You need to get an iOS app out yesterday. The UX/design world is filled with Apple loyalists.
Perhaps that is why it's not available on Mac.

Of course people can still rip it off an iPhone/iPad through the "analog hole" via the Lightning to 3.5mm adapter
Having a 7 yo and 4 yo, this completely tracks.

Nice work.
Are you suggesting Apple provided this program out of their good will? In a very real sense, were it not for the strength of EU as an economic block, this would not have happened.
Your interpretation is quit a bit more charitable than mine (pun not intended). I don't disagree with it and I guess it is really hard to judge motivations.

For me, the quota for benefit of the doubt has been mostly used up.
Listing always on display as just a software feature is odd. It’s very much a function of both software and hardware.

It requires new screens and display controllers that can refresh at much lower rates, and stronger guarantees of burn in prevention.

Like sure, you could do it on an older screen but you’d burn through battery much quicker and potentially damage the device in the process.

This is true for Android devices as well.
>> Is that easier or harder than getting the labels to just give you a special version with an extra channel for vocals?

Depends on the label and the artist. Could be easier, could be much harder. Sometimes multi-stems just don't exist anymore; were lost, have additional licensing issues; labels are a nightmare to deal with.
Hopefully you do not have many employees that are costing you $1m a year...
It seems like just regular old competition to me. Like lightbulb manufacturers pushing out big candle or automobiles pushing horse breeders out of business.

Who Moved My Cheese comes to mind.
It's not a single fucking source of truth since you need an oracle to go between the blockchain and the actual legal authorities to register ownership. You just have an entry in a ledger that says "X owns Y" with zero legal backing. I can take your money and give you a receipt but that doesn't mean anything if I don't have the authority to sell the thing.
Is it highly unethical? You're hired to do a job, if you can successfully do that job and another one, I don't think there is anything unethical about doing that. It's very common in lower wage positions, not sure why it's suddenly unethical in higher wage positions. I would say it's unethical to force people to sign a contract saying you own all of their attention during the day, even if you don't use it.
> there goes their livelihood until they line up another job.

This risk exists with any employment arrangement. So arguably the risk is merely the greater likelihood of the startup failing vs big corp laying you off.
I'm sorry, how is Indie and Open Source even a comparable trait? They're two different ways of defining something.

Do you have an example of this happening short of blatant asset flips?
I'm still struggling to understand it. The blockchain in this case _doesn't_ provide a single source of truth. As you yourself said, it can be invalidated or a legal system can override it. So I can't just "check the blockchain" and know the actual ownership. So aren't we just back to where we were but with an extra step of enriching some miners/stakers?
They really didn't. Hunter gatherer societies were the most democratic and egalitarian that we've ever had. Graeber's work on this is fantastic.
No they don't. Besides the obvious flaw of having to download and open an app to check if you're being tracked, they just don't work. They all have sub 2.5 ratings on the app store.

The only ones on that list that don't have terrible ratings are general bluetooth scanners and they don't tell you that you're being tracked, just that there's one nearby. Compare that to iPhones where you'll get a notification if one is following your movement, they're functionally useless if you don't think you're being tracked.
I've been sitting in the main menu for roughly an hour now just listening to the phenomenal music!
> Walkable / public transit-accessible housing is far more expensive than urban sprawl housing.

Not where I live? If you search Zillow for apartments below $1000/month and center the map on Philadelphia, you'll see some in the suburbs, but overwhelmingly they're in the city.
As a founder, it's true, if I can run a solo operation, I want to do that for as long as possible. New automatons like Stable Diffusion and ChatGPT enable that so they're great for me. Just the other day I asked ChatGPT to solve a particular programming problem for me and it did, all the while explaining what and why each line of code existed.

There seems to me to be a lot of moral panic in this thread, I don't think it's necessarily justified simply because people are annoyed at PG as a person or what he said specifically (about Marx or otherwise) or the way he phrased it, because the general idea he's writing about is completely true in my experience.
> Wise is not available for account setup in the vast majority of developing countries, so if that's your solution it's already a failure.

I was ranking options from worst to best. Best would be something like Wise. Second-best would be a stable coin from an issuer that isn't an outright fraud. And last would be any floating-rate coin.

Last year Bitcoin literally hit transaction fees of 20% of the GDP per capita of the worst-off countries and then fell 75% in value. I wouldn't wish a system like that on my worst enemies let alone of people I claim to be trying to help. It was massively outperformed by the Lira. I can't even find one that wasn't outperformed by the Lira. It may have been designed to meet this need but it utterly failed by any measure.

USDC is a strictly better option. And better than that would be a USDC like system that preserves privacy issued by a central bank.

> I'm not sure this argument still holds with all the defi options today.

Literally 10% of the entire TVL of DeFi was lost last year to hacks and shows somehow no sign of slowing down.

The real privilege is believing that poor folks are as risk tolerant as you are in a first-world country and that this is somehow a better solution than a nice home-grown payment network like M-PESA.

It’s like a cocaine-powered ruined fresco of the financial system.
Does it highlight the current word in the lyrics, or just the current line? The new Apple one looks like it's doing it word by word.

As a user/listener I don't really care. But the engineer in me is curious.
I guess I'm skeptical. This sounds more like an optimization of current technology than something along the lines of vacuum tubes -> transistors.
Heres a better summary, from the article: "Crisis measures could see streaming services and games consoles banned, Christmas lights turned off, and all sports stadiums and leisure facilities closed."

Emphasis on crisis. Also, I would assume, in this instance, that fuel prices will be exorbitant, so nonessential gas-powered journeys will be curtailed by default.
HN readers don't like low value joke / sarcastic comments.
As someone in Argentina, let me explain my situation:

As you pointed out, not many employers are willing to pay directly in crypto, that's why a lot of contractors - myself included - are willing to use platforms like Payoneer, Wise, even Paypal if there is no other option.

The missing part of the story here is how contractors in a developing country with currency controls, high inflation, poor banking infrastructure get the money -out- of those platforms. Most of the time you just cannot do it legally, so you end up "selling" your Wise/Payoneer/Paypal balance for the equivalent in the local currency. This is usually against their ToS and which can result in your account getting banned, losing access to your money (that's why it's advised to -not- leave any significant amount of money on these kind of platforms).

With crypto I also need to deal with black markets (which are always growing down here) and some business are starting to accept crypto directly (mostly tech-related busines). But, unlike these platforms, I actually have control over my money (it cannot be "confiscated" by my wallet unlike my Wise balance), fees are usually lower (ex. Payoneer results in a ~3.5% fee, Paypal ~10%, Wise ~1%, while in crypto - lets say BUSD - fees are mostly flat at around 1/2 USD at most), and market liquidity is higher (it's -a lot- easier to sell USDT/USDC/BUSD/DAI than your Paypal balance).
I wonder how they square steep increase in rental demand in NYC with decreasing occupancy rates.
CA authorities can set the date when the certificate was issued to any date they like, bypassing the "trusted until" mechanism. Such a CA can still issue any certificate they like, pass browser checks and do MitM. In this way you still trust them to sign the correct issue date while you want to distrust them. Isn't Mozilla's mechanism kind of weird by being not "too simple"?
I was disappointed the .stem format never worked out. I actually had high hopes for that.
It doesn't disagree with the OP. If the budget has not changed your millage rate should have gone down even if your property value goes up. Most likely your city hall did not adjust the millage rate down and used the extra assessment to pay down debt.

In my own city even though my millage rate is going down because of new developments going up it's being offset by values going up.

I'm very much anti-unionization, but don't really fall into any of those buckets. To be fair, I didn't take it to be an exhaustive list.

Basically, I'm opposed to unions as they exist in the US because of the government being involved and "artificially" granting them power.

I'd like to see what instruction could let ChatGPT output such invention.
"viewed as assets to buy and sell for a profit, and nothing more."

I'm not sure this act in itself is morally neutral, imo. There's reasons ethical concerns about objectification (in the older 'treating something/one as an object' formulation of it) pop up not-infrequently through time.

Reducing something to a market view of itself is a choice. Similarly, seeing something as being more complicated but turning away because 'it doesn't have to be'.

Now, I'm not trying to suggest you should take up my concerns here. I'm not saying "you're terrible for this!" in any way. It's just an interesting springboard of a question, what do we see as 'morally neutral' and what has moral salience?
Such a comparison certainly doesn't seem outlandish, as insane as it is to topple two iconic skyscrapers

Nope. I just searched for a counterpoint. It's usually helpful before I swallow anything whole.

My basic point is -- it's too goddamned early to draw any conclusions about Twitter. We're going to find data for one thing or against it, because this just happened, in effective terms, and nothing has shaken out yet.
I'm not sure why you're being downvoted. The error discredits the voice of the article.
>At what point has the virus mutated sufficiently so that I don't have an effective immune response?

I don't think anybody really knows, this is an active area of research. What is known is that, the more similar a virus is to something you already had, the more likely your immune system is to be able to respond quickly enough that you don't show any symptoms and don't even realize you were exposed. And if you do show symptoms, it'll be more likely that they will be much milder than for somebody who wasn't exposed previously to something similar.
The population is getting older partially because we've gotten a lot better at preventing people from dying. And the population is not getting smaller, but bigger. The population is growing and dying less.
It was not particularly to empathize with Imperial Japan of all places. Saying they didn't treat people kindly was the understatement of the (20th) century.

That's funny... within 5 seconds I searched for "Karaoke" and it is suspiciously not mentioned in the page.
Well, sure. But people are not programmed like that.

Sales people often can get up to or more than 50% of the profits (after all expenses) as commission. I've seen up to 80 or 90 percent for companies with extreme growth focus.

Programmers don't generate value directly the same way, but often you can attribute value to products they create and compensate them fairly.
I know complaining about the source is gauche but the Daily Mail should probably just be banned from HN. The actual draft "ban" on electric cars is a restriction on essential travel and is still only a proposal in case of massive electric shortages - the language translated;

> Shop opening hours must be reduced by 1-2 hours per day. Each store format can determine the time slot independently. If a company decides to close certain branches completely or to only open the shop on certain days, the number of closed hours will count towards the reduction in shop opening times for the entire branch network.

> Outside opening times, freezers must be covered with Styrofoam panels or night curtains.

> The commercial use of tumble dryers, irons and mangles is permitted for a maximum of eight hours per day. The use for institutions in the health care system such as hospitals, birth centers, medical practices as well as old people's and nursing homes is not restricted.

> If the heat in rooms is mainly generated by electrical energy (such as electric heaters and heat pumps), these rooms may be heated to a maximum of 18°C. This does not apply to rooms that are used for the treatment of patients in healthcare institutions such as hospitals, birth centers, medical practices, and old people’s and nursing homes.

> The operation of whirlpools, body tanning devices, saunas, infrared cabins, steam baths, massage chairs and other electrically operated wellness facilities in the commercial sector is permitted for a maximum of seven hours per day.

> The private use of electric cars is only permitted for absolutely necessary journeys (e.g. professional practice, shopping, visiting the doctor, attending religious events, attending court hearings).

There is a big push in Ottawa, Canada to get govt workers back on the road and into buildings. Downtown businesses (restaurants, etc) are pushing for it and the govt is doing its best to cooperate with them. They are slowly moving the needle on how many days an employee needs to show up. Many are accepting it because its a low number of days per month (like 2) right now. But basically its the boil a frog strategy. There is a pro-downtown bias going on here and even if local govt does not help the Federal govt will. Zero consideration for sub-urban businesses.
The underlying idea of the right to repair program is for companies to start designing their stuff with self-repair in mind. It's not only about making spare parts available. So that you don't need hundreds of dollars of equipment to open up your phone. Then the whole buying/rental thing is a non-issue because all you'll need is a Philips #0. Or torx even (I love torx because it doesn't skip and damage the screw head)

Fairphone for example does a great job showing us what what would look like.

But this is the criticism I have with Apple's program. Technically they comply here but not in spirit. It's clear to me they don't actually want this to happen. They didn't invent pentalobe because it looks cool like a little flower. But to keep people out.

Of course existing products can't be improved but upcoming products should take be easier to repair.
What's so nice about having low capacity oil wells operating inside city limits?
It's interesting that OpenAI slow-rolled the release of some of their other projects due to a worry that they'd cause harm in the wrong hands, but seems to have just let ChatGPT rip. I don't think "makes it easy to pollute StackOverflow" rises to the level of a serious enough harm to justify keeping the tech locked away, but it's interesting that we're at least starting to get a glimpse of actual harms.
We don't teach pass by reference these days.

Anyone you find in the real world under ~30 years old may not even be aware that you can pass a reference and modify it directly without having to make a method return a value.

It's super cool to have someone explain to you side effects yet you show them a method with a null return and run it for them showing that the value has changed and they are mesmerized.

Not quite true. I went to AUS a couple of years ago with a pocket knife, at one point I took it out to cut something and someone mentioned to me that a knife like that was illegal in AUS so I had to keep it hidden in the hotel the rest of the trip.
This is because their is a federal law that says gun companies aren't liable. Prior to the passing of this law, the NRA argued that without it, gun companies would all go out of business because they'd be sued into oblivion.

They don't state anything explicitly referring to real-time processing of the songs.

As a matter of fact, calling out "millions of songs in the Apple Music catalog" actually makes it seem like the adjustable vocals will only be available on certain songs that they've added support for.
3D games don't involve on-device ML.

It definitely is more emergent than most games once you get past the early stage.

A few examples to make that clear:

- to get petroleum, you have to refine crude oil. There is a building that does that, but you only get 50% of the mass out. On the other hand, if you boil it yourself (raise its temperature to 402°C), you get 100% of the mass. Cue furious designing of an efficient boiler. Then you gotta figure how to efficiently burn it to get water out to produce more crude oil.

- if you think that's cute, you can instead continue the boiling to 510°C and get Sour Gas. Then you freeze it to -162°C (not an easy task) and get Methane. Heat it up again and you get Natural Gas that you can burn for power. That comes out to 6X the power of the previous petroleum boiling.

- you have some salt water provided by a geyser (an infinite source at a fixed output). You can use a building to get water out. But that means Dupes have to operate it. What if instead you boil that salt water to get steam, then cool that steam back to get water in a fully automated setup? Turns out it can be more power-efficient too!

Oxygen Not Included is filled with unexpected behaviors, way more than meet the eye (there is a dedicated wiki page, which is lengthy but still far from complete) that enables to make all sort of crazy contraptions.

I prefer to consider Oxygen Not Included as 2 separate games : the survival game you get at the beginning, and the engineering game you get once you overcome the survival issues. Unfortunately, many people drop off before reaching the engineering stage, or don't expect it and drop off because they only wanted the survival part.
If it's realtime, and you are mixing vocals and other separated tracks back together on-the-fly, the actual separations don't need to be _super_ hiqh quality, as the mixing will mask most deficiencies.

The reason I say that is because I suspect they are doing this with a neural net.
