I too see this inconsistent behaviour. It looks like Apple implemented two strategies: an "old" one which respects the traditional clipboard, and a "new" one which uses small overlay panes in some notional sweetspot and gives you a 3 second (or thereabouts) window of time to drag-and-drop the screenshot.

I don't think they workshopped how they play together, or how a user controls when which one is invoked or what desktop switching to find another context to "paste" into.

Grrrr. No solution, just validating your perception.
Eh... That's why it's important to speak up and teach where you can. You never know who might learn something, and you may find yourself learning something in return.

I like to segment my workflows, so I keep a tablet for certain things.

Industrial countries have to cut back on emissions while also deploying improved energy technologies to developing nations. I don't see why the article concludes with not cutting back emissions in more developed nations because developed nations must absolutely become more efficient energy utilizers. American citizens can not continue their business as usual of producing 10x as much CO2 as everyone else.
Please don't cross into personal attack in HN comments, and please don't post flamebait. We've had to ask you this more than once before.

Either of the two visons of this work could be both true and useful. If it's a straight port of the OSX desktop experience then it's a flow product towards the "touch enabled mac" we've maybe asked for. If it's a compatible dock/bar interface for UX then it's a modality of use we might relate to.

The Great Forgetting, yet again.

Few things have been proven as resoundingly as "price controls don't work", or more accurately "are very net negative".

This gets forgotten every time someone really wants them to work.

This applies to rent control as much as any other price.

When you want the price of something to be lower, subsidising demand increases prices rather than lowering them.

Suppliers and owners will not simply accept lower prices, even if you really wish they did.

The Great Forgetting - price controls don't work.
Why did you choose to decrement n twice on each iteration? What happens when n is odd vs even now?

I mean...I've been gainfully employed the entire time but am still here :) I was on HN long before I registered this username - in fact, I only registered this user after I noticed the quality of comments degrading (hence the name).

Maybe I'm different than other earlier people who were drawn here - I'm just interested in tech and never really thought of doing the startup route. I've made a few millions of dollars in total comp in that time, but I do wonder where I would be if I took a step out of my comfortable FANG-type job 15 years ago.
By definition when you have constraints on the natural levers of supply and demand in the form of price controls, markets aren’t going to act rationally.
It was unethical (and dangerous) the moment they called `autopilot`
It doesn't make sense, until the government tries to set the price.

Then it does.
I would imagine not everyone on HN knows that Microsoft saved Apple from going bankrupt in 1997 [0].

Jobs made a deal with Gates for a $150MM investment that would effectively save Apple. Of course, both companies got something out of it. Nobody gives you that kind of money for free.

It a great business lesson. Your competitor doesn't have to lose for you to win.

It is also important to remain humble. You never know when you'll need help. I am going through an interesting moment right now while starting a new tech business.

While I have funded 100% of it myself so far, my best customer is someone who was in direct and intense competition with my other business 15 years ago. We are now talking about him coming-in as an investor and taking-over CEO responsibilities so I can focus on technology. Had we been nasty to each other over a decade ago, these conversations would have been impossible today.

Keep in mind that the life expectancy for a 70 year old is often a bigger number than the average life expectancy.

For example in the US a male has a life expectancy of 76.22 (https://www.ssa.gov/oact/STATS/table4c6.html), but a 70 year old male has a life expectancy of 84.59 years.

But that doesn't take away from your main point about people wanting to avoid that situation.

If there's a moderate reward for cheating and a high reward for cooperating, always trust wins out. In my eyes, that's the closest analogy to society. Generally, in the long term cooperation is more rewarding than mutiny.
Recently I randomly came across the book Dear Prof Dyson (https://www.amazon.com/Dear-Professor-Dyson-Correspondence-U...) in Half Price Books. I had loved Dyson’s literary-scientific style from Disturbing the Universe so bought this one, too. His patience in answering letters from undergrads on topics ranging from physics to philosophy is amazing, what a learned man! It seems like having a literary bent was more common among scientists in older times compared to now.

I don't program C or Go. I ran the logic and it works; I verified by running a modified version of this method on my computer.

func below(n int) {
for n--; n >= 0; n-- {
fmt.Println(n)
}
}

I modified the type so I could punch in some sane integer, like 4. And this works.

Am I to assume that the bug is actually a type issue? Something to do with unsigned integers?

Wait. Oh. Ok. I get it. It does have to do with the type signature.
Agreed, but most of my own reluctance to engage comes not from the generally low intellectual level of the commentary but from the pervasive character assassination that accompanies it.

Some of this is a result of importing the culture-war mentality that destroyed Twitter, but some of it is not; see how often the word "disingenuous" gets posted, generally as an assertion that the parent commenter must be a liar because they couldn't possibly be so stupid as to believe what they wrote. That's pure native HN viciousness, not a Twitter import.
The latter was already increasing, and the former is hard to measure and self-reported only.

I expect more and more "normal/ongoing things" will be attributed to covid as time goes on.

I imagine the massive lifestyle and economic disruption would add to these problems entirely independent of infection, for instance.
the difference in price reflects the extra time (and background experience) it takes to build a given thing as a native app instead of an electron app. not saying paw is especially good though
I agree, time to strip them of the assets then with 0 compensation.
Apple generally doesn't get in the way when users want to boot something other than macOS on their Macs, and this has been true for decades. In the late 90s there were distros of Linux for PowerPC Macs (Yellow Dog mainly) and BeOS could run on several models of PPC Macs. And of course, Intel Macs had Boot Camp which originally mainly just a BIOS/CSM compatibility layer that sat on top of Apple's EFI implementation to allow OSes that didn't support EFI or supported it badly (at that point, mainly Windows) to boot on them.

The one hitch in that was the brief period where Macs used a chopped down A-series SoC in place of traditional x86 motherboard components (T1/T2 chips), but they provided Windows drivers for those making the difficulties Linux had with them an issue of drivers rather than inability to boot.
I think the point was that both of those are consequences most people are not willing to risk. Corporations like to optimize after all...

Oh, sorry, I didn't paste the right code.

On my machine I used this code:

package main
import "fmt"
func below(n uint64 ) {
for n>0 {
fmt.Println(n-1)
n--
}
}

func main() {
below(10);
below(0);
}

The actual code I put into the bugfix site was:

func below(n uint64, to chan uint64) {
for n>0 {
to <- n-1
n--
}
close(to)
}

but when writing this comment I went back and didn't modify the for loop to be a while.
Pretty much every law has unintended consequences. But people mostly complain about them for laws they personally disagree with.

Before the curtain came down on Holmes, she was heralded as a peer of Musk in the press. Obviously, right now Musk appears successful, so equating them is indeed not valid as you point out. But in my defense, I wasn't equating them, just saying that I anticipate Musk's undoing will be as insane to see. I will agree that Musk has successes point to though whereas Holmes first was nowhere to be seen.
To be honest, I'm just happy I got people in this thread to refer to him as Musk. People who say 'Elon' drive me nuts. Don't get me started on 'Steve' either.

After perusing their website for a while, I could not find anything resembling a cost estimate, or cost figures for the multitude existing homes they feature.

What a terrible thing to advocate.
This is the second time you've posted this on the thread. None of this has anything to do with DNSSEC. This is ISPs hijacking DNS for their customers, which DNSSEC doesn't prevent (it's server-to-server, not endpoint-to-server --- the fact that you can run a server on your bespoke Linux machine isn't relevant to the analysis), and registrar ATO.

Unless Apple Pay works on Android phones, you're asking Walmart to support two incompatible e-pay methods (or not support Android phones). I would suspect Android phones are more common in their customer base than normally, and why would they wish to have two systems to support?
> scalpers might sign up for artist clubs?

Sure, but there are probably limits on the number of tickets a member can buy, and club membership isn't free, so that would cut into scalping profits (ok, I guess it's only $20/yr).

> Also Pearl Jam uses Ticketmaster

Sure, but the band probably gets an allocation of tickets specifically for their fan club, so they don't have to fight with non-member fans to get tickets at regular prices.

Huh? In NYC in the middle of COVID rents had gone down by like 20% in some parts.

What do you mean, rents may only go up? That's not how it works anywhere. It's only true over specific time periods.
Maybe. I’m rocking a 2017 iPad Pro with LTE as my “second” device. After five years the keyboard is getting increasingly flunky - the fabric on the keys are starting to wear off and it just always looks a little dirty. I’m on my second case - as my first one, which was a nice one that holds the Apple Pencil while also working with the keyboard, stated to spontaneously disintegrate. You can still find replacement pieces for these, but it’s getting harder - I couldn’t find the same nice case anymore and the keyboards can take a little while longer to replace. Remote Desktop and Blink mean I can connect to most systems. Although, the keyboard is weird - and the fact that it is missing an escape key and function keys can be really annoying, especially in vim.

But, far and away, the biggest problem is battery life. It’s down to the point where I only get about 5-6 hours on it. I used to get all day and then some. Turning on a VPN makes it drop quickly. Battery replacement on these devices is quite hard.

All that being said, it’s a wonderful device. Especially with LTE. Just open it up and internet everywhere. It’s really game changing if you’ve never had an iPad with it. I just hope the battery makes it another few years.
Eh it's not so bad in the US. Sure the economy isn't doing too good and gas prices are still high, but most people are overall doing alright. If there was a literal disaster, 9mm wouldn't be selling for $0.20

We can't determine if this is a large number or not without knowing the total population - of either rent stabilized apartments, or all apartments available for rent.

A certain amount of empty property should be expected - they do require renovation and repair.

In commercial real-estate, I believe 10% is considered healthy for offices.

It looks like 3% is considered healthy for apartments?

As someone who is renting right now and doesn’t want to own a home currently, where would I live if not for a landlord? Government housing? What in the heck is wrong with someone renting out something that they own?
I'm currently renting an apartment in SF for 25% less than the previous renter paid because I rented it right at the bottom of the pandemic bust.

Rents are subject to supply and demand just like everything else.
Remember, high rents are always one of the following:

A. Evil landlords meet at their secret underground fortress and collectively agree to charge too much for rent

B. Evil rich people / foreigners (pick whichever you find more objectionable) have bought up all the housing and are keeping the units vacant to spite everyone

Supply and demand doesn't apply to housing, of course. If we build more housing that will just drive prices up! Somehow!
Hm, I live one a farm in the Swedish countryside where part the road was paved a number of years ago and I can't say I appreciate the "improvement". Cars speed by faster, it is harder on horses' hooves, frost damage is harder to repair. Since it is too hilly here to skate and the pavement type - oil-drenched gravel - is too coarse for it anyway that argument doesn't hold either. I can bike, ride my motorbike and tractor just as well on the gravel so... where's the upside?

>It is almost certain this drug was synthesized by a Chinese custom synthesis group (the most typical source for these type of substances at scale) and not by Australian clandestine chemists.

Most people don't realize this, but you can order a synthesis of just about any (legal) chemical with enough money. People do it for pharmaceutical or nootropic drugs sometimes in group buys. It's trivial if you have enough money to find some vaguely legal analog of a recreational drug, and order a synthesis of it. 2f-dck is a ketamine analog that I believe is still legal and reported to be very similar in effect, and I'd guess 2f-nendck is somewhat similar to that. Not that I'm suggesting anyone should, there are risks and it's not an easy process. It's just interesting how easily accessible it is if you have the right information.

Commercial property mortgages and valuations are strongly based on rental rates - and until vacancies hit a certain percentage they’re not counted much at all.

There are many layers of bad math in matters related to climate change, electric vehicles and renewable energy. Too many to list.

One of my favorites is the use of averages. This is self-evident to anyone who understands that the value of an average is highly dependent on the underlying distribution. However, most people --and certainly most politicians-- do not understand this at all.

A typical example of this is calculating the additional power demand required in order to support a full transition to EVs. The bad calculation usually starts with a web search to get the average miles a person drives (about 30). That number is then applied to the entire population. A number comes out and Bob's your uncle.

Except, he isn't. And that's nowhere close to a real number. Yet, it this sort of thing is used everywhere. Another one is solar panel output and solar installation power/energy production.

This is so common, it has a name: The Flaw of Averages

https://hbr.org/2002/11/the-flaw-of-averages

The greater point is that bad math is being used everywhere to drive narratives and make decisions that are just as flawed as the math used to justify or sell them to the public.
