I've found it to be very inconsistent. I've found that typically episodes will play credits and not auto-forward to the next episode. Movies will sometimes skip credits and move to trailers, sometimes not. I feel like usually they move to trailers. And movies is when I MOST want to watch credits and reflect on the movie, so Netflix is literally doing the opposite of what I want.
Steve's sixth and most important reason in that essay is "We know from painful experience that letting a third party layer of software come between the platform and the developer ultimately results in sub-standard apps and hinders the enhancement and progress of the platform."

That's Steve saying he wants to 'protect' the app store, and justify the 30% fee. If people could pump out Flash games it would have put Apple users off buying apps...

How would do that easily?

Did you mean writing a c extension of Sqlite?
It actually happens all the time, which is why the suggestion is valid (namely that flow typing is useful). Flow typing is deeply related to union types, at least for expression-based languages.

Take rust. You have a function that on one path of a branch returns an int, in the other, a float. Rust says that's an error. I say your function returns a union type :)

And this is totally pervasive. A function which returns an int in an if branch (w/out an else) and elsewhere returns nothing actually returns an optional.

A variable which is assigned in one branch to a reference to an int (an l-value in languages that screwed this up, like rust; a ptr int in languages that, sensibly, use types to encode this property, like algol68) in one branch, and to an int value in the other, is technically a union type. If that union is added to a to a float - that shouldn't be an error! The int should be widened, the ref int should be dereferenced, then widened.

OTOH, if you try to assign an int to that union - now that is an error, because values can't be assigned to. You can only assign to types which represent a location in memory, like ref int, unlike int.

In the above discussion, the effect of control flow on the types is critical. Languages like rust ignore this, and to my mind, their ergonomics suffer considerably because of this. C++ side-steps this through statement based syntax, which makes variant types clunky.

Union types are beautiful and powerful, but there seems to be a lack of appreciation for the subtle and deep ways they impact language design. You have to design them in right from the beginning; it's a tricky thing thing to get right, and doing so absolutely requires flow typing.
Australia has federal legislation that applies state law to federal land, in general (the Commonwealth Places (Application of Laws) Act 1970).

(Also, it's only major airports - state capital city airports, plus a handful of regional airports that were formerly owned by the Federal Airports Corporation - that are federal land. Most airports in Australia are small regional airports that are and were always owned by local government and not subject to the special federal land ownership and leasing regime of the major airports.)
There is no need for "belief", it is literally not a science, it does not adhere to the scientific method.
As a mostly private teacher of mathematics with 7 to 10 years experience for both, children at schools and adults at university, and both, individuals and groups, and both, those who struggle and those who do not, I'd like to share my narrow experience and disagree.

Most people I worked with struggled with something entirely different than the actual content they are trying or forced to learn. I am certain the biggest obsticles are stress, fear and and hopelessnes. And often not towards the methematics, but rather something entirely different. E.g. issues in the family, fear of the consequences of bad grades, and no hope regarding their own future, regardless of whether they learn or not.

I expierienced some challenges as ADHD and expierienced them as somewhat orthogonal. And definitely additionally challenging for me as a teacher. I also expierienced people who did struggle a lot, independent of anything I mentioned so far. So I am sure, there is differences among people (you may measure that in IQ or whatever, I prefer not to). But for most people I met they are not the problem.
They would not prosecute you for that. It's a waste of money. They would move you along with a warning and they'd probably take your stuff.
Right. My 4050 with duplexer runs since the early 2000s. I had to "reflow solder" the JetDirect card in the oven, but that worked surprisingly well and gave another happy second printer life.
The biggest thing is that if you are calling to complain, then you will IMMEDIATELY be discredited. They don't have any reason to keep you happy, so complaints mean absolutely nothing. You cannot come with complaints - you must come with a solution, already prepared, such that it is easier for them to implement the solution than to not. People will always, 100% of the time, take the path of least resistance - actually make the path not resistant at all and it's the only way you can convince anyone to do anything.

> But you essentially can't overcome the network effects.

If the fediverse manages to stay on an interoperability open standards track, then I am sure it can and in a way that dominant platforms find hard to compete against, because their moat disappears in such environment. One where you can only compete on quality and not on lock-in and FOMO. But such open standards are very hard to bring to maturity in healthy ways.
for some reason, I thought it was M4. I had to learn pdf, I had to print pdf. the trusty old _4M_ was an absolute tank. I think I went through a box of paper, not ream, but box, working out edge cases and random floating point rounding errors. I can't bring myself to say _hate_ but I dislike printers. I have a grudging respect for HP 4M printers.

Yeah, when my home laser printer dies, I'm getting a refurb 4M, I'll set up a little shrine in the garage and print a page once every 2 years.
It's binary with the central dot/ding being the leading 1 and then toward the right

a ring is 0

a ring,ding is 1

The ring represents a doubling of its contents.
The special case for the leading bit could be avoided by always having an innermost empty ring. That would also give you a better (i.e. visible) representation for 0. The addition rule ensures that you always have exactly 1 leading 0.
The cultural references were double indirection re-referenced in Thor Ragnarock, with Taika Waititi managing to pay significant homage to things that only make sense to Australians and New Zealanders. Not sure how he got away with that, but I salute his endeavour and success.
Just do live sports already. Netflix has proved that there is a limit that can be hit by chasing long-tail viewership alone. Sports content is extremly fresh and generally exclusive. This could then be re-packaged into 'Drive to survive' type show as well. Amazon already did this partially with 'The Test' in Cricket context.

> including for other users because it creates a perverse incentive to collect user data and sell anyways

Huh?

I don’t see Facebook or Google going around selling user data, it’s secret sauce they want to protect. Why would netflix sell user data if they start advertising? Wouldn’t that be more likely in a world where user data isn’t otherwise a major revenue source for them? (Although collecting user data is clearly already super important for netflix as they use it to design their content)

Serious question: Does the community gave to secure items to prevent them from falling? Have you ever had shattered windows?

Less serious questions: Is it a 140dB alarm? Do you recognize models by sound? I assume the A320 is medium-size, do they have bigger airplanes?
I find this stuff so disheartening. It's like, "how early can we indoctrinate kids into being comfortable being watched and having their every move tracked?" I don't even care what the justifications are. Preventing cheating? Before everyone had personal computers and the internet, people could just copy each others' work.

This kind of crap is fundamentally a violation of students' right to privacy. They deserve to grow up in a safe environment away from the prying eyes of crappy adults.

I mean, to that point, how secure is GoGuardian? Who has access to the administrative tools/etc.? What APTs have gained access to its systems? A system breach of any online system is effectively inevitable, or at least impossible to rule out. Do you think everyone with a Verkada camera thought hackers around the world are going to be tuning into their video feed?[0]

Anyway, stop buying tech that force you to give up your right to privacy to use it. You don't have to go 100%, but at least start looking at these kind of things before you shell out your hard-earned dollars.

I live in Seattle. The local politicians managed to do that all by themselves.

For example, there once was a car tunnel under the city. The city decided to build another tunnel. What to do with the dug out material, what to do ... I know! let's pack it into the existing tunnel! We spend billions and wind up where we started!

(The rationale was the old tunnel was, well, getting old. Nobody was able to explain why boring a new tunnel was cheaper than shoring up the old one.)
This looks like a good way to pick something everyone will feel good about, but not necessarily the best strategy. Pretty much quantitate way to design by committee
If you work at Amazon, as I did, regardless of what you do you are part of the system. And that system, ultimately, creates value for AMZN's shareholders. And first and foremost Jeff Bezos.

The line so is based on how far down the food chain you are. Blue Collar employees, the drivers, warehouse workers and so on, are not part of the problem. White collar employees, pretty much so. I say that as a former White Collar Amazonian. Amazon, so to be fair, is just among the more extreme manifestations of rampant, unregulated capitalism. And it's not that all the other logistics companies are treating their blue collar employees any better. On average, so there are always those exceptions of great employers and great managers everywhere. Unfortunately those are becoming rarer by the day.

ZeroTier is peer-to-peer, like Tailscale, and both of them maintain proxies, in case direct connection cannot be established.

The main difference (to Tailscale) is that ZeroTier doesn't need an identity provider, since each machine needs to be whitelisted in ZT admin panel.
It is totally way too hard to align those things.

Most sleep timers works in hours, maybe half hour increment. Looking up the length of a show, estimating when Netflix will interrupt end-credits, is completely unreasonable workaround.
The `ipy` prefix in the `ipyvizzu` name has a story:

We tried to implement a generic python integration first. It seemed easy with cython. But a question arised: does it work with interactive widget in jupyter notebook?

The `ipywidget` showed as a solution, but the custom widget was too complex for our usecase. So we looked for examples, and we found `plotly`. `plotly` has a nice trick: in jupyter notebook they call `IPython.display.display_html` with raw option. This way a html `script` node can be displayed in jupyter notebook.

`Vizzu` has a nice javascript API so we went in this way. `ipyvizzu` basically is a javascript code generator wich works only in jupyter notebook. That's why we put the `ipy` prefix for the package name.

The generic python integration is still a good idea, and we can use the `pyvizzu` or `vizzu` package name for it in the future.

You can turn off auto-skipping to next episode, but depending on the platform you are watching on, it might still autopay trailers after a movie has finished.

That’s a good point, about seamless interop with existing social networks.

The EU Digital Markets Act looks like it’s designed to force some messaging interop, and it’s regulation-driven, so it can be refreshed a little more dynamically than most legislation.

Crossing fingers for some movement on the interop front!
Yeah, one difference between React and, say, Unreal Engine is that Unreal Engine is the brand for the whole package while React is the brand for one of the core components. ("I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as React is, in fact, React/Redux/Tailwind...")

Once you've bought into the whole ecosystem, you get an "engine" that wants your app to look and work a certain way just like how Unreal wants your game to look and work a certain way. You can customize it however you want, but every decision you don't make is made for you by the engine.

And even when you are making the decisions, the engine is always there, nudging you in a certain direction by making some things easier than others.
Netflix has two key disadvantages when compared to competitors:

- A lack of broader ecosystem leverage. Apple (through devices and Apple One), Amazon (through retail delivery with Amazon Prime) and to a lesser extent Disney (via their IP) can leverage these assets to both support streaming growth and not require direct profitability.

- A lack of quality. The shovelware of content that Netflix has focused on in the last few years will be their downfall. It makes ideas such as adding advertising palatable – most of the content is crap so why won't they put ads next to it?

Apple's best picture win for CODA was an inflection point in the streaming wars. It shatters the illusion that Netflix is the premiere streaming service. Netflix is still the biggest but over time the lack of quality will further tarnish their brand and impact on their ability to raise prices.

From a content quality perspective, Netflix with ads will be compared in consumers minds to YouTube. Once this occurs, consumers won't want to pay much more for Netflix than they currently do for YouTube.
> Depends. Apple products are often not upgradable, but they are reliable. My 2015 Macbook Pro was my daily driver for 7 years and I just now replaced it with a Macbook Air that I will probably use for 7 more years. I only replaced it because it was outdated in terms of processor speed. Most laptops aren't all that upgradable to begin with, so I think the tradeoff makes sense for laptop computers and devices.

True. My late-2011 13" MacBook Pro is still running strong, albeit for the poor battery life. 5 years back, I upgraded the RAM to 16 GB, and swapped out the HDD and the DVD drive for SSDs. It gets the job done even today. All it needs is a battery replacement.

> For desktop computers I don't think that same equation makes sense. If you need desktop power you have specific requirements and probably have specific peripherals that you use. You will want to always have the fastest hardware and so you want as much flexibility as possible. Apple doesn't provide this so the only people who tend to use Apple desktops are creative professionals where MacOS has some advantages and Apple hardware is always correctly calibrated out of the box.

Exactly. They know that they cater to a very specific group of people.
Yup, stuff like this should be on the local news. While most parents will go "ehhh I trust the government and if my kid is doing something bad I want to hear about it", the ones who actually care about their kids' rights will raise a huge stink and the district is more likely to not only be more upfront about this stuff but also probably make opting out easier.
Even if you send your kid to school with a paper notebook, the staff has always had the legal power to seize and read it. If anything, the school shootings era has expanded that authority even beyond the broad latitude it was granted before: https://www.ascd.org/el/articles/the-right-to-search-student...

Lmao Stavros we should share a laptop or something or just speak over the phone the way we run in to each other so often.

Its different reading it at the time because it factors in the context of the community at the time as well as the lived experience of what it was like at the time to be a member or participant in given discussions. With that contrast, you can then get an idea of the intent of those comments beyond just the words, as they are often (and in this case) reinterpreted through the lens of current day contexts.

Example: ask what people think of the hit TV show The Apprentice today in the present, then hop in a delorean and ask someone before the trump presidency or candidacy what they think of the show.

I'm happy to go back to using BitTorrent for everything if they insist on making the experience of paying for shows worse than pirating them.
The thing about a plain old USB hub is that it only costs $20-30.

This is a lot like what a YouTuber by the name of Randy has been doing: he decided to create his own game engine instead of using something like Godot/Unity/Unreal and it's been quite the adventure.

His main YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/RandallThomas/videos

His secondary YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/RandytheSequel/videos

Of course, he still has nothing close to an actual game and the progress he's made in a year is visually similar to what i threw together in a month in Unity for a freelance client once. Though admittedly, he's probably learnt a bit more about how game engines work by creating his own and it's been quite the educational experience, as well as something that actually has gained him a nice following of people who support him towards more videos.

But that's still not very conductive to shipping finished games. It's very much the same as people whose games tend to balloon in scope, another thing that's as damaging to finishing a product in a reasonable amount of time as writing your own engine is.

I do suspect that not everyone has the utilitarian approach to game development that i or other people like me have: who just pick Godot/Unity/Unreal for every single project of theirs without ever caring much about the inner workings of everything. Then again, i'm the kind of person for whom, for example, adding graphical effects to their game consists of utilizing pre-made shaders instead of learning to use the shader language properly and all that.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, but those are wildly different mindsets.

That's a great point. I suspect though, the critique applies to decision making by consensus more broadly.

Decisions made by consensus are not necessarily the optimal strategy (as defined by efficacy to achieve targets). This method simply reflects that.

However, the benefit of this method is that all participants are forced to be more rigorous about why they hold certain beliefs, and then making an attempt to aggregate those preferences to drive an outcome.
