This is a great move for Apple.

The game-changer for them, IMO, is to buy the rights to broadcast Pac-12 and Big-10 football (and ideally all sports).

I am an avid college football fan. Trying to find games to watch is a pain without some sort of lame ass subscription somewhere. I already pay for Apple TV + because it's bundled with other services that I use.

With the incoming threat of ESPN + Disney + SEC fracturing the college football landscape, Apple could provide the money, reach, and power to take some of the sport (and country's) biggest brands and put them front and center in front of millions and basically compete head-on with Disney. Next step is you broadcast all of the NCAA sports - baseball and volleyball championships, etc. Take what the Big-10 and Pac-12 channels were supposed to be and make them great and unbundled from cable TV.

In the coming years I think they're going to add live news with a focus on "quality journalism" as well. The Jon Stewart show and documentaries they are producing are the first drip.
If there is any truth in this world it is that shareholders absolutely call the shots. Anyone with any experience in finance can produce tens of thousands of examples of this - from shareholder lawsuits, to activist investors, to hostile takeovers, to board shakeups... The list goes on and on and on and on...
One of the rules here: "Please don't use HN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity."

Not that I agree with it, but I think it would fall under that. And all your post will end up "dead" automatically when they flag you as a self-promotion user.
Jason Scott's stuff is great. I particularly love his talk about his experience as a defendant in a 2 billion dollar lawsuit (completely frivolous).

OK, then. So when do I get to haul my noisy neighbor in front of The Hague for his crimes against humanity?
My bad then, I read your comment differently. I see a lot of people saying Fed shouldn't raise because it's a supply side issue, but blunting demand in these situations is exactly what the Fed is meant to do, since supply is fixed in the short/medium term
> But the actual ticketing/PR system? Change requires control.

The ticket system isn't for engineers. If it were for the engineers, they wouldn't be continually forced to use it. The ticket system is for the legibility of management or sometimes compliance (other flavors of management). This visibility is at the expense of the productivity of the engineers themselves.

> Change requires control

No, fundamentally, change is gated by control. The more control, the less the change, with sufficient levels of "control" leading to no change.
Installation in a regular system without Kubernetes? Right now I can install Grafana, Prometheus and Alertmanager in a regular Linux system using distribution packages, and just worry about those programs themselves. If I want to install OnCall, I need not only OnCall plus four other non-trivial dependencies that will still need configuration, management and troubleshooting. All for something that is going to deal with far less load than any of Grafana/Prometheus/Alertmanager. I honestly do not understand it.
They use wit.ai for the actual transcription, which belongs to Meta (i.e. Facebook).
At least where I live, it's mostly bikes and specific car parts that are accessible like the catalytic converter. A 20A multitool and steel cutting saw blades are not expensive (~$250 retail) and can get the job done very quickly.
When I feel like sleeping, I sleep. When I feel like walking in the park, I walk. When I feel like eating Stilton cheese with some barbunya pilaki and a nice burgundy, I eat and drink. When I feel like logging into HN to upvote various posts, I log in.

You get the idea. Nothing small like this basically matters. I'm well into my seventh decade and enjoying the ride, doing what I can to improve the situation but not getting too attached to stuff.
It also has very low trading fees (~0.1% per trade)
>The entire industry focuses way too much on 'experience with tool X' as a proxy for 'technical skill Y'

Strongly emphasizing this. This is HIGHY applicable to the analytics environment. As a business analyst who specialized in mostly ad-hoc development because it was the most value-add area at the companies I worked with.. I had a lot of trouble finding new work because I didnt use Tableau, or Power BI, or Looker, etc. I was some sort of fool for doing everything in SQL, Excel, and Python.

IMO the tools are great, and you need a much lower level understanding of analytical concepts to get value from them. But for some reason people kept getting the impression I would somehow be less effective with them because I dont use them. And I had trouble correcting them with the limited bandwidth that exists to communicate with a single applicant in the hiring process. If I tried to get right to the point, I felt myself appearing arrogant.

The carpentry analogy is very similar to how i described it. "I am currently using a ruler and screwdriver, and these tools provide lasers and power drills"
Is it just me or is: "freedom of speech is freedom from all

Once you have technical decisions being taken by non technical managers you are sunk. It's hugely insulting to experienced engineers and it's a major reason that people leave. People crave respect and if they perceive that they aren't getting it, they will do what they can to get out. You cannot micromanage engineers in this fashion and expect to have good retention.
Recession is a loosely defined economic term where the exact definition depends on who's reporting it, traditionally, it's meant 2 quarters of decline in GDP growth. But now:

The NBER defines a recession as a significant decline in economic activity spread across the economy, lasting more than a few months, normally visible in real GDP, real income, employment, industrial production, and wholesale-retail sales

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/recession.asp

But recession is a macroeconomic term that may not reflect the actual impact on consumers -- conusumers could be suffering through an economic downturn that's not technically a "recession".

Adding on to the Air Force thing, the shuttle program was being starved of money so the decision was made to accommodate the Air Force to get some money from the DoD. It wound up seriously disfiguring the original design of the shuttle and it never ended up doing any of the kind of missions the Air Force required the changes for.

The admin isn’t necessarily lying. They are trying to be responsive to peoples’ concerns by admitting there is inflation, which there is. Admitting there is inflation and they are taking steps is optics 101.

I agree that many outside of DC jumped on Larry Summers’ bandwagon and are screaming that it was never transitory. But that still isn’t proven. And lots of those people happen to be political adversaries of Democrats, so they have additional reason to try and pin another problem on this president, whether it is his fault or not (which is what your Democrat wish list of things that never happened/passed so can’t affect inflation looks like). I would also note that you are mixing fiscal and monetary policy as if the White House admin had control over either.

Printing money (expanding the M1 money supply at least 4x) and a near zero interest rate environment happened for a decade after 2008 with stubbornly low inflation. That doesn’t necessarily lead to inflation.

COVID didn’t dampen demand for more than a month. It changed where demand was aimed. Money that pre-COVID went to restaurants, concerts, and travel was aimed at different goods like home improvements, in-home entertainment, and crypto/stonks. Inflation didn’t show up when households were thrown $1600, unemployment insurance claims saw richer payouts, and PPP was issued. It happened after buying and spending habits changed when people came out of hibernation and were spite spending.

Again, I’m not saying inflation isn’t transitory. I’m saying I don’t think we can know for sure until the supply-demand mismatches created by COVID lockdowns and behavioral changes have returned to some equilibrium. Only then might we have enough info to be sure, especially because transitory opponents will not set goal posts for the definition.

The only one solid piece of evidence I see for some kind of sustained inflation was the Great Resignation, where people were changing their desires and expectations for work and life. Combined with very little immigration since Trump’s inauguration, and we have not enough supply of low paid labor.

I'm a regular reader of high-end real estate blogs, so frequently see these types of purchases. I don't begrudge anyone for being wealthy (so far they made money legally and "ethically"), but I like imagining what I could alternatively do with such sums.

For example, look at this beautiful school campus in Russia - https://archive.ph/z5x01/26aa0da221582b152ab472fafafe811a483.... It was built at cost of $80 million [1].

But, somewhere across the world, someone spends way more than that on an individual home. It gets more real than that...Marc Andreessen (also a major Coinbase shareholder) spent $177 million on a Malibu manse, dropped $45 million on a second one, and $34 million on a third one [2]...Jeez

So what? People seem to enjoy the comedy club that is US soccer. That's all that matters for Apple which is trying to serve its home country and largest market: the US.

Funny side note, Perl fakes fork() on Windows using (I believe) threads. I am not sure if that is better or worse than Windows having fork() natively, though.

Some people would probably argue that if you use Perl, you have much bigger problems to worry about, but that's another debate.
Apparently this guy came up with some pretty goofy optimizations like switching in and out of thumb mode to reuse the extra register file along with more "normal" stuff like self modifying code. I don't think there are any compilers that do that (and I think most people wouldn't want that.)

You can totally write GBA games in just C though. In fact I learned C writing GBA homebrew in my teens.
There is a lot i don't understand about how they view things in Cupertino.

I mean, there must be a lot of people at Apple thinking about the future - what it will look like, how media is consumed and then again how Apple can own that pipeline and ecosystem.

Both on the media side, hardware side and software side the offering is lacking in ways i find very strange coming from Apple.

For instance why haven't Apple just gotten the internet broadcast rights to a lot of sports to build a moat around it - not because it is popular but because they can. With Apples finances they could also get alot of popular sports on Apple TV as well.

Why didn't Apple buy any movie studios to kickstart Apple TV and get a big catalogue from the get go - seems like a no brainer.

Apple does a lot of stuff right, but there are more than a few areas where they fail to really provide value.
I sincerely have had no reply to any of these points.

Either bitcoin is a deflationary currency, in which case it repeats the servre financial crises of the 19th C. and early 20th C. in which an economy is imprisoned into a rate of inflation set by blind non-economic forces. In which, as an economy, is horrifying: consumer protection is impossible by design, the owners are the controllers (feudalism), it's entirely public (so you're entire economic life is available to be profiled by used by others), etc.

Or its an asset. If it's an asset its a ponzi scheme.

It's clearly mostly being held as an asset, and traded as an asset by criminals and dictators because it has some ponzi-value. This ponzi-value will disappear as soon as anyone actually tries to use this as a serious currency, as with someone planting a tulip bulb for the flowers... no one wants tulip flowers (lol).

No one wants an incredibly deflationary economic system, controlled by the holders of coins, forked on behalf of the landed gentry, with one's private economic history plastered across the whole internet, with incredibly slow transactions, with immutable histories, and so on.

As soon as anyone actually "plants the tulip bulb" crypto is, quite seriously, f*ked. No one wants tulips. If I were holding crypto the last thing I'd do is actually try to get any one to take is seriously as a currency.

The number of delusional far-right libertarians who dream of being feudal lords is the c.5% of young angry men it's always been. And likewise, if they ever achieved anything, the state would put a stop to that immediately. No one wants your tulips. But i'd just love to see you plant them!

Maybe not the privacy invasion potential but ... As we got started building amzn in the fall of 94, it was a no-brainer decision to not use cookies even though they were just arriving. The controversy around the idea was intense and it was far from clear that they would be a success as a technology. It is likely true that there was more attention being paid to the "what? it lets a remote server create a file on my driver?" angle than the privacy one.

> I don’t think it needs “powerful” hardware.

That depends. If you have multiple large projects open at the same time, it'll eat a lot of RAM, even if it won't be too CPU intensive.

I run it on a ThinkPad that has 32 GB of RAM, when I have about 6-7 instances of the IDE open and all of these services running locally (generally Java projects, the largest of which is around 4000+ source files), then it gets close to the resource limits.
Its very much our aim to make this mix of self-hosted and cloud services as easy as going all-cloud; but I agree we're not quite there yet.

Do you mind if I ask what isn't super-easy about linking self-hosted loki search queries with SaaS-Prometheus? You should be e.g. able to add a Prometheus data source to your local Grafana (or securely expose your Loki to the internet and add a Loki data source to your Cloud Grafana)
Not them, and I don't have ADHD, but I am the parent of a child with ADHD and I know plenty of people with ADHD, and it's not just "having trouble focusing". For a lot of people, it's a complete inability to focus on any one thing for any real amount of time. They can try as hard as they can to force themselves, but become disfocused and distracted despite any effort. It also often involves impulsiveness that is incredibly difficult to control, to the point that often it feels like it wasn't even their own choice. A common description I've heard is that it feels like somebody else was controlling them. My son would say when he was younger "My brain made me do it" or "my hands just did it on their own", and at first I thought it was an excuse, but after one destructive incident, he broke down crying at the age of 7 saying that he doesn't know why he does the things he does, and he can't stop or control himself, and he wishes he could stop himself from doing it. He tries to be good but then something takes control and makes him do destructive things or blurt out things he knows are wrong to say.

On medication now, he still has a hard time, but he is actually capable of controlling himself, he is capable of forcing himself to focus, and he's much happier. Now it is just a skill for him to work on, but in the past, it was an actual impossibility. It is a true disorder, not just "trouble focusing", and ADHD medication is a fundamental need for some people to function at all, and not comparable to a morning coffee.

In the past, these people were often assumed to be possessed, or insane, and were institutionalized, killed, or imprisoned. It's not like ADHD is a new epidemic or something.

Haskell is fine for production code. You just need to know what you're doing, and not go crazy with abstraction.
Yeah, it's after puberty -- but are you so sure it would be hard to miss? Small effects with lots of confounding variables and an enormous profit incentive to miss seem easy to miss.
I strongly disagree with 'People's socioeconomic background strongly affects their beliefs on how other people should behave in order to become successful'. I would suggest a lot of people from lifelong comfortable backgrounds sometimes have little idea of what it is like to be poor, but they all too often know all about broken families, drug/alcohol addiction and serious mental illness.

That's the main reason why I moved away from Coinbase years ago... no problem with Kraken so far.

In what way? If I'm storing 255 bytes of username/email/credentials/settings/etc, but pad in some fun way to 512 bytes prior to encryption, what in the world does knowing that the cookie is 512 bytes do you? You have no idea what data is stored. You don't know if there are 512 bytes of actual data, 128 bytes with lots of fluff, or anything at all other than 512 bytes. Hell, it could be 0 bytes of data and 512 bytes of random data that I submit to every single person that visits the site just to fuck with people like you! You seem like you need something to do ;-)
vfork() does the opposite of solving these problems. While there are a few functions that you can call after fork(), there is absolutely no function you can call after vfork() before exec(). You can't even write most local variables.

vfork() solves the problem of not wasting so much time on fork() when you're just going to call exec() afterwards (fork() does A LOT of work - potentially, anyway).

I share this sentiment, it's kind of a bummer. I ran into this non-stop in enterprise Java/C# development environments, more specifically in developers who are not "classically schooled" (i.e. bootcampers).
Fact of the matter was, they never needed to know about pointers to do their job. They only even knew the term from the "null pointer exception". I looked into the curriculum of various levels of IT studies and unless you get taught at university level there are little to no memory / hardware oriented classes.
It has started to get a bit better since the introduction of Java 8 (don't look up how long ago this was, ouch) and people got familiar with "lambda's".

That is true, but also in some places that is also the status quo: especially in countries where the developers don't get 6 figure salaries and don't create as much value to their respective companies.
