But it's not after the fact. Go talk to someone at Apple and they will tell you before the fact how much work goes into the tiny little details. But you're asking users why, and the answer is how could they possibly know? Either everyone is an idiot and you're somehow not hitting a trillion dollar market cap with that knowledge, or the company is doing something very subtle that adds up in ways that are not articulable by laypeople [0].

Not sure what analogy you're getting at with crack. Separate from the moral valence you're trying to ascribe to it, of course it's a great product in some respects. Though I'd suggest that explaining why a single molecule that interacts ~directly with the brain's reward system is a "good product" is much easier than something like a smartphone or car.

[0] One example I happen to know about had to do with the really complex machining that was required on one of the iPhones (forget which) to make the bevel around the screen bezel wrap around the corner in a way that felt (but was not actually) "flat" relative to the straight-line parts of the bevel. Without this multi-axis beveling, which was apparently a complete nightmare to figure out how to manufacture, the corners would've "seemed" sharper. Does that mean someone would pick up an iPhone and remark how nice it is that the corner bevel rotates another 3 degrees or whatever? Obviously not. Does that mean this was a complete waste of time? No one knows. Apple's market cap, margins, adoption, and consumer loyalty point toward them doing something uniquely right though.
What public property was destroyed?

Also, as I said elsewhere, the reason that protests like these are effective is because there are consequences; they are designed to be impossible to ignore. If glue on the frame of a painting is too much destruction, will you only consider protests which have negligible effect appropriate?
How many Gen X-ers planned to become rock stars?
The vast majority, but there are a few brave souls left. Not enough to stand up to the insanity, unfortunately.
1 in x HNers plan to become rich in the App Store.

Sounds familiar?

In any case, more transparency from the platforms is warranted.
It would take about 50,000 hours (5.7 years) to charge a 10 Wh iPhone. A solar cell on the back of the iphone would take roughly a full sunny day to charge an iPhone, with ~2 watts peak output.

I'm not sure what that's supposed to tell us. How many schoolchildren in 1969 wanted to be astronauts, or movie stars?
In my case I've joined Giving What We Can - a community of people giving at least 10% of their pre-tax income to the most cost-effective charities they can find (see GiveWell.org). Plus I help out with web dev pro-bono to some initiatives that I think are making the world better.

It's always easier to be selfish; finding noble reasons to not put in good effort at work is probably easier than recognizing you might be making those around you pick up your slack. If you're "quiet quitting" and have lots of free time at work, you may as well help the people around you (e.g. be a good mentor).

I'm a PhD student researching Machine Learning/Deep Learning, with experience in web development and a background in mathematics. I'm looking for part time work (up to ~20 hours/week) for a year while I complete my PhD. I can be flexible with working hours. Also open to internships opportunities.

I have previous professional experience in web development, both front and back end, mainly with React/NodeJS but also in Ruby on Rails. I'm a fast learner and am not afraid of trying something new.
How can they capture the methane leaks, if they can't even repair the wells in the first place? They don't have the logistics to do so.
Yes, there's a Russian movie with a guy that is guarding a weather station in the North and playing games all day. He somehow gets into a conflict with his supervisor, dissasembles a RTG beacon and uses the Strontium 90 to poison his supervisor's dried fish supply. They both get irradiated and the military cleans up the mess.

Only the Soviets were daft enough to build RTGs using Strontium 90.
Many pumped hydro station were originally built to use cheap overnight electricity from nuclear plants when demand was low, and timeshift it to spikes of demand later.

You know why? Because of fearmongering, redtape, and utter bullshit detractors every step of the way.

Nuclear power could be cheap and pervasive and safe and clean.

But noooooo. We have had decades of bullshit from people who barely got through 5th grade science making policies or voting in people making policies.

People piss themselves when you mention "nuclear" and other energy companies played it up.
The word around town(i.e in Moscow) is that this is a hint to Mr Alekperov(Founder of Lukoil, owns approximately 20% of the company) that Lukoil should be sold either whole or in parts to state owned companies. Washington Post article neglects to mention the most important detail of this death, which is that it occurred on Alekperov's birthday. The buyout candidate is ironically Surgutneftegas.
Right, they are so poor that they are using their what little knowledge they have to scavenge an abandoned building for scrap they can sell to feed themselves and their children.

If you had never been taught about radiation, you wouldn't know what to do about it either. It is not like radioactive materials are a common everyday occurrence for everyone.

What is wrong with you that you cannot see that they are also humans just like us, and were born into horrible circumstances that they never got the education to learn about this, through no fault of their own whatsoever?
A truck engine is a great comparison point, because you can look at modern trucks for a perfect example of this.

A Ford F-250 through F-450 pickup truck with the 6.7L "Power Stroke" diesel is rated for 475 HP and 1050 lb-ft of torque.

The same engine in the same basic truck, but in commercial chassis-cab form, is rated for 330 HP and 825 lb-ft of torque.

Step up to the medium duty F-650/750 chassis with a much larger cooling system and that engine is now rated for 270 HP and 700 lb-ft of torque, with optional software upgrades available for 300/725 or 330/750 configurations.

The same applies to their gas motor, the pickup trucks get the 7.3L "Godzilla" engine with 430 HP and 475 lb-ft where the chassis-cabs and medium duty trucks get a 335 HP/468 lb-ft tune.

The harder and more consistently the truck is expected to be worked the less power the engine is rated for.

This isn't just a Ford thing either, GM and Ram also derate their commercial chassis compared to the pickups and the multiple power level thing on the medium duty diesels is common industry practice. Often the highest horsepower packages on larger diesels will be restricted to RV and/or emergency response applications where short bursts of power are more important than the ability to run hard for hours on end.
The problem they describe is widespread, I've heard of many similar stories across the globe. For example Turkey [1].

meh ... If there is a 5 story apartment building and you rented one apartment that is only a fraction of one of the floors would you be "sad" that you don't get to use all the unrented/empty units in all 5 stories of it?

Of course if you want to rent 2 units, the landlord would be happy to give you the keys if you pay the rent for the second unit!

I think the people who get sad at using 5/10 cores (and paying less for it) are being unreasonable.

It's buffet syndrome, wanting it all and being too greedy.

Now if the manufacturer made you pay all the cost of 10 cores and only letting you use 5, that's a different issue.
It was introduced into auto fuel in 1921 and phased out in autos in the US from 1976 to 1996 (with the phase out being heavily front-loaded).
It feels like you're being deliberately obtuse. The Minneapolis city council tried to eliminate the Minneapolis police department. The voters shut them down. When that failed, the City Council removed $8 million from the policing budget.

Leftists in power tried to actually make this happen, it wasn't just "one opinion columnist" claiming so.

That is not how sample sizes work. If the sampling was actually random, a sample size of 1000 is way more than enough to measure a 25/75 split in a population.

The sample size gives you the "random error" in your estimate, and that scales roughly as 1/sqrt(sample size). So 1000 is plenty. But it is reasonable to worry whether the sample was actually random, or biased in some way (e.g. sampling only Gen Z-ers that use a certain website) -- that would lead to a systematic error. However, for a systematic error a bigger sample size would not help much.

I'm going to put this nicely, so please take it in the constructive spirit intended -- serious claims require serious evidence to be believed. And a scattering of news articles or videos are not serious evidence.

I truly believe you're very concerned about all the things you talk about, but if you want to convince people to also believe then there needs to be more from your side.

And no, suggesting that people perform ptychographic x-ray laminography on their chips isn't a practical suggestion.

I know that low-empathy privileged commenters are to be expected on HN, but I nonetheless find it impressive that such a short comment can illuminate so many biases in one go.
There’s nothing surprising about this since it seems common to want to be famous, rich and someone that lots of people pay attention to, especially in your teens and early 20’s. Previous versions of this dream include author, movie star, sports pro, and musician. Influencer is just the cultural flavor of the decade.

And of course, most people are terrible at estimating probabilities, so these dreams seem vaguely realistic for awhile.
For macos people, that's what your docker runs on.
There is a profit incentive to increase housing prices for developers. Doing something to decrease prices will hurt their bottom line, so they just let the prices rise
This is a push in the right direction, but the fact that it took this long is amazing to think about. I'll personally still install AV on MacOS. You can never be too safe.

Okay, thanks, I'll check it out!
House prices doubling in three years is not sustainable, and the rate hike was a kick in the teeth.

I was financially able to buy a house with my salary last year in my area (greater Portland), and now… I’d be lucky if I could buy a condo.

This is bad. Cities are full of AirBnBs, suburbs are full of city workers, and everyone is getting edged out. The arbitrage of property is removing most of the necessary stability of having a home.
The kids weren't scavengers.

There are so many things we could have if we actually could somehow have faith that the required (for safety, pollution mitigation, etc.) full lifecycle was actually honored.

Instead, everything is dominated by lazy jerks. The other day, I noticed my neighbor's house painter digging a hole. I said hello and asked what was up, and he said "Yes, I need to dispose of the water and paint from my sprayer, so I dig holes and pour it in. Don't worry, I will fill the hole back in when I'm done." This was in the bay area.

People just will not do the right thing by default if it is even remotely more work and for most people, thought is the hardest work there is.

>>if you don't think the London police department didn't put out a fact based narrative about three swatting,

Nothing in the London story has any comments from the police dept at all, it is all third party accounts by the target of the swatting who they claim with out evidence that it was a member of Kiwi Farms.

Even if that is true i bet that same person has a Twitter account, Facebook account, Reddit account, Amazon Account, and probably accounts at several other sites. Are we going to ban every site that a person commits a swatting has a membership at? or just the site that are small and do not align with your personal politics?

>appealing purely to your emotional attachments to your ideals

There is a lot of appeals to emotions when it comes to this story, I am not one of them, I have a firm principle stand in support for Free Speech to include speech that people find offensive or even "harmful" or "hateful".

I stopped buying books about programming 20 years ago. They go out of date almost immediately. The internet made it possible to find sources online.
And AMD has a $134 B valuation. I do not see why they care about some Youtuber asking them to sell chips to a company he gave some pocket change to. There isn't even a business relationship there for them to think it's a serious sales enquiry. And if Framework also showed 'lack of follow-up' (whatever that means? They didn't want to talk to him about buying AMD either?) then it probably wasn't?
It's a slow process. There were rumors of other stores opening, but it seems like the pandemic slowed it down a bit.
Yeah, social media influencer is a pretty sweet job and has high visibility. Every 5 years someone does this sample and its always the same for the past 50 years, Tiktok star, youtuber, rockstar, tv star, celebrity.

almost no one plans to be a truck driver or cashier but they're the most common jobs in the country, and thats fine.
I remember planning to do something in video games as I was growing up. Ended up in a different but fairly related field. Maybe this is just a sign of the next generation of people that'll work in advertising/marketing/PR/media/fashion?

Yeah, as much as I think the whole concept of social media influencers is sad and dumb, this smells like one of those 'dang kids and their <x>' articles that have cursed us since Aristotle.

As a Gen-Xer, I don't know how many times I read similar things growing up about my own generation, except it was metal or hair bands or glam rockers that garnered the worry.
I think my step zero would be to pause and ask myself how I got myself in a situation like this.
I think a more interesting question is, why is Tom Brady still playing at a high level at age 45 while other quarterbacks are not? Only #2 addresses that question, #1 and #3 apply to all NFL quarterbacks.

Some additional likely factors:

- Luck: Regardless of his conservative playing style, Brady has been hit hard many, many times, but never had a career-ending (or career-shortening) injury.

- Genetics: Brady may have a genetic predisposition for athletic longevity.

- Discipline: Brady may have a superior recovery and self-care regimen. (There are a lot of articles on this topic, eg https://www.healthdigest.com/323870/tom-bradys-intense-routi....)
It's not (just) about saving the world. It's actually the ability to keep them supplied that is at question, given the current immense shortage on labor and fuel prices that are not going to go down.
As someone who works with QEMU, I must say QEMU is a shining example of how to do object oriented programming in C.

That said, trying to follow the QEMU code using static analysis is impossible. Every function call is a function pointer stored as a parameter in a struct that was set up by a macro called in initialization. The only way I could figure out how things are tied together is with GDB.

I feel like using C++ would have been a better language choice.
I haven't noticed compile times to be any worse when using GraalVM to build Java projects.

Caveat: I also haven't been using Native Images yet, though. So I can't comment on if it'll be dramatically different for that build target.

And people wonder why EU citizens data should never leave EU to USA without any legal guarantees from USA.
I think you answered your own question about what this is supposed to tell us.

I’d love my child to long being an astronaut, and all the studying and life choices it will impose on them. Can’t say the same about becoming a TikToker.
What you said makes less sense than what they said, not really fixed
> But they run a bit faster (on some workloads dramatically)

That’s not true. For the majority of applications the JIT compiler will be much faster (either Graal’s JIT compiler or Hotspot). Startup time, and memory reduction is true though for AOT.
The survey was people between 16 and 25. These people aren't schoolchildren.
1 in 4 people want to be a leader?

Being a social media influencer translates to influencer. Which seems to be either a leader, or some sub variant of leader.

Is it a surprise people want to make a difference and be the decider of that difference?
Is it sound? It was reported that the forest fires this year negated all of the carbon offsets through tree planting. It might be that the effect would be even worse without the planting, but what if this is just prolonging real change that is needed? Hence greenwashing.
I do not understand why we accept such low standards from our governments.

A warrant should be required. A warrant should be a cryptosecure signed file from the judge(s). The search tool should validate the signatures. The parameters in question should also be signed across and be the only allowed inputs.

Also there should be accountability for the reasonable expectation aspect of warrants. A realistic threshold should be enforced... If an officer or judge starts to dip below the threshold they should be seen as incompetent.
Sound input finally got useful in GNOME 43
> GraalVM is regular OpenJDK with the compiler switched out, AFAIK.

Do you have a source for this? Or how do you know?
Of course, what else can I put on my book shelves to impress my managers? They love books from Martin Fowler, Bob Martin, etc.. Basically, anything useless but good sound bite.
I don't have an issue with police being able to request information from companies for their investigations. I do have an issue with our public tax dollars being spent to purchase this information.

In the absence of a financial incentives companies will be less willing to hand over that data and the traditional requirement of a warrant will be utilized as it should be.
