Sorry, you don't appear to understand how stocks actually work.

The market cap of a company is an estimate of its value. The value includes things like current assets, expected present value of future profits, and so on. If it pays out $X, to first order effects, investors have $X more money, the company has $X less in assets, and so is worth $X less than it was. This is literally a redistribution of current market value back to investors.

At the level of a stock, the result is that a dividend of $Y will normally DROP the price of the stock by $Y. This is the exact opposite of "inflating" it.

Now I said to first order. What would be a second order factor? Well a large part of the value of a company comes from an estimate of the present value of future returns. Paying a dividend is literally an admission on the part of management that they do not think that they can spend the money and get returns matching other investments (ie the stock market). And therefore it is in the interests of investors that the money be returned. If this admission comes as a surprise to investors, this may change expectations of the future and drop the stock price even further. But unless the money being returned is from an unexpected windfall, the second order effects are unlikely to be positive either.

As an investor you should rightly see the fact of the money being returned as a bad sign for the future. However if you understood the chip industry deeply, it shouldn't come as a surprise. Your theory and preference appears to be that Intel should roll the dice on a Hail Mary to have a chance of a revival that keeps your losses from being permanent. But given the headwinds that they face, returning money and winding down operations in an orderly fashion may well give the best possible returns for investors. Which is what management appears to have concluded.

Hence return money that they can return, cut overhead with a layoff, and expect more of the same going forward. Anyone who invests in Intel expecting them to do anything else is probably throwing good money after bad.
I'm new to using social media as a medium to reach an audience. My audience is a niche audience, technical, and not what people associate with typical TikToks. But TikTok has been a good place to start: It is simple; content creation tools are easy to use; the audience is new and growing; there are fewer established content creators in my field on TikTok.

TikTok obviously is differentiated in some ways, but it seems to work like most social media: It will seek an audience response and eventually give up if it can't find one. I cross-post my content, and I will start using "platform neutral" creation tools because social media platforms appear to detect and deemphasize obviously cross-posted content created primarily for competing platforms.

I'll be jumping on BlueSky as soon as the beta deities look favorably on me. No high-growth phase lasts forever.

It's not "my analysis" and I explicitly made clear it wasn't (see: "even if you don't agree"). I told you what the rage hook was. I don't know enough to have an opinion about whether this is in balance on not, but no one reading will care they reduced their dividend, but you had to deboooooonk it because ackshually it was a lower dividend.

That's not the point.

Also, this mythology of the corporation as a shareholder profit maximizer is just dead 70s orthodoxy. It isn't the case in most other developed economies and you and Marty Lipton and can keep Delaware.

> You're calling my comment strained, but somehow missed the fact that all of the things you mentioned are shipped by Apple and updated basically together?

Again, you're handwaving and intentionally failing to acknowledge that Safari and GarageBand and all the other applications are applications, like any other a team may develop and/or a user may use source to build, or download and run an installer, or drag and drop a bundle, far more complex than, technically speaking, most available applications, and very big programs to the non-technical. Yet in regards to the operating system, not in the remotest way, "and related content."

Safari is not and Music and Photos are not related to the OS. They have nothing to do with the kernel, nothing to do with core services, nothing to do with directory services or App Kit, they're just applications. Apple bundles applications, and this is entirely irrelevant to the operating system "and related content." The bundled applications have nothing to do with the OS, which will keep chugging along whether they're there or not.

The salient detail here that has been lost on you since my initial comment is that softwareupdate manages a metric sh!tton of packages and keeps them updated with very little effort from the operator, like any good package management system should, and not merely "updates the OS and related content," an astounding simplification that misses the fact that it is a package manager, just like FreeBSD ports, just like pkgsrc, just like yum, just like RPM, aptitude, Ubuntu Software Center, Windows Package Manager, and just like MacPorts, AppStore, and Cydia, and hundreds if not thousands of other available package management systems.[1]

softwareupdate isn't just some cute Apple product, and Apple certainly didn't invent or pioneer package management; softwareupdate manages thousands if not tens of thousands of packages that have absolutely nothing to do with a computer operating system. It isn't called "macOS Update," it is called softwateupdate for patently obvious reasons.

> MacPorts, ... is now definitely a third-party solution

I could have sworn I stipulated it was third party. Didn't I?

I was shocked the last time I used Google without an adblocker. The first 4-5 search results were ads. I had to scroll to get to the first actual result. There also seems to be less effort to distinguish ads from regular links.

I wonder which genius adsense manager thought "hey we could double our revenue if we show 4 ads instead of 2, user experience be damned".
Other than it's yet another hit piece (YAHP at this point) against TikTok, not really. Are they doing shady shit? Probably. Is there a social media site who isn't doing shady shit? Probably not. As such, will this kill TikTok? Probably not.

TikTok, even with this change, is still primarily connecting users to users, and not users to brands. This makes them more valuable than any other social media site to those users. Even when TikTok makes missteps.
I don't think that's what people are afraid of. It sure as heck isn't what I'm afraid of. Unless you count "humanity" as the existing system of power, and "something much smarter than humanity" as the disruption.

When I think of ray tracing, my mind immediately assumes that it is equivalent to path tracing, and I have been a bit disappointed by many games' raytracing implementation. My biggest qualm with games out there, is that reflections are still always screenspace. I want to be able to use a reflective surface like water, glass, or mirrors to get a glimpse of what is around a corner, or to watch behind myself. (There is the occasional exceptionally well implemented mirror or portal, but most reflections only handle static scene geometry outside the camera's field of view.)

Does Cyberpunk's path tracing finally allow this, or are the paths still limited to what is in view? Personally, I feel like proper reflections would be more useful and visually impressive for games than trying to render things as realistically as possible. I know that is a lot to ask with the current hybrid rendering approach, but I felt like ray/path tracing would address those issues from the start.

If it does work well, I will probably buy and play through it again. (Steam family sharing is a wonderful thing)
There needs to be a Supreme Court ruling that outlaws tying wages to tips received. This is what caused the mess we are in now. Tipping is rife with racial and sexual discrimination[1] and contributes to wage instability and other problems, but it is a prisoner's dilemma situation because if one company increases their prices to incorporate tips, but another does not, the prices of the company that increased their prices will appear artificially high and will lose customers. The few companies that tried no-tipping had to end it[2].

Until systemic changes are implemented, I think the amount people tip should not be tied to service received to avoid bias (i.e. if you generally tip restaurant servers 20%, then tip all servers 20% and if you receive better or worse service do not tip more or less, but rather change the frequency that you are a patron). For tips requested for non-service interactions (e.g. self-checkouts), it is probably better not to tip so that it does not proliferate the problem.

Show HN: Submit ChatGPT prompts on a web page to mutate the same web page
Two charitable readings would be that the author is either:

* Suggesting Steam is a platform like any other, and therefore likely to experience the same process.

* Critical of the quality of some of the titles released on the platform. Steam used to be much more selective in deciding which games made it on to their store. Indie developers and even small publishers were often unable to get their games approved for distribution. This didn't start to change until the introduction of Steam Greenlight[0] in 2012, allowing users to vote on which indie games they'd like to see on the platform for the first time. However, approvals were still heavily curated compared to what we have today. Greenlight was replaced by Steam Direct[1] in 2017.

I don't necessarily disagree with either, although I do think Steam has been improving rather than "shittifying". Wading through low quality games is annoying but there are a lot of fantastic games that would never have been approved under the old system; Vampire Survivors is a great example of something that probably would have gone straight in the bin.

The "be the real you" crowd never quite has a good answer for "what if the real you is an unlovable, broken piece of shit?", do they?
I think that's something that I'd be fine with -- you can require a YubiKey (or similar) within an org if you need on-device credentials, but general platform authenticators and syncing authenticators don't provide attestation. So in practice your choice is to either:

- require a roaming authenticator (ie, a hardware token) which can be enforced with attestation, or

- don't use attestation

I'd still like it to be reflected in the spec that platform authenticators should not support attestation, but it seems like a reasonable compromise to me. Enterprises still can do what they want and have strong security internally, but Netflix can't use attestation unless they're willing to force every one of their customers to buy a hardware token and to block web sign-in on Mac. Honestly, kind of a win-win for everyone (except for companies that wanted to abuse the spec).

I'm not against enterprise customers and orgs being able to control their own devices, I just want guarantees that the practice will stay within those companies/orgs. And restricting the capability to basically just roaming authenticators/hardware tokens seems like it would provide some guarantee.
I thought N: Name Recognition was going to go in a different direction. Frankly, what makes a bigger difference than having a known company on your resume (though that probably helps with respect to big Tech companies with known difficult interview processes, albeit for mostly the wrong reasons) is N: Networking. Getting a job through people I've known has worked for me since the last century.
In contrast, I love seeing these headlines. Really puts into perspective who not to work for and what to look out for in a position.

Attestation doesn't carry that information. Also consider that Apple zeroes out attestation for its devices and works just fine with Google as passkeys. What's happening here is that when an RP is registering an authenticator, it can include a property that's called userVerification which in a Yubikey is backed by a PIN, and Google sets it as required. The restriction in functionality that you mention is exactly what Google wants though, but not for malicious purposes. Google doesn't want someone stealing your yubikey and having that suffice to log in to your account. They want user verification so that if that Yubikey is stolen, an attacker also needs to know the PIN, thus providing two factors. Again, Google does not prevent you from using Yubikeys. It prevents you from using security keys that aren't configured for user verification, and they don't do that through attestation.

> Right, but if you're talking about trusted devices, unless that's something the user controls, exporting/importing doesn't matter. The point is that the user should be able to export their key and import it to any authenticator they choose without fear that their authenticator is going to be blocked from logging in to a service.

No, not just physical devices. Anything that represents a device with a wrapping key. That could be a software implementation that's just a file you control. What I'm saying though is that for the general case which is what a standard is concerned with, we won't see the standard-mandated ability to export passkeys across sync fabrics. I don't see a world where you can export passkeys from Apple iCloud Keychain and import them into Google Password Manager. But I do see a world where you create passkeys in your Mac with KeePassXC, and can use an open sync fabric from KeePassXC to sync them to your Android device, and a flat file as well, and I believe this will happen not under the purview of FIDO. Whether those flat files can then hop on to another sync fabric (say, 1Password) to later be imported into hardware devices will definitely not be a part of a standard, but given the analogy to password managers, it doesn't matter; those capabilities can still be built.

As far as the Chromium post, I find that one slightly more dystopic than attestation as a feature. They say If Chrome becomes aware that websites are not meeting these expectations, we may withdraw Security Key privileges from those sites, and similar other warnings. They don't say that they will warn users, they say that they will withdraw privileges. Do you want your browser deciding for you what websites you can log in to?

> The video is perfectly good evidence (and its age and provenance make it pretty reputable). If the defense contests its veracity, that's when you start going to witnesses.

The defense will always contest its veracity if the burden is on the prosecution to prove it and they haven't. The point is that they should have to prove it.

Sometimes they'll be able to.

As someone on similar medication for health reasons (severe testosterone deficiency), I can provide some more specific information that might be helpful.

The issue with testosterone is that it's linked to an increase in hematocrit (level of red blood cells in blood). There's a band of hematocrit levels that's healthy for donation. If the hematocrit level is too high, it's potentially dangerous to the recipient, but too low a level of hematocrit makes the donation dangerous to the donor. As a result, hematocrit level testing is one of the few tests that they do before every single donation.

These chemicals aren't dangerous, they're present in all humans. No blood clotting is hemophilia, which is also a dangerous condition. Regular blood donation can prevent build-up, and the decrease in hematocrit after blood donation is one of the reasons for the required interval between donations.

Valve's dysfunction doesn't manifest as drama (which is how dysfunction manifests in other gaming companies, e.g. Activision-Blizzard), but rather as interminable deadlock. Fortunately for Valve, they reaped the first-mover advantage with Steam (and literally invented loot crates, a decade before Fortnite) and can freely sit on their laurels while Steam prints an infinite pile of money.
I think you're right, but I'd say it's from a bygone era in which there was a stronger expectation of loyalty between employers and employees. (Maybe post-WW2 U.S.? Not my area of expertise.)

Is there really a good reason in 2023 to have an interactive command line app? I've seen apps that at least maybe display a web server on localhost and then interact with it through the browser

Or Electron, etc.

I feel like command-line is alienating (deliberately, obviously) a huge portion of potential users. It basically guarantees whatever you made will only get used by tinkerers and not anybody serious (like if I have to pass a proof of concept pet project along to my manager, terminal might make it a non-starter 85% of the time)
Faking with Type Families
It's basically the very definition of bad faith to respond to a comment asking for reasons to believe a thing like this.

Valve charges 30%. I personally believe that this is an evil amount. The fact that the market bears it is, by my estimation, strong evidence of their monopoly position. The same argument holds for any "platform" charging that much more than the the cost of hosting.

Calling your opposition terminally negative is pretty shitty.

The extent of US corporate law is that directors have a fiduciary-like duty to maximize shareholder _value_, but also that they must act in the best interests of the company. Statements beyond that are not reflections of law, but of faith.

A couple salient points:

The "best interests of the company" need not, and often are not, simply maximizing quarterly profits, share price, etc. Indeed, sometimes these things are odds with one another.

Moreover, shareholder value includes but is not limited to return on investment. It is simply most convenient _from a managerial perspective_ to simplify diverse shareholder notions of value down to the most legible lowest common denominator.
