If you have the butterfly keyboard MBP, complain about the keyboard being broken, and you may well get it replaced under the "extended repair programme" - since the battery is glued to the topcase you also get a new battery.
> dating back to the Treaty of Westphalia in 1648. This international order is a major reason why we can have nice things, like peace, instead of unending war

Westphalian sovereignty has been a myth for centuries. It is incompatible with international trade. It is incompatible with Nuremberg. And it’s internally inconsistent, giving no guidance as to which historical borders are the correct ones nor what counts as domestic versus international concern. (Spoiler: anyone can find some point in time when they had legitimate claim to almost anything, and anyone can deem almost anything domestic or international.)

None of the Treaties’ signatory states exist today. None of them were democracies. Citing it is akin to bringing up the elements of fire and earth in a physics lecture.
Obviously not, given what their smartphone apps and browsers are doing. The real question is whether the though of being stalked by an individual rather than by corporations will make any difference.

To add as a counter point, I've only had positive experiences with Dell. And that's over 10+ years at work and personally.

It's never been more complicated than the normal:

1) "make sure your BIOS is upto date" hogwash, which I troubleshoot prior.

2) Acknowledge it's a hardware issue

3) Get a field tech to call me

4) Wait a day or two at most for parts, if not the same day

5) Tech comes out and replaces any parts at my place of work or home

6) Fixed

And this has been over years and years with Precision and XPS laptops.

At its inception Instagram wasn’t on the facebook trajectory, so the core of the system is pretty different.

When the main use case is posting pictures of cute cats and dogs, changing names and categories isn’t a big deal. I agree with you it sure changed a lot, but the current owners probably don’t mind.
Yeah agreed, can't wait till they're available in Australia.
Is it sarcasm? But on a serious note, Android ecosystem survived without iPhone grade security. iPhone couldn’t stop Pegasus. At best iOS appstore is a hurdle for well meaning apps too. Having said all this, I doubt iOS will allow anything new if a third party app store does happen. I have a strong feeling it would be a app store api backed UI just like how safari is the base engine for all alternate browsers.
I wouldn't expect ordering of writes to be preserved, absent a specific way of expressing that need, part of a write cache's job is reordering writes to be more efficient which means ordering is not generally preserved.

But then again, if they're willing to accept and confirm flush commands without flushing, I wouldn't expect them to actually follow ordering constraints.
what about alpha?

It's the true in everything, gen 1 version of cars, fridges, you name it.

I try to get gen 2 or later after a new revision.

I made an exception with my current car because all the electronics are new which to be frank are probably the biggest risk, but Isuzu engines, drive trains and gear boxes have barely changed in 10+ years. And they're the parts I'm more worried about and the 6 year warranty covers everything else.

But as you said, the same reliability can never be expected in consumables like computers, phones and the like.

> - fixed 8-bit stack pointer so things like automatic variables and pass-by-value can't take up a lot of space.

Also, the stack isn't addressable. The only stack operations the CPU natively supports are push and pop. If you want to access values anywhere else on the stack (say, if you're trying to spill a couple of local variables to the stack), you're going to have a bad time.
For the site author, thanks for this tool! Clojure has changed the way I program and I've been using it for 6 years now. Anything to help more people get into Clojure is much appreciated, especially if it's REPL-oriented.

For some feedback, you might consider using Let's Encrypt for setting up free TLS certs, or hosting on Github Pages to get it automatically. With just HTTP, my browser (and many others) will show a scary warning telling me not to use the site.
This is absolutely correct. Cattle vs. Pet analogy [0] applies perfectly there. On the other hand, HPC systems are far from being unprotected. Storage systems generally disable write caches on spinning drives automatically and have all on the fly data on either battery backed or flash based caches. So FS level corruption is kept at minimal levels.

Also, yes, many longer jobs are checkpoints and restart where it's left off, but it's not always possible, unfortunately.

Not sure if others noticed this, but Google Authenticator now offers a bulk export of all the codes in your app, so that you can clone them in a single step on another device. This is welcome for me at least because I was saving backup copies of the original 2FA QR codes separately, and each time a new device I would have to scan them all in one by one.
I'd expect no webcam, no internet, if Ukraine were actually invaded, as all the noise seems to indicate is about to happen.

I wouldn't expect to see Dnipro lit like a Christmas tree every night, or families with their kids out at the slopes during the day, or people just going about their lives.

> An enormous number of high-value residential properties in London lie empty because they exist only as a store of wealth for Russian oligarchs.

Which is a shame because it would be better if they were put yo use, but it’s not a threat to the UK economy. No jobs depend on those properties. If there is a war and sanctions, we’ll, that’s why those oligarchs own those properties, to protect their wealth from Putin. They’re hardly going to sell up and move that wealth back to Russia, and if they did, so what?

These sorts of Russian backup plan investments are always trotted out as this spooky big dependency we have in Russia. It’s utterly bogus, fear mongering founded on a fundamental misconception of how economics and finance actually work. Hardly surprising as it mostly comes from Marxists. We do have economic ties with Russia through UK companies doing business there, that’s where the risk is because that’s where the jobs and investments in jeopardy are.
If I'm checking my email, I may as well use 2FA.

What I want is smarter auth systems that are better at determining how weird something is. Is it completely secure, no, but for example Heroku now has a ridiculously short session timeout, even when I'm logging in from the same browser, same machine, same IP address, come back to check something a few hours later and I'm completely logged out. Why?

I must say I'm confused about hating passwords as a /developer/ though. Even the smallest web frameworks generally have well-documented frequently used auth solutions. Setting up users/passwords and even 2FA at this point is basically a lego block everywhere.
Does that mean one would find themselves in an environment surrounded by bright innovative minds should they go for IBM?
I really do love the swallowtail flag. It's instantly recognizable. Few other states have such well-known flags; Texas perhaps with the lone star and California with the bear.
I do. I typically have plenty of constants with descriptive names, and typing DESCRIPTIVE_NAME with a single hand is annoying.

As a side note I noticed that some keyboards implement CapsLock wrong: when CapsLock is on, pressing "9" should generate "9" and not ")". Otherwise it would be called ShiftLock, which is a lot less useful.
The warranties are that worthless?

We really have no consumer protections in the US anymore.
> The problem is not the airtag, it’s the find my network.

Tile, for example, actually works the exact same way. If you fully loose your tile connected to your keys you can put it into a "lost" mode [1] which will then notify you and gps locate it just like an airtag if someone with the tile app is near your tile. But you are correct, the big difference here will be how many devices have tile installed vs iphones.

Clojure absolutely does not reflect on every call, and no it does require type hinting every argument to every function to get that speed. Especially after Clojure 1.8 came out, huge performance gains were had by inlining far more direct function calls. You can achieve near Java performance on most code, especially if you are okay sacrificing the immutable data structures and lazy sequences. I think this is what makes Clojure shine: you get a beautiful, functional, immutable, easy to understand world, and mostly it is extremely performant, and if it's not, you can have a few functions wrapping uglier but more performant bits, and Java interop is also extremely easy if you want to drop another level down. All the Java tooling for analyzing stack traces and bottlenecks works pretty well if you need to chase performance issues too. And my god it's going to be a lot faster than a lot of Ruby and Python etc apps. I say that with love as long term Rails programmer.
Electrostatic shielding is actually about shielding the inside of a closed (hollow) conductor from the outside (the standard deriviation from Gauss's law).

If the conductor is non-grounded then a charge outside the conductor is fully affected by charges inside the conductor but not the position of all the charges (since the divergence of the field through a closed surface will produce a scalar field that varies with distance to the point at which we are measuring the electric potential so the only thing that matters is how far from the closed surface we are (and assuming all charges are enclosed within the closed surface we can represent them as a net charge at the center of the closed conductor).

If the conductor is grounded you are then basically changing the flux with which we can calculate the electrostatic potential at a point outside the sphere (and therefore changing how an external charge will be affected by an internal charge)
Thanks, I thought this was a special Samsung feature. They certainly advertise it as such!
Anyone else now thinking of that public webcam pointed at an RSA token from way back?
> We first asked them to rate their well-being — their happiness, if you will — along with their optimism, and then tracked which soldiers later received awards based on their job performance.

I'm curious to dig into the paper more because at first glance, I feel somewhat confused they seem to say happiness and well-being and optimism are all essentially the same thing. Again, maybe their paper doesn't say that and it's just their attempt to summarize it, and maybe some people see those three as different words for the same concept, yet I imagine many wouldn't.
Seems like you're in one of these target industries!

Willing to chat about this more? =]
>Burn in is never mentioned.

This is about Mini LED LCD Display, why would burn-in be mentioned? Or you want it to be stated as an advantage?
IBM might actually find some. I doubt they could keep them.

I have met a bunch of great ex-IBM people. But they measured their stays in months.
> months later had a non-functional trackpad, and they refused to do anything to rectify the situation

How is that not covered by the standard, mandated 1-year warranty? Did they pull the same BS described in the article?

Apple is no saint for this kind of stuff either though, I still remember the red humidity marker in the headphone jack that denied repairs to many people because of “water damage” (which was actually just sweat, probably)
I'm confused by the categorical distinction you are trying to make between Jobs and Musk. What's the problem with electric cars that (almost) drive themselves, rockets that land themselves, and broadband internet in remote places?
I’d imagine someone decides either based on the results of the tests not aligning with expectations (in which case —- cool), or because they’d rather not come out to a customer with a hard ‘no’ on a replacement, and essentially comp it as a courtesy. I wonder if in your case it’s simply been the latter.

Retail is hard. Perhaps less hard for Apple, but I wonder to what extent the retail store employees end up paying for stuff like this.
Are developers really counted on for innovation anyway? We seem like implementation units.

Someone else makes decisions and creates tickets for devs to work on.
> You think installing cameras on your own property is stalking?

The moment that someone responded in bad faith was right here.

You know full well that we're talking about the companies that get the data from these devices and what they do with it, not the rubes that these companies trick into buying their stalking products.

You also know full well that ADT is in no way comparable to Google in this discussion given the order of magnitude difference in revenue between the two companies and the extensive integration between the intelligence community and Google.
I mean, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N900#/media/File:Nokia_N... is absolutely nothing like https://i.ytimg.com/vi/w72kt0kbgmY/maxresdefault.jpg other than the fact that they both have screens.

If you wanted to compare the N900 to an iPhone, that might be a slightly more apt comparison, but at the end of the day, the iPhone and iPad completely changed what "phones" and "tablets" look like. Their predecessors and successors are extremely different devices and perform different functions.
My memory is a little fuzzy, but iirc after required tags in the advertising packet you had ~28 bytes that could be tagged 0xFF - mfg data. Then there is also BLE5 which adds advertising extensions to get to 240-250bytes. And the scan response packet which was under 30 all the time. But I could be wrong about all of that, been a little while since I was that deep in BLE.

Point for me is that Apple absolutely could do supply chain verification but… for some reason don’t?
A vendor could display a nag screen at inopportune moments to connect the TV. As far as I know Samsung does this.
The elusive "h". It is very common (for French speaking English) to either remove an h as they did there, or insert it where it don't belong as in "hot hair balloon" or the city of "Hamsterdam".
Just to be clear, I don't think it's always unfair for companies to require employees to "show up". I only think it is unfair if the only reason they are doing so is to satisfy the personal social needs of employees, because they are putting the personal needs of some employees above the personal needs of other employees.
...and so, one day, the TV finds an open Wi-Fi hotspot and sends everything it has collected anyways.
No, those are just the most outspoken members of the tech community. You’re ignoring the CEOs of IBM, Garmin, Cisco, and a whole host of other tech company CEOs that keep quiet but get the job done.

And who’s to say keeping quiet even correlates with high performance? Intel’s CEO seems to stay out of the news but is otherwise a denthead. NVidia’s CEO is well-spoken and still beats predictions every year. It seems like we’re judging books by their covers here.
>even from developer friends? "Apple can no longer innovate."

You could consider getting new friends who are more intelligent. Some people are being fooled by the fact that a rectangle shape is staying consistent year after year, a very surface attribute. Apple does deep work. People who think only the surface matters are missing the story.
Help me get off Samsung!

I find the Note's stylus terrific - and I find the iEcosystem does not fit me. Are there any non-Samsung devices with a stylus? Are there any good third-party stylii? I need something for dragging across the screen smoothly primarily, but also used for tapping.

I once bought an "active stylus" from ebay for about $20 that was terrific, but it failed within a year and I've been unable to repair it. It's not available anymore, but I've tried other active stylii and been disappointed. Also, that fact that the Note stylus is built into the phone means that it is always available - that is not the case with any other stylus.

Help me HN, you're my only hope.
Jobs definitely did all those things, he was just edgy in a (now) more socially respected way, but he definitely wasn’t at the time.

CNN being trustworthy or not doesn't make some random YouTube channel a better source. I'd like to understand how the parent commenter came to recommend this alternative.

The biggest thing I see unmentioned is the ERISA protections. Do not turn your 401(k) into an IRA before understanding the implications of losing that protection. It's a safety mechanism for your future self.

Please reply to my direct question. In which way did the USSR under Stalin allow worker control of the means of production?

This isn't a changing of goalposts, it is simply ignoring obvious lies and propaganda from a regime famous for its lack of regard for the truth.

Yes. It’s a deterrent and a financial tool. “I supply you now, but what if I cut it off?” Also, gas means legitimate money moving in Europe to buy people with, look at the history of French or German politicians working for Russian gas interests. “Don’t do anything stupid and there’s a cozy consultancy position open for you at Gazprom”.

> If you eat out, all restaurants and fast food is either cooked in it or it's in the food they are serving.

Was recently searching for information about the restaurant industry’s switch from classic fryer oils to seed oils. I ran across something about Buffalo Wild Wings (BWW) getting sued by a vegetarian because they’d assumed BWW used ‘vegetable’ oil in their fryers. BWW’s attorneys got the suit thrown out.

On learning this, I added BWW to my list of restaurants to patronize.

Had a friend buy me lunch last Thursday. She ordered fried shrimp from the appetizer menu. They were very greasy - I pulled off the breading to hopefully avoid the oil. The next day I cautioned her about eating foods fried in vegetable oil. We went to BWW that night. I ordered wings and French fries. Would order again.

> Computers now instantly boot up when plugged into the wall, and run until the plug is pulled. No more start-up time, the cases are aesthetically cleaner, and manufacturing cost is down at least a fraction of a dollar.

This is not futuristic, but actually retro. Some older computers (i.e. Sinclair ZX Spectrum) didn't have a power button at all.
