1. They probably get their fasting rewards if they do bad things at night, but they still got sins from doing that bad things at night. Its just that if you do it during the day it invalidates your fasting rewards and all you get is hunger and thirst.

2. Dinner party is a cultural thing, because we didn’t eat during the day and we have the same time to break fast, it became a party because everyone do it at the same time and usually at the same place. But the day of breaking fast (the Eid Iftar), you are supposed to eat in the morning to declare that Ramadan has ended and you can continue eat at day.

3. Another cultural things. Here, it happens few days before the end of Ramadan. The government mandates company to pay bonus during religious celebrations (christmas for christians, eid iftar for moslem, chinese new year for chinese, etc).

> we can’t do [evil and/or privacy invading feature]. It’s against the App Store rules.

The App Store rules from before sideloading exists will still apply after sideloading exists. Nothing has changed, other than the fact that people could choose to bypass the App Store, and in practice every major app still wants to be on the App Store for maximum convenience.

To wit, sideloading has existed on Android for ages, and nearly all apps still want to be on the Play Store.

People should be allowed to do what they want with their own devices. If you own an iPhone, you deserve to be able to install whatever software you want on your iPhone, end of story.
Very insightful! I agree that the models on their own may truly be simulating awareness of certain concepts, and not "directly" modeling them. It's hard to know, but these kinds of experiments do make it clear that there are profound limits to the current systems. For instance, even if they are superhuman polyglot poets they may not have any model of "time" (ironically, the most commonly used word in many languages).

The problem with serverless is that the failure mode for traffic spikes is either "shockingly high bill" or "stops serving requests".

For high, sustained load, a running server is always cheaper, the cost is predictable, and the failure mode is usually "serving requests much more slowly".

Agree with all of this.

I hate running. Cardio is my weakpoint in general. I enjoy cycling, but only with a purpose, like if I go from A to B to pick something up.

I would also say though that personally, I find going to work and doing the 9-5 way way harder than going to the gym.

My main source of confusion in life is that maximising money (not just having enough to survive but actively maximising it and giving up all of your time in order to do so) is standard, but maximising health is just like, I mean whatever, maybe.

I feel like you could give most people ten million dollars and they still wouldn't get in shape.
I like the phrase “de-facto regulatory power.” Not only is it the case that we don’t have to deal with annoying stuff like “enable the facebook store to download our app,” that is, poorly behaving apps in non-official stores. It also takes away one of bluffs that Facebook and friends could make. They don’t even have the ability to say “Apple, make your rules more permissive or I’ll open up a Facebook store.” They don’t even get to negotiate. It is great.

If alternative app stores were allowed, I’d probably download a GNU iOS store. But that’s about it, and it just isn’t worth it.
I knew 3G was carrier dependent but had always seen LTE as 1428 https://customer.cradlepoint.com/s/article/how-to-determine-.... Could well not be the case though, I definitely haven't played with every combination of carrier, plan type, and modem. PCO does allow the carrier to push the supported MTU to a client so maybe that's what's happening here just up instead of down.
I mean, let’s go past “Program Files” to “Program Files (x86)” which has both spaces and special characters, and which was moved from the former.

Hi. I’m the author. First off, happy to hear you find that refreshing - it’s a really nice compliment to hear!

I, like you, hate blanket statements. Perhaps I should I’ve emphasized a newbie like me in that sentence? I really knew next to nothing about how web development, and specifically serving your site from a server, works.
The first facebook issue that you mention is unrelated to the App Store, it’s an OS restriction. Side loading won’t affect this.

Apple can clearly make the OS secure/privacy friendly if they want to. The only layer of security that you may lose is the dubious “review” process, which clearly doesn’t do anything considering the amount of scam apps on the store.

"and tell other people"

Nobody cares enough to go tell other people. Just try to picture the super awkward conversation between executives about and IC who resigned and then did noting during the notice period. In fact, they'd probably do the same.
Religion-related topics are not anathema here, although religious flamewar is, and of course it's not easy to keep the two separate. Religion has been (and is) such a big part of humanity that it would be inconsistent with HN's core value of intellectual curiosity to try to declare it all off topic (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&sor...).

p.s. Please let's not go into name-calling like "fruit-cakery". You can make your substantive points without that!
Recruiters don’t like people who want >2 weeks because it adds risk that you will renege on the deal, which means they lose out on their payday. But the recruiter isn’t the other party in the negotiation, the hiring manager is.

So don’t negotiate start date until you have an offer and are talking to the hiring manager. Save it to the end and you can say “well, I’m still not 100% sure about this offer, but I think this would work if you could push my start date out a bit…”

It uses a solid-state electrolyte which is probably big reason for capacity increase. It is the flammable liquid electrolyte that causes fires in lithium ion batteries. Solid-state electrolyte shouldn’t be flammable, that is main reason people have been researching solid-state electrolytes.
Apple can and has threatened to pull apps from the store for unscrupulous behavior. Absolutely no one is claiming that the app store itself provides protection. It's the fact that Apple can decide who gets to publish on a device that over a billion people use.

I'm also not really sure how OS level protections would prevent an app from sending out data it shouldn't. Apple is acting as a regulator here because no one else is.
At this point, Musk is like someone who keeps getting up from the dinner table, stabbing a guest, and then trying to take it back once he realizes they're leaving.

Windows broke. Programs broke. The registry broke. Special characters work well enough, but never use them in standard directory paths.

If you want your folder to be written correctly in your own language, you can use desktop.ini to correct the name of the folder in Windows Explorer:

[.ShellClassInfo]
LocalizedResourceName=Fàñćŷ Näm̀é

Put that into a desktop.ini file, assign it the right attributes (`attrib +S +H desktop.ini`) and your folder will look right in any program that uses the shell API without any risk of breaking programs.
Unity is a bad alternative because it requires programming. It's also much more complex since it's a game engine, not a scriptable vector animation thing.

With Flash, you could just follow some tutorials and make something nice in no time, fully understanding what you're doing.

Flash didn't "lean into" Flex. Flex was an Eclipse-based IDE and a set of libraries that some people used for some projects. It was specifically aimed at building apps. There were layouts, controls and all that. There was a list view with cell reuse, in 2008! It was much more like Android layout system then what the web had and still has. Flex was a tool that's very good for some jobs and completely unfit for others — like any other tool, really.
In the late 1990s, there was a bug in MS IIS where if you requested http://example.com/page.php , it would execute the PHP script, but if you requested http://example.com/page.php: , it would give you the PHP source code. Even more than today, it was common to hard-code database connection details, including passwords, into the source code.
I totally agree with this concern as things stand.

But it's also been apparent that relying on code auditing wasn't going to be sustainable long term. The real answer is for Apple to beef up their sandboxing to prevent things like cross app tracking, coercing permissions from users, etc - independent of the app store review process or policies.

This is what the Libre Android distributions (eg GrapheneOS, CalyxOS) have been (slowly) converging on.
Slightly non-sequitur. The best thing that I ever did for my body wrt/ having a desk job is making sure that wherever I am my monitor is at eye level and at least 2ft away from my face.

Depends on the phone. On a Symbian, you just downloaded a SIS file; later versions required code signing. Afaik, WinCE and Palm phones were similar. I had some java capable feature phones that were similar, put together a jad file and hope that write once, run everywhere works (I remember my first phone had some features that used a J2ME standard interface exactly backwards; turn on backlight would turn it off, and vice versa). I didn't even select those two phones for their openness, I just had them and tried to write/run code and it was available.

Certainly, the carriers had stores, but it's not like they had software I wanted to run.
The part where the employee has self-selected themselves as a risk. Lots of the major companies have capability to identify when an employee is downloading tons of data and files, but for the less sophisticated ones, you pretty much just have to look out for motive, and an employee giving notice is probably disgruntled...which is at least a little bit of motive.

I wish you luck with your business idea
I had 12 years of pre-college education, 4 for university, 2 for Masters and 2 years of classes in my PhD ( I am candidate now) and I think I had exams while I was fasting in each year and it wasn't a big deal. I rarely even see a Muslim student break fast for exams. And I think people saying they request accommodation this week, that's usually because of Eid and the couple of nights before that we believe it is the night that quran was revealed to the prophet Mohamed, so people want to pray more at night (it is a probability not specific night from 21,23,25,27 and 29 of Ramadan)
Humans are hilariously fallible.

I find it interesting that , somehow, preparing for Lent, a time to eat simply and consider the elevation of your soul, became Mardi Gras, an excuse to let it all rip.
No one ideally, but in the real world someone is going to be. It's considered basically accepted by governments, just don't get caught.

That being said, it's interesting that a lot of the China vs US heat started ramping up right when China rounded up a bunch of CIA assets in the country. It's arguable from a game theory perspective that everyone's better off with a bunch of spying so everyone knows what's really going on in a country. Transparency is usually considered good in other areas. I can't see why that wouldn't apply here.

It's also worth pointing out that by and large, it's very likely the important programs aren't spying on day to day citizens, especially as the war on terror has faded. They're just not that important, and it's riskier. It's economic, military, and political espionage.
Uh... You can escape these sequences. But the escape character isn't the backslash for obvious reasons (it's the path separator). It's the backtick.

Company, for the better or the worse, is usually oriented towards benefits of shareholders, not users, customers nor societies. Don't get me wrong, there are companies that are not evil. But how do we know which are?
Luckily, we have laws that prevent escalation beyond certain norms and protect those, who are not shareholders.
I always thought they meant namespace. In a weird, indirect way, they did!
I completely disagree. in the long run, a company is not going to remember you gave them a lot of notice before leaving. your coworkers aren't likely to remember either, at least in terms of your ability to get references.

at the same time giving a long notice has a lot of downsides. your offer can get rescinded and now you are either jobless or have a very awkward conversation. your managers in this time will not respect your time, they will pile on all the work no one else wanted. 'lets put so and so on call, they are leaving in a month anyways'.
I'd qualify that as "almost no non-programmers know". Forward slashes are so useful in languages that use \ as an escape sequence that most programmers do know this.
> Just because LLM can generate text doesn't mean generating text is useless. Namely, it helps thinking.

This doesn’t disprove that many degrees are profit-driven. Those are bound to have dumb assignments that even an LLM can complete.

I wonder if you ever heard of incentives in society. Incentives can be misaligned.
I know now :)
No, no, no, no a billion times no to this absolutely not no

The moment you give your resignation, there are good odds your company will say "we accept your resignation effective immediately. Goodbye." Sometimes it's a blanket company policy to do this, sometimes it's because they know you're going to a competitor and they don't want you to start training for your new job, sometimes they were on the fence about you staying anyways.

Do not do this ever end. There is a significant chance you will be instantly fired with no income for months. Don't.

> It's a much longer trend than 2012-2016

2012-2016 is not the period of warming, it is the period from which the warming trend changed into a cooling trend. Seen over the last century the warming trend is far longer, the most recent one starting somewhere in the beginning of the 70's until the mentioned 2012-2016 frame. After that a slight cooling period followed, taking down the temperature by 0.06°C/yr until 2022. 2022 was another warm year so if 2023 will be warm as well the cooling trend is most likely broken. These sort-time variations are not significant when discussing 'climate' - roughly defined as 'the weather trends over at least a 30 yr stretch' - but they do control what makes the news.

One question: why do you state is is ´conservatives' who claim that the warming trend was broken? You don't know whether those people were conservatives nor do I. It does not make sense - and is extremely counterproductive - to equate a person's stance on single issues like 'climate change' with their political affiliation since these issues should not in any way be connected to political ideology. If they are connected they are by definition suspect since ideology trumps objective reasoning. Either the climate changes - and it does, no question there - or it does not, independent on whether you or I vote for whatever party we choose. Allowing ideology to taint the discussion just turns off a large part of the populace no matter which ideology it happens to be. It is just plain stupid for climate change to be a 'progressive' cause, crime reduction to be a 'conservative' cause, etc. These issues should be pulled out of the ideological realm so that they can be discussed by everyone without accusations of -isms by 'either' side.

One possible reason would be: you want to do something else because you are bored (ex: you are tired of transforming baroque rules designed by bussines analysts into code) and you don't work in a company where you can transfer laterally.
Generalizing is perfectly ok. Having to wrap statements with terms like "almost all" or "most" adds unnecessary noise, outside of academia.

I have always found Qt licensing to be almost designed to be as confusing as possible. Unless you deal with Qt on a daily basis it could take weeks to understand what this article lays out clearly in one page. I've always considered the framework to be something "radioactive" to be avoided due to this issue.

> The occupation of Ukraine signals Russia's intention to do the same with other countries they occupied in the past (Poland, Romania, the Baltic countries, &c) which are now part of NATO.

None of those countries have ever been officially mentioned as the "red line" by Russia, except Ukraine. Article 5 doesn't apply to Ukraine, and it doesn't allow for preventive military measures on non-alliance territories just because "there's a signal" somewhere outside.
I mean its still our choices whether to fast and hold our urge to eat even when we needed it the most (hot day, tired).

The same that its our choices whether to hold our anger and resolve things peacefully and objectively (someone messed up at work, we have the power to blame and fire them).

Ramadan fasting is just a part of islamic practice, just doing Ramadan fasting might not give any virtues. But Islam also teaches to treat everyone objectively, be patient, hold anger, etc.
