The problem is that the author probably likes manhattan for various reasons that you can't just move outside of manhattan, like:

- family nearby

- friends nearby

- as a consequence of the above two: support network is in manhattan

- enjoying the local parks/scene/etc

I grew up in <midwest plains city> and then moved to <rival midwest plains city> for a long while after college, eventually moving back to my home city because that's where all my family was.

It was a hard move in both directions and all things considered, I didn't even move that far. In city B, I missed my family and the stuff there was to do in city A. But after moving back, I now miss a lot of the things we did in B. And I don't even consider myself to be someone to particularly likes leaving my house!

Advice that tells people to "just move" is pretty shortsighted, I think. I really doubt OP moved to manhattan just to be able to be snooty about living in an expensive city, or something, which is honestly how I kind of read these kinds of advice - though it's probably not a very charitable read of your argument, for which I apologize.
It’s probably because car headlights and grilles become squintier and angrier every year. People drive too much and everywhere they look is angry car faces.
Yes, it is. All of the participants in an iMessage chat have consented to have their data stored by Apple. We can all do rough evaluations on how well we think Apple can protect our data.

The wording in the Act appears to not place constraints on exactly what services must be able to interop with iMessage, and it says Apple can't preference iMessage. So presumably the blue bubbles have to go. This means that when chatting in Messages now, one will not be able to know whether it's Apple alone protecting the privacy of the conversation, or whether the weakest link is a company of a single person that started this week using an OSS package to spin up a new messaging app on a Linode VM and was able to achieve parity in iOS messaging simply by virtue of this Act.

That's a very different situation than the status quo.

Similar logic applies to the App Store and payment details, but messaging is egregious because other participants in the chat can make (and potentially change) the security posture of the chat without your knowledge.

(Edit, adding reply to this part.)

> Are you arguing that it's impossible for Discord or ICQ to implement the same feature set as the native iMessage client?

No, I am saying that it's going to be trivial to implement the feature set. I fully expect there to be OSS libraries to implement the iMessage client.

The issue is that when people use iMessage and see a blue bubble, they also know something about how the encryption keys are handled & who does the handling, etc. This Act as written appears to allow any person to install an OSS iMessage server on a VM and achieve OS parity with iMessage, and Apple is prevented from indicating that others in the chat may be compromising the security of the chat. I used ICQ and Discord as examples because Apple exchanging my encryption keys with ICQ is definitely compromising a core feature of iMessage.

You also don't need to pay it to own a vehicle. You are allowed to own a vehicle without paying this tax as long as you promise not to drive it on the road (SORN). So by that logic it's not a vehicle tax either.

Also, bicycles are vehicles. So surely they should pay Vehicle Tax as well?

A more accurate name would be the "Using a Motorized Vehicle on the Public Road Tax". Let's abbreviate it by dropping all but the last two words. :)
Now that there's a way out, however, you can be forced out if e.g. you have to install an app that isn't available in the App Store because its developer saw an opportunity to roll their own.

Not saying that the trade isn't worth it, just that, well, now that Pandora's box is open, it's coming to get you, even if you don't want it to.
> I have a theory which I can’t substantiate, just anecdotes and conversations I had throughout the years. But, I’m convinced a lot of depression/anxiety stems from thinking too much and that in turn is caused by an ever complex word with looser and looser guidelines or norms.

This is not a new theory. It's called negative self talk, and fixing that is one of the core approaches in treatment of anxiety and depression.
This is like the right/left brain generalization that everyone seems to still believe in.
There is a "Free Airport Wifi" WAP saved on my phone from Mexico City since my iPhone 6. It is long deleted, but it has migrated through the years to my current iPhone 13.

Its residue is left on my phone in only this way: Whenever I connect to a new wifi point, after typing in the password, my phone will say it cannot connect to "Free Airport Wifi". I have to type the password in again (usually one someone just read to me) and connect again.
How does Apple have a monopoly? The only thing that comes close is the App Store, which requires you buy an iPhone, which is not the most common mobile device.

https://gs.statcounter.com/os-market-share/mobile/europe

Further, other phone companies start from nothing and become quite successful in market place, and some fail, but consider OnePlus - they decided to make a "Flagship Killer" and are still delivering high quality devices.
What do you mean by "expectation"? One day on call, one day paid overtime; anything else is abusive.

There should be no incentive to require or avoid "free" work, only advance planning of who'll be on call (with more available engineers doing more turns).
And what in the new law would prevent them from continuing to make the same "reliable without surprises" iPhone experience you seemingly enjoy? I don't see anything that prevents them from saying "We can only guarantee an Apple-level experience by using apps vetted by Apple and download directly from the official Apple App Store." Most companies that I'm aware of don't have to warranty issues arising from after market/3rd party accessories. I mean, is Apple responsible if I download software from x company on my mac from x company's website? Why isn't the laptop ecosystem "all messed up" if you can install anything from anywhere on your macbook and use any payment processor? The only thing this really would do to upset Apple is taking away some of their walled-garden revenue, like processing fees. I'm not sure why a watch or phone or tablet needs to be treated opposite of other traditional computing devices. Just because it's a different form factor?
You don't need to believe that the current state of affairs is "fundamentally ok, or very close to it", quite to the contrary. What you need to believe is that the current state of affairs could be made much worse if one is not careful.

I think most people agree that through history we've made a slow climb up a mountain. And it's always easier to fall down, than it is to continue climbing. One could look down into the abyss and say "we must be careful not to trip", or one could look up at the top of the mountain and say "we must get there at any cost". In this metaphor I'd say the revolutionary would be looking at another peak in the mountain range and say "we must descend into the abyss if we want to make it there".

Bus Rapid Transit calls when you are proposing a subway or a tram, promising great things at a low price. After you agree to settle for a shinier bus line instead of the nice, fast, reliable transit system you originally wanted, the value engineers get to work compromising the design, and you end up with... another bus route. Maybe it has a different color of paint this time.
So which DHCP option do I use for DoH? All I can find is some expired RFC draft[1].

Oh no! Didn’t happen to me in my Honda with my iPhone 7, but I guess every car is different.
If you have the budget for it, I strongly recommend Criterion Channel as another source for these.
Super interesting device and I'm ordering one.

I... have not found that to be the case at all (my van's certainly not made by Apple, nor is its stock entertainment system—my BT headphones aren't Apple, my BT keyboards and mice aren't Apple, my monitor and electric piano aren't apple, et c.) but it could be I've just been lucky.
If you automatically update your dependencies all the time, you will constantly get new bugs, issues and sometimes even malware.

If you don't update your dependencies all the time, you will be vulnerable to old bugs and issues.

The current software engineering paradigm has no meaningful answer to this, no matter what "security experts" tell you. In a sane industry this realization would lead to a change of the paradigm, but people in our industry seem to be only doubling down.

"Use a build tool to do dependency checks!"

And then what?

"Only update libraries if they have vulnerabilities."

So, should this be a manual process where I have to dig through obscure warnings every time I build something?

"No, you can automate it!"

Congrats, you've just outsourced the decision making process about which versions of libraries to use to some 3d party. You've also made your build process reliant on yet another online service.

"But it's not a hard dependency, you can still build if the 3d party service is off."

So the exact software you compile will depend on whether or not you can connect to a 3d party service? Do you understand the actual implications of this?

Etc. People with clever advice don't seem to think it through. We're fighting fragile complexity of too many tools ducktaped together by ducktaping more tools to the whole setup. Again and again and again.
I think the difference, and what Carlsen is doing well in this case, is just backing out now instead of trying to defend his title and then getting 5 games in and just going "I hate this and I want to leave. I forfeit".

That would look even worse for him, and be unsatisfying for his opponent and the public. In this case, he realizes he doesn't have the passion for this event any more, so he's doing the best thing for the sport and just letting two people who are still passionate about it compete instead of doing the mental-sports version of playing injured.
Finally mentions poll() and not only select() !
No. EU is governed by seven distinct institutions with distinct roles and interests. You can read more about them here : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutions_of_the_European_U...

The high number of institutions taking part in governance is in part responsive for the reputation of EU to be "slow" to act but it also means that it's incredibly hard to bribe because you have to bribe different institutions that don't even share the same mindsets.

Not arguing there that EU is perfect (it's far from it), but it's really better that what most people think about it, which is because local governments always use the "it's the EU rules, we can't do anything". The thing is, they also omit to remind that ministers and head of states are part of two institutions and that they choose the council of the European Commission. So they are the ones making the rules and those rules have to be accepted by the democratically elected European Parliament.

So when a politician in europe blame the EU for anything, they blame rules that they wrote themselves and that have been approved by a democratically elected parliament.
At the state level, sure, but local roads are paid for by local governments using local general taxes, no? A random suburban residential street is not usually getting gas tax money.
EOL libraries are themselves vulnerabilities. It's not really good to even have this reachable on the classpath, in cases like the grandparent, you should look at removing the class from inside the JAR (or removing the JAR itself) if possible to ensure that the vulnerable code cannot get called under any circumstances.
What is that replacement? java.util.logging?
I'm not sure how this would mean anything for a service provider like AWS. You can already install and run whatever version of your own services you want on bare EC2s, and if you don't want to use the xen hypervisor for some reason, you can buy bare metal instances and do whatever you want with them. It's already possible to run OpenStack on AWS if you really want to do that.
My read is he's being honest and will not in fact enjoy playing the World Championship.
I didn't say no one has to work. I'm saying maybe people don't want to devote themselves to jobs that are in the process of being automated away. I'm saying people are rational actors and are choosing not to work those jobs so they can retrain themselves for a more sustainable job.
I'm not sure what you mean by "statically link then scan" in the Java context. The fingerprint of the vulnerable class files are the same no matter where they are stored. They could be bundled together, or shoved in a fat jar, or exploded into all their classes -- but the class file always is distinct and identifiable.
IME, this doesn't happen in any of my Subaru vehicles. It picks up where I am in Spotify with no issues. Whether via carplay or connecting via Apple's Car integration.

That said, I have had this issue when connecting an iPhone to a '11 truck via USB. It tries to treat it like an iPod, and consume its default playlist (all songs in Music, sans shuffle).

So this is probably the bluetooth equivalent being done by the cars - treat it like an iPod that the entertainment center should be in charge of.
I am not sure about this - does install any software also mean system software or is it only meant to allow installation from sources other than their own app store? To allow system software installations, Apple (and other mobile device manufacturers) will have to allow unlocking the bootloader. (But that alone is limited as without the hardware information of the individual parts, developing an alternate OS for such devices is painful work as you have to essentially reverse engineer everything to create the device drivers - as evident with the snail's pace that Asahi Linux are progressing at to port Linux to Apple M1 and M2 ARM processors. Unless ofcourse, the DMA also forces them to publish the hardware literature so that other system developers can use it, which would be a real game changer ... ).
> There is no "road tax" in the UK, is it?

Vehicle Excise Duty since 1920 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vehicle_Excise_Duty

Road funding in the UK is just from the general pot of tax money.

There are a lot of anti-cyclist types in the UK that always incorrectly (or ironically, correctly) claim that cyclists don't pay road tax (no one does) and therefore shouldn't use the road, even though just about every cyclist is an adult that pays UK tax.

I certainly expect the UK, and every other country to tax EVs by mileage within a decade, and additionally toll charge on major routes, almost certainly via cameras (to also fine you for speeding), or require all cars to have a GPS blackbox (which let's face it, isn't expensive now).
if you need to use a particular app, you can only get it from a third-party store that you don't trust

This will be a problem but the solution is not to transfer your freedom to choose to Apple and just let them decide which third party apps you are allowed to use.

In some cases that will mean making a hard choice between accepting the risk of using the third party app store, or accepting that you won't be able to use certain apps. The benefits are significant though - your device will actually be under your control. You will be able to do all the things Apple prevent now.
What makes Safari a bad browser? Sometimes it feels like dev forums rate a browser entirely based on the dev tools.

For the average user Safari behaves identically or slightly better (battery life, privacy defaults, integration with the OS for login and payments) then chrome and Firefox.
I don't think people are trying to claim it's unimportant in general, to anyone, they're suggesting that it's completely unimportant in this conversation about how slow and boring championship chess matches are.
Then do that instead of constantly spamming HN?

Maybe @dang / moderators needs to step in a do something about this, because it doesn't seem like you actually understand what spam is/isn't.
You have nothing on which to base that observation and as such, you're not even wrong as your comment is meaningless
The entire history of Android is filled with malware stories. Google has gotten better about moderating their PlayStore, but there have been plenty of flashlight apps or similarly dumb apps that are just rootkits, bitcoin miners, or more malicious forms of malware.
As a speaker of multiple languages, I disagree. There's no possibility of HN turning into a non-English language site just because a few threads are not in English; HN will always be first and foremost an English language site (and it's too long set in English for it to be anything but), and it's actually quite nice to be reminded of the existence of other conversations by other language speakers rather than only English. I and many others may not be able to participate so directly in them, but there's always Google Translate.
Agreed! Around the time the lockdown happened my band discovered bandlab.com, another online DAW. The lag/performance is a little slow to do serious recording (though you can get by by making an audio recording and manually shifting it a few ms in the interface), but it's a fantastic way to share songs/ideas back and forth. Often what some of us do is record tracks in our own local DAWS and upload the track wavs to bandlab. At the very least it allows us to:

- mute tracks easily, change volume on parts

- add tracks where we can upload alternate/extra parts

- visualize the structural flow of a song

- general cut/splice play around :)

the company that makes bandlab also makes a desktop DAW called cakewalk. It seems to have a nice feature where you can sync it with bandlab, which would be killer. It's windows only so I've been unable to try it out though

You wouldn't be flying this over bodies of water which could have rogue waves. Those are generally open sea scenarios, and this is really only practical for hops between relatively close bodies of land, over water. There are a lot of such places around the world, even some where the water is technically connected to an ocean.

In terms of risk of life, it's probably less risk than taking a 180 mile bus ride... even if it were crossing water which could conceivably have a rogue wave appear.
Take it to an Apple Store and have it replaced. Seriously, that isn’t a normal experience.
Supposedly AnyDesk was started by ex-TeamViewer employees.

Personally I've been very happy with AnyDesk after migrating 3 years ago from Teamviewer. Seems a bit more performant too.

I've had no commercial nagging from AnyDesk despite using it on about 20 computers. (15 of my own + tech support for friends and family)

TeamViewer got nasty quite quickly.

RDP is nice when it is available but surprisingly less performant on more intensive graphics.

There are a variety of open source VNC solutions but they suffer from the lack of firewall punch through and setup issues.
Watching television / using the computer isolates us from real meaningful human connections and causes depression / cynical world view. It is often hard to have meaning or purpose in the world and hard to interact with others in a real life meaningful way. As the internet and media continue to be front and center in our life depression and sadness are inevitable.

I agree. My dad had to fight in WW2 at 17, got shot twice, almost lost a leg, had to leave their home with nothing. My mom spent a lot of nights in a bunker while bombs were falling, they had to watch for fighter planes shooting at them while working on the fields during the day. The generations that grew up in the west after WW2 have seen nothing in comparison.

I think people like the idea of overcoming suffering so these days they exaggerate a lot of things.
EU isn't a government. "Europeans" do not elect members of the European parliament. Finally, I would argue that the reasons for forming what became the EU, back in late 40s and 50s last century, were completely different from what we have today.
Yeah, you're right, A bit strong reaction from me maybe, I'm sorry for that. I guess I just gotten really frustrated with the spamming and trying to see some humor in that, and trying to share the humor. But you're absolutely right, I shouldn't have written that comment.
You can still have FRP with an unlockable bootloader. Just place the unlock bootloader button after the forced Google login so that even if you factory reset the phone you cannot unlock the bootloader without the Google account.

In fact that is how most phones (that still have an unlockable bootloader) do it, the button is in the developer options which if you reset the phone you cannot get to without having access to the linked Google account.

Conway's Law says the structure of code mirrors the structure of the organization that produced it. There's a correlary to that somewhere that says the financial history of an organization is embedded in the structure of the code it writes.

I've also started having problems with the phrase "Technical Debt." Talking with a non-techincal co-founder once about why they had so much technical debt, their concept was "debt is great! we cut corners today and pay it back when we get more funding!" I had to break it to him that unlike regular debt, where it's easier to structure budgets to meet interest payments, technical debt reduces velocity making it harder and harder to reliably deliver software on time and on budget. The interest payment on technical debt is super-polynomial, not linear.
Hopefully it just didn't make it far enough into the conversation, but your minimum income to survive should have $100-$300 a month in long term savings, so you're not forced to grind in your 70's.

I agree with the mic issue and it's not ideal, though it eventually just gets down to what you can and can't do with the hardware. I will say for me at least this is non-issue since all calls are taken in my quiet apartment.
So it's basically thinly veiled protectionism.
Apexalpha was talkimg about bataclan in France. The european context is super different from the US context.
For example this year someone killed one person in a Amoklauf (~schoolshooting) in germany with a sports crossbow. These things will now be put under weapons regulation, and will be basically unavailable to the general public. As they should be. What does anyone really NEED, a crossbow for?
Sony's market capitalization exceeds €75bn (the threshold over which the regulation applies).
All my experiences with Apple have been far below the expectations set by "it just works".

For example, don't use an Apple smartwatch to keep time (the clock will fall behind and stay there, even after interacting with the display to "wake" it up.)

The "Pencil 2" stylus they sell for iPads can't be used exclusively. (E.g. activating the "Command Center" requires you use your finger.)

They build advertisements into the OS (very notable if you don't use iCloud) and reset preferences willy-nilly (such as if you have iMessage disabled.)

I hope more people talk about these issues, I'd love to see Apple pressured to make meaningful improvements.
