Thank you for sharing, I've had similar frustrations since the iPhone 11. The only constant I've been able to compare against is that my keyboard typing has not declined in accuracy.
Yeap. Although Google killed off afl, exercise code with fuzzing too that unit and integration tests didn't catch.
Thanks for the Weird Al video. My kids are also Weird Al fans, but we haven't seen this one yet!!
Even if you have no children, the people you sell your house to may, so a good school district is a thing to keep an eye on.

It’s also shorthand for a bunch of other things that boil down to “things are being managed decently well”.

If you know you’re buying the house they’ll carry you out of to the last 6 feet you’ll own, then you can be much more flexible.
Maybe because the long tenure with an employer went away in the 70's when we started off-shoring everything?

I don't think people want control of their retirement savings, they just want a retirement savings. (And you're lucky if Social Security even covers health insurance costs - forget about covering your property taxes, grocery bill, utilities, etc.)
I didn't say (or at least didn't mean to imply) that any of those were originated at apple, but that they are high volume ongoing contributions to open source from apple and they could do less on them.

I also don't know why you think apple would particularly care if "no one else used clang." Their goal with developing it was clearly also not exactly altruistic but their contribution of it into open source didn't really benefit them much in the short term in any way that isn't true of other major open source work at other FAANG. Never mind swift, which has basically failed to benefit apple much at all from being open sourced. But if clang were closed lots of people would still use it - everyone developing for macs and iOS. That's probably all that matters to the brass.

In the end I agree that apple is much worse than other FAANG. That is, like I said, part of why I left a pretty nice job there after many years of frustration at the pace of change.

But it's hard to pin down a position on all this that applies to all of apple. Some parts are very friendly (compilers), some parts are obligate mildly friendly (core Darwin/xnu and WebKit), some parts are bristling for change, but while change has been slow contributions have been ramping up as processes change (all of services, the growth area of the company). In the 2 years before I left it went from months to approve a minor patch to OSS to more like a week, with certain internal projects having regular unreviewed postback rights to designated high volume OSS projects and official champions of upstream efforts.

Where there seemed to be zero progress at all was personal projects, where apple has a catch-22 process that never progresses while insisting that you can't do it outside that process (regardless of the legality of that assertion).
This is great but I also want kill-a-watt measurement
Ivermectin vs. Placebo on Time to Recovery in Patients with Mild/Moderate Covid
I'm in the same camp as the author in terms of this type of copy, not only having no impact on me wanting to use the product, but also feeling it is condescending and confusing and mildly pushing me away from the product.

But I'm curious if this stuff works overall. I guess it does? People keep doing it.
We also have higher population and it’s literally illegal to build houses like many that are in the older/cheaper parts of town. The sq ft of the “minimal viable house” keeps growing.
It should be noted that the Everett many worlds model is impossible due to the nonlinearity of gravity - different worlds cannot exist independently of each other without interacting gravitationally - you’d get the kind of collapse that Penrose’s theory predicted. Given these experiments, there isn’t any obvious theory that squares the kind of wavefunction collapse we observe with the nonlinearity of gravity.
I still have my Dogcow shirt - managed to nab it from a rare visit to the company store. I finally stopped wearing it when it started to develop holes :(
Ask HN: Help finding good embedded DSP design resources?
I'm working on an LED art project that combines a few realtime signals to inform the visuals, audio and some other inputs. I'm running things on an ESP32 right now and doing an FFT and some other sort of seat-of-the-pants DSP stuff on one core while the other handles bluetooth, LED control, etc. I've got some time to mess around and I'd like to get a broad strokes overview of the embedded DSP field to inform myself on where to explore next. I've got a fair bit of hands on experience but little formal training.

Ultimately the goal is to *make good art* so I'm not really looking for anything specific. In my head I'll get some good papers/textbooks/libraries/articles recommended to me and then I'll spend a few weeks to write toy implementations of whatever seems interesting in C to get a feel for the space.

I'm particularly looking for the nitty-gritty type stuff, cool hacks that save cycles and improve latency, my goal here is visceral reactivity and I'd like to get some more tools in my toolkit that allow me to interpret and combine signals in realtime in interesting ways. Even info on cool math hacks like Carmack's fast inverse square root would be appreciated.

P.S. Also of interest is material on debugging and modelling realtime code.
The way the monthly payments work, they usually charge you what a permanent license would have cost within 6 months anyway.
The loss of that library was sad, but didn't all the books go to the Stanford Apple archive? I also grabbed a book on parsers.

I know some people from ATG found places to stay if they really, really wanted to, but unless you could directly related your work to something on Steve's agenda, you were gone. Kim stayed and worked on voice recognition, Larry Yaeger stayed and worked on InkWell, Jerome stayed and worked on latent semantics analysis for email spam detection, etc.
On Android the Hacker's Keyboard does a respectable job for coding and command line. I use it on those rare occasions I need to use SSH from my Android phone.

It doesn't adapt to the language being written, that's an interesting idea.
Not really true anymore unfortunately, and the system is converging with other large organizations.

For example, to keep compensation in line with market and reduce attrition, there were definitely more people who got promoted to ICT5 last year and the designation has thus been diluted.

Furthermore, candidates coming in from other large companies expect the title/leveling prestige in many cases, and ICT5 is a tough sell while trying to hire a Google L7/8. So Apple does have a fair number of ICT6 from that.

I also think limiting IC layers and keeping the above politics minimal can work - Netflix did that for a long time and was very successful as a company with their approach. Most IC at Netflix were simply titled "senior software engineer", with pay being a wide band dependent on market value. They no longer do that for some reasons, and have adopted the standard large level hierarchy.
The New Responsive – Web Design in a Component-Driven World
Probably the fact that some of the worse financial disasters undergone by city/county governments have been because of pension obligations.

(Sarcasm to be clear, though I think something between a full pension and entirely on the worker is what we need). Defined benefit is too easy to abuse and defined contribution has weaknesses, too.
Every library I’ve been to has braille and audio versions of books. They are almost always produced by third parties that specialize in such things.

It probably makes more sense to have professional third parties handle accessibility than to try to force it upon the industry that decided to add 25MB of JS animations to their non-legally-compliant cookie popups, etc.
Ah yes, I sure do miss YEAR_IDENTIFIER where nothing went wrong.
That oft repeated statement is really a lie except inasmuch as much as all interpretations / theories are intended to be compatible with reality as we observe it (and thus yield equivalent predictions to classical quantum mechanics for everyday quantum experiments).
A lot of trackers work with synthesized sound, even some early trackers were synth-only. Modern ones have improved on this, eg. Sunvox, Buzz and others are mostly defined by their synths and effects, and how well those things integrate with the tracker interface.
> for the 99.9% of people that do not know what DNS is, let alone what a "stub resolver" is, DNSSEC would be more of a hinderance than help

Sorry but I don't follow. The 99.9% of people that do not know what DNS is, don't need to know what DNSSEC is either. It works regardless of whether you know what it is.

All you need is for microsoft/apple to start validating DNS, like you mention below.

> also, it'd receive enormous pushback from governments if microsoft/apple were to start validating DNS, as it would prevent them from blocking sites in the most common way, rewriting DNS queries for illegal sites (for example, in australia, we have blocks on various torrent sites like thepiratebay)

No, because DNSSEC doesn't prevent DNS responses from being blocked, so the governments and ISPs can continue doing that.

DNSSEC validation only prevents responses from being spoofed/forged. The ISP DNS server can still refuse to answer queries if it wants.

DoH is what can prevent DNS queries from being blocked, and DoH has already been implemented in Firefox and Android as far as I know.

Also, DNSSEC and DoH can (and should) be implemented together, they are not mutually exclusive, rather, they complement each other, as DoH by itself doesn't protect against forgeries by the upstream DNS server.
Ha, is this me? Did I write this? I’m in the same boat at one of the big tech firms. I think it’s being new and remote, I’m out of sight and out of mind. No travel for now, so i doubt I’ll get to meet the team in person anytime soon.

I’m going to give it a year, and if it doesn’t get better then I’m out. I’m going to continue being very clear with them about what I want and will offer specific solutions but if it doesn’t change then I’m out.

You do you but if you’re asking if you should be interviewing then you probably should trust your gut.
I get the impression that physicists who advocate “superdeterminism” are ignorant of the philosophical literature on “determinism” - because from a philosophical viewpoint, there is nothing “super-“ about their position, it is just plain old “determinism”.
> “Per capita” frames decarbonization as a sacrifice instead of an opportunity

This is just renaming thing to blame poor and large countries.

A few month ago, someone was complaining that the electric company in ¿Texas? changed the AC of many houses from the selected level to 25°C or something like that. I usually don't turn on the AC until 28°C or 30°C. And some people don't even have AC (or refrigerators).
Couldn't have said it better.

Luckily, this gives people (like me atleast) a great shot at launching a solid product since I won't have an annoying product manager.

The typical product manager today just reads customer feedback and misinterprets data signals. They almost never have a development background where they creatively built something themselves, they always come from some wonky unrelated field... the MBA type.
Lots around here go for $10-15k and house prices are still what I would consider “highish”.
Sounds like a poker approach to chess.

I've never worked in such an environment myself but I imagine it feels something like soldiers feel following a leader who feels like he knows what he's doing. It's the feeling of shared hardship and shared experience and it creates culture of driving to follow the leader.

I imagine Elon Musk (at least used to, not sure if he still does) cause the same experience in employees. That's the sense you get when you read books like "Liftoff" that document the early days of SpaceX.
I misread your comment because i thought you said "now"
He was also there for the Apple I & II, and Mac. His arrogance was understandable, especially in how it floundered in his absence.

Having that outside experience likely shaped him to shine in his second go around.

There's no reason for any dark matter to be distributed in a halo. Maybe it makes some math work better for the observations but nobody offers a dynamical explanation of how it would come to be a halo.

People have started abusing hyperbolic language more and more since text gives little ability to emphasize how strongly they feel.

And soon everything is literally life and death and everything gets maxed to 11.
The weird thing would be discontinuities showing up in wave function evolution without putting them there with the potential energy functions. In the few cases where we can get analytical solutions there are no discontinuities that look anything like wave function collapse.

You're whole thesis rests on the fact that this should fall out when we put 6e23 particles together for reasons.

So far we've not managed to simulate 1,000 quantum particles because the curse of dimensionallity means we run out of computers on earth rather quickly. Which makes anything you're saying pointless since we can't ever check it, even if we turned the whole observable universe into a computer.
> They reached the sum by multiplying the state law’s $5,000 per-violation fine by the 550 million social media exposures Jones’s audience received on his Facebook, YouTube and Twitter accounts in the three years following a school shooting that claimed the lives of 20 first graders and six educators in 2012.

Is this defamation calculation valid? Is the calculation based on the number of people who listen or read? If so, they would need to see how many actually viewed as not every follower sees every post by people they follow.

Maybe one of the nice upsides is that these social media firms are forced to reveal the source to how they display posts.
> This comes across as very ill informed.

This is highly amusing, and I wish I could say why. Thanks for the chuckle :)

I was going to play your game, but this product requires a valid email address and phone number, so generating examples from this product and sharing them here without doxing myself to an unknown company requires way too much effort.

Maybe you can help by copy and pasting the first 50 pages of output from that model for the prompt that is shared by a user below:

The 4800u was used in performance comparisons when the M1 dropped. For the record, that was an 18-month-old chip fabbed on outdated, 7nm silicon that was shipping in ~$450 laptops at the time. Brilliant little Linux devices, I've been told.
I was always a fan of G-Force and Whitecap [0]. There were whispers of this coming to Linux one day, but I don't think it ever materialized (publicly at least).

Exactly. Even if you dispense with hard determinism and allow randomness in your theory, pure randomness is not really free will.
You can't prevent it. It's a knob only admins have access to and is not reflected on the site in any way other than as an obnoxious warning that you've noticed.
If you read the article there is still plenty of room for those effects to hide in, just like there was before these experiments were done. No one has changed their minds because of this.
Inflation adjusted house per square foot has been quite stable for almost 100 years. Houses are now a lot bigger, making the inflation adjusted prices increase. If you factor in shrinking household size, then square foot per person as increased dramatically over the past 50 years. Finally, if you include house quality (fire retardant, electrical improvements, thermal improvements, etc.), then house benefit per dollar has vastly grown over 50 years.

Not sure where you get the "out of control in the 80s" unless you ignore all other relevant variables (like size, quality, efficiency) that also changed.

To read this stuff and see Census data (and others) demonstrating it, google for historical house price per square foot inflation adjusted, and read articles and look at data.

Those arrivals in 1600s were, eg, landing in Boston then going out any buying a plot of land to work and build their future. So there were these larger parcels available, and you'd cut some trees to a) clear some land for farming and b) build your new house.

Folk weren't necessarily able to acquire an existing home then some land out of town.
It happens to me when I upvote and try to go to the newest page too soon (or other page). I guess the system detect two clicks that are too close, and raise an unnecessary warning.

OCR, handwriting recognition and other more niche computer vision. ML computer vision is a step change vs classical methods in many cases (and no better in others just a lot of window dressing)

The "bombastic news headline" stuff often supports improvements in real applications too. It's just that it ends up getting shown off with party-trick type models that look cool but don't go anywhere, adding to the boom and bust cycle (for example search HN for "generative" AI to see a mini hype bubble in full swing: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu... )

What abuse in mind? I don't know what the law says, but based on what the other comment claims, the law requires ramps? I don't see why demanding that places have ramps as the law requires constitutes "abuse" to you.

SMH. You're conflating "broken" by mathematical attack and having enough computing power to brute it (GPUs or quantum). Rise in computing power always jeopardizes the baseline brute cost of every algorithm, which is why standards shift over time, otherwise 3DES would still be recommended for new applications instead of AES.

I made a positive comment in maybe that thread, and I'm a human, and sadly enough nobody has ever even offered to pay me money in return for an internet post.

Seriously, I found myself thinking that most of the criticism against Brave is done by... not an organized group, but a group that is predisposed to loudly criticize it regardless of any actual failing or problem. But that kind of thinking is unfair to the vast majority of posters, pro OR con, who are honestly expressing their opinions. It's probably best to assume good faith, as the good lord and HN guidelines dictate.
Bragg is an easy target because he's clearly there to advance his career, and gets behind podiums a lot. He likes the attention.

Outside of military / national security or if your agreement with your employer stipulates that you would give up your life before corporate secrets (and you are compensated accordingly) it's not reasonable to characterize cooperating at gunpoint as "cowardly"
Think of the people who would be interested and who would be able to play 4k.

Do they have money? Absolutely. To stream 4k you need a good internet connection and good equipment.

With this in mind, it completely makes sense to charge the most for 4k. Someone that cares is more than wealthy enough to pay for it. Having a 4k 1 person plan would be a loss of profits.
Obnoxious? It seems to me that's debatable.
This is a vastly underestimated component of why owning makes more sense than renting for the majority of the population. Practically, you are unlikely to make more than 2x your starting compensation from school. Rental costs are somewhat sticky at around ~25-50% of your income depending on your preferences. You can save money, and live frugally. But a good chunk of your future disposable cash flow is going to come from fixing your housing costs.
>and raise the barrier to entry too high for anyone who doesn’t have their own legal team

That's by design. Megacorps can hire an army of lawyers, mom and pop can't. They'll lobby for "standards" only they can meet to squeeze the competition.
You can do most of this already, right? When you can choose from 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50 year mortgages, take your equity, swap to a new house, pick the mortgage closest to the term you want, and there you go.

You will never get 3% mortgages to follow you through any refinance - if people like the ability to lower by refinancing, the cost is that if you refinance under a worse time you get higher rates. If you want the ability to lock in a 3% loan no matter what changes you make, you will have to pay a premium, so you would not get the 3% to begin with.

But changing term lengths is pretty easy.

> I wonder why even early in the USA's history, before cars, before railroads, we distributed housing so widely as to inhibit socialization?

Lack of endemic warfare after the initial period of settlement and being settled from the least communalist culture on Earth at the time. Farmers clustered in towns far from their fields because they were more defensible from raiders. This wasn’t a problem in the US once the local area had killed all the local Indians. With cheap land you can have large farmsteads, large enough that the nearest settlement is quite far away.
Any recommendations on introductory materials to OCaml?
Tack it onto the list of bizarre symptoms I guess.

One of my more bizarre ones was Reynaud’s-like symptoms in my feet during the winter. Scared me half to death thinking I was going to lose a toe or something and had to run my feet under a hot bath several times to bring feeling back into my toes.

Another one was odd susceptibility to bruising in my feet. I wore some tight shoes one time, the same shoes I had always worn before COVID (some running shoes) and the resultant bruising/swelling made me think I had deep vein thrombosis.

In both cases, after my long COVID symptoms mostly went away around 2-6 months after I got COVID, I’ve never had anything like it happen again before or since.
Maybe you enjoy being algorithmically told to behave but some adults don't. It needs to be a parameter that can be controlled by the user and not the admins.
This is absolutely true in my experiences. I don't think I've genuinely met one Chrome user who hasn't beamed at the prospect of using Safari, yet in light discussions they seem to promote Google products extensively.
This is 300% the case, and they don’t care about you, either.

You’re probably better off finding a good tenant and paying the tenant to manage themselves, paradoxically.

Rental management for the most perfect possible tenants (parents) is still a moderate annoyance and more expensive than expected. Without appreciation I’d be below zero, and even with it I’d have to do some serious work to figure out how much I’ve “made”.
