I meant it in a way where you still need Apples "permission" to distribute the app, through the developer license and notarization. Without it you/we couldn't sign the app causing trouble for the end user, or am I wrong here?
If you have been learning how to build websites and web applications and still can't get your hands on a practical project, this is the right series for you.

Zooboole takes you through how to:
- Plan a website project
- Draft it
- Prototype it
- Code it with HTML
- Style it with CSS
- Then added to it some PHP
- And add some Javascript trick

The key secret of the whole project is to teach you how to combine all these technologies to build a full project.
I don't think it's very reasonable to think "AI" is more of an existential threat than global warming and nuclear weapons. In fact I'd say that's a ridiculous claim.

The only way I can see AI causing total extinction is a Terminator-like scenario where an AI completely takes over, self-sustains by manufacturing killer robots and running power plants etc. It's literally science fiction. CharGPT is cool and all, really impressive stuff, but it's nowhere near some sort of superintelligent singularity that wipes us out.

We don't even know if it's possible to build something like that, and even if we did there's a huge gap between creating it and it actually taking over somehow.

Global warming and nukes are two things we know could wipe out pretty much everyone. Sure it might not be a complete extinction but we know for a fact it can be a near extinction which is more than can be said for "AI". And as far as I'm concerned a full extinction and a near extinction are basically equally bad.

I also think you're underestimating by saying they won't kill everyone. They might. Nuclear fallout is a thing, you don't have to be nuked to die from nukes. Nuclear winter is another thing. Climate change could end up making the atmosphere toxic or shut down most oxygen production which would certainly be a total extinction.

These are real threats, AI is hypothetical.
Maybe. But it definitely would have been avoided if everyone was riding bikes.
There's a danger here, of which I imagine they're aware - higher-order effects are very hard to estimate in chance and magnitude, or in how your actions specifically contributed to them. This makes them perfect for justifying whatever you want, intentionally or accidentally. Overemphasize some positive second-order effects, fail to notice some negative second-order effects, and suddenly your first-order selfish choice looks like a charity. Societies and markets are dynamic systems, so predicting outcomes is less like predicting path of a rocket from Newton's laws, and more like predicting the weather.
If they are not sustainable they will go bankrupt. Are you saying all those investors are dumb and just burning money for the fun of it?! That's... interesting. More gain for us consumers then - subsidized goods and services!
This isn't totally unusual. In language like Haskell you can put something with a maximally general type (a "bottom", e.g. `undefined`) in as a placeholder anywhere in the program and your compile will go through. If you want to get even fancier you can put a "typed hole" that says something like "I don't know exactly what this is yet, but it's definitely going to return a list of ints".
Very relevant article and discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35670129

"GFS" describes the hobby vs the gear, but hobbyists will also find themselves somewhere along the "doing" vs "discussing" axis as well.
Solution: make that only for that specific viewport, ignore it for the rest. Hard unreasonable clients are not so common as people depict them to be, at least in my experience. I do have a spidey sense after years of client work in sorting them out right away, maybe, but even stupid clients are reasonable if you’re able to make business points about their requests
a lot of older ex-Yugoslavians

Hm, more like "some", probably "very few", definitely not "a lot."

In my experience these people are from very mixed families, for example: has a Muslim mum, Slovak dad who was a Yugoslav communist bureaucrat, born in Belgrade, married to a Slovenian army man, lives in Vienna and is 75 years old.

Everyone else finds one branch of their ethnic composition to identify with.
> one should just embrace it and say “my hobby is collecting guitar gear, and my niche is things that Jimi Hendrix used or things that make sounds like he did”

GAS is a form of delusion. You are asking people to “just” self-recognize and somehow self-fix their deeply rooted psychological problems.
You stated that the country only claimed that it was called Yugoslavia, but it was obviously called like this, and it was accepted as such. The question of it being a succession state is not really relevant for the name. Its status as a "sovereign state" was also never questioned. Macedonia's name was never accepted (until the dispute was resolved recently by naming the country North Macedonia), and it was always referred to as FYROM - Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. This was again obviously not the case for Yugoslavia.

A top-level domain might be of cultural importance, but it's a big stretch this was the case for Yugoslavia in 1992 when the internet barely existed and the .yu domain existed for three years (according to the article). So in reality it's a nothing burger, unless you have an axe to grind.

Your disagreement won't change the fact that there are no resources on Mars that we cannot already collect here on Earth, for a fraction of the cost, and without constant risk of someone dying to explosive decompression.

One big problem with two-wheel motorized transport is the emissions: motorcycles and scooters have horrible emissions. They're also really dangerous.

E-bikes are becoming really popular though, in some places. They're about the same speed as regular bicycles, but much easier and less tiring (/sweaty) to ride for most people, especially on hills. Here in Tokyo, every mother with small children has one now it seems.
I'd say this is far from useless. Especially when building your own engine, you can look at other implementations and reuse elements that you need. The company I work for specializes in video game ports. Getting only the source code, without documentation, or a back-channel to ask questions on a regular basis is standard for us. Still, we manage to get by just fine.

I am thankful for every piece of code that is opened up, especially when it's published under a permissive license.

The devs likely don't have any intentions to build / support a community around this release, which is perfectly fine. No one is stopping you from building your project / community around it either.

Think about it like Doom / Quake engines, they are pretty popular as well, but didn't come with a lot of documentation or support from id software.
What is the real solution for highly complex technology like IT, as end times are coming?

It's a critical issue. Resources are wasted, and soon we won't be able to waste as much as we did, as the abundance era is coming to an end. The desire and need for higher efficiency through highly complex technology is only to increase, as the population gets older and older.

I can easily see mandatory IT training (like the current mandatory army training in some countries) and states standardizing certain technologies to avoid fragmentation and thus freezing progress, for good reasons. Like forbidding any database to be used in production except 3 most complete ones or banning all web frameworks except React and Svelte (arbitrary). It's not that they won't want progress, but they won't be able to afford progress and the resulting skill fragmentation in the IT workers while people are hungry and money is ever tighter.
No need to wait a thousand years. It takes only a brief tour of our current world, physical or virtual, to notice that other cultures exist and seem strange to us, as might ours to them.

Upgradable Read Write Lock for Go
Ooh. I have a turny-knob on my keyboard that I use for debugging. One "click" right hits F10 which does a step over in the code, clicking "in" on the button hits f11 which does steps into the code. Having an analog pedal so I can go through my code like a gas pedal on a car would be sweet.
> A good counter example could perhaps be table top wargaming, e.g. Warhammer and the likes. Surely, people who call that their hobby like to play the (various different) games. But a lot of people love building and painting their miniature armies just as much. And some people hate it. So what's the scoop? If you enjoy the building and painting of new minis more than actually playing the game they're made for, you're doing it wrong?

If you enjoy building and painting miniatures then it's not wrong. It's a different hobby from wargaming though.

> Look, hobbies are for your enjoyment. If buying gear or trying to build it yourself gives you joy, more power to you.

Sure. But a lot of people find themselves accumulating a closet full of junk that was supposed to help with a fun part that they never actually get around to. Which is really just another form of consumerism; while I'm open to the idea that some kinds of collecting can be good hobbies, there's definitely a kind of pseudo-hobby of buying things that all too often ends up as an addiction-like behaviour that doesn't actually bring people much joy or satisfaction.

> The acquisition of gear (be it buying or building) is not a means to an end - it is part of the hobby.

If it brings you joy, yes. If it just quiets the cravings for a while, no.
I totally agree - but its sad the answer is invariably "her" with the woman having to stop their career to raise children and the reason is nearly always the husband earns more

My wife has had to stop her career to home educate my autistic daughter as the education system failed her. The key decision on who does the home education was economic, although she is doing a much better job than i ever would

When I look at the facebook groups for others in the same situation its always the woman stopping her career
> Cloud computing is the future of all computing infrastructure.

I absolutely dread that future. I want all my computation back to be local, doesn't matter to me if I own the cloud computer or not as long as I also don't own the environment it is embedded in. If the connection to it isn't mine and neither is its source of power then I don't really control "my" cloud computer.

> I disagree, the underlying bias a person has is irrelevant if they can prove to others the correctness of what they are saying.

Which isn't the case for everything, and if it is the case, it isn't done always (most of the time).

> You are wanting to put people in boxes and stereotype as if they're not capable of compensating for bias

I am not. Capability doesn't matter if they aren't even aware of their own bias or don't care.

> understanding others' perspective.

No, relevance?

> However, where fact or analysis of information is involved, it is the correctness and quality of what is said that matters not who said it.

Even if something is correct the information they give might be selective while neglecting other perspectives because of their bias, may it be on purpose or not.

Tldr: I think you portrait people as perfectly self aware and free of self interest, which isn't the case on reality which is exactly why groups of people show biases.
At least in some parts of Italy (I was in the Lombardy region) you pay an annual garbage tax where they provide you yearly with a predetermined amount of bags containing an RFID tag. You can still ask for more bags if needed, and I guess that in that case your tax would get adjusted depending on usage (which they track with the RFIDs). Kind of unsettling though that they could link your trash back to you.
To steal an old meme: Men will literally come up with new "syndromes" instead of going to therapy.

GAS/GFS sounds like a regular Tuesday on ADHD. I want to play a racing sim. Better learn intricate details of electronics, physics and car mechanics so I can build my own brake pedal. Is the brake pedal working? No. Have I spent even a single minute playing a racing sim since starting this project? Also no. But I have taught myself how to build my own 3D printer from scratch and I also never will do that ever again.
It's not a rumour, it's a linguistic fact. It's not exactly the same, as the American English shifted as well -- but many obvious differences, like rhoticism, used to be a norm in the UK as well. In fact, they are still very present in some British accents (just remember the stereotypical Scottish accent), but have changed in "official" accents like RP.
Interesting that your experience says Bosnia is the most yugonostalgic. The most batshit crazy Greater Serbia talk I hear, even to the point where Yugoslavia is viewed as an anti-Serb mistake, is always among older men in villages in the Republika Srpska. They outdo their peers over in Serbia, and they might even be ahead of their coethnics in northern Kosovo. In the Federation, Muslims often express happiness at being independent, they just wish their independent state didn’t have such a dysfunctional system. I have seldom interacted with Croatians in the Federation, though.

My own experience has found that ethnic Macedonians are the most yugonostalgic, which might be understandable since 1) they had linguistic autonomy outside the acrimonious quarrel over "Serbo-Croatian", and 2) they avoided the wars. But all this is anecdotal and I can see how others might have very divergent experiences.

> Just because you adopt a change doesn't mean you'll adopt an outcome.

You don't adopt changes. You adopt or emulate good examples. This means processes, and the goal of processes is to deliver an outcome. It's not change for the sake of change.

Also, when a nation lags behind so much in a fundamental area, just taking a step in the right direction has a major positive impact on the quality of life of those affected by it. As a good example, see Obamacare.

>I still wish we tried harder to heal the "original equipment from the manufacturer" we are all born with

You know that this is hard. Are you saying we should just spend more in that particular area instead of spending on kidney transplants?

Eventually research will improve and we may need less transplants, but in the meantime they're a great solution, and according to a quick search those transplants actually save the healthcare system money.

Research is great. But the flashy solution turns out to be also great, pays for itself, and yields concrete results today. Sometimes I think there's too much of a reaction against flashy, to the point that people discount the flashy things that are good.

We should judge things on the outcomes and the costs, not superficially on whether they feel boring or flashy!
My eyes disagree, reading papers on any digital medium that isn't powered by e-ink is a big pain.
.cs is especially interesting since it was the ISO-code, and so would have been the domain for the union state of Serbia and Montenegro (2003-2006). However it was ultimately not used, before the country divided.
Absolutely stupid they didn’t simply freeze the TLD - no new registrations but the existing ones continue to be resolved.

Honestly seems a bit intentionally nuclear.

Reason being, there are three drivers for vulkan on Linux with AMD GPUs.

The first one is RADV, part of the mesa project and will continue to receive updates with mesa.

AMDVLK comes in two variants, one open source and one closed source. The open source variant (and maybe the closed source one?) are affected here.

If you want to check which one you're using, try `vulkaninfo | grep driverName`. If it says `radv`, you're good.

I once spend a ( drunken ) evening discussing with a neurosurgeon about the possibility to add a prosthetic tail to the human body.

The base structures to control a tail are present in our brain, sure we lost it a few million years ago but still a tail is much more realistic than e.g a second pair of arms.
This feels like the absolute best way to give an introduction to shaders, given that they're completely graphical. The way the interactive code is embedded within the article, instead of being a link to an excercise works super well.

Thanks a lot for making this, keep doing what you do!
Yes, but that’s our childish instinct to be affronted at being held to account for what we know we’re responsible for.
I am a bit disturbed by collecting hobbies to be honest. When there is some novelty, archival or scientific value to a collection, that is different and fascinating, it's the purely consumerist collecting that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

It's purely acquisitive and about the buying and getting and just seems quite sad and empty. Those afflicted become slaves to the companies pumping out items purely for this class of consumer. For example, "limited editions" and such are not rare because the product warrants it, it's just designed scarcity to press the buttons of the collectors and extract the most money from them. Or it's bidding wars on vintage items like wine where huge price inflation happens just for the collection kudos not the virtues of the item itself.

For example, I like fountain pens, but I can't really read r/fountainpens because it's mostly people building huge collections of pens and getting excited about buying a new pattern or colour of pen they already own. Nothing makes me sadder than seeing their full collections of 100s of fantastic tools that will sit idle for the vast majority of their life until the owner passes and a relative has to liquidate things they don't understand.

It looks like a dysfunction to me - a stimulation seeking addiction which is not satisfied by the next acquisition and will never fill the emptiness, the need, the dream, of the collector. I know people will be super defensive about their collecting but I would love for that money and energy to be redirected towards higher degrees of self-actualisation. It feels like a failure to scale the Maslow's hierarchy of needs and get stuck in a loop down the bottom. Instead of creating novelty or growing, there is something safe, comfortable and unchallenging to just acquire.
As a general rule, the third article/book/tutorial you read is the one where you "get it".
Ask HN: Anyone else getting overcharged by Aliexpress lately?
I use Aliexpress quite extensively. Amazon never caught up here in Europe and most likely never will. I never had issue with Ali. Its only downside is the waiting time(21 days on average). Anyway, in my last three orders I have noticed discrepancy in what amount I am shown and what amount I got charged. With first two orders, I have attributed it to the coins that you can collect for discounts. In your cart you can select individual items to pay for and so I did that and saw different prices than I paid and I thought it was because I ordered two items at once so the coins got applied differently. I contacted the support but cancelling the orders seemed fastest solution.

Yesterday I made another order and today I noticed the discrepancy again. This time there were no discounts or coins involved, it was just wrong. I see the large amount in the order itself but e-mail and in message notification i see the lower amount, just like with the previous orders. I have contacted the support again, but it was useless eve nwhen I provided screenshots. The order got shipped and it was only little over €1 so I can live with that but I will not accept this behavior willingly going forward. So I am wondering whether I am alone in this or they indeed have a bug in their system?
Yeah, that's also racism.
