Is this true for Android? I guess rooting is a _bit_ of a problem, but otherwise you could do run alternative stores? I mean it's hard to actually make money off of that, of course.

For iOS it's essentially impossible, from my understanding. But there's stuff on android to let you install apps, after all?
> Kubernetes is complex because the reality of what you’re dealing with is complex.

Passing off complexity instead of reducing it isn't a net-positive though. The purpose of frameworks/libraries/etc is to (considerably) reduce complexity. In Kubernetes, you've replaced a group of specialist engineers with just a different group of specialist engineers.

Git will provide you with a default message for git merge without specifying any flags. This message includes the branch being merged. I don't think there is support in git to view history with the branches being marked explicitly. However, you can get something similar with:

git log --pretty --oneline --graph --topo-order

That should at least group commits roughly by branch. Did that answer what you were asking?

ConsenSys | Solidity, Go, Javascript, Typescript, Node.js, Java, SRE, DevOps, (read this comment for context) | Remote worldwide | Full-time | https://consensys.net/

ConsenSys is a big name in the crypto-space responsible for MetaMask, Infura, Codefi, the upcoming Quorum Blockchain Service (which I myself work on), and various open source software projects and tooling like (non-exhaustive list) Besu (Ethereum 1 client), Teku (Ethereum 2 client), and MetaMask of course.

We're in a pretty big hiring boom at ConsenSys looking for developers/engineers/programmers (whichever title you prefer) in any one of, or a mix of, the languages and disciplines in this post.

The roles we're looking for cover pretty much every aspect of the company from internal devops to devops roles for specific projects; protocol engineering; private cloud offerings; open source software development; solidity smart contract work and more. All of which could be projects in Java, or Go, or Javascript/TypeScript (on Node.js) etc.

If that sounds interesting flick me and email and I can refer you directly which will land you straight on the shortlist for interviews (barring the usual resume screen etc): jordan.coppard@consensys.net

Precisely. Epic hasn't even demonstrated that they can run their own digital store profitably with a 12% commission—and the Epic Store isn't exactly the most sophisticated bit of infrastructure. Barely more than a half-baked Windows downloader with DRM.

Google and Apple now offer a 15% rate to the overwhelming majority of developers. Whether you call it a response to the market or a cynical ploy to stave off Government intervention, it means small and medium developers can no longer be seen as a profit centre for these mega corporations.

Apple actually has an additional compelling argument, which is the near-total elimination of software piracy on the iOS platform. I don't know what the real-world numbers are, but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if iOS developers ended up earning substantially more from the absence of piracy than they lost paying a 30% commission to Apple.
Top Skills to Become a Full Stack Developer
A full-stack developer is an expert who handles the client-side as well as the server-side of the web applications. They are a part of the development team that works on all the steps of the web application. They not only maintain the databases, design, and handle backend operations of the application, but ensure an error-free development testing and deploying the application as well.
Right, I stand corrected. I had never seen such a heatpump (based in the nordics, that concept would never fly), and I'll agree with you that in homes heated by "regular means" (resistive/electrical, fossil fuels) they add little to no value, simply adding complexity. In heating season they would just siphon heat energy from the rest of the house...

(They would however de-humudify the space they are in, but that's another thing...)

I'd argue that every house that has any sort of ventilation, even naturally aspirated ones, have excess heat in that any amount of air leaving the house "unreclaimed" while there is any heating need contains wasted energy.

Heatpumps using that energy are very prevalent in the Nordics and Scandinavia, even with a majority of the time being heating season here.

It's bad enough Netflix algorithms try to shove things in my face whether I like them or not, I don't want the food equivalent doing it literally.

> You need a way to filter what's good from what's great.

Existing algorithms already struggle with being contextual. On youtube/netflix I often want short funny videos, but other times are better to sit and watch that four hour long history of the parthian empire but the algorithms have no context for this and give me the same suggestions at both times. Food would be even worse, different meals for breakfast lunch and dinner, a desire for variety and some deeply subjective preferences would make it all but impossible.

Another issue is that cooking and taste co-evolve together. You could get the worlds best chef to make a meal but it will never be as good as me making the same meal that I've refined over the years and that my taste buds have got accustomed too. For me some of those recipes split off from my Mothers and may have diverged from what everyone else considers normal.

Thank you for the link! I have also found a free version for anyone else interested: http://physics.whu.edu.cn/dfiles/wenjian/1_00_QIC_Feynman.pd...

However, Feynman does not claim what you say he claims. His whole article is about efficiently simulating QM on a classical computer, and he shows that is not possible given what we understand of quantum probability today, at least (he does this by explicitly asking for a computer which does not grow exponentially in size with the size of the physical system it wants to simulate).

In modern CS terms, what he is discussing is whether the complexity classes BPP and BQP are equal or not (as far as we know today, just as he claims, BPP seems to be a smaller subset of BQP, but this is not proven).

This is all perfectly in line with my claim, and is in fact explicitly there in Feynman's paper: a classical computer can perfectly simulate a quantum system/computer, but requires exponential time/space to do so (as far as we know).

Yes, that is true, at least as far as we know today (it's not yet mathematically proven that quantum computers can't be efficiently simulated by probabilistic classical computers, even though we are almost certain of this).

> they are still Turing machines with a random number generator attached

It's important to note that probabilistic Turing machines are different from quantum Turing machines in terms of efficiency, as far as it is known today. But still, that doesn't change the fact that they can (inefficiently) simulate each other.
I think you're right, they cannot be a "common carrier" because decentralization (in the sense of giving people choice) of the selection algorithm makes them irrelevant. There is no other service they provide (to the end user) other than the content selection.

> Learning how to be likeable is already difficult enough for kids who have social opportunities all day every day.

As someone else pointed out, it's not clear that school helps with this. The kid who went to school and didn't learn this is not at all an outlier. There are quite a few in every class. What would be interesting is if there is research to indicate which suffers more: The kid who doesn't learn this and has to go through school, or the homeschooled kid who doesn't learn this and doesn't have to deal with it in school.

Agreed on the tutor thing at high school, although for many homeschooled kids I know, it was usually one of:

1. Send kids to a regular high school (i.e. don't home school those years)

2. Lots of schools in this area have programs that allow homeschooled kids to attend classes in the areas their parents cannot teach. Of course, rules on this vary from state to state.

In principle, yes, but in reality, you can't use a different app store or payment provider.

If you buy a Google Android phone, you have the Google Play Store. That's it. Maybe you can install some other store but 99% of consumers will never do that.

On Apple, you have to use the App Store. It's the only game in town.

This is why its a monopoly. They could charge 50% and devs would still be forced to do it. The developers and people who complain about this just want to be able to use other payment providers in their apps. They don't want to be forced to use Google Play or Apple. Let other payment providers in so they can compete on fees, customer satisfaction, chargebacks, security, etc.
