> Since when did Apple have any obligation to provide iMessage to Android users?

They don't. But that's not necessarily the complaint either.

The argument is that they do have an obligation to not intentionally break the native cell service you paid for, which is exactly what they're doing by ignoring the RCS portion of modern LTE (GSMA) spec.

It's got nothing to do with iMessage in truth. iMessage is simply how Apple has chosen to frame their excuse for intentionally breaking your cell service.

"orders of magnitude" :

Why does anyone ever write "two orders of magnitude" when 100x is shorter?

Of course, this presumes 10 as the magnitude and the N orders to be the exponent, but I don't think I've ever, since the 90s, seen that stilted phrasing ever used for a base other than 10.

As for the traitor thing, it's what the population is saying, try to get in touch with students, it's what contributed to the assassination of Abe and the current events (majority of the population against a national funeral, why? it was their prime minister, such figure this disliked?)

My personal opinion: You don't assassinate your prime minister over a donation to a religious group, you do it because you are a nationalist and you punish act of treason

> Just curious, why would you get buttons instead of sensors?

Two things:

1. Long hair. If your hair is in the way, you have to brush it away before the sensors will correctly register your input.

2. Beanies. If you wear an acrylic beanie (due to the aforementioned long hair), there is enough capacitance detected in contact with the material to generate spurious, and unwanted, inputs.

Tactile buttons would solve both of these issues.

Yes.

An average of 9,700 deaths each year are believed to be caused by living in a cold house, according to research by National Energy Action (NEA) (UK).

> I don't get it. What is a "community manager"? Is it someone that runs a company's social media page?

No, that's a social media manager, completely different role.

> And do they think that people care about their brand so much that they would join a community of people whose only common trait is liking the same brand?

Yes! It happens all the time. Most of the biggest brands have a community of people who share that common trait.

> And in the first place, how do you even build a "community" manually and artificially?

Again yes, just like you build a garden. The gardener doesn't make the plants grow, but they do make sure they have the right environment and resources to grow in.

> The article implies that community building should be some kind of altruistic purpose, where your only goal is to maximize the amount of "meaningful relationships" created?

That's not altruism. Those meaningful relationships help the company/project the community was built around. They provide feedback, help improve processes, make connections outside the company/project, provide support to other users, there are too many things that communities do to list them all here.

Why has Ukraine rarely lost power, water or internet? Why isn't Russia destroying civilian infrastructure en masse? Because it's not a war in the same way the US went to war with Iraq, for example (one of the first things the US did was target civilian infrastructure).

You're just a clueless American without the basic background knowledge to see this situation for what it is: a preemptive defensive strike against an ever-expanding, finance-capital-backed NATO.
Ah, didn't know that. That's frustrating.

But agreed - this _does_ feel like something that could be detectable, over time.
Per a video someone else posted it seems there's communication with (probably just) emergency services which (for some use cases) is probably more useful than just a personal locator beacon.
That's another good one. I feel like the crowd that used to code all that horror for Wordpress, Magento, Joomla, and other PHP CMSes, slowly moved to jQuery from backend coding, and then has transitioned to React full-time as things became more frontend-heavy. Still same freelancers from 3rd world countries and junior devs who just want to pay their bills and honestly don't even like computers that much. That's why there's so much terrible software today, not just websites. Back in the 90s and early 00s our industry was full of people who truly loved computers and wanted to make something good. Today you have to really be careful what tech stack you pick, that can make a difference between being surrounded by people who just blindly follow popular trends and real badasses who can make something great out of nothing.

Looks quite promising. One question; how do I configure CPU limits of the function? I could see that there is a variable for memory configuration in environments file but not for CPU. Or maybe the same logic applies here as in lambda where we set the memory and computing power is adjusted accordingly?

To my knowledge, the U.S. military has not been used for looting and plundering in the modern era.

If you are going to say "but Iraq 2003!" I would ask you to consider the money we spent funding that expedition vs. the supposed financial gain. The reasons to invade weren't great, but looting and plundering were not among them.

Show HN: How simple (but clever) algorithms can find label issues in datasets
I built Vizzy as a hackathon project, with the goal of explaining how relatively simple (but clever) algorithms can be a powerful tool to automatically find issues in datasets, including label errors and out-of-distribution data.

Vizzy uses a JavaScript port of (a part of) https://github.com/cleanlab/cleanlab, which implements the algorithms described in https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.00068.

There are other neat technical nuggets in the implementation of Vizzy as well, including ML model training in the browser (using features from a pretrained ResNet-18, performing truncated SVD, and using an SVM model for speed). If you’re interested in the details of how Vizzy works, check out this blog post: https://cleanlab.ai/blog/cleanlab-vizzy/

I’m happy to answer any questions related to Vizzy, cleanlab, or confident learning and data-centric AI in general!
Some countries do have (theoretically) privatized passenger rail systems. It can be done without subsidies too, the UK nearly managed that for a brief period, but then decided to pay for the construction of huge new railways. If you aren't expanding the network though, subsidy free operation is possible. Of course we can argue they're not really private because in practice the government won't let them fail as a group. But in normal times at least, companies that want to exit the space can give up their license or be outcompeted for them.

SpaceX exists because there's now lots of use cases for going into space. In the 60s indeed going into space wasn't so useful and it happened so early just because of the space race.
Lots of technologies have gone from "not cheap" to dirt cheap in my lifetime so this isn't really an argument.

Let me give you an example. Right now I have at least half a dozen 6-9 channel IMUs on my person. Most of which cost from a couple of dollars to a few cents apiece. When I was a kid a much less precise IMU could cost more than a decent car. If you asked people who worked on equipment containing IMUs back then they would probably not have predicted today's price point and the fact that billions of these devices are owned by people of all levels of wealth.

Before the advent of MEMS devices, cheap chip manufacturing and a mobile market to drive up volumes and drive down costs it was fairly hard to envision that you could make a decent precision IMU and make a profit selling it for pocket change.

In fact, when I was a kid, nobody very few people who ran numbers really believed that mobile phones could be had for less money than a dinner at a not-even-fantastic-restaurant within our lifetime.

If you are to argue that something can't happen, you kind of have to find compelling argument rooted in fundamental limitations.

I don't think fission is ever going to be cheap as it deals with materials that are tricky. But I'm not ready to make the assumption that they can't be made cheaper per kWh than, say wind or solar (as you have to combine these with storage to solve the same problem).
Don't be angry at your frustration, it already feels bad enough.

Don't be angry at your shame, it already feels bad enough.

Don't be angry at your anger, it already feels bad enough.

All of your "bad" emotions can feed other "bad" emotions.

The "bad" emotions are a way for your mind to tell you to avoid or change something. They aren't bad in the same way that hunger isn't bad. Hunger feels bad, but it's a signal that tells you to change something or do something.

This is not a comprehensive comment. There are very important things I didn't say here.
WebAuthn drastically improves authentication.

For starters, it doesn't release any secret information into the wild. Instead, it uses a public/private key pair to challenge the user to decrypt something that only she or he can decrypt. The website (as an example) no longer stores anything but your public key, which doesn't reveal anything.

Secondly, you can't give away your passkey information so it is for all practical purposes unphishable. (I can't conceive of a way that it might be phished, but that doesn't mean there isn't one.)

In addition, it is super-duper easy on users. They don't have to remember anything, and can login with the touch of a finger or a glance at the camera.

This is a huge step forward in authentication.
It got better. Now you can use Android pay in the buses and at train stations. The ticket app is decent too.

My longest living e-device is Kindle both in 2014. There is no perceived loss of value. So it should be important to weight the user expectations into the equation.

But Fairphone with e-ink screen, decent camera and battery would be something I would use for a decade.

> I don't want to join a new company and leave soon after -- they don't deserve that treatment

You're projecting your own feelings onto the situation, there's nothing wrong with bailing on a company, you don't owe them anything.

You need to prioritize your own family's well-being over some random company's 'feelings'.

Just take whatever vacation/sick days you have and look for another job. Back pain is one condition you can get a doctors note for without any 'evidence'.

> I will probably owe them a big chunk of the sign-on bonus (dumb mistake on my end)

Lawyer up.

My own experience when I was 'pushed out' was I was getting micro-managed to a stupid degree by someone who didn't understand my job, they also tried to get me to fire some of my staff, when I told my staff (mistake!) management denied it making me look like a complete a*hole, eventually I got suspended and just didn't go back.

I walked into a better job, the same week, literally just up the road from where I was. Trust it will all work out.

> inevitable casual consequence

What consequences are those? I cannot think of a single real life consequence for anyone being discussed on KF, unique to KF, short of the mere fact that people's dirty laundry was being preserved for public comment.

That's the real reason this movement is so noisy. No one cared about Encyclopedia Dramatica to this extent. The reason is, everyone knew ED's content was 50% nonsense. So even if ED does discuss some real embarrassing dirt on someone, it's right next to "lol and dis person does seedy things under the overpass"; it's easy to ignore.

KF, on the other hand, keeps receipts and is obsessive about documenting the truth. That's the real reason they're wanting to take the site down.

The person spearheading this campaign is not concerned about their safety. A casual perusal of their social media is very convincing of that.

Like, ok, let's say this is just about doxing, I guess. Do you think we could discuss the individuals involved without their address on twitter or reddit without getting banned? Where do you go to discuss serious violations of human dignity, except the perpetrators are the "wrong" demographic? Do you really think that is tolerated on the mainstream internet?

I mean, the crowd is already setting their sights on Ovarit and similar sites. Ovarit doesn't permit doxing people's addresses. Is that going to protect them from these people?

That is definitely a tall statement short on evidence. We expect there to be countless islands in latent space - this is basically a related concept to grandmother neurons, although instead of "Jennifer Aniston neuron" we have this "Loab neuron" which has no particular obvious origin. But I don't think there is anything privileged or special about this cluster.

Apple has a really strong track record of resisting Government intrusion, within the bounds of the law, not selling customer data to third parties, and holding app developers to account for the privacy of their apps. The others have business models based entirely on selling user data.

The contentious element is the "within the bounds of the law" bit. In the US and Europe that means a lot, because Apple can use the courts to block government overreach and they have done so. In China they can't do that, so they don't just as nobody else operating within China can.

Google does deserve credit for refusing to operate their search services within China, while Apple and many other companies decided they were willing to do business there on Chinese government terms.
That's the history as well, individual banks used to issue paper notes which were redeemable for something "real" (gold in the vault). This evolved to the system we have today where they did away with the gold.
I believe that change is the cover story to prevent a cascading bank failure. We made it illegal to go to work for a year, we were at a serious risk of a deflationary spiral and the fed did a LOT to flood the economy with dollars. That appears to be one of them.

Similarly, if you go look at the M1 money supply chart you see that vertical line. The average person goes "WTH!!" and they are told "The vertical line is where we changed how the M1 is calculated" and the average person goes back to sleep. But even a middle schooler knows you can't just arbitrarily change how the Y axis is calculated mid-stream. It makes the chart useless. They could have back-filled with the new way of calculating or forward-calculated with the old way for some period of time. The chart is useless on purpose. It's friction between an average viewer and understanding what happened in the economy. And only "weirdos" and "conspiracy theorists" bother to overcome the friction to try to figure out what goes on.
Some folks I know who wait tables earn in excess of $750/1k a week…for basically part-time work.

I am sure they would be all for a $15/hour minimum wage, as long as tips were still on the table. However, $15/hour and “we don’t accept tips” sign…you would get a big nope. I doubt you could convince them that it would be better for them to earn $300 for their 20 hours of work.

That being said, many of the surveillance provisions in the act were retained in other bills and the history and current situation is pretty complicated[2].

In the UK road tax is based on your car's CO2 emissions.

The problem is when the VW scandal broke, lots of people had bought diesels to lower their CO2 and suddenly diesels were evil and needed disincentivising. So the problem is anything like that isn't cleverly designed enough to be trustworthy, or even if it is, political whim could still overturn it.

While I think smartphones absolutely do "hijack" our attention on a daily basis given arguments from Neil Postman & Nicolas Carr to name a couple, I think that removing it completely from life will just have your attention directed into something else. It is awareness and mindfulness that helps you direct your attention to meaning, regardless of technology.

The fun part about these conscious experiments is that they can be even more profound the second time around doing them. You realize it's not necessarily the device/tool, but rather the mindfulness you have now developed with it.
