I know it does, but people still do it. I guess small budget for bootstraping, no-code, angel investors, and who knows what else, whatever it takes. Don't get me wrong, being a dev certainly helps, but you will probably still need one of those things. The competition is very high in this world.

I'm sorry, but how can it be my fault for using a device until it's battery is low-ish?

> Letting it go down to 20% before charging it back up means the battery has to cycle

Apple actually says themselves, that "You complete one charge cycle when you’ve used (discharged) an amount that equals 100% of your battery’s capacity — but not necessarily all from one charge." [1]

The iPhone 12 mini has a 2,227mAh battery. Its battery health is at 86%, so effectively I have 1915mAh. But now you're also telling me that I can't use it past 20%, which leaves me with 1530mAh, or 68% of the original capacity.

I can totally agree that with long-term usage it's up to the user to optimize their battery usage for health. But my device was at 92% battery health after not even a full year and I simply won't accept that this is on me. Especially if we consider how expensive and complicated Apple makes it to replace a battery. Apple also tells me that I can charge my battery whenever I want.

To give more insight, GPS is fully disabled 99% of the time, it runs in dark mode, auto-brightness is disabled and I usually set it to a pretty low brightness, 5G is disabled and generally I remember disabling lots of things like "double tap to wake screen", "lift phone to wake screen" etc.

This seems like it would be such a basic idea, e.g. holding down crtl would show you button combinations on each key that use ctrl.
Not long after a16z was founded, I was excited to meet Andreessen while I was working at a startup he invested in, 100% because of his history at Netscape. If I knew then what I knew now about him... would not have given two shits about getting to shake his hand.
I bought a car dashcam a few weeks ago, and it only records h265. When trying to playback a 1 minute video, VLC might decode one frame, worthless for dashcam videos. I thought that I might have to buy this codec, but I tried MPC-HC and they all played fine.
For me, not feeling spied on was the big part and the search results were also much more consistent and less frustrating. The final parts were the ads, and that I simply try to avoid Google products.

Are you aware of the "Tools -> Verbatim" mode?
You're not supposed to see differences between the different palettes. They're not to be used concurrently.
I think for many of us, "correcting" the spelling is one of the biggest annoyances of Google search, and the main reason which forces us to resort to using quotes so often. When I search for a word, I want to search for that word, not some other completely unrelated word which happens to have a similar meaning to one of the dictionary definitions of a word a few characters different from the one I typed.
Tamino helpfully linked the underlying paper in his first comment: https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpls.2016.00069.... It's a clear and well written paper. While I assume its main conclusions are true (temperatures are hotter today and grape harvests are earlier than the historical average) there is a big hole in the logic used to show causality. Figure 5 and Table 1 show the main issue.

As I understand it (and I applaud the authors for the clarity of their explanation) the original data from the 1600's shows a harvest date about 7 days earlier than the 1700 and 1800's. The decided that this didn't agree with records for neighboring regions where such records existed, so they "homogenized" the data by pretending the actual recorded harvest dates were 7 days later.

Their justification for this is a one-time change in winemaking practice in Burgundy. Oh, by the way, according to the original records the difference harvest between the 1600's and today would otherwise have been just over 7 days. Lest I seem that I exaggerate, here it is in their words (Section 2.6):

In the perspective of reconstructing past spring–summer temperatures, this bias must be taken into account. Otherwise it would have mean April-to-July GHD temperature-based reconstructions with maxima and minima ca. 1 ∘C warmer before 1718 than afterwards on the decadal scale, even though temperature measurements available in France since 1658 do not provide any evidence of such a warming during the period 1658–1718. To homogenise the Beaune GHD series we have then added 7 d to raw data prior to 1718. The Pearson correlation with April-to-July mean temperature in Paris for the period 1658–2018 is stronger with the homogenised Beaune GHD time series (r=0.76) than with the non-homogenised one (r=0.74).

Anthropogenic changes in winemaking are the most likely explanation.

They aren't necessarily wrong to make an adjustment here, but it completely undermines the causal argument they are making (or at least, that Tamino is making). While it is unlikely that there were no changes in winemaking in the last 650 year, assuming that there was one and only one major change and that it can be dealt with by uniform change to a single period of the data is fantasy. The raw data shows an early harvest, they change it to a later one, and then go on to argue that harvests are happening earlier than ever!

Again, I presume their general conclusions are correct: recent temperatures are warmer, and recent harvests are getting earlier. But this paper really doesn't do a good job of showing the extent to which this is true, and it makes almost no effort to convince the reader that other cultural changes (which are almost certain to have occurred) didn't have effects of similar magnitude in unknown directions.
You’ll be forced to buy an expensive car, pay for insurance, maintain it, get in car crashes and become maimed, pay for gas, and advocate for politics that require massive amounts of death and destruction to secure your oil supply and you’ll be happy.
Perhaps I could have been more precise: the article answers the title and big question "So do antidepressants work?" with "Research suggests antidepressants work only a bit better than placebos", then bury the actual detail you outlined later.

That's at least misleading if not downright a lie. "a group of people who experience much better results on antidepressants" is, in my opinion, simply not compatible with "work only a bit better than placebos".

If you tell me the later, I'll probably forgo the treatment. If told the former, I'm willing to give it a try to see if it works. (luckily for me, it did)
The placebo effect is not ever that big of an effect. Similarly, the Dunning-Kruger effect is not actually very large.
If an official blog post, meant for regular users, lists using the search of Chrome Dev Tools to find hidden content instead of the actual Ctrl+F search:
"in Chrome, you can search from within Developer Tools to match against all rendered text, which would include the text in drop-down menus and other areas of the site."
it is maybe time to change the Ctrl+F search instead of recommending regular users to use developer tools.
In this case, I was trying to keep the actual code as “flat” as possible, while offering exactly that pleasing sense of depth for the UI. For the latter, it could probably be better utilised in the VSCode extension but I hope at least the colours offer a good basis to work off of.

Imho OKLab should be the defacto standard for designing with colour, I’m a big fan. Using the colour space based on the display technology never really made sense in this context as we are designing for humans and the display is merely a constraint.
They're really quite different

Umm yeah, can someone smarter than me explain why we would want a globally unique MAC address in a router?
Carmack can go wherever he wants, do whatever he likes. So I just assumed he went to Facebook for the opportunity to work alongside other smart people, to work on his personal passion project. Who wouldn't do that, if given the chance?
On your number 2: SSRIs have to build up in the system before they are effective and take a lot of time to ween off when you stop them. If you only missed one day, any change should be considered psychosomatic.
That's not a sign that quote search doesn't work. In fact, the opposite. The pages you get all appear to have that really long quoted phrase. Instead, it's a sign we don't have one particular page with that quote indexed. Certainly better if we did have that page included in our index, of course. I'll pass it on.

Israeli researchers discovered the first consensus-level attack on Ethereum
The attack is called "Uncle Maker", as it allows attackers to displace main-chain blocks with their own blocks, thus making these displaced blocks become uncles.
By analyzing the timestamps of the last 3 million blocks, it becomes apparent that F2Pool has performed the attack in the wild.

Someone living in San Francisco excitedly! told me just 1-3 years ago that they could now use some 'photograph your check' feature on their mobile - not 100% sure where the checks were used, but said person was not used to using checks where they came from.. sounds kinda widespread.
As I understand it 3D touch's functionality per app depended on the app author, so the discoverability problem is not that simple.
Since the 90s, platforms really didn’t have a chance that didn’t run Microsoft Office and Adobe. Remember that MS was on stage with Apple when the first Mac was introduced.

Vertical market apps are going to target the computer with the largest market share. You’re going to be hard pressed to tell your local dentist office they need to run Linux to run the equivalent of their VB based software.

Most people already complain when their first launch experience requires them to update their OS - mostly consoles. I can’t imagine telling my mom, to download a browser, email client, dialer, messaging app, calendar, contacts software, notes app, etc.
There’s no question that life circumstances can cause depression.

But to claim most depression is caused by life circumstances is quite a reach.

I think it really depends on what you're after and the micro location where you spend your day and night. Hvar and it's city is definitely not laid back and slow. It is just very expensive, busy and loud. Korcula is fine, but I would suggest something like Vis island or for someone appreciating very small islands: Susak or Ilovik. Being on all of those places many times in my life, I think it mostly depends who you're with and where your apartment is. Every island can be very diverse in itself as well. Let me explain: if you're placed in a town usually it will be very loud on weekends and nights due to open air concerts/performances, and sometimes even during the weekdays. So if you desire something where you'll get a nice sleep this can actually be hard to come by because every cafee is open during the whole night each day entertaining a few drunks, blasting music, and not letting hundreds of people sleep with open windows (nights are hot as well). Actually it was much more bearable with covid restrictions in place because the cafees weren't allowed to play music after IIRC 10PM. A lot of islands also have no police or very minimal presence, so there is a lot of elements of lawlessness and locals making their own "rules".

I could write pages of this stuff, but let me write more positive things. The best way to enjoy the islands in Croatia is actually by boat, rented or otherwise (they are not expensive). There are beautiful quiet coves where you can spend your days and nights, only going for resupply in towns. You anchor in a quiet cove, and in the evening you take your tender boat to the town if you want to walk around it. Next day you sail to another island and repeat. That experience is actually awesome.

If a boat is out of the question, being in some apartment is an option, I would just advise not to be in the town center or near it, or anywhere where some very local beach is. Mostly there will be a caffee with blaring music and nobody likes to sleep with earplugs. Also this is and advice for any island, and true, a lot of those islands are quite different than each other.
Awesome, thank you! I’ll give you some comments in the issue you posted.

I mean portable over all platforms which claims to support standard C.

> you would need to take the intermediate representation route (like Java). There's very little else that can be done in the face of infinite, non-compatible ABIs at every layer.

No, I don’t think so. There’s an obvious solution, dictated by the architectual choices made by C (i.e. every architecture which introduces a new larger integer type, by necessity redefines intmax_t, and creates a new ABI), but the community (for reasons of their own) did not want to do it that way, and instead broke the promise of intmax_t always being the largest type.
If you simply unplug a RPi without shutting it down properly there is a chance that the SD card will get corrupted. It is possible to 'harden' the system by mounting the SD card read only, but that is a faff to set up and I've still had corrupted cards. This makes the RPi not useful for kiosk type applications.

Contrast with Arduino, where I plug it into my laptop and upload some code, thereafter I can plug it in/out/'turn it all about' with power and it reliably does 'stuff'
Reminds me very much of the Volere Requirements Spec template[1].

Any good ones? I'd love to experiment.
> Honestly, having had lived in mixed-income neighborhoods, the wealthy are missing out.

I cannot understand why cities in the US are built the way they are.

I live in a relatively big city in Germany in a somewhat dense neighborhood (most buildings have 3-5 stories). I have two grocery stores within five minutes of walking, a great Italian restaurant around the corner. If I want to go to the city center it is a ten minute train ride, going to the lake is a 12 minute ride. I can quickly get around the city center by using the subway and all of this for a fraction of the cost of owning a car.

I grew up in a more rural area and personally, living in a denser cities feels more "luxurious" than living in a town where I can't get anywhere if I don't drive. The cities are still far from perfect, but this is mostly because they desperately try to accomodate the car obsessed public (but not as desperately as American cities)
How do you mount it to a tripod? Also do you know if you can horizontally flip the image so it could be used with a teleprompter?
There's been talk about taxes on aircraft fuel, but here in the EU the proposals have involved an exception for private jets.

I think this is quite unreasonable, because ordinary jets are like carpooling. If anything, it's they who should have the exception.
It didn't really need much of an update, except to play newer file formats.
Other than that, I feel it has a much better interface than any other player I've tried, on both Windows and Linux.
One of my favourites is Michael Feather's "Working effectively with legacy code".

It is slightly out of date by now, which carries the risk people reading it and interpreting its advice "literally" (which by definition will take your code back by 15 years). But the main message of the book is as relevant today as then, and a great way to think about writing code and how to approach large complex codebases that need to be tamed.
This rigidity of computers is exactly why we must not let them control society.

Society is responsible for each and every member of it. Having 0.001% of population's lives ruined because of an error is not acceptable.

Humans may be slower and less efficient than machines (and require living wages), but humans are flexible and understand context. Replacing them with machines will only remove the useful human capabilities that we need so much in this society where most of the rules are still ad-hoc and implicit.

Imagine being assaulted by a robot policeman whose crime detection facility has malfunctioned, while you can't even complain to his robot colleague because it hasn't been programmed for malfunction of other robot policemen.
This guy would be better off writing this off, he has been chasing these coins for years. Even if he recovers the hard drive, he then has to hope that the hard drive is undamaged. His fomo(?) must physically hurt him
No, HR takes the allegation seriously, does an investigation, and if the facts support the allegation, then ruins the guilty party's life.

And the allegation was found to be baseless and, instead, was some sort of a ploy - ruins the false accuser's life.

My larger takeaway from the article (when did Engadget get so serious?) is that it calls out Apple HR's apparent failures to take the cited examples seriously. The individual merits of each case are important, and at the micro level they have huge conseqiences, but my takeaway was a larger "do better, Apple - live up to your own claims and ideals".

To be fair, it is certain that there were a lot of other cases where Apple's HR shined, but these - newp.
Thanks for the feedback and kind words! I'll have a think on incremental progress as mentioned
> We have a long tradition of this with our 21-year drinking age. People can differentiate between the laws they can break and the ones they shouldn’t.

Well, not really. It was originally 18 to drink.

Thanks to the federal government linking interstate funds to a requirement states support 21 drinking age is how they did that.

In some states, even 16 could drink beer prior to the feds fucking things up.
If it breaks every month and takes them two months to repair it each time then it's a problem.
And if you look under the hood, you will see that it's only possible because of a bunch of ad-hoc hacks, which is exactly what my proposal was about: level the playing field and make it possible to have alternatives _without_ the ad-hoc hacks.
Is this a small company or a team in a big one? If you're a team in a corporate its good to talk to other divisions and see what they're up to. There might be company wide tools you dont know about. Usually too you'll see people sitting on a different floor with the same problems and its good to bounce ideas off even if you dont use the same solutions.

Also you'll see ITIL framework, its usually horribly overweight if you're small or even medium sized, but might give you some ideas.
To be fair, humans have gone through similar visual change, but that's probably more to do with what we eat and how we live than genetics.
Electricity and water are usually close to 100% paid for by the bills and if not it's not exactly a big difference if they are. The roads and the occasional big investment in something like a water treatment plan are paid via taxes. The money taxes a circuitous route to get there since so much money goes to fed and state taxes who then fractionally fund these sorts of infrastructure upkeep things. Unless a community is exceptionally rich or poor the people living there pay roughly what it costs +/- a few percent. Rich communities get less because their taxes get redirected to poorer communities to a larger extent. If poorer communities were not benefits of this wealth transfer they find ways to make do with less but it wouldn't be the financial devastation that many here like to imply.

You have to meet your meds half way -- meaning you must do the work i.e. sleep hygiene, physical activity, diet, challenging negative thinking patterns, etc...

This was all made very clear to me when I began addressing my mental health about 4 years when I was first hospitalized during a manic episode.

During 2 years of outpatient treatment at the clinic for the Neurosciences at the Univ. of TX -- it was stressed meds are no panacea. For mood disorders they were big proponents of interpersonal and social rhythm therapy[0]. I believe the approach was similar for those with unipolar depression as well.

TLDR Google re-discovers decades-old search feature, users seemingly never realized it disappeared.
You can ping me here on Hacker News, probably best to reply to this, and I can watch for replies. I'm also on Twitter, @dannysullivan

For search issues, if people are comfortable, it's always best to share the exact query that was used. Putting it within brackets, as if those are the search box, can be helpful. Like if you searched for "this that" as a quoted search, ["this that"] would represent it. Explain what the issue is, list any particular URLs if helpful, screenshots if those are also helpful.
That’s the great thing about OKLab, it makes this kind of design much easier and more accessible without having to resort to color appearance models like CIECAM16 or even just CIECAM UCS.

Beyond luminance, I’m also adjusting for uniform chroma as otherwise the colours still stand out to different degrees from the background, so that might have been one of the issues you ran into.

Your color scheme was actually one of the ones I looked into before making my own because it at least came close to what I was looking for — and while it was close, the perfectionist in me wanted to make it mathematically optimal once I’ve started to think about it in these terms.
