I wonder what would have happened if they just delayed until they were in lithuanian airspace.

EDIT: just realized there were fighter jets involved...
Right to repair is not about countering the thinness fetish but countering anti-consumer business practices such as using security screw instead of normal screws, making deals with vendors to hinder ability of shops to buy components for repair and so forth.
For all you out there that build websites targeting Europe: please allow us to disable machine translation. In germanic language speaking countries nearly all are fluent in English. Maybe not all of the elderly but if you want to do businesses with them, machine translation will not be good enough.
In music, "conscious" thinking deteriorates performance, because you'll be too late. It adds at least 100ms, but often more (note: there are explanations that model the delay as extra processing, or as interference, or as inhibition), so you'll drop out of the rhythm in no time. It also messes up fast fingering, so you'll be out of tune as well. Motor functions are really time sensitive. Try to write a word while thinking what your fingers have to do to move the pen...

I'm not sure this study shows this, though. Lesser activity may be caused by other effects, e.g. because they're better trained, they can set up the motor program (which is often ballistic) in less time. There's also an account where accuracy is linked to larger ensembles of neurons firing simultaneously, so inaccuracy might look the same as prolonged activity.
Both sources provided are not news organizations, they are agenda-driven opinion peddlers. It is not hard to figure this out.
Perfect! You have given me enough information to get started.

Thank you! And all the best for DynaBlogger!! :)

There are other ways if you're honestly trying to be fair. eBay for instance could have made 10% of (price+shipping) exempt assuming 10% was the nominal fraction before abuses.
I thought this should not stand yes. Not sure if I said so publicly at the time. I was less active on fora.

PS: I am a Snowden supporter though :) I think he did us a great service. I'm not American but he exposed the extent to which our details are shared with US intelligence agencies.
We use it at work for hosting an app designed pre-cloud (using one db per tenant) in AWS:

We deploy auto-scaling groups for each major app version (because customers can choose when to upgrade, so we can have anywhere from 1-3 versions live at a time). There's a database that has an entry for each customer system, with one or more domains, the app version and the db name (usually auto-generated but for historical reasons can be set manually). There's a UI to manage all this.

A script takes this data and builds haproxy config, creating backends for each version group and routing rules for domain to the proper group. This part could maybe be done with ALB now, but I am not certain of that.

We also automatically configure SSL for all domains: anything that doesn't have a static .pem file gets LetsEncrypt cert. Most of these are done via HTTP-01 because they're customer-owned domains that just CNANE to us. None of this is doable via AWS built-in stuff.

There's also a bunch of other hacks that haproxy does:

doesn't redirect to SSL for a couple specific (non sensitive) URLs+user agent that doesn't follow redirects;

returns a fake "success" page for a long-gone service called by an obsolete client some customers of (ex-)customers are still running, which effective causes a DDoS attack due to retries if we return 404 or 5xx;

Has some awareness of backend state and shows better error pages than just a generic 5xx depending on situation.

Haproxy instances are behind NLB, but otherwise there's a single (layer 7) hop to the app server.

The end result is you can configure a new system via our management UI, and so long as DNS is setup (using a wildcard subdomain we own, and/or customer's CNAME entry) within a few minutes it will be live (database deployed, app servers aware of connection/domain mapping, proxy configured with SSL).
Really depends on what Org you're working for. I've had a lot of colleagues in support get pulled away to SaaS vendors to get paid more. I actually talked with a friend the other day who essentially offered me a job with 50% the workload and $30k+ more per year.

While SDE/SDMs/etc. probably get paid the top of the compensation when looking across companies, support isn't the same. Also, most of that is likely tied up in RSUs.

But I know for a fact L4 people in AWS's SOC get paid more than L5s in support. But AWS's SOC isn't a remote position, and I'm not in a position to move to where the SOC teams are located.
Whataboutism is a lazy rhetoric device, the term was literally coined by Kasparov about Soviet dictator apologists.
Obviously. I’ve also heard that, when you have been rejected for a US visa, you cannot fly from Canada to Latin America, because you cannot fly over the US.

Was the plane over Belarus, though?
Way too much software that is either Windows or macOS only. We make games so there isn’t really the choice.
Do you have a link to that video?

What I've noticed from "right of repair" types of complaints is that they're often missing any search for ulterior motives regarding those decisions beyond "well obviously the only reason they did this was because they wanted to make it hard to repair". I need to reserve judgment until I see what Rossman has to say about the specific instance you mention - but is it possible the chip is actually not identical, and Apple has made customisations that change how it works beyond merely making it hard to repair? And Apple would not want competitors to be able to purchase these chips because they're somehow superior to the standard ones, at least for the use case Apple has custom-ordered them for?

In these kind of scenarios I really don't see how a trillion dollar company would be worried about squeezing a few extra dollars by putting an extra dependency in their logistical pipeline by ordering a very specific chip whose sole purpose is to put a relatively insignificant hurdle for repair shops to repair a device. I say relatively insignificant, because I'm guessing the impact shouldn't be that much - not many repair shops would order all possible chips, find defective ones, and solder the chip in/out as a service or do it cost-effectively, and of those that do, most will probably just salvage those chips from other broken devices, meaning the decrease in repaired devices is very small in terms of value for Apple, but the extra work it generates for them would be immense and, I believe, disproportional.

I'm watching this video[0] here where he's complaining about 4 charging chips, and if one of them breaks none of them work. Rossman mentions it's "completely asinine engineering design". He completely fails to think about whether there'd be any reason for this behaviour. Maybe Apple engineers aren't as dumb as he portrays them to be, and actually have made that decision for a very good reason. Maybe the failure modes of those chips actually involves a possibility of damaging the battery on the output side, and the output side is not separated - e.g. the output lines of those chips all come together on the same bus towards the battery, and thus if one chip is broken it could easily put the wrong kind of energy on those lines, causing damage to the battery and possibly it exploding. For this reason, Apple decided to keep things safe and as soon as one part of that system is malfunctioning, not to try and work through it in order to avoid a 1 in a million "battery explodes" kind of situation.

I'm not an electrical engineer and know next to nothing about how these systems work internally, but I believe there's too little nuance in Rossman's opinions and that impacts his credibility to me.

For example, your app logs clicks on the "submit" button, but there's a bug in your UX and the button is clickable/tappable multiple times while the form is being processed, instead of being disabled while being processed. Some users are tap-happy and will tap many times thus counting for multiple submissions. If that's how you count actions in your dashboards it will overcount.

In terms of resources, I'm not aware of a one-size-fits-all approach... the most basic would be to define upfront what the playbook is for making backfills, and testing it once in a while if you don't get the natural opportunity to do it.
We don't put this financial burden-of-self-defense on any other industry though. Why is cybersecurity different than physical retailers?

Walgreens isn't responsible for providing their own police force. Sure, they put locks on the doors, but the burden of protecting businesses is on the police, which they (and we) pay for via taxes.

You could say "Oh, a business which can't defend itself against looting doesn't deserve to be in business", and maybe you end up with like 5 mega-Walmarts who can afford heavily armed guards, but this isn't actually a better society in the end than one with robust small businesses.

It's the same with cybersecurity -- you can take everyone except Google, Amazon, and Facebook off the internet, because only those three can hire top-of-the-line security professionals, but that's not actually a better internet than the one we have now.
“To down” a plane makes it sound like it was shot down.
while clearly an asshole move, "grounding" morales' plane did not involve fighter jets coercing the plane down.

Segmod: Non-Standard Sound Synthesis
> If the majority treated meat as a luxury, a weekly delicacy instead of daily staple for example, no one would have to give up meat if they didn’t want to and could afford to buy it.

That's assuming that supply remained basically the same.

If demand for meat dropped to the point where people were only eating it a once or twice a week instead of daily, supply would dry up to the point where it would actually become a rare delicacy and most people wouldn't be able to afford it much.
Many of my friends on FB know that their data is being harvested, and simply don't care.

As for me, I would use an alternative platform in a heartbeat, but all the privacy focused ones so far have not gained any traction.
You know? I had to work with the Siemens Mipsen(RM400/600 with Sinix/Reliant Unix) for some time. They were built like a tank, with massive cases, and usually almost silent because of that.

Thinking about that now, they could have been featured in some post-apocalyptic game like Fallout, or similar :-)

Anyways, the mainboard was from Silicon Graphics(said so on the board, made me smile at the time), and they had
a different firmware/bootloader and usually lacked the graphics option, apart from a simple framebuffer.
A mechanic is well-positioned to notice that a particular car engine has an unusually high rate of a certain type of failure, and very often to identify the root cause of said failure. If Subaru head gaskets fail because they're bathed in fluids when the engine isn't running, and Ford Tritons spit out spark plugs because they only used 3.5 threads in an aluminum head, mechanics who work on them will notice. Rossmann is in an equivalent position.

Of course there may be good explanations for design decisions that negatively impact reliability, but it's reasonable for owners to be grumpy about it. It also wouldn't completely shock me if there's a former Ford engineer out there somewhere collecting a paycheck from Helicoil, a manufacturer of threaded inserts used to repair stripped spark plug holes, with no current job duties.
Surprising from somebody who in the words of Apple has a "personal penchant for drama" :).
If that’s the case, it’s weird that they would take the time to write a blog post about how great their algorithm is while effectively saying that they didn’t understand the other approaches and that they were too hard.
Again mutagenesis I would consider "manipulating DNA directly using technology" its just using a less targeted and more random approach.

Every variation of life today including poisonous and deadly plants and animals came from random mutation over time.

For example tomatoes and eggplants and peppers are closely related to tobacco and to deadly nightshade. How likely would a random mutation create a poisonous version, or one that is just poison to some people. Many people are allergic to them already.

Artificial selection with artificial mutation speed that process up greatly, targeted gene editing even further but in a more controlled way.

Which process is more likely to produce harmful side effects? Is there data to warrant engineered organisms are more likely or is it just unwarranted fear?
> the design of a modern motherboard, which is highly complex

The design of a modern motherboard is far from complex since all the complexity has pretty much been hidden inside the black boxes of highly integrated circuits. You as a designer do not in general need to concern yourself with the implementation details and just need to understand the interfaces, similar to, for example, using python's numpy as opposed to writing BLAS or LAPACK from scratch.
Sound examples at the link below, this is a better overview of what segmod is about than the github readme:

> Segmod is a non-standard sound synthesis that embraces the discrete nature of digital sound. All sounds created with Segmod result from the concatenation of simple periodic waveforms, such as sine, triangle, and square waves. The sixteen contributing composers have employed a vast array of different compositional, aesthetic, and technological strategies, ranging from inaudible sounds, to neural networks, chaotic functions, careful micro-montages, and analysis-resynthesis techniques. While the results differ widely in sound, all lead back to the idea that synthesis can be seen as a form of composition.

I’ve used the software that lets you modify all the CPU flags and nothing helps. Killing turbo boost sucks, having a frequency in the 3.0Ghz+ instead of 4.4Ghz+ is brutal when you are single thread bound.
The 2x differential between GenX sex rates and the current sex rates seems like a pretty good statistic. Can't imagine anything that's affecting that number but the massive distribution of pornography enabled by the advent of the internet, reducing the need for real intimacy, especially given the way that our culture is even more hyper sexualized than back in the 60s and more enabled by dating apps.
What about funding your robinhood account from your bank and not a card, so neither you nor robinhood pay transaction fees?
I didn't mean it that way. I wasn't trying to be facetious either. Consider that I was merely making a statement about a place that you're probably unfamiliar with :)
The security industry is unique in how much and how quickly it changes. There are two kinds of companies that hire infosec professionals in my experience: Those that understand that change and the resulting need to plug their employees into the industry training pipeline, invest in their active learning and those that don't. Those that don't more often than not have laughable or terribly unbalanced job descriptions where they're willing to pay decently well but demand a golden platypus riding a unicorn, and those types of hires might have a shortage indeed.
Why would NATO do anything about an aircraft from a neutral country ?
Am in this camp and this is almost exactly the way I learned k8s.

Still feels like we've lost the plot and over complicated the deployment of an app.
This is literally not a whatabout since we are discussing the same actions here, forcing an airplane down and breaking international laws, norms and traditions.

Let us try to decide if some of the posters here are hypocrites or not.
The email option is a simple concept, and it's the simple stuff that we often look over. I'm a big fan, nice job!

$8 a month seems like a great price point for a fully managed service. Just out of curiosity, what's the plan if someone's blog gets a lot of attention and ends up using quite a bit if bandwidth? I don't think that'd be an issue unless there are a ton of images, but I'm always interested in how devs choose to handle these edge cases.
This library checks out - I recently used threads.js in combination with a Tensorflow.js integration in a React app to analyze the metadata of WebRTC feeds at production scale.
Comma Two Disaster
We had the Comma Two installed in a 2019 Toyota Sienna by a professional installer of aftermarket components. This was after e-mailing the company to ensure that our car was fully compatible with the system. When they went to hook up the system, the electrical system "lit up like a Christmas tree" and we had to get it over to the Toyota dealer Nearly every fuse was blown and it cost us a thousand dollars. Comma Two refunded our money for the system but would do nothing about the repairs as the system was installed by a "third party." If they don't install them, what do they consider a "non-third party."
Security is always going to be a cost side of the business, to be minimized.
Not true, the eBay analogy is pretty flawed. Unlike with eBay this isn’t a matter of simply shifting classification of revenue - the app store is guaranteed to be the most convenient and obvious way to charge for any given app or service related to that app due to Apple’s other rules. They prevent developers from mentioning or linking other payments avenues. And if you want to charge in app of course it’s only via Apple. From what I’ve seen only big existing and strong brand services like Netflix are able to overcome these barriers and even some of those still pay Apples feee (Spotify).

The playing field remains tilted heavily in Apples favor. But they (apparently) wanted even more - extensive compensation for economic activity that happens far from the App Store even when the link to the App Store is secondary.

The economic history of this sort of activity is well documented, and the extent to which it distorts markets well established. It’s plainly an antitrust violation, and both society and the software market would be free-er and more prosperous if our laws were enforced here.
> A credit card with standard transaction fees

But they're only standard because the credit cards asserted these fees, we got used to them, and now they seem obvious, right? (I remember plenty of merchants who used not to accept credit cards to avoid the fees, but, whether by bank pressure or just the weight of expectation, there aren't many of those any more.)

It surely won't be too long until these fees are 'standard' too, in the sense that they're totally usual and customary, whether or not they're reasonable.
Clearly the correct solution would be to over-engineer a standard allowing for support for all arbitrary calendars.
I wonder how they even knew who was no board... Are airlines forced to share the passenger list with every country they fly over? That's news to me, and seems like an unacceptable intrusion of privacy...
Steam on ChromeOS: “A win-win situation for both Google and Valve”?
I'm afraid it's simply a terribly crooked use of those.
"While Rogers’ questions don’t necessarily indicate how she’ll rule"

Really? Here's some quotes from her:

“The gaming industry seems to be generating a disproportionate amount of money to the IP you’re giving them and everyone else”

“You don’t have competition in those in-app purchases, though,”

“It doesn’t seem to me that you feel any pressure or competition to actually change the manner in which you act to address the concerns of developers”

I suppose that doesn't say exactly how she'll rule, but it seems like there's at least some indication of how she feels about it.
I am a Sr. devops engineer and have been looking to transition to a devsecops or even some sort of security ops role for a YEAR. I am willing to take a pay cut and move to a more junior role but I can never pass the HR filter of “prior security experience needed.”
Keep in mind these laws exist because of how messed up European kings and queens were throughout the last several centuries. The Magna Carta exists because classical European governments could not be trusted. Why should they be now?
MLK was pretty divisive figure tho. Quite hated and seen as disturbing the peace.
The article is “One Man’s Fight for the Right to Repair”, so it indeed is focusing squarely on Rossman and his involvement in R2R. If it were just an article about R2R that briefly mentioned Rossman, your comment would be true.
He's saying that <60% minus 30% is <30%.

Assuming Apples takes their cut from gross revenue and not margin, which I believe is true.
Clearly languages that adopt a written form (still happening today) or change alphabets (Mongolian was discussed on HN in the past couple of weeks) undergo linguistic shock.

Austria and Prussia officialized spelling in he 19th century (Prussia simply said “whatever Duden says”). The German government reformed the language in the early 20th century. Apparently there was an attempt in 44 but I haven’t heard much about it — there was a lot of other stuff going on at the same time.

I don’t know if you were around for the one in 96 — it was significant enough to be quite controversial even at the international level. When my kid entered school in 2004 there was a furious argument among the parents as to whether the new spelling rules should be adopted (foolish, as the new rules were the law).

I believe the 1902 reform was when ß was defined to be „ss“ rather than „sz“ as it is drawn and named (I always thought it would have been cute Salzgitter’s symbol to have been ß rather than SZ’.

Of course there are less formal changes as well: the adoption of Latin letterforms pretty much killed some Fraktur letters like tz (I inherited some books from a friend whose own schoolbooks from the 1930s still used and taught these letters)
I had swiss made EDO-Ram with insane(low) latencies from Siemens. Sixteen MEGABYTES of it! Looooong before Quimonda ;-)
It's difficult to provide evidence for a prediction (perhaps you just mean data), but perhaps a counter revolution is already here, based on this:

"Between 1991 and 2017, the percentage of high-school students who’d had intercourse dropped from 54 percent to 40 percent. Today, people in their early 20s are twice as likely to be sexually abstinent as Gen Xers were at the same age."

But revolution is also probably the wrong word. I believe the sexual revolution in the 60's was rather sudden, all things considered. The trend depicted in the article just seems like a gradual decline, or perhaps the reversion to some sort of society mean.
Yes, many people did. Why are you baselessly accusing the parent of hypocrisy?
I'm talking about the day to day things in our lives, has gone completely beyond any normal person's ability to repair, diagnose, or, really, understand at all.

A "normal" person's inability to understand or repair is limited by the lack of the literature, tools and parts - not because technology has "advanced". (To a lay person, any technology that they doesn't understand is akin to magic to them). And this is ignoring the glaring obvious - things are today being deliberately designed to be unrepairable because that's more profitable for company's like Apple that even lobby against any Right to Repair legislation. Remember, if they want these companies can design things to be easily repairable - e.g. concept https://frame.work/blog/introducing-the-framework-laptop
