Yes. I don't think anyone knows for sure - like 7.12% seemed amazing at the time but we didn't expect an oil shock or a war in europe.

Bear in mind there are some other technicalities with i-bonds. They are all documented on the treasury direct website:

- you have to hold it for a minimum of 12 months

- there are two parts of the bond a fixed rate (currently 0%) which is set for the lifetime of the bond, and the variable rate which is tried to inflation

- if you hold it for less than 5 years when you withdraw there will be a 3mo interest penalty

- you're limited to 10k purchased per SSN, you can get over 10k if you get your tax refund in i-bonds.
Perhaps, but consider the words of those great gender theorists, The Kinks, in their hit song, "Lola" - boys will be girls and girls will be boys; it's a mixed up, muddled up, shook up world.
Note that this is only a standard for k8s. It does not work for anything else. As such, it is not a standard at all.
I don’t think that was due to Ive but more so that he couldn’t excel without Steve around.

It's also clearly stated in the article that this was one of the reasons that Ive was given the CDO role. So that he could do less of what Steve did for him.
Fun! I'm going to use this for data in a prototype I'm working on.

Judging by screenshots in the article, I don't think that UI is as bad as described. Actually, it is better than UI of private commercial financial institutions. It uses black letters on a white background, links are properly underlined, no annoying notifications from CEO, no full screen popups, no timers making you hurry, no attempts to upsell something unnecessary, no asking to subscribe for a newsletter, no deceiving descriptions that mention only good sides and conceal the risks.

Regarding virtual keyboard, of course it would be better to use physical keys, but for reasons I don't understand they don't have a wide adoption that they deserve.
I can see the logic.

Is there no way to purchase these bonds besides this website?
I'm surprised to see this comment not echoed by more people. Besides the inadequate sample size of older participants, my immediate response to the variance in the data was that I doubt the slope could be distinguished from zero.
Unpopular and potentially downvoted to oblivion opinion, but have to say this - this kind of reverences to Ive make me physically ill. He's still to be accounted -alongside Apple- as one of the culprits of today's trend of irrepairability (and the consequent planned obsolescence) on devices for the sake of 'minimalism' and Dieter Rams wannabe designs.
"Breach of contract" by one party doesn't mean a court will allow the other party gets to do whatever they want. But more practically, if the creator sells the work to Netflix, they're going to get sued, and they would then be on the hook (legally, financially and reputational) for proving in court 1) contract was breached, and 2) that gives them ownership of the work product that allows them to sell to another party. Against Disney's warchest.
Yes, this.

What were Ive’s most notable accomplishment after Jobs died? The author suggests he would have produced amazing things if he had retained more power, but it’s not clear to me why we should think this.
But they're not closing the websites - they're preventing people in the UK from accessing them.

To work with your analogy - this is like intercepting a shipment of newspapers, and blacking out any ads placed in them by criminals. Regardless of what the ads say - they're criminals, why should they be entitled to say "I'm innocent"?

Sorry - why should they be entitled to printing press amplify their voice. They can just scream in their cells - their free speech isn't being curtailed.

Who knows, maybe it is too dangerous to let them speak - but at least have the honesty to call it what it is - censorship.
All sequences are equally probably. But that's not the thing being asked to distinguish. It's whether a human being produced the sequence. Humans choose patterns. Distinguishing between 'random chance' and 'patterned response' is much, much easier statistically.
> Honestly to me the M1 era of Apple is the more exciting than things have been in years.

Yes, I feel like this is somehow still massively underappreciated. They pulled off a major hardware transition without big hiccups (I'm sure someone's going to point some I have missed in the comments /s) and launched a bunch of devices that are an incredible leap forward. I mean the baseline M1 air starts at $1k and is an incredible piece of hardware for most usage.
What ? is-it for real ?
It's nice to see how GCC developers have worked hard in recent years to keep their compiler up to the most current standard. It's sad the same can't be said about Clang which, despite the fact LLVM has basically EVERYONE behind, still struggles to implement the entirety of C++20 after more than 2 years. And this is without taking libcxx into account, which has been also struggling despite the fact is way newer and cleaner than libstdc++.

It's basically as if Google and Apple don't really give a damn about keeping up with C++ standards, so they always get pushed on the back burner.
> the apps I write are really small, really secure, really fast, accessible, highly usable, use very few system resources, leverage the latest Apple tech, have almost no external dependencies, work extremely well, and I write them very, very quickly.

And they're only available for one proprietary platform [1], no? Excluding half of the user base for phones (in the US), and probably much more for personal computers, seems like a really bad business move in many cases. And depending on the type of application, it could be considered a different type of accessibility problem. It's depressing, but so often we have to compromise technical excellence and even user experience for economic reasons; in this case, using a cross-platform technology to develop a suckier app that can reach all host platforms is often the smart business move.

[1]: Well, one platform for each form factor.

The former.

They ask about vacation, perks/benefits etc. ... basically all the fluffy intangible stuff.

The most classic one I remember was a guy had an interesting CV, interviewed reasonably well, then at the end of the interview his choice of question to ask was "where's my office ?".

The briefest of glances at his surroundings whilst being led to the interview room would have made it quite clear there were no private corner offices with a view on offer (it was a small open-plan office, the only two closed off rooms were the interview/meeting room and the kitchenette ... both had glass partitions, so it was clear to see).

Aside from the obvious, the other problem with the question was that the job ad did state this was a primarily field-based role.

So here is my figure drawing exercise: draw a ruler. This is easy to do with xfig. On many tools, it's hopeless, open office draw comes to mind.
MacBooks in particular went through a period with some notable downs--through some combination of design, engineering, and manufacturing missteps. Even my 2015 MacBook Pro had to get its display replaced (after Apple extended the warranty) to deal with a defect. But there was basically no MacBook between then and now that really tempted me to upgrade. (And the 14" M1 Pro is pretty much perfect for me.)

As a hint that sometimes you should do you research before making claims? Agreed.

The article is perfectly fine, but what I gather from the reactions of Go fans is that they are lacking in maturity and become too emotional if their toy is criticized.

Something the author explicitly mentioned in his article. You should read it.
I love the simplicity of IRC, and I'd use it every day if I found a community. The only places that I can find that are active are programming related (I am not a programmer) or piracy related.

Would it possible to do that, but extremely slowly? What counts as being "in the process"? Just designing your home might take you many, many years...
In fairness, the optimal way (in the limited sense of speed) to solve a lot of stuff in Clojure involves lots of type hints, primitive math and mutable arrays, so you're in a tough situation of trading performance for idiomaticity and looking dumb either way you go.
In the context of the tweet, it's not like we have a better alternative for "global scale DeFi" and not using it.

Looking at the top L1s, you either have centralized chain and thus no integrity (e.g. Solana), or chains that are cheap now just because of lower usage and lower token price (e.g. Fantom).
>Python definitely returns NaNs when required to by the spec (which is to say: whenever maths is happening with NaNs). I think you're getting confused between propagation and coercion.

It returns NaNs in absurdly unused mathematical operations like:

x=float('nan')
x = float("inf") * 0

Javascript returns it on any math operation on an 'undefined' which is another bad value likely to occur in JS. It basically never happens in practice for python. Yes python will propogate a NaN but the operations that instantiate a NaN are so absurd and rare that effectively NaNs aren't used or ever encountered in python.

I personally use floating point infinite to create initializer values that are always greater then everything else for algos involving min, but effectively I've basically never seen infinite used in code either. There is a hole here in that one day I may encounter the NaN because as shown above... usage of infinite is one of the ways to generate a NaN, but again this is so rare that effectively it never happens.

I am not confused. I believe you're just getting a bit pedantic.

Nice. I'm still continually baffled that there isn't a bigger push for the following fundamental idea:

Most of those people behind, care about the LLVM infrastructure and not so much about upstreaming clang stuff or improving ISO C++ compliance.
I've always found pandas really hard to use or reason about. I eventually get there but I don't like the code. Obviously subjective. I've never used another "data science" language though so I've no experience beyond it.

>I write native UIKit applications, using Swift. No PWAs, no hybrid systems (like React, Electron, or Ionic).

Sounds like a dream scenario. Pure native Apple development is without a doubt the most seamless, intuitive, and enjoyable dev environment I've ever worked with. And libraries like UIKit put anything the JS ecosystem has on offer to shame.

What type of applications do you? Are you contracted or a solo dev?
Indeed. Niche is a fairly large umbrella. If no other shop is using the technology you work with, nor wants to, then what would they want from you? At best you could argue "transferable skills" - but since they can otherwise get someone with all the experience on their checklist, your competitive value is nil. Should you be an exceedingly niche programmer, you're valuable because you're more difficult to replace. Leaving is also difficult, so there is the balance.
I mean, so is all of these inches. Why not just say 5 foot or 6 foot... Whole mixed unit is so oddly specific...
It's understandable that the Gnome Foundation would want to leave IRC. It goes against the Gnome ethos they've been pushing since 2014: simpler, heavier, fewer choices. It's not like any user input on Gnome IRC over the last decade did anything to save gtk anyway. gtkfilechooserwidget.c in both gtk3 and 4 is unsalvagable and they'd much rather work on high DPI screen support for mobile and other non-computer devices. Gotta follow what Apple does.

Jeeze, what does your wife think of that arrangement? :)
Ive may have done great work under Steve Jobs, but his work since Jobs' passing has been disastrous.

Let's consider Jony's performance on software design first. This is what some prominent people have said about iOS 7: The Verge wrote in their review: "iOS 7 isn't harder to use, just less obvious. That's a momentous change: iOS used to be so obvious." Michael Heilemann, Interface Director at Squarespace wrote, "when I look at [iOS 7 beta] I see anti-patterns and basic mistakes that should have been caught on the whiteboard before anyone even began thinking about coding it." And famed blogger John Gruber said this about iOS 7: "my guess is that [Steve Jobs] would not have supported this direction."

And what about Jony's other responsibility, industrial design? The iPod, iPhone, iPad, MacBook Air and other Apple products from Jobs era are all amazingly well designed and breathtakingly beautiful. But these products weren't designed by Jony Ive all by himself. He designed them under Steve Jobs's guidance and direction. Steve was the tastemaker. Apple's post-Steve products are nowhere near as well-designed.

Consider iPhone 5c, for example. The colors were horrid, and when you added those Crocs-like cases it looked more like a Fisher-Price toy than like a device an executive would want to be seen holding. That the 5c didn't do well in the market shouldn't surprise anyone.

As an Apple shareholder and customer I am glad Ive is gone.
Agreed. Both book authors and journalists face comparable financial motivations to distort facts for the sake of story telling (and in this case the author is also a NYT journalist).
Because this is a stupid move?

What on earth does this accomplish other than just fuck random people over?

And please spare the "it'll get them to revolt" line. It doesn't.

I've lived in Iran. Restrictions the west puts on the internet just makes it easier for the Iranian govt to create iranian only alternatives to them. It does not get people to go risk their lives to revolt.

And, if you think people will just revolt when they find out the fucked up shit their state is doing. The west is literally a counter point to that.
> I concede it's arguable which discrimination is of a bigger magnitude

Unfortunately you conceded nothing and chose to maintain a position which you not only failed to support no matter how many times you tried, it's also either insulting, dismissive, or absurdly ignorant. If you have to wonder which discrimination is of higher magnitude, against black people or short people you clearly don't grasp the full extent of what discrimination can be. You fail to understand how magnitude makes these 2 cases far more different than the fact that they are "discrimination" makes them similar.

Quoting MLK after wondering which discrimination is bigger (against black people or against people who are 5'9") just adds insult to injury.

You seem convinced that having a hairy mole on your face is exactly like being black or jew as far as discrimination goes. That being rejected by a woman for the mole is the same as being rejected and punished by society for your skin color. Who's to know who suffered more? It's "arguable" because they are "the same class" after all, right? So I concede that you're far more willing to dig yourself in the deepest hole trying to defend an indefensible argument than to actually concede anything.

I'll tell you one thing, no matter how you look like, if people hate your character they might use whatever insult cuts you deeper rather than something they have a personal issue with. So if you do go around telling people being short is like being black and they pick on your height it could be that they have a problem with what you chose to be rather than what you are by nature.

I was expecting something much more interesting from the title, or mere posting of the story. It seems it was picked because of the cost/impact of the bug rather than the technical surprise/complexity.
They aren't! Good catch; I'd assumed from the example. Another slip-up: ideographic should modify unified CJK, not the Latin letters.

Variation sequences for double-storied 'a' and 'g' were proposed, as part of the only Unicode proposal with substantial Latin glyph variations,[1] to address the problem raised by the answer to the FAQ,

Q: Can all glyph variations be represented with variation sequences?

…that there are separate codepoints for only the single-storied glyphs, meaning only fonts that assign the double-storied glyphs to the original ASCII codepoints can contrast the variations. The proposal went through two rounds of UTC,

- first as agendum C.4 of UTC 126 (http://unicode.org/L2/L2011/11015.htm),

- then rescheduled (https://www.unicode.org/cgi-bin/GetL2Ref.pl?126-A79)...

- as agendum C.21 of UTC 127 (https://unicode.org/L2/L2011/11115.htm),

- but ultimately wasn't acted upon (C.21.1 of https://unicode.org/L2/L2011/11116-pre.htm)

It did leave an extensive debate as precedent for what glyph variations are to be used for,[2] namely not localization as the proposal had largely intended. A shorter discussion in retrospective occurred when it was brought up again in 2018.[3]

They could purchase up to $10k in bonds. They exceeded that by $25 dollars. Each dollar or penny or half-penny is a separate portion of a bond in my mind, although I don't know how that works legally. So the excess purchase would be the $25 he was in excess of the maximum purchase. Just the way I interpreted it, but by no means the legal or actual way it's handled.
I thought about this early on when DDOS against russia were being promoted here on HN. Projecting DDOS across continents isn't practical. The entire idea is pointless, Oceanic cables are all going to have IPS running to better utilize them. They are a highly utilized precious resource. Later on, Russia released the IPs of ddos attackers and they were all from their neighbours. No attacks really came from the USA.

1. It is obviously a crime, not actual ddosing as that's difficult to prove. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encouraging_or_assisting_a_cri...

2. What prosecutor can find a jury that will convict you for being anti-Russia? They won't even consider wasting their time for a second charging you.

3. If you'll never be charged let alone be found guilty, it is illegal?

4. Morality and ethics? You are clearly in the wrong here. Don't try to add to the problem. You don't end a war by adding to it.
