I had a team that coded integrations into Netsuite and used an integration platform for Shopify and others

You always need to learn Shopify and learn Netsuite. More so if you are coding it. We often had to pull developers back from other projects because one counter party or another changed something and nobody could work out how to change it.

We always ended up with scripting in Netsuite even with the integration platforms. There was no winning either way, but we went with integration platforms by choice because of maintainability and expertise from the platform engineers.

So maybe because in the past I granted iTerm access to Desktop, it still has access to everything inside even after I've disabled it. I tried making a new file outside of iTerm just now, and iTerm can still read it, so it seems directory-level.

iTerm is third-party software like anything else. Wonder if it got an exemption. Also, TextEdit evidently has access to everything without asking, so it's not just a terminal thing. Idk what's happening exactly, but I don't trust this sandboxing.

Yes, that's more or less what I said. However, those models contain objectively true statements with regards to themselves. According to the theory of relativity no object can go faster than light, correct? A sandwich is an object, correct? Then it's objectively true that according to the theory of relativity a sandwich can't go faster than light. It doesn't matter whether sandwiches actually are capable of going faster than light, that the theory of relativity states (indirectly) that sandwiches can't go faster than light is an objective truth.

Ask HN: Does anyone else find switching between tasks draining?
My job involves a lot of testing. There’s a lot of database copying so those tests can range anywhere between a 5 to 120 minutes.

The only way for me to be productive at this job is to work in something else while this is going on. I find this absolutely draining. Having to switch development environments, switch my mind, I lose so much momentum. Not to mention the pending task can fail anywhere in between so there’s no knowing when to alternate back.

In communes without private property, there is generally still personal property. Taking somebody's personal property is theft if you had reason to believe their feelings would be hurt by the taking.

Even communal property may be stolen if there are any sort of expectations about one person having temporary exclusive use of that item. Maybe you and I live in a cult compound where literally everything is communally owned, even the cult robes on our backs. Now suppose that when you step into the shower, I take the robe you were wearing, the clean robe you were planning to wear, and all the communally owned towels as well. I have violated your reasonable expectation to have temporary use of those communal items. I have therefore stolen from you. Maybe our cult has a different word for it, but fundamentally I have stolen from you because I've deprived you of something you had a reasonable expectation to possess.

Runway Accident in India NEW DELHI, India (AP) — An Air France Boeing 747 jet carrying 275 peo- ple swerved off a runway at New Del- hi's airport and crashed into a field to- day after the pilot aborted takeoff be- cause he thought an engine was on fire, airport officials said. No one was seri- ously injured in the accident, the Air- port Authority said. Indian news agen- cies said several passengers on the flight, which had been bound for Paris, were treated for minor cuts and bruises after evacuating the plane through emergency chutes.
JLC-LCSC integration is pretty big for small-volume users, I'll agree. But you can do that with Kicad/LibrePCB just as easy as making boards.

You could always have fully-assembled boards come back for basically the cost of the parts...as long as you were at quantity 10k units. Hooray for automation!
> But there is nothing stopping them from standardizing their own and building out support from other players in the industry.

The smaller the device, the more difficult this is. Especially with modularity taken into account. A Framework has modules which are basically USB-C to X where X can be anything (TB, USB-A, USB-C, microSD, etc etc). Easy, if you have the space. On 5-6 inch smartphone? You don't have such space. Furthermore, the SoC is mostly an all in one package on smartphones, in contrast to laptops.

I never really got this until I was talking to a scientist in our organization and she was bemoaning the fact that it was taking her team hours to do some basic analysis of files that our instrument exported.

"So why don't you make a request for Software to add that data to the file? We could do it easily enough."

"I did! but they keep telling me it's not high enough priority so it gets pushed out to 'the next release' every time"

"OK, I'll write you an offline tool to process the data."

Took me an afternoon to write a simple C# tool to ingest a number of files and spit out the data that she needed. She had been waiting over a year for my software team to get the go-ahead to do it as a built-in feature. And this was taking a biochemist on average 3 hours every day to do by hand!

As much someone can write a procedure manual about how to fix something and teach it others, there is still a level of intangible skills, which come with long-term experience, to fix something that broken in an “organic” way (i.e. crumpled aluminum) that can’t be easily described in words.

Yup. My girlfriend's dad was an IBM mainframe troubleshooter in the 80s. IBM would tell him to be on a plane in 45 minutes, go fix a mainframe, and then go do it again.

The problem with that approach is that it also makes conflicts more likely if there are no drawbacks to deployment of such weapons.

There's a lot of push back to deploying human soldiers in a conflict, but much less so for remotely controlled drones. It's likely that AI bots would have even less domestic pressure to avoid conflicts.

Placement is usually as important as routing, if not more so. At the same time, the act of thinking carefully about placement will often making routing easier. I try to take a holistic view -- I don't see routing as grunt work, or as an unnecessary chore, but as part of the design process.

On a long-enough timeline, ML tools will become a natural fit for placement and routing. It is a rather dumb thing for humans to have to deal with, at the end of the day, but the existing tools are just not good enough to take over the job. At least not the tools that most of us have access to.
It's reasonable to ask, because they can already tell that you have 6 years of general software experience. Maybe they need someone who has shipped products in a particular framework. I'm sure you would agree that there is a difference between someone who has 6 months of experience doing something, versus 3 years and versus 10 years. Would you hire a musician who has 6 months of experience playing an instrument and just hope that they can learn enough to play professionally, on your dime? If they don't happen to pan out, it's the hiring manager's ass on the line (and in this case the entire company)

Apply, hope for the best, and move on if it doesn't work out.
While I agree with others that upgrading an older flagship phone isn't as compelling as it used to be, the report says that sales of premium smartphones were still growing:

>Canalys says, "Apple and Samsung boosted their premium segment shipments with 25% and 23% growth respectively in Q2 2023."

Instead, it's more about the sub flagship phones and especially less popular brands:

>The biggest loss on the chart is actually "others," down 43 percent, likely representing the further consolidation of the Android market. These are your OnePluses, your HMD/Nokias, and trashy pre-paid vendors like Blu. Canalys explains some of this by saying the low-end market "will continue to struggle as prepaid demand dwindles."

That may be due to inflation squeezing the low end market harder, Google eating their lunch with very attractive $350-$500 offerings, and growth in sales of used/refurbished flagships [1].

Criticism so far seems to make the same few points:

> "Hell, now remote work is ruined. Thanks, Zuckerberg"

I actually think this may help enable remote work in the long run as companies who are unwilling to accept the current WFH/hybrid models see this as a viable compromise.

More importantly, when I call my supplier in Belgium, I'll be able to see them "face-to-face" (avatar-to-avatar?) and develop a more human relationship than just exchanging emails or phone calls.

> "Great, social relationships are going to be even worse"

If that's the use you want to make of it, sure. But it also enables you to connect with loved ones who live far away. It can be so powerful for the elderly who struggle with loneliness to feel closer to their family.
