Anyone's productivity can be measured, or at least what's left of that productivity after measuring. You may know nothing about how musicians make music, but you can measure superficial traits, such as the number of distinct notes used per minute of music, the feedback score from a committee you hired, the lead time to deliver a musical unit, and so on.
"Just" is doing a lot of work there. Getting root isn't always possible or easy, depending on your device manufacturer. And if you do manage to get root, your phone will likely stop passing SafetyNet, and you'll lose access to a bunch of apps that you may care about. SafetyNet can be spoofed in some situations, but not all, and even when spoofing does work, it all seems very brittle to me.

Yes, of course, you can do this, but let's not pretend there aren't trade offs.
> "You support it for 6 years or give us code, else we will take our million chip order to competition" should be enough

QCM has:

a) YEARS of RnD -> Patents on cellular tech.
b) YEARS of experience making the modems (on both ends of the link!)

compared to the other players in the space.

Where is google going to go here?

Can't do huawei because sanctions. Can't do MediaTek or Samsung because their modems are inferior in almost every way (speed, bandwith, power consumption ...).

Intel never was a serious player and I don't think they're in the space at all anymore.
exactly - people each time there is a fine they continue to regurgitate the usual "but what bout their revenue" - people on the orange site thinking they know better than a panel of expert regulators
> Their demands come even as wage inflation appears to have hit a peaked, the report said.

Does this reference a tech sector-specific wage inflation?
No, this slap on the wrist only changed this bad behavior, so they'll try again with something else.

What needs to be done is not a slap on the wrist but a whack over the head with a cluebat that it's been enough and that the next fine will put them out of business so we can stop this endless game of whackamole.
No, what you're describing has nothing to do with greed. Self-interest is not the same as greed. There would be nothing between greed and charity using according to your definition. Indeed, keeping the car when they didn't need it would also be greed. The only in-between is selling it for a fair value - but there is no objective fair price.
Not sure what data you're looking at, but that's completely off. Trailing 12 month food inflation is over 4%. Transportation inflation is over 10%. Services excluding energy are up 5.9%.
I thought this as well: "Intel is too important strategically that US government surely will help them one way or another". I still haven't bought stock though. It's not like Intel had cash problem when threats from AMD started to appear for example. I stopped following at some point but I don't think they suffer from insufficient funds (or ability to raise it) to attract talent today. You can't just buy company culture.

AWK's new CSV and UTF-8 support is great, but when querying data I think in terms of SQL.
Ok, now I'm sad! I hope the one I bought recently is a bit better than the old ones you guys tried, we'll see. I've only used it a handful of times so far.
csvtool is probably what you're looking for, though I think the use case for JSON vs CSV is different as one is hierarchy-oriented and the other is flat.
Yep. For me Concurrency and CSP are why I learned Go and why I still use it today. I love thinking concurrently about problems and how data and control flow through those systems. It was a natural fit for me in those aspects and the other language warts don't get in the way enough to matter.
> I don't expect these effects to be immediate

I do, if this efficient market hypothesis were to hold true

The changes to the browser were immediate from one version to the next, what would stop everyone who doesn't like that from switching browsers instead of upgrading?

The fact that it isn't immediate kind of proves the point: the market doesn't always favor the best product, because dominant players can exploit their market position to make anti-features and hide them from users

If there was a truly efficient market, this behavior would be immediately punished. That it was not, proves that there is not.

If a dominant company can abuse its users for a decade or more before the market handles the problem, that speaks to a lack of a competitive environment, or anticompetitive behavior. The market has failed, and thus some intervention is warranted to stop the abuse sooner than that. I propose for your economic theory, though, the title of "eventual efficiency" in markets :)
Ok! So that makes sense. These are people with some credibility and authority.

Why the hell is this not mentioned in the article in favor of their former jobs?!
The endless pursuit of growth is incredibly destructive. A consistent profitable business is considered a failure.

Instragram was able to pull their users into Threads pretty easily without making Threads a direct part of Instragram. It is still it's own thing with it's own brand.
> This is a tenuous point at best. Apple isn't exactly rushing to make repair of their devices easy / accessible which is essential for a product to have a long life. Google doesn't have a lot of say over what other OEMs do w/r/t their hardware support.

Apple absolutely repairs their devices or replaces them for customers at reduce/no cost and recycles the components. They have an entire program for this called AppleCare. Millions of devices have been repaired by AppleCare. The only thing Apple is bad about is allowing independent third-parties to do repairs.

Google is stating here they won't even do first-party repair, nor will they supply parts for third party repair. This is not even in the same ballpark. You are making a false equivalence to try to distract from the fact that Google is uniquely bad here and has no respect for their customers.
My point is that mjevans's proposal would not work.

You jumped in with a personal opinion about one word choice, in what I believe is a tangential point making a jab at the union.

That personal opinion on the matter shouldn't carry much weight as 1) many others refer to it as "concession", 2) using GM's term of "sacrifice" doesn't affect the logic behind my point, 3) you haven't explained your reasoning, making it hard for me to understand how it has anything to do with my point.

I've thought about an AirTag for my cat, but she doesn't tolerate large collars well (meaning if she doesn't like it - it will get lost on a branch somewhere).

Any way to shrink/lighten the AirTag?
The problem is that you need some form of RTTI that allows object serialization. This is basically what Delphi does: the forms, controls, etc you are editing are not fake stand-ins, they are the class instances you are working with. The object inspector shows you the actual instance properties as defined in code and you are editing live objects - the only difference is that those objects have a "design mode" flag so they can ignore any user input. When you save a form, it serializes the objects on disk. That serialization data is stored on the executable and when you run the program, the form is deserialized and the object instances are what were stored.

There is almost no UI-specific functionality there, the same functionality can be used to serialize any type of object and you can even implement your own serialization logic for your objects. The language's RTII allows for declaring properties (think like C# properties, though really C# properties were inspired by Delphi properties as the latter had them since the original Delphi 1.0 for Windows 3.1) as part of a class and has support for metaclasses (classes are instances themselves of a metaclass that describes the class), including virtual constructors (since classes are instances they have their own VMT) which allows for constructing class instances on the fly by passing a class type in a function.

The thing is, C++ does not have this sort of functionality. You can implement your own RTTI, as several projects do (many game engines do that for example), but it is often clunky (e.g. relies on macros, duplicating info, manual registration and/or external tools that parse the code and generate the RTTI boilerplate).

C++ Builder did it because it extended C++ to add that functionality in a way that is ABI compatible with Delphi - and is how it can use VCL (which is written in Delphi).
I think that means they just won't charge the fee for such titles.

For an adult, life expectancy then was 55 or better!

Great start! Some things to consider for future versions: more sophisticated tax code, financial regulations, monopsonies, monopolies, collusion, corruption, oligarchies, demand elasticity, cascading effects from supply chain disruptions, central bank quantitative easing.
I don't think these names are big enough.

AC is a reasonable abstraction for the combination of hitting the target and penetrating the armor. Some editions even had touch AC for situations where penetrating the armor was unnecessary.

The real nonsensical part of the D&D system is hit points. Someone hits you in the face, and you take "damage" and lose hit points. As long as you have some HP left, this "damage" is completely harmless and does not affect your ability to fight. If you are a high-level character, you can be punched in the face many times with no adverse consequences. Until you reach 0 HP, which suddenly makes you unable to take any action.

I remember hearing that the AC/HP system was originally borrowed from some miniature wargame involving ironclad warships. It definitely makes more sense in that context than with living creatures.

Also, if I remember correctly, the class/level system was the part of D&D that was considered obsolete in the 90s. Back then, almost everyone was using a system where you developed each skill and ability independently. Then 3e resurrected D&D and classes and levels became popular again.

If you use Apple Music, you can upload mp3s (preferably ALAC to avoid lossy transcoding because it always converts to AAC) to their servers and stream them from any of your devices. For me it's the killer app for Apple Music. It's the reason I switched to it from Spotify.

You're saying they're wrong that housing barely appreciates above inflation, around 4%, citing as an example a relative's sale of a house held for 50 years for 7.5x the real price.

Care to take a guess what 4% compounded for 50 years is? It's +611% or a total of 7.1x the original price. Your relative experienced 4.11% annual real gains, pretty close to 4%.

Over the last 70 years, a 300% gain in real terms is an annual increase of just 2%. That is barely outpacing inflation in my book.
Very few things I'm jealous of in blue states, but their online privacy protection is up there. I've pondered why no party has made this a major priority, but the reality is the vast majority of Americans simply don't care.

I would love to tell these big tech companies I want all traces of myself removed from their search engines. I understand it gets a bit nuanced with first amendment n such (what about a news article of me committing "x crime"), but give citizens SOME protection. At least Europe tries and pushes back.
Why not a kickstarter? I'd back this
Everything in the category "the user owns the device" is tricky.

For a lot of users, "It's really hard to break" is a value-add. Every capacity the user has to modify permissions is an opportunity for an attacker to compromise a device. You can see an example of this in web browsers these days, where sites have to `log` a big scary "Don't paste anything someone tells you to paste into here" message into the built-in developer tools because no matter how many safety features get added to the browser security model, the dev tools can bypass them.

It is definitely important that the purchaser knows what kind of phone they're getting (whether it's easy or hard to crack open all the layers of its protection model), but "The phone's protection model is easily broken by the owner" as a universal absolute applied to all devices should be considered harmful.
At this point, maybe we should reduce anonymization? We've had this idea since the 90s that an anonymous internet with signal amplification is a net good, but that's been turning out to be less and less true. If you want to self publish anonymously, you are not entitled to use of one of the big 5 platforms.

Maybe this causes fragmentation of large platforms, that'd also be a net good imo.
I think you missed my point entirely. I'm saying that supply-and-demand is too simple to be useful, not that it is untrue. It does not point directly at the dominant effect that is causing housing to be priced the way it is, although it is part of the overall equation. I still believe that building lots of housing is a great idea (and finding a way to make more cheaper non-luxury-priced housing get built would be even better). But it's not a good-enough theory of housing prices.

Yeah, those are nice, I had them on my road bike. On my current touring bike I use Schwalbe Marathon, also not bad. I don't know if they make Gatorskin in wider versions.
From what I understand, there are semi-rational reasons for which Putin might have wanted to attack Ukraine in 2022 and not wait, for instance, 10 more years to ensure that Europe could not wean itself of Russian resources.

- Despite Russian propaganda to the contrary, the Russian army is still going to pieces. Yes, there is a stronger professional core now than there used to be during the 90s, but that core is shrinking because the military has difficulties both funding itself, attracting new recruits, and with endemic corruption. Some of the reasons for which it has difficulties attracting new recruits are that the Russian population is growing old very quickly and emigration is attractive to whoever can afford to leave.

- Historically, Russian doctrine is to assume that an invasion is coming from the West. Always. History shows of a few places where such an invasion can be stopped fairly easily, if Russia controls them. As it turns out, two of the lynchpins are respsectively in Ukraine in Poland. Since the army is getting weaker and there is a chance that Ukraine could join NATO, if Russia wants to grab control of the lynchpins, it has to attack as early as possible, before the imbalance grows worse.

- The fact that PRC is eyeing towards Taiwan means that the US cannot commit too many forces in Ukraine. There is a risk that PRC might end up subjugating Taiwan either semi-peacefully or at least so fast that the US doesn't get a chance to react, in which case the window of opportunity would close.
platform isn't just about subscriptions, subscriptions don't really make a platform, and overall it'd be kind of a poor tell of whether it's time to jump ship. epic/unreal is kind of a platform (there's a bunch of stuff in their ecosystem that plugs in, etc.), so what, should people jump ship from unreal now
My friend lives in a suburb of a city and her cat's airtag rarely went off enough to be useful. He mostly hangs out in the bushes where she was most worried about not finding him.
Businesses fail as profits decrease, one cause of which could be higher cost of inputs. It may lead to those businesses cutting costs elsewhere, or passing it onto the consumer. To shame companies as they find ways to maintain profits when they're the first to be affected by increased cost to inputs is economically illiterate and leads to misguided focus on what the cause of inflation affecting all levels before a consumer gets their smaller chips or soda.

I guess OAuth is relatively fast as I don't have a middleman (like Auth0) in there. It's just Passport.js.
There's lots of articles everywhere, but the basics are: make sure everything is paid on time; if you have any earned negative items, see if you can get them removed by asking nicely etc.

Then there's things like age of oldest account, average age of accounts, etc. You may be able to add her to your accounts to improve this factor, if your accounts are older than hers.

Then balances. You get dinged for having a balance on too many accounts. I think you also get dinged for having zero balance everywhere. I think 'ideal' is 3ish cards with balances (you can (and should) pay the whole balance every statement, reporting is usually done just after the statements). Highest ever balance should be less than credit available or you get dinged; ask for credit increases on cards where you ever went over the limit. Total balance shouldn't be more than some % of total credit, I think 35%? You also get dinged for high % current balance on any one card. Again, you can add her on high limit, low usage cards to help her score. She'll get more score points as a joint account holder than an authorizer card holder.

You get dinged for recent (6 month?) credit inquiries, but inquiries are grouped, so if you apply for new credit, try to get it all done in a few days; mortgage inquiries have longer to be grouped.

If you know when your creditors do reporting, you can adjust your payment dates to tweak things. You might make a payment to your credit card before the statement closes even in order to show a lower utilization % and that could move your score a lot depending on details.

They are doing a good thing, but it's bad because that good thing may allow them to do something bad later?

Sorry, but I'll ask for them to be punished when they try to do the bad thing. Not earlier.

They can do nefarious things whenever they want. They don't need to normalize a good thing first, there are all kinds of anticompetitive actions they can do right now without complex scheming. (And yeah, they constantly do many of those, but still, without any complex scheming.)

One nice thing about CSV files being zipped and served via the web is they can be streamed directly into the database incredibly fast without having to persist them anywhere (aside from the db).

You can load the zip file as a stream, read the CSV line by line, transform it, and then load it to the db using COPY FROM stdin (assuming Postgres).
That's a distinction without a difference in these tightly controlled ecosystems.
Here in the US, while unit pricing is commonly displayed, I frequently find that a store will use a wide variety of units, thereby negating the ability to easily compare items in this way. For the same type of product I may see cost per ounce, cost per pound, cost per each, cost per dozen, etc. for various sizes and brands. It's maddening, insulting, and probably in most cases malicious.
You can have only one en passant situation on the board at once. This means you can use 3 bits to encode the column for en passant, you check the board to evaluate the legality of the solution and discard if it isn't legal (this means you don't have to use a bit to encode whether it's possible as the encoder is guaranteed to be able to pick a column that it's not possible.)

The advantage and disadvantage of Linux simultaneously is that you need to pick such a filesystem or work around the limitations, but it's your choice. The OS underneath really should not be responsible. Apple solves it with APFS snapshots and Microsoft has Volume Shadow Copy (which requires NTFS or ReFS).

I personally use compose for all my services now and back up my compose.yaml by stopping the entire stack and running a restic container that mounts all volumes in the compose.yaml.[1] It's not zero downtime, but it's good enough, and it's extremely portable since it can restore itself.

All of this is emergent behaviour. Agents need to be smarter and the networks need to be larger and information needs to have a cost.
I strongly suspect, but do not know, that the slowness in USB enumeration is a software stack issue on the host side of things.

If you think about plugging a USB device into a desktop OS, the OS has to check security settings, find and load a driver for the device, etc.

But as far as the protocol itself is concerned but I don't see any intrinsic reason why enumeration can't be nearly instant, for something like a console that only needs to recognize a few possible devices, each with minimal drivers that can be preloaded.
