DreamWorks Animation (aka DWA) is a huge advocate of open source.

Over the years they've bankrolled a lot of development around Linux on the desktop and have one of the most astonishing NFS infrastructures I've ever directly layed hands on.

They've talked about their love of open source over the years, especially at Red Hat summit.

(I spent quite a bit of time working with them and their former CTO is currently a teammate of mine).
Amen on Pinterest. I wish there was a profile setting to add that never included them in my results.
I'm not the GP poster, but doing a visual comparison, if you've got chips of the same size and shape in the same places, and the same passives in the same places, and the trace routing is also visually the same between them, wouldn't you feel that's pretty definitive?
In other words, this correlation with higher home prices and more remote workers implies it's caused by it?

I dunno, I would hope they started to suck right out of the box.

Why on Earth do they geoblock access to an experimental demo?
I'm a self-identified $OPERATING_SYSTEM user because I have been using $OPERATING_SYSTEM for 20 years in much the same way, like how it works, have a lot of things set up for it which is not always easily portable (e.g. scripts and programs I wrote), and have a lot of $OPERATING_SYSTEM things hard-wired in to my brain and muscle memory.

Can I spend time and effort changing that? Of course. But why fix something that isn't broken?

Am I tying my identify to $OPERATING_SYSTEM? No. It just works for me, so I'm a $OPERATING_SYSTEM user.
I dread the day reddit stops letting you opt out of the redesign. It's absolutely unusable and hasn't improved at all since launch.
A lay person will know chorizo much better than celestial bodies, at least in Europe. Of course there will always be someone to say they don't know what chorizo looks like but that's life... Otherwise we cannot do anything.

Anyway, it's odd that people would argue on this instead of just laughing it off as "well played", but people argue over everything these days...
Yeah, but that doesn't address my point--that not all kiddie porn is sexual abuse. Some of it is just teenagers being stupid filming themselves, no abuse involved.
> Does it mean that vim is always faster? No.

Yes. You don’t have to move your hands away from the home row, you don’t have to do some random moves with your mouse to locate the pointer. Vim is pretty much always faster. The important thing here is not the speed though - who cares if you spend 2 vs 5 seconds to select a paragraph anyway. It’s just that vim has much more convenient and most importantly precise way to interact with text objects, that’s it. Precision is the key.

A lot of people here making comments without knowing anything about the 70 year-old issue of the definition of "China", as well as the "one country" philosophy that both Taiwan and Mainland China adhere to officially.[1][2][3]

I'm not Chinese but I did lived in Taiwan for 6 years and was married to a Chinese woman who's father escaped to Taiwan from China after the Nationalists lost the civil war and fled to Taiwan.

Apple's policy is exactly in line with Taiwan's own official policy.

To be sure, there is official policy and there is actual sentiment on the ground. "Made in Taiwan" reflects the Taiwan populace's growing desire to distinguish itself from China, as well as reflect the de facto reality.[4][5]

But if Taiwan itself as a country is unwilling to change their official policy, be it because they still cling to the "One China" notion, or because they are afraid of pissing off China, why is everyone here demanding that Apple do something that Taiwan is itself unwilling to do? Why should they, as an American company, push any particular angle, especially when there is position they can take that is compatible with the policies of both Taiwan and China?

If you are arguing for a world that pushes values over profit and other self-serving things, I'd give you a hug and then tell you there are far more important stands to take, including a serious and honest analysis of capitalism. Are all the people dissing Apple on this issue also willing to diss Apple for the exploitation of cheap labor in Asia all while growing to have the greatest market cap in the whole world? If you are not then I don't think you have much of a leg to stand on.

Note that the constitution also claims Mongolia and Tibet as part of the Republic of China. Even Mainland China doesn't claim Mongolia.

The amendments adopted afterwards have not rescinded the idea of One China implied by the original: https://english.president.gov.tw/Page/95

They now use the phrase "free area of the Republic of China" and specifically say, "Rights and obligations between the people of the Chinese mainland area and those of the free area, and the disposition of other related affairs may be specified by law."

As others said, it may be allowed, and I did not know either ways but it was a rhetorical point.

Now even if it is allowed, suppose this was a Federal government procurement. Will Feds buy something with such flags? Nope. Once that happens, it can be easily demagogued.
Thanks for chiming in! Always great to hear perspectives from people actually living in the places being discussed.

If you had to guess, where do you expect TW/CH relations to be in 50 years? Do you still expect there to be disagreement between the two governments on respective borders and sovereignty or will they someday reach a fully amicable agreement?

Leaking information is not “always nice”. For example using that as an id for a medical record would give you specific information for the date of diagnosis or treatment.

> Nothing stopping them from working on that in their downtime.

Maybe. Some of them have burned bridges with the communities they once loved, all in the name of being more viral and making more money. Justin Flom, Julius Dein, Rick Lax, and Jibrizy are all now despised in the magic community because of their actions. That's touched on in the article, with Julius even stating that he'd give all the money back to go back in time and undo the damage to his reputation. While it is still possible to change their ways and be successful in their original passions without the surrounding community behind them, it does make things more difficult and ultimately less fulfilling.
Voyager Allows Access to Deposits
I think you're (pretty furiously) talking past the other user. I agree the "cement like" material one of them uses is relatively unusual, but the article also references Boxabl (light gauge steel panel frames with concrete/EPS infill) and Node (timber framed panels) as other cutting edge startups. The material Vantem uses might be novel, the idea of "flat pack homes" referenced in the article isn't, even if building homes out of masonry and timber cut on site is still far more common and greater use of offsite construction has positive sustainability implications

It's also very common to skim panel/SFS/module type construction with faux-brick skins or render over here...
Agree with everything.

With hardware, I have realized that there should be a "critical updates only" mode with all hardware (similar to the silent toggle in an iPhone) - it's a clear intent from the user that they don't want to be bothered.

With software, it is nearly inexcusable to do things incorrectly because most major platforms offer at least one right way to do things (not that the platforms follow the gospel themselves - as the OP pointed out). What we now need to more than guidelines - we need guardrails. At a minimum, I want to report apps which misuse the notification importance hierarchy, and those reports should impact the app-review cycles on app stores.

On the topic of how much something wants to "alert" you about, there is a clear culprit here - of course, the notorious-on-HN software churn where people want to constantly be able to write "added feature X" on their appraisal sheet. It needs to stop.

> many other languages with less overall IDE support than C/C++ have namespaces.

Because they are not C-style language. In Python or Java, for example, you need a separate file to create a package. In C++ you can add namespaces anywhere you want. This makes C++ namespaces harder to maintain even with automated tools.
Agreed that there's an important distinction between engineers generally vs software engineers. Hard to fit everything in the 80 characters for the title -- I hope the first line makes it clear.

This is huge and people underestimate how valuable it can be for a company. DreamWorks Animation's product is not MoonRay, it is movies and they're commodizing their complement.

If every animation studio started using MoonRay because of this, they'd have won.

Why are you framing this in such a negative light?

They open something up, let people use it, and hope that some people might contribute back. Cool, sounds great to me. They aren't forcing me to contribute back to the project. Seems pretty win-win.

Show HN: Convert English to Cron Expressions
Current government doesn't agree on the 1992 consensus. The agreement on "One China" doesn't exist.

Discalaimer: I live here.
I think so. I think the disagreement is in how to deal with the problem. Obviously tariffs are a terrible idea (if you think about it for more than a couple minutes). Alternatives like mandating exporters meet environmental and employment standards that meet or exceed ours would probably make a good sized dent.
BYOD certainly has its problems, but it doesn't seem like they're even trying.

> Only positive thing is to see Google loosing once in a standards fight

It is far from the first time. For instance, Google was involved in the WHATWG, which developed the HTML standard while the W3C pushed XHTML.

The standards war, itself, is only lost when nearly nobody uses the standard, which is what happened to XHTML, which lost to WHATWG’s HTML when browsers simply didn’t use XHTML.

It sounds like a lot of cryptocurrency companies wish to prop up this standard, but it is not clear to me that actual people would use it for a non-circular goal.
Trend rapidly changing, they were focused elsewhere previously.

The US values many things in its foreign policy, and some of those things are spreading democracy and self-determination. That doesn’t mean the US values them to the exclusion of other interests like trade partnerships, energy security, regional stability, and military alliances.

Countries in the US sphere of influence tend to drift toward becoming democracies, in part because of the influence of free trade. Both Taiwan and South Korea started off as dictatorships propped up by the military backing of the US to contain the spread of communism, and eventually transitioned to democratic government.

As for Tibet, if it were on an island and could have been defended by the US Navy, I’m sure it would still be independent. Even if it were merely coastal it might still be independent. But it’s landlocked and mountainous, and hard to defend from the other side of the world. The invasion was also rapid, and happened at the same time the international community was responding to the invasion of South Korea.

>With that in mind, Taiwan and China situation is really similar to a civil war, Taiwan is just a secessionist. And until the situation is resolved, there is nothing wrong with label it “Taiwan, China”

this is contrary to nearly everything I have witnessed in my life regarding Taiwan (a place I visited in the earlyish 90s).
And it's precisely what is happening right now.

Unless forced to manufacture here (like say defense and space industry), the low salaries elsewhere and already existing vertical and horizontal integration make for an insurmountable advantage forever.
Which is silly because that's not what an appeal to authority is.

Appeal to authority is defending/supporting an argument by citing the authority of the person presenting it.

It's not the inclination people have to take at face value information of low-consequence/importance because it's within the field of the speaker's expertise.

I’m not being emotional. That phrase was chosen because, as I’ve posted already, my opinion of your comments is that the differentiator here is nott technology but rather your preferences in technology. You then go on to argue your preferences as being better than other peoples (by proxy due to dismissing other peoples preferences as “not ready”). Hence why I considered your opinion to be one of elitism rather than a pragmatic evaluation.

But since you’ve degraded this conversation into a pointless meta-debate about whether I’m getting emotional or not (I’m clearly not but would it really matter if I were?), shall we just agree to disagree and get on with our lives? It’s pretty obvious no constructive discussion is going to come from our discourse.

I wouldn't have spent so long talking about $HNT spot price, as it erodes the impact of the article. There are companies doing good work with share prices that aren't pumping, too. Helium is a scam regardless.

I've read additional criticism where bad actors in China operate fake nodes which report as being in the middle of the ocean; using the network browser tool you can see arrays of nodes there. This is far more alarming to me as it indicates that the security model isn't real and the network is compromised.
woah... I am not "against" NYC. I think it's awesome as a whole and I go there frequently. But yeah, it does have deep problems, the cost-of-living is borderline insane and it REALLY DOES smell like pee in far too many places.

I am just saying that NYC is not the best example of where we want urban centers to aspire to. For one thing, nothing in the USA is as big and or has the financial resources of NYC.

Towns in the US that want to improve their housing situation need to look towards what OTHER SIMILAR towns are doing and are successful at. NYC is such a weird case on the basis of scale and density.
I have, like the author, dabbled in Yocto/OpenEmbedded. I disagree with his "professionals" take. It is the biggest bundle of duct tape and hacks I have ever seen, but I don't really see that as a bad thing. It's just the only way to get stuff done with open source.

It is mainly handled by armies of contractors fixing stuff that constantly breaks from (uncaring) vendors that all gets chucked into a giant pot that has to work to ship. Vendors patching other vendors' recipes, etc...

Frankly, I think Yocto enables a more agile approach to embedded than not. I love it and I hate it.

> It should give you the maximum integer available

How would you compile that to machine code which would, when run, still give you the maximum integer on next year’s CPU with all-new super-duper wide integers?

It is more reasonable to think of a binary to be compiled to a specific architecture triplet, and if the CPU changes, the architecture must change, and therefore the ABI, and if the OS wants to run a binary from an older architecture, some emulation layer is needed.

Of course, this would be a lot of work for the operating system people if they want to run binaries from lots of what are now different architectures, and it was apparently easier to just force the C standard to abandon the entire concept of intmax_t being the largest.
>No, Europe has not been doing cement-like prefabs for years. They're not legal in Europe. Concrete prefabs haven't been built in Europe since the Soviets left in the 1980s. What the Soviets were building were prefab rooms, not prefab panels. It's a night and day difference.

Well, I have been working with a firm that made prefab panels houses much later than the 80's, and I don't think they were ever made illegal at least here (Italy) maybe you should restrict your definition of Europe to the specific EU country (if any) where concrete prefab houses are actually illegal.
Not necessarily: it would depend on what Dreamworks' requirements have been up to now as to the current state: obviously, they use volumetrics, but almost all their stuff is CG and not necessarily photo real, being more artistic-driven.

That fact might have allowed them to take short-cuts.

This sad orientalism: neither China nor Russia are some weird state machines that are "provoked" or "forced" to do anything, or kids that we have to constantly placate to not start crying in the middle of the mall.

You're partially correct, but missed the important point here. As a result your advice is dangerous to health.

You don't want water picking up minerals from your body .. you want it DEPOSITING minerals into your body. That's the way we evolved obtaining minerals from water from streams where the water runs over rocks to mineralise.
This is absolutely a great point. I forgot that authors generally don't pick their titles (which I think is foolish, a title is so important! same for cover art! or at in general! but that's for another day). It's kind of weird since the pictures are just very... kind of normal I guess. It's a kid taking pictures of himself and his friends at a concert. By it's contrasted with some pretty heavy topics.

It's a geometry problem. SFH takes up too much space.

You're absolutely correct that there's heaps of wilderness in the USA, but the more SFH there is, the more sprawl that is required, which means that that wilderness is further and further away.

I'd rather get to the wilderness faster and not have to drive through hours and hours of sprawling SFH suburbs.
