There's a difference between being a streaming service and licensing audio for commercial products. Having Apple Music available somewhere doesn't have any bearing on whether the audio is licensed in a region for other uses.
> I can't say whether the vaccine is safe for those who have already been infected the drug companies excluded those people from trials. Do you see what I'm saying here?

Except we now have data from the population itself, including people previously infected with COVID-19. We therefore do know it is safe. I think what you're saying is that you want to ignore inconvenient data and use outdated arguments.

> Its always been "no you prove to me that it is safe".

You could have made that argument at one point, but you cannot now. We have enough population level data to call it safe beyond the studies that also showed that it was safe. It is baseless.
idk I think you have to think differently. It's a game that you play. No one cares about your problems or quirks on an interview. Think of what they want to make a decision and be that...respectful, courteous, helpful, excited...then slowly be yourself as appropriate AFTER you get in as they'll be invested in you to be more accommodating. They may even celebrate your unique personality after getting to know you, even if its a little darker than others.
This won't stop people who disrespect the license or personally insult the developers [indeed, it's bound to cause a whole lot if it! I hope we can do better in this thread], but it will have a negative effect on contributions. I wish the developers well, and don't have a _different_ constructive action to suggest (legally pursuing infringers is a slow, expensive, and uncertain game), but I am not optimistic that this is a good choice or good for the long-term health of the project.

I can detach further from my phone because notifications go to my watch. I hate being tethered to my phone, so that's the killer feature for me. With the cellular model, I leave the house without my phone sometimes, which is nice. When I worked in the office, the phone stayed in my bag most of the day.
From the article:

Ernest Rutherford is famously quoted proclaiming “If your experiment needs statistics, you ought to have done a better experiment.”

“Of course, there is an existential problem arguing for large effect sizes. If most effect sizes are small or zero, then most interventions are useless. And this forces us scientists to confront our cosmic impotence, which remains a humbling and frustrating experience.”
I also remember the huge uproar when Apple switched from the 30-pin connector to the lightning connector.
Wow. Norm Macdonald is my favorite comedian of all time and stand up comedy is one of my favorite things about humanity. I was just watching some clips of his on the "I'm not Norm" YouTube channel while eating lunch right before I read this. I had no idea he had cancer, although in retrospect I can see the signs...

Damn, what a massive shock. He was an absolute legend and will never be forgotten. RIP.

His appearance on Letterman's last show is one of the greatest stand up sets of all time and now I'll consider it his farewell. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFjEvl43zYY

A more recent appearance where he was great, just talking, was on David Spade's show. His quick comeback on the Paul Newman line is a great example of why he was so amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EbanVqLk1lQ
People you care about will regularly experience this, if it hasn't happened already. You'll be shocked and depressed when you discover who is doling out the shame and abuse, you will not recognize who you thought they were, and you will discover that if you stand up for them, you will also become a target.

I find it bewildering and worrisome, the way people think that this little monster won't grow and will stay on their leash.
It's kind of like reading anything in translation. Goethe loses a lot in English. Shakespeare in German is the same.
If there's one problem I have with Garmin, it's that I open the watch page on their website and I'm presented with a wall of products (I counted 27 different watches.) In addition to that what should be just a different app is a distinct product. If I'm a swimmer who also plays golf, I need two watches. If I also run, I need another. If I also want a smart watch that looks good, I need a fourth.

That part Apple does get right.

I agree it's valuable not to be too picky about your life experiences, but at the same time, it's a safe bet that you're going to regret spending too many of those 4,000 weeks repeating the same low-value experiences over and over again. It's dumb to say, "I regret never jumping out of an airplane because I spent too many weekends climbing mountains or hunting moose or taking my wife on romantic getaways". It's perfectly reasonable to say, "I regret never jumping out of an airplane OR climbing a mountain OR hunting a moose because I literally spent every weekend getting drunk and playing video games in my underwear".

Yes. I have never killed an animal to eat and had it suffer. I kill sheep with a very sharp knife, and they're unconscious from blood loss before they feel the pain. I thank them for their gift once they're gone.

Even if you assume there are sufficient working parts in orbit to construct working satellites, doing that reconstruction in space would require gathering them together in space either by people (super expensive) or by a sufficiently flexible robot, in which case we're already sending up something, just send up the desired new satellite instead.

Alternatively we could deorbit components without them burning up and assemble new ones down here, but that would also be vastly more expensive than just making new ones down here to begin with.

I don't know about "best", but it's part of why Silicon Valley is Silicon Valley. The place is just swimming in people who ended up millionaires after a successful exit, along with FAANG engineers who have a lot of money and, even if they don't have enough to own property in the Bay Area, still have enough to give $10k to a friend with no real expectation that they'll get any of it back. Combine that with a enough other people, and raising $100k is trivial, relatively speaking.

Someone who's worked at a FAANG has also seen how those places remain functional, which helps shape a startup's culture when growing from 10 to 100 to 1000 to 10,000 employees and (hopefully) can avoid toxic pitfalls that poison a company to a slow death with.

In my experience, the implication is that things which are social constructs have no basis in reality and are thus not useful (and their use is harmful).

>[porn companies] need regulation

No, nothing needs regulation. Stop making the internet fucking worse. Can we go back to 2000 now (not that it was good then either since the internet was fundamentally broken already)? This is like the bat shit insane morons who think having a popup about cookies on every page is solving the """privacy""" issue.

Literally every single political issue on HN is bogus. Take the ad blocking issue for instance, nothing that has ads actually matters. Your "solutions" like Brave are pure garbage.

The "privacy" issue doesn't exist because if we were using sane tech instead of webshit, there wouldn't be any tracking since it wouldn't be conceptually possible. Why the hell can tech even track you in the first place for reading static documents? This is a poor analog that cannot even compete with paper newspapers (which are also much more legible because they are not on LCDs).

Net neutrality doesn't matter because nobody can ELI5 why I should care about it. Since the internet is all garbage, it shouldn't be an issue that it's expensive. Just don't use it. Make a free replacement. Cuban citizens have already done it.

Now let me try and list CURRENT_YEAR.addictions:

- Games

- Working out

- Porn

- Social media

- TV (youtube or whatever you use now)

- HN (muh dunning kruger syndrome, imposter, et al)

- Eating

- Lotto tickets

- Stock market

- Programming

- Working

- Drugs

- Things that are sort of drugs but not

- Any substance what so ever

- Benchmarking

- Politics

- Literally any hobby

Oh look guys, HN needs to be regulated because I can come up with a person who has problems because of it.

Guys we need to regulate fat and high calorie food. Oh wait it grows on trees.

People who see a problem and immediately go "we need regulation to solve this" (and even proceed to come up with some ad-hoc hypothesis of how it solves the problem after it's proven that it doesn't solve it in a substantial way) are morons. There is actually something wrong with their brain. They hold back progress. Every new law is a potential stumbling block for progress and thus why new legislation should be avoided at all costs. See MECHANISM NOT POLICY article on wikipedia to see how people already knew about this 70 years ago in tech.
> They don’t inject arbitrary social categories into the definition. Definitions of “race” have no empirical basis on which to be proved or disproved in the first place.

That's simply not correct. The literature abounds with all sorts of correlates with race, like propensity for sickle cell anemia, vitamin D deficiencies, susceptibility to alcohol, and morphological differences. These are just as empirically justified as any classification of species, and just as with species, not all of those properties need apply to every single member in that category.

So to the extent that we find "species" a meaningful category when applied correctly, then we should also find "race" a meaningful category when applied correctly. The key in both scenarios is to apply them correctly, and we should abandon them when we find more precise metrics.

That said, you are correct that there are also numerous cultural and social properties that are sometimes lumped in with race in a manner that we don't see with species, mainly because "species" hasn't been politicized. That doesn't imply that there's nothing "there" once you tune out that baggage.
We were marvelling at a surface shaded render made on a new Siemens MR from an T1 MPRage on a very still and compliant patient. It basically looked like a black and white photo (though with the tools at hand we could cut the image in half and look at the brain). You could see the facial hair and you could identify the patient if you knew them.
Medical imaging is moving along at pace and it would be interesting to see what could be inferred from a dataset of images of this quality.
The lower down a bit of suffering is on Maslow's hierarchy of needs, the easier it is to measure on a societal scale.

Everyone's starving to death? Easy to measure. Everyone's living in an economically precarious situation? A bit more difficult to measure. Everyone's living life with a vague sense of listlessness and ennui? Much more difficult to measure.

Tackling the easily measured physical suffering both takes priority and has the most obvious means of feedback.
Just because it's artificial scarcity doesn't mean it's not useful. Money also has artificial scarcity and that's a pretty good invention.

My point is that copyright is to incentivize authors to produce work but if it's limited by the author's lifetime, then older people will be incentivized less than younger people because they won't be able to sell the rights for as much money because they'll expire sooner. We don't particularly need work created by young people more than old people, so why incentivize it that way?
>So, it is important to listen to vocal complainers, even in minority,

Maybe in some cases this is true, but I can't agree with that in terms of taking product direction from social media. In my (anecdotal) experience with areas where I have expertise, the loud and vocal complainers are almost always completely wrong about something or missing some key piece of information. In fact the angrier and more emotional the complaining, the more likely it seems to me that the complaint is based on false information. Maybe I'll have to do a comprehensive study on this at some point.

If you meant "listen" only in terms of hear what they have to say in order to educate them then sure, that can be important for marketing to explain product changes, but it's not a way to drive product changes.

They're basically wolves, but instead of hunting, their drive is to protect. They're amazing dogs, incredibly smart, and don't let the cuteness fool you, they can kill most predators without a problem. My dog's grandfather tore the entire throat out of a coyote without breaking a sweat, dragged the corpse home and tossed it under the porch, looking extremely proud of himself. Then he went back to lying down in a field with the lambs and letting them jump on him.

> Most data is not 300 years old or in the distance future, in fact ranges 1970+-292 years are very common.

In what domains? Astronomy, geology, history call for larger time range. Laser and High Energy physics need femtosecond rather than nanosecond resolution. My point is that a fixed time resolution, whatever it is, is a bad choice. Numpy explicitly allows to select time resolution unit and this is the right approach. BTW, numpy is pandas dependency and predates it by several years.
Right, I have a Garmin 245 that I regularly get 3-5 days on a charge (lots of GPS runs though) and I don't have a problem finding an hour here and there to charge it.

> On my older Intel NUC i can play 1080p H.264 (using mpv) hw-accelerated with 15% cpu load, or software decoded with 75% cpu load

These numbers are meaningless without measuring watt-hours used for the task.

I was able to play 1080p H.264 video with hardware acceleration on a 8800 GS with an Athlon X2 5000 with about the same CPU utilization, back in 2008-2009. There was a special library (shareware) that enabled HW acceleration way before it was commonplace on integrated GPUs. Forgot what it was called, but it was Nvidia/CUDA only.

That was 12+ years ago.

Obviously GPUs have become more efficient since then, but so have the CPUs. It also matters how the video stream was encoded for efficiency. It's entirely possible that under certain options, hardware decoding's advantages are almost entirely negated.
This is more because there isn't an incentive (monetary or otherwise) to do that. When Flash gaming was big, web-based games were on the desktop but web games never took off on mobile which got pretty much all the audience they used to have on the desktop. Instead mobile games are largely native (or at least in app form).

I agree that it took many years for HTML5/JS to reach Flash's capabilities (and some stuff like easily swapping around SWF files is still not as easy to do) and i dislike how Flash was forcibly killed instead of losing its popularity "naturally" (though it being proprietary technology instead of some open standard or at least an open source project help its murder considerably), but the reason you do not see Citadel-level stuff on HTML5/JS has more to do with not being much of an incentive to do something like that than the technology being able or not (demos like After the Flood[0], which has as much gameplay as Citadel yet it shows more advanced rendering techniques - you can even look yourself in the glass reflections :-P - show that it is technically possible).
