for native addons for GC'd languages you probably don't want to introduce another GC, rust is not well-suited for interfacing with FFI, C++ is a bit heavyweight but okish I guess and C is totally unsafe, Zig is just right.
> but if the intent was "show me places sqlite is used as a database backend for user-facing web software", the Nim forum

Perhaps more appropriately, sqlite's own forum is sqlite-backed: <https://sqlite.org/forum> (running the Fossil SCM's forum interface, which itself exclusively uses sqlite for storage: <https://fossil-scm.org> (that whole site is an instance of fossil, serving all content from an sqlite db))
I was kind of surprised that OCSP stapling didn't get any mention at all. I thought that was a major improvement in both resource cost and privacy? Since the time stamped response is proxied by the site operator rather then going directly to the CA, the load is almost entirely switched to the site itself, and the site itself is the only one who knows a given IP is asking for it, which is fine because obviously the site knows a given browser is connecting to it anyway. It's decentralized again. I vaguely remember at one point there was a major limitation of only supporting a single OCSP response at a time but I thought that was dealt with via a later RFC and then entirely obviated as an issue by TLS 1.3.

Did something happen there or some other significant issue get discovered? I'm curious why the move back to CRLs (albeit improved) vs must-staple. It seemed like a reasonable elegant and straight forward solution that fit the web pretty well.
> A redesigned inward-facing microphone works with voice enhancement algorithms to better recognize and articulate your voice, so it sounds more natural when you’re on phone and video calls.

Also where are you getting "moving away from bluetooth"? That was a rumor (that they might move to their U1 tech for better audio quality) but they didn't mention that in the presentation nor is it mentioned on their site.
Then your point makes no sense.
In NZ, the 13 Mini (which I'm tempted to get this week, upgrading from a 6S) is reduced by $50.

I've been at my current job for 12 years. For my first three years, I had no manager [1]. I then did an internal transfer to development, and had a 'meh' manager [2]. He burned out after a few years. The next manager I had was great. Technically, he shouldn't have been our manager as he was a director at the company, but due to financial politics, the company couldn't hire a manager for us. He just told us what we needed to do and otherwise, let us developers alone to do the voodoo that we do. He was eventually let go and one of the other developers on our team was promoted to manager. He too, was great, just telling us what to do, and trusting us to do the voodoo that we do. He retired. My current manager (from the company that bought us out) is bad. Enterprise development being shoved down our throats, not only telling us what to do, but how to do it.

So, in my mind, a good manager will tell the team what to do, listen to them, and let them do the how. Next up is no management---in my experience, I knew what needed to be done, and got it done. It was great, but I realize that was a bizarre case that normally doesn't apply everywhere, but because of the nature of the work I did, only a few other people actually knew the work involved. The 'meh' manager didn't hurt, but really didn't help. And bad management, well ... let's just say a bad manager can really damage a company.

Until bad management showed up, our team always delivered on time, had smooth deployments, very few bugs in production, and otherwise, was not a source of issues for anyone. Now, we've missed multiple deadlines, horrible deployments, bugs in production and our customer, The Oligarchic Cell Phone Company, is very pissed. And it's not the sole fault of my current manager, but of upper management in general.

[1] I was initially hired in QA to test the call processing side of our product (the bit that happens when a call is placed). The existing QA manager only knew how to QA the cell phone handsets, not the call processing server side. I knew next to nothing about the cell phone handsets. It was clear the QA manager was not a good fit for me.

[2] He wasn't great. I don't think he was as bad as some other employees said he was. He was a developer who was forced into a management role.
You pay capital gains on any property sale where you earn income unless you reinvest the money in another property or use the one-time exemption. I don't know why you think the sale being within a year or not makes any difference. The major players know when you sell the stock and for how much, but they don't know the cost basis. The sale could be LIFO or FIFO and you might have transferred the stock into the brokerage without them ever knowing the purchase price. These are not edge cases.
Sorry to hear that this happens to you but I have never seen this issue on my AirPods Pro in the last 3 years or my AirPods 1st/2nd gen.
That's indeed challenging. Is there anything specific that helped you do the untangling?

And on the company front - how do you stay in touch with the overall direction while minimising those meetings?
I’m in favor of big general purpose languages. Why? Not for their own sake. Just because it’s tedious to use multiple languages.

- How do they communicate? Maybe Json if it’s just data. For more control you need FFI

- And FFI is such a hassle that some languages seem to focus mostly on getting a nice C FFI

- ... That lingua franca that proves that you can have all the simple languages that you want as long as its name is one letter and starts with “c”

- All kinds of minute differences that are real tradeoffs when it comes to each individual language become major pains when switching between them

- Sometimes you seem to have to rule out languages just because they don’t have good libraries for X. Or can’t do concurrent tasks. How are multiple small languages supposed to flourish when 20+ year old languages can’t get good library coverage or get rid of their global interpreter lock?

I would like small languages if they all played nicely together. But they almost never do.
But then what if you accidentally check in that workaround?

The strict compiler check would have had exactly the opposite effect from the intended one.
Good to know they use computational algorithms to perform ANC! What would we do without the innovators at Apple…

In other news, still no support for lossless audio, and the charging port is still Lightning rather than USB-C. Seems like a good time to pick up the 1st gen Pros on discount
A lot of sane improvements to the case (added speaker, lanyard loop, full U1 Find My support), good to see. They tout "H2 Apple Silicon, amazing sound quality with Adaptive EQ," but I can't find any reference to lossless audio in the tech specs, which is a bit of a disappointment.

It's surely ironic that Apple Music supports 24/192 lossless audio and none of its headphones can utilize it.
Just repeal the 16th amendment - the income tax is too intrusive, and its too much of a temptation for politicians to use it for social engineering. There are other ways to tax that do not require the government to know everything about what everyone is doing.
Indeed this is one of the more annoying features of the integrations I’ve seen.

Running through the type-checker is an interesting idea - even if you didn’t reject suggestions outright (which seems like it could frequently reject suggestions you actually wanted) it may be a useful weighting function.

Similarly, running through eslint (or whatever linting system is appropriate) to avoid introducing obvious fixable formatting errors, like incorrect quotes, would be wonderful.

Fear! Fear the Canadian healthcare system! Reject changes to the US system, fear universal single-pay healthcare! Fear it!

Seriously, though, while Canada’s healthcare system is under great strain due to staffing issues caused by the pandemic, it is well within the top third of global healthcare rankings. It needs improvements but “Reason” is engaged in fear-mongering for the benefit of its wealthy interests. Universal single-source healthcare would harm profits, after all.
>>So you'd need a 33% national sales tax.

or you know a massive reduction in Federal Spending, the fact that US Sales was 6 trillion, and the US Government spent 4 Trillion should be ringing some alarms bells in people....

If we need a 33% national sales tax, that tells me the federal government SPENDS FAR TOOO MUCH MONEY
Doesn't D have a debugger? Hitting F9 then F5 sounds a lot faster than fiddling around with the code, hoping that you forget to remove the assert before you go home and that you won't spend time pleasing the compiler.
a way for trillion dollar companies to pool resources to develop software they all need and minimize how many developers they need to hire

I don't see any problem with that as long as the companies are paying the developers, which they are in most cases. Major open source like Linux and k8s haven't been developed by volunteers for decades.
It might not be entirely altruistic or a personal challenge as mentioned in other replies. If I were someone who wanted to recruit a developer for some performance-critical Apple Watch work, I would put this person on a short list of people to reach out to.

I've encountered my fair share of such people and I probably was one of them for at least some portion of my own career :(

Is there anything in particular that worked for you?
Yes, absolutely a deal breaker... but I carry two phones b/c I do not trust Verizon after being disconnected overseas. Their international plan requires you to re-connect to a US-based cell tower in order to "reactivate" the international plan if it has been disconnected. I am not aware of any service that allows me to buy an e-sim for any given random country airport and activate it before I reach the exit.

edit: forgot to add ... if you change countries or have to make an additional unplanned hop, VZ does not work in that scenario either.
yes, wired earbuds are much better for calls
hmmm so CPP is good? not sure why the down votes?
(Tiny note, unsafe is a superset, not a subset.)
Yes, thank you intuit for making the process of filing taxes so easy and free but only if you make less than 70k a year or whatever their threshold is! Just a couple of clicks is all it takes!!

It’s such BS that these companies cause this tax mess to begin with and then get free goodwill and advertising based on them making it “easier.” It’s so infuriating.

Still no USB-C port. Disappointing.
Traveled to Central America, North America, UK, and various parts of EU, and I've never had any problems at all getting an eSIM sorted out. When I do upgrade to this new iPhone 14 Pro I will likely still bring my old iPhone 12 Pro that does have a physical sim slot JUST IN CASE, but in the past I've had no troubles with eSIMs. I think this is a non-issue from what I've seen, assuming it's not too remote of an area you are traveling to.
Even though today we build things with minimum cost, there's still not enough housing for everyone. There's a housing crisis in every major North American city, caused in large part by lack of affordable homes (and no, not everyone can work remotely from Quaint Townville, Wherever -- in fact, most can't).

It does not cost a million dollars to build a single detached house. Closer to a quarter million for materials and labour, give or take the cost of land. Profit for the seller is what makes up bulk of the cost. Profit margin for the builder. Decades of steady profit for the bank that sells and services the loan. The purpose of housing has become to be an investment vehicle, not shelter.

We could easily afford to build and maintain enough housing for everyone. Create and sustain vibrant communities where people's basic need of shelter are met. But it's just not compatible with the capitalist mindset.
That sounds like every vocal-tuned mic ever. Someone's kids could be two rooms away and barely audible to them, but over the mic they are amplified screams. Kitchen stuff, forget about it.
> use wording to make something mundane sound much more interesting or important.

Yes, but that doesn't apply here. Straight up matter of fact statements, like the one used in this title, is as mundane and uninteresting as is possible. The only thing that could garner less interest would be to permanently cut off all communication with others. The topic itself carries some interest, but the headline doesn't add to it.

"This one weird trick allows you to save 60% on ocean freight. International shippers hate him." would have been clickbait-y.
Technically they make a lot of revenue. The $25M threshold isn't a threshold on profitability, just company size. They could be losing money.
It's wild how much money Apple has made from Bluetooth headphones that don't suck. That's literally it. They're portable, pair easily and (somewhat) work with multiple devices. I have top of the line Bose Bluetooth headphones that still, in 2022, have issues with multiple devices. I can't count how many times I've started playing music on my iPhone only to realize that the headphones think my laptop is playing, so they just silently suppress my phone. And the only way to fix it is to go into the inane Bose app and disconnect the laptop. Why the hell can't you just tell the headphones to play from the phone and keep the laptop connected? It's so bad.
(added ref) True, this is problematic when you travel. May be they support multiple eSIMs. I have not found any one talking about it.

They are supporting dual eSIMs. https://www.apple.com/iphone-14-pro/specs/
I bet I've spent more time discussing taxes on HN than actually doing my taxes in the U.S. It really isn't that big of a thought, and I have a small business so it's even more complicated.
Hi, what do you mean by that?
Hey everyone, I built this little website that keeps an updated ranking of scientific papers published at the ICLR, ICML & NeurIPS conferences (2017-today) based on their citation count.

Hope it can be useful! Please let me know what you think :)

PS: You can also find some additional details about the project in this short article: https://mdturp.ch/highest-cited-ml-conference-paper/
The issues mentioned are existing issues in Android devices today and for a few years that the iPhone has full parity with, so I think even if the new features are dropped the criticism stands.
> As it should, since one is a clock, the other a web browser

Yeah. Surely a better statistic to be had.here. System preferences?
I noticed they said "the Watch scans for crash events 3,000 times a second" and then "The always-on display refreshes at 1 hertz"...

So it's "x times per second" if it's good and "y hertz" if it's bad lol
With iCloud Plus you're able to add custom email domains (really nice and tight integration with Cloudflare DNS for all the MX records) -- was a breeze to set up. Haven't put it through it's paces yet, though.
As it should, but not a given now that it's common for apps to bundle a whole browser as a runtime.
They said there will now be (I assume, optional) audio cues when you put your AirPods in the case to let you know they are charging, not sure if that will help or not. I agree with you though. It seems like it would be a really easy thing for Apple to check if 1 headphone was in the case (that it knew of) and the other wasn't but also that you weren't playing music/audio so it could warn you. I added a battery widget to my home screen to see if they are both charging. Thankfully this issue is rare-ish for me but when it does happen it's maddening.
Not mentioned here in the comments (and slightly unclear if you only read the title) is that the $16,000 was not USD but $16,000 AED, so about ~$60,000 USD.
But its just more library code to learn instead, isn't it?
The non-replaceable battery is a brilliant business model. Mine only work for an hour now.

I have to consider AirPods as a subscription now. (Even considering off-brand $70 repairs)
I used a pair of pros on my Android phone and they work fine to the time I used them(a few hours).
It’s 7mm larger diagonally than my 42mm watch, that’s crazy large, did it catch some kind of phablet virus?

Replaced by iCloud later. So it’s not something they will do, but something they have been doing for over two decades.
I'm surprised they aren't using the iPhone 14 in the promo images.

Anyway, looks like my old iPhone 7 is finally going to have to retire. :/ I can't wait for a good Linux phone.

Edit: 7 years of use isn't bad compared to Android, but the phone is still just fine, and it really bothers me that it's turning into e-waste for no good reason.
This has never happened to me. It's likely you have a defective unit, take it in.
Hi! So a phone could well benefit from RTK, but this is a local signal, so you have to pick up something that is relevant for your location. Meanwhile, the High Accuracy Service broadcasts realtime corrections, but it does so on a frequency band that is not supported by phone handsets. Also, the RF conditions in most urban environments are such that I'm not sure such corrections would be received well enough to matter in most cases. Phones are moving to dual frequency chipsets which will also improve accuracy without further help. Hope this helps!
had the same problem, if you're just prototyping, it's easy to silence that with _ = someVar

you get used to it after some time - much better than for example rust, where you have to figure out all the lifetimes, muts and generic traits before.
Incremental changes. Several minor updates makes a big update. That's why most people don't buy two generations successively.
I do think planned economies generally fail though - capitalism (meaning the process of letting individual agents decide on resource allocation) is a very powerful tool for optimizing something, and trying to centralize that decision making requires way more processing power. There’s just a huge amount of parallelizability here that you miss out on by having the government try to do allocation.

Don’t take this as me saying unregulated capitalism works even a little bit, you definitely need someone in charge of operating that tool or you end up in our current mess.
Yeah this happens to me a lot too when using my airpods pro on zoom calls. Good to know I'm not the only one experiencing this.
That’s ok - very few ears can utilize it either ;-)
https://projects.csail.mit.edu/gsb/old-archive/gsb-archive/g... The OG only specifies that it's "related" to the task, and makes it pretty clear that one could come up with a significantly cleaner path to the original goal - Yak Shaving overlaps heavily with "flimsy rationalization"
Maybe this becomes the equivalent of `go fmt` in 10 years. “How I learned to stop worrying and love errors-only”
I'm talking in general, nothing to do with iPhone 14.

Apple released fall detection in Apple Watch few years ago, there are already stories of lives it saved.

I'm pretty sure if Apple had an outstanding software bug of not being able to call emergency services for over a year now, I'm pretty sure we (HN crowd) would know it by now.
It's far closer to an insurance company than a utility. And either way, utilities aren't common carriers.
Man, feel like I shoulda picked up the M40 instead then, since it was 24 GB VRAM in total. :(

Oh well, I've spent $90 on dinners and had far less fun than I will have with this video card when it arrives, so I can't say it was wasted money... and I can always just buy an M40 off eBay.

If RTX 3090 prices keep dropping through the floor, I may just bite the bullet and pick one up. I saw a ZOTAC on sale for $999 recently, which is $500 less than the launch MSRP of $1499 (which honestly is where it should have launched anyway... so far as I'm concerned, these cards only just now hit reasonable pricing).
its called CYA

Local government can't make a decision without paying a consultant six figures
What bugs me most about Pro vs non-Pro models is that they don't enable you to take macro shots on the non-Pro models. Even my old Samsung s8 could do those - yet on lots of newer phones (iphone and android) macro shots are for some reason not possible on the cheaper versions. I'm pretty sure that's not because it requires expensive camera features but because it serves as a way to segregate the market.
Dynamic Island looks neat (reminds me of webOS) BUT controls at the top of the screen still work poorly, especially on these bigger phones. I had a little hope when Apple introduced those controls in iOS 16 on the lower half of the lock screen but alas... I'm curious how it works in landscape orientation if at all. If there were a ‘iPhone 14 Pro mini’ that would be amazing
The main selling point of AirPods Pro is replaceable tips and noise cancelling. People say competitors have mostly caught up in Bluetooth quality, but it’s the only noise cancelling I’ve used without the sucking feeling that hurts your ears.
Violently robbed, at that.
How is that related to this in anyway? What "narrative"?
You can already download the RC with the public beta profile. Released few minutes ago.

I'm not at all trying to change your mind (I've never used Zig so I can't comment there), but just FYI:

1. Rust uses Zulip (ie, not Discord or Slack),

2. Rust doesn't lack for promising-looking, declarative/reactive UI frameworks: https://iced.rs/, https://crates.io/crates/egui, for example.
Don’t forget about the car crash mode ... what a joke.
And blood pressure monitoring would be a a huge feature.
Tell me that the headphones have AI without telling me the headphones have AI. That's probably what they were thinking when they wrote that.
Here's how it should work! The IRS has a page, you can go look at it and say "eh ok" or you can click further and do whatever you think is important to update.

And the tax companies can offer to do that "click further" for you, and you then would see how much they saved you (if any at all). Heck, make it so the IRS always charges a "I dun wanna read anything" fee of $50 that you can get out of by clicking "uh no" like the presidential one. That would satisfy most people, heh.

Complex scenarios can still be handled by hand if the taxpayer wants.
It makes no sense that a programming language age would be judged in terms of other contemporary products.
This is the exact issue I've run into. Land in good location is cheap near me. But only a handful of counties in the entire nation have building codes loose enough that let you make use of it affordably.
Yes. Even for domestic travel. I’m travelling to a remote island in my country for a short holiday. My network doesn’t have coverage there (only one of the “big four” has decent coverage) so I’ve picked up a prepay SIM to use for a few days. No networks in the UK support prepay SIMs (other than some quite dubious international roaming MVNOs).

International travel usually involves stopping by a kiosk or store at the airport to pick up a SIM. They’re absolutely universal.

Both this and the reply saying you should open an RFC worry me that it was tongue-in-cheek.
