Y’all know that the autocompletes are different for different users, right?
Same with cyclists. Head units from Garmin or Wahoo are far superior but an Apple Watch could be a decent alternative if it at least supported ANT+ to connect a power meter and a range of sensors. Or Strava Live Segments (maybe they do via the Strava App?).

Currently The Apple Watch is a nice casual fitness tracker and the Watch Ultra doesn't change any of that.
Case in point. Hydrogen energy storage.

It's so very nearly amazing in several different formats and applications. Net result is it's kinda okayish in a couple of niches.
Thanks for posting this! I'm glad I had the chance to share some feedback. I only wish I had seen an "Other Feedback" box to simply say thanks to everyone trying to make things better.

tl;dr: exposure to sunlight without sunscreen has benefits for cardiovascular health - and the kinds of cancer you get from direct exposure to sunlight on a regular basis (basal cell and squamous cell carcinomas) are almost never fatal. The benefits to CV health significantly outweigh the increased risk of these carcinomas.

Melanomas only account for 1-3% of skin cancers and are less likely in outdoor workers and tanned people than they are in indoor workers.

> “The risk factor for melanoma appears to be intermittent sunshine and sunburn, especially when you’re young,” says Weller. “But there’s evidence that long-term sun exposure associates with less melanoma.”

Makes sense, humans probably wouldn't have made it this far without going outside.

Yeah, but you still made the trillion pounds of e-waste from everything you did do, and profitted off of jony's shitty fucking life-cycle understanding of anything plastic...

Fuck Jobs worship.

He DID CREATE a ton of shit that the world doesnt need in the environment and by claiming that appl is some beacon of the most amazing design - nope. If appl was the bastion for thought on product design, I wouldnt have ~20 broken iphones, some of which went through many screens, nor would I have a fuck-ton-pil of shitty designed cables that cost $30 a piece, or a lot more of lame chinese knock-offs that they tried to block the device from recognizing, nor would there be a trillion tons of defunct plastic phone cases all over the world...

Your company is THE REASON SUICIDE NETS EXIST at foxcon

jony is a guy who literally removed any sort of lanyard hook from the phone -- when literally every phone in asia at the time of the iphone launch had one, AND there was an entire market for lanyard styles and accessories - because the lanyard "interfered with his vision" -- which CLEARLY his vision was FUCK TON of broken screens for appl profit.

If you dont know the history.... fuck that.

Should I fucking go on?

They are an environmental psychopath trying to punch you in the face with pollution and telling you to love them and give them money.

I have the oculus rift, the quest and the quest2 - I like black, I don't have an issue with smears, I never noticed it in games. I prefer the deep black. Quake has been ported to the Rift (oled), I've been playing it, it's great, I don't notice (or mind) smears.
I've been tinkering with mobile setups since the ipod nano series and my experiments with hmd's and monoculars. I followed the VR-psychology/physiology research since day 1 as I love the intersection. Reducing the field of view impacts potential nausea significantly. The field of view with a monocular is much smaller then current VR glasses.

I’m also banned for life: I can’t login without my old phone number, and I can’t update my old phone number without logging in. Guess that makes me more of a hotel person now.
Yep, 18 out of 20 of my top threads are delivery updates, 2FA, service updates (ISP data rollovers, for example), or advertising.

One of the "real" threads moved to WhatsApp after a couple of messages and the other was me forwarding one of the delivery updates from within the SMS app.

Sadly everyone I know is on WhatsApp and no one uses Signal.
Sure, the CEO delegates decisions to his COO. Ok, now the COO has to decide which 5 projects to find out of the 12 the company wants to do.

Business decisions are rarely black and white which is why if you can’t articulate why you should get resources, you won’t - someone who can articulate their value better will get resources. And if they can convince someone else their idea is best, now you’ve got two people advocating (i.e. politics).

The larger orgs get the more politics because there is simply to much going on for any one person to have all the information needed to make a decision - they can only rely on others to argue for their own priorities.
EU wireless products RED directive adds new network security requirements
he EU wireless product RED directive 2014 / 53 / EU has included network security in the requirements of the directive in February this year, and will be enforced from August 1, 2024.

There are also a number of cases where someone got mild covid, and then months later got vaccinated and developed pericarditis and myocarditis.
Seems highly likely, acquiring Globalstar that is. Having one customer account for 85% of your business, however you want to count that, is extremely risky.

I had a previous employer who would get concerned when one customer accounted for 20%+ of revenue. You can sort of fix this by increasing revenue, but Globalstar sold 85% of capacity, for a resource that is expensive and difficult to increase. The upside is that many customers will want to be on the same service as Apple, so that might help grow their business.
Hotels have always been superior.
From the docs:
Blech is a German word and roughly translates as bare metal. As its name suggests, a Blech program can run on pretty much anything:

* directly on “the Blech” in an embedded device,

* on top of a realtime OS,

* as a safety-critical component integrated via some middleware,

* in combination with a simulation model.

It seems he got banned for leaving a review of his Airbnb host on another platform, but of course he can’t be sure of that because of their weaselly “we don’t have to say why”. Aside from the unbelievable shiftiness of the place he booked, that sounds like a pretty bullshit cause for a ban.

I got banned from localbitcoins when I left a negative review on a seller that wanted a photo of my drivers license / password citing the risk of identity theft (localbitcoins already has my ID verified).

They removed my review and I got banned, interesting how they're behind ID theft...
Being able to have a 2-way conversation with search & rescue to explain the situation and get updates is the biggest one.

As for other things worth paying for: being able to text your family back home and let them know you're running a day late but everything's ok so not to report you as missing goes a long way to helping everyone involved have some peace of mind.

Coordinating pickups and getting weather updates are also big value-adds.
Well of course doctors would - they’re not going through it so don’t have all the emotional baggage the patients do.
During an inflation your salary is likely going up, and so are all other assets that you own or buy.

Let's say you owe 100000 EUR for a 200000 EUR house, pay 2% interest, inflation rate of 10%. Your net worth is 100000 EUR in the first year.

If you repay 8000 EUR, the next year you owe 92000+2%*92000=93840 EUR and your net worth is 220000-93840= 126160 EUR.

If you repay 4000 EUR and invest 4000 EUR in gold, next year you owe 100000-4000+2%*96000=97920 EUR, your gold is worth 4400 EUR after inflation and your net worth 220000-97920+4400=126480 EUR. Plus you have improved liquidity.

If the inflation rate is higher than the interest of your loan, it's often better to invest in inflation-proof assets.

Exactly. You don't have to like him or like his work. But to fail to see his talent is like thinking that Magnus Carlsen was just in the right place at the right time. Your domain knowledge would have to be so abysmally low that you would have no business even making the claim.

I've looked at several tree diffing papers, including Chawathe et al, but it's not always easy to assess whether their approach would suit difftastic.

I know that sdiff by Arun Isaac is based on applying that paper to Scheme: https://archive.fosdem.org/2021/schedule/event/sexpressiondi... , although he also reports performance challenges.

Most tree diffing papers that I've seen focus on either (1) providing a minimal diff and accepting the performance cost or (2) providing a relatively minimal diff and focusing on the performance.

I've generally found that you need a minimal diff to get a good result, so papers in (2) are less applicable. I've also found several cases where there are several possible minimal diffs, but there's a clear 'correct' answer from the user's perspective.

Difftastic doesn't handle moves: the edit set is add, remove, or replace similar comment. If you reorder functions, it will take the largest unchanged subset. Moves are hard to model in a diffing algorithm, but they're also very hard to display coherently in the UI.

I know a few code forge websites (e.g. Phabricator) show moves in a fairly comprehensible way, although they're all based on line-based diffs.

This is different from insurance in that insurance has very few, but large payouts shared by many small cost subscriptions.

But it is like insurance in that it is a (likely very) large upfront cost for Apple that needs to be shared by many small subscriptions.

If no one has to pay for it until they need it, the venture from Apple's side goes in the red.

Agreed with the artist part. My previous startup (headlime.com, acquired by Jasper.ai), was mostly used by copywriters instead of non savvy folks. I genuinely believe that text2image AI will help artists, not hurt them.
I have Garmin fenix 6s now. I do long runs and thus switched to Garmin from Apple watch way back then. With the Watch Ultra I am thinking in few iteration it might become a fair choice for me.

What I really hope is that Apple somehow allow battery extensions. E.g. a battery extension strap or something along that line. Then it will for sure be a choice for me.

Imagine on back of the wrist is the watch and a battery on the other side that connects to the watch and extends the battery life for days.
The problem with supporters of schools is that you have a very idealized view of what's happening there. I get it, you had it good - but you shouldn't ignore that there's a pretty significant amount of kids who don't fit into the system. Nobody wants to cancel schools completely - just different options for kids who aren't going to thrive there.

When I sat next to other kids there weren't discussions, there was fighting and stealing my stuff and teachers not reacting because they sat me next to the precious ones who couldn't do anything wrong so "they keep an eye on me" - and then punishing me for my missing stuff. When we had to do projects I was the only one working and the other kids ignoring me on purpose - but somehow that was my fault too and I got a bad grade because "it was supposed to be a team project".

Fuck schools. It's not my fault I was born with ADHD - and if you force me into the school then it's on you to learn to deal with it. But that's not going to happen - and thus homeschooling is the way for my children.
Fusion reactors would have to be enormously bigger than fission plants. And cost correspondingly more both to build and to operate.
Are they exceptions? I'm sure they had normal families and lives prior to their murderous transitions.

My point is be careful how much you choose to let people get away with a "they're just human" pass. Some people deserve the labels. For anyone that worked with Steve I'm willing to bet they think he deserves the arsehole label they give him.
Hmm, I guess it depends on what this will look like long-term, but I'd expect that regular uBO will be "upgraded" to this version when MV2 is deprecated in Chrome for good, possibly including the name change (if allowed by Google).

Edit: ah, looking at gorhill's comments it looks like this is not intended to be the MV3 version of uBO, but just one that has minimal permissions. Then I guess uBO will migrate in its own time.
There's the German Thinkpad Wiki [1] which helped me choose a model, because they list every component/spec/variant there with all their hardware details, bugs and typical problems (with firmware versions that usually just need to be updated before you install Linux).

(A quick side note: Current mesa has issues with Haswell and Broadwell CPUs due to the (now still) incomplete Vulkan migration. Just as a heads-up)

In the UK the vast majority of national tax take is either baked into the price of goods (things like VAT, alcohol, petrol taxes) or taken off by your employer.

Each month I get a payslip saying I've earned £xxxx and £yyyy has been taken in various taxes and other deductions (from pension to [optional] healthcare, some of which comes off pre tax, some post tax), and the balance is transferred into my nominated bank account each month.

At the end of the year I get a summary from my employer called a P60, which shows how much tax I've paid.

If I have complex needs I then have 9 months to go to a gov.uk website, fill in that data, and either get a rebate or a bill. If it's a bill then they adjust my tax code (which defines the deductions) the next year it takes about 10 minutes (or I can just pay straight away), if it's a rebate they pay it direct to my account (or they can adjust next years deductions)

For self employed people then, but you likely have an accountant who handles everything, and pay yourself via dividends, making large enough tax savings to easily pay accountant fees (which for a small business is pretty low)

I don't consider tax a burden, I consider it the cost of living in a western society. I don't have to pay them - I could move to Svalbard or a country that would take me and pay taxes in that country. Even Americans can do this (and get rid of their US citizenship - saying "no I don't want the benefits of American society")

HARDWARE SIDE:

The cheapest will be to ... not buy laptop. You can go for 2 in 1 and use your Android phone (if you have one) or buy one.

Any Android phone will do the job, but best look for one with USB3.1 (these will support display port on phones USB socket) as it carries video signal as well.

Here you have phones released in 2021 and 2022 supporting it:

If you want to go for used phone feel free to refine search and set older years.

Portable screen you can get on Chinese websites for as little as 80-150USD (with shipping including)

Then get yourself bluetooth keyboard with trackpad (there are even foldable ones), or BT keyboard and BT mouse (whatever you like) and you should be already good.

Nice to have is also USB-C hub with HDMI output, so you can plug any wired USB devices or output via HDMI to regular screen or TV, these will cost 10-20USD with shipping

Optionally: You might also want a better control over your Android OS, or be able to receive updates way longer than vendor ships them - if so I will recommend to go for one of the phones supported here https://download.lineageos.org/ (most modern hardware with USB3.1 is supported by OnePlus, but you might find other brands and models that does the job)

SOFTWARE SIDE:

First you need install Termux on Android, it is kind of linux shell for Android linux kernel (all you basically need to start any development)

Once you'll have this, you can head for gcc, clang or whatever you need

I’ll ask it here since I’ve not seen it mentioned anywhere: the Kolmogorov work is interesting, but doesn’t it exclude the information necessary to produce a team of educated humans, a universal computer, a programming language, and a compiler/interpreter, at least?

I would've said so, too, before my GF got into the reef tank hobby. Corals are ridiculously sensitive to pretty much everything. Light, chemicals, nutrients, water flow, diurnal rhythms, you name it. It's fairly believable that something in the low parts per billion might affect them adversely, particularly organisms that are already stressed.
