Are you saying that as a lawyer experienced in this area of law and location... or like my dad dispenses legal advice, because "it's obviously true (to him)"?

The OP quoted written Apple policy. If you want to persuasively negate it, it should have more than "Nope!" in response.
Impressive. Someone should do jq-jit too. I briefly looked into it and it seems like it would be _a lot_ of effort :/
Do you have a source for that?

I've found some references to potentially voiding the warranty by using a non-MFI cable. But again, the cable is included with the phone.
Never have been able to get management buy in for automation.

I even had one manager tell me that there was value in having someone do it manually instead of automatic, I suspect part of their pay or career progression was based on the size of their team.

If the task is a long running expensive task, it's going to block the main thread from being responsive to user input. If it's a quick task then you don't need to schedule it. I struggle to see the place for a medium length task which is long enough that it needs to be deferred but short enough that it can't be executed immediately.

What would be an example?
One of my favorite films of all time - seen it as a kid of 8 and loved it already. After, the additional meanings started to trickle-in as I rewatched it getting older.

Peter Sellers is pure genius x3...
(he was supposed to have EVEN more characters, but Kubrick finnaly settled on 3)

"Precious bodily fluids"...

and so many more...

Legend has it that Slim Pickens ("Maj. Kong", the B52 commander) was playing his character straight and not told that the film was in fact a comedy during the whole shoot.

PS: Couldn't help myself enough to the "Ms. International Affairs" pun while in Erasmus.
I disagree. The principal of Scrum is already rotten. Nothing in it leads to productive developers, only to micromanaged feature factories.
Is not only the import tarrif, we also pay federal tax around 10% and state tax around 17% and those are couting the import tarrif and the cost of shipping for it's base. I also want to add here that 90% of salary workers in Brazil receive less than R$3500 as salary each month, before income tax, so for buying even an iPhone 14 you need to save almost 3x your montly wage.
I think you're really conflating two unrelated problems.

I agree that there is bloat. But that has nothing to do with engineers.

But it's not an engineer's job to create and provide value out of thin air. It is management's job to only hire engineers when they have real value to create that requires more engineers. I imagine 50-90% of hires are "empire building" or politics.

I also expect it's probably a good thing for the industry and the world when these imaginationless FANG companies stop wasting great years of talented engineers and stop being seen as some aspirational goal for everyone.

So does this apply to AirPods as well? Because those aren't sold with a charger either, never have been.

My Apple Watch didn't either -- it comes with a charging puck that attached to a cable, but it doesn't come with a charger. Neither did my Magic Trackpad. Or Magic Keyboard.

Not including a charger is becoming more and more standard. I'm curious if Brazil is applying this law equally to all products that charge over USB, or if it's just selectively targeting flagship devices like iPhones?
Not in German. "ie" means just a long "i", "Krieg" is pronounced "Kreeg". "ei" ist pronounced like "ay" in "aye aye captain". So "Teil" is "Tayl".

On reflection, I'm going to say 'nope'. Because it's Basquiat, I'm pretty sure you couldn't get him to make a model of himself (maybe he would, and call it 'samo'?). I don't think you could pay him to draw a circle with a pencil: I think he'd have been offended and angry. And so that is not 'his work'. It trips over what makes him Basquiat, so doing these things is not Basquiat (though it's very, very Warhol).

Even more than that, you couldn't do Rothko that way: the man would be beyond offended and would not deal with you at all. But by contrast, you ABSOLUTELY are doing a Warhol if you train an AI on him and have it generate infinite works, and furthermore I think he'd be absolutely delighted at the notion, and would love exploring the unexplored conceptual space inside the neural net.

In a sense, an AI Warhol is megaWarhol, an unexplored level of Warholiness that wasn't attainable within his lifetime.

Context and intent matter. All of modern art ended up exploring these questions AS the artform itself, so boiling it down to 'did a specific person make a mark on a thing' won't work here.
The clown that lied on his credentials and doesn't have an ounce of technical experience keeps going at it.

I'm sure the Tesla engineers are happy at least, with this dumbass no longer over their shoulder all the time, they probably can work on making their cars not kill people and stop recognizing children as targets instead of putting funny honk tones in the car.

>We have to ask the question: why is Elon Musk creating what seems to be the most toxic working environment among major tech companies in 2022?

Because he is a completely incompetent clown projecting his insecurities to the world and pretending to be hardcore, and if he was written as a parody of a capitalist villain in a book, he would have been rejected by the editor because it's simply not credible enough that he's that stupid.

You're exactly right, and all the propaganda efforts just made it worse. Now I'm even more convinced that it's all about people seeking to exert more control over others.

I do however, consume lot's of media on how the vaccines are bad, and I'm skeptical of media that glosses over the science aspect and focuses on far fetched control conspiracies only. Limited hangouts and poisoning the well are misinformation tactics fwiw.

The promise of future cars is a traffic without any dependence on human errors. For that I am ok with an inevitable transition which may bring some serious accidents.

The problem with trains is to get into one. A car can be boarded almost anywhere. And if that car doesn’t need any human operator – it’s perfect.

Just imagine all the people who will not need to drive. Machines will drive and people will design yet another better future:-)
Yes, it was. Myth by definition implies a scenario in which everyone who knows you loves you. It maybe impossible to reach that milestone but it should be no less than 75% likeability.

And I'm nervous customers will move away from 365. Because Azure AD integrations will then need to be replaced. But I suspect things won't move quite so fast.

100% agree. Head count is like oil or Dune's Spice at these companies. Middle managers just want to grow the headcount under them to grow their own influence and get more power in whatever petty politics they are currently engaged in.

You are 100% right
sure, but does any engineer that's been on both sides of work crazy and get amazing stuff done vs. cruise ship make 1 icon change a day get that sentiment? Surely there are some engineers at twitter getting re-energized because of the new direction? https://youtu.be/KX7tj3giizI?t=5096 (link to all in pod where they talk about the 2001st engineer hire)

If by "the iOS app" you mean the first-party one, it's pretty new. There are lots of more mature third party ones. I've found Metatext to be a lot more featureful (and it can disable the content warnings); your milage may vary.
I typically avoid anything other than small companies. But with the last mid-size company I worked for, there definitely was not enough “real work” to fill 40 hours, or even 30. I had to learn to pace myself. But I still had to be available, on-site, during that time. With remote work “over employment”, people are taking advantage of those inefficiencies.
As huge parts of the kernel are effectively device driver code which interacts with hardware on a low level, classic unit testing techniques like mocking can't be applied - or they could be, by writing a mock for the device in question, but that's usually prohibitively expensive if you aim for a fidelity level at which such a mock would actually be of any worth and wouldn't just provide you the "good feeling" of having some unit test coverage while not really increasing the confidence in the tested code.

This is especially true when we're talking about reverse-engineered device communication protocols, where you don't have a clue how the device actually works internally, and thus lack the basic means of constructing a mock that does more than just implement the exact same assumptions you've already based your driver code on (resulting in always-green tests that never find actual bugs). But also in cases where you have a protocol spec, the vast majority of ugly bugs in drivers usually originate from differences between that spec and the behavior of the device in the real world.
iPhones come with a lightning-to-USB-C cable, not USB-A which most chargers and outlets still are. They only sold USB-C chargers very briefly before removing them from the box, so even if you already had an iPhone, there is a 90% chance you’ll need to buy a new charger.
Likely because the German ie is not at all pronounced like in pie, but some English ei like in reimbursed aren't that far off.

Roughly as close as the German Ei (noun) comes to the English ie in piej off, but not that far off. So it's kind of symmetric. Makes me wonder if there are any English words where we Germans are prone to do that flip?
I am also wondering this. But I hope it won't move quite so far or fast as to ban Windows.

Data sovereignty is here to stay, no matter the push back from Silicon Valley.

A government would be stupid to hand over all their citizens data to the US via US technology companies.

There should be two directions of attack on this issue. Legislation to try and force US companies to legally protect personal data of citizens from other countries. And to build competitors to Microsoft, Amazon etc.

Obviously creating a viable competitor is hard, and has been badly neglected. Not least because any non-US competitor would have to fight the US Government itself which would attempt to protect the US tech companies dominant positions.

I'll take the GDPR and other countries attempts at the legislative route as a start however.

>Now it's the time to be resilient and provide extreme value to you employer

No, my employer will keep dealing with my relatively good value. If he only wants to keep top performers, he will soon run out of engineers to actually do the work, both because he can't hire and the current ones will burn out.

Providing extreme value to your employer just means selling yourself for cheap and making him a bunch of money. "Hahaha, no" is an appropriate answer to such a demand.
How is gojq different? Cursory look at the README and it seems like it implements the same language.

My problem is the infrequency with which I need to use jq means I don't create a good learning feedback loop. The last time I used it though, I was able to walk down a decently complicated structure (indexed val in an array in a key in a hash in an array) and extract the data I wanted only having to google once. Like awk, though, I know there's a world of functionality I'm just not using.
> DDD has little to say about the most crucial aspect of those boundaries - where the boundaries go and why.

The whole point of DDD is that there can't be a one-size-fits-all answer to these questions. Instead, they give you some questions you need to think about, and tools that might help you find answers.
AFAIK this only occurs when you have Microsoft Teams installed.
Oh that monochrome screen !

Before the iPhone, I always had a Palm with me for more than 7 years. Sure, windows phone and Symbian and others were also available. But I really like the palm.

I remember constantly showcasing all those apps to people, and they just did not get it.

Maybe the killer app for the iPhone was the phone app. The truth is, it all just came together: 3G, social media, better Components threshold…
Be careful; the only performance comparison they made was between the x86_64 builds and the arm64 builds. Both were done on the same hardware, with the x86_64 build necessarily running in emulation. This only proves that the ported game runs better than the non–ported game run in emulation, not that it runs better on an M1 Mac than on other computers.
I will stand by this, despite the disagreements.

How far should a company go to make its products disposable in a responsible way? They're already recyclable!

So the responsibility passes to the consumer: I've witnessed countless instances where recyclable items are put into general trash (or littered). It's unacceptable! Well, for me it is - but not for many (MANY!) average consumers.

And how does that trash end up in rivers and the sea? Hint: it wasn't Coca Cola company.

It's up to municipal authorities (with direction from central government) to provide recycling facilities, and to enforce recycling for those ignorant/recalcitrant/idiot consumers who can't/won't follow basic instructions.

And it's up to central government to appropriately punish the irresponsible dumping of trash.

That's a long trail of responsibility, necessitating some really tough choices and actions. Easier to just blame the company, right? That's a pathetic argument.

It should be a closed system, from producer to consumer to recycler. That system is incomplete! Fix it!

? These protections have been, well, protecting employees from companies much larger and much more litigious than Twitter. A lot of it has been made around troubles with car manufacturers and other industries, and involves unions (something the US doesn't seem to understand is a necessary thing).

There's been larger layoffs that have all respected the law, because judges do not fuck around with this. It's one thing to fire one employee and bet that he will not have the time or money to fight for two months of back pay. It's a whole other to fire more than 50 people (which in most of europe is the trigger for mass layoffs) and not have even the state have a look at it.

item c of "what is not covered by this warranty": https://www.apple.com/legal/warranty/products/ios-warranty-d...

Note that the same clause is present in the brazillian warranty.
Banning the product and forcing the manufacturer to pay damages to every single person they sold that garbage to, for example.
Let's put it this way: in reality, how is Apple ever going to know what charger you used? Obviously it can't.

So in practice, which is all that matters, it can never void your warranty.

And let's keep in mind, the entire purpose of a standard USB-C port is that you can use any charger. Otherwise Apple would use a proprietary connector on its charger, which it has never done.

So let's just stay in the realm of common sense here, OK? :) No need to be demanding whether someone is a lawyer, sheesh.

If you want to contribute unit tests, I believe that Linus would be open to the idea. For example, there are a bunch of internal APIs: linked lists come to mind. If you wrote unit tests for an internal API, he might accept it. I would start very small -- one .c file with no more than 20 unit tests -- to gauge if there is interest from the community. It seems like a nice gateway to get junior developers (university-level students) in the kernel development. Reading open source mailing lists, I have learned that the best way to "break-in" is a tiny code change that is well-tested. It is hard to reject this type of submission. Be unopinionated, but competant in your submission, and they will be open-minded.
Protocol for disabling vsync just landed together with the fractional scaling, now it's up to applications and compositors to implement it.
Taking screenshot just works, there's a fair amount of tools for it. The one difference is that some tools are compositor specific.

I know there's automation tools like xdottool, never used those though.

I never saw much difference in term of delay, I find playing on wayland better, some games being much smoother even when using xwayland.

I have AMD hardware only so can't say here.

There's a procol being worked on to allow tearing, it's not available yet though https://www.phoronix.com/news/Wayland-Tearing-Control-Proto
That's probably because a lot of electron apps still run via Xwayland and you need to opt into ozone (chromium Wayland implementation)

I guess a more recent film is almost impossible to make you feel the same "feeling" again when watching it. But close calls I would say would be:

- Wag the Dog (1997)

- In the Loop (2009)
[the closest, in my opinion]

PS: The Death of Stalin (2017) and Don't Look Up (2021) also try, but I think they don't manage to get that close.

I would also say that Coen brother's works, also of high quality and appealing to a similar-minded crowd, though are completely different animals.

> This makes me wonder why aren't there any unit tests in the kernel (and the different drivers in it; especially file system related).

Others have already commented on the testing situation for the kernel in general (historically, the tests were all in separate projects outside the kernel, and more recently, the kernel itself has a testing framework), but for filesystems in particular, there's an external project called "xfstests". The name might imply they're only for xfs (and they were originally made to test xfs in particular), but they're used for all filesystems (and also for the common filesystem-related code in the kernel).
