new iphone: bigger screen and more camera lenses

Apple doesn't need to be cool anymore. they just need to keep selling a crapload of phones every year and app store downloads, which they seem to have no problem doing. Neither Google nor Microsoft are cool yet are still hugely successful with surging share prices.
It's probably still copyrighted in China or something. Or maybe Saudi Arabia.
there is easily a billion dollar plus market of accessories that resolves entirely on knowing what the next iPhone will be like.
Neither sound genuine to me. If anything, they sound like a cover for everything else the politicians want to do.

Think about the results the EU has achieved in digital. They've managed to:

* create pop-ups on almost every website

* screwed over regional pricing so that Bulgarians have to pay the same price as Belgians. Somehow region locks still exist though.

* tried implementing a system where all ISPs had to save all traffic of their users users

* recently the EU adopted a new copyright directive that will force digital platforms to pay money to copyright holders because a user might upload copyrighted content

* implemented a digital VAT system that screwed over microbusinesses, because the politicians couldn't be bothered to implement a minimum threshold (they eventually did... After a few years)

On the green front more has been done. But I'm not quite thrilled that they banned straws and strong vacuum cleaners. Neither do I like that they seem to be trying to make sure that we end up stuck with confusing USB cables.
The way to punish someone for a false claim (both for claims filed on youtube and claims filed elsewhere) is to file an expensive lawsuit against the original claimant. It's very burdensome.
Not normally no but in this instance it is "representative of the vast majority of my ISP's customers with 1/1gbps connection". I'm convinced that most people who order 1gbps (or 25 for that matter) is aware that WiFi isn't able to provide those speeds most of the time if ever.
It's not about the building. It's about the story casting aspersions on someone as if they were culpable when there is no indication they are. This was done by reading the document out of context.

Put yourself in the shoes of a building administrator responsible for oversight of hundreds to thousands of properties. You get a report like this, on a relatively young building and it looks very ho-hum.

But NPR is presenting it with hindsight bias and acting as if there was something ominous in the report. There simply wasn't... and the story is just gotcha journalism.

For integer primitives, all possible values are valid. Just allowing binary initialization for structs that consist of integer types would allow compatibility with C structure. As it is, I have to either resort to unsafe code or manually deserialize every struct
> 1. Companies that made a business out of doing SBIR grants (I think the previous poster may have meant the same with SBIR farms). They write one grant after another and do some BS research, write reports and in the end, trash the results and move to the next SBIR

This was kind of my experience, though it isn't quite so malicious generally. The overhead in setting up the contract, while not ridiculous, is enough that once you get one, you usually end up getting another, and so on until you become an SBIR farm. The grants come in phases, Phase 1 being research and proposal, Phase 2 prototype, and Phase 3 basically being follow on contracts for production/continued development. You have to get them in order and if you only farm Phase 1 contracts you won't get super far. That said getting past Phase 2 is quite hard as the kind of stuff they generally ask for (weird one off fixes for various government procurement requirements) don't generally commercialize well.

They're frequently moonshot type efforts for the size of businesses they're targeting and the ROI is low unless you're using them to build and pay a team for some other goal. That said, if your goal is to build a team/small facility and you know what you're doing, it's not a bad option. It just isn't really anything like what the rest of the software world's VC funding model.
YouTube has a history of banning creators for things they do or say outside of their specific platform. (c.f. Stefan Molyneux)

My guess is that since RWW has a pretty active doxxing operation running outside of YouTube, they've decided to take action on that basis.

Only a guess, though.
Expend your precocious time on building local community, work in industry that actively seeks to mitigate extant anthropomorphic climate disruption.
Use less share more.
Vote.
Be aware and active in local and regional politics to counter the externally financed divisiveness that brought you to your current frame of mind, they serve as a feeder system for whack jobs further up.

Work on proactive preventive agriculture adjustments (farmers intuition will not be keeping up). plant genetics, alternative tending protocols, land preservation (includes ownership as in who).
Don't put all your seeds in one dustbowl.

Find less polluting energy, realistically we don't want to use that much less.

Help get off this rock so we can exploit the whole solar system and give the planet where we live a bit of respite.
Few things are more cringe than that mission impossible sequence from the one last year. Worrying the amount of yes people that must have got through to be made.
Some choice quotes from the ruling:

> The FTC is apparently unwilling to allege that Facebook has ever (pre- or post-Instagram acquisition) had something like 85% or even 75% market share; instead it hedges by offering only that the number is somewhere north of 60%. The question naturally arises: which firms make up the remaining 30–40%? Although Plaintiff is correct that it is not required to identify every alleged competitor in its pleadings, its choice to identify essentially none is striking.

> The Court’s decision here does not rest on some pleading technicality or arcane feature of antitrust law. Rather, the existence of market power is at the heart of any monopolization claim. As the Supreme Court explained in Twombly, itself an antitrust case, “[A]district court must retain the power to insist upon some specificity in pleading before allowing a potentially massive factual controversy to proceed.” Here, this Court must exercise that power. The FTC’s Complaint says almost nothing concrete on the key question of how much power Facebook actually had, and still has, in a properly defined antitrust product market. It is almost as if the agency expects the Court to simply nod to the conventional wisdom that Facebook is a monopolist.
I'm a pretty big fan of Boon chili oil. It's similar but not the same, and comparatively much healthier.
Please don't take HN threads on generic ideological tangents. Those lead to highly repetitive discussion, which is tedious and usually turns nasty — therefore not what we want here.

You say they are "simply" a representation of fiat money, basically a fiat mirror held in crypto, but they play an incredibly important role in the ecosystem:

- In some countries, swapping crypto to stablecoin (another crypto) has no tax implications whilst swapping to fiat does have consequences.

- For big account holders (not me), stablecoins are the only way to put gains on "dry land". If you win big on exchanges, you can't take it out at once, there's withdrawal limits. It can takes months to get it out, years if really rich. During all this time, your gain may finish if you'd hold it in the original coin, so stablecoins secure your profit in the meanwhile.

Fascinating? No, but definitely important.
From what I read I don't think they're using superconducting technology.
I haven't had Heinz on my table for years and I have young kids.
I wonder if you can really be middle class somewhere like China: you can definately get the income etc. But as soon as you speak out or fall afoul of a local party official you're done.

Of course that doesn't change the achievement of moving people out of material poverty en-mass.

This is hilarious and makes so much sense. God, the internet is broken
Wow, I don’t use Instagram so I haven’t seen this, but that’s a very nasty pattern.
The cynic in me assumed "police grade" means no camera or mic, no memory and no battery...
It'll eventually be removed with the reasoning that its hardly used and most traffic uses the new Reddit and now they can focus on improvements without having to support this legacy code.
Times are approaching some sort of a surreal sort of balancing act where you're both required to be a super deep thinker and a "10x"er AND a happy go-to yes-man that deals with all of the 9 circles of corporate bureaucracy with a smile on your face.

I believe this is exactly what happens to young large industries that grew way too fast, went into politics and now everyone wants a piece of the pie.
FWIW, traditional banking and credit processes existed over a millennia ago. The Book of Ezekiel which writes a lot about the "sin" of interest was written around 593 BC. Exodus which classically is attributed to Moses was probably actually written down around that time as well also talks about charging interest. Clearly people over 2500 years ago had concepts of loans, interest, and debt.

Note: I am not a religious extremist, I have a traditional mortgage and an auto loan.

Ask HN: Mechanic on-demand to evaluate a used car
Would you pay $125 to have a professional and certified mechanic evaluate a used car on-site with or without you present?

This would be a substitute for bringing a used car to a repair shop for a pre-sale inspection and would allow you to consider cars beyond your local area.

Thanks in advance for any feedback!
I'm sure its non trivial, especially if youre building the clone by yourself, but over the time anki has been around, you'd think they wouldve ironed out the kinks. losing data itself isn't the problem. i can get the decks back myself. its the fact the app errors so much that its almost common knowledge to hit up r/anki and get a manual procedure to crawl through backups manually.

i think their mistake is thinking memorization tools are only focused on students and not learners in general. I use anki for memorizing chess positions, learning languages, etc. I'm also a full time worker and have plenty of money to spend on a tools that will help my productivity/hobbies. id be more than happy to fork over cash for the anki system with better client apps. if they had a concern that the cost would put them out of reach of students (their iphone app is $20 so i doubt its a concern), then they should just implement student tier memberships for free while people who can pay will pay.
Reddit's new UI is still hilariously terrible. The day they remove old.reddit.com is the day I stop using the site.

Who the hell thinks what I want when I click on an article is to bring it into a related article feed with 1.5 comments showing? If I accidentally click outside of the article area the whole thing vanishes with no way to get back where I was. I had thought these issues would be obvious and they would clean it up, but here we are months later and it is still broken from a UX standpoint.

I guess all of the devs moved over to work on their bespoke media player? You know, the one that barely works half of the time.
Yet, we did progress without it.

Learning a program organization style is helpful for beginners, if the toy problems they get are more easily solved using the style. But you progress, ultimately, by transcending it. A mature programmer mixes elements freely without labels.

Crawling-oriented locomotion is fine for babies. Adults walk, run, swim, drive, pilot, ride, sometimes even crawl. Learning to run does not make you worse at crawling, or make you run when you should crawl.
Hard to say, but many drugs can go over 100%. Some could be several hundred percent or more depending on your income. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-vertex-pharms-fda/vertex-...
I mean, if they're looking at their phone a push notification that overlays the texting app should be pretty disruptive to the act of texting and immediately enforce it.

Actually, I'm not sure if the overlay is possible, but a phone call would be pretty intrusive and on speaker phone / hands-free would be ok.
Click the ingredients tab in your link and you will see sugar listed. You aren't seeing it on the nutrition label because the FDA allows you to pretend there is no sugar as long as you have less than 1g of sugar per serving.

So, make the serving size small enough, and almost anything can show no sugar on the nutrition label.

I believe you can also use the term "sugar free" as long as you have 0.5g or less sugar per serving.
> Animals are pretty inefficient at converting plants to calories, e.g. see ...

That is not what that graph shows. That graph purports to count all energy 'inputs' into the system, including human labor. This is not about 'how many calories did the cow / pig eat, versus what it produced'.

Here's an example.

Consider wheat grass. Both a cow and a human can eat this grass. However, the human can eat the seed, the cow / pig / goat can eat the entire plant. If you burn the entire wheat plant, and count the calories released you will get some number. Let's call it Y. If you count the calories in the seed that we eat, it'll necessarily be less, let's say X.

Ideally, if we're going to produce Y calories in the grain, humans ought to be able to consume as close to Y calories as possible in order to get the total benefit. Since humans can only eat X, and X < Y. Then it makes sense to feed Y-X calories to a low maintenance animal (so not beef), and then eat the animal. This will yield some number N < (Y-X) that humans can consume. This also provides a complete protein, fats, and other nutrients not found in grain (B12, which is not found in plants period, for example, thus preventing yet another synthesis process).

X + N < Y, but it is much closer to the actual amount of energy in the grain plant than just X. And then we'd need to count the energy expenditure getting the B12 and Vitamin D produced and distributed as well. And then the supply chain risk costs. All these things have costs that never get considered.
Which Markdown though? Common mark, Gitlab, etc? Do we get any extensions? I like tables.

HTML is not bad and it is easier to parse than markdown, the trouble is javascript and the ways ads abuse them. Strip that out, set the size of images and you can create a better experience for your users without changing all browsers.

However if we can get wild requests for new content types, then I would love text/latex, so that I could create a website that fits the real size of your browser and render a gorgeous output.
My product is just an uptime monitoring service to check website ; state and notify their users through multiple channels like email, SMS, and Slack. so I think it's not a new idea and the market is already validated

I try these so far under umbrellas of: Fake it ‘til I make it / triage and pick actions that resonate enough with my values / keep pushing myself to learn and grow rather than entrench (not easy for me):

- Pretend I’m a lobbyist and call my elected officials, practicing kindness and compassion while trying to convincingly push action that aligned with what I care about changing for life on earth.

- Live my values: short, cold showers; meat as treat; reduce or cut other luxuries (chocolate, alcohol, coffee, gasoline, electricity); repair > replace; do without upgrading for longer; buy durable tools and take care of them; make a budget and review it regularly; and more.

- Share with others the preceding list in hopes of inspiring action.

- Care for my body (mental, physical) in part so that I can better-care for others; the responsible hedonism of aircraft “secure your mask first”.

- Act to improve the health of land, water, and air. In my case that means re-wilding much of the small bit of land I occupy, composting for the garden, driving less and more efficiently (Car Talk suggests going slower up hills so the engine RPMs stay steady), taking fewer long trips (I’d like to never fly again, but family pressure can be strong), mow what little lawn we keep with a mechanical reel mower (exercise for me, and less noise and emissions), and use less energy in general.

As I learn more I’ll adjust. Lobbying others towards culture shift, combined with living it so I’m less hypocritical, feels like the best I can do right now.
US only because you're scared of gdpr?
>It completely boggles my mind that anyone ever cared what the next iPhone will be like.

I mean, people had freaking launch parties for Windows 95.

Now I'm actively trying to work out ways not to install windows 11.

I swear half the people responding have never driven past a cattle ranch.
They privated their twitter right after I linked this, so I can't see it either - but the tweet had a screenshot of the email and it did state that Disney themselves were filing a DMCA for infringing content.
Reddit is diverse, there still are some good corners here and there. You need to know where to look.
Where are the developers implementing this stuff on large social media, especially Reddit who had such a user friendly founding? Surely they're here on HN. I'd love to hear their thinking in going along with this, assuming it's something better than "fuck the users I want to get paid." How do you join the dev team for a service you like and use, and then knowingly destroy it?

Yeah, it's really infuriating.. Reddit consumed most of the cool niche forums on the internet, and now it's slowly mashing them all up into a bland Facebook clone
It's odd indeed. This is a VC-created forum where its users reject entire sectors of new technology. Besides being anti-crypto, there also anti-google, anti-iot, and anti-any website looking fancier than something from 1996.

It's a thing to accept and be entertained by I guess. The stunning lack of self awareness over here is legendary though.
McKinsey’s fiduciary incentives are absolutely aligned with overcoming the major challenge of the 21st century — climate disaster is bad for business. Whether any specific individual consultant (out of 30,000 people) has the foresight to recognize and plan for that is another question.
> Companies can't use equity as compensation (which is a big lure for talent)

What? Where do you get that? Then I better return all the equity I got.

> and it's extremely hard to fire people

I would say that is hyperbolic, unless you find anything but at-will employment "extremely hard". Small companies (<20?) in Germany, can fire people without reason. I do not know any country (Edit: in the EU), where restructuring is not a valid reason to fire someone (with a severance of 0.5-1.1 monthly salaries per year of employment).

(Edit: But then, I cannot claim to know all the labour laws in the EU)

This is apologist thinking at best, intentionally misleading at worst.

You are correct that companies do have patient assistance programs. What you’re leaving out is that this applies to a small subset of people that usually have to be denied federal/state insurance, not have any other kind of insurance, and make less than 4x federal poverty level.

additionally, they rarely provide a lifelong supply. Imagine being a diabetic and novo nordisk, who makes most of the insulin types on the market, only gives you a four month supply.

Oh wait, thats exactly the terms of their patient assistance program.
It’s like the Nigerian Prince email scam but the other way around : 99% of the people who receive such an email will identify the scam and ignore it. This is totally fine for the scammers. Working as expected.

Now, in the Reddit scenario 99% of the Reddit users don’t mind downloading an app. It’s just us, techies, that 1% who cares. This is totally fine for Reddit. Working as expected.

Comment sections on big WP and Movable type blogs were a thing when Facebook was still growing.

The march has been towards continued centralization. Disqus offered to offload busywork for bloggers - spam, identification etc.

The "indieweb" is trying to bring back pingbacks etc.
If they are making campus security guards wear body cameras then it is somewhat understandable. Anyone else..just no.

Also, don't all their leaks happen from their Chinese suppliers anyways?
Like others have already noted; 1/0 == inf is something about JS, it is a consequence of JS defaulting to IEEE754 floating point representation for all numbers. Any language that supports IEEE754 FP will have the same result.
Javascript. Not to remove it, but to make it better from the start. Current JS feels painful to me because it feels like piling hacks on top of a poorly-designed language to make it palatable. Doing it better from the start sounds amazing.
I do think it is more about the way you explain something than about the actual topic. You can explain the same topic in such a way that it works for people who can visualize things, for people who like abstract concepts, for people where it is about social relationships etc.

Good educators will always target multiple of those patterns. Bad educators always target the same pattern and will therefore only have auccess with the same kind of person.

I am currently teaching electronics and programming to artists who quite uniformly hated math and physics in school, and it kinda works. You just cannot teach it in the way they would teach it to a STEM student.
I’ve been through this discussion a thousand times before. I bought an officially tested with Ubuntu T495 laptop and a kernel update broke it entirely due to bugs. X just craps itself and the whole thing hangs. I don’t have the time or inclination to deal with stuff I expect to work.

I do most of my dev work in linux but using the Mac as a terminal.
I just tried in a private browsing window: Without refreshing the page (to trigger the "forced HTTP redirect to login") I could delete the modal and disable the overflow:hidden on body and keep scrolling down quite a bit until I hit a post from January 18, 2019.

Don’t you ever think – “what would the world be like if the bad guys won?” Who said they didn’t? It is all in the eye of the beholder. If we apply some ethics like the golden rule to modern existence, then you spend your time debating where to apply it because it’s near impossible.
