> Just as an example: do you believe web apps are currently treated by apple in a lower tier than native apps?

Does this have anything to do with anything I said in my thread? No. So, this question is not in good faith, so why should I engage with it?

> if so, do you think

Do you think that ascribing thoughts and words to your opponent that your opponent never thought or said is a good argument?

It doesn't matter what I think or what I don't think when my argument literally began with finding incorrect arguments made in actual bad faith with no research in the "paper" made by OWA. Both you and OP couldn't care less, and you both try to deflect with "do you believe blah blah blah".

I could go with a not-so-fine-comb through the document and point out every misrepresentation, incorrect assumption and outright lies. I picked two. What followed is now open for the world to see.
Watching this makes me feel ill, and it has nothing to do with the content.

Seriously, were they holding a phone in their hand while moving minis around?
Maybe? Not sure they would be best suited for that? Just like we don't have municipalities produce their own smartphones.

However, as long as there's no government-enforced monopoly or subsidies involved, it's fine?
It seems a lot harder to setup correctly and use, and I don't really know what benefit I'd get.
Am I the only one who is thinking why they have developed in-house system for such tracking in first place? This problem (of analysis of traffic) could easily be achieved with Segment (a twillio product) and analytics tool like Mixpanel or Amplitude.
It's your responsibility to follow up in the sense that if you need them and they don't need you, then it's on you.

But if you're reaching out to them about one of their responsibilities in the organization, then it's on them.

"He dropped the ball" is a perfect reason for my not having accomplished a goal. Nagging might help, but it does not address the problem.

On the other hand, "avoid regression to the weakest" is something to avoid. Not sure how to avoid that without "managing" people.
FTA: “According to the study, Apple TV+ has the highest average IMDb score for its streaming library (7.08) for the second year running, although it still has the smallest library of content.”

I think ”because it has the smallest library of content” is closer to the truth. For Apple, Apple TV+ is just another thing that keeps users buying Apple hardware. For Netflix, it’s more “they better watch us than the competition”, so they need lots of content. Not all of that can be of the highest quality.
Tachyum: Too Good to Be True?
> Gun owners are shy. Thats why we prefer concealed carry instead of open carry.

Concealed carry also has the benefit of a criminal not knowing who is armed or not and thus can't really assume that any one person is a soft target, which is a great deterrence factor.
Oh I see what you're saying. Yes, while I'm not an expert I suppose Lambdas are less isolated than CF workers or Deno Deploy, while being pragmatically more isolated than e.g. a regular VM.
It's the right mindset. Cheap panels that can be mass manufactured and installed in places where there is plenty of room to do that are a great way to delivering lots of power cheaply.

The economic efficiency of the panels is function of how many square meters they take, how expensive those square meters are, how costly it is to maintain and service the setup, how long they last, and how expensive it is to buy and install them, etc. It's not just about the watt/square meter.

Less moving parts means less complexity, less things that can break, and overall lower cost. 10% more power at 2x the cost is a net negative.
> I don't think you fully appreciate how massive volkswagen is, as an organization. There is literally no place for whims and feelings at a company that big.

I do, I worked for VAG during Dieselgate and got a first hand look at the sheer monstrosity of a Megacorp that it is when dealing with the processes, and actually it has a long history of doing just that. In fact the way they got the engineers on board for the cheat device wasn't through a committee or board, it was upper management intimidating engineers to comply by way of threatening their continued employment there.

Furthermore, they could have gotten away with it after the first alarms were sounding off that they were being investigated, but they decided to keep doing it anyway.

It's really eye opening after having gone through the chaos of it all it first hand working within the TDi buy back program and dealing with Bosch and VW corporate in the early phases of the program, while doing a customer facing role and then reading Jack Ewig's book [0] now.

As for Tesla lay offs, they do this when they expand their lineup, it's like a calibration thing at this point.

Right after Tesla model 3 roll out which failed to meet its targets in '17 [1] which incidentally was days after my first round of interviews at Fremont they started to lay people off. These layoffs extended to 2018 ultimately led to shedding off 9% of total workforce by 2018 [2] when M3 ramp up was the only thing that could stop the never ending hemorrhaging that was likely to bankrupt Tesla if they didn't. I know this because that was the time that they asked me if I was still interested in the role and if I'd want to re-apply and take another round of interviews. I declined and told them I'd made efforts since then to make my way to SpaceX instead, the recruiter understood and kindly wished me well.

> Thunderbird is finally paying attention to the UI side of things

I wish they would not. I don't want any UI changes on my email client. Ever. It is one of my most important tools for work, so I don't want to tolerate anything that breaks or changes my workflow.

I am super happy user of thunderbird but if they keep doing this "modernizing" thing I will have to switch to a more stable mail client (after my current version that I never plan on updating breaks that is).
Used to churn out so many side-projects on meteor. My first application was a chat application, that our teams ended up using on several projects (this was before slack).

I remember that the effortless hosting they had setup was a dream. Still have never got that feeling again from any project.
Might be true for where you work. But it's not universal true.

Even in the same company I had teams where no one would turn on their camera and some where everybody would.
I gone this route.

I got different markdown editors on different devices and didn't want to use a public / cloud hosted git repo for my notes.

It works fine, as long you don't get in contact with iOS.

I got many devices and often let it sync my phone when I'm at home, because I'm struggling already enough with battery lifetime.

I also got it running on one of my dedicated servers, so I got an offsite backup, with systemd you can set it on autostart after an internet connection was established, so I don't really have to manage it anymore and I only see it basically in the logs of the packages that I update.
As the concept was presented originally in 2015 [1], and based on the fabrication portion, the authors seemingly spent 7 years to get to this point [2]. If in 10 years we are still using multi-junction, rare earth metal based panels, as an optimistic outlook on this work, solar panels could potentially reduce the amount of rare earth/minable materials required and instead use larger areas of solar concentration.

Expertly made, but not all of it is Lego. Lego doesn't make most or any of these hand weapons and helmets, so those come either from a clone/competitor, or were custom made.

As an idea, if a ship were to be electric with battery + solar as the energy source... the ship would be space constrained and obtaining more power with reduced mechanical complexity may be worth it in such industrial settings.

Unsure if this is what they're going for, but my initial question to myself was "Where does this make sense?" for the same reason you've highlighted.
If you have trouble with the concept of 'truth', just go by what's useful.

That's eg why financial newspapers often stick closer to the truth: their readers want to be able to play the markets, so need something with a bit of a reality check, instead of just playing to their ideological preferences only.

I strongly urge you to either hire a trainer to go over form or, at least, carefully watch some YouTube videos on form. Weight lifting is a wonderful form of exercise and probably the safest when done correctly. However, it's really easy to hurt yourself if you lift too much in the wrong way.

My quick advice is (1) go light at first [nobody cares how much you lift] (2) go slowly and try to feel tension in the correct muscles for the exercise if you don't know which muscles you should be feeling you should look it up (3) go over form very carefully with videos or a trainer

Either your wife is a massive outlier in skills, or the company just isn’t working her hard as they could be. As remote work opens jobs to the broader world, Americans are quickly going to find out that if they can’t generate the business impact of a Serbian or Chinese developer working 60+ hours a week they are going to find themselves in a very unpleasant situation. Some Jeff Dean sorts could do that in 5 minutes a week but most people can’t.

I wish we just had save to textual flat file as a more common standard app feature (which is simple/easy) and a plethora of separate apps that did the syncing from that (hard - conflicts/authentication, but only needs to be done once for all apps).

I have the git syncing tools but most apps dont save to flat file and the ones that do tend to require hitting export -> backup.
I assume it was the 70s. During the 80s, Lego included more and more green, brown, and especially grey, and also more and more weapons. First swords and spears for the knights, later muskets for the Pirate theme, and then blasters for Star Wars. They still don't like modern weaponry, though. I'm not sure if they have guns for their cops and robbers.

The real military stuff comes from clones/competitors, not from Lego.
In finance it's not that you pick up the phone and call the Money Laundering Hotline of the responsible regulator.

What you do is you contact the internal compliance department where they have the specialists with the necessary knowledge who will further pursue it.

If Wallmart wants to be in the banking business it's not too much to ask to set up such a structure.

The modern Russian state is the product of several genocides too, so this particular example is probably not correct.

From 1915 to 1945, probably over one million Russian Germans perished from unnatural causes under three successive Russian governments—those of Tsar Nicholas II, Lenin, and Stalin—chiefly by means of mass executions, forced labor, deliberate starvation, and brutal deportations.

The Holodomor in the Ukraine took place in the 1930.

In addition there was large scale deportation of ethnic groups, which effectively also amounted to genocide due to harsh living conditions forced on the deported.

A similar case could be made against Britain, with the difference that they were (mostly) done with genociding by 1930.
You prompted me to think of fitness - as someone who has accumulated fitness I still feel like I am suffering a lot when I run, and I can take that suffering as a bit like winging it. The difference is I am suffering/winging it at a decent pace, I'm accustomed to what suffering/winging it feels like and know that I don't need to give up, I believe I can push on.

And indeed there is always more fitness that I need.
Agree with all your points, think it's a bit subjective, but yeah... I loved how if I wanted to install my meteor project on a new machine it was just a couple of commands and everything including the database was ready to go. Contrast to these days, where you have 15 microservices, a dozen docker containers, ten million npm packages... :)

Basically it was a huge trade off: a 100% batteries included product that worked very well together because it was all made by the same people, Vs. the npm "bring your own whatever and wire it all up" approach. There are big pros and cons to both.

I think the comparisons to Rails are interesting, but actually not entirely fair either. Rails will always be primarily a back-end framework, no matter how much stuff is bolted on to its highly opinionated (of course) front-end toolchain.

Meteor was full-stack from the ground-up. In fact, Meteor was just "stack".
I can understand that argument for prioritizing younger people when there's a shortage of vaccines. What I cannot fathom is your reasoning for doing so. Sure, if there's 1 vaccine and 5 people who need it, the sad fact is that some will go without. You seem to view that as a positive thing, though. Terrible attitude towards human life!
Yes, for sure. Actually, you can be completely autonomous creating and maintaining the app. However, you could be also assisted by App Builder's team if you wish.
You are comparing the wrong databases together! Compare MySQL and PostgreSQL instead
In my experience analytical results have very little impact on practical deep learning. Examples:

- Everyone “knows” that the Adam optimizer’s proof is incorrect, but we still use Adam because we don’t want to redo hyperparameter search with a different optimizer that’s proven to converge but probably performs worse.

- Everyone “knows” that the Wasserstein loss for GANs has a better convergence proof, but nobody uses it because the generated images look like crap compared to what you get from stylegan* with their default config.

It’d be nice if ML proofs led to better performance, but that’s not often the case. I see far more progress from better data preprocessing and from bringing in knowledge from other fields like signal processing.
You have already read all you need: reusable launch carrier being reused extremely rarely.

An experimental vehicle turning out impractical is absolutely normal. Usefulness is exceptional. (Even the SR-71 / YF-12 was scrapped. The Space Shuttle was scrapped, not soon enough.) But scheming to keep a program running anyway is extremely common. (E.g., again, Space Shuttle. And now STS.) Coolness (e.g. SR-71) is an inadequate substitute.

It takes solid evidence to demonstrate usefulness. In its entire absence, the correct conclusion is obvious.

Agree. I would simply ask about team growth and turnover (also ask about engineering department in general). That's a totally legitimate question and it might even get you the answer you want without bluntly asking when they last fired someone. That's like being asked if you took a shit that morning. Like, yeah... and everybody does it, but it's not ok to ask someone about it.
I don't think it's s much about Lego promoting it, but giving in to demand. The more violent lines are consistently their most popular ones. The excessive amount of policing and lack of hospitals in Lego City is disturbing, but I'm sure their sales numbers dictate this. They used to have hospitals in the past, but I guess they never sold as well as the police stations.

That's not a Meteor issue. Running aggregations on fact tables at runtime is slow. On top of that, being a document store, mongo is not the best at aggregations. Then instead of using mongo you use minimogo (DB implemented in JS). Then you rerun that query all the time. Of course it'll be slow/expensive. :)
On level of individuals I would agree. You should be free to choose your customers.

But when you are the dominant player let's say 20%+ of market alone or with your partners it really changes. At that point no, you should not be able to choose your customers. Outside individual reasons like repeated fraud or attempts of such.

I know you said that you aren't looking for something like Anki, but: if you want to improve your general memory, there is really no better method than spaced repetition. It doesn't need to be Anki or even a software program; the Leitner system, for example, just uses basic flash cards.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leitner_system

I liken a spaced repetition system to any other tool that helps you improve basic functions. For example, while you could brush your teeth using your finger, it's infinitely more efficient with a toothbrush and even better with an electric toothbrush. It's just a tool to accomplish a particular physical task (in your case, improving your memory), so why not pick the best tool?

Otherwise, I've read a lot about the benefits of blueberries. And you really can't go wrong with sleep.

It is far, far more likely that the domestic/partner violence perpetrator will have a gun than the use of a gun to defend against such violence by female victims.

It is quite common that the perpetrators of mass shootings have previously had the police called to them by their partner. Rarely is anything done about this, but that's the motivation for "red flag" laws.

Syrian dialect still has few Aramaic words. The name of the city of Aleppo is a purely Syriac/an Aramic name and means the white city. The word Aleppo means white in Syriac. Since Aleppo is distinguished by its white limestone, it was called the White City.

Aleppo was an amazing city with rich linguistic diversity and rich musical tradition of several minorities. With Aramaic mixed with Armenian! All the inhabitants used to sing along in one neighborhood, each in his own house when one musician starts a tune, other neighborhoods would compete with their own musicians it was a magic experience that I was not lucky enough to witness. The Arabic dialect in Aleppo is very distinctive though, we used to make fun of it in TV series and in daily conversation.
Some other Aramaic words Martini: Mar means the master, and Tini is the fig, meaning the master of figs, , the shiah: the one who works by melting, and Touma: the twin.
Al-Bajuq: They are based on the effects of Al-Bajuq and use it to mean bad mouth.

Hi Vishesh, I installed the app on ios just now and tried to connect my repo on GitHub. It failed with the error - MissingPluginException (No implementation found for method gitClone on channel gitjournal.io/git)

I’ve requested a refund. But please don’t take that as discouragement. I want this workflow (editing markdown notes synced to git) very much. I’ve tried various ways to hack it, like connecting 1Writer (editor) to Working Copy (git client). Although both apps are very slick, the integration is not.

Editor apps are also reluctant to provide git integration for the reasons you listed, plus it will reduce future revenue from a hosted solution they could offer. I’m not too optimistic that there will be many apps in this space. That’s good news for you!

Best of luck!
This strikes me as similar in principle to how higher density flash storage is achieved: using more voltage levels in each cell.
Sometimes, I’m wondering about the value that a SAAS brings compared to a standalone application.
In this case, it seems that the SaaS part requires to think about user separation, payments, emails, and more. This seems like a lot when the goal is to generate images from some text input.

A small standalone app that generates an image that can be hosted with the article itself would be much easier to do.

With that said, I find it great to have a goal, scope it to a level achievable in one weekend and actually reach it.

Congrats
