Even when I carry my camera (Sony a7iii) around, I still take a lot of photos with my iPhone. The iPhone often gives better out-of-camera results than the Sony in high dynamic range situations. And other times it's just easier to grab my iPhone and take a quick snap than to swap the lens on the Sony for something wider.

Of course there are also a lot of situations where big-sensor, interchangeable lens cameras still excel, such as low light, telephoto, shallow depth of field, and resolution. So my Sony also gets a lot of use.

Is there a reason why you wouldn't combine pumped hydro with a diverted fraction of a natural river? You get the ability to store electricity along with some pure generation capacity while still allowing the river to mostly flow unimpeded. You're already building the generation capacity, and this allows you to generate some electricity 24/7 if the need arises. It seems feasible to divert a fraction of a river's flow, provided you work with natural, seasonally fluctuating flow rates, and not severely disturb wildlife. i.e. distribute the diversion plumbing over a mile of the river course.
Meat tastes delicious and is packed full of healthy things we need to live. Sone animals would eat us when given the chance.

I think it’s important to not treat animals like humans precisely so we don’t treat humans like calorie sources.
Although it is unpopular among some, I sincerely believe we should bring back corporal punishment ala Singapore. None of the people who damage and destroy priceless artwork, or block highways and cause thousands of people to suffer an unknown array of discomfort ranging from being late to their job to being unable to get the hospital, are imprisoned or face any significant punishment for their transgressions against the rest of us, and society at large. Indeed, these people are rewarded by their peers and those in their social group for their perceived acts of heroism. Society cannot function as long as people are able to willfully break the law, cause destruction and impact the lives of countless people with their crimes without having some sort of substantive punishment for doing so.
For background, need only some routine calculus and the most elementary probability theory.

The chapter on the Poisson process, early in the book, is nice to amazing, e.g., his axiomatic derivation. You should be able to get the main ideas in 1-2 evenings of fun, pleasant reading.

Science is awash in Poisson processes; it is nice to understand more about them. That they have no memory seems to me like maybe a thin thread could pull to say some things about what is going on in the internals of some of those cases of Poisson processes. I.e., you are looking at some system with some unknown internals, some working mechanism, but the evidence is that it has no memory. The system has some internal state but no memory? How can that be? So, we have some possibly severe limitations on how the internals work. Now I'm concentrating mostly on my startup and deliberately setting aside pursuing such questions -- maybe later. But you, maybe in chemistry, quantum lifetimes, time until a nucleus splits, ..., glitches in complicated computer systems, ....

Similarly for the other chapters.

If you take the book fully seriously, e.g., carefully follow all the proofs and work most of the exercises, it's a good one semester course.
Fully agree. Didn’t mean to imply that Apples growth was specifically due to Vista or Windows 7, just that it mostly occurred then and not as much in the Win10 era.

> Since I bet you don't want to only eat beans, you'll probably want to take a pea protein supplement to replace the whey supplement. These cost about the same, but vary depending on location. Also, a vegan diet will be higher in carbs and lower in fat, unless you supplement with a lot of protein powder and eat a lot of nuts.

Your own source admits that it is difficult to get enough protein in a vegan diet without supplementation. I'm on a medication that increases my insulin response, and I can't eat 400+ grams of carbohydrates a day just to get ~100 grams of protein without both getting fat and putting myself at risk of pre-diabetes.

Many of these are just carbohydrates. One of the recipes is literally just overnight oats, others are full of bread, grains and other carbohydrates with little to no protein at all.

Apple already does enforce having their option alongside other external options: Sign in with Apple is requires if you also offer sign in with google etc.

I think this would be a great solution. I also prefer using apple for purchases, but they should at least be allowed to point the user to another purchase option.

The facility you linked produces and stores chemical fuel, and can't even convert it back into electricity.

The project includes using Mitsubishi M501JAC combined-cycle gas turbines to turn the hydrogen back into electricity:

https://www.powermag.com/aces-deltas-giant-utah-salt-cavern-...

https://power.mhi.com/products/gasturbines/lineup/m501j

This turbine has a rated combined-cycle efficiency of 64%.

Production of hydrogen is more than 70% efficient in the best current commercial electrolyzers:

https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy04osti/36705.pdf

Round-trip efficiency is much lower than 80%, but not as low as you have written here.

He was disinvited from joining the board. (Personally, I think CEO Parag Agrawal had good reason for doing so, if you remember Musk's tweets from that time, regarding changes he wanted to see in Twitter.)

What do you think should be the parameters / conditions / requirements Apple should establish for such 3rd party app stores? For instance, any requirements on them for a baseline of security checks?

Or would you want Apple out of that loop too?

As a side question, are there stats on which are the most popular Android app stores (e.g. top 10 ranked by usage or something like that). I ask because I wonder, in practice, how many app stores are really used at any scale on Android.

That I agree with. 30% is steep and feels excessive. But I'm just arguing as an end user I value the peace of mind that I can install any app from their App Store with a reasonable amount of confidence. It's not perfect and things do slip through the cracks, but it's better than nothing.

I suppose the big question is whether this makes Twitter more or less attractive to the audience at large.

Social media is extremely fickle and driven by mass migrations. All it takes is a few key players moving and the house of cards collapses.

I think Facebook is a textbook example, having once been the cool alternative to MySpace, which was the cool alternative to web 1.0 and Friendster, etc.
I'm surprised such actions aren't treated like spoliation, in which the court assumes the worst of evidence intentionally destroyed by a party.

Yeah, I thought that same thing as well. Kind of surprising (though I'm not surprised Musk was able to acquire Twitter).
> I don't use any of the most popular tech products on the market

that's a very compelling dataset size of 1.

uber, for one, publishes number of its users and rides, and in 2021 it was about 100 million active users who did a few billion rides. For a public company that delivers a physical service, kind of hard to fudge that.
Here's a midler analogy (sincerely) "I am mad the perp assaulted a woman, but the woman cried about it very loudly and that was annoying to me. I can be mad about two things at once." Being upset about a painting and putting it on the same scale of societal collapse is a great example of equivocation that cheapens the greater harm.
When I built a tool for users of eBay about 20 years ago, the CD option came in a DVD case and cost a flat $5 extra including U.S. shipping. The installer would just download the latest version. The DVD case had a printed code, the same one that would be emailed otherwise. It was nice to show a photo of a physical product, and many people were happy with a download instead.
My main thought on reading this is -- why do they need a whole helicopter to take that video? Shouldn't it just be a drone at a small fraction of the size and expense?
There was also meta-moderation, which allowed the community to deal with bad upvote/downvote behavior - brigading, stalking, etc. It wasn't perfect, but it did avoid the near-universal ills of moderator bias (including unconscious/cognitive bias), burnout from over-exposure, and flat out anti-empirical theories about how to do moderation properly. I wish more experiments like that had been tried (kuro5hin also made some efforts and Advogato took it even further) instead of basically reverting to a Usenet-era model.
I support Zuckerberg 100% and think he's doing the right thing, or at least the right kind of thing, even though I think VR will probably fail. Too many businesses are infected with a kind of parasitic capitalism disease - Warren Buffet is the prime exemplar of this - dominate a niche, build a moat, raise prices, extract value, repeat ad nauseum.

Zuckerberg is doing something different. He amassed a gigantic fortune and built a huge company. Now he's trying to innovate rather than simply sit on his hoard and extract value. He's spending his money on real innovation - actual technology. That's good. Plus, he's doing it in complete defiance of media, investors, business types, etc. That takes courage. Good for Zuckerberg.

What is the point of getting control over such vast capital if not to try and build the future?
If the starvation doesn't get you then the poison water will. Bet those crush-cages are looking pretty good right now.

Ridiculous article. It’s very simple. If you don’t steal cars or try to elude police or break the law in some other way you have nothing to worry about.
I think there's a difference between verifying a report and simply triaging it to the right team. Apple is doing the former while companies that respond in 15 mins are often doing the latter.
It is different variations of the Infinite Hotel in a format suitable for kids. It deals more with the idea of infinity in general I think and tries to frame this using multiple examples.

It's certainly possible. I've handled a bunch of bug bounty programs and sometimes submissions come in at just the right time and attract just the right attention. It's not a reasonable expectation for the average submission.
> Things like pointer authentication, memory tagging, CHERI, aslr, stack cookies, etc, etc are all mitigations to limit what can be done once someone finds a memory error, and all of these things are relatively expensive costs incurred as a result of the lack of safety of the code being written

Presumably CHERI/MTE/etc. hardware support would help (at the expense of die area and 128-bit pointers); it would be nice to see something like this in Apple Silicon.

Ask HN: Is there a proper Music.app alternative on macOS?
Perhaps I haven't looked hard enough but I can't seem to find a viable alternative to Music.app. Does anyone a recommendation?

Am excluding Spotify clients since streaming of interest. I remember on Linux in early 10s/late 00s abounding in quality native music apps with album covers, lyrics, etc but there seems to be a dearth on modern macOS.

I use IINA as default media player but it doesn't have all the fixings of a dedicated music app.
It still doesn’t have bookmarks. Still. This isn’t even just missing reader functionality but would be really helpful in notes as well. Yes, you can get around this with hacks… that are wiped out along with your custom templates as soon as you update.

The web interface fails to upload for me about 80% of the time.

The hardware works brilliantly. Aesthetically, it is an objectively beautifully designed device.

Connect subscription is useless to me, and I’ve never used it.

I’m still torn on the purchase, about a year later. It’s… ok, and I like having it around as it scratches the “want to write but I don’t like having 40 notebooks” itch. It would be nice to have a backlight as well, but most of the time I’m alright without.

Thats an interesting way of looking at it, but seems kind of misleading to use a cow. Pigs can live anywhere and eat pretty much anything and are a much more common meat. Beef has always been a luxury meat in most places.
What wattage, enough to charge my phone. What speed, don't really care but it's at least the same as Lightning. Video, never used it.

EU wanted to break up Apple's proprietary control over the iPhone ports and create a charging standard, cause charging is the important part. Anyone can make a higher-spec USB-C cable without going to Apple, and chargers are uniform for all phones.

Worth repeating that I don't agree with the EU's law, just saying why they did it. Nobody in this thread has brought up the real con, which is that tech regulation hinders innovation, and the minor frustration with chargers wasn't a big enough problem to warrant that.
Only barely more than half of the European countries are in EU, and 20 years ago, less than a third was.
Also note that it should be "300 meter resolution". You don't use a plural when using it as an adjective. I only point this out to help people because this is a common grammar mistake for non-native speakers.

Right... running a social media company is different from running a rocket company or an electric car company. I wouldn't bet against Musk though. He has already adjusted his position on what is allowed on Twitter, now that he is running the company. Previously he said anything that is legal would be allowed but now he says Twitter won't be a "free-for-all hellscape where anything can be said with no consequences"! [1]

https://developers.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-one/identity/us...

The configuration is:

Host vm.example.com
ProxyCommand bash -c '/usr/local/bin/cloudflared access ssh-gen --hostname %h; ssh -tt %r@cfpipe-vm.example.com >&2 <&1'

Host cfpipe-vm.example.com
HostName vm.example.com
ProxyCommand /usr/local/bin/cloudflared access ssh --hostname %h
IdentityFile ~/.cloudflared/vm.example.com-cf_key
CertificateFile ~/.cloudflared/vm.example.com-cf_key-cert.pub

Think about this a bit. Contemplate what happens if you use sftp, vscode remoting, or anything else nontrivial. Hint: “cloudflared access ssh-gen” is not actually any sort of proxy, and the ssh -tt command is a kludge that should, if openssh were more on the ball about inherited file descriptors, should not work at all.

The right way to to this is to use Match … exec. Or to ask openssh to add an option for a command to execute before reading IdentityFile. Or to ask for an IdentityFileCommand option. Or to use a custom ssh agent.
