MacOS is indeed unacceptably insecure. Imagine someone downloads FortniteForMac.app (as in, a fake Fortnite for MacOS download since it's not available except on Windows right now) - that can lead to a keylogger and clipboard watcher beaming your data to some foreign data lake, where it'll soon be used to sign into your Bank (proxying requests to your computer to appear less suspicious, of course).

Seems fair, tourist cargo doesn't rise to the level of "astronaut". It should take more than a huge pile of money to put a person in those ranks.
Yeah no idea. I declare Bezos an astronaut. I believe I have equivalent jurisdiction.
I'm struggling to decide if I should say I care less about what Bezos & Branson do, or about what is "US definition of astronauts", or if I should point out that your comment is countering its purpose of "giving less attention" to what these guys do, or if me answering your comment would be countering the purpose of saying that, or maybe if I should just drop all of that and start talking about how I'm an astronaut, since Earth is in space and I am sometimes kinda demonstrating activities that are essential to public safety during our flight...

I guess I'm saying that both our comments are not very constructive and don't really affect anything. Maybe so is the "news", but it never has been different with the "news", people were talking about stuff like that long before steam engine was invented.
I want to believe you’re wrong and I really don’t think there is a way to say for sure (too many variables) - but there are a lot of red flags.

Nope! Not sure who said it first, but...

If you don't know why some fucked up thing in America is the way it is, the answer is probably racism.

In this case, it's white flight from city centers -> suburbs and racist real-estate practices.

You can see it in what the author was told about Appleton, if you read between the lines:

> he schools are much better in the newer areas, and people shop for school districts more than they shop for a house itself. While Appleton is a very safe little city, crime is always a bigger problem at the core compared to the edges. You have to think of the children.

This isn't about the Sierra Club. It's about the blue cities in general. I've been to transit alternatives infrastructure meetings in Austin, NYC, and SF.

They are all driven by parking spaces and reducing peak traffic. It's absurd to see the very same people who lose their mind at the idea of America dropping out of the Paris Climate Accord, are exactly the same people who think we should impose minimum parking requirements on new buildings, block a bike share and safe bike infrastructure because the bike are ugly and take parking space away, and argue that BRT is terrible and will never work, because they won't use it.
As stated in the other comment, old batteries often physically couldn't handle the voltages required to run at peak performance, so if iPhone detected these conditions, it would temper those peaks so that the phones would stop randomly turning off for people. The issue was that they didn't tell affected device owners that this was happening, and now they do in Settings.
Would it be better to split those companies up with a series of spinoffs so it's actually 1,000 companies, or 1,000,000 smaller companies releasing 71% of global emissions? Or is the number of companies involved in fact completely arbitrary and meaningless?

It's great (have it on my Subaru). It is particularly useful at that wet road or drizzle stage when more water comes from other vehicles than the sky. At that level it might wipe only 3 to 6 times a minute. It certainly removes that over-compensating dry wiping you get without it. I used my older Toyota Land cruiser on a road trip and constantly adjusting the intermittent interval in the drizzle was a pain.
I can't speak for everyone, but I spent an unconscionable amount of time managing dependencies and libraries in C++. In Rust, it's the easiest part of my workflow.

It is precisely the kind of semantic argument that the HN crowd finds interesting, yes.

Worse, quite a lot of people are required to do that and face fines should anything but grass grow in their yard, or nothing grows.

A friend of mine did that sometime back. He just did a stone and ground cover, low maintenance yard. Was kind of awesome. City went full bat shit. Circle the yard that is different and excise the cancer! Needs to be grass, not a garden, not stones, just grass.

It is crazy.

“ sit on the couch watching TV and you're spending almost the same amount of calories as a walking person.”

I recently learned about DDT as a potential culprit. Turns out that the grandchildren of folks who were exposed are significantly predisposed towards obesity, which would be a significant impact today. It doesn't 'cause' obesity, per se, but it's much harder for affected people to keep the weight off. Speaking as somebody who can sit on the couch eating ice cream for a month without gaining a pound, I used to think that diets were silly and vain... turns out I got lucky on the (epi)genetics.
They are not "the same people", though I suspect most meteorologists have a grasp of climate trends. Those are also two very different kinds of prediction. One is like trying to guess the outcome of an individual chess match, with predictions getting better as the time draws near, the other is like noticing that white has a slightly higher chance of winning over the course of very many games.
> so wide in terms of features that you have a hard time keeping up

This is why I like the slightly more walled-in gardens of the JVM and CLR. For instance, when someone is talking about JSON serialization in C#, you could bet your life that they are referring to one of ~2 specific libraries and sets of methods.

It is a lot easier to build a community of shared understanding when everyone is playing the same game every day.

This is completely in line with how the FAA operates with respect to air travel.

They are involved in certification for pilots, crew, and aircraft, but rarely do anything involving passengers. And that's exactly what these wealthy thrill-seekers are -- passengers -- they just happen to be flying aboard a spacecraft. The FAA is not interested in receiving or dealing with a barrage of nominations for "astronaut wings" from hundreds of wealthy thrill-seeking passengers. And honestly, they shouldn't have to.

We don't expect to get FAA designated "aeronaut" wings for flying in an airliner. Why should this be any different?

If you really want a wings pin, I'm sure you'll be able to buy one at the gift shop on your way out.
Ah, my mistake, I was thinking of the attempt in 2012.

Behold, the Facebook Metaverse: https://youtu.be/YlGklt4BSQ8

“WE WILL EFFECTIVELY TRANSITION FROM PEOPLE SEEING US AS PRIMARILY BEING A SOCIAL MEDIA COMPANY TO BEING A METAVERSE COMPANY”

But, Facebook already transitioned to being an advertising company.

The social media aspect became a funnel to direct members towards advertising, changes to Facebook are not about the social aspect, they're about eyeballs on ads and more page views, which are actually distractions away from the social network roots of Facebook.

Mark goes on about building an economy within this metaverse:

"And this is something that I hope eventually millions of people will be working in and creating content for — whether it’s experiences, or spaces, or virtual goods, or virtual clothing, or doing work helping to curate and introduce people to spaces and keep it safe. I just think this is going to be a huge economy and frankly, I think that that needs to exist. This needs to be a rising tide that lifts a lot of boats. We can’t just think about this as a product that we’re building."

I'm obviously very cynical, but this feels like Facebook's app store play: 30% please creators. In addition to the advertising dollars.

What I hope comes out of this is an advancement of the technology for building a "metaverse" and that open source alternatives can keep up, or at least nip at the heels constantly.

Steve Jobs would have never let the TouchBar come to market, if not outright fire the inventor of it. I’m on my second MacBook Air because of how bad is touchbar.
You can take bits and pieces of C++ and never have to swallow the whole thing. I’ve kind of settled on C++11 as having all the tools I’d practically need. It’s got the right balance, IMO. If you’re interviewing somewhere that says they use every feature of the latest C++ in their software, run!

StarCraft's big success and fame came from PvP instead of CPU matches though so it's not super surprising.
Your argument makes a lot of sense. What I don't understand though, is if you share publicly available information, how have you done any harm? How can you have violated sanctions?

Then again if you gave aviation lectures to Al Qaeda after 911, you're definitely doing something wrong, even if it's publicly available information.
Some reasons to be cautious.. and again, this is NOT a financial advice.
Agreed. When my wife was looking to replace her 2013ish Air and comparing M1 Air vs Pro, I told her I'd pay $300 not to have the touch bar.
> As far as I understand, the average person is not deficient in most dietary nutrients

Even one or a few might be enough to cause a problem.

I’d reckon most modern diets are at least deficient in magnesium and potassium. Possibly b vitamins too.
I was going to say exactly this. I’ll add that free state-sponsored daycare would probably do more for minorities than anything college-related ever could.
Uh, indeed one would likely use the word "космонавт" talking about soviet astronauts, and one could claim that "astronaut" is somehow NASA-related since USA was the second country that had astronauts, but the word "astronaut" was introduced in science fiction long before NASA even existed and is not even an English word. So that claim is dubious at best.
> Apple makes money off the App Store.

Yes. That's part of their profit margin. Just as how the PS5 literally sells for less than it costs to make the console[0], Apple doesn't realize all of their profits from iPhone sales until after purchase where they expect a certain dollar figure from their customers to be spend on either their subscription services or via the 30% app store cut.

This is also happening in VR, by the way - the Valve Index is still the top but the Oculus Quest 2 is insanely close to matching the Index in experience, and that's all thanks to how Facebook literally sells that at a loss of $400, since they want $800 for a version without (1) Ads and (2) their cut from Oculus store sales[1].

> It's not the same on MacOS

Exactly, and I think the pricing difference of these devices reflects that (despite the main cost centers, being manufacturing tooling and labor, having largely similar costs for both). If the iOS landscape turned into the MacOS landscape overnight, we'd see a similar jump in cost for the phone thanks to the lost post-sale revenue.

A single university is dropping standardized testing as one of the metrics they use to determine what applicants get into their collages and that's the death of the US as a state?

The history of the US is a history of European oppression. The delinquents you're talking about are the ones who actually want to tell the history as it actually was and not memorialize people who actively mistreated (which is generous phrasing) the descendants of the Americans who live here. In some way I'm sympathetic that we're all collectively "meeting our heroes" and it's not great but it's the truth.
Thank you. I didn't know this. I wouldn't call the process easy, but it's relatively straightforward.
I agree with you, but I think it's too charitable to assume that the goal in this societal conversation is "Getting to the root cause of obesity". Many people would rather ignore any evidence contrary to absolute, individual culpability and commence with the victim-blaming.

Highlighting the remarkably long sentence for “interrupting an official proceeding” actually undermines your argument.
Growing up, I was the oldest of several kids, and my parents had a mostly hands-off approach to letting me grow up. It was mostly great, but my GPA was in the bottom 10% of the school's performers (which the staff would remind my family of quite frequently). Unless your parents are motivated to go the extra mile, proofread everything you write, parse math with their kids and help them read Shakespeare, getting a 4.0 becomes pure mythology. I graduated with a GPA in the low 2s, and a cumulative SAT score in the 1300s. You can draw your own conclusions, but it's moreover an example of how dumb it is to try to position kids on a gradient of success.
You can speak for everyone. C++ dependency management is just...I don't even know where to begin.
You are exactly right. And you make the point so clearly and calmly. Thanks! :)
1 seat or not there is still criteria you're using to decide if the person in that seat is a pilot or not. I have a feeling you wouldn't call the rider of a fully automated single seater Southwest plane a pilot just based on it having 1 seat - it'd be more muddy than that as the true reasons you call the X-15 piloted are more than simple seat count. X-15 case is easier to quickly judge as the pilot still has a ton of flight control but understand there is still deeper criteria you're basing "pilot" or "passenger" on it's just more obvious. Now bringing this back around to the reason planes come up in the first place - who decides if the 3 listed as crew by BO are "crew enough" and would that criteria also block most we called "astronaut" prior to the BO flight. Rocket flights are extremely hands off and automated even compared to other heavily automated vessels these days yet that's not what has triggered the reaction that these folks aren't "true" crew.

Sure, but I think it's more that it seems incredibly rare to write month/day without year in strictly numbers. In almost all cases i would write 15 Jun/15 Jul. I can't think of anytime i would intentionally write 15.06/15.07. We all know this is a global world. We all know conventions vary. We should aim to make things intuitive, not make people guess which convention 06.07 is using.

AP classes aren't an inherent problem if they're providing longer duration intensive study for more advanced students. There is, however, no reason for an external testing industry to validate a student's knowledge in fine grained subject areas. I went through high school before private testing had metasticized into its current form. AP classes had the benefit of a +1 bump in GPA. Nobody was left standing at the gate because of lack of resources.
That was a really good read. I see this happening all over the Tampa Bay area. But I also see the opposite, where once-blighted structures are transformed into beautiful establishments. Grand Cathedral Cigars [1] is one I like to mention, as I have close ties to the area that's been an extremely high crime area for decades. It's turned around quite a bit recently, and seemingly abandoned structures like the old church which Grand Cathedral occupies, are being repurposed rather than torn asunder. There's a running joke about "up and coming neighborhoods" in the Tampa Bay area, but there is visible progress and fewer parking lots being created in place of structure.

Surprised nobody in this thread has brought up the link between obesity and increase in dietary sugar intake. [1] More and more research seems to show that replacing dietary fats with sugars is closely correlated to obesity levels. Most notably, fructose seems to be difficult for the body to metabolize since it has no impact on feelings of satiety. [2]

It's certainly interesting although worth noting that all the animals examined have some close link to human-supplied food. They're all domestic pets, research animals, or rats (although I suppose the rural rats might be less so? They still show weight gain). I admit it would be hard to find something else that would be appropriate, especially given competing factors at play (e.g., the possibility of animals having shorter lifespans over time or evolving to be smaller in response to capture). Still, you'd think if it was something environmental it would show up in animals less dependent on humans for food. Interesting study.
