It’s not misleading, this is Apple releasing the news and it has obviously been developed in collaboration with Apple.

The term “Dive computer” is not something to be taken lightly. It’s hardware you literally depend on to keep you alive during a dive. The fact that Apple is supporting this externally developed app says they have a very higher level of trust in their hardware.

Typically a dive computer would cost more than an Apple Watch and be a single purpose device. The fact that Apple is entering the arena is quite a disruption as other brands will be forced to either compete on price or really raise the bar on innovation to justify their current levels.
With projects like blockfi, users get all the disadvantages of the centralized traditional financial system without any of the regulatory protections that have built up over centuries. Terrible for the people with assets in blockfi but extremely predictable. The point of defi is that you can use financial services without a centralized counterparty. People who can’t handle their own keys should be using traditional banks, at least until the technology is improved. Compare to Aave and other actually decentralized lending protocols which are not at risk of bankruptcy.

From https://www.open-std.org/JTC1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/n2625.pdf:

> The goal of the future language and library reservations is to alert C programmers of the potential for
future standards to use a given identifier as a keyword, macro, or entity with external linkage so that
WG14 can add features with less fear of conflict with identifiers in user’s code. However, the mechanism
by which this is accomplished is overly restrictive – it introduces unbounded runtime undefined
behavior into programs using a future language/library reserved identifier despite there not being any
actual conflict between the identifier chosen and the current release of the standard. ...

> Instead of making the future language/library identifiers be reserved identifiers, causing their use to be
runtime unbounded undefined behavior per 7.1.3p1, we propose introducing the notion of a potentially
reserved identifier to describe the future language and library identifiers (but not the other kind of
reservations like __name or _Name). These potentially reserved identifiers would be an informative
(rather than normative) mechanism for alerting users to the potential for the committee to use the
identifiers in a future release of the standard. Once an identifier is standardized, the identifier stops
being potentially reserved and becomes fully reserved (and its use would then be undefined behavior
per the existing wording in C17 7.1.3p2). These potentially reserved identifiers could either be listed in
Annex A/B (as appropriate), Annex J, or within a new informative annex. Additionally, it may be
reasonable to add a recommended practice for implementations to provide a way for users to discover
use of a potentially reserved identifier. By using an informative rather than normative restriction, the
committee can continue to caution users as to future identifier usage by the standard without adding
undue burden for developers targeting a specific version of the standard.
I wonder if future generations will be disappointed that our memories are recorded as photos and there’s so little video of when their grandparents were kids. Video is many levels more immersive, but I still find myself and others are more “camera shy” on video than when having a photo taken.
I always wondered if Poland could use a better alphabet to reflect the nuances of their language more appropriately. With so many Latin letters stacked together and the way Polish changes their pronunciation, it seems like the alphabet could be improved quite a bit.

Angular 2 is a good example of something that didn't turn out so well. Many developers gave pause and ended up just migrating to a competing framework instead. I just skimmed through this but it looks like a decent summary: https://medium.com/@chriscordle/why-angular-2-4-is-too-littl...

NPM trends tells an interesting story as well: https://npmtrends.com/@angular/core-vs-react-vs-vue
Beyond and Impossible are full of chemicals. Definitely not a healthy alternative to traditional veggie patties. I wouldn't even call them food really. It doesn't even really qualify as a veggie burger (it's pea protein isolate, which doesn't really count). Beyond that (no pun intended) it's got a lot of seed oil, which is awful for you.
I don't think you're wrong. Purchasing things that are illegal but probably shouldn't be, such as anabolic steroids, modafinil, sci-hub, within-family remittances to economically-sanctioned countries, is a benefit. It's just that if that's the only thing we can come up with, it's hard to make that the basis of widespread adoption and law enforcement and legislatures all over the world are going to try and stop you.

Also, if the speculation use case disappears and illegal transactions is really the only thing left, then buying or owning crypto at all is going to put you under suspicion automatically, which reduces the usefulness.
Judging by this chart 2015-2020 and 2020-2022 were both booms. We are now at 2015 and 2020 levels and might go lower.
yeah that part is strangely hard. I did an rx pricing system for a pharmacy chain early in my career and the weirdest things would happen. The chain would just get random checks from insurance carriers with no EOB or anything to know what invoice to tie the check to. Then, when the insurance company realized their mistake, they wouldn't call us or cancel the check or anything they'd just short a invoice for the amount of the check or sometimes even divide it over multiple invoices. This would happen like 6 month later.

we had an account that was literally called "magic money" where these checks were deposited. Then when an insurance carrier shorted their invoice and we could find no rational reason why we would use the "magic money" account to cover it.

Decent doesn't quite cover it for people unfamiliar with the size of the state. The island that this volcano is on is bigger than the states of Delaware and Rhode Island combined.
I really hope it doesn't cause other brands to adopt the "Dive Computer As A Service" model. I like buying products that I actually own. I feel like pressure to push the cost of reliable dive computers down will do more to democratize diving than an app for an expensive smart watch.
> The state's legitimacy is questionable. Who wants papers to have a copyright of 70+ years? Certainly less than 10% of the stakeholder population. And still they do.

Maybe you live in a dictatorship, and I'm sorry if you do, but the majority of the world lives in democracies. The reality is that you're either wrong, or people just don't care enough about this issue to vote based on it.

There are entire political parties built around this issue (look up "pirate party") and they don't get a lot of votes.
> It looks like you don't understand the definition and the point of reproducibility. If you just click on a button to recompute the results from the same code, this is not "reproducibility". The point of reproducibility is to have other scientists able to confirm your results in a fully independent way. They should be able to do it from scratch, without your code, and reach the same conclusion.

I highly disagree with that. In machine learning for instance, it's very important to be able to check authors' claims because otherwise you can't know if they are lying or not, or if they cheated or not ("what do you mean we can't use our test data to improve our training process?")

Plus, you can't improve on what others did if they don't let you access their own code and dataset. "We got better results than previous works it seems, but we can't know for sure because maybe that's because our method is better, maybe that's because our code is better, we will never know." My ML approach is more efficient than yours because you wrote it in python on your laptop and I wrote it in C and spent a lot of time to optimize it, plus I have a faster computer. Yeah sure. That's not science.
I find it odd that you used both "it's a community project" and "talk to your vendor" in the same reply to address the same concern.
> David Goggins lost 100 lbs in 3 months on an 800ish calorie diet.

Losing weight that fast generally means it comes back pretty quickly as well.

> I lost 60 lbs over a couple of years

That's a much more reasonable timeframe. It's almost like we have to trick our bodies into finding a new metabolic balance. Do it too quickly and it just rebounds. Do it more slowly and it seems to be more sustainable.
His channel is great but it gives a false sense of what can be accomplished on my budget most of the time. It's always far above what I can afford but If I can even replicate 10% of what he does I'll be better off than most.

I agree and disagree. In some cases subtitles reveal information you shouldn't have yet like the identity of characters yet to reveal themselves.

From what I understood, different models of Landcruiser, which can sometimes look completely different, still tend to use mostly the same components. All specifically to make it easy to maintain the things.

Honestly, that story about the guy on the camel is probably true. A Landcruiser that has finally broken down is still a source of parts for other Landcruisers.
Exactly. You don't win against an asshole by arguing. You win by either getting them to understand where you're coming from or by letting them show their true colors while maintaining the moral high ground.
Picking a Mercedes Benz as the example of a "safe eco friendly" car is a strawman.

This is propaganda. The very term "jay" ("crazy") walker is propaganda invented by a car seller.

In reality,it's the cars that are out of control.
There are a number of islands in the Hawaiian Islands spread over a fairly large area. (For commercial travel, you need to fly between them.) The biggest, where the eruption is happening, is also called Hawaii although locals refer to it as Big Island unless they're referring to the state as a whole. Big Island is 4,028 square miles (10,430 km2) and has a population of about 200,000 most of which is on either the east or the west coast.

Most of the population of the state though is in Honolulu on Oahu (also where Pearl Harbor is). There are over 100 islands but just 8 main ones of which casual visitors might visit 5.
I made well over 100 applications last April - May; as a grad student close to their master's at a top EU University. I had more success from FAANG companies than startups. I eventually landed a very low paying job at a fintech startup but they had financial issues. Come mid july I found myself interviewing for a FAANG company, and today I passed probation period.

The fact that I was good enough for a FAANG company, but unhirable to almost everyone else is a bit beyond me.
Apple is the company who seems to be announcing this, although it does make it sound like a first-party application.

It does seem like Apple was involved though, so I guess it's not really 100% 3rd-party either. Maybe we can call it 2nd-party?

I also live in the Netherlands. I confirm that the above comment very accurately describes the agriculture situation in the Netherlands, much more so than the washington post article.
It always struck me as odd that one the one hand, finding people with experience in this field seem to be very hard to find, but on the other hand, IBM makes it so hard for people to learn this stuff. I wonder if it didn't pay off for them in the long run to just put up one beefy machine on the Internet, offer free accounts to people or just a free hobbyist license like you can get for VMS. Are they paranoid about customers cheating to hitch a free ride?
The stark white Toyota is really a symbol. Had no idea they are going to Ukrine too.
StackOverflow, I feel, inherently ties into the "Release early. Release often." philosophy: if you ship broken code , oh well , there'll be a release soon enough to fix it. This can not be borne in a mainframe environment. This is not to say there aren't bugs because of course there are but the expectation is completely different. This kind of "by your bootstraps" education is no bueno. You will get lots of training and excellent documentation. We used to measure the amount of documentation IBM ships with the mainframe not in pages but in yards it takes on the shelves.

StackOverflow in itself is the answer to the question "who you gonna call" -- because you might be alone, or you might be working on a small team where no one has better expertise, and usually you are working with open source and so no one is obligated to pick up the phone at the software "manufacturer". This scenario does not play in a mainframe environment: you are going to be part of a larger team, full of literal graybeards and when push comes to shove then you do have a contact number: your employer is paying absolutely ridiculous amounts of money to the software company and they will have a contact person who will pick up the phone.
My experience is that you get SIGFPE for division by zero errors.
Post author here. I'm very curious about the screen reader idea. If you or someone else is able to confirm what a good screen reader might do currently / what it might do with an empty list element, I'll happily update the post to whatever is the better behavior.

I wish there were a best practices doc + a matching linter for accessibility things like this.
> Thanks for bringing this up. It's super important. And also makes me why other drugs in this class (dissociatives) aren't being looked more aggressively. Dextromethorphan -- in common cough syrup -- is one example. It has other side effects (nausea, etc.) but doesn't have the bladder destructive issues associated with ketamine

The fact that they're both dissociatives doesn't mean they're substitutable in any given context.

Dextromethorphan is a much riskier drug overall than ketamine, in almost every measurable way. It's very easy to overdose on dextromethorphan, to the point where people routinely do it by accident while self-medicating for a cough. By contrast, it's actually quite difficult to overdose on ketamine - the LD50 is quite high, and a person would likely incapacitate themselves halfway through and be unable to finish.

They also have dramatically different effects - there are actually very few contexts in which both could be considered an acceptable choice for a given goal.

The bladder issues with ketamine are only documented for chronic heavy users. There's no clinical evidence of it for one-time use, and given the extensive use of ketamine in controlled settings for several decades, the absence of evidence is (in this case) strong evidence of absence.
Another interesting fact: the grain deal between Ukraine and Russia that was supposed to alleviate hunger in the poorest of African countries led to the import of almost 800K ton of grains to the Netherlands. Some of it for further distribution within Europe, and most of it to feed livestock.

And the African countries who suffer crop failures due to intense floods? They depend on the grains imports to even survive, but all combined they imported about half of what the Netherlands imported. Europe is so filthy rich we outbid those poor countries, just so we can feed our livestock to make hamburgers, and now the Europeans get 6 million tons of grain from the Ukraine deal. The poor African countries get a mere 400k tons. That is wild to me.

A perfect illustration of how messed up our food system and trade is.
in the same sense that "wear a mask" is dogmatic
well, no. you can use MVVM with UIKit.. or VIPER.. or CLEAN. I have seen them all.

And on the note of the app you are developing now.. you would be surprised! I don't often plug my own apps.. but if you look up snap web studios in the app store both of those apps are purely SwiftUI with maybe one or two UIKit bridges for the hacker news app. Eggy is ambitious from a UX perspective, and the HN app is just straight-up impressive and demonstrates that you can make complex and very fast SUI apps.

edit: also, not sure if you were aware -- but you can use observable objects & such with UIKit :P
Show HN: An adaptive Chinese reader. Only helps where you need it
Hey folks!

I made a free Chinese reading tool after trying to get through The Hunger Games almost drove me crazy.

Any Chinese (or, I assume, Japanese) learner will tell you there's a frustrating uncanny valley where you're good enough to start pursuing "real" reading material, but there are just too many unknown characters to actually make it through.

What I'm really working toward with this is something where you can upload an EPUB and it will give you a modified EPUB with exactly, and only, the language help that you need added as text annotations (called "rubies" typographically).

Probably the world's most niche web app, but hey -- for those in this specific situation, it's a real struggle.

I hacked it together pretty quickly, so if this gets any sizable load from HN I'm sure it will crash, but I would LOVE feedback from Chinese learners out there!
> A representative from BlockFi did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Well I am sure the "representative from BlockFi" made out just fine working for BlockFi. I wonder if all these failures will finally tag these crypto companies as ponzi schemes ? Then these people will face real consequences.
Haptics you can feel through a 7mm wetsuit? I'm impressed by that, although I'd not want them turned up that high on my bare wrist!

This seems like a winner for vacation diving. For those divers that manage a couple dives a year on the family trip to the Caribbean, you have a device you know extremely well from daily life and that you know you keep charged, rather than a standalone computer you kinda forgot to get serviced or, worse, have to rent. Big, clear ascent rate warnings in color. It looks more accessible than some inscrutable Suunto, especially with a companion phone app.

If I had an apple watch I'd wear this it on my other wrist to my Perdix just to get GPS integration and all the health monitoring too - interesting to correlate heart rate with events in the dive, gas consumption and so on.

> since employers are looking for luxury goods and offering to work for very cheap would send the wrong signal.

I'm not sure that's the right perspective. It's true that offering Google a chance to hire you for minimum wage isn't going to win you a seat. But most potential employers aren't putting themselves in front of the market because they believe nobody out there will work for less than a healthy six figures (or whatever).

I walk down the street of a small town and see endless businesses who understand where they could improve their business with tech, but also know they'd be bankrupted in a matter of days if they had to pay FAANG-level salaries. They don't even bother trying to hire tech talent. At $7.25 per hour, however, now you've got their interest.
Very true. If the internet is making you feel bad, read a book!
Holy shit. You are disagreeing with me about the meaning of a term. That is not about marketing, that is literally what "semantic" means.

> Since you don't like the connotations of word "issue", what word would you suggest to replace it? Keep it mind that it needs to be similarly broad and encompass not just bug reports and feature requests, but also documentation improvements, design discussions and more.

Only if you want to keep everything about the UI the same except for the word used for what's currently called "issues". That's not something I have expressed any sort of desire for.
Regenerative breaking is an amazing piece of tech. I really like electric cars that have it baked-in the "gas" pedal so that releasing it slows down the car without using the brakes. You can achieve "optimal" driving by always recouping the kinetic energy as electricity instead.of heat in your break pads.
Yeah, it's only a propietary approximation.
> How safe is it, though, for you and others?

Distraction (phones mainly), drunkenes, drugs, speeding, running lights, reckless driving, fatigue are the most common reason for accidents. It's the drivers, not the cars.
I wish people would stop using the "10x" term, as it is meaningless. Nobody can articulate what x is or even what units x should be in. I won't even start--and nor should I need to--on "engineer."

The value of a person engaged in software development is highly context dependent. In the last year as an "engineer" in my previous role, I made a single code commit. A one line configuration change as part of an ops rotation. When I announced I was leaving, my supervisor (and his supervisor) was sad. They threw me a party with a customized cake. How was my contribution being measured? I wasn't managing people. I wasn't coding. But I had "built" multiple products.

Someone once asked me "how do you explain to your parents what it is you do at work?" I replied "I can't even explain it to my boss."

People regarded as 10x in one situation will enter another situation and appear to fail miserably.
Doesn't NixOS require reboot after each software install? I don't remember the last time I restarted my Mac or even PC.
I'm going to put it this way: "reputable" newspapers generally want to influence opionion (lie) in a somewhat subtle way. Publishing trivially disprovable falsehoods about official acts isn't how they act, so you can generally trust the parliament-does-something -> official act -> newspaper writing about the official act custody chain insofar as the official act actually existing.
Looks like it needs to be normalized by overall site activity or something.
This is still crazy to me that most (all?) smartwatch cannot get past ~50m WR when I can buy a basic casio for a fraction of the cost with 100m to 200m WR.
But then I guess using a tactile screen underwater is pretty hard. I really don't see the Apple Watch being use has anything but a gadget for diving.

edit: so the apple watch ultra has a WR of 100m. I stand corrected.

For me, it was my first semester of university. I was infatuated with a woman who was a Computer Science student. I was an Electrical Engineering student. CS students had to take Pascal. Engineers had to take FORTRAN (with punch cards). In order to try to impress her, I had to learn Pascal while also trying to learn FORTRAN. She changed majors the next semester.

TL;DR - when I taught someone and did all her homework as well.
