I love my iPhone after switching a couple years back, but the only reason I do is because I can jailbreak it.

In first place I would rank a jailbroken iPhone, Android in second, normal iPhone in third.

Some reasons: no ads in most places, piracy, ability to change UI to my liking. Example: stock ios alarm app takes 3 clicks to change the alarm time, with a tweak it just takes one. There's a large and thriving community. The only limitation is that you need to be on one of the compatible ios and model versions, so I'm stuck on ios 14.3 for now.
If I had only two features that I would have Netflix implement, they would be:

- to add a setting to not show me stuff I've already watched (so that others who don't mind that, can continue to see their seen stuff).

- add a "don't show me again" toggle (I know I can dislike but maybe I'm just tired of seeing that one particular video and am fine with other such content)
You are right. When you trade crypto->crypto, the IRS views it as if you traded crypto->USD then USD->crypto.

Yesterday while on Netflix with my fire stick getting bored I wanted to leave. Suddenly I have to search the app exit button and it turns out it moved from the main menu on the left to the bottom right of the screen. A dark and desperate move.

First time I thought seriously about leaving for good.
Main thing is vastly better privacy. Messenger doesn't use E2E encryption and has no options for disappearing chats.

Facebook can and do read your messages at will.
thanks, now I've skimmed the verge piece and read your summary and have to admit: wasn't the main point of the verge that it's absolute ridiculous that the "apple approved"-way of fixing things requires two peli-cases of custom tools. This doesn't scale FOR THEM and one of the main points of criticisim in the verge revolved around that! The whole process is just designed so that in 3-4 years Apple will go to their favorite congress critters and say: "look, noones using this and it's expensive!!!". Then fast-forward to Rossmanns point 3.
Ridiculous argument. A nuclear power plant is much less of a concern as a target than, you know, Berlin.
In Germany you can still buy 40 kg sacks (but 25 kg seems the default?) but it always seemed very stupid to me. Rather move something half the weight twice than twice the weight once.
I'm not surprised the attack narrative is so popular and rarely challenged. Whether there was an actual attack or not, the attack narrative gives everyone a convenient out. The creator can disavow responsibility for creating a stablecoin that doesn't work and the investors get to feel like they weren't taken in by a con but we're instead attacked by an outside entity.
I cured my tinnitus for several years by taking 3mg melatonin @ 21:00 daily, thereby regularizing my sleep schedule. Then I slacked off when the melatonin stopped making me sleepy, and the tinnitus came back. It's also affected negatively by alcohol (positively, initially, but then the rebound anxiety kicks in) and also positively by benzos (again, unless I don't titrate after the dose I take to break a spike, and then there's hellish rebound anxiety and corresponding tinnitus amplification).

No. 1 learning for me: it's stress. Sleep, stress, and anxiety are all wound up in a big ball that vibrates at about 13kHz inside my head, slightly biased to the left.

Why do you think people upvote these discussions?
Great analogy, and it's what I think about every time I hop on Netflix.

The old Netflix was an absolute gold mine. There was sooooo much good content and almost none of it was their own. The place was overflowing with great movies from every genre. It had all these great movies because they were the only game in town and the studios hadn't yet identified them as a competitor. It was a novelty. "Hey sure, movies on the internet. Why not! Here's our entire back catalog. Go nuts."

Once everyone realized this wasn't a novelty the IP holders began to pull back. First it was increased rates, which meant Netflix could have fewer of the top items available for streaming at any given time. Fine, kind of annoying that I can't find everything I want anymore but there's still a lot of good stuff! Then the megacorps that own all of the studios began to develop their own platforms to cash in on the money train and stopped licensing their content to Netflix altogether. Instead they began to pile the IP up to be released exclusively on their own platforms. Netflix knew this was going to happen so they went absolutely nuts on the spending, trying to produce enough of their own content to fill the gap left by 60 years of the top IP that was (mostly) banished from their platform.

The spending didn't work because it turns out making high quality IP is really, really hard. Think of all the film and television IP created over the last 60 years. Not the hits, I'm talking about everything. Now think of the hits. Those are like, what, 1% of the total? Netflix can't fill their catalog to compete with who they used to be. It's not physically/creatively possible. That means they will never live up to the initial experience of using the site.

As a consumer, I'd prefer they shift to become something closer to HBO/Apple TV+. A company that focuses on high quality, carefully curated productions. At least then I would have a good reason to continue subscribing. As it is, I don't find much value in the endless stream of schlock they've been producing to try to fill in for the lost IP. Quantity doesn't have a quality all its own when it comes to entertainment.
I use concepts on an ipad pro for drawing and i bought the subscription for a few dollars.
I prefer it over other drawing apps for ipad because it's vector based.

I went over to android from iPhone fully after 2018. For work (apps) I needed an iPhone and the company shipped me a 13 max. Although I like the openness of the android a lot better (it’s not Linux but at least I can run a compiler on it), the 13 max is the nicer phone for me. Objectively my android phone specs are more or less the same, but subjectively, the iPhone simply outperforms it in every way. The android camera is better on paper but it really isn’t to me. And that goes for most things on this phone. So now I always bring my android and iPhone both (with different sim cards), however, I use the iPhone more. A lot more. The android has one thing that is vastly better; battery life and fast charge. The iPhone battery life is awful for a 1500$ phone and it charges so slowly compared to the Samsung flagship phones.
> because in recent years they had to shut down their nuclear plants during heatwaves, when the rivers they use to cool them got too warm

This is an ecological concern, not a technical one. If the French are ok with frying fishes, they can let their nukes run.
You don’t need to respect him but continuing to disregard the intelligence of people you’re against (or not ) arbitrarily isn’t a smart move. Zuckerberg has proven beyond doubt that he’s more of a visionary than all other tech bro cEOs he gew along side.

Allow me to be cheeky and save you the suspense: it's half.
The Journey of AI from NLP to NLU
Nuclear power plants can't be used for residential heating, residential cooking, chemistry, and industrial processes like making glass for solar panels.

At least not without changing the infrastructure for that completely. Which is not going to happen overnight. And even then it can't replace chemistry.

So, no, Germany couldn't have. No matter how many Internet armchair commenters repeat this.
Would this be extended to tunnel an SSH session over WhatsApp?

While obviously not super convenient, it'd be interesting to type commands and get results.

Of course any interactive terminal wouldn't work, but for simple commands, executing scripts and seeing logs etc. this should work.
That's nice and all and I don't live in the US, but just imagining the way you would track all of this makes me shiver. Anyways, from my point of view (and also many countries point of view), the entire point of realized gain tax is to be the income tax for stock traders... i.e. income is what the government typically collects taxes on... when I convert BTC to DOGE (or whatever), there is no income, so there is nothing to tax. Otherwise you're getting into a dangerous territory of soft banning crypto trade by way of purposefully obtuse tax code. Ban on a good by abusing the bureaucracy instead of properly dealing with it through the voters and their representatives.
Chinese real estate would be considerably better than crypto company loans, tbh.
If it’s not an emergency it seems logical they can’t start an operation without consent.
East Asia is a bit of an exception though, since 36%[1] of the population gets mega-crunked on one beer.

So to me that sounds less than perfect. Enterprise systems tend to be large, so it can be hard to keep track of the flags, and splitting flags can become a source of bugs. A simpler solution would be a (global, singleton) class that offers an interface to customisation. Of course, that might not be possible in an existing system, but it offers advantages over flags.
What you’re describing is one of the possible workarounds, yes. Veterans have become accustomed to doing these things over the years.

But generally speaking I think that this kind of feature is very useful. It conveys intent, so browsers can optimise things if they choose, and developers get to have cleaner code for free.

Secondly there’s plenty of devs and future devs out there who appreciate that there’s a clear way to do this. Workarounds always have caveats and don’t necessarily play nicely with other features.
The 'wire process' is not "multi-day-long", plus a huge number of banks now participate in Zelle, which can be used for instantaneous fund transfers with zero fees. The biggest problem with Zelle is that it looks and feels like a circa-2002 web application.
I wonder about practical implementation of this in large scale? So it absorbs and releases CO2, but how do you do releasing to essentially environment where it is reasonable to capture it back?
Did you ever used Pulseaudio. Some years ago sound was not working at all, the only way to make it work was to kill pulseaudiod and stick with ALSA. Now it started working and is being replaced. No comment.
First and foremost, thank you very much for taking the time to answer my comment.

>At the scale of hundreds of engineers working on tens of codebases, who hasn't?

It's not about the mistakes, but about the way you create new stuff. It always feels that canonical try's to copy other technologies but not to make them better but to own them (snaps).

>counterpart in a rich discussion, rather than a one-dimensional anti-everything-Canonical mouthpiece?

I am totally not against canonical, it's extremely important to have a professional alternative to rpm-based (RHEL,SLES) distribution's, i am just not happy how ubuntu/canonical changed in the past ~10 years, maybe you see it as hate, but for me it's a bit more like a friend who betrayed me, i know sound's stupid, but ubuntu was that friendly distro who send free disk's around the world and is now the most proprietary one who had a Amazon search function.

>But why hate on me, and Canonical, when we literally put everything we had on the line for that vision, but screwed up?

Wait, no one hates you...quite the opposite.

>Why be an ass to the sorts of people who are willing to put every ounce of strength they have into something that you really wanted to see succeed?

Then stop brewing always your own soup, or at least make it better then the rest. Linux already has a massive NIH-Syndrome, and here i have to admit that Ubuntu/Canonical made the right choice with ZFS, when others (SLES) use that terrible BTRFS.
> I think there are other reasons not to teach go than this one.

Mind elaborating? I'm very interested in this topic!

I made a rather large survey mostly among the European go players as to why they play go, learning why one shouldn't play/learn/teach go (pick any) would be even more exciting!
> saving face is more important [for Germany] than Ukrainian lives.

I understand that the propaganda works, but lets not fall in the error of blaming Germany for this war. Germany are victims in this situation, not aggressors.

This narrative just divert the focus from the only responsible.

Paying somebody for a product will not force him/her to invest the money in crimes. Russia could have spent this money in buying ice-cream for each Russian child or anything. If they choose war crimes and promoting rape and murder instead improving the Russian's lives, is not Europe's fault.
It hasn't been a problem for the backend or devop teams either.

The network load is... probably not something you, or me, can so offhandedly talk about here without the actual data. It depends a lot on which images are most used. I do know that they did in fact reduce a lot of bandwidth by serving pre-sized thumbnails instead of larger images. Typically there's only a few -3, 4- different sizes that matter; these can be -and are- cached by the browser. In this case, most visitors seemed to never need the full-size format, so that's a lot of saved bandwidth.
Flags are misused if their meaning is entangled, e.g. flag A is meaningless when flag B is set. In this case, you don't need flags but states, as TFA points out (with far too many words, IMO); in C lingo, when this happens you should switch from booleans to enumerations - because programmers worth their salt won't have entangled flags in something designed from scratch, it is more something that can happen when you add features.
Isomer – Decentralized Application Framework
Except now it won't sync older messages and sometimes messages only get delivered to your phone but not the desktop. They took a decade to roll out a desktop app and even then it's a mess. WhatsApp has been degrading under Meta's ownership.
That's kinda the point of an interconnected electricity grid, it allows you to import the cheapest energy available. I don't get the argument here. Sometimes it's renewable, sometimes it's gas, sometimes it's coal, sometimes it's hydro, sometimes it's nuclear...?
Doesn't the notion of using anything "bleeding edge" sort of go against the fundamental law of production? Doesn't development sound like a much better fit for getting to know Current and the future of FreeBSD? I wouldn't speak for anyone else, but my ideal production environment is one where no one even thinks about the operating system, because it wasn't broken before, still isn't broken, and is expected to keep on not being broken; it just does its thing. Because whatever production is doing that is critical, it isn't system operating, it is something else, some big data manipulation, database something, or application crunching or generating something or people using the systems to produce. Maybe others have been more fortunate, but I've never had much success fixing something that isn't broken.

What is the downside to using Stable, or maybe even... Stable from two whole number versions ago? Honestly, adding features to production is, as a grey beard once said to me, paraphrasing, as useless as nailing jelly to a bull, or something along those lines.
I switched to Android recently because iPhone battery life out of the box is complete shit.

Now I have a phone that has a 13,200mAh battery that truly lasts for days.
IMO once the netflix model was validated it was impossible to license enough good titles (they knew they were valuable).

Netflix pivoted to making their own shows under the premise that they have all the data. This is outside of their tech expertise and creates average content.

I believe netflix should create video editing tools (commoditize your complement) and make it easy for almost professional film makers to upload content. The area between youtube and professional films could discover lots of talent and keep those rights cost cheap.
The logic was "if we depend on each other, Russia isn't going to pull crazy stuff". Which works with rational people (and after Gorbachev and the German reunion, the perception was that Russia is rational), but not with Putin.

And you may have noticed that Russia is not cutting off delivery of Russian gas to Germany. Which they would if the damage was unilateral.

Also, electrical heating is one of most wasteful and damaging ways to do heating, and Germany has been moving away from electrical heating for this reason for decades now.
USDC doesn't stand for USDCoinbase it stands for USDCentre, where Centre is a private consortium between Cirlce, Coinbase, and Bitmain.

So no, don't think there is any way to see the actual backing.
There is something about those screenshots that makes XP looks good. I remember when it came out we all thought it looked like a Fisher-Price toy. A very un-serious and unprofessional aesthetic.
Nuclear power for residential and commercial real estate heating is pretty simple if it were accepted. Main issue is distance between production and consumption and then delta of heat. But later could be solved with heat pumps.
The 2010 and 2012 energy efficiency directives guarantee (EU-wide, not just in Germany) that all buildings will eventually transition to low-energy buildings, but this is expected to take place by simply building new buildings to stricter code, not by upgrading all existing buildings in the EU in a few years. It's unlikely that there's industrial capacity for that.
> This is how you get a 2008-type crash - loans which seem to be unrelated but are tied to a common market.

How does this happen again 15 years later? Is it because we ineffectively dealt with 2008? A result of the repeal of Glass-Steagall? Or have we over regulated banking to the point the miscreants went underground to build things like crypto?

I don't get it. Crashing over and over doesn't seem good for anyone.
But it’s only string…
The best impermeable rock (ie. granite) formations for this purpose are in the eastern US. Congress excluded them from consideration as sites when they mandated the selection of Yucca Mountain as the sole site in 1987.
> Or is this about repetitive strain?

Mostly. In your gym lifting, do you do 300 reps a day? For five or six days per week? For 48 weeks of the year? For ten to forty years? I bet you have more rest days than that.

> is this about technique?

Technique is impossible to apply consistently in blue-collar jobs. You're not necessarily standing on a flat, stable, firm, grippy floor, lifting a stable, ideally-shaped, easily grasped, rigid, non-slippery mass straight up and down close to your torso. There are wind, rain, cold, heat, and much more to deal with.

> Labourers can be taught

This is broken thinking. For health and safety, tasks must be redesigned to fit humans, not the other way around.

Edited to add: humans get tired, get distracted, take shortcuts, hurry to get the job done, or simply make mistakes. Any task design that doesn't account for these and still keep people safe is faulty.
Computer Humour
That's a very simplistic way to look at the situation.

At a large trade show, I once ran into a retired nuclear engineer and we had a long conversation: he had been called back into service by the state out of desperation. There weren't enough knowledgeable folks who could do safety audits of the plants for TüV. This was 14 years ago and things would be far worse today.

Restarting a complex industry (and it's ageing plants) that's been out of favor for literally decades is difficult and in this case also dangerous.

I'm a (German) physicist by training and worked at a nuclear research facility at the time.

But do we think this was a belief shared by everyone until their deaths, even the people who were sacrificed? Or was it a belief primarily instituted by people who thought they, themselves, would never be sacrificed?
What's different about Germany when it comes to piracy? And what about using a PeerGuardian blacklist to block known trackers?
The US was behind the rest of the world with chip-n-pin by nearly two decades. That has nothing to do with it. The fact is manual can do things that automatic can't and it's just dangerous to have the latter in some situations.
The way I understand it is that the parts get the Apple logo sharpied out permanently, not just for the customs purposes. He's quite open about not being authorised and using parts that come from broken devices or are bought from unofficial sources. I believe I've heard that multiple times in his videos. This issue from the post seems to be 100% on the supplier, and nobody getting the repairs done was getting deceived (as long as he makes that clear to the customers as well)

Almost all of them are tankies (wherefrom they earned the name), so I'd call them that. Chomsky isn't one.
Low frequency physical vibrations of the body tend to improve other neurological conditions as well. Never was able to find any official explanations for it, but experienced this on several occasions.

My personal hypothesis is that the vibrations may somehow stimulate local physical interconnectivity in damaged tissues leading to their improved recovery.

Riding a car has a similar effect, especially when the road is a bit rocky.
Sure, or you vote for our managers, who do that.
Technologically distinct market, even if economically parallel, Glass-Steagall wouldn't have prevented this. The crypto companies have operated almost entirely outside of regulatory oversight prior to the last 18 months or so.
IIRC USDC is run by Circle, a separate legal entity. While CB and Circle might be controlled by the same people, they are not subject to the same legal disclosure requirements.

In this case the damage will be limited to a bunch crypto companies. The issue before was it hit companies we relied on for things like mortgages and current accounts. Crypto companies can just be allowed to fail and no one except their users will be effected.

Hence they are not regulated.
