> Third party screens with genuine Apple cables and logos? Why should CBP treat that differently?

Because reselling a genuine cable is completely legal even if you attach it to a third-party screen. Swapping logos is not comparable because the cable provides a genuine function completely unrelated to the logo that happens to be printed on it.

> How does CBP know you aren’t going to sell them as genuine parts?

That isn't CBPs problem, its Apple's problem to identify and enforce their trademark if someone actually does attempt to sell them as genuine parts.
I’ve observed the exact opposite. Python teams are much slower to ship features than Go teams once the codebase grows to a nontrivial size.
I’ve taken CS162 (operating systems) a while back at UC Berkeley and that along with networking, CS168, were my favorite classes. And they probably were the most useful going into the industry as well, so I highly recommend that you dig in even if you don’t find folks to study with. Makes me wonder if someone already created a service to match study groups for open content classes from top universities like this

But I feel like you're low-key saying we should never be moving money a single inch cuz the unicorn opportunity fairy might precipitate. Why do we even make them pay taxes, what if they had that tax money for their M&A department? Where does the logic end? Does't the money ever get bedsores from all the luxuriating you're advocating for here?

Edit: also who's saying this wouldn't be applied symmetrically across the market to the extent that it fundamentally moots the issue of any one specific player not being ready and liquid enough to pounce on the opportunity. If everyone rises or falls in turn, the abillity to engage in opportunities wouldn't appear to be fundamentally altered since the aggregate abillity to pay would be conserved in some sense, if only proportionally so)

California and San Francisco by proxy have some of the most compassionate policies to help people down on their luck.

The California social safety net has helped me out of homelessness before because I have no family to fall back on.

But what sucks is that all the focus of California's policies goes on the shitheads who take advantage of it and turn San Francisco streets to shit...when in reality it's helped quite a few people.

I purchased a sailboat recently and and finding out that rules have had to be made by coastal cities all over the country in the past decade or so because squatters exploited anchoring out in harbors and just let their boats go to shit causing the city to have to clean up dangerous wrecks in the harbor. so it's not easy nowadays to find an long-term anchorage.

Same thing with van life. Theres a lot of upscale hardworking people in van life who are educated and friendly and polite and don't trash out neighborhoods but the scumbags ruin it.

I kind of look at capitalism and communism the same way. Both beautiful systems that get ruined by scumbags.

how do we stop good systems from being ruined by scumbags without getting rid of the system itself?
> no government or human has authority to regulate the fact that a human exists

All laws are ultimately backed up by threats of violence. Including the laws of whatever country you live in.

Governments around the world and throughout history have routinely decided who gets to live and who gets to die.

I am not happy about this but it is unfortunately true.

You can make every claim you want about lack of authority but it is easily overruled by a fist in your face.

Not having a government simply means that there will be more than one militant group enforcing things using violence. See “failed state”.
The generating function approach is the standard way of solving recurrences. In that sense, it isn't beautiful, just routine. But yes the first time I'd seen it I felt my body shudder at that sorcery.
That is fair enough. I did not realize this was enacted about 5 years ago.
It is not a funding problem. These countries (ie: Third-world and less developed) never had these research structures in the first place. So they are lacking on guidance on how to execute. A good starting point is to look at government revenues. Indonesia has half the revenue of the government of Belgium. Belgium has less people than Jakarta.

I appreciate your reminiscence. It is sad that places like this don't exist or are much fewer in number. They're like used bookstores where browsing to be surprised is part of the fun.

I would occasionally schlepp to an electronics surplus store in the San Fernando Valley to look around. Even when I didn't have a project in mind I would usually come up with something based on what I saw that day and would leave with the needed stuff. I checked their website just now and saw that they had closed permanently a few weeks ago after 50+ years.
Good points here.

I certainly see the opportunity for start-ups to break through here. I just don't have much faith in ones where GPT-4 is their core tech.

On the other hand, companies going after the entire vertical where AI is a feature and not the product, or well-funded companies with innovative models that outperform OpenAI is totally a possibility.
Every science publication keeps saying that headline... but the images I see back are so boring it's never going to last in the public mind the way the Hubbel did.

Until then, I'll just keep being told how amazing Webb is without really feeling it.
Classic Hacker News. Some guy posts likely incorrect random speculation, and the comments are full of even more speculation.

The truth is Intel makes two versions of most of their WiFi cards: the normal version, and a "low cost" version where some of the internal components are missing and those functions instead offloaded to the Intel chipset on the motherboard.

Sort of like the "WinModems" of WiFi cards.

If you want one that works, buy the correct version.
Doing some research on the terminology, I guess motor system is the term I was looking for. I am not a biologist so I am not familiar with the terminology.
Why are you conflating third party parts with counterfeits? If you actually read the article the reason the shipment was seized had nothing to do with the screens, it was the logo on the reused original parts that Apple believed were counterfeit.

Besides, I'm not American so maybe my view is different, but if a company can pay money to a government agency for increased policing for their benefit, and that government agency raids businesses under the direction of that companies representatives, that is a private force. E: And the fact that it's open for any company to use does not make it better in any way whatsoever.
You either own your car and the connectivity to it, or you don’t.

That's not like what is happening here. In your hypothetical situation, you are selling bags featuring the Chanel brand.

In the first situation from the article, the products seized by the CBP only included Apple branding on internal components which were created by Apple and not modified.

In the second situation from the article, the products did not feature any Apple branding at all. They were clearly branded as OnePlus devices, which they were.

This is cool.

What is sad is that it has to rely on a library of completion specs. It shows what kind of stone age foundations we are building on top of. The world would have been a much better place if CLIs themselves defined strict interfaces using standard data structures. Not only for auto completion, also gives much more accurate error checking of bash scripts. Same goes for data piped in and out of command.
Ah, I like that. The wire I get from old lawn signs is steel though, not quite so easy to hand-form around sharp corners like that. I use a steel pipe as a guide to bend it into S-hooks. Trying to match the dimension of a rectangular object would be tricky.
All communities have some form of government. It is just called “the elders” or “the council” or whatever instead.

All humans are a mix of good and evil. So you need a system in place to minimise the negative impact of this.

Right, it's like a torrent in that way. I have dozens of torrents where I am waiting for that one guy to -- bless his soul -- open up his torrent client and seed the last 14 bytes.

I guess the best thing to do if you own an Ape is to store the image on your HDD and put a copy in a safe-deposit box, and then pin it yourself whenever you can.
This is not a case of IP law being enforced. This is a case of the CBP using their power to punish Apple's competitors, despite no actual violations having occurred.
Nit: if number n is given in binary representation in the input, then an O(n)-algorithm runs in exponential time as n is an exponential function of log(n). Hence, log(n)^O(1)-time algorithms for the Fibonacci number are reasonable to exist, unless the decision version of the Fibonacci number is NP-hard.

Not big. Important papers get reproduced anyway in order to be extended/enhanced/build upon/benchmarked against.

That seems to be New York State soexific( rather than federal.
In the first situation from the article, it explicitly states briefly that they are “hybrid” parts:

> The screens that were seized are “hybrid” parts: the screens are third-party, but use a few original Apple parts like a flex cable that connects the screen to the phone. That invisible, internal part is marked with an Apple logo, which is enough to let the CBP seize the entire shipment.

Which brings up my Chanel handbag analogy of an Apple-branded flex cable, “sewn” onto a part they did not make; to create what CBP may reasonably interpret as a counterfeit product consistent with how “hybrids” in other categories are treated.

As for OnePlus; that one never made any sense and probably embarrassed Apple too because… it’s not like Walmart has had any problem selling AirPods knockoffs.
I think it's worth consulting with PT/pros who could give feedback on the ramp up period and the load you're putting yourself under. What I've read in my research is that you can feel fine for a while but if you're not building up methodically you can cause yourself some long term issues but with a delay.

Congrats on the weight loss and figuring out that you can be a runner. It's quite liberating. I was never a good runner even in peak competitive basketball conditioning in my late teens and thought I would never be a runner until a few years ago. Keep pushing!
We're talking about Chapter 11 here, which means the plane has already crashed and the court is deciding who gets what on what is left of the plane, which could still be somewhat valuable. People with golden parachutes already jumped off before the crash.
I know it's a bit weird...but I'm really getting into creating my own religious style structure around modern AI programs.

Originally I was interested as a concept for a story, but as an atheist who was a very devout Christian for a long time I really wondered if there is some modern twist on the structure of organised religion and replacing a traditional meta-physical source of knowledge for a real world one (or group of them).

It has essentially turned into a framework of ritualism based around core concepts of various religious structure...with the ability to 'hot swap' your 'god' or 'AI' or 'book' or whatever source of wisdom you seek to lead your decisions.

It is much more complicated than I thought, but it is super interesting to me and while I have nothing that yet really helps me any better than normal reason based skepticism...I do like the ability to engage in tribal style ritualism in a modern context.

I've been trying to name it but so far all I have come up with is Algoruspicy (Haurspicy using algorithms) or Nexialism (Connection based philosophy)
Most people wouldn't look at 25% change in distribution over a half century as a big effect, no. Look at all the other stuff (healthcare or TV prices, say) that have swung by two orders of magnitude. And again, wealth in absolute terms has gone up by twice that!

So, no, not by a lot. I think I stand by that. If you're genuinely upset over 25% fairness in a context where everything else looks so much better, my contention is that you're just looking for something to complain about.

You lost me. "That audience" is probably 80% of ST's market. If you're not talking about business as it exists then I don't know what your argument is about. It's certainly not responsive to the point I was making, which is that ST (and similar companies) is exposed to RISC-V as a business risk in a way that Intel is not.

It might be better for your joints to walk on the incline (treadmill) until you are lighter. Might be worth building a program with a personal trainer and mixing in some weight training. Apologies in advance if you've already done all of the above
Sure; but before you couldn't even use it for some problems because the problems were bigger than the context window.

For example, I was trying to generate an XSLT 3.0 transformation from one Json format to another. The two formats and description alone almost depleted my context window. In essence, it killed using GPT-4 for this project.

I use it daily, and I haven't had it spit out too much "nonsense" in spite of everyone constantly telling me how that's all it does. The quality of results are on-par with Stackoverflow (in good and bad ways).
While you are right, there is a reason why I used the way more constrained “your reasoning”, than “reasoning”.

Things are starting to remind me of the 2001-2003 bust, where a ton of companies whose entire business model was "lose money but get a lot of users" had to either shutdown or retool, and "making an actual profit" became more important than growth.
I'm not really a fan of dynamic linking and shared packages. It's an idea that developed on hand-maintained systems used to process data and run CLI apps.

Snaps and APKs seem to work much better for large apps on installs meant to be replaceable commodites that can always be rebuilt

I switched to Ubuntu recently, and I'm very glad I did. The app selection is much larger, and they just work without any fussing.

> Swapping logos is not comparable because the cable provides a genuine function completely unrelated to the logo that happens to be printed on it.

Not necessarily. The law cares about the brand, not the function. Morally, there’s a distinction; legally, I don’t see why the functionality has any relevance.

> Because reselling a genuine cable is completely legal even if you attach it to a third-party screen

CBP seized hybrid products, as mentioned above, all the time; even when no logo is present (honey with adulterations is a big problem). The claim it’s completely legal isn’t necessarily true. Individually selling a screen, or a ribbon cable, would probably have much better luck than the combination of the two.

> Here’s a thought experiment

We don't need a thought experiment! We already have an expert legal opinion!

> “Assuming that: (1) the cable bearing the Apple mark is a genuine Apple product, (2) the cable used on these screens is the same as the one Apple uses in the U.S., and (3) the importer/seller clearly communicates that the screens are a non-Apple aftermarket product, then Apple’s case for treating these as ‘counterfeit’ goods is very weak,” Perzanowski said in an email. “Refurbished or repaired products are generally permissible under trademark law’s first sale doctrine, so long as they are clearly labeled as such.”
In support of the above comment and from the linked Nature article:

The analysis estimates that 1.5–2% of all scientific papers published in 2022 closely resemble paper-mill works. Among biology and medicine papers, the rate rises to 3%.

The problem mainly lives in the "paper churn" "publish or perish" "look at us, we're relavant" domain, those papers that to be brutally honest are rarely read and have little impact.

Papers that start to be taken seriously and have any kind of impact don't last long if they've been faked, sooner or later some one will declare a problem with getting the same results or try to gain attention by exploring a different angle that reveals issues with the (assumed) foundational paper.
