but this is what apple originally intended, just phones weren't powerful enough at the time.

later firefoxOS did exactly that. and it worked well. its only weak part was the lack of apps in the market.

Linking this here from the other thread, because the above comment cites the actual court documents, which clear up a lot of confusion I'm seeing on this thread. Apple's concession only applies to communications outside of the app using contact information obtained outside of the app. (Which, yes, was somehow disallowed before.)

If your user signed up through the app? Tough luck.

This "concession" only removes a rule that Apple know it never could have defended in court.
Come to Taiwan.

My rent per month is about 336USD (live alone), I spend about 400USD per month on foods, and that's because I'm too lazy to eat out that I basically Ubereat everyday. (If you choose Taipei, the cost would be a bit higher, The point to live in Taipei is the convenience and it's more approachable to newcomers)

There's a lot foreigners in Taiwan, so it won't be much trouble to blend in I guess.

We have a excellent control over the pandemic, we welcome you as long as you respect the rules and are willing to self-discipline (especially in this pandemic).

Here I got a Discord server that a lot of members are foreigners in Taiwan: https://discordapp.com/invite/zFBqpET
It's not fair to be called a side project at this point, it's used to mediate all software on a computing device used by over a billion people
Some more information I got from reading the Preliminary Approval Order

Every iOS app developer is automatically included in the class unless she objects to being included, i.e., requests to be excluded.^1 The entire class is represented by two representative members.^2 They in turn are represented by legal counsel selected by a judge.

The settlement approval is still preliminary. It will remain preliminary for several months and still needs to be finally approved by the court. Any app developer can object to the agreement in the meantime.^3

Unless an app developer requests to be excluded from the class, then if no developers object to the settlement agreement and it is approved, she will be bound by the terms of the agreement.

Unless I am mistaken, it is possible the agreement could, e.g., limit her right to take part in lawsuits against Apple in the future, among other things. Question for the reader: Should an iOS developer/Apple read that agreement. A copy will be published online within the next 45 days.^4

App developers have the next 105 days to request to be excluded from the class and/or object to the agreement as well to the fees to be paid to the lawyers representing the class.

1. "Any person who desires to request exclusion from the Settlement Class must do so by 105 days from the entry of this Preliminary Approval Order, and such request for exclusion shall be in the form of a letter mailed or otherwise delivered to the Settlement Administrator stating that the person wants to be excluded from the Cameron et al. v. Apple Inc., Case No. 4:19-cv-03074-YGR (N.D. Cal.) settlement, and the letter must include the persons name and address,and identify all of the persons Apple Developer Accounts. All persons who submit valid and timely requests for exclusion shall have no rights under the Settlement Agreement, shall not share in the distribution of the settlement funds, and shall not be bound by the final judgments relating to Defendant Apple Inc. entered in the litigation"

"All written objections and supporting papers must (a) clearly identify the case name and number (Donald R. Cameron, et al. v. Apple Inc., Case No. 4:19-cv-03074-YGR), (b) be submitted to the Court either by mailing them to the Class Action Clerk, United States District Court for the Northern District of California, 1301 Clay St, Oakland, CA 94612, or by filing it in person at any location of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California; and (c) be filed or postmarked on or before 105 days from the entry of this Preliminary Approval Order"

2. The two app developers who are acting as class representatives for all iOS app developers are: David R Cameron and Pure Sweat Basketball, Inc.

Is the building still occupied? I hunted for 10 mins not finding anything definitive.
In the 1940s and 1950s radio programs and eventually television shows were sponsored by advertisers. soap operas get their name for being vehicles for soap companies. Off the top of my head Fitch's soap company was a big advertiser in the 40s. Another big advertiser in the forties and fifties was rexall.

I don't know what the return on investment was, I always figured they did it as a way to show that they supported the arts.
You really have a thing about people pointing out when genocide happens. Do you not believe in the Holocaust, dang?

I volunteered at my local food bank. The best part was hearing people’s stories. There is a fairly large class of young people who share a vehicle and camp out, permanently. Many of them moved around to different places and would show up again months later. They seemed happy.

Bit of a tangent but what are you using to learn Hungarian? I've been casually using Duolingo which is decent for picking up vocab and the pronunciations like you mentioned. However I don't like the way it presents the grammar rules at all. Have you found any good guides for learning more about conjugations, word ordering, etc.? I'm interested in learning Hungarian more seriously but would want to find a source I'm confident in first.
It’s open source so you could theoretically pull it out and generalize it… idk if anyone wants to manage that project (seems like a ton of work even for an open source project) but I’m sure it be interesting.
The way I interpret it is that you can email all your free users at the same time, with the below email, but you can't target individuals users and email them one at a time. My guess is what they are trying to avoid is a flow of: user signs up for free account with email => you inbox them saying:

It is hard to comprehend how many of the space-related feats of engineering were accomplished by the Soviet Union. On a trip to the Baikonur Cosmodrome, I was stunned by the size of the test stand for the Energia rocket. It is massive, with numerous support buildings, lighting, pipelines and support vehicles. The amount of poured concrete is mind boggling. This stand was only used once.

The actual launch stand for Energia is similar in scope and it was only used twice. Of course, during the first Energia-Polyus launch, Polyus seperated from Energia, did a 360 degress rotation and burned up in the atmosphere. It is difficult to reconcile this mixture of competence and incompetence.

That seems to be the case yes. The settlement hasn't been approved yet either.
Anecdotally, I've done work with a few medium-sized businesses around updating legacy business critical apps now and in at least one case the app just wouldn't run on Windows 10 at all but worked fine in Wine with no special configuration.

Microsoft appears to have taken a step back from their long-held focus of not breaking things on upgrades.

Granted, these clients should not be using Win9x apps still and hoping for compatibility.
"Work calls for transferring a portion of the building’s weight to bedrock from its existing foundation system. The fix, likened to putting a bumper jack next to a flat tire, relies on drilling and jacking 52 concrete piles—socketed more than 30 ft into the bedrock that starts 220 ft below grade—under the north and west sidewalks. Piles would support a new mat section, known as a collar, tied into the existing mat." - The fix they've halted.

This is just shocking. They gave the Taliban a list of the people who had been literally fighting against them for the last 20 years. And the Afghans, too. Who will protect them? No one. They are walking dead. They will be tortured and killed.
Sure, because the rules are the same for all. No wait, only for those that Apple does not necessarily want to have in its App Store.
Packaging systems such as Flatpak, AppImage, and Snap allow Linux apps to have extensive backward compatibility going forward.

The article ought to do more to distinguish these.

Latent demand: Driving more often because we can now actually get to places when we used to give up trying.

Induced demand: Driving more miles per day because space for the roads pushed each building farther apart over time. Going to larger stores because small nearby stores failed to compete.

Youtube proper does a lot of JS, eg. a view is usually only counted after ~30 seconds[0] and does other things like logging the current timecode so that it can return to that time in case the user clicks off the video and returns to it later[1].

(paraphrasing amyunus) I immediately opened this thread after reading the title. I imagine that having a 9to5 job and kids makes doing nearly anything else impossible.

Expecting a video game or some social media thing I don't know about or care about, I yelled "F'k yeah!" out loud when I got to "www.freeoptionscreener.com". :D

Options trading is one of my deepest "non work related" hobbies. :) Bravo, OP, and I agree, it's hard to find a good screener.

A lot of us are re-inventing the wheel. It feels like every so often I see a post on /r/options or /r/investing of a new screener, because nothing off the shelf (and free) does the job. There's got to be a better way. I don't know what it is, my naive guess would be an open source one, with sufficient data adapters (because we can't legally share the data :P).

I have a long list of moderate to difficult to add features (I'm writing my own screener as well...), but some minor ones: Price slider could scale exponentially, or have the option to do so. Strike slider could be a "moneyness" slider -- the signed difference between the strike and the spot. DTE could be a date/calendar selector. Could be useful to have HV of the underlying as well.

In contrast to other comments, please don't waste your time adding things that explain what a screener is to people who don't already use a screener. There are enough of those out there already.

Again, congrats on shipping!

The OS prevents you from screen recording when a new movie is playing?
You can still use a third party tool to screen record right?
I'm quite curious what the circumstances of that would have been. I looked it up because I thought I was mistaken, but ya: it's nuclear reactor byproduct and itself capaple of being turned into a nuclear weapon (or only some isotopes maybe? Not sure). It also apparently is capable of just starting on fire in open air, is poisonous, radioactive obviously and accumulates in the bones. Sounds like fun stuff.

No, because there is too much money to be made in the living space supply squeeze.
I've wondered the same and what my limited research has said is that the amount of plumbing and other re-structuring that needs to be done to convert an office space into a living space is current cost-prohibitive.

Except steam. That is a piece of commercial software that i really want on my linux. I wasnt sold at first but a few years in and i love Proton. The ability to install the games i love without headaches, even VR title, is imho the biggest development for linux desktop since web browsers.
I primarily have a different perspective on taxes, which adds to the consensus making in this country.

To me, the goal of taxes is not for everyone to resent their neighbors because the levies are not even. The goal of taxes is not to stuff the state’s coffers, as no amount of taxes will balance its budget and what it does collect only pay interest on the stuff it already built. So there is no roads and schools argument to paying an arbitrary “fair share”. The goal of taxes - and this seems to match reality - is to incentivize certain kinds of transactions. If certain kinds of transactions are done throughout the year, the government leaves the remaining earnings that year alone, if they aren't it acts as the steward for a portion of the remaining.

The primary goal of macroeconomic policy for the last decade has been to convince people to move money into shares of more founders, with the hope that the founders spend heavily on goods and services to make their thing work. Velocity of money is more important for the economy’s growth, than the idea of taxes. This entropy of spending is far greater than individual consumers or the monolithic ideas of a government entity spending. This has also been largely unsuccessful, as people simply dont want to give random founders money. So the governments desperate attempt to further incentivize making it happen anyway via a tax exemption is congruent with the idea.
Personally, I wish PWAs were generally better supported so I could skip the Electron bit and could install the same app on my phone. Being a part of the main browser gives better resource handling, better sandboxing that Electron allows but I would prefer most apps didn't have, and access to the extensions I want. Too bad Firefox killed off SSB (site-specific browser) before it even launched.
India hits emission reduction of 28% over 2005 levels against 35% target by 2030
That’s all reasonable analysis if you’re optimizing for shoving people through a space. Most people are trying to go places and do things. The bottleneck isn’t just harming transit completion, it’s harming the whole purpose of being in motion in the first place.
I actually didn't claim it was optimal. I simply disputed the claim that they should pay equal to the damages that could have been caused.

Here is more information. The family highlighted has a couple of disabled and someone who lost their job due to COVID-19. They have an income of 1000 euro per month and offered their landlord 250 euro per month for rent. From 2013 to 2019, rents increased 50% (I think another timeframe should be used since the property market deflated a few years before that) but salaries went down 8%. The Spanish economy decreased by 11% in 2020.

> Currently, it's a major problem

It certainly is an insane amount of feature churn.

But the right perspective might be to look at the impact on end users.

The issue for end users seems to be that they occasionally encounter "web sites" (really web apps) that only work properly with Chrome. This is sort of a bummer for iOS users, but for the most part they seem to get by just fine. Perhaps there will be a tipping point where the "web" becomes unusable from iOS, but it hasn't happened yet.

I consider this a comparable problem to encountering web sites that only worked with Internet Explorer, or Flash, or Silverlight, or Java. Certainly annoying, but not really catastrophic.

Great comment. With added apologies for hijacking, is there any resource you'd recommend with nuggets like the above? Is there any better way to learn than slowly paper trading and testing different things over long time spans? I'm interested in vol trading and dispersion strategies, but the lack of easily available historical data makes it difficult to run experiments.
Why sad?

Most anything else is user hostile. Why that might be, and why it’s popular to support doing those hostile things to users, makes you go ‘hmmm’.

That's assuming the people who own commercial real estate also own a lot of residential real estate, which is not the case.

The actual problem is that it costs an enormous amount of money to retrofit commercial properties as residential.

While the C++ community is largely moving away from OO, the features added to support OO are still in heavy use. For example, std::function is typically implemented by holding a pointer to a templated subclass of a private abstract base class. There's still inheritance and virtual calls and such going on, and that's just not exposed as part of the API.
We may repurpose them as residential, but it won't be soon. Most industries are still expecting a return to near normal.

Even if a lot of people go fully remote, owners of these buildings assume the drop in demand will kill new projects rather than permanently empty out existing properties.

Providing a multitude of different options, for different people, is the opposite of ableist, I'd say.

The point of equality is not to force everyone to do the same thing.

Instead, it is to address different people's concerns, differently, so that everyone can get what they want.
