People, especially when looked at them in general, it turns out, don't care about general principles. (And sort of rightfully so, because in the last thousands of years almost literally all questions of importance were not questions of principle. Which noblehouse should give the new king? None!? Yeah, that's not a good option. And so on.)

Software and these hyperglobal platforms are where principles actually start to matter. (It did not matter even in politics. In principle free speech, sure, but also no generated kiddie porn, because ew. And it did not matter, but suddenly with the capability to force CSAM-detection on the world, we would think it now starts to matter, but no, people in general never heard about this, have no idea about this, and so on.)

So with that long intro, it turns out that if enough people want Fortnite on their iThing, or want to repair their tractor or car ... that can force some principles, and that's when people will suddenly care about "my device my blablabla".
apps usually introduce requirements based on software versions, which eventually will exclude hardware
I have come across Smithsonian Institute before [1] (unfortunately). I'm sure white supremacy is also defined by being healthy, having good money management, etc. Everything held up by white Western culture must be purged.

I've worked with a number of young black adults for example that have said (paraphrasing) "this work is too hard, where I am from we do not work this hard". My response is always something like "the greater the work, the greater the reward".

According to DEI, what I should have done is made the work easier/irrelevant for them, and then balanced out the end result (probably by degrading the work of others).

But being a white supremacist, I made them work hard, and they got a great end result. Afterwards they thanked me for pushing them and they were (rightfully) proud of what they had achieved. It had value because it was not easy to obtain.

Welcome to hackernews, we're happy to have you! HN will very rarely put a video longer than couple minutes on the front page, nobody is going to watch something and then come back after and upvote it, and once it's burried, it's not going forward to the front page. Videos are generally better served in the comment section unless they're short. You're right in that HN enjoyes things that make you go "hmmmm, weird but cool" and this video is a prime example of that, it's just too long as a video. Keep on contributing! Looking forward to seeing you around.
No, it is productivity. You're talking about how hard it is to measure productivity in some jobs. Not whether or not productivity is valuable.
> and I can't put a turbo on a 2CV and expect to use it on the motorway now.

Well, actually, I remember being passed on the autobahn by 2CV going well over 200 km/h. That was quite a shocker.
I really like these kind of puzzle games. It's always so satisfying building up a kind of "intuition" on how to solve them, learn the patterns etc.

Well done on "finishing" it. Your story is a typical one, myself being guilty of it: Going too grand in the beginning, and never getting anything viable out. Focusing on the core gameplay, even if "only js+canvas" with no fancy 3d graphics etc is the right start.
You have chosen one property of the iPhone and elevated it to the primary reason why people buy that device, which is entirely disingenuous as clearly people are forced to make tradeoffs in their purchases and nearly 100% of people might despise having locked down devices and yet still buy an iPhone if other things are more important to them... and there are definitely a ton of things the iPhone gets right--both in its hardware and its software--despite* this one glaring thing it gets wrong.

Almost everyone I know owns an iPhone... and yet, almost all of them wanted a more open device and bought an iPhone anyway because it has a longer serviceable lifetime (due to software updates for a longer period of time), has a pervasive brick and mortar storefront that sells accessories, lets them use AirPods, has one of the best cameras on a mobile phone (and here it is maybe-interesting to note that Samsung devices are also pretty damned well locked down: you sideload a browser, sure, but you can't get filesystem access or modify any of its stock behaviors)... I could keep going, as Apple is actually an extremely competent company that has built a great product!

And yet, those people, when given the chance, were all very excited to jailbreak their phones to get more features. The people who are not technical has their technical friends do it for them. The people who did not have technical friends who wanted to deal with that much effort bring their phones to the little shops which do it for you. At its peak, despite being pretty hard to do, difficult to maintain, and complicated to take advantage of, we had more than 10% of people with an iPhone jailbreaking! That is an insane number of people to just write off :/.

Looks like the Piper M600, Daher TBM 940, and Cirrus Vision all have auto-land capabilities through the Garmin G3000 system. But it doesn’t seem to be as sophisticated as what is described for the airliners. It’s more of an emergency system.
A lot of people are still writing raw JS code, including me, because the tooling around this is way more lightweight and straightforward, or because of over things.

But yeah, as a preprocessing step, I'd argue a linter rule would be one of the best way to handle such a quirk if you are using bare JS (or TypeScript, which inherits this quirk, by the way)
i have to admit, i completely read that as "employee".... though i wonder if the op also meant that...?
I gotta disagree with this author on the whole "no intrinsic value" thing when it comes to crypto. Sure, it's true that cryptocurrencies aren't physical assets like gold or silver, but that doesn't mean they don't have value. People are willing to pay money for them, which gives them value. It's supply and demand, plain and simple. Plus, with blockchain technology, crypto is much more secure and transparent compared to traditional forms of currency. So don't be so quick to dismiss it as just entries in a database created out of thin air. There's definitely more to it than that.
Uh? All browsers besides chrome come with ad blocking capabilities, some of them built-in. I use safari with adguard on my iphone and I don't see ads ever either.

I do a lot of web browsing on my iphone and if I couldn't block ads I wouldn't have bought one.
That was a good video! It sounds reasonable, haha :) The other videos...other reports...have not been analysed to insignificance, however. At the same time, it raises the question: why would the DoD permit people to get all in a huff in confusion about this, when it was just (possibly) BS? That sounds really deceptive of them. Shame! To preserve their credibility on this topic and not come across as willingly encouraging public deception (which completely belies the public statements and sentiments of various offices about this about "getting to the bottom of it" and "public transparency"), they should have been unequivocal that this was nothing. Sad that they haven't (that I've seen).

Thank you for informing me of this valuable analysis. I think any serious Navy aviator / navigator who looked at this could easily perform the same simple math. If these folk are not denouncing clearly some of these videos, or at least publicising alternate theories for those where alternate theories reasonably exist...it smells bad for the credibility of the enterprise.

Unless the analyst from that video is completely self-servingly misrepresenting what the radar metrics mean...How to corroborate their interpretation of those numbers? Important question.
> what kind of inane line of questioning is that

A very pertinent one. The comment you responded to talked about how aviation achieves their stellar safety record. You told us that in your other industry (now we know it is mining) things are done differently. So it is fair to ask: How is that going for you? What are the results? Are you safer or less safe than aviation?
Emirates, no accidents? I would say this one (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emirates_Flight_521) definitely qualifies as an accident, although the only fatality was an unfortunate firefighter...

How is this different from image captioning when the model used is a booru model? That's already a thing people do with making their training data for fine tuning these models.

Yep. Price tag too high for basically a gimmick. I'm not seeing how a 70 mAh battery can do meaninful activities with so many power-draining modules around. Might last 30 minutes, 60 at most without needed to recharge again.

Would prefer the clip-on module for existing glasses and get extra battery life, perhaps more vision angle since the monocle seems to cut 30% of the vision field.
If I replace one staff member out of two with a machine that does half their work for them, that doesn't mean the other staff member gets a doubled salary.

This is why we don't say a software engineer writing an website should get paid all the money that it would've cost to build and run a data centre for the website, but didn't have to because you used the cloud.
Thank you for sharing this paper, it is an interesting topic.
I started training with kettlebells to build up some strenth, which went fairly well. My workouts are extremely short, 10 snatches per side, sometimes a couple more exercises. Also, from time to time, some planks. But always below 5 minutes.

With the start of COVID, I started cycling way more, mainly touring on the weekend for 3-5 hours. Since cardio / endurance has been my primary concern, I drastically reduced my kettlebell training to one session every 6 weeks, but its still enough to maintain my 10 snatches.

I can really recommend the kettlebells, but be careful since you can quite injure yourself with the weight. I started with 16kg, which IMHO is a great starting weight for men.

FYI I am in my mid forties, overweight but now quite fit.

The primary "new features" of a new browser release are (A) security fixes and (B) support for new web standards, which websites will adopt. If you are not a security expert or a web developer, how are you supposed to judge whether these new features are something you want to upgrade for? You probably won't even know that you're missing these new features-- if you wait long enough to upgrade, you might fall victim to a long patched vulnerability or your web experience will start to break in subtle ways. This isn't a flaw of the web but a feature, we (the web developer community) have fought long and hard for the browser developers to stay up to date with the web's changing feature set so that we have less of a "feature window" to target.
Where I live, a new AAA game costs 80 CHF/USD and sometimes even over 90 CHF/USD. I really wonder who actually pays those prices for games. You could buy a whole spare console after only 4–5 games.
You must be living in a different world. I know exactly zero people with a salary over 20M, other than maybe the CIO, and probably because he migrated from the US and kept whatever compensation they gave him there (plus the expat bonus).

My starting salary was 2.1M yen in Japan, and until my current position never breached 5.5M
My parents are not technical, I don't want to have to worry about their phones or computers, so they use iphones and ipads, and I have a pi-hole connected to their router that clears away most ads.

They like going to the app store and knowing there is at least some level of curation on the apps. If they suddenly have to start dealing with competing app stores and sideloading and menus and all that stuff their experience will undoubtedly be worse for it.

> You mean Google will deliver a better browser than what currently iOS users have to the point that iOS users will decide to move away from the default

No, I mean that Google will use their search monopoly, along with their dominant position across other product areas to undercut the market share of any competing browser. Any merit Chrome has is dwarfed by the strength of Google’s ability to push it on users.

I have many complaints about Apple’s handling of iOS. But it seems to me that their stance on iOS browsers is the only thing preventing the web from becoming a Blink rendering engine monoculture.

I don’t like Apple’s approach. But I’m also concerned about the prospect of a Blink-only future.
> Don't get me wrong, a really well-written PWA with fully cached assets is often almost at a native app experience level

And what would those be? When this question is asked, people inevitably bring up Twitter as the shining example. And it's just horrendously bad.

And how will they do it without first addressing the vendor lock-in issue?
According to Mozilla only like a third of all Firefox users have installed any add-on at all. So multiply the number by 150% and you have the highest possible Firefox usage rate.
> In a market economy, that would lead to workers-owned companies, so the people deciding salaries and compensations would be the employees.

This seems to make no sense - managers and C suite are employees already, and they decide salaries.

But more generally: what is the actual way they should reward work?

I.e. if you just pay everyone the same, what happens to your company if another company that pays based on value decides to hire all your top employees at 20% more?
> wait until you hear about managers.

You're assuming that I've never really worked anywhere with managers, good or otherwise.

> Most managers don't document anything

yup, and they are insufferable dicks for not doing it. But, in big companies you need to have presence, so managers that are successful tend to have a documented paper trail of "their" successes. Whether its useful documentation is very much another matter.

> Most managers out there are redundant and have no idea about what leadership is.

There are two issues here, lets do leadership first. Yes, leadership is not taught properly, and that annoys me greatly. Leadership can be taught, and its not to challenging to do. But on the flip side, leadership isn't just about keeping people happy, its about taking hard decisions and getting people to understand what they need to do.

Again, there are lots of bad examples out there.

Now as for redundant, if that was really the case, and that most manager are redundant, then surely they are ripe for "cost savings"? After all capitalism is mostly ruthless when it comes to staff costs.

The problem is that good managers increase productivity. However what "good" is can depend on where you sit on the hierarchy. If your CEO/CTO only talks to managers, then your manager controls the information flow. this is a company culture thing, and is closely coupled to how managers are expected react.

> The reason hackathons produce amazing results is because[..]

...of exposure bias. There are loads of ideas in hackathons, and lots of them are shite. But! the ones you remember are good, thus there appears to be a great signal to noise ratio. I've organised and participated in loads, they are good fun. But you can't run a company permanently in hackathon mode.
That would be cool... except that Apple in fact approves intrusive monitoring apps--hell: they even have an Enterprise program that lets companies build apps for their employees that don't require App Store approval!--and then makes it so that not only can they be installed but the device is so locked down that you can't tamper with them, via Mobile Device Management.

> And iOS makes up 18% of web traffic. That’s a lot, but it means 82% can use the browser they want at any time.

The hard truth is that 18% of traffic is probably 50% of the money.

In developed countries it's probably 75%-80% of the money.

There's no mention of widows or orphans on that page. But presumably the Knuth-Plass algorithm is aware of those and take them into account when breaking lines?

One thing I've often wondered is whether these algorithms treat a page break from even to odd differently from a page break from odd to even: it could make sense to do so, I think, in the case of an ordinary book, particularly when it comes to placing an illustration or table, but perhaps also for widows and orphans.
Pretty. Keyboard shortcuts would be a nice addition.
The medical licensing body is making the market in surgeons. Their interest is in keeping wages high and supply low. In fact, “making the market” is not even the right analogy - the licensing body is the sole supplier of surgeons.

Nobody is making the market in game devs, so market wages prevail. Gaming happens to be the world’s most popular form of entertainment so it’s not surprising that more people want to be game devs than say write ERP software.

There are also way fewer game dev jobs than there are general dev jobs. This isn’t rocket science.

Currently it's the washing machine that just ... doesn't work occasionally. Power is good to it, confirmed with an electrician but it won't turn on. Give it a bit and it works. Prior it was phones having software issues but that was more than a few years ago at this point so I don't remember specifics.

The problem with great managers is that you don't notice them. Things just work, no drama, no fires to extinguish, ... . It's also not clear why things are going that smooth, it just seems to work that way (clue: it's actually the manager that creates this environment).

I've worked in a few environments where managers were replaced. Only then can you really make the distinction between great managers and bad ones. With one you think "wow this is such a tough business, the manager is doing crazy effort to keep things going", and then another manager jumps in and "wow, this is an easy project. Manager is taking a walk through the park. All seems like a piece of cake."

> Southwest plane was above V0 and couldn't abort

It's up to investigators to find out. Pilots definitely can (and have the right to) abort after V1, if they consider it safer than taking off. Before V1, you can be sure that abort is safe, after V1, you have to weigh risks of high-speed abort against risks of continuing flying, but staying on the ground is still possible.

Yes, and nitpicking - decision speed is V1, not V0.

> Yet you see folks in her dismiss any arguments against DEI as boogeyman of right-wing pundits.

I don't know how "right-wing" became a slur, but it's unhealthy for people to hold their opposition with such low regard.

Progressive politics (typically left-leaning) is the idea of making "progress" (read: change), so most issues raised if not implemented or occurring already, will occur in the near future.

Conservative politics (typically right-leaning) is the idea of conserving the current way of life, but they are rarely successful and only serve to slow down policies. Conservatism for the most part is a mostly liberal position. Most honest people would agree there is a great advantage to making change slowly and carefully - all the longest living institutions (up until recently) survived by doing this.

The problem in the US is that conservatism is also conflated with lots of other random ideas, like religion and right-wing policies (anti-abortion, anti-LGBT, etc). There's no way to vote for the parts you like without voting for the parts you don't like.
How does DNS give you more control than BGP?

One is an actual routing system that tells routers where to send data, the other is a name translation system with multiple layers of caches outside of your control.

DNS is a layer above as BGP is still used to actually navigate to the listed IP, and any large CDN will own that IP space and announce their own routes anyway.
