Tinnitus, a sign of hearing loss, is when you hear ringing or other disturbances in one or both of your ears. This condition may appear as a negative side effect of various drugs (mostly antibiotics), exposure to loud noise, or specific events, such as traumas like bomb explosions. The last type of tinnitus is connected to the death of brain tissue.

Microsoft isn't funding UNI. Communication Workers of America, which is working to unionize Microsoft employees, is. They're on opposing sides.

CWA recently got Microsoft to agree to be neutral on whether Activision Blizzard employees join a union after the acquisition closes. This was a big win for CWA. It's likely that CWA doesn't want to risk this agreement by attacking Microsoft on an unrelated issue.

It sounds like UNI was only interested in funding this report in order to use it in their fight against Amazon. When they found out it might create other problems for them, they got cold feet.

This isn't going to be a very useful survey since the headline here will only attract the attention of people (like myself) that have JS disabled.

That said, we're normally undercounted because JS itself is used to do the counting so I guess this balances things out.

If a site doesn't display without JS then my first move is to toggle off CSS and see if I can read it. If I can't I check source to see if I can read it. If I can't I close the tab.
The original NT subsystems were for OS/2, POSIX, and Win32 and were called simply the "OS/2 Subsystem", "POSIX Subsystem", and "Win32 Subsystem". If they had stuck with the sensible NT naming convention, WLS would have simply been the Linux Subsystem.

I don't run but I do a lot of walking. My mind wanders a huge amount during my walks, which I find nice. I am usually so focused on preventing my mind from wandering, even in leisure activities, for example by focusing on a movie or book. Sometimes I stay up later because it means I'll fall asleep quicker and not be alone with my thoughts waiting for sleep for as long. But I think there's a definite need in the human mind for time to sort things out internally, even if (and maybe especially if) there's thoughts you're trying to escape from.

I don't know enough about chess mid-game and end-game to know whether chess is the same as poker in this regard, but poker is absolutely not a game of memorization deeper into the game tree even at the highest levels. tl;dr the author knows nothing about the state of high level poker play and I suspect they don't know much about high level chess either.

Chess and poker both require memorization or at least very strong understanding of the early game. In chess this is openings and has been required for as long as I can remember. In poker this is preflop play. Poker extends this a bit into flop play, but already on the flop there is a lot of opportunity for creativity because there are countless strategies that are indistinguishable from one another within reasonable precision targets.

As you descend deeper into the game tree for turn and river play we enter into territory that cannot be memorized due to number of possibilities and the increasing impossibility of having perfectly executed all the way to the current decision point. This opens up a lot of room for creativity and exploitation.
Ask HN: Companies hiring remote worldwide and not paying less?
Nowadays, everyone wants a remote job because they are amazing.

Unfortunately, some companies think it's fair to pay a worker less because he is living in a country in which the currency is devalued.

Example: the company pays 120k USD to a worker living in United States, and pays 72k USD to another because he lives in India/Brazil/etc.

What are some companies that are fair and pay the same amount no matter where you are?
> I’m not sure I care much about repairability.

I think for me repairability comes down to: how long do you think this phone is supposed to be usable? Even if you don't own it (have gifted or sold it). Probably an ecological argument there.

Primarily, given there is no up-to-date free/opensource phone OS (not to mention baseband software updates) after Apple iOS support ends... the phone can realistically only last till then unless you want to use legacy software (I have one relative who has such a device - but I'd not want one myself).
I would read it as cheer-pex.
Yes, lots of uses.

One of the bigger hits was Berkeley Lights, a big deal in early cell line development for monoclonal antibodies: https://www.berkeleylights.com/technology/

But there’s be numerous others. All have advanced state of the art. But as another commenter said, not much for home use. Just industry.
You are saying that as if the part of the X11 protocol that's reasonable to run over the network was the better API that application developers are simply too lazy to use.

While the reality is, that toolkits (and applications) used to use those APIs and were revamped to use the DRI APIs and general bitmap based windowing.
The old APIs don't support double buffering, access to GPUs with modern APIs (both opengl[indirect sucks] and Vulkan).
They don't provide modern font rendering, or any kind of graphical effect (distortions) that UI people might want to play with.

They would be significantly worse for anything displaying animations and one of the most common client libs (libx11) is serial and thus horribly latency sensitive.

The advantage of VNC isn't lossy compression. Which isn't forced by it either. But it handles networking better with bitmaps. And has improvements like acting as a screen/tmux style connectable session for graphical applications.
Both VNC/RDB can also support showing the server's desktop if it has one, not just running other applications than currently open elsewhere.

The only advantage of old style X11 was that it's ubiquitous. But since it hasn't been used in ages since it doesn't work well with modern computers/UI frameworks that advantage is gone.
And there's 0 reason to try and reimplement that in a new windowing protocol, when there's objectively better choices out there already. Local optimized windowing is a different beast than network capable.
Where is the compassion for contributing members of society who have to deal with this on a daily basis?

The fact that the people arguing against this spend less time arguing against the massive spending increases for the american military is a pretty big hint that the central point is "I want to punish my fellow american, I want them to hurt." and not the actual money amount.

This is a gross and dehumanizing view because you built a gross and dehumanizing strawman. Do you connect on a personal level with American conservatives in real life? The many I know are compassionate people at an individual level, and you might argue better and have a better chance of convincing people of your viewpoint if you charitably[0] interpreted their position as something like: welfare benefits should be temporary (for those who are able to work and are looking, but are temporarily unemployed) and minimal (for those who either aren't capable of working or choose not to); welfare should not "pay" better than work; and the government should prove that the redistribution of wealth they enforce to pay for welfare is in fact doing what it set out to do, instead of creating a class of permanent welfare beneficiaries who could actually be gainfully employed instead.

Very few people are actually wanting "undesirable elements" to "die".

It’s not just about AlbinoBlacksheep and NewGrounds. Flash was the most consequential technology on the web’s frontend prior to and even after html5. It was enabled on a staggering 98% of web browsers. So much so it was basically synonymous with web browsing. You can trace the trail of flash to the invention and adoption of social media.

In practice, as an American, we have a custom of paying merchants to cheat us out of a penny. As in, if a charge come out to $4.99, we hand the cashier a $5 bill and a penny, with the expectation of not receiving change. We also have leave-a-penny-take-a-penny trays by some cash registers with free pennys funded by customer donations.

Hi Dima, this looks really good! I see examples for Storybook and Next.js. Would this work with other technologies and configurations? For instance is there a way to point it at an external dev sandbox to capture full page screenshots of an existing site... say a WordPress site or other CMS? I have a use case where I want to test full page screenshots but need the environment that is hosting a copy of the content/database to test against, not just the components used in the pages.
> I certainly do not believe in the slightest that humanities graduates can “critically evaluate public policy” any better than, say, STEM graduates.

They are better at evaluating certain types of policies than STEM graduates.

I've met a lot of engineers who are incapable of understanding what a social construct is, or the societal consequences of hate speech, or who don't know what market failure is, or who are totally ignorant of the history of slavery and the indigenous genocide, who don't know anything about international relations, or various other things which are just child's play for humanities graduates which all have deep relevance to certain policies. This shows me that a polity with just STEM graduates and tradespeople is a polity that can't function properly. Without humanities education (whether self-education or otherwise), the only response to Biden talking about "white supremacy" in his speech is pitchforks and fascism, because voters miss the reasons why Biden would make such an utterance. The only response to a carbon tax is pitchforks, because they don't even understand what a market failure is. The only response to transgender protection is pitchforks, because they don't even know what a social construct is. STEM graduates don't know what they don't know, and they label their blind spots as negative externalities out of a combination of supreme arrogance (primarily), ignorance and confusion.

Policy evaluation isn't really the main point. The antidote to populism is the point.

> demonizing and defunding the police.

The topic of police demonstrates my point. It's only people from a humanities background that showed an interest in critiquing the police, and they were the ones running the studies on policing going back decades. The STEM folks had zero interest. They'd rather ignore the situation rather than study and address it. That's why society can't function with just STEM graduates. They don't know what they don't know.

> But the point is that there is no agreement that they are a public good.

I understand that fascists and nationalists and right-wingers are against humanities education because it provides an antidote to their toxic ideology. And that's about 30% of the population against it by default. Argumentum ad populum. That doesn't detract from the correctness of what I'm saying.
If that is the case that means that investors cannot see themselves competing with established players in the market. That would be an indication that the current market dominators should be broken up, not that they should be allowed to acquire more companies.
> An other thing is java's lack of tuples. All the time I'm reaching for some kind of ad-hoc grouping/touple but have to resort to using something from Apache or Spring or (perhaps abusing) Map.Entry<K,V>

Record types does make that a lot easier. They aren't quite as ad-hoc as in other languages, but this:

record Foo(int a, String b) {}

is a lot less to type than

static final class Foo {
private final int a;
private final String b;
public final Foo(int a, String b) {
this.a = a;
this.b = b;
}
public int a() {
return a;
}
public String b() {
return b;
}
public int hashCode() {
return Objects.hashCode(a, b);
}
public boolean equals(Object o) {
if (o == null) return false;
if (o == this) return true;
if (o instanceof Foo f) {
return a == f.a && Objects.equals(b, f.b);
}
return false;
}
public String toString() {
return getClass().getSimpleName() + "[ a = " + a + ", " + "b = " + b + "]";
}
}

That disappears when forgiven, exactly.
Couldn’t recyclability and repairability be mutually independent, though? It sounds possible to me that a product that is not highly repairable could still be highly recyclable just because its shattered parts can still be reprocessed into new products.

What about teachers? Should they not go to college because they don't get paid well? Or journalists? Should everyone who can't do math well just go a be a business major? Should they not go and study to start a career in their field that they are good and passionate about? If we are looking at value, we need to look at how much value we put on these other areas as well, where you can get a decent job but still not make enough to continue forward.

On the last part, we as an industry need to be a bit more introspective. How many CS programs produce someone who is a mediocre task follower?
I'm trying to square this with the info on the Wikipedia page. Is this just "The Madoff Recovery Initiative reported $14.418 billion in total recoveries and settlement agreementse" divided by "of which $17.3 billion was actually invested by customers?" If so that's even better at north of 83%.

Did he expect Ikea like instruction manual to repair an advanced consumer electronic gadgets? That kit is clearly meant for professional (or at the very least hobbyists) repairers who clearly have experience, and know what they are doing.

To be fair he does call out Apple's recommendation and that this repair kit is better used by experts. I also feel that faced with increased regulation and public scrutiny Apple threw the entire kitchen sink as a cruel joke. I mean that 75pound repair equipment requiring $1200 hold on a card should is a big signal to retail users "do not even dream of attempting repair"

Hmm, perhaps. But the GTA leak had a bunch of debug overlays and developer tools on the screen. It was very clearly not a finished product. A workprint for a movie doesn't generally have the same types of visual clues to indicate what a viewer is looking at. So I'm not sure that a movie workprint is the right comparison here.
Objectively the limits have always been players memory.

Sure, computer analysis has marginally changed how some openings are viewed and sure you can now get an engine evaluation of all the variations of some obscure line in a matter of seconds but novelties remain rare at the top level. Stockfisch is extremely strong because it can play near perfect positional play and can establish micro-advantage through deep calculation not because it fundamentally changed how chess theory is viewed.

AlphaZero might be the sole exception to my point. It did indeed show that modern chess was neglecting some strategical concept but to be honest it was more a rehabilitation of old ideas than a pure novelty.
I suppose nobody would argue that, but in practice it happens all the time, because the people who benefit from the policy aren't directly paying for the costs of those negative net social effects.

Sort of. You can still buy replacement parts from Apple as part of the repair program. This would, in theory, make repairing the iPhone 14 a lot easier than it has been in the past.

No, this still doesn't mean you can go get the cheapest replacement option you can on Alibaba but the repair is STILL easier, even if you still have to buy from Apple. For certain replacement parts I can see this being important, like anything involved in Face ID or Touch ID.

Credit where credit is due, let's hope it continues in the right direction.
And test the crap out of it by just running trains empty at night when they are not running anyways!
It was definitely Apple from my perspective. We had this amazing training site built in flash. I’m taking full on animated storylines, professional voice talent, everything. Our animation teams were releasing new content every three months with new product seasonal launches. We won lots of awards. Then… Apple launched the iPad. All of our retail partners announced they were going to adopt the iPad to train sales associates. And the iPad doesn’t run flash. Well… crap. We laid off the animation teams and told the voice talent there would be no more work. All of the content switched to plain plain html - text and static images. So boring. We saw massive drop in usage, especially in Asia where they lived the animated stories (the flash animations were translated into 40 languages). It has been 10+ years now and the site is around, but it is still boring plain text and static images. Flash had problems, but it was also something really special that has not been replicated since Apple killed it.
