Ah, ok I didn’t realize context of “all over the place” meant in terms of reasons for taxation. I do think there is a growing movement in business to have a multi-dimensional focus. B-Corps are one example.
Hmm, we have actually never gotten that! Can dig into it.

What browser/device are you on? We don't support mobile (added this to post!) because the vision charts need to be displayed at a certain size. There's usually a warning that pops up for mobile, but it's earlier in the flow than what we posted to HKN.

The first amendment is pretty absolute: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.”
I wonder if they're calculus here is that its more likely a laptop/desktop login is shared than phone access (which will require a gesture, passcode, or specific face). SMS can get real personal much faster than email (can use temp emails for those questionable logins but you tend to have one personal number)

Or its actually a bug, lol
In that case, if your system leaves you with no way to contact that user and say "Hey, there's an issue with your account that is causing a problem that we need your help to solve, get back to us within 3 days or else we're going to need to reset your account", you've failed at customer service.
It seems that you are using 'government secrecy' to include 'individual (prisoners') privacy'. You don't have a right to access the medical records of any federal prisoner, for example, but that doesn't mean the government is suppressing the information; rather that it's upholding the general right to medical privacy.

I suspect the reason it has received little attention is that the sponsoring organization, WoLF, is known for allying with rigorous Christian conservatives and seems to be motivated exclusively by dislike of trans people.

The BBB never mattered, even if my fellow olde pharts thought it mattered. Note the part where you state that "businesses...paid". What's that phrase folks on HN throw around way too much about who pays, and who the real customer is? BBB was the /dev/null for customer complaints that the businesses paid to cause customers to think they had effective complaint channel.

Source: oldster from back when folks naively thought a complaint to the BBB made any difference, and a former owner of a business that was a member of the BBB.
I think I misspoke. I thought OP was taking about iOS.

In the sense of your app they don’t. But you play by their rules. If you don’t want Apple deciding things on your software, don’t develop for iOS, it’s simple.

Brave is a Chromium fork which mostly just adds UI features. They don't appear to have the will/man-power to modify and develop fundamental browser features, so using Brave doesn't do much against preserving browser diversity.
Progressives are regressive, not progressive, when it comes to things like this. Their name is just a marketing label like any other political group. I am a staunch advocate of true free speech to the grave, and it's incredibly saddening to see Americans start attacking what I consider one of our greatest achievements.

Always wondered this, thanks for sharing!
So, there are lots of countries with a shortage of cardiologists, some of whom could probably use any halfway effective AI solution if the alternative is no radiologist available at all. Perhaps this sort of thing should be started in a medium-income country rather than the wealthiest? Not the ones who cannot afford the equipment at all, but the ones whose trained radiologists keep leaving for wealthier countries.
Cool, but it doesn't look like this guy doing anything out of the ordinary.

He has a right to complain about his horrible experience and the way Apple customer support treated him.

Reading those emails from the CEO left a bad taste in mouth.
I don't think anyone who doesn't work for you has any obligation whatsoever to consider your image. As a CEO and public face of a company you should go ahead and assume that anyone you threaten or badmouth will go ahead and talk about it online, on the news, or with a bullhorn at the local mall.

He willingly traded some percentage chance at a competitor using an open source project to steal some percentage of his business for this PR nightmare. Personally I think this effort shows the bar for such a project is pretty low so I don't think shutting it down was a good trade off. I think it shows immaturity, bad will, bad faith and honestly its more of a case study in whom not to work for. Most people they would want to hire are liable to have multiple options. They can ill afford to be an undesirable choice.
Yeah, she seems to be undercutting her argument for the sake of a pithy sounding statement. Her point seems to be not that AI isn't manmade, but rather that it isn't particularly autonomous, given that it is built using data that is collected and labeled through enormous amounts of human labor. Obviously that doesn't have any relation to what is meant by "artificial", though.

The difference is whether the entire organisation would have to know or not. "Actually, our HDD factory is operating" is both a thing that lots of employees would necessarily know (unlike CIA assignments in Canada), and also those employees would not be as trusted as high level intelligence agency operators. Particularly for low level employees, like contracted cleaners or whatever "Don't tell anyone the factory is operating" seems like it would be a great way to get the information out there that it actually is.
My boss at a drug store did the same thing to a moderately damaged case of product X (no longer remember). He dropped it a few times and made sure it was unequivocally damaged and called the vendor.

I read through the sources you listed with interest.

Here is what I found:
The first article lists vague claims of corruption by anonymous sources claiming to be from the government. They might be credible or they might be political rivals upset over losing power. It is impossible to say for sure but I wasn’t able to find any corroborating articles.

The second article again uses anonymous sources this time from the US Government. These unnamed sources are from the same US government that, according to Wikipedia, waged a proxy war and attempted coup in EL Salvador which resulted in the 12 years long Salvadorian civil war in the 1980’s (1)

According to Wikipedia:
“The United States contributed to the conflict by providing military aid of $1–2 million per day to the government of El Salvador during the Carter and Reagan administrations and provided significant training. The Salvadoran government was considered "friendly" and an ally by the U.S. in the context of the Cold War. By May 1983, US officers started to take over positions in the top levels of the Salvadoran military and were making critical decisions and running the war.”

The last article says his government changed some judges. It doesn’t claim this was illegal though the article does mention his government had just won a 2/3 super-majority popular vote - sounds more democratic than dictatorial to me.

Seriously, read the Wikipedia article to understand the historic role of colonial oppression led by the US that resulted in the economic and social problems his popular-majority elected government is trying to resolve and tell me why we should believe the claims of their former oppressors.

I think the man deserves the benefit of the doubt until proven otherwise.

Whether or not he is successful in his efforts, I believe him to be sincere, unlike the anonymous cowards cited as sources in the articles you provide.

Frustratingly I still haven't found anything. There was a guy actually who posted a kind of Progressive Web App here on Hacker News to solve this exact problem. It stored everything in local storage in the browser. It's really cool, but it was hard to see stuff on the desktop, as there was no link to the phone. Also you had to enter everything manually, which was OK for me.

I'm still searching.

I personally am looking for some solution that DOESN'T access any data, or if it does, then stores it in an encrypted way I'm satisfied with. All the Canadian solutions LITERALLY ask you for your user ID (bank card number...), and password to access ALL the website of your bank. I'm just thinking -- all it takes is one hack and...

You can boot into fastboot (a barebones flashing and unlocking mode implemented by the bootloader itself) and recovery (a real kernel + minimal UI on top to apply updates and wipe). From fastboot mode, you can boot into an arbitrary image, but that obviously requires an unlocked bootloader. Unlocking the bootloader almost always performs a wipe "to protect data".

In principle, it should be possible to have a diagnostic mode the same way recovery is implemented. But there are no device I know of that have this.

How so?
Family member worked on a board of a hospital, they raised charitable donations to buy more powerful software for the radiologist.

The radiologist can now work 10x faster and still bills the hospital the same amount.

The Doctor's Guild is exceedingly powerful.

I really wish Wallmart or Amazon would get into providing healthcare services on the long tail - a lot of common stuff.

I sounds odd but both those companies are built around ripping margins out of the value chain and not keeping much for themselves.

Ok, maybe not either of them ... but something like that: The 'Walmart of Healthcare' that revolutionizes cost.

Also - there are enough Medical Practitioners who would work there. Enough of them do care about patient outcomes, cost etc..
High limits that quickly get paid down are not a problem. I've even once called my CC company to request an increase specifically for the purpose of putting through one large charge to get the rewards on it--I explained exactly why I wanted it. (It was going to cost me the same if I used a CC or a check.) I paid off the pending amount at the time so the whole amount was available. One big charge, paid off next month, then back to normal.
I appreciate the sentiment here, but this strikes me as very dangerous advice, especially framed as a blanket rule. Even more so when dealing with someone who has presumably far greater resources.

There's no way you can know what this person's legal exposure might be without seeing their employment contract. They may well be completely in the right and this CEO is all bluster, but it's unequivocally bad advice to suggest that there's nothing to be concerned about based on the information you have.

Even beyond that, I've (unfortunately) known companies that were entirely willing to dump money into lawsuits they knew they had no hope of winning just to set the precedent that you should not cross them or they'll bury you in legal expenses.

In the end your advice may be exactly right, but it's definitely not reasonable to make these kinds of blanket assumptions.
The WatchOS update seems inconsequential. I don't know what the team did all year. I can only assume they are saving some news for the next watch release because they are hardware-dependent.

Or maybe, they just need some competition. Or, rather, any competition.
Not OP; but have hEDS. CFS with brain fog is the most disabling part. Chronic back pain is the second. Post exertion malease means if I accidentally overexert myself I can be stuck in bed for days recovering. Bad posture due to loose ligaments.

Ah yes, Apple explicitly states on their web page to never give the pass to anyone, including apple staff.
In the backyard shops, they probably ask for no malicious reasons, but when you think how many people have their email client open or WhatsApp images with kyc docs or credit cards it makes you think how reckless or careless some people are.
Most of the people are not aware that some apps can be configured to always require a password any time an app is closed. That said, i do not remember seeing that functionality on WhatsApp, did I just overlook it?
People who overdraft have an average balance of $350 in their deposit account. My hunch is it was too much risk even with Capital One’s predictive risk models. Better to sell them on credit cards instead (where the rate builds the risk of default in).
> your 8 year old ThinkPad is less powerful than a $300 smartphone

What does "more powerful" even mean? If you mean "better single-threaded CPU performance", I absolutely don't believe you. If you mean "better multi-threaded CPU performance", I might believe you, but would need evidence.

Moreover, that's irrelevant. I, and everyone else who talks about "bloated Electron apps" (including in this thread) is almost exclusively referring to desktop applications. Why would we be talking about running Electron on a smartphone?

> Electron will be using GPU rendering.

Sure. Can you show that CPU usage will still be low? In my experience with Electron applications on a newer laptop with decent graphics (can play Dota 2), CPU usage is still 15% of a single core while literally nothing is happening.
Wow. That is unexpected. I have to say that FaceTime in a browser sandbox is one of the few Apple products I would consider using. I wonder what made them take this path?

I also wonder if someone could build a Matrix bridge if it is available via web, that would be fairly cool.

Some questions:

- Is it phone-number based IDs? Or can I pick a username or get a random ID?

- Is spam going to be a problem? Previous Apple had the advantage that you had to buy a multi-hundred dollar advice to call someone. Will they need to implement new spam measures (or will you simply have to add a contact first)?
I'm very sad to hear that you were threatened with a lawsuit — it's an impressive project. Unclear what jurisdiction you're in (probably the US), but in the UK they would have a hard time arguing in court that your project damaged them.
Based on what I am reading, unless I am misunderstanding, which considering how our laws are written I'm surprised anyone is capable of understanding them entirely.

https://www.callahan-law.com/are-non-competes-enforceable-in... (where I am reading up about this from)

It seems California outlawed non-competes in the sense that if I am a programmer, and I sign a contract which states that I must not be a programmer for the next 5 years after working for X, that is instantly voided.

But this is different, as an intern I copied in essence the core business model (not directly copying the code) and open sourced it, seems like a conflict of interest. Which in this case a non-compete might be able to be held as it's mostly saying I'm a programmer for a company which does X, I can't move to a competitor, or become a competitor (which is somewhat what the intern did).

As someone who is definitely not a lawyer or judge I have no idea where the laws/courts or otherwise stand on this matter in actuality.

I honestly think this extends beyond "art" and into humanities and even some sciences.

1) If you need to go to grad school for your profession, don't do an undergrad that's 60k a year.

2) If your undergrad tuition per year is roughly greater than or equal to your likely salary, do not do that undergrad program.

I went to one of those 60k a year schools to get a 100k salary out of college and even now I'm still technically in debt (interest free loan to my parents is all I have left).

I'm more and more of the belief that high sticker prices at schools should be punished by not attending.

I think learning to gray rock my way through interactions with angry narcissists helped me here. It turns out people who are angry about something expect a certain reaction to their rage, and that rage deflates fast when you don't follow the same script. Ego depression isn't quite the same as getting rid of ego, but it has the same effect.
It's funny how much Apple dominates our memory.

It was only a couple years between the 1998 Comdex and when I got my first wifi PalmOS device with a color screen. At some point my handheld devices acquired the ability to connect directly to a cellular network, which was nice, and then became really nice with the iPhone. But I don't think that was ever a planned feature for the WebPad in the first place.

The form factor is perhaps more interesting. We did have to wait 12 years until Apple legitimized the idea of a device along these lines that doesn't fit in a pocket.
