> That's because Microsoft got caught censoring the results, then they lied and claimed it was a "human error," which absolutely nobody believes.

Oh, I don't know. If we can label "accidentally using the wrong scope" as a human error, I could easily see a situation where someone meant to remove something from Chinese search results but accidentally did it worldwide. I don't know what their infrastructure is like, what kind of safeguards they have in place, or even what they do to block a result from the all-seeing algorithm. Which is more likely: that Microsoft would allow China to dictate what the rest of the world can/cannot see or that someone made a mistake and blocked something globally instead of regionally?
One reason I can think of is that (to the best of my knowledge) you can't deposit cash with Fidelity.

I generally like online banks, but for me personally, I regularly have scenarios where I need to deposit hard cash. And so far, I've found the only way to do that is to have an account with a conventional bank or credit union.
well we're talking about "cross device experience," yes? Messages and WhatsApp and FaceTime Audio "just work" in exactly the way I would expect with no configuration, health features synchronize seamlessly with Health.app on the iPhone (again with no setup), ApplePay… what are you asking for here, Safari or Finder on the Watch?
Yes, that's why USB-C powerbanks exist. I can charge my laptop from one and it's nicer than lugging around laptop batteries, plus the laptop can be thinner.
Companies have to comply with differing laws and regulations based on the jurisdictions they operate in. I honestly don't have serious doubt that Microsoft does this in the US other than because of a technical error because they simply have no incentive to.

They can add this ability at any point anyway because putting a phrase into a word filter takes about 10 minutes I guess.

What is the logical alternative here, every American company leaves every other market because they have differing censorship laws? How is that helping anyone else?
I doubt it's a lie. The explanation is simply shit enough to cover all possible outcomes.

Really internally it's now being pondered by the Corporate Apologetics team at Microsoft which will follow the standard 3 point plan:

1. Quick everyone, explain it away as "human error".

2. All we have to do now is stick our fingers in our ears and hope it stops trending on Twitter and then we're good.

3. Well fuck, that failed so we better make some large marketoid gesture about never doing it again which will consist of hiring someone in the position of "Senior Vice President of Never Getting Caught Doing This Particular Thing Again".

Of course the last point will fail miserably in this case as they will of course immediately hire someone who posted something nasty on Twitter several years ago...
Specifically, according to Codeacademy, he worked on the Codeacademy Labs product, which is similar to Repl.it.

At the time, she would have been 16. I imagine she just wanted her phone fixed and the thought didn't occur to her.
I'm in a similar position, and I do use a Mac instead (because the developer tools I rely on won't run on an iPad). I guess the root issue is I do like the touch/pen interface for creative apps (instead of a desktop interface), just not enough to justify buying / carrying around / keeping in sync a third device in addition to a laptop and a phone.

But the iPad hardware is more than fast enough for my development tasks, and the screen size is large enough (and at home I use an external monitor anyway).

So the ideal device I'd like to buy would basically be the iPad hardware with Mac software capabilities. Obviously the current iPad works for a lot of people, so it would be fine if this was separate product. But it's a bit disappointing that it doesn't exist at all since it seems like it would be a (relatively) small amount of work for a company like Apple now that iPad/Mac hardware is very similar and Macs can run iPad apps.

It’s easy to say “hey sorry network, you’re going to some explicit photos of me and I’m gonna make millions from it. Just ignore it and we’re good”. But that wasn’t the deal.

This feels a bit like the McDonald’s coffee lawsuit. On the surface it’s easy for some to take that deal (nudes for millions) but consider this:
1) she might have been Facebook friends with family or family friends.
2) this could wreck someone in high school and cause issues with dating, friends, etc. taken the wrong way it could kill your social life and cause depression
3) people jump to assuming she’s conventionally attractive. She might be very shy about her body and was taking those for herself. People might have grabbed them and made fun of her..
4) there was no guarantee of a payout and it took five years legal distraction during prime high school and college age for a resolution
5) if she is from a small town or a highly religious town, she will now be known as the girl that had her nudes leaked. If it was a religious town, it could have brought shame on the family and in some cases ended relationships
6) if this screwed up her high school trajectory, it could have messed up her grades and limited her college choices

Lastly, I think part of this amount is to make it somewhat meaningful to Apple. If it happened once because they didn’t properly vet their 3rd party, a small fine would do nothing to prevent it from happening in the future.

Indeed. I like to include two convenience endpoints in my webserver configs (except in cases where I'd need to justify them to compliance/audit, etc):

"He is the author of a book on surviving the pandemic, “Stay Safe: A Physician’s Guide to Survive Coronavirus”. He has seen his fair share of controversy during the pandemic. His book, published in June of 2020 was removed from Kindle by Amazon, hours after its launch. His outspoken views on treatments for Covid-19 have often conflicted with the official narrative.

For instance, in his book, he offers the following advice for dealing with Covid-19, and it's not difficult to see why the book was removed by Amazon.

The hell is Apple doing with their supported machines?

* iMac Late 2014 - Haswell 4th gen CPU with AMD GCN 1.0 or 1.2 GPU - not supported

* Mac Mini Late 2014 - Haswell 4th gen CPU and GPU - supported (this came out the same day as aforementioned iMac)

* Mac Pro Late 2013 - Ivy Bridge 3rd gen CPU with AMD GCN 1.0 GPU - supported

* Macbook Late 2015 - Broadwell 5th gen CPU and GPU - not supported

* Macbook Air Early 2015 - Broadwell 5th gen CPU and GPU - supported

I was thinking I could get consistent, somewhat predictable 10 year support out of Apple when buying a new machine - counting 2 years of security updates after the last supported major release. Usually Apple lets go old stuff for specific architecture features in the CPU or GPU, meaning there's some technical reason albeit unstated. But this looks like a random crapshoot? This doesn't inspire confidence for my intended new purchase this year - because the 10 years on my previous purchase is running out.

It's rough especially for people that spent thousands of dollars on the 27" 5K iMac in 2014 to be cut off in this release - really at the earliest end for Apple. That was a halo product on release and is still a damn fine computer, and will still be a damn fine computer two years from now. If you had instead bought a cheap Mac Mini the same day you'd have one more year of support at least...
> In the famous words of Peter Griffin, "OH MY GOD WHO THE [expletive] CARES?!!"

The definitions of these terms have existed for decades. Trying to confuse or conflate them is just a slight of hand to generally disingenuous ends. Very little stops people from selling products under whatever terms they want. If they are honest, they can call their product what it is: proprietary. Otherwise it is just using the term 'open' to virtue signal. So 'open' becomes the new 'green'.

> If someone isn't being paid for their work, then any version of OSS isn't really sustainable long term.

Exactly my point.

FOSS (for the most part) can't achieve financial viability in the current economic system (along with several other things).

Electronics are integral to contemporary existence in most of the world.

Without full control over their tools, human beings cannot be free/autonomous.
Not quite. Only in "red state", which is a subset of debug mode. So, even more restrictive than what you said.

But I still don't think that makes it clickbait. From the article:

> The three researchers have posted a video demonstrating how to access the two instructions with only root/admin privileges. This requires uploading a custom UEFI to SPI flash and then rebooting the system, which definitely requires having physical access to it.

So, not remote-able (at the moment). But there's enough there that I can't agree with calling it clickbait.
Sure, thanks for the feedback. Our standard library is here: https://github.com/yatima-inc/introit, I'll edit the README to make that more prominent

As far as docs and tutorials, we weren't planning on doing a public release for another month or two, so there isn't anything yet. The language is still pre-alpha, so our focus has been on getting the core working correctly before smoothing the on-ramp.

Also, tbh, I'm not 100% settled on what the user-facing syntax should be. Right now we have a simple lisp-like core syntax, but I'm thinking about implementing something like Racket's #lang declaration to allow the user to define and import frontends to that core syntax.

Not really needed when your IME is spying on you. Signal in such an arrangement becomes security theater. They acknowledge this is a problem on their support site but never make any attempt to educate new users to the app: https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360055276112-In... . It is arrogant to dismiss concerns about commonly-used IME's when people rely on this app for their own protection.

This was discussed previously on HN if anyone's interested in reading about the response, or lack thereof to the criticism: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25758995

>free and open source

Want to also point out that months go by without server code being published: https://www.xda-developers.com/signal-updates-public-server-...

Also, when users protested reliance on Google's store, analytics, and play services, Moxie chose to attack the forks and made us wait for years to get a direct APK without the requirements available off their site. I acknowledge that there's legitimate reasons why this was done, but all we get are excuses and silence for long periods of time when these problems crop up. It is not in the spirit of opensource/free software development to attack your own community.

OK, so it looks like iTunes is not required on Windows, that assumption came from Apple stating iTunes is required to transfer photos in their docs.

But it doesn't work like that on Linux anymore and I'm certain it used to. There's access to a Documents folder that has folders for things like Keynote, but no DCIM folder. Shotwell works, kind of, but is very prone to failure.

As far as the conversion, do you have the iOS Photos app settings set to not do a conversion? "Automatic" vs "Keep Originals".

How is doing nothing better than doing something?
I get your point, but in terms of “vision of personal computing” I like Apple’s vision the most and it’s sad to see there are no other companies that even try to go in that direction. Microsoft gave up on it and Google is too beholden to its “everything is a browser” strategy. So only Apple is left with a truly native ecosystem of apps with tight integrations across devices. And Apple knows this, hence why they hold us hostage in their ecosystem and want to extract as much value as possible… because they can.

> People are eager to fight something

Believe me, kids nowadays don't want to fight. They'll be sitting in the tanks, on the battlefield on tiktok or something. Worse, (better?) is the ideas they pick up from the movies. Superbly advanced civilizations, with an almost [Edit: actually] unbelievable array of weapons, still hang their fate on individual superheroes. Their principal weapons are (get this) modern day swords and spears and body armour! also, the weapons are quickly abandoned in favour of punching the opponent in the face, with no apparent effect, and they don't even do that properly. If anything, violent superhero movies should be encouraged.
From the "Look Inside" preview, I'm not convinced the book makes it as clear as it could. The "About the CD-ROM" section includes "the CD images can be used be artists and designers in developing concepts, preparing presentations for clients, and communicating visual information with others". It seems the images can be used directly in some contexts, and "communicating visual information with others" feels very vague to me.

At the very least, a note in this section stating that a licence is required for some uses would be a useful clarification.
