From what I’ve heard from doctors, xr is equivalent two doses released into your body, its not a steady state release as you might expect. Its basically one ir and another ir wrapped in a package that takes a few hours for your body to digest. So if you don’t really have issues with timing and xr costs you more money then ir is totally equivalent and ok to use.
If it feels different, then it might be manufacturing differences. To really determine the difference you would need to get it from the same manufacturer for both the xr and ir versions. Which doesn’t surprise me after listening to a podcast about a book called bottle of lies.
What kinds of changes? Operating systems are also feature-complete and don't need that yearly release cycle. They only need updating if there are new hardware capabilities that need to be exposed to applications. And security patches don't change APIs.
I've been feeling this with Evernote. The latest versions are so slow and unstable that I'm considering other products.

> The bigger problem is that nobody wanted to work on someone else's codebase. Everyone wanted to work on greenfield projects and technologies that would look good on their resume going into the next job. Some of the most talented developers we hired were obviously only interested in using our company as a stepping stone to FAANG jobs (which didn't actually pay much more, but they were more prestigious on a resume so they wanted to switch).

This isn’t actually the developers’ fault, either. I think we need to blame the tech industry as a whole for this.
Phrases like AI and big data are already pretty well defined in almost every major machine translation set. You'd have to forcefully try to thesaurus your way through to make it do that 99% of the time.
Yes, it unambiguously translates to one male. That question is easy. A literal translation would be something like "the Elements guy".

But it doesn't mean the author was one male. Lots of texts have attributed authorship. The Homeric Hymns are attributed to "Homer". The Gospel of Luke is attributed to "Luke".

It sounds great in theory, but I am not convinced that it brings anything significantly new to the table yet. I am still looking for backend applications in wasm outside of envoy proxy.

Lua pretty much does everything (minus polyglot) that wasm claims to do and has a good dev tooling system. It ll be a lot more enticing, if I could write lambda functions/serverless computing right of the bat with wasm alone.

Not intending to chauvinistic/nationalistic! Most of my favorite artists these days are non-Australian. I was just pointing out a notable historical phenomenon. As someone else pointed out, UK had Top of the Pops from the 60s, hence a lot of the UK acts also doing artistic videos, whereas US artists were generally just doing recorded live performances at the beginning.
Most of California’s forests are managed by the Interior Department. Why wasn’t federal forest policy changed if the last administration believed that was the primary cause of fires?
The former president was very inarticulate about it, which I'd say was the problem. He told us California residents that we needed to sweep our forests and didn't acknowledge that the majority of the public forests were the responsibility of the Federal Govt. A more knowledgeable Republican president could have made a better case that wouldn't get ridiculed.

Trump blames California for wildfires, tells state 'you gotta clean your floors'

https://www.politico.com/states/california/story/2020/08/20/...

Trump's suggestions have prompted head-scratching from experts who say his prescriptions — more raking, less water released into the ocean for environmental purposes — suggest he does not understand the science of wildfires. Critics also point out that most of California’s wildlands are federally managed.

The "legal" section talks about local scanning, and possible transmission of CSAM from devices to Apple, in pursuit of verification, however Apple have made clear that the scanning happens only for files that have been uploaded to iCloud Photo Library -- in which case they are not deliberately transmitting the CSAM but rather flagging something which the user already sent them.

Likewise the copyright issue; The user has already sent these files to Apple themselves by enabling iCloud photo library, and Apple are not making any additional copies that I am aware of.

It also says "The problem is that you don't know which pictures will be sent to Apple." - but we do know exactly which pictures will and will not be sent to apple; the ones that are already sent by iCloud Photo library.

[To be clear, I don't like the precedent/slippery slope that this kind of technique might lead towards in the future, but it doesn't seem like all the criticisms of it today are valid]

Strictly speaking, Jet-A fuel is a kind of diesel with more restrictive specifications, mainly a much lower freezing point, and higher price. I.e., you could sell jet-A fuel as diesel, if you wanted (subject to sulfur restrictions, many places). You could, similarly, sell diesel as kerosene, for most uses, although some would need a lower freezing point.

Diesel is the more familiar term, for most people because they see a hose for it at the gas station. Few encounter kerosene, as such, anymore.

There was a bunch of it at the beginning of legalization in Canada I remember reading about.

It took forever to get supply. Then you had to be an "established" medical marijuana provider to get pre-approved which locked out the "little people" to start. Then there weren't enough approvals of the supply because the procedures were so involved. Then there weren't enough people to approve the paperwork even when it was finished. Then there were local vs federal issues.

In all, it was the standard gigantic bureaucratic clusterfuck, with the added problem of large incumbents dragging their feet and throwing grit into the gears of anyone trying to fix it.

Someone better versed with Canadian politics would probably be better at pinpointing it all because it wasn't just one single thing. It was a slow-motion train wreck.

While internally I nod my head and 'agree' that all the above points must be true, the lack of voices on why we have such seemingly random UI changes bothers me on this subject.

There must be tens of thousands, if not higher, of UI/UX designers, and while I struggle a little to believe that Product Management is in such a sorry shape that PMs feel the need to change for the sake of change, it's harder for me to believe that we don't hear more complaints/post-mortems from the UI/UX devs out there. Surely not everyone is under some iron-clad NDA or is so afraid of their employer they won't even try with some throwaway accounts to tell the story of Management's lust for changing UI...

The sad (specious) conclusion I reach is that UI/UX changes that seem bad probably have far more thought put into complaint articles than the UI/UX/PM team ever had with the change in the first place. Whatever the motivation or justification is, seems the real reason for a lot of the changes from such softwares is 'what're the users going to do about it?', in most cases, the company already has their money...why care if you already recouped the on-boarding cost and then some?

But again, just speculation.
Does California not have a role there? Or perhaps the suit should be against the federal government then, or both, but something needs to change. It doesn’t have to be this way.
Yeah, as usual I'm worried the people who claim that others don't read are the ones not reading (or being able to comprehend) what the author is trying to say. To me it seems like moderation in general is fine. What Apple is doing here is that after they receive a flag that a certain threshold is crossed, they manually review the material. The author states that no one should do that i.e., the law explicitly prohibits anyone even trying to verify. If you suspect CP, you got to forward it to NCMEC and be done with that.

I 100% understand why Apple doesn't want to do that - automatic forwarding - they're clearly worried about false positives. I also think Apple has competent lawyers. It's entirely possible that the author and their lawyers' interpretation could be wrong (a possibility).

Point is - the author isn't trying to say moderation is illegal.

May be the fundamental problem is that since the app _can_ change every time its boots (it being electron based shell with dynamic loading of JS & all), the UX team gets compelled to tweak, experiment, iterate when there is no particular need.

Yeah, “numerator” should be “measure” and denominator should be “universe of analysis”, but the criticism was coherent even with the terminological errors.

You’ve got the median of an undercount of revenue, across a population padded with an unknown number of not-actively-used accounts, each of which, on its own, would result in an artificially low result compared to the actual value of interest.

The issue that I see with all the tie break resolutions is that you end up deciding the outcome of the game, based on something other than playing the game. Rapid chess isn’t classical chess. It’s a different game, with different strategies, and players are rated differently between the two formats. 8v8 soccer would be similar in this respect.

This is simply the nature of games where you need a decisive advantage to turn a draw into a victory. In high level chess you need a decisive material advantage to win, and in soccer, a game where both teams scoring 0 points isn’t uncommon, you also need a somewhat decisive advantage to win.

But these are also both games that are very simple and well balanced. I think they’re better without additional complications, and the best solution is simply to extend play. In the 1984 chess championship I mentioned, the match was abandoned by the organisers. Karpov and Kasparov were both happy to continue playing for another 5 months if that’s what was required.

Totally agree on the first point. The drawing images are really silly. And the website content is empty. OP should learn how to write website content from competitors.
And then they reversed their censorship. It's hard to make perfect decisions in real time. The information got out there, it was bogus, and they faced criticism for doing it in the first place.

So they chose to eliminate its effect on the election based (I would assume) on the bogus stuff about Hillary's email server four years earlier. And if this is the end of October surprises I can only say good riddance, but it probably won't be.

Try walking a mile in their shoes before holding them accountable to infallible behavior is my only suggestion here.

We're going to have to disagree about a first amendment friendly platform. I'm a huge fan of letting the marketplace of ideas work these things out lawsuits and all. I 100% expect a dumpster fire every single time, but then most tech companies end up dumpster fires anyway so why not? There's probably some epsilon incremental revenue pulling this off and capturing the single digit percentage audience that demands these things, no?

No one is disputing it's within their rights. It's within their rights to add a feature to the library that blasts "Caramelldansen" through the nearest Chromecast device when you import it, too.

I huge non-tech company, manufacturing company. Our software that is perfectly stable and have no new business requirements fall in this bucket.

There's 2 scenarios
1) The entire dev team truly does move on...and the operations are in charge of the production app (they're in charge, anyways). There's no code changes...just OS, database security patching etc. If there are any code changes for security (i.e. upgrading Struts because Equifax got hacked...) then the business side that owns the app gets some resources. But otherwise it really isn't touched. It does cause some contention because no dev wants to be pulled in to work on those junk. But in the last few years, we have teams who's only job is to work on this kind of stuff. They work on apps that only need a dev team for a few months.

2) A stable app is part of a team. The team doesn't work on it anymore...For example my team previously owned ~8 systems. I think like 6 were mature where it had no new features. A lot of people actually left to other teams because of that - which is an issue in itself. What good dev would hang around? And when a new app or major feature is needed...you're left with stranglers and junior engineers who need to somehow step up.

> I hope people will use Spotify as a case study in how to fuck up a UI over time.

Similarly with the Google Play to Youtube Music transition. Play was so clean, snappy, and intuitive. Youtube Music is similar to what you describe of Spotify where everything is buried, busy layout, and nothing is intuitive.
It's very encouraging to see languages still putting thought into using pipes. It is one of the most stable APIs in my experience, and the least finicky to set up.

There's a reason they always promote the most extreme cases to restrict liberty:

> Everyone wanted to work on greenfield projects and technologies that would look good on their resume going into the next job.

Greenfield = easy. Fixing a 10 year old architectural mistake = hard.

Resume driven development and product managers who make changes for the sake of their own resume are two sides of the same coin. It's all putting good for yourself over good for your customer and good for your employer.
The parent post to mine was theorizing that the reason the English was so mangled was because it had been translated from English, then back to English. I was replying that, if the researchers didn't use English as a first language, it's ridiculously more likely that they were translating from their native tongue into English. You're misunderstanding where the notion of translating it twice came from.

And sure, there are reasons to translate a phrase from English, to another language, and back to English. This will be familiar to most people who've studied abroad, or done technical conferences on foreign soil, things of that nature. Let's say you're from Bolivia, attending a lecture at an English university, and are planning on referencing some of the content in a paper you're writing, in English. You speak passable English. The lecturer gets into the meat of the topic, and you realize you don't quite understand the context of what they're saying. Some of the conjugations are unfamiliar, so you just write it down as best you can and move on. Later, when writing the paper, you need a way to untangle the phrasing. A simple way is to put it into a translation application, translate to Bolivian, then try to parse it in native tongue. However, you know you have to explain and discuss this section in English; by translating it back, you'll get the English words, but some of the context and grammar structure will be from familiar Bolivian.

So yeah, never say never.
