Thanks for this information, I’ve been recently going through some jazz solos transcribed by other people and amazed what they are able to pick out.

Regarding your deafness - mind if I ask how you listen to music now and what you will do after your cochlear implantation ?

Also which implant model do you feel is best for music listenability?

My daughter is deaf and recently had her CI surgery. She is very musical, loves singing, dancing, etc. She’s still getting used to the new way of listening post-implantation.
>Currently, Apple employees have popular Slack channels to discuss #fun-dogs (more than 5,000 members)

I can't imagine a channel of that size. Is it an endless flood of text like twitch chat? Are there limited aproved submitters?

We have off topic channels with few hundred members and they are already a mess.

Also, is everyone within Apple in the same Slack team?
Sometimes the truth has a negative impact on people. We just have to live with it.

Don't worry, they won't let you in anyway.

Won't even let their own people in (or out) at the minute.
They don't seem to mention any special treatment for international clients: https://www.fastmail.com/help/ourservice/law-enforcement.htm...
Well, with that tight of a budget the best option would be to find a sponsor tbh.

Just contact local(!) hosting providers and ask if they could sponsor such events. This would mean advertisement for them (maybe even tax deductible depending on the legal status of your organisation) and free resources for you.

I can't think of any kind of on-demand service that will handle 500-1000 concurrent users for 50 hours that's under 100 USD. AWS nano instances are 0.256 USD per user per 50 hours (e.g. your workshop scenario), but that's still above your budget even with 500 users. Basically you'd need to find an on-demand hyperscaler that offers instances with ~1GiB + 1vCPU for less than 0.004 USD/h (500 users) or 0.002 USD/h (1000 users).

Working on providing a simplified local install method (e.g. a docker image or a VM image hosted somewhere cheap) is the only realistic way to stay within your budget.
Ask HN: What's your go-to stack for writing personal tools/apps in 2021?
Suppose you'd like to write some tools just for your own use, to automate tasks or organize personal data. What stack would you use, that's modern and fun, and is not going to disappear in a couple of years?

So far I've been oscillating between Ruby/ActiveRecord, Python/PySide and JS/Electron/Vue/Bootstrap, which are all fine, but not terribly exciting. I'm now looking to migrate my Ruby code to something with a better GUI story, and I thought it'd be a good opportunity to maybe pick up something new.
Right, this is why lawyers are renowned as the fun police. The correct action from the perspective of the interests of the shareholders would be to ban the dog chat and the dad jokes.

The Earth by Hubert Krivine (ISBN:978-1-78168-799-4) does exactly this for the case of the Earths age and motion around the Sun, so that's a start.

If your ambition is a more detailed history of science account of the establishment of the distance ladder (up to some slightly distant point in time, as work is still ongoing, see the famous Hubble tension), try googling for articles about history of science and the distance ladder. That activity gives me this preview that might be interesting: https://www.jstor.org/stable/24536521

On macOS you can always run things in a VirtualBox VM if you're only concerned about Docker Desktop, not Docker itself.

Here's a convenient installer for that:

It does however have some rather annoying limitations. Also no Apple Silicon support.
Neither is a universal need. Plenty of single hermits are perfectly happy hermitting alone.
This is spot on, perfect pitch is something that parents like to brag about. My son Luca is pretty good with picking out polyphonic tunes by ear and more than one person has asked if he has 'perfect pitch' and they are always surprised when I say I don't really care all that much whether he does or not because either he does or he doesn't and what matters most is that he has fun making music (which he does).

There is a similar thing about music theory where people from the IT side tend to approach music as though it is something you cram some theory for and then you can go and make it after you pass your exam. Musicians don't usually care all that much about a particular piece of theory until they need it and then it just gets added to the pile. Other than that they are mostly concerned with making music, not with the theory behind it.
By cancelled here it sounds like you mean fired. Ideally if those people were lying, it should be possible to hold them accountable in court.
You get Teams forced into your taskbar, a news feed that forces you to use Edge and adverts for Microsoft 365 in your start menu! Hooray!
This isn't about labeling.
My response is also not, specifically, about the story.

This is about what is and what is not cancel culture. "Cancel culture" describes a culture, which necessarily exists in a community. It's been around since before the term "pariah" existed. There are cultures where specific acts have the effect of irrevocably excluding you from a community (exile). Now the rumor of an act or thought is, amplified by communication channels, to result in the same stigma.
I also lost many hours and nerves until I figured it out. But it let me get a glimpse on the true and frightening nature of Microsoft.

Okay so step 1: you try to enable forwarding, but the UI gives you an error about some policy that has to be set

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/exchange/recipients-in-exch...

Step 2: you have to find the anti spam settings in a UI called „defender something“ and turn the automatic forwarding polic on.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/security/offi...

Again the UI doesn‘t allow this because some setting in your organisation is disabled.

Step 3: the hard part. This setting can only be disabled through powershell. Google the name of it and you will find some docs about it.

There might be other ways to achieve forwarding. At least it sounds like that in the docs, but then they must be buried deep below the legacy UIs.

Good luck!
Quite simple: The CPU doesn't support that.

You suggest having a line, but as a top-level comment alludes to, there historically has been one and it's right where the author of this article drew it.

Companies have the right in most circumstances to say "no hanging up non-work pamphlets on the bulletin board." But once you allow non-work pamphlets, you can't discriminate against against these types of issues. That, sadly in my view, changed under the Trump NLRB specifically when it came to email (which one could argue slack is similar to). Though it's likely to change again under Democrats.

By the way, in terms of "bullying" it's worth noting that the law protecting the ability of people to talk about workplace conditions using company resources like a bulletin board or slack channel doesn't have to allow for abuse behavior by coworkers. If you're seeking a line, that can be it, and it's based in current law, too.

This final comment isn't aimed at you, but I wish the "anti-cancel culture" activists took this seriously as a free speech issue. This kind of thing is much more common and a bigger deal than a select group of folks who have to rely on substack for their audiences to follow their thoughts.
Always remember that Session is also developed in AU....

Makes me really consider the information I was told about FM.
I'm sure there are many factors. At one point while very sick and homeless, I was coming across like a bipolar person to some degree. I did some research and adjusted my diet to shut that down.

I imagine that poverty and poor diet do all kinds of bad things to the populations that tend to be most at risk of ending up in jail in the US. I have at times fantasized about trying to do something about nutrition in the US prison system as a means of trying to break the cycle, but I'm probably never going to be in a position to do that.

Even the Bible posits that feeding people is the way to promote the peace, basically. Psychological research and firsthand experience suggest that's pretty sound as an approach.

Edit: See discussion here:

I'm not trying to answer your question as I don't know the full extent of this new law, but based purely on the article it's not hard to imagine the AU government can construct a case against a politically subversive but otherwise innocent person by planting illegal data/content on their cloud storage and social media accounts. The fact that they can do this with zero judicial oversight mean that it's not a question of "if" this will happen but "when".
Perhaps the iOS security model is incorrect if it only allows Apple’s store to exist?
>> - the same with social justice: Who else is going to require social justice advocacy other than people who are considered disgusting enough by society to be treated unjustly?

Ehh, maybe there is something I'm not picking up, but there's plenty of bad things happened to people (and are happening right now) that were not justified by any 'disgusting behavior'. Ethnic cleansing for example - something that happened in my country, I do not think that people who lived somewhere for hundreds of years and killed due to some lofty ideas about the 'nation' really deserved that treatment.
I love numeric keypads. I don't have to type in big chunks of numbers very often (OCR and GPIB go a long way) but when I do, numeric pads make me hate life a lot less.
Regarding Australia's limits on protest during the Sydney covid lockdown, one official basically said "people can exercise their freedom of speech other ways, like writing a letter to the newpaper or sending an angry email" (paraphrased). I think he seriously thought these circular-filed complaints carry the same weight as a protesters in front of government buildings.
Stop allowing email providers to control the domain of your email. Buy a $10/year domain and point it at GitHub pages (so it gains some trustworthiness). Send your email to that domain, and point the MX records at a mail provider (Fastmail or GMail or ProtonMail, doesn't matter).

Regardless of what the NLRB thinks, we can have our own opinions. If employees want to talk pay equity, let 'em.
Good thing it's 2021 where opt-in communication at a better level of home visits is a click away (literally, they could have just made a new Slack workspace and used non-work devices to visit it)

Trick question. It's all of them. All the stupid chats are subject to discovery.
It’s adding options to developers, not necessarily to users.

The Apple and Google payment systems were in effect a market driven standards, now we’ll have a soup of systems on a race to the bottom on a very sensitive part of the ecosystem.
The demos are pretty incredible. Multiplayer is increasingly becoming table stakes for productivity software. Croquet's implementation is super-simple.
Apply pay and Google Pay are both handy. I like using Apple Pay now instead of typing credit card number.

Finitism and Physics
Not only that, but if you ever have the option of buying a software license directly from the developer or through the Mac App Store, you usually get much worse terms from the Mac App Store.

You'll pay the same price, but instead of getting a license you can run on unlimited of your own machines, or sometimes a fixed number like you can register it to 3 machines at a time, you can only install it on other computers that are managed by the same iCloud account. I've learned this the hard way with a bunch of productivity apps, if you want to use it on a personal machine and a work machine in the same way you can easily install all the free apps that you use on both machines, you're out of luck if you bought it on the Mac App Store. I've ended up re-buying a few different productivity tools over the years that I made the mistake of buying on the Mac App Store first, so that I actually had a portable license I could use that wasn't tightly coupled to making my personal text messages and iCloud files available on the same computer I want to use the license on. You also can't install mac app store apps via homebrew in a setup script or any kind of tooling you use to manage the computer (maybe this is getting better with shortcuts, but I'm not aware of a way to do it).

If it's a cross-platform app, you pay the same price but lose the ability to ever run it on Windows in the future if you buy it from the app store. If it's one of the few AAA games that support MacOS at all, if you buy on Steam you usually get a cross-platform license and there will often be a bunch of bundles that include extra DLC packs at a discounted price. Once a game is a few years old it will start going on sale all the time on Steam. The mac app store version usually won't go on the same sales and usually doesn't have any bundles available either.

If you have multiple user accounts created on a computer, you can't even upgrade a free app that a different user installed via the Mac App store, even if your user also has admin privileges. Only the same user that originally installed it can upgrade the app even though the app is available to every user on the machine.

There's really no reason to ever install anything from the Mac App Store, other than first-party Apple apps where you have no other choice (like XCode, Garage Band, Keynote, Final Cut, etc.)
New Zealand's (as you describe it) "extreme lockdown" has worked. When dealing with a pandemic you are supposed to limit potential exposure, and their actions did that.

As a result NZ has had one of the lowest infection rates in the world. Also, those actions let them "return to normal" quicker then anywhere else.

It worked.

Perhaps you feel that the mid-evil practice of nailing the doors and windows shut and posting a guard outside of a quarantine house, would be more reasonable? Pray that the village stays safe while the sick were imprisoned?

People were inconvenienced. Nothing more.
Fundamentally Change the Way You Look at Serverless Observability
Yeah I believe it was a relatively recent (~ previous 6 months?) update that allowed for the disabling of remote login.

Source: I disabled remote login on my UDM Pro. Further, they finally patched the Unify Network (iOS) app a couple months later to connect directly to the UDM Pro for management when on the local network instead of always trying the (now non-existent in my case) remote login.
> At launch, readers will get 10 free Wirecutter articles a month before being asked to pay for a subscription. Only a small proportion of Wirecutter’s readership currently reads more than 10 articles a month, said Linda Li, Wirecutter’s general manager. A small percentage of users visit the site more than 50 times a month.

10 articles feels like a pretty lax paywall, especially for something like Wirecutter articles. Anecdotal, but when I go there, I home in on exactly one article, which by its nature is an exhaustive roundup of many products, to do my research on something I’m considering buying. I can’t fathom needing 11 of these per month.
I'm most curious about what they mean by "ADDING" data...

Does this mean the police can create a social media account in your name? Imagine for instance that they suspect one of your family members of tax evasion. Can they create a fake social media account or email account registered to you, and impersonate you for the sake of entrapping someone else? Like hey uncle, love your new car, got any hot accounting tips? I don't even see anything in these laws that says the person whose data they're accessing has to be the target of the investigation.

Imagine if at any time in any chat, even with your partner or parent or child, you couldn't know whether you were actually talking with them or a government agent, perhaps because someone they know is tangentially suspected of a crime - without the matter even being brought before a judge. Terrifying. This is how societies turn into places where everyone is completely fearful of saying anything at all.
Nah. We're not 250 people. We use docker, and we won't stop/switch because of it.

This is such a good problem to have. I would love to cut Docker Inc. a check.

And we've basically moved over to garden (a k8s dev env) anyway. But we still use docker plenty.
> A brief precis: Gravitational collapse limits the amount of energy present in any space-time region. This in turn limits the precision of any measurement or experimental process that takes place in the region. This implies that the class of models of physics which are discrete and finite (finitistic) cannot be excluded experimentally by any realistic process. Note any digital computer simulation of physical phenomena is a finitistic model.

> We conclude that physics (Nature) requires neither infinity nor the continuum. For instance, neither space-time nor the Hilbert space structure of quantum mechanics need be absolutely continuous. This has consequences for the finitist perspective in mathematics -- see excerpt below.
You’re exactly correct here. Our complex isn’t in the greatest area, but it sure was nice to have a dry cleaner right across the street. But in our complex we had a cafeteria and two satellite snack places. They are closed until our building hits a % of capacity as stated in their contract. I feel like there is a big opportunity for food trucks. Maybe use those empty mall parking lots and set up some times for people to grab food, set up outdoor dining.
You are right that's the value add. Not having to worry if the hardware works and having a curated linux (popOS is very much like ubuntu).

I've had a system 76 onyx laptop running popOS for over 2 years now. It keeps itself updated and I'm able to do my tasks with very minimal system configurations. Firmware updates come through fine. I think Linux hardware support is pretty good for a lot of laptops, but for me it was worth the extra money not to have to deal with it.

My system 76 is "Clevo" OEMed machine. Very much evidenced when I let stuff get in the fan and I had to replace it. Parts are available.

As someone who is new to Linux on desktop, it was pretty great. I got Unreal engine compiled, Intelij and It can even use steam. My machine has a Nvidia 1060? so its actually pretty decent for the limited gaming I do.

Like many things, if things go well and this scales up, the additional cost for having staff making sure linux is supported should go down.
As an American's American (Guns and Liberty for everyone!) I really appreciate the French people's intolerance of government overreach. They say no, and they don't sit down.

Walking in Their Footsteps
I recently switched jobs and made sure I wasn't going to get a mac again just because of Docker Desktop. At my last job, we had an application that did some very strange things with the Docker API. It regularly crash or lock up the VM or hit subtle correctness bugs in networking.

I get the problem they are trying to solve is extremely difficult. I don't think I'd do much better trying to seamlessly ship a very Linux-centric API on Mac and Windows. They have my sympathy but that doesn't mean I'll use the product given a choice.
The problem I have with the hash rate as an indicator of anything long-term is that it's artificially subsidized in the present from a diminishing pool of reserve Bitcoin (or inflation, if you prefer to think of it that way). Currently to the tune of about 98-99% of the total block reward[1].

For all the talk of Bitcoin being a long-term asset, there's little evidence that the incentive system can work (i.e. fend off a 51% attack) in its terminal state, or even a couple decades from now when the block reward is ~97% lower than today.
