My old friend had a Cockatoo who lived with them as a kid, but wasn't captive at all. He just chose to spend his time with them after they found him orphaned and took care of him for a while. He would disappear for a day or two and come back, and he would follow my friend to school and hang out around the classrooms waiting. The teachers would try to shoo him and he would rage against the machine, they are loud as hell. Appropriately, his name was "Rowdy".

"Cockatoos... producing an average of 120 decibels and loudest of 135 decibels of noise. The loudness can be judged by looking at the noise level of 140 decibels of a 747 Jumbo Jet."

I recommend stepping back for a moment and asking yourself: Why is it that you, the person who believe they "know what UB is" and is sure "this is not UB" did not understand what's going on here, while the other people reading who explained why it's UB have understood exactly what's going on ?

Doesn't it seem most likely that you in fact do not understand Undefined Behaviour and didn't understand what's going on ?

I'm not saying you should make up lies. If you want to tell somebody that persistance is important, you can say "constant dripping wears away the stone", and they will understand the metaphor. It doesn't matter that this is not true for every stone or that you haven't done the experiment yourself.

Only place I had to move taskbar to the top was their surface pro, because the edge of the screen lines up with the keyboard, making it difficult to tap on taskbar items or start button in the "laptop mode". What a joke
It had some problems because they mostly didn’t test it properly. That hasn’t changed now. Hence why the edge and windows alt tab integration actually broke alt tab on windows 10 RTM for nearly 6 months.
> nobody forces you to buy Apple

there is a lot of pressure to buy either an iPhone or an official (GooglePlay) Android phone. Most (all) services only support these two options. Also true for public/governmental institutions.
A "fun" workaround would be to print a very high resolution black-and-white checkerboard. Printers generally have plenty of resolution to make that appear as gray even to the naked eye. Of course managing to print something like that without something in the pipeline trying to anti-alias stuff and introduce gray back is left as an exercise to the reader.
Yeah, that does suck. My grandfather did earn a pension and retired from the steel industry. The company went bankrupt and he got maybe a quarter of what he was supposed too and he was one of the lucky ones. Many others didn't get anything.

It would be nice if companies paid more into the 401k though, and didn't necessarily require the match. The 401k system is also letting companies off the hook with measly amounts. I'm mostly thinking about the people working at places like Lowe's and Walmart making $10-15/hr. Even 4% of $30k is only $1200 per year. Some of the people I knew who were working there were only contributing 1-2% (so 2-4% total with the match) because they couldn't afford to contribute more.

I agree it's very easy to make an off-by-one mistake in binary search. (Related article: [1]) But an interview candidate showing something that is almost right and then has enough self-awareness to say "but I'm sure there's an off by one error in there somewhere" has given a really good overall answer in my books. I think there's still value in asking the question because that sort of answer constrasts against candidates who flounder completely (which is more common than you'd imagine).

A common counter argument is that a bad interviewer wouldn't accept an answer that has minor bugs in it like that. But I don't buy that counter argument, because a bad interviewer could misjudge candidates regardless of the interview format.

Hello. Wow, how cool that you live in the USA. By the way, do you know that you do not have to return back to Russia in order to extend your visa? You can do this without visiting the consulate. If you need a getting russian visa, you can contact https://www.russia-travel.com/passport/ and they will do everything. You will only need to prepare the necessary documents and money, and wait for your visa by their reliable mail. The service is just great. I kept a link to the future for myself. I'll need it soon.
Eh Apple users you can still download this app and it will stay on their phones after it is removed from the app store

This post seems to mischaracterize what is going on and seems to be pre-prepared sentiment that has nothing to do with what actually is happening or going to happen

Apple users can still file share dos games, if they download that app now. Not clear what level of device control you are reacting to, without agreeing or disagreeing with your sentiment.
I think it's a little far-reaching to apply a pretty serious psychiatric evaluation (i.e. something meant to diagnose a significant mental deviation from the norm) to a pattern of behaviour that's incredibly common. Because it is so common, it becomes the norm. It is therefore more reasonable to assume it really is childish behaviour.
As far as I understand, a number of things make a difference:

- Socketed RAM is limited by the number of pins, DDR SO-DIMM for example has 2-3x fewer pins than your average LPDDR4X module. Having more pins helps running the chips on lower power as it was explained to me by an engineer (something to do with grounding and lower voltage, I am not really sure how it works but I trust the guy)

- Socketed RAM is a least common denominator, there will inevitably be some variance between different modules, which leaves you with less possibilities for optimizing the electrical connection

- Current LPDDR is much more sophisticated than regular DDR, the protocol is different etc. So you can't just stick LPDDR chips on a DDR SO-DIMM and expect it to work

I am sure one could design a modular system based on LPDDR, but the question is whether such system would be feasible. It would be limited to premium laptops only (as modular system would take too much space in a smartphone), it would probably need a higher pinout (which would mean a complex mounting bracket of some sort) and it would require laptop manufacturers to agree on a certain standard.

There are other considerations as well, especially if one wants to break the current performance boundaries. For example, Intel has announced that they will integrate HBM with their upcoming Xeons. How do you intend to make that socketable, that's 2048-bit memory bus. Or consider Apple's new in-house SoCs. By mounting RAM directly onto the package substrate they can potentially deliver high-bandwidth RAM in an energy efficient package without increasing the cost and the complexity of the mainboard. E.g. their upcoming hardware is widely expected to use 256-bit RAM, something that has so far been reserved for workstations. As you make the interface wider and wider, modularity becomes more and more expensive. Why don't GPU's offer modular RAM for example?

It doesn't usually work like that. Media is directed via money and preferential treatment from the ruling class. For example, in some countries state has bought air time and ads in media. Media welcomes the gravy-train and makes sure no dissent is aired.

Show HN: What Are You Working On?
I use a left-side taskbar at work. Its excellent when you're running lots of Chrome windows or similar where the title bar text is useful. In the default bottom position, applications are quickly compressed so you cannot see the title, but as text runs left-right, the task bar can display far more items whilst preserving the title. It takes a bit of getting used to, but I thoroughly recommend it.

On my personal machine I rarely have duplicate windows, so I can rely on the icons.
I am just not sure people are more educated at this point. For sure not kids graduating high school this year.

We have the technology that anyone can take classes at the best schools ever created by humans for free but the average person wants to watch a guy eat a 100 hotdogs for time or a video of someone else reacting to the hot dog video.
We are lucky to have a number of birds types in our area - this app has been amazing for identifying who's who :) I especially like that when a match is made a simple link to Wikipedia is given. As a result I now know far more about bird migratory patterns than this time last year!
Cool idea, but it seems to change just after I blink, so it is very easy to spot the changes. I guess my system has too much delay in capturing the images.

And if I keep my eyes closed longer, it seems to run through lots of different changes, and then do another change as soon as I open them. You can test this by only closing one eye - it seems to think you're blinking really rapidly.

I don't know exactly how it works, but it seems to act something like: "for each frame of video, if we can see an eye that is closed, change something on the page". I think it should change to "if we can see an eye that is closed and there wasn't a closed eye in the previous frame".

This only started with the iPhone. Apple has been around much longer and was a regular computer company before which treated their users like adults.
Minor point, not brought up by other posters.

The armageddon scenario might be much easier to trigger than von Neumann believed.

Even 'just a few' 'small' nukes could kick up enough dust to the stratosphere to severely disrupt sunlight and weather, where 'severely disrupt' means (probable) total global social collapse.
Very easy to game, actually it already is gamed in a couple different ways. One method - let's say you have a site about nutrition, you could find a doctor who wants to improve their search rankings (or find an agency that works with doctors to improve their rankings). Ask to put them on your website as the author or editor with a link back to their site. It's a win for both parties and Google can't really detect that since it isn't a two way link scheme.
> The format was developed in 1989, at which time find(1) and grep(1) and command lines pipes had been around for at least 10 years (more, depending on how you measure it).

PKZIP, which originated the Zip format, was developed on MS-DOS, which did not have find(1) and grep(1), nor did it have pipes (IIRC):

It was a third-party who created utilities that ran under Unix-y systems:

Would you rather play Russian roulette with one live round somewhere in 200,000 chambers, or one round in 100 chambers?

You don’t get to opt out and attempting to do so gets you the 100 chambers. Neither you nor your family get to sue anyone in either case. If you opt for 100 either directly or by failing to make a choice fast enough, anyone around you who hasn’t faced the 200,000 yet — even if they wanted to — faces the 100 a few days later.

This is a philosophical slippery slope. The next question is "what are facts?", or "who decides what's immoral?". I'm not interested in going down this because it's pointless.

Reading the original comment, what can construed as "too political" for HN? There wasn't any strong support or opposition.
I think what is being forgotten here is the time the zip file format was created. It was more than 32 years ago as Phil started with arc. Also; there was no internet, no windows, no linux even. It was designed for BBS file transfer. Even in the late 80's and early 90's when it was expanded to the current format for new compression and multi-platform, some machines were big endian and others little endian and that is taken into account. Means had to be added to deal with "extended attributes".

When Jean-loup Gailly and Mark Adler started infozip a lot of discussion was done to try to guess what the future would hold, but it was just that. Guessing.

The fact we are still using it all is a major miracle.

We had a third option but developers very publicly refused to support it and Google worked tirelessly to hamstring it in every way they could.

Now we're all crying for a third platform because Apple is too restrictive and Google, surprise (to no one least of all WP users), turned out to be evil and I feel absolutely no sympathy for the tech community, particularly developers who decry the current paradigm. We chose this.
I agree - I'd also be opposed. I understand why it frustrates people (especially in the cases such as iDOS 2), but it was a known factor for me buying an Apple phone. More importantly, it was an aspect of the ecosystem that I _wanted_.

On Android the Play Store is a major distributor of malware [1]. I would like to avoid that, which comes with trade-offs, which I accept. Is it perfect? No. But it works.

I do wonder if there is a path where iOS can be completely replaced by a third party OS, so iPhones can be used in a way to allow you to install anything you want, but it is no longer Apple's 'responsibility'. However, that also comes with its own set of problems.

The beauty and success of DIMM modules is that they are a simple slide-in to install technology. It's easy to operate, cheap, robust, and it is very space efficient. Imagine RAM modules in an LGA socket instead... how much space would it require? How robust would it be? What will be the price? I am quite sure all of these issues can be solved, but is it worth it? Let's be honest, users who are interested in having upgradeable RAM in their ultraportable laptop are such a small minority that the practical interest in developing modular low-powered RAM is close to zero.
Same group here, I have seen it a couple of times on the side, mostly left, but pretty much very isolated cases.

If I count it since 1992, and divide by the number of Windows devs I have met in life, it is pratically zero anyway.

I'm not sure I understand the Dropbox analogy. In what way was 4DOS "the Dropbox of MS-DOS shell utilities"?
Apple doesn’t need to say in the rules that they can do what they want, because they are the ones enforcing the rules. They can exempt anyone, including themselves, from the rules for any reason including no reason, without having to say anything about that in the rules. Human rules are not computer code, and also not mathematical. Human rules can be interpreted, bent and ignored. Sometimes at great risk, sometimes at no risk.
It's quite bizarre that Apple just released an iPad Pro with a CPU that is more powerful than the desktop CPU in my workstation, but then cripples the device by severely restricting what kind of software you can run on it.

I mainly use Linux but was looking for a secondary laptop/tablet hybrid for my office needs. I considered getting an iPad but ultimately went for a Surface Pro, which was the right choice I think. The device and UI (just Windows 10) is not nearly as polished as iPadOS, but at least I can just install normal FOSS software like KeepassXC instead of downloading some proprietary app from the store, hoping it won't exfiltrate my data. I can even play the occasional round of SimCity 2000 in DOSBox. iOS & iPadOS devices are great for media consumption, but I would never consider them for any type of "serious" office work.
In the UK they are colloquially referred to as dustbins. My local council formally refers to them as rubbish bins and their contents as rubbish or waste [0]. The term wheelie bin is used when they do in fact have wheels (ours don't). Very few Brits would call them trash bins or trash cans.
