Man, Apple's review process is getting to pretty incomprehensible heights. Certain people will have their apps rejected carte-blanche, while other developers get to... collaborate with the reviewers to blacklist objectionable content in their app? I really don't follow how a dialogue like this even starts in the first place, much less how nobody has stepped forwards and just acknowledged that this is a double-standard yet.

The App Store desperately needs transparency if it wants to avoid regulatory ire. Stories like this are just getting ridiculous.

This is a tad misleading. Your sentence implies they are given access to 'the internet', but in reality it's a select list of Facebook-approved sites that are slimmed down. Obviously, this sets a bad precedent and is anti-competitive (other social media platforms on Internet.org, etc.). This is far from the internet: this is a locked-down Facebook-controlled vision of what they'd like the internet to be.
It depends what's long term for you. If long term is 10-20 years then cold disk storage is probably acceptable provided you have some redundancy. However if for whatever reason you are aiming at 50, 100, or 100+ year storage, this is probably the safer approach (however like another comment mentioned, a decoding algorithm should probably be provided with the documents).
I'm not sure what you mean for outdated skills? Where I work we don't usually hire for tech stack or languages, we test more design pattern, principles, architectural knowledge even knowledge about paradigms, which are like not things that change often, I guess you have to know what pattern becomes an antipattern. I think maybe you might have found some javascript developers that to me have always felt very stuck and introvert(?) with their tech stack or last framework hunting, but I think to be able to give you an informed opinion one should know also what kind of knowledge you have and what have you built, and what kind of positions you're applying to

The spectrum in question was never allocated for use by RADALTs. Prior to being allocated for 5G use it was used for C-band satellite transmission. If there is an issue of interference with RADALTs the real question should be why did the FAA allow deployment of RADALTs in aircraft which could not operate in their allocated frequency band without risk of dangerous interference from already assigned frequencies. The second question should be what is the FAA, aircraft and airline industry going to do to quickly correct the issue they created.

The first usable VR headset was HTC Vive in 2016. Over the last 5 years the tech got way better – larger FOV, higher pixel density, lighter optics, smaller form factor, and a good number of game titles. Gaming started it (remember Pong?), but there are awful lot of other use cases waiting to be reinvented. The neat thing is that it can simulate the old media with a high fidelity, which is a hallmark of every major class of new medium.

"efficiently"

This is the weasel word.

In war, especially a war of national survival, one can argue that winning the war is the important cause and all others are of secondary importance. So you can actually use the word "efficient" about distribution of goods without first discussing the ends of said distribution. The main end is simply to win, or at least not to lose catastrophically.

In peacetime, there isn't a single primary objective, but a multitude of smaller, competing ones. Once you start speaking of "efficient distribution of goods", you imply existence of a ladder of importance on which these objectives are sorted.

An example: is it more efficient if Peter and Paul have one car each or if Peter has two cars and Paul has none? Well, it depends what they do with them, no? What if Paul is legally blind and cannot drive? (But radicals might still argue that Peter having two cars is a big no-no because it increases inequality.)

If you look at it from a cynical standpoint, what's happening is completely obvious. Apple is applying the full force of their developer policy -- and the pressure is mounting -- because Tumblr has absolutely zero social capital. It's a dead platform, and other than a few zealots, just about everyone's moved on.

Contrast this with Epic v. Apple: Epic has the arguable upper hand there (and Apple's flinched a few times already) because Fortnite is a massively popular game with a huge fanbase.
The analogy doesn’t fit, because in spite of its complexity, Kubernetes won the orchestrator wars. So, as mentioned in another comment, Kubernetes is VHS: Developed by a vendor that was more interested in spreading it than locking it down and monetizing it, thus ensuring that it gathered support by other vendors. Other orchestrators are still being used, but they’re not the default option that most would know about. And that’s fine.

There’s no reason to believe Kubernetes will stop dominating the orchestration market. There’s going to be more pressure from existing vendors to make it cheaper, better easier to deploy and and less complex. Likewise with VHS, you could rent a VHS Player (MovieBox) along with a movie if you didn’t feed comfortable with the investment of a VCR.

What’s going to kill Kubernetes, if anything, is likely a move away from container orchestration to something else, where the Kubernetes resource model somehow isn’t a good fit.

Likewise, VHS didn’t lose dominance, the videotape market just became irrelevant. IBM still dominates mainframes, Windows NT++ still dominates office/workgroup servers, and VMware still dominates virtualization.
> I have no idea how to nurture one for anyone else.

The bullshit detector is usually intuition and, very rarely, is what's called 'wisdom'. Intuition is what I'd describe as "the right feeling" - ability to "hear" truth, in a sense. Wisdom is "the right knowledge" - ability to see the truth. Intuition is related to emotions, and can be improved by straigthening up one's emotions. An uncontrolled storm of emotions obscurates intuition, and hatred burns it. That's why, I think, a known occult aphorism says: "a moment of hatred erases eons of achievements". Wisdom is similarly related to thoughts and words, and so straightening up what one says and thinks, allows the wisdom to show up. The " all seeing eye" is the typical symbol of wisdom. Afaik, only few top scientists had it, and they attributed their ability to see truth to luck and lots of read books.

I believe that most people out there give in to emotions, those gradually turn into something more sinister - hatred fueled by vanity, that burns their intuition to the ground and from that moment they're unable to feel what's right and what's wrong.

Personally I would be perfectly happy if everyone just ran those all-season mountain snowflake tires in the winter. Sure, they're not as good as a real snow tire, but they're actually pretty good overall and I'd have no problem throwing a set of those on my pickup and going over the mountain. For the kind of winter weather we routinely see west of the Cascades, this kind of tire is ideal.

But what really happens is we have a lot of people on summer tires or the crappiest of all season commodity tires. As long as you don't have to do an emergency stop or an evasive maneuver, they seem like they're adequate for Oregon weather. But I recommend everyone with such tires try a hard stop or turn (in a big parking lot of course) with these tires when it's sub-40F.

It is similar in that both situations resulted from the reallocation of a satellite downlink band to terrestrial use. Suddenly the the band that only had transmitters in space barely detectable on the ground has actual transmitters on the ground. It's like having noisy people move in next door when the previous occupants were very quiet.

I confirmed the compensation range via email directly with the hiring manager at the company and again with HR during the initial pitch screening call. "That won't be a problem." was the response. I don't work with 3rd-party or external recruiters so it most definitely wasn't any confusion there.

Now, they might have thought "this guy isn't worth $X, let's offer him $Y" instead, but offering an exceptionally senior candidate $100K is one hell of a "we don't think you're worth it" snub. It's insulting.
They definitely do. Ads in the subway carry an outstanding cognitive load. A simple experiment helps understand this: just walk through a super ad-heavy subway (Paris or London) then through a much lighter one (Vienna). The difference is significant. The mental experiment is literally different.
The commenter made a perfectly reasonable observation, actually, which could apply just as well to any sweeping modernization (for example the advent of mass-scale global trade, the collapse of state socialism in Eastern Europe, or even colonialism). Each of these transformations have created winners and losers within the affected countries, and a heck of a lot of social churn to boot. It's pretty superficial to just say "net overall benefit, nevermind the losers" any of these cases.

So I'd say the onus is on you to provide comprehensive data to support your sweeping claim that the number of losers has been apparently negligible in the countries (including all factors, not just economic). And that's data, not your pile of subjective observations from the biased selection of people you met, here and there.

At least from skimming the Abstract, the "National Water Grid" on that OSTI.gov page would be nothing resembling a "national grid". It could only move water from the Mississippi R. to the upper Colorado R. Ignoring the pumps...just the aqueduct that you'd need to build - ~1,400 miles long, with the capacity of a major river - would have zero political chance of being approved & funded.

And for a water grid that could absorb extreme events - upgrade the sizes of all the aqueducts and pumps by an order of magnitude or two. And then you've got to extend it to every spot you want to protect from extreme weather...

much of the CPI are depreciatory or non-durable goods. i can’t hedge against multi-year inflation by purchasing meat and dairy. if i buy a car as you suggest, it’s not likely to be worth as much 5 years from now than today.

or do you mean not literally buying the CPI basket, but buying commodity futures, stock in producer companies, etc?
A comment in a forum seems inadequate to cover the root causes of the soviet breakup, but it ultimately did come down to food and money.

Firstly, the soviet Union was made up of a number of separate countries (as the original article notes things were quite different in Russia, Lithuania and East Germany. While all lead by communist parties, all operated in fear of Russian occupation (as happened in Hungary in 1956 and czechoslovakia in 1968).

Soviet block countries were dependent on Russia for aid, and military support. In the late 80's Russia was unwilling, and unable, to spend the necessary money to cover all the needs, so states prioritised food (on the basis that starving people are seldom compliment). Necessary maintaince of (for example) the border fence between Hungary and Austria is not paid for (by Russia) leading to the first domino falling and a route being opened to the west.

In Poland and Berlin popular movements progress quickly, and in both cases Gorbachev refuses to use the Russian military to prop up those govts.

These are but the broadest strokes though - obviously there are a lot of moving parts, and a lot of different populations in play. But money is at the root of it all, and Warsaw pact countries needed money to import food from the west.

What do you mean by it's always a few years off? Nanopore will allow you to do high-quality genomic sequencing _now_, in a home lab if you wanted, for less than $3K. If you amortize the 3K by the number of genomes you can sequence on the same flow cell, the price per base or per genome falls precipitously, depending on the size of the genome of course.

I did something similar in college in the 90's, except using cut crystals. One laser in, hundreds of beams out (faded, of course).

First matrix movie i turned off half way through. I stopped listening to the dialogue after 10 minutes because it was so dreadful but I had hopes that it was just made intentionally bad to make a point or something.

It wasn't. This is the best they could do and it's awful.
Problem with this movie is that is it was forced. According to one interview with the director, they said that a family loss prompt them to write some story as a coping mechanism, which ended up being adapted to a studio forced cash grab Matrix movie. So what a natural lack of effort and inspiration, what was great about the first 3 - the dread, sense of threat, etc... is simply gone.

Having said that, i found it mostly enjoyable and a good resolution to Neo's arc. Don't think i will repeat viewing.

If you want to see capitalism with a lot less rules, harming the poor and environment then go back 50 years. Then go back 100 and 150. It gets much much worse than where we are today.

If you have perspective you’ll realize that while things are never perfect, they are improving. And you do recognize ‘why’ as well in your own post - the government. The gov sets the rules and playing field for capitalism to regulate resources.

Still you don’t understand when you say, why don’t companies pay higher wages. As that would create more healthcare, education or homes, as opposed to inflating prices. I’ll say it again, money doesn’t create resources it only balances the limited resources that exist right now.

To increase resources in a sustainable way requires improved education and technology to increase productivity.
