World Chase Tag has solved this by broadcasting exclusively on ESPN after a slight delay, and then uploading the matches to their own website and to YouTube for free after a slightly longer delay. But they're still in the position of growing their audience, so the free content (and full back catalogue on YouTube) is important. That marketing position might change in time.

Thank you, that is a very accurate description of how I operate. If you don't mind, I'll steal this phrase from you. :)
I've been a subscriber to basically everything for years. The only reason I haven't cancelled 90% of them is because my retired parents use my accounts. I almost never use the streaming services they use (I use YouTube Premium _a lot_, but I don't share that).

Given our combined minor usage, the day they lock one of us out it's all over, I'm cancelling them all!

I don't invest in streaming produced series any more as they have a tendency to want to eat their cake and have it too. They won't tie up a series but don't commit to producing a second one to tie it up, then arbitrary cancel them. It's like reading The Hobbit and the last two chapters are missing, never to be written, and there are plenty of actually finished books out there!
Revenue doesn't matter. It's not a real competitor to NVIDIA or AMD for consumers until it can run most non-casual / AAA titles _well_, and can dip into the huge PC back catalog. Gaming on macOS is still severely limited.
This is such a lame trope, and if you just repeat it without even considering its (biased) basis it does not make it better.

As a proxy for "bureaucracy": Government effectiveness - Country rankings -- https://www.theglobaleconomy.com/rankings/wb_government_effe...

(US: 25, Germany: 26 - of 192)

There are many, many countries with far worse and far less effective bureaucracy. In that list, the US is just one place above Germany, and as someone who has lived in the US for almost a decade, I had exactly that impression too.

Anyone who thinks Germany is the example for bad bureaucracy needs to get out more, into the world, not just into the one or two dozen best places.
When most people mention gaming on Apple, they're probably talking about full AAA games on their Macs, not candy crusher clone #9001 on their iPhone.
> and used scrcpy to show a fat middle finger to Google

Unfortunately Google has the last laugh here, because since Android 12 even scrcpy can no longer bypass FLAG_SECURE. Currently you'd have to start messing about with root and using some sort of Xposed and/or Magisk (?) module to disable FLAG_SECURE in order to be able to mirror that kind of apps with scrcpy again.
Downvote is for using "woke" as a slur.
To apologise for such a unidimensional interpretation of intelligence? Maybe they harness their intelligence to survival in their environment. What would the measure of such an intelligence be? What if you've never been posed a logical puzzle before, or even had a written language, just oral tradition. Are we saying that the western definition of intelligence discounts all other forms of mentation and application of that mentation to significant survival advantage? Perhaps these people score low on "curiosity" rather than intelligence per se? How do we even define intelligence in these discussions? Is Elon Musk intelligent? By some measures, clearly yes. By others, clearly not. What is the point of these discussions of not to partition the room? Personally, I'd like to see a broad-spectrum array of measures relating to different modes of mentation. Then we may be able to get somewhere. Until then, whenever I see a discussion mentioning "whites", "blacks", "Asians", "Africans" as if these are a homogenous mass (which is utterly ludicrous), then I'll continue to suspect ulterior motives.
They probably also fingerprint devices as well and correlate those times the devices are in the same area, etc. With user agents/device IDs, IPs and time you can work out quite a few relationships.
I do it regularly but it's always invisible if all you see is the resulting code.

I do it to structure my code, but I remove the comments as I implement it because I try to make it obvious in the code what's being done. You know, regular good programming, pick good names, keep the code reasonably short, add comments when needed, etc.

The same way you won't see the detailed outline of a writing once it has been written. Yet, the author likely started with an outline.
I understand this and will grant you that. But I'd bet a fair chunk of cash on this password sharing being something other than spouses sharing or running a de facto family account.

I mean: fine, Netflix sux, etc, tt's not worth $X. All fine.

But what's happening here is not that and you all know it. It's easy and cheap to just share passwords. When you do that, you're saying that I should pick up the bill for you. And my answer to you is: tf I'm not! You pay for you, I pay for me.
To be fair, you could probably run a local cache. There's no point in re-rendering a page that is expected to change at most once every minute at every single request during a hug of death type scenario.

> Complete noob, stupid question re keyloggers: when YubiKey inserts its token doesn't it go through the same mechanism as keyboard entry?

It only uses the keyboard in the OTP mode[1] (which you don't have to use, and you can even configure to completely disable). I guess OTP mode is probably the one you were thinking of ?

To be honest other than the Yubico demo website, I've never come across a resource in the wild that uses Yubikey OTP mode login anyway. :)

I'm not familiar with the technicalities of OTP mode but I'm guessing its resilient to replay attacks, so key loggers could still be limited that way.

For all other modes (PIV, FIDO, PGP) it doesn't.

I believe there is an option to store a static string in the Yubikey and replay that on-demand when you touch it ... but, well, I'd say you're on your own if you choose that option !

It's often of poor quality and not in 4k. I rented a movie from YouTube the other day and the stream supported HDR, and if I had a 5.1 surround that would have worked, too!

If you're not watching 4 hours of TV per day it's not that expensive to rent content, but I'm saying this from the point of a westerner. For other parts of the world a $5 USD for a movie for 48 hours doesn't make any sense over straight up piracy.
No, it is not. It's using woke in its actual definition do describe a set of considerations and changes that lots of people don't appreciate.

Compare with: right-wing, left-wing, christian, etc. Woke.

I like IKEA. They’re very honest about their construction. They do some solid wood products, and some particle board products - and you’re never going to be confused what you’re buying

Also, all their packaging seems to be recyclable - including their food packaging. That’s something supermarkets in the UK aren’t even close to

I've dealt with bureaucracy in four countries and think Germany isn't so bad. I imagine it sucks if you ask them to speak English or make any sort of derogatory comments. My experience is more middle-of-the-road — some good experiences, some bad. Asking the bureaucrats how to achieve [whatever] helped sometimes, even if they winced at my grammar or pronounciation in the first years.
That’s correct, and I’m personally dissatisfied with the content currently available on Netflix, as well as the distribution of content across too many services. But it would be disingenuous to describe it as a market failure when the market was responsible for creating the industry in the first place.

If there’s a critical mass of consumers unhappy with the current streaming landscape, providers will be forced to improve or risk being replaced by superior competitors. That’s what happened to Blockbuster as well, and what I suspect is going to happen to many major providers in the coming years.
True. But unlike with the alternative that many end on, raw sql, it doesn't funnel anyone into a place where writing

I think anything that makes you take a new perspective on (software) product development and reflect on your experiences and pay attention to patterns of outcomes is going to make you a better developer.

Even if the book would be hopelessly outdated, that's usually informative too. It tells you which specific parts of the industry change slowly and which evolve rapidly. That will help you figure out where we are headed and what you can count on will be roughly the same for the next 25 years of your career.

It's very hard to rank books precisely, because how much people get out of them also depends on past experiences.

If you already have the book or can get free access to it -- why not try? Even just the preview on Amazon is usually good to give a sense of what it is like. Read a few chapters and see if it's something you think you want to continue with.

But what's important is not that you pick The Right Book now, it's that you pick up another book when you are finished with this one.
Mubi's catalogue is tiny, and I find their marketing and interface (which strongly imply all the shows that have ever been been on the platform are currently on the platform, misleading). Criterion Channel (https://www.criterionchannel.com/) is a similar art film / critically acclaimed film network, which an enormously larger and more diverse catalogue. Officially it's only available in the US but if you sign up through a VPN it works everywhere.
Compared to competitors, Apple TV+ currently appear to put much more emphasis on quality over quantity in their original content. I really enjoyed some shows like Severance, For All Mankind, Trying, Acapulco, Foundation. It reminds me of the time when Netflix Originals stood for content to be excited about. What they don't have is a back catalog of licensed films and shows included with the flat rate offering (they all cost an extra fee).
Got any links there? My googling didn't turn up anything like that (albeit I didn't get too many pages in).
I find it hard to believe that every single problem has a solution on the internet, which is what "overfitting" would imply.

I was playing Fallout: New Vegas on Wine, and for some reason, the music on my pipboy wasn't playing. I searched the internet for the Wine errors from the terminal to no avail, and as a last resort asked ChatGPT. It gave me step-by-step instructions on how to fix it, and it worked.

If that doesn't demonstrate that LLMs have some kind of internal model of the world and understanding of it, then I don't know what will.

> In that case, then some valid Zig programs will be rejected, but your type system is now not technically Turing-complete. It's also less powerful; there are going to be things that Zig's type system cannot express.

I think you're a bit too high on all this compsci theory stuff.

All computations in all languages (including ones generally considered to be turing complete) fail when you run out of resources like RAM or patience. Zig introduces an artificial quantity that can be used as a machine-independent way to ensure all compilations eventually end in either success or failure. It's like a timeout, but an actual timeout would be inconsistent across different machines (with different performance characteristics).

The actual state of things is much more boring than what your analysis tries to suggest: comptime is used to do some metaprogramming whose practical value is in good part determined by it not being too crazy, so the fact that you can't make a DisprovesCollatzConjecture type is actually fine.

You have found another feature of Zig that's even more mundane than async where you're trying really hard to misunderstand everything to indulge in... "destroying".

I think your own wording betrays the fact that you care about needlessly debating people more than actually understanding the tools in front of you in order to produce better software.

I think the concept of things like facebook and twitter is fundamentally opposed to the way that humans normally interact.

When I was growing up, we sent out a christmas letter once a year to everyone we knew. That comprised of family (near and far), local friends (each parent had like 3, and I had a couple), and longterm close friends (each parent had two). Basically everyone in my whole family did this, and everyone I knew did this too. This is an analogy for what facebook is to most people, but twisted.

Twitter is more of a "stand on your soapbox and scream and the passersby". Both of these services are something that, before the open internet of 2010-now, people did once or twice a year and maybe 5 times in their life (respectively) unless they are activists or politicians.

Meanwhile, gossiping with your friends at a lunchtable at school or work is as old as time, and the "cozy web" feels like this.

TLDR facebook and twitter are communication methods that are unnatural for the standard human to use more than once or twice a year.
This is essentially the ridiculous copyright laws backfiring.

The entertainment market is stagnating (if not quantity, at least quality-wise) because the copyright laws stiffle innovation instead of fostering it. Early-comers (Hollywood & co) are comfortably sitting on their stash of content, content with rehashing the same franchises. New-comers are forced to low-risk - low-quality content, sprinkled with anything they can get their hands on from other sources.
That's only if you consider streaming services a separate market than cable television. With the decline in cable subscriptions, that's clearly not the case. Netflix was just the hot new innovator in the entertainment delivery market, and now everyone else has caught up. The same market Blockbuster was in.
Also Prime Video ("The Rings of Power" is -or rather will be, after five seasons-the most expensive television series ever made).

I don't think that the pitch/field distinction is meaningful (except for cricket, wherein I believe that the pitch is part of the field). For football (all codes thereof), simply use whichever of the two words feels right in your dialect of English.

> If you actually lived in a Golden Era entertainment would be free

Who would foot the bill to produce this content? You suggest that content would be "free"... but free to who? The consumer, right? It certainly isn't possible to produce high quality films for free. People pour their blood, sweat and tears into these productions. Why should the fruits of their labors be given away for free? Would you wake up early every day and proceed to work eight hours for free?
It's not too wide: the Netherlands actually did a study on this.

It is a pretty extreme proposal of course, but it is possible. It would have some big benefits, not just to Netherlands, but all the countries around it, because all of them (UK, France, Germany, Belgium) stand to lose a lot of land to rising sea levels. Instead, with this dam, they could actually create a LOT more new land in what's now the North Sea. Remember, much of the North Sea used to be dry land (we call it "Doggerland" now), only about 8000 years ago, and had human settlements.

I think shipping could still be an issue. Sure, dams can have locks, but the sheer amount of ship traffic there might be difficult. Maybe they should build new some ports and use freight rail to move cargo around.

Well from what I understand there's some kind of interoperable network that everything works through though? There ought to be some general caching there at least. Right now every time there's something hosted on Mastodon posted anywhere it's not accessible because apparently the architecture is so bad that the average instance can't even handle a few hundred visitors without completely freezing.
Parent talks about device backup. Your link talks about iCloud backup. Different things
The standard mantra for physical key-based 2FA has always been "register two keys and keep one in a safe", which seems doable for important accounts (like banks and government stuff) but no way am I going to get a key out of my safe when I want to order a replacement part on JoesDiscountDishwasherParts.biz. I really wish there was a way to register your backup key through your primary key.

Luckily, FIDO2 can fix a lot of these problems. People who don't have significant security needs can use a trusted service (currently Apple, Google, and a few small companies) rather than a physical device. Lose your phone? As long as you can get your account onto a new one, you can still access all of your stuff.

Once this type of auth will take off, I can imagine a business model for a FIDO2 company that focuses on customer service. The only problem with the system right now is that if you can't log in to your Apple/Google/whatever account, there's no recovery. Try contacting customer support and see how long it takes until they just block your number, because there is nothing they can do.

Having a business where you can go to a physical office and show up with ID so you can get your account back would solve this problem. Recovery would still be a massive pain, but it's better than spending years on a legal battle like some people trying to get their pictures back from their cloud providers after getting locked out.

Fair, both sides should act in their best interest.

What I think is happening is that people realized they aren't getting much value from Netflix and this also served as a wake-up call for them to cancel. If you look at other comments you'll see several stating exactly that: they no longer think Netflix is worth paying for even if they have no trouble at all paying for it only for their own usage (and I'd think 99% of the users of HN can afford it easily).

It's also very possible this will end positively for Netflix i.e. they might want to get rid of the "leeches" and end up only with the paying users that obey their rules. If there are enough such people out there to cover their expenses AND turn a decent profit AND if they are loyal then Netflix will find themselves in a businessman's dream scenario.

In the end time will tell, as it happens with everything. I am mostly just offering you explanations for the current reactions to the news.
