Next time try Flonase up the nose, much less invasive than a shot into the middle ear.
People put up with it, and we all suffer. Google recently shat out a similarly offensive update to Android TV, so now the only UI on people's $4000 Sony TVs is 1/3 advertisements for stuff the user often doesn't even have access to. Disgraceful.
So who's going to sit in judgment of what is virtuous?
I think advertiser friendly on YouTube typically means much much safer content than NSFW. Content creator’s videos are demonetized for even swearing once or discussing the wrong topic. One example I can think of was a video that was demonetized for saying “thou shall not kill” because YouTube said it involved discussions of killing.
Apple is more concerned with the code your app executes and especially that it does not change after it goes through the review process. From what I understand, they verify this by reviewing the set of system frameworks your app uses during the review process and then periodically checking this against installed versions of your app on users devices.

Downloading remote code from a server is different than downloading UI configuration. The code required for an SDUI implementation is contained within your app and goes through the normal review process.
I've anecedotedly studied how much sleep is the most efficient before writing an exam, throughout the many I've taken at university. This is a bit different than long term rentention though, as my hypothesis was basically "if you think you're screwed for an exam, what's the optimal crammed studying/sleep ratio the night before?"

1. All nighter is never worth it no matter how little material you think you know.

2. If you're semi confident in the exam, prioritize getting a full sleep over a little sleep.

3. If you're not confident in the exam, definitely still aim for at least 5-6 hours of sleep.

That's what I've noticed when it comes down to cram studying, otherwise my performance goes out the window.
I've found shifting my day works really well.

Instead of sleeping at 11/12pm and waking up at 6/7am, sleep at 9pm-ish and be up by 4:30am. It's usually still dark, it's extremely quiet and perfect for study!

Pro tip: a nap in the afternoon really recharges the batteries for another work session.
Apple tolerates this usually. As long as you don‘t send code in binary form, it’s not against the rules afaik. JS code should also be fine.
More likely than unlikely.

> Educated, empowered women with access to family planning facilities have less children if they have any children at all

This has nothing to do with wealth inequality. This does have to do with optimizing for wealth accumulation. Possibly something to do with Quality of Life, wherein children used to improve it comparatively, while now they are more of a risk proposition. For people in poverty, they are a (subsidized) source of income, which is unfortunate.

Try showing up to do anything at all without that southern accent and and without a professed love of jeebus where those accents come from.

This sad story of the unfairness of prejudice somehow inspires not a single tear.
I think you're assuming that documentation is the only way to collaborate. I'm a big fan of talking to people. The outcome of that talking may turn into documentation, but, per my post, it tends to turn into -useful- documentation if it does, which is very different than the company mandated types of documentation, at least in my experience.

A software specific formulation of Goodhart's Law applies here; if documentation is the metric, the organization will prioritize documentation, regardless of its effect on delivery. If working code is the metric, documentation may still happen if it helps to deliver working code.

There have been zero times that mandated documentation felt helpful to me, and was able to be used without massive modification after the fact by anyone else (I remember one project that had their architectural design document v1...and v2. v1 was the mandated "before you build", and v2 was the "we've now built something that works and it is so different that it's easier to start anew than modify v1"); there have been uncountable times that I have chosen to document something that seemed important to share or persist to inform later decisions.
I Asked GPT-3 About Covid-19. Its Responses Shocked Me
> but it also put a dent in the reasoning that the people I'll meet will highly likely be vaccinated due to their age.

Gotta stop thinking in binary terms.

Breakthrough cases happen though. So even if the people you're seeing are vaccinated, if they are unlucky they can still pick up the virus from you, and if they are even more unlucky they can still have a pretty bad infection from it.

Vaccination reduces spread, and reduces severity, but it doesn't just flip those from 1 to 0.

Vaxed you + vaxed them is less risk to them than unvaxed you + vaxed them.
Covid Denialism and Policy Clarifications
People absolutely should be holding cash if, as in the parent’s case, they’re looking for a home to buy :-p

Also, “don’t worry, just look at the monthly payment” is something that should only ever be said by a car salesman.
Interesting. I never thought it was logically sound, and my impression is that the the data has borne that out, basically all along (and that it was quite valuable to have Sweden and New Zealand as the two outlier examples for what it looked like to handle the pandemic especially poorly and especially well). A recent example with some hard numbers:

"Sweden has recorded more COVID-19 cases per capita than most countries so far: Since the start of the pandemic, roughly 11 out of every 100 people in Sweden have been diagnosed with COVID-19, compared with 9.4 out of every 100 in the UK and 7.4 per 100 in Italy. Sweden has also recorded around 145 COVID-19 deaths for every 100,000 people — around three times more than Denmark, eight times more than Finland, and nearly 10 times more than Norway.

Had Sweden implemented tighter rules, experts told Insider, the country might have seen a COVID-19 death toll more similar to those Nordic neighbors."

This is so helpful
I can also do this. I can make my sight go blurry on demand. I didn't realize that my eyes were trembling until someone else watched me doing it and told me so.

It doesn't feel like trembling, it feels more like staring into empty space. I think that's how I discovered this trick; I was trying to train myself to stare into the void.

I'm not affiliated with frame.work, but I read before on an HN thread that they are working on a 15". IIRC it was a "we can't release product details yet but we're not not working on one ;-)"
I was 100% going to get a Framework for linux purposes, and then the Steam Deck was announced. My thought was to dock the Steam Deck when it's development time and then undock it when it's gaming/travel time.

No, since the client apps are different. However, Mullvad has completed several audits, including 2 of their client app:

First true thing I've seen online in months. :)
True, but even beyond world music, as far as I can tell there is no widely accepted academic theory of modern production technique, where note-based harmonic language is secondary to general creativity in sonic landscape. This is a large part of what most people find interesting in music today, that is popular music production for distribution via sound systems, which arguably represents the current pinnacle of evolution in human musical ingenuity.
EDIT: This whole comment is pretty pointless in context. I didn’t read the the thread closely enough. It’s the sort of argument at cross-purposes that makes us all hate internet comments. I’ve left the text in place so readers can see what other people were responding to, but, y’know, I think it’s pretty dumb.

This verges on pedantry in this context. Banks are required to have a certain amount of capital in reserve to make loans (the reserve requirements and capital adequacy ratios set by central banks). Deposits from consumers give the banks the reserve capital they need to make those loans.

Without a way to use the deposits to make money the banks would just as soon not have your money.
Eh, modern PHP is pretty good. Sure the stdlib still has warts but that’s largely due to a reluctance to break compatibility.

Recent versions are plenty fast enough for the majority of web purposes, it does tons of stuff out of the box, it’s share-nothing nature is a good fit for web services, and for a dynamic language it has a surprisingly strong type system.

I worked on the vendor (not auditor) side of accessibility audits, which have similar structural issues as security reports. The amount of latitude individual vendors have in shaping the scope of testing, setting cadence/private review phases, and picking auditors in the first place is stunning, and even though there are public standards (VPAT/WCAG/Section 508/EN 301 549), these degrees of freedom made reports completely incomparable across even vendors with the same commodity software products. Downstream from us, 90% of customers didn't closely scrutinize the contents or quality of the report and just needed it to exist.

The problem is the ultimate consumer[1] of these reports, legal and procurement agents at buying companies, themselves don't care about the actual quality of the report except insofar as it satisfies their own transitive legal/sales requirements, and it's turtles all the way down. This harms users/customers at the end of the day because they don't have time to scrutinize the details of each individual report or have any real power. If we care about the end goal (secure, accessible software), we need for the auditing firms to collaborate we the government, judiciary, and ancillary vendors to tighten standards to include random[2], uniform checks (same auditor, same methodology, multiple vendors at once).

In the US, OSHA designates NRTLs like UL to perform safety testing, which are required everywhere from workplace standards to insurance requirements. In comparison, at least for accessibility, merely having your vendor have any assessment report is likely enough CYA to withstand a legal challenge. I acknowledge the power of recent website lawsuits to use the broader ADA to raise the bar here, but ADA's "enforcement through private lawsuits" enforcement mechanism is spotty and I think won't result in enough structural improvement.

[1] - These reports also serve as PR/marketing, which is probably moreso the case with Mozilla VPN, but in most enterprise software where these assessments are taking place, the marketing side is very much a secondary goal compared to the individual legal/sales relationship that hinges on the report.

[2] - I think removing the opportunity for vendors to fine-tune scope or prepare or respond to concerns (at least until the next review cycle) is a big step in the right direction, but unfortunately, the legal climate is very much all-or-nothing and not good at nuance. Section 508 (I'm not personally familiar with PCI/SOX/etc. but suspect those are similar) is formally speaking "all or nothing" check all the boxes things, and in that climate, good random audits will basically be always-failing, and if you make too hard a standard that even reasonable vendors can't meet with an earnest effort, you'll end up constricting the market into a meta-game of who can hack the auditing process. See federal government procurement.
This is an invisible advantage that Apple has. Because Macs don't have a long tail of combinations of hardware, BIOS, firmware, etc they can actually recognize bugs and acknowledge them. This gives a better customer experience.
With enough training and practice, I do believe that most people can accomplish quite a lot. Will that trained person be as good as a naturally gifted person? It depends on if the "gifted" person "wastes" their ability or is also training as well. If someone can hear a 440Hz tone, and state that it is an A, then that's pretty damn good and in 99.9999% of the time good enough. If they hear a 439Hz tone and also call that an A, then that's pretty damn good as well. For the rare person that could say that it's 1Hz off, then sure, that's even better, but there's always someone out there better. The person that wins the silver metal at the Olympics but lost by 0.01 seconds is still a really damn good athlete.

So I'm not arguing someone can train themselves to be perfect pitch, but in all practical purposes it's close enough. If you can pin point the specific player in a group that is off pitch, it is still impressive. Does the person that can detect the 1Hz difference bring any more benefit than the person that says 439Hz and 440Hz is the same note? If it does and you're depending on a human for that level of accuracy, I'd suggest you're barking up the wrong tree and should be using intstrumentation for that.
Sorry I'm just too comfortable in my world of US and UK corporate media to be able to see the facts any other way.

Cheers!
This reminds me of a debate we're having in Sweden presently around architecture. Most contemporary architects seem to prefer buildings as big concrete blocks while most "common folk" would prefer something... less modern? A perfect example is the new art museum which you can see here https://www.svd.se/liljevalchs-tillbyggnad--ett-bankvalv-for.... I personally find it revolting, but am I then the person without taste?
Bitwig is a fantastically fun program, and it absolutely scratches my music-making urge from time to time.

But it's not a very productive program. Despite it's feature-richness and insane extensibility, the workflow it provides is somehow more grating for me than other programs like Ableton Live or FL Studio. All of the technical cruft that went into making it slowly caught up with it, like writing the entire thing in Java or having an inflexible UI toolkit.

So, I don't really know if this is a universal truth. Fun tools are fun, but not necessarily superior.
FWIW, Intel has been forcing manufacturers hand when it comes to thickness. Since their high performance laptop processors have stagnated on the last decade, they've created programs to encourage thin laptops.

Both the old "Intel Ultrabook" and the new "Intel Evo" tightly restrict thickness in the 12-14" laptop segment.

I won't give Lenovo a free pass, but it's part of why keytravel and cooling solutions are pretty awful in modern small laptops.
Svelte [1] is a framework that's all about trying to make interactivity viz. JS a lighter process. It pre-compiles all the code so there's no shadow DOM or similar stuff going on.

This is exactly the opposite of paternalistic government intervention. If the money can’t be put to productive use then the bank can’t profit from holding your money and they’d just as soon not have it. If you insist on giving it to them anyways they charge you for the privilege.
Twitter Launches Super Follows on iOS
Pretty disturbing to see this comment from Takeda and Moderna: “Stainless steel is routinely used in heart valves, joint replacements and metal sutures and staples. As such, it is not expected that injection of the particles identified in these lots in Japan would result in increased medical risk.”

Do they think that most people are too stupid to realize that injected particles are very different from a stationary heart valve?

A laptop that is super modular and upgradeable really doesn't seem revolutionary to you?

Before any exam, I had a simple rule: I don't study after 6pm the night before.

Instead, I get a good book, or a movie I've been looking forward to, and I veg out and relax.

This always lead to a good night's sleep and a better exam result than if I'd stayed up late studying instead, hoping to learn just one more thing- that I would never remember due to lack of good sleep anyway.
> Not only did Google not write Fucshia in Go, they explicitly made it a forbidden language

It's more correct to say that they attempted to write part of Fuchsia in Go, but the results performed so badly that they decided it would need to be rewritten in another language.

Just as Microsoft once made a good faith effort to rewrite Windows in C# (Longhorn) before that effort had to be abandoned.
Well we do have "comments" that are actually interpreted by tooling.
I've meant platform UI changes, like when iOS changes how button looks from version to version etc.
Personally, my heart & chest are still recovering from the second Pfizer shot, after having ECG, bloodwork and nearly going to the ER. Wont be getting a booster, thats for damned certain.

I suspect the number to be significantly higher than whats reported.
I have done work on compiler, developer tooling and a lot of other stuff people would consider 'compilated' and working on those was far less complex than some business logic in API's I have had to work upon.

So if the experienced developers writing Deno are using Rust for type safety etc to catch their mistakes, then why would you trust yourself to use a less strict lanaguage on a likely more complex project?
This feels like a Firefox moment.

Microsoft should buy this company right now.

This laptop is amazing. I'm only taking a first look at this now after seeing this product on the HN home page a few times.

The modularity and repairability.

And it runs Windows...

The modularity of expansion ports could be huge for travelers, executives, high-end users, and for consumers that want more options and more control over port combinations.

But this needs the backing of a large tech company to change the market fast enough to avoid getting squeezed out by Dell, Asus, and other large manufacturers.

If Microsoft is smart, they buy this company and bet billions to expand marketing, manufacturing, and logistics.

Also, knowing that a tech giant is backing the product for long-term customer support, etc. will help enterprises adopt the product.
