Chappelle is an interesting example here. He was doing standup on TV and staring in a Mel Brooks movie before he turned 20. But he also wasn't an overnight success. He supposedly started standup at 14 and spent years honing his craft before most comedians even start their career.

Most comics I have heard talk about it say a person needs to do standup for 5-10 years before even naturally funny people actually become good at it. There is much more to it than just being a funny person.

I feel that AR/VR are a very interesting intersection of medicine, biology, mathematics and physics. Given you actually work in the industry, what is your experience in this regard? Do people have to have some knowledge in all these fields, or do you rather have strongly focused specialists in each who then collaborate?

E.g. you clearly need some biology/medical knowhow to be able to diagnose various problems that arise in the human part of the system, no?
It's really really not, that's just bs they feed people so they don't need to fix their broken systems.
What solution wouldn't require its own specification + quirks? Whether its a Dockerfile or nix package I don't see the difference besides people tend to be familiar with only 1 of the many options.

Im not comparing whether Dockerfiles or buildpacks or nix packages are more ergonomic than one another but i do think your comment is...misguided. From what I have heard Nix is pretty wonderful to use and simplifies the problem - it just requires you learn about Nix a bit which i think is a fair trade-off for the benefits it supposedly provides

I disagree with you but I'm not sure why you were downvoted.
Thanks for the reply.

I do use magit, daily, and I really enjoy it. I think what I don't understand about the OP's point is that, why is that the shells problem? Tar is a utility that works great, and is typically pretty easy to use on the CLI. If however, I don't particularly like it, or would rather use a GUI that's totally understandable.

The OP could even implement one in elisp for emacs.

I guess my thought is that, why is the burden on the author of this magical new shell to write a piece of software that can GUIfy tar, than the user of tar who doesn't like it's ergonomics? Maybe that's not what the author is saying, but to me it just seems like something not really related to the shell, or a discussion on shells.

If you like using GUIs, find a GUI for tar, or write one. I don't say that to be flippant, but more to reiterate my misunderstanding of how this relates to a discussion on shells.

The other part is, what do the Apple subscription cover in terms of platforms?

e.g.: If I can pay for say Guardian subscription either:

1. via their website/app and use it on iPhone, android, PC, etc; or

2. Pay for same subscription via Apple subscription and ONLY have it on my iPhone

- that's a HUGE diff, and one that I have been extremely peeved off to discover in the past :-/. It only took one such experience to permanently sour me on Apply subscriptions.

>Has the government been encouraging people to take vitamin D, get fresh air, exercise, and get to a healthy weight?

The government has been advocating for exercise and general health for decades. Despite this, we remain one of the least fit countries in the world. If the government cannot convince someone to take a safe, free shot that might save their lives, how can you reasonably expect them to convince someone to exercise?

This used to be the case with NYTimes, several years ago. But, I think it has improved. Same horrible experience, a few years ago. Then, I resubbed after a couple years. A few months ago, NYTimes ran an article on "dark patterns." So, I attempted to unsub -- it was much easier.

But, that is only the NYTimes. My guess is that the original hypothesis holds true for others; I doubt JFax has improved.
I have no idea if it is good for anyone else, but I've had a lot of luck using "build your own wiki" tools, and specifically Obsidian.

I feel like when I'm learning about a subject I'm not super familiar with, it can feel like "drinking from a fire-hose". There's a million different proper nouns that you have to learn, and each one can be a rabbit hole in itself. I feel like with Obsidian/Roam/Logseq/Athens, it helps me focus on the high-level and drill down on tasks as I grow more familiar with the subject. It also creates, in my opinion, extremely easy-to-read notes later, more or less like I'm just reading through Wikipedia.

I don't think it's for everyone, I couldn't get my wife using it, but I genuinely do believe it has helped my knowledge-gathering a lot.

In regards to your second question, if you had asked me three years ago, I would have said videos, but honestly as I've gotten older, I don't think I have enough patience for them anymore, and generally prefer books for conceptual stuff, and articles for practical stuff. Videos are often way too slow, and I end up having to listen to it at 2x speed anyway.

The exception to that is if I'm trying to learn something somewhat interactive (e.g. how to use Blender or something).

Really cool to see advances/research in foveated display techniques.

Simula's Portable Linux VR headset (www.simulavr.com) is planning on having a rudimentary eye tracking/foveated rendering system.

One of the most important long-term barriers to widespread VR adoption for office work/programming is matching & surpassing the quality of what can be displayed on traditional (e.g.) 4K monitors. It's hard to justify spending 14 hours a day working in a VR headset when the text quality is visibly less sharp than comparable traditional screens. Advances need to be made.
I don't think that's an unpopular opinion. It's more of an unfortunate truth.

It doesn't work like that. Friction destroys revenues, large companies can remove friction by having their portfolio of users with credit cards collected. Small devs cannot do that because the user will need to enter payment details each time. The best chance would be to use something like Paypal, which is again a huge friction since the user will need to switch apps or enter login information.

As a result, unless you are a huge publisher you don't actually have a realistic chance to sell over alternate low-cost methods. This is not because you can't put the code there but because it will make the user experience so bad that a fraction of your users will proceed.

It's not about being technically possible but it's about being feasible. It doesn't matter that you can technically do it if not enough people want to play along and deal with it.
Containers solve the problem of clashing library versions needed by different applications running on a single host (and I know there are other ways to solve this).

This is really not a new problem :) I remeber dealing with shared libary versioning issues from no long after I started in IT in the 90's and it's been a problem since.

Solving that problem seems like a win to me.
Its similar for CISOs and other exec positions.

Just look at some of the large breaches that happened like 5 years ago and where the CISOs of these companies work for now.

Breaches typically help them improve their profile and career in the long run (maybe you get to even speak in front of congrees) - it's very odd.

I think it has todo with people thinking, oh ,this person has seen some bad stuff - so the person must be experienced. Rather than maybe question if the root cause of the bad stuff (like a breach) was actually an incompetent exec.

> 43 With respect to the appropriateness of Peely's "dress," the Court understood Apple merely to be "dressing" Peely in a tuxedo for federal court, as jest to reflect the general solemnity of a federal court proceeding. As Mr. Weissinger later remarket, and with which the court agrees, Peely is "just a banana man," additional attire was not necessary but informative. Trial Tr. (Weissinger) 1443:17.
I suppose that would only happen if Apple were very uncompetitive in price. In the example above, the options would be equivalent to the company if Apple only dropped their cut to 25% and the competition was free.

Assume Apple dropped to 15% and the competition was 10% - then it would be 9.99 IAP, 9.63 on Amaozon/Stripe/Netflix, which probably wouldn't be worth the consumer confusion.

I've read the doc like 10 times. I think there are two key takeaways.

First, Apple can't stop companies like Epic from including links to other payment tools. Practically speaking, that means things like Kindle can now have a "Purchase on Amazon.com" button (which it currently does not have in order to avoid the 30% cut).

Second, the App Store itself is a-okay. Apple does not need to allow side loading or a second App Store.

Analysis from me: it's a win for Apple. They get to keep their App Store, which would be tremendously bad for them if they were forced to allow alternatives. There will be revenue loss from in-app purchases that are done via external links now, but Apple's own mechanisms are likely to continue being the easiest and most seamless, so that revenue stream will hardly go to $0.

"less likely" is bureaucratic weasel language which could encompass a percentage reduction anywhere from 1 to 99 percent. But what the CDC specifically said in the Provincetown study is that "vaccinated individuals infected with delta may be able to transmit the virus as easily as those who are unvaccinated." https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/07/29/cdc-mask-gu...

Also from that article:
> The breakthrough cases are to be expected, the CDC briefing states, and will probably rise as a proportion of all cases because there are so many more people vaccinated now. This echoes data seen from studies in other countries, including highly vaccinated Singapore, where 75 percent of new infections reportedly occur in people who are partially and fully vaccinated.
The advancement of this proposal has been stalled for many years because there were two competing proposals. The winning proposal was with the Hack style pipelines, which won over the F# style pipelines. This decision is highly controversial as you can see if you look at the issue threads. One issue thread[1] got over 250 comments before it was closed as too heated.

In my opinion the wrong proposal was advanced. And I find it very curios why this was advanced given how the lack of resolution. I’ve been following this proposal for a very long time and this feels like the committee went behind the community to make an executive decision based on their own believes.

mRNA vaccines do not directly stimulate the immune system. They cause the immune system itself to create protein structures that stimulate the immune system.

The definition change is simply to more accurately include this vaccine method.
I believe this will cause managing subscriptions to be a lot harder and untrustworthy. I will probably have to sign up for different payment systems I never heard of… the store won’t be able to track when subscriptions expire, and this will open up so much room for fraudulent behavior.
It's not an essay. It's a book review.

But since you seem to think Joyce is old hat, why would you expect him to appear in every essay about Dublin?

I live in Dublin so I'm vaguely aware of the status of Joyce—actually I went to the same school he did. Dublin is small (and boring!) but it's big enough that there are things to talk about other than Joyce.
No. Magic Leap succeeded in delivering a technically impressive AR experience with multiple (2) focal planes. Their failure was in not realizing that the overall experience wouldn't be useful enough to build a business with enough revenue to support the development cost. That's due to a combination of factors like low brightness, small FOV, weight, cost, and difficulty of developing world/object tracking for compelling AR apps.

Also Microsoft totally stole their thunder with Hololens coming out first.

You do not pull schemas dynamically. Schemalocation beyond editors is a pure theory thing. It is not default, it cannot be fast. Any serious developer has the schemas as files in their code when checking the data for compliance.

Basically, in a static typed language you decide for schema checking or not - like for Json -, serializing in structures or access in an API - like for Json.

It is just that JavaScript maps json directly in their dynamic object, array and native types. For xml that is an mismatch. For static languages both are an mismatch.
Many apps already have non-Apple-taxed pricing. So they can just keep price consistency without losing 30%.

There's no guarantee that anyone's premiums would actually go down. Instead, you might find people that thought their premiums would go down actually go up because of this. After all, we're talking about insurance companies who are the poster child for fucking over their customers. Giving someone this much visibility surely means they could find something to justify a premium increase.

I would never voluntarily submit data to insurance like this. It's a suckers bet.

Ah, thank you so much for linking "One Second After." I had seen someone recommend this book on HN previously but had lost track of the comment and the title of the book.
Or to paraphrase Beer:

The utility of a model is what it describes.
I did follow the trial, and actually probably commented on that exact compromise hint at the time (although I'd need to look over my comment history to know for sure).

I didn't read a "compromise" as indicating that an injunction was particularly likely, and most of the commentary I read on HN at that time didn't read it that way either.

I think people are looking back with the benefit of hindsight at something that was not by any means a generally assumed outcome, even from people who were covering and talking about the trial on HN itself or on other social media sites I followed.

A hint that the judge is curious about finding middle grounds in a lawsuit is definitely not a promise of a permanent injunction.

I was going to say impossible, reasoning from how I understand your eye's lens to focus. But that doesn't rule out the possibility of it working if out-of-focus. If you look at a small point light source and let your eyes go out of focus, the light smears to a larger range. The shape and texturing of that range depend upon the light source: for example search for bokeh shots during a partial solar eclipse. This should be emulatable with a small projector.

However the size up of the image should be no bigger than what you see when you let your eyes go out of focus, which isn't really that much. And you'd have to find a way to make your eyes want to focus like that, which could be tricky.
Sure, just type what you need to know, an idea for how to look at it and start playing.

The play part is how i get it. eg. Writing python code to generate exponents... Oh now i get why exponents loop under modulo!
> some people got exposed as promoting white nationalism but then they were called white supremacists in all the reporting

Is the difference enough to warrant a distinction? Merriam Webster doesn’t bother to make one.

The definition of white supremacist is quite clear:

> “supporting the belief that white people constitute a superior race, typically to the exclusion or detriment of other racial and ethnic groups.”

There’s nothing that necessitates actively claiming the belief. After all, Jim Crow laws were enforced under the guise of separate but equal, but nobody would say they weren’t white supremacist.

To a natural paternalist, the desire for autonomy doesn't make any sense. Regardless of the existential value of 'spite' to your family member, the issue of whether something is legal or not is bigger than 'spite' to those who value rule by law. They are not so ready to trade their legal standing for supposed safety. If you give up your rights so readily it shows how little value they have for you. Don't expect the government to care about them more than you do.

Todoist, asana, Evernote, trello, etc etc. For a certain segment of society, services like these are perennially in demand, and there's always a new one promising a new twist that will actually keep you using it and transform your life.

Part of the ubiquitous demand for these services is because they're very useful, and partially it's because of how many people are sold on "productivity porn" and the idea that you can organize yourself out of being overwhelmed and ridden with FOMO anxiety (not on my high horse here: I've definitely been there).

I'll bite: I think your friend has a point, I take handwritten notes purely in nested bullets if the topic isn't an active conversation.

That said, this only works up to a point, and I wonder whether most articles could be written in bullets and retain all the "value" of their prose form. Bullets don't cut it if the subject requires the author to address human emotions or impart meaning into their text. This is loosely in opposition to facts, spec sheets, and technical information that does lend itself to hierarchical structures in a way that adds value.

I recognize you might not disagree with any of this, by the way.
What’s marissa doing these days after running yahoo into the ground? Somewhere else satisfying a quota?
It still costs Apple money to run the App Store.

Since many developers will now be able to opt out of payments through Apple and Apple will lose that revenue, I foresee Apple changing the terms of service for developers so they can get revenue by some other means not affected by this ruling.

Would Apple charge developers based on the number of downloads / installs of the developers' apps?

What other ways might Apple make up for the lost revenue?
Thank you. That’s a worthwhile distinction to make. I often hear the word “modern” bandied about by developers trying to advocate for something novel. If you haven’t already it might be rewarding to fully articulate this in long form, including the consequences and implications. I wish I was a better writer or I’d write this myself.
When Apple announced it was introducing intentional security vulnerabilities to their Apple Pay platforms last month that was the signal that they were done trying to be a bank. I wonder if that decision was made knowing the likely outcome and downstream results of this case.
Is there anything in the ruling that prevents Apple from requiring all prices be the same or preventing companies from providing extra "value" if their payment processor is utilized?
