When I was perusing Robert Crumb I assumed he was part of a movement called "Underground Comics". It was about breaking the norms of what Disney would publish. The "normal" in those days was Nixon and Vietnam war. Pot-smoking was a terrible unpatriotic crime.

There wasn't really much other comics for adults. I don't mean sexually explicit but just something serious which wouldn't appeal to kids. But there was some sex which was refreshing. Still it was always (?) not about being pornographic but being thought-provoking, questioning the sexual mores of the post-war puritan America. Even questioning the misogynic world-view I would say. Crumb put a spotlight on it, not promote it.

If from the comments here, or wherever is referring me to an article, I get the impression that it will be interesting/useful to me, I'll maybe go look, if not then I won't. Or sometimes the discussion the link starts is enough such that I get useful references of things to look at in other places instead (or just learn what I might want to from the discussion directly). Heck, sometimes just the subject is enough to start searching for other references.

A lot of the sentiment in this thread makes it clear that Social Media (Google/FB/TikTok) is a tool capable of exerting power, a weapon.

The great firewall of china prevents American "weapons" from running rampant on Chinese citizens. Meanwhile America has no digital border, so Chinese weapons are able to run rampant on us. If you ask just about anyone "Is it ok for China to store bombs in our cities, while they prevent us from putting bombs in theirs" the answer is obvious.

Despite this America has chosen a "one internet" strategy to prevent the balkanization of the internet and generally has an anti-protectionism strategy.

The far more interesting question is "despite the obvious national security risk posed by TikTok, why might it be preferable to not block it?"

Wow. I never noticed that before. Spiral wings.
I once spoke with an ex-Macromedia employee who told me that a full Flash-to-App tool had been developed for the launch of custom apps on iPhone ... and that Apple had internally committed to blocking any app developed in Flash, so the tool was never released.
That is true. I wonder what the payment structure is for Apple Authorized Service Providers or Apple Authorized Resellers. The economics definitely change when it comes to software. Consider a hypothetical iOS version of F-Droid: if such a third party store doesn't charge developers to host their apps, what kind of dues do they owe upstream? Apple would still claim that F-iOS is benefiting from the app distribution APIs and security features they're providing, not to mention updates to iOS itself.
The project is awesome. These comments (include mine) need correction.
The idea is risk reduction, not removal.

An OS is backed by thousands of developers, and usually billions of dollars. Theres negligible risk that the momentum stops.

If that OSS library, that is fundamental to your business, has three developers, then maybe you do have a problem.
Only 6 pull ups? I find that a bit humorous compared to some of the other requirements
If you can't figure it out, memoize the results in a table and interpolate.
You may be right.

My rebuttal is that Apple can only make system API changes through releasing new iOS versions and there have been many cases where they make an API change to kill competition.

Does YouTube music have the same system-wide integration that Apple Music does? No. Look at Dropbox even: Some versions ago Apple took away iOS app’s ability to upload in the background while Apple’s Photos app is free to do it 24/7. A user who takes a lot of photos and likes to store them in the cloud is either an iCloud user where everything works automatically, or a non-iCloud user where files are stalled until the app is on-screen for however long it takes to transfer them.

Apologies for getting ranty there. It’s hard to watch big tech these days, especially as someone who sees how much has been taken from us already.
That's kinda what they tried with Labs etc.

An interesting approach to vendor-independent attestation was outlined in [1]. Basically the bitstream is fed into a physical unclonable function (PUF) which is used to derive a key to decrypt the rest of the bitstream. For attestation, one could simply store the secret part of an asymmetric key in the encrypted bitstream (for challenge-response).

fascinating read. from what I've gathered its a story about a three-hundred fifty billion dollar international company that employs child labor and once had to install suicide nets on their factory buildings. the story indicates they've also decided the counterintelligence level data they collect from their walled garden of proprietary-only apps is entirely insufficient to thwart oncemore being pressed to acquiesce to a living wage. ultimately theyve chosen a subversion campaign where they themselves pretend to be small developers and in doing so, bankroll what I imagine to be an otherwise successful campaign of suppression and profiteering.

EDIT: oof, capitalism strikes again. i assume the 'I work for apple' and 'well the devs just didn't form their own lobby' crowd has an opinion about their faceless godking. if devs are hackers and hn is devs, I don't understand why there's any defense of this company at all. Lisa needs braces. you deserve to be compensated for your hard work.
FWIW, Apple didn't actually address any of the problems their real critics (eg. third-party repair shops) espoused. The redesign in the linked article will only benefit Apple until they walk-back their asinine hardware-DRM (and ostensibly, their grip on OEM components).
That's not necessarily how I feel, but I think it's a possible explanation for the way Magnus feels.

I personally like the metaphor (but then again I work on a major package manager).

I like to think of it this way...

- from the internet

- written by unknown individuals

- that we haven't read

- which we execute

- with full permissions

- on our trusted devices

- where we keep our most important data

Given a supply chain attack can happen at many of those steps above, but is also extended to source code, build systems, and production services, it's a great metaphor for visualizing the complex "software supply chain".

> a billion+ humans as inept drones under the iron grip of a tyrant

Drones, no, but it's very instructive to look at what the elites of China do. Many who achieve success in China spend significant resources to have a foot out the door, because they know that success is fleeting, depending on remaining in favor of the CCP. Even Xi Jinping's daughter went to school in the US.

If the CCP is actually so benign and China is well run and a good place to be, why does that happen?
I think all the security vulnerabilities that came out also contributed to its decline.

I don't find that to be a very convincing argument. His story could have become more consistent because he stopped lying, or it could have become more consistent because he had more practice telling his lie. Lying is hard at first, but once you've gone through a few takes and once you have the advice of a lawyer to keep you from saying anything stupid, it becomes much easier to tell a coherent story.

i'll do my best

1. define the base circle (orange)

2. define the sub circle (pink)

3. compute the range of the intersection circle's radius (blue)

4. compute the loop points (yellow)

4A. compute intersection circle along range defined in 3

4B. compute the intersection angle between base and intersection circles relative to the center of the intersection/sub circle (law of cosines)

4C. compute the intersection point with intersection angle (green on blue & orange)

4D. compute sub point with intersection angle (green on pink)

4E. compute the loop point with the x component from intersection point (4C) and the y component from sub point (4D)

5. compute the trace point at trace angle (white)

5A. trace the already computed loop points searching for the the two points where the trace angle fits between

5B. compute the intersection between the line composed of the two matching loop points and the trace line originating at the sub circle's center with an angle of the trace angle

Anyone who has taken a five-minute look at the real estate market in any major US city can see those market distortions plain as day.
I've found out that you really need to gut that thing like a fish before trying to pull on those :-) Unless you take out vibrator etc from the bottom you almost always break atleast one off.

Yeah, IPA and thin plastic shim card. These are often sold in lockpicking shops for door shimming - costs few bucks. Or directly from iFixit site (/products/plastic-cards). Just snip it in half so it is not as wide (careful not to leave sharp corner that coud tear up that battery!). Then slip it under the battery and use it to guide few drops of IPA under there. Worked for me every time with almost no hassle.

Just be careful because IPA is of course flammable. If you would puncture the battery or make it spark, you could end up having quite a bad day. But that probably applies for the monofilament-under-the-battery approach too.
I didn't see a paywall on this one. In any case, thank you.

Which is another interesting detail of artificial intelligence: this attribution is basically the Mandela Effect.

Groucho Marx SHOULD have written that joke. It's good, the punch word is at the end, it's the kind of logic-mocking braintwist Groucho was exceptional at making, and yet he didn't write it. So we ascribe it to him anyway, because that's who SHOULD have written it. Thus is intelligence: we try to make things make sense, and we try to relate things to the big areas of 'sense' we already have in our minds. We have a space for Groucho and for humor, but who's Oettinger and where can we watch his comedy routines? What, he doesn't do comedy routines? And so, sense beats reality…
The actual critics are mostly mad at the way Apple prevents them from using legal donor boards to make less-wasteful repairs. Apple heard this, and their response is an 80-lb rent-able flight-case of random equipment.

Admittedly, it made for some great free PR on YouTube. As for addressing the concerns of the right-to-repair community... they would have been better off just uploading board schematics for the M1 Air and calling it a day. Most repair shops would probably feel less offended if they did.
It all looks so pathetic once you put some distance to it.

None of it matters. That’s why there’s so much drama.

Yes, but they don't have to use genuine Apple parts or verify any of it through Apple's services. With Apple's repairs, they disassemble the devices and re-use the parts for service. With these third parties, they don't have to use parts that are at parity with the originals.
Yes you have to confront people or leave, that's insane right? /s
"Han Unification" - in Unicode many Japanese characters are represented as Chinese characters that look different (and subjectively ugly). The Unicode consortium's answer is that you're supposed to use a different font or something when displaying Japanese, which is pretty unsatisfying (e.g. if you want to have a block of text that contains both Japanese and Chinese, you can't represent that as just a Unicode string, it has to be some kind of rope of segments with their own fonts, at which point frankly you might as well just go back to bytes-with-encoding which at least breaks very clearly and visibly if you get it wrong).
Can you statistically evaluate such a thing? Its all black swan.
Oh course, but lawyers do train and practice and pay attention. That's their main job.
I agree, but interest rates have to return to a natural level (where risk is priced correctly), and thus reset asset prices (to better reflect their true returns).
> Of course, trying to regulate crypto will bring everyone against (individual) privacy and freedom out in opposition, and forcing companies to not tie functionality to their private keys / force them to make public those keys would also make you an enemy of the "security" industry.

This seems easy to solve. Just mandate that the end-user/purchaser of the hardware should have the same level of control over the code execution as the manufacturer does after the sale. Whatever the manufacturer can do to your own unit after it's in your posession, you should be able to do as well.

No need to get into restricting crypto. After the aforementioned regulations are passed, it will be up to the companies to figure out how to implement them.

Surely those responses would be under such intense scrutiny, from several different angles, to say that it's simply nonsense being spun to its maximum.
Similar to my strategy. Write the code as if I had all these magic functions that did steps:

def write_report():
db = connect_to_database()
data = get_data(db)
summary = summarise_data(data)
save_report(summary)

After this, do the same for each of these functions.
Depends on what the data shows. For instance, nobody ever wants to talk about why 95% of those killed in police shootings are males. It's far more disproportionate than any of the race based numbers that make headlines daily, and yet..nothing.

This seems to indicate the data will always and only be used to tell a preferred narrative.

> Processes are to blame, not people

Well maybe the people that enforced those processes, wouldn't you think?
I had the same question!

The mechanism of higher rates reducing inflation isn't clear to me.

Does it go down because people with cash choose to park it and earn interest instead of buying goods and services? Or does it go down because higher interest rates make the cost of doing business more expensive which leads to reduction in overall business activity?

If it's by reducing business activity, then seems like the "breaking point" can be at any arbitrary interest rate for a given country in a given year.

Also, if inflation is caused by the lack of supply (like the supply chain issues / chip shortage and such), then I think reducing business activity will only exacerbate the problem by reducing the supply further (and I don't hear anyone explore this angle).
A lot of the replies to this post read like astroturfing. Some people are shameless in their promotion, aren't they?
I think that a lot of people should be asking themselves about the state of vulns and other bugs in linux. In fact, I'd call the state of correctness of the linux kernel and surrounding systems to be something resembling an industry emergency. It shouldn't be possible for bugs to regress in the kernel, but they do! A lot of very ordinary best practices aren't actually followed in the kernel world.

Based on current knowledge, a slight gauge widening on straight track and
a slight gauge tightening on tight curves might actually be more beneficial –
while trains don't have differentials, they normally (BART and some streetcar
systems excepted) use conical wheels

Right, BART got the track gauge wrong when they were using flat wheels. Instead of self-centering the wheels got dragged down the track. This went on for forty-odd years which is how BART earned its reputation for being so damn noisy.
