AFAIK, it's a bit misleading. Much of that increase is due to a decrease in infant mortality and childhood related illnesses.
Yeah, I am a speedreader, and I did used to be able to do circa 3000wpm at a push. Good to know that even as a myopic 55YO I can still do half that without trying.

Points of comparison: I originally read Hal Clement's classic Mission of Gravity in about 25min, and Joseph Conrad's Victory in about 3 hours.
Seconding Lutris. Just install Lutris from the Flatpak store and login to your GOG account.[0] I have played a couple of games this one. The only one that wouldn't install was the first Jazz Jackrabbit which I didn't debug. I have a feeling it was because by default it used the Linux installer rather than just running the Windows executable via WINE/proton.

imo, it is injustice to present a clean capsule of the subject in a book,
and expect students to digest it - whereas it took hundreds of years of discovery to arrive at the concepts in that book.

i would love books that illustrate the struggles, and problems that drove advancements and how or why the ideas were invented in the first place.

to that end, i think gilbert strang's linear algebra is decent.

> 98% of passkeys will be stored in cloud accounts with those providers.

They will also (and primarily) be stored in the individual devices, and don't need cloud access to the providers in order to be used.

In this sense, it solves one of the main issues with third-party sign-in, i.e. that if the provider decides to lock your account, you get locked out of any linked services.

> You can transfer that problem from your site to a cloud provider

With passkeys? How so? Are passkeys not just cryptographic key pairs? If your service associates a certain account to a certain public key, there's nothing an external cloud provider can do to solve the issue you describe.

It's possible I've missed something, like I said before I'm still wrapping my head around the whole thing.

To some degree you can be contactable when traveling or otherwise away from your desk with a feature phone but only partially. You’d certainly be that quirky person with the odd anti-smartphone habit.
Fuchsia's Zircon might count also. Google used to specifically call it a microkernel. Though they updated the descriptive language to just "kernel" after it drifted further from LK and the number of syscalls got pretty high.
Any GC language is a lot safer than Rust.

Seriously, anytime you have to manage memory yourself it's going to include the danger that you mismanage it. Rust does not prevent all types of memory mismanagement.

What's more, the burden is on the programmer to manage memory; all the Rust compiler tells you is where there are potential (not actual) memory errors. The programmer still has to fix them, and even with that there are still a number of memory errors that will get through.

Compare to a GC - allocate an object and then forget about it. No problems at all.

yeah the national law aspect is interesting, and I could see it really taking off as new restrictive laws get passed in specific countries.

To take one example the UK Online Safety Bill could make access to a load of content trickier (or even cause companies to stop offering services in the UK) at which time I expect a load of UK people will start using VPNs to shift their traffic to appear to come from non-UK locations.

This is awesome. Discovering this kind of post is exactly why I read HN and not other "news" sources. Agree with others that the "empty" billboard frames look off. But much better than attention-seeking adverts.

Your competitors almost never matter. Most products fail because they a) never ship or b) don't solve an important problem.

If you're paying attention to your competitors, you're probably not paying enough attention to your customers.

If your customers are really just turned on by the latest shiny object, they're not customers, they're fad followers. Don't bother with them.

> If it continues to be successful and they can find someone else to run the business when they retire than Big Business never gets a chance to move in.

The way you typically do this is by selling the business to someone who wants to continue operating it.

> Either way, everyone is happy. The owners of the store still retire

Owning a business that is managed by somebody else in retirement is not the same as selling the business and retiring. If you still own the business, you are still responsible for it. If you have a great manager and just collect your checks from it, great! But what if that person quits suddenly/dies/etc.? Now you're managing the business again. If the manager of the business needs to work in it (e.g. retail store manager) and you moved away, now you've gotta get back there and start running it again.

Lots of answers in here speaking from very theoretical perspectives with a clear lack of understanding of the actual day-to-day reality of what owning a small business looks like.
Also the original use of VPN: to be able to access the internal resources of a network while physically outside the network.
I'm curious if you feel strongly about the 'open internet' as well, i.e. that platforms and content should be publicly available by default (as opposed to e.g. Elon's recent move to restrict the viewability of tweets by not logged in users).

To me, these datasets don't come from some nefarious violation of privacy (surveillance) on the people who've written or otherwise authored their content, but from an aggregation of public content that was previously uncontroversial.

If these data were pulled from private content, it would be a different story - although I'm sure that many companies TOS allows the use of your 'private' content to train their models.

Going forward I wonder if we may see an 'AI opt-out' for your data regulated (I'm not sure if the new EU act stipulates this)
The law really changed the way people look at the city. Since the article is from 2013, I think the percentage of approval has increased to more than 70% or, for younger people, the city is just like that, they have no reference of the city with billboard and all.

Unfortunately it suffers greatly - to a ridiculous level, in some places - from that ugliest kind of grafitti, convoluted "tags" made in single-stroke black ink

I'm not sure if that is the case everywhere but in Brazil people even have a separate name for that (pichação), to separate it from grafitti (which evokes some form of art)

It is truly staggering the amount of pichação you see in São Paulo. Google "pichação são paulo" to have some idea

As a software eng something that bothers me is that every single employer that I have worked for has assumed that you would have no problem installing work-related software on your phone.

The most common offender is MFA related software.

I run GrapheneOS on my phone and don't have the Google Play stuff installed. And kind of the entire point of this is that I don't want to run proprietary, closed-source stuff on my phone at all. I also like not having a ton of bloatware/spyware installed by the manufacturer that I can't remove. So anyway, I usually protest and say that I can't, and that if I'm required to use a mobile device for work purposes then I need the company to provide me with one.

Often arrangements can be made by requesting a device that can double for other work related functions. For example, I currently have a work-issued iPad with Okta Verify installed on it that also let's me reach for Safari and do iOS specific dev & testing when needed.

But it does show the creep. Companies just assume that they can request that you use your mobile device for things that you otherwise wouldn't, and that you will have no problem complying. IMO saying either "I don't own a smartphone" or "I refuse to use my personal devices for work related purposes" should be a no-questions-asked accepted position. And while I've yet to be met with hostility by saying that, it is unfortunately such a minority position that it is almost always the first time they've heard an objection.

You don't. They are hidden. If you are supposed to see them they shouldn't be hidden.

It's a thing everywhere, including Netherlands. I've seen it plenty of times over the years unfortunately.

As for this specific issue, difficult parents has been mentioned a few times, e.g. in [1]: "But a smartphone ban leads to resistance from some parents who always want to be able to contact their children, including creative forms of sabotage and frustrating conflicts in the classroom".

With hundreds or even thousands of kids and parents, you only need a few to be unreasonable to cause a world of frustration and hurt.

Technically that could be, but in practice there's a huge difference. In addition to several private phones I also have a work phone, and that number isn't set private. On that one I receive scam calls, ads, phishing, questionnaires every single day. My auto-blocking app stops a lot of it fortunately.
On my own phones I never receive a single one of these. Not one.
No, they take it if they see them out, either during class or recess.

How can Twitter be a Windows of anything? It is a tenth of Facebook's size, it's unprofitable and it can't bend any tech partners to its will, as shown by the Google Cloud situation.
I don’t know that I agree with the wording of the parent post, but I understand the sentiment. It does include a lot of hardware that is relatively cutting edge, and the insanely low latency on the system is reflected in that.

While calling it “the most advanced” might be a bit of a stretch, the sophistication of the hardware was something that I wouldn’t have previously thought possible. Some of your counter examples fall short of that complexity. The actual mRNA vaccines are pretty technologically simple, the complexity in differential gps is in its algorithms rather than hardware, and is that camera really groundbreaking (genuine question).
I disagree with this move. Though advertising is certainly excessive in many cities. They should've kept it, restrict what can be advertised (e.g. no alcohol, drugs, or things that the city deems 'bad') and used the revenue to beautify the city. In any case, Sao Paulo did have too many ads which restricted the view. At the very least that should've been resolved.

Though I suppose given HN people will applaud this move which is ironic given that we all are basically on a marketing forum for Y Combinator.
The problem is you aren't their intended audience.

I too thought Apple UIs were confoundingly bad, but one day I decided to take a step back and approach it as any ordinary man would. I pretended I knew nothing and cared nothing about computers.

You know what happened? It was intuitive. It was consistent. It was harmonious. My mind was blown.

Apple UIs are made for the ordinary man, not for tech nerds and professionals like us. Forget alt-tabbing and window managing, the vast majority of people on the planet don't know and don't care about computers; and it's those people Apple caters to.

Taking a look at the examples, the generated structure feels very much like a very barebone draft outline rather than anything like a complete fantasy novel.

> The termination of your business relationship can be argued to be a restriction.

It's not a very good argument. The GPL does not state nor does it imply a continuing duty to deliver you source code. You have a right to the source which corresponds to the binary you've been delivered. Period.

If I release a new binary to which I hold full copyright, after having delivered GPL sources to you, and I wish to change the license of that software to fully proprietary, your rights are not restricted re: the GPL bits you've previously received. Why? Because you should still have the source to the binary you received from me that was licensed as GPL.
Makes it look abandoned to me. Probably because my mind is used to seeing advertising everywhere that people are or transit so when I see no ads, I think no people.

I'm not sure ugly gray concrete is better than a big colorful billboard though. I'd like to see it in-person.
Well if The Dead Internet isn't true there is potential with the latest progress generative AI it might become true. There is an argument to be made that it has the potential to kill social media as we know it, depending on what the majority of people see a point in engaging with non-human generated content. Seeing how chess players treat cheaters, there is hope!
My Dutch school in the back-end of nowhere (insofar as the country has that) was very progressive with their phone ban in 2006, apparently. Per the article "Schools and teachers have been asking for rules to restrict the use of mobile phones in the classroom" I didn't know that they need permission to enact rules towards an orderly teaching environment. Sounds implausible but what do I know

A notable omission from the article is how many schools already have this rule, because I can't imagine that any of them just lets the kids be on their phone during lessons. You're also not allowed to talk while the teacher is explaining something, or aren't allowed to work on homework for another subject or so. So even learning is prohibited if it's not for the right subject you're allocated right now: that's already in place, but banning phones is a problem? Curious
I too found this effect in my dissertation research on same-different judgments of figures on a screen. Hard training achieved better and faster judgments than easy. The add from my work is the interaction effect of the cognitive style (holistic vs analytic) of the participant in comparison to the characteristics the task demands. If someone’s style was different than what the task required, hard training worked even better.

I left a $20 bill in my dissertation at the library if you can find it. I did that to see if anyone would read it.

So, the original statement that companies like AT&T can trivially get root certificates and MITM TLS traffic is just crazy talk, and you were right to challenge that.

> The most they can do now is spy on your DNS and redirect unresolved domains to some ad-filled page.

But this isn't really true either. There's a lot more that can be done with a packet stream than spy on DNS, even if the actual payload traffic is encrypted. A combination of DNS, SNI, IPs, and packet sizes and transmission patterns can allow fairly granular classification of traffic by type, and specific connections can then be traffic-shaped, e.g. by explicit throttling to some target bitrate or by applying differential QoS to them.
The photos in the article are from 2011, I believe, when the Clean City Law was introduced. There are no more empty billboards or advertising structures, many facades have been renovated, including works of art by Kobra and other graffiti artists.

Interesting from someone that leaves in SP for 2 years and just spend about 40 days in Berlin and 21 in NY last year, this doesn’t seem to resonate as such a big difference.

Berlin almost doesn’t have any billboards and NY I didn’t saw it bothered me, at least in Brooklyn.

Curious on how SP was in the past.

Unfortunately the city has way worst problems then billboards.
