The only similarity between these two UX scenarios is that they involve encrypted network protocols. From a user standpoint there's no similarities.

Firstly, the messaging decision is presented to the user before an action (send SMS/Signal). It's capable of blocking and takes place as part of an active use flow where the user is trying to complete a task. With browsers, the differentiation in UI is displayed after a user action. It doesn't block and the user doesn't require interaction to achieve any goal. Why on earth should they pay any attention to it?

Secondly, the UX for messaging is an equivalent paths binary decision: you're asking people to choose A or B. There isn't an inherent default so a user doesn't start out with a bias toward one or the other. They can easily be required to read to proceed.

With browsers it's a yes/no binary decision: the default (yes) is insecure (for an insecure website). It requires no action from the user. The secure option (no, leave) asks the user to do something. It's a choice between inaction (insecure) or action (secure). That's heavily stacked.

Lastly, even the context surrounding the apps themselves is incomparably different. One is a security upgrade of an application everyone's been using for decades (often unknowingly; "the icon for the internet"). The other is an app people consciously download and install explicitly for security reasons (regardless of whether they understand those security reasons it's at least the motivating factor).
In the second instance, you are controlling the where and how of your keys being backed up. If you are smart you will have backed up your keys to multiple locations, for disaster recovery. One of the fundamentals of privacy is having control of your data, which the first option does not provide.
I listen to a few ADHD podcasts and one of them has the most annoying loud music in the background during commercials as if they're just asking you to skip. It's even more grating if you listen at 3x speed.
Apple, on the other hand, has terrible problems with working with others that google does not.

Apple will happily tell you that if you want grandma to have a whatever color text bubble, you should buy her an iPhone, to name a recent example, rather than adopt the standard everyone else is using. I bought a Macbook last holiday season and couldn't even set it up until my wife set up her iPhone on my account to activate the laptop. I bought my wife a iWatch last week and briefly thought of getting myself one but you can't use it without an iPhone (they have a "kids" feature where a parent can activate it but it basically has no smarts at that point AFAIK).

So, for making an authentication standard, I'd trust Google over Apple.
It would be much harder to achieve this with GHC since the package manager is far from deterministic.
>> It still does.

Out of curiosity (honestly), how does it?
No idea, but this was an interesting podcast episode. I recall they do mention at some point about how ADHD in general is physically detectable by doing brain scans and seeing what areas light up?

Oh, to be fair, NLP proposed the meta model, which was based on how Virginia Satir would solve people's problems by just getting them to be more specific, in a skilful way. This would highlight how our thinking can change how we experience things, through what they called deletions, generalisations and distortions.

CBT does something very similar with how it focuses on making language more realistic and less emotive.

So there are similarities in that sense.
Uh no, do not put 50,000 volts through 12 AWG wire.
If the employees wanted Apple to deal directly with them, they would not have unionized.

They unionized.

Now there is an intermediary between them and the company.

This works both ways. They are now bound to work with their union to address any grievances, and the company is likewise bound.

So they are getting exactly what they wanted by unionizing, but likely few if any of them have had any direct experience with what having a union means.

Google computers also become a victim of outer space "enemies"

FTA(https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/12/10/the-friendship...)

On Sanjay’s monitor, a thick column of 1s and 0s appeared, each row representing an indexed word. Sanjay pointed: a digit that should have been a 0 was a 1. When Jeff and Sanjay put all the missorted words together, they saw a pattern—the same sort of glitch in every word. Their machines’ memory chips had somehow been corrupted.

Sanjay looked at Jeff. For months, Google had been experiencing an increasing number of hardware failures. The problem was that, as Google grew, its computing infrastructure also expanded. Computer hardware rarely failed, until you had enough of it—then it failed all the time. Wires wore down, hard drives fell apart, motherboards overheated. Many machines never worked in the first place; some would unaccountably grow slower. Strange environmental factors came into play. When a supernova explodes, the blast wave creates high-energy particles that scatter in every direction; scientists believe there is a minute chance that one of the errant particles, known as a cosmic ray, can hit a computer chip on Earth, flipping a 0 to a 1. The world’s most robust computer systems, at nasa, financial firms, and the like, used special hardware that could tolerate single bit-flips. But Google, which was still operating like a startup, bought cheaper computers that lacked that feature. The company had reached an inflection point. Its computing cluster had grown so big that even unlikely hardware failures were inevitable.
> Too Many Songs, Not Enough Hits:

As MTV said some 20 years ago: once is not enough, recycle. A lot of the "new" hits are recycled songs. This will get worse with record labels (sic) buying song rights from artists. The quality of music has declined considerably.
I don't understand Apple's take here. Embrace the unions so that you can shape them. Happy workers are more productive workers. Hippie Steve would be pro-union me thinks.
You’re right; then again, my money’s on “ai photo” becoming common enough to acquire meaning on its own. We already have a glow-worm (not a worm), funny bone (not a bone), Baby Yoda (not the Yoda), and many more.
no, the point is maybe the union wants a 9% raise. if you put new desks in you now pay a 9% raise and new desks. if you keep it for bargaining then maybe you pay an 8% raise and include some other benefits like new desks.
If someone is going to eat your current business, it's better if it is you. Fear of cannibalization is basically, "our customers will find out we have an even better product for them than the one they are currently buying from us." It's a good thing for your customers, and it's good for the long-term competitiveness of your company.
Is it goofballs or is it microdosing acid? I'm not sure what the lurid tech tabloid tale of the week is.
As far as I can tell, none of the unions were asking for more educational benefits.
Most sites and platforms use HOTP/TOTP (RFC 4226/RFC 6238) for 2FA, use an authenticator app of your choice.

> the retirement funds managed by someone who should be held responsible for not diversifying?

fund managers don't have "personal" or "corporate" assets that are anywhere near the scale of the (retirement) funds they manage; being held responsible for mismanagement would not lead to a source of capital to replace that which had been lost through mismanagement.

All investment has risk.
Not all plastics are the same.

Aren't the majority of plastic drink bottles made from PET, which has high recyclability?

I agree that many plastic waste products should be burried.
No. While I have tried to counter these group think posts you talk about, I only find them interesting because I think it is human nature to do it. I know I do it all the time.
This is going to become the norm for a while - many of these massive tech companies have a lot of dead weight, and these current conditions allow for the shedding of such weight. It will be painful, and not great for many - but at the end of the day we should emerge a more agile, stable, and innovative society. At least that is the hope. The age of exuberance is gone, time to put our heads together, and work hard again.
When I want a game where a plumber gets warped into a mushroom kingdom and fights turtles by jumping on them, I want realism, dammit!
You give them an inch, they'd take a mile.
The proposal was unstable on both sides in fact. Jobs didn't fully appreciate the importance of power efficiency at the time - an internal team scrambled to demonstrate why Intel would have been a non-starter due to power budget. There were also ecosystem issues, since gearing up for an embedded device at that time mostly meant choosing ARM architecture for that complexity tier they were engineering.

So a deal based on any price wasn't a realistic avenue for iPhone. The fact that Intel was actually considered was itself a radical move on behalf of Steve (absent the technical obstacles that emerged later).
perhaps not engaging in popular culture at all makes you oblivious to said treatment. after all, you have no reference.
Usually they would do that, cut to commercials, and then show the full thing in slow motion. Irritating, but not quite the same.

> A passkey on a phone can also be used to sign in on a nearby device. For example, an Android user can now sign in to a passkey-enabled website using Safari on a Mac. Similarly, passkey support in Chrome means that a Chrome user, for example on Windows, can do the same using a passkey stored on their iOS device.

> Since passkeys are built on industry standards, this works across different platforms and browsers - including Windows, macOS and iOS, and ChromeOS, with a uniform user experience.

I see no mention of Linux in these examples, which tells me that users having access to their keys is not a primary concern for these implementations?
Something to weigh in is their stock is lower now than it was in 2016 by about 15% so it wouldn't be all that surprising if their layoff number was significantly higher than the 2016 number.
The ownership side is in a union whether employees are or not, with their own dollar-weighted democracy, legalized collusion between owners (say two restaraunts agree with each other to lower wages, that's illegal; say they both merge and become shareholders: a coordinated wage decrease across both restaraunts with the same two owners involved is now considered done by one entity).
The scary realization I had recently, is that compared to most other furniture that requires assembly, IKEA is quite easy. Also, I don't understand why hex bits for drills are not a thing.

My new measure of "wealthy" also switched to buying furniture that doesn't need to be assembled, or the assembly is included in the delivery.
Undiagnosed and untreated adults with ADHD develop higher than normal rates of mental illness like anxiety and depression, higher rates of substance abuse and addiction, and often have difficulty maintaining personal relationships, careers, even basic personal responsibilities. Whatever the physiological reason, failing to diagnose and treat ADHD has a detrimental effect for many of us.

I was diagnosed a few years ago, after a fairly severe mental health crisis with crippling anxiety and nearly drinking myself to death. Since diagnosis and beginning treatment with stimulants, I’ve been able to put my life back together. My life is stable, I’m happier than I ever was even before my mental health tanked, and my anxiety is manageable enough I seldom take notice of it.

I don’t like the side effects of stimulants, particularly the toll they've taken on my already poor dental health (for folks who don’t know, “meth mouth” can be a thing even with prescription amphetamines taken as prescribed, not just from smoking). But I have no doubt in my mind that whatever side effects I’ve experienced or may, it’s better by far than what I’d have experienced without meds.

> It would be cool if we could solve the hardest part of interacting with others remotely, which is the lost fidelity. That's an interesting and hard problem that we haven't yet totally solved.

Have you ever considered that’s the wrong problem to solve? It reeks of the “how do we breed a faster horse” type of “innovation” rather than “how do we replace the horse”.

Meta is focusing on replicating in-person meetings which are one of the worst facets of business. They are slow, inefficient, lossy, and require real time interaction to be effective.

It’s not a criticism of VR. It’s a criticism of bringing back one of the dumbest aspects of in-office interactions. Perhaps the next feature they can tackle is shared bathrooms where you listen to your coworkers have diarrhea or strain to pass turds that tear their hemorrhoids.
Fair. And self-hosting an instance in the cloud is probably comparable in cost.
Getting meds at the pharmacy (even after getting a prescription) can be a pain. I’ve run into issues where I’ll have a prescription, but the pharmacy that it’s sent to is out of stock. But pharmacy’s aren’t allowed to disclose stock of controlled substances over the phone, so I have to call my Dr to ask them to transfer the prescription to a different pharmacy, hoping that it’s not out of stock. If it is, I have to do that all over again. It’s annoying to say the least.

Dragsters definitely measure their acceleration for bragging rights, it's usually a 0-100mph metric though. And of course bragging rights mean nothing if your car doesn't win the actual race. Top-Fuel dragsters race only 1000ft because they're so insanely fast it's dangerous to let them go farther and build up even more speed.
Yeah, I have.

Andersen EV Charger Company Goes into Administration
Wonder what happens with the fact it’s a smart charger so requires the cloud to operate?
Enjoyed this. The underlying formalism seems based (I think?) on concurrent, independently-executing processes that are stimulated by messages. That has some similarities with the Actor model [0], albeit Actors support concurrent, intra-process message handling whereas this seems sequential at the individual process level. So maybe more like Communicating Sequential Processes [1].

For anyone more knowledgable on the topic: is that right? And is that model common across other proof systems like TLA?

Second (bonus) question: why separate messages from user input?

Thanks.

Slack also lets users easily make a group chat. In my experience, backed up by [1], Discord requires you to "Friend" members of the group chat before it lets you create the chat (requiring the user to send out a friend request, then wait for an acceptance, before starting the chat).

You could argue that group conversations are best suited for new channels, but I've personally had a lot of value from quick group chats in my experience.

So we are building www.livegenie.co to supercharge intercom or any other live chat software.

Livegenie will help you:

Track your website visitors and set up an alert criteria based on their behaviour (so let's say you want to track leads coming from your email compaign and spending more than 2 minutes on your pricing page)

Proactively video call your visitors for live demo straight on your website and cobrowse with them for an ultimate user experience.

On the other hand, you can also embed the live video chat widget on your software so you can provide live video support for your free users and convert them to paying customers.

Our MVP will be launched in 2 weeks for FREE so don't hesitate to join our waitlist and be among our beta testers!

Your feedback will be highly appreciated.
I really like the system he uses to access video RAM which is simple, decouples the video from the main RAM (which is a serious weakness of real 8-bit machines because it hurts non-video performance directly as well as limiting the clock speed) but is also high performance (if you are blasting out a block of data to the video you can just blast out the bytes to a memory mapped location and the address pointer counts up automatically.)
My capital portfolio is down by tens of thousands of dollars this year. Labor might have to forego future pay, but it’s pretty uncommon for an employer to claw back 1/3rd of your cash salary after they’ve paid it.

Yes. GitHub, GitLab, and Discord are on our roadmap. Twitter is also -- but more as a way to claim a Twitter handle.

The main benefit of being in a union - IMO - seems that you can't be fired or "cancelled" for expressing your political opinion on Twitter.

The next best seems to be severance (more if you've been with the company longer).

I think any company can implement these unilaterally.
He most certainly wouldn't:

Silence is like a less polished version of Signal. The only important feature I really think it's lacking is a search function. You can export your texts to an XML file though, so to find something from a long time ago I just export to a file and use grep to search through that.
I think Visual Studio code has great influence on it but after trying it, I think VS code can also learn few things about interface from it. Really neat.

Probably JetBrains thought to leverage tons of in house Java code otherwise I think Rust + Skia or similar would have been a great option with almost no run time requirements. Rust gurus can say better but I have seen pretty impressive cross platform apps in Rust such as alacritty and warp.
Can someone with ADHD give an example of a website that is well organized and architected that they find helpful as a counterexample to this site? I'm curious as someone parenting someone with ADHD what that would look like.
As opposed to the entrenched folks, power games, and politics that exist currently? Those don’t appear because a union is formed, you just have less of a say at the bargaining table without one

Edit:removed an extra “don’t”
If a hospital is saturated then by definition no more people can further enter the hospital.

There's a physical limit to how many people can fit inside a hospital, and that limit is the saturation point, at least in my definition.

It's possible that a mildly sick patient became a moderately sick patient because they received some disease while within the premises that they otherwise wouldn't have.

And in an extreme scenario, hospitals could possibly kick out moderately sick patients to accommodate even more severely sick patients, which could cause the former to spread diseases to otherwise healthy people. But this seems highly likely.
Exactly. Unions fundamentally exist in order to prevent owners and investors from harvesting all the profits (and from pushing off the consequences of losses to the workers alone). If companies were equally owned and operated by their workers, unions wouldn't have a purpose for existing.
What goes wrong?
If Russia ('s elite led by Putin) were willing to agree to that, they would be willing to agree to much else that they have not agreed to.
I pretty much only use the signal protocol to chat with my husband, who I convinced to install the app because I could help with any problems that arose. I'm not going to use one app to communicate with just him and another to communicate with everyone else, nor is he.

The result of this change is that we will stop using signal all together. They've accomplished the exact thing they said they want to avoid.
