). Both of these seem like bad solutions.
> Looks like all of the complains are basically "they're not where they was on Windows".

Well... yeah kinda but not only. Windows does some things better, and it seems like a good idea to copy good UX paradigms wherever they come from. Also for some of these your answere is "why do you want to do this?" or "use some obscure keyboard magic". I want to because I want to. Sometimes I'm in a folder and want to create a specific file because it fits my current workflow. I don't always do it, but sometimes I need to.

>Copy as regularly (Cmd-C), and use Option-Cmd-V to move the file where you want to.

I don't care, why is it not Cmd-X? Why do they break the universal standard with this?
I bought a Steelcase Think back in 2014 to match the same chair that our company provided for the office. It was a good deal, especially when I amortize the cost over the number of years that I have been sitting on it.

My first MTB had bar ends but I quickly ditched them after too many snags (uphill and downhill). Riding my 2021 MTB with modern geo and modern bars I'm noticing this same problem. However, the snagging is way more of an issue navigating tight corners and uphill switchbacks. End of the day I'm sure I'm still snagging at a rate on my modern bike as I was with my retro bike but just the sight of bar ends brings back some bad memories.
I've considered getting a larger Android tablet for the purpose of playing games on GamePass /xCloud with a paired xbox controller. It works quite well on my phone, but the screen is kind of small or my eyes are bad. The piece missing for me, currently, is the lack of vibration support. I did not appreciate how many tactile cues today's games have until it was missing.

For example, in Sea of Thieves, there is a "clunk" vibration when your ship's wheel is centered. It's very difficult to grab the wheel and straighten your heading without the clunk. Visually, the wheel had a center spoke which looks different than the rest, but the wheel rotates several times in a given direction before stopping.

If they ever add vibration support, I may purchase an Android tablet with a larger screen.
> Does humanity really want an authority powerful enough to claim dominion over the entire planet?

I believe the word you're looking for there is /did/ not /does/. And the answer is for some, yes, for some, no, but regardless -- it happened for a variety of structural reasons (British Empire, Mongol Empire, etc).

Perhaps a more interesting question is whether such a dominion will work for the future. And for that, I'm not so sure. What's to say that we won't see some kind of three body system between India, China and the West? Not to mention what could happen as South America and Africa continue to ascend. I think the logistics of collecting a 15% global tax will be "interesting" to watch play out.
My salary went up 60% by changing job twice.

The first place could have kept me by offering me fair market rate for the role I had.

The 2nd place couldn't have kept me with a bar of Gold every morning but it was a pay bump which levelled me into the salary I'm on now.

If your biggest issue is recruitment then it seems pretty obvious you pay your existing staff fair-market rate because replacing them is more expensive than just paying them (and because it's fair though fairness doesn't appear to a motivation).
Because of the blackmarket nature of the betting, which is illegal in many countries.

You need to add in the detours you'll need to make to find superchargers and 20 minutes is still much longer than you need to fill a gas tank.

Additionally, you're going to be charging more often than you'll be filling the tank in a similar sized vehicle.

If you're towing anything then EV is just out the window because they're not capable of towing anything for a long enough distance to be practical.

Really EV's only seem practical if you want to be environmentally friendly imo and even then there are more eco friendly ways to commute. I bike to work often so I feel like I offset my emissions just as much as anyone who's commuting with an EV.
My email address is valid and has been valid for a really long time.. but about 5% of ecommerce shops refuse to accept it.. so they don't get my money.

In conversations recently around technical hiring I've found a heavy emphasis on "AWS" knowledge rather than infrastructure know-how or proven experience building on top of any stack.

Sometimes, people don't even know what AWS is except that it is needed by their product. They need someone "strong in AWS." They don't know what AWS products they use or what they do.

Separately, I have had a very senior developer convey a sense of respect for candidates that know AWS things that this developer does not know. I was surprised that the developer would give a pass on any subject so easily.

There seems to be some sort of an implied belief in ability simply because the person can recite Amazon's branded solution names and have configured these things before. In part, because the interviewer doesn't know the buzzwords, they can't probe for the actual depth of experience.

It feels almost like a "no one ever got fired for buying IBM" situation. And on the candidate side a "can't beat em, join em" by being able to recite AWS jargon, regardless of how well you can build and choose solutions to fit business needs.
It’s interesting to see a multinational standard to set a “standard” for taxation.

Seems odd to start with corporate income taxes as it seems pretty efficient to not tax corporations and encourage more distribution to individuals and tax there.

I remember in my microeconomics101 course how taxes on corporate profit are easy to squish around with tax deductible benefits that reduce profit (eg, country club dues are an expense, corporate jets are an expense, 5000 square foot offices are an expense). Since it’s hard to police these expenses, it’s more efficient to just push all profits to salary and dividends to individuals and tax there since there are so many fewer individual exemptions.

Since you can search for products made in specific countries, wouldn't this have less of a racist appeal if it was called "Made Here" instead of "Not Made There"?

For example, I live in Canada and like to buy things made here. This site would be useful for that, regardless of my feelings about Chinese (or any other country's) products, government, etc.

Today, maybe, but in the late 90’s when bar ends were popular there was a huge shit from cross country to downhill. Thats when we say full suspension get popular, and ski hill lift assisted runs getting more common.

Now i see more people shifting back to cross country.

I'm a Mac user.

I'm re-reading my own comment as both replies to it seem to have taken the opposite point that I intended, but I can't see where I said the macOS behaviour is bad. I personally like it (though I wasn't saying that either).

My only point was that it being less intuitive for more techy users doesn't mean it's not generally very intuitive for the majority.
Tangentially related, I have another comment from a separate post observing some additional media (NYT specifically) sleight of hand WRT the Damore "memo":

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27254877

>> [Damore] argued that biological differences and not a lack of opportunity explained the shortage of women in upper-tier positions.

> This is an unfortunate way of characterizing Damore’s argument. It’s technically true in that Damore IIRC was arguing that there was more variation among men than women (more men at the top and at the bottom but fewer in the middle, but Google hires from the top hence more men). So yeah, technically biological differences, but when the average person hears that they’re going to assume he was arguing that women in general are dumber than men in general or some such. That said, this also represents much more earnest coverage of Damore considering the initial coverage overtly lied on many accounts (calling it an anti diversity screed, claiming he sent it as a memo to the company, etc).
I'm not sure the reasons you listed, "X during the review process and then doing Y when in use or obfuscating their use of private APIs", are the best match for blocking all arbitrary code execution. E.g., there's no reason an app can't simply compile multiple use cases into a single binary to get past review (in fact, this happens all the time). And, it's way too broad to be about blocking access to private APIs, e.g., they're blocking all running of Ruby, Python, Node, etc... with this rule.

I think the more specific match to what Apple is blocking with these rules is anything that resembles an App Store-like experience. Apple doesn't want anything that can download and run arbitrary apps, because that would dilute their platform control and other advantages. There's an excellent piece about why Apple is so afraid of this (https://stratechery.com/2013/why-doesnt-apple-enable-sustain...).

This motivation provides a more specific match to preventing arbitrary code execution: An App Store-like experience is almost impossible without downloading and executing code. It also matches the exception that Apple provides for "educational apps designed to teach, develop, or allow students to test executable code may, in limited circumstances, download code provided that such code is not used for other purposes" (https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#2.5...).

Furthermore, this perspective is support by other policies as well:

1. This is why Apple doesn't allow third-party web rendering engines on the App Store. A third-party web engine could also be used to create an App Store-like experience.

2. See 4.2.7 (https://developer.apple.com/app-store/review/guidelines/#4.2...), the rules around what remote desktop apps can do. These restrictions seem specifically written to prevent remote desktop features from being used to create an App Store-like experience.

So, while I think rule 2.4.2 does help with the goals you listed, if it were just about those goals, these rules would be written differently (e.g., allowing downloading and executing scripting languages). And I think there's more evidence that rule 2.4.2 is more about preventing third-parties from providing App Store-like experiences.
1) Main is a standing desk with a wobble board. The wobble board allows for constant micro-adjustments and also a few good 'steady' position for focusing

2) Ikea Nilserik wobble stool. This lets me "perch" in a semi standing position and, again, make lots of movement throughout the day. I also reposition myself on this regularly.

3) Kneeling chair

4) normal office chair for little breaks (30 minutes in the morning and 30 in the afternoon)

I would never go back to just sitting in a chair all day. I've never seen anyone who can maintain good posture for 8 hours a day. And even if you do, your still weakening your glutes and abs while tightening your hips and calves.

Drag and drop has steadily gotten harder to use over the years. I have no explanation for it, it's maddening.

Not cutting files is deliberate, I think. What should the OS do if you cut files, and then don't paste them and cut something else? Put them back, put them in the Trash?

A sibling comment pointed out that there's a magic incantation for "paste and delete", but clearly the Mac way to do it is drag and drop.

Which used to be dead easy, and now I'm lucky if I get it the first time.
Single front chainrings came about from having wider and wider ranges on the rear and suspension designs being made possible by ditching the front derailleur. Yes, there's some top end lost but the range is more the same than different than doubles or even triples.

As someone who has been mountain biking for over 25 years I would say the statement that uphill has been de-emphasized over downhill is absolutely correct. Enduro racing (where the uphills aren't even timed) is a nice example of that.
Breakbeats basically came about as a way to overcome the limits of early samplers. A competition to invent the spiciest Amen break slice.
"Clean up by" is still a manual thing you have to do regularly? My downloads folder looks like a mess because files constantly get added/deleted from it via the Dock.

On modern mountain bikes you want to be seated for climbs, thats why their geometry is so different from a bike made 10-15 years ago.

Also, first time you catch a bar end on a branch and get sent over the handle bars you will ditch them. (at least I did)

Because that's how many messages are required to solve for consensus given byzantine failures, at least with relatively simple algorithms like pratical byzantine fault tolerance (p-BFT).
The exact bound is O(m*N^2) for pBFT, where m is the number of rounds, at up to 1/3 of N. Blockchains use a different consensus mechanism, but the consensus mechanism is still incredible inefficient compared to something like 2PC which drives Paxos, and can make decisions in O(N) messages like you said.

This isn't a great article. It's more about the politics than the actual proposal.

Bloomberg has a better write up: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-04-08/plans-for...

To answer your question, this wouldn't create a new organization to collect a global tax. Instead it would give the IRS the authority to tax American companies (say, Google) an additional amount on their overseas earnings. So, if they paid 13% in Irish tax, but the American tax rate is %21, the IRS could charge them the gap (an additional 8%). This would be true in all countries that sign the agreement.

Obviously tax havens would still exist, but they'd be harder for big multinationals (like American tech giants) to abuse.
If you have a server creation cloud script, you could use an SSH CA to set up server authentication. It requires some extra work (namely finding a way to automatically sign a host key) but it does allow you to avoid TOFU for your entire team rather than just for yourself. Coupled with a second CA for authentication, SSH certificates can be a very powerful way to do SSH server management.

Sending emails or texts is easy, but checking them each time you log in from a new device is cumbersome. I'm too lazy to do the latter and prefer to put in work to set up my complex setup instead, but of course your mileage may vary.

the only possible thing I can think of that can explain this is that if you cut and then forget about the item, it just disappears eventually (reboot, copy other item, whatever).

that's one thing when it's copied text from some web page, but quite another when it's a file or folder.
Why would smaller countries who are looking for a competitive edge to attract business ever agree to this? It seems like this is really just in the interest of the US and other big incumbents that rely on large tax revenue already. But even within that group, enforcing such a minimum really has the effect of cementing the incumbents' hold on economic power. So why would any nations other than the US agree to this, when others stand to benefit by gaining economically at the cost of the US? Personally I also find the notion of a global order that prevents flight (of companies, capital, etc.) to be a bit dystopian. I don't want any power (a nation, or a coalition of nations) to have that kind of influence or authority, and this proposal doesn't give me good vibes.
