Because you're reliant on the registrar and potentially a third party operator running the authoritative name servers? You're already reliant on those things, regardless of whether you want TLS or not.

I am a very big proponent of building things yourself (rather than using an off-the-shelf/existing solution that's similar) - whether that is tooling, or applications, or hosting your own services, and I'm particularly vocal about not making your business be shackled to specific services run by others (e.g. I'm of the opinion that offering exclusively "social login" is a huge red flag), and even I don't start complaining about "well this stack isn't really self hosted, you're still relying on the registrar for your domain!"
They don't render well even outside of the huge smartphone use case because they lack trivial formatting present even in the old printed medium (and even typewriters were richer, could retype the same char on the same spot to make it stand out or use underlines)
That is very much not inheritance. It’s literally just sugar for delegation: calls which delegate to embedded structs execute in the embedded struct’s context.

And the embedded struct has to be part of the struct definition, it can’t be snuck in by reopening the class and include-ing new bits.
And 22:17 from where it erupts!
In my experience it means the AI will waste tokens apologizing for it's short comings and ignoring task prompts in favour of it's alignment.
I have read and bookmarked the Part 1, and I love your notes.

I make my own chili oil, and grow my own chilis.

I once had this stupid, macho, self-imposed rule that for each plant I grew, the plant must earn its right-of-passage by way of myself eating a single pod from each plant.

I think it was 2017, I had chiltepins, Naga Jolokias (red, yellow, chocolate). I had Jalapenos (green and red) and Habaneros (red and yellow). I also grew Moruga Scorpion peppers. That year it was only the red scorpions.

I had somehow managed to survive what I had thought, and according to the literature, was the toughest one to get through, that being the Naga. My roommate bore witness to this, I was in pain for about 20 minutes and then I was fine again.

Once the Moruga scorpions had ripened, I decided I would put one of them through the same, erm, test.

Seemed fine at first, but a few minutes later my stomach started to cramp to the extent that I could no longer move. I was laying down flat on my sofa and begging for death, not really knowing what to do. Another ten minutes and projectile vomiting ensued, all over my new rug, under my coffee table. The relief was so great that the new rug may as well have been a Mac Pro or something of equal value and I wouldn't have been bothered.

Anyway (and back to the chili oil topic). I harvested all those, put them into my food dehydrator, ground them up into a chili powder with a spice grinder, and made oils and sauces which are famous to this very day.

Bring on Part 3!
This is a AMD centric view but the problem is much wider, it includes other OS platforms (eg Android & Apple platforms) and other hardware vendors (eg intel, mobile chipsets) as well. After all game APIs were also victim to the same kind of "code to the driver" circumstance.

I agree that correctness and robustness of the vendor impolementations went poorly, but it's fixable if there was commitment between vendors, the infighting leading to Apples departure must not have helped that side either.

In the end I think including the high level compilers and APIs in the proprietary driver stack responsibility is unsustainable. Microsoft seems to have a better model, or there could be even a standard JIT code consumed by drivers that emitted by open source stacks shared across platforms. The latter way would also better support development of nicer GPU languages.
There are so many examples in the insect world of mind control its truly bizarre.

The other day I encountered an example in David Goulson's recent book Silent Earth (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/56470413-silent-earth) that I did not know yet about; the emerald cockroach wasp (ampulex compressa).

Rough transcription; for its reproduction, the wasp injects a cockroach with poison to paralyze it, then stings it in exactly that part of the brain responsible for its flight reflex to make it docile. After knibbling a bit on the cockroach's antennae and enjoying the hemolymph seeping out of the cockrach, the wasp takes the cockroach by its antennae and, even though it is much bigger than the wasp, directs it to its nest like a dog on a leech. In the nest of the cockroach the wasp lays an egg, which soon hatches a larvae that in turn proceeds to eat the cockroach alive while it is still dazed...And this is just the top of the ice berg.
I read the article and in my opinion it fails to present compelling arguments or evidence as to why XMPP is much worse off because Google once implemented it. Sounds like there was massive growth thanks to them coming, and massive loss when they left.

Interestingly it sounds like other implementors capitulated to some bad behavior on Google's part to the detriment of others, and there are probably some good lessons to learn there.
Wait, so the Lord of the Rings, being a derivative fan fiction work of mythology, is not copyrightable? Cool beans.

I assume the same is true of all of Disney's works too.

Perhaps you're unaware, but that problem can be largely mitigated by DNSSEC, which is why it's considered a requirement to make DANE practical.
Microsoft has no taste.
In 15+ years of writing Ruby for production I can't think of a single time where the distinction between blocks and procs caused a problem. Blocks are a syntactic element, procs are a data type (that you can construct with a block). I honestly don't even know where the problem is supposed to come from.
I think the key here (similar to what happened to Blackberry-RIM which was sued by NTP) is that the ITC has stepped in before other courts or the Patent Office have had their final say. The argument being that Masimo would be harmed by the importation, while the ban will cost Apple $Billions. Rocket-dockets and the ITC are useful tools if you're the plaintiff in getting a big settlement.

NTP had it's patents invalidated shortly after RIM settled for most of a $B, but it didn't matter since BB couldn't afford to have their email servers turned off. Apple probably can afford this. I'm not sure if the patents are in reexam or not, but I'd expect them to be.

He’s probably happy resting on his laurels and cashing the checks.
The way they went about pumping their IPO / stock by getting blue-collar influencers to shill it, it gave the impression that they were taking advantage of desperate people who were trying not to miss out on the pandemic stock market recovery like they'd missed out on the post-2008 boom.
I find a lot of things are expensive simply because the business owners live in an expensive area, and this unfortunately rarely results in a vastly superior product. Yes, I'm referring to a lot of DTC brands based out of SF. It's very telling judging from the marketing on just how much they spend to convince you their stuff is superior. I've started to negatively correlate ads vs quality and instead seek brands that don't spend much on marketing, but are still known. Those companies offer true value.
That's only true if you are not distributing your code. If you want to kill portability just involve MSVC in anything.
Wait so help me understand this - how did the store revoke the existing activation lock?

Or did this happen because OP forgot to setup FindMy when they first got the device?

I agree with this. If you use some software (and its author cares about internet points), you can at least give it that star. It's better than paying with money, and if you are requesting a feature it makes even more sense to pay with a single click of a mouse. Show some appreciation, people
I’m happy for OP, but this is for the most part working as intended.

Ownership is hard to establish in a world where selling 2nd hand and gifting items exists.
Last thing you want is to facilitate a boomerang scam or give an abusive partner control over someone’s device.

As far as I know Find My is opt-out nowadays and while Apple could see if they could tweak the onboarding language a bit to warn people of potential bad outcomes, you want to keep onboarding clean in general and including all ifs and buts for every feature would make that impossible.

I think there’s also something to be said for the lack of curiosity amongst users these days.
Apple publishes manuals for all their devices which go into great detail and get updated with every major OS update.

Devices also offer up a tour (macOS) and tips (iOS) that go over useful features. And there’s of course the option to look into features yourself.
Aside: excruciating one hundred paragraphs about stuff he said previously, recently, or in another lifetime, before getting to the actual topic and title subject of the article. Geez. I don't need articles to be transcripts of podcast-esque rambling. Get on with it!
I never understood why people put so much effort into fangames, fanfiction, etc. I mean - great, they're inspired! No copyright infringement there. Share it with the world.

I feel like these days, real creativity is punished, and only 'meme'-able things get rewarded.
Texas generally seems to have chosen an odd path politically, which to me has been strangely highlighted by their failure to supply their own people with electricity. Aside from the usual left-right dichtomy¹ one could start to consider to just elect people who at least pretend to care about the problem. Electricity has become kinda important.

¹: A divide that is seen more as a centrist — far-right divide from my european perspective.
It is saying "this person has a promising career and has success a lot of people would kill for, would have retired very comfortably, but got greedy and threw it all away."

It's not specifically about Amazon, it's saying he was basically set up for the American dream already.
Usually you have to provide another piece of information like the first 5 letters of the last name or something. That's definitely not good that they show you a name by just putting in an account number.
You can't pretend that Apple doesn't set themselves up for the criticism. They're the largest company globally, completely control all major facets of their devices and struggle to admit to adamant and obvious design failure (eg. Butterfly Keyboard, anti-repair DRM, single-vendor App Store, browser lockdown, etc.).

When Apple is wrong, fixing the problem yourself isn't always an option. Reactions like this shouldn't surprise you if you've seen what HN has to say about Meta, Microsoft and Google.
Because if you want to "sell" your software so that people download the application and even contribute to the project, you should give them a reason. Otherwise, why would someone use this (or even bother to take a look at it) instead of an alternative that is decade-old and trusted?
Similarly to how recipes can't be copyrighted, but the text prefacing it can be.
> are they not implicitly accepting the ToS?

Courts generally do not find that ToS can be accepted implicitly, even in situations where they are actually shown to the user: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browsewrap#Case_law
The TL;DR is you dump a bootloader (eg: the 446 bytes of GRUB that would reside in a Master Boot Record) into a Windows-accessible file and then add a selection to Windows Boot Manager (or NTLDR) that points to that file. It will then happily execute whatever is there, such as GRUB or the Windows 9x bootloader, and hand over control.

Yes, this means if GRUB subsequently has its own selection for Windows Boot Manager you can go and dance between the two forever. :P

Seeing as the system is booting into Windows Boot Manager first, I think it should satisfy any SecureBoot demands if you want to actually boot GRUB or something afterwards.
ABL is not that important if you don't mind babysitting the printer. But it's an amazing quality of life improvement otherwise. Especially if you're printing stuff that needs precision.

Manually leveling an ender 3 was tolerable to me for about a month while learning 3d printing and figuring out if it was something I would be into long term, but over the course of a year I went from that, to trying various ABL sensors and bed replacements, to now a custom built Mercury One.1 with 3 point kinematic auto bed leveling, and it's such a night and day difference in terms of usability.

It physically levels the bed and automatically determines the z offset, so I don't have to do anything when using different print surfaces and when operating at different temperatures/in an enclosure. Heat expansion is pretty noticeable (I've destroyed pei plates with the nozzle by calculating z offset when cold but attempting to print when hot), and while sticking your hand under the bed of a printer printing PLA is not that dangerous, with ABS the bed is at 110C, not at all worth the risk, so autoleveling is very helpful.

It makes it so much easier to just submit a print job, forget about it and find it finished perfectly, without involving any finicky adhesives.
This is true in the US, but the opposite was true abroad. Which is I prefer to spend on experiences abroad.

Here in the US, experiences are very expensive. Going to a spa for a few hours, $300 to $500+. Buying the things they use at the spa, it's like $60.
No joke. I’m dead serious.
"stable UI" is not a high bar.
That's a rather daft take.
WP.29 Cybersecurity Vehicle Regulation Compliance (2021)
This is partially true, but a pretty large chunk of idiomatic Ruby is focused on Enumerable method chaining, transforming arrays and hashes, slicing and dicing strings, etc. A language that was totally dedicated to message-passing nirvana wouldn't have regexes as a built-in data type with a literal syntax (or dictionaries, ranges, and so on)
> Everyone who doesn’t throw that useless weird dongle out with the box will lose it immediately

So they'd be no worse off than they are the way things currently work, except with the ability for the few who do care about this sort of thing having a better workaround than "try to email the CEO and pray that he somehow notices"

> This is not a technical problem and you cannot fix it with a technical solution

Funny, that's exactly how I see bricking a laptop to try to curtail thieves, only it actually does solve the problem, but only by creating a worse one

Below is a quick and dirty script I use to make a single HTML file from an EPUB file. It outputs a _script_ that when run will output the HTML files in the EPUB as a single file to stdout. It is not perfect, e.g., sometimes the order of the HTML files may need to be adjusted, but I rarely bother. I open the HTML file in links and optionally save as .txt. I don't care for UTF-8 or other non-ASCII characters.

EPUB to single HTML file.

Iceland sits on top of the Mid Atlantic Ridge where the continental plates are being pushed apart. More common volcanoes are associated with subduction zones where plates collide.
The weirdest thing to me is the variation in gas pricing. Within 100 miles I see gas under $4 and up to $6 on the same day. The most striking was two gas stations on a corner where one was $3.85 and the other $5.30. Even weirder (anecdotally), the cheapest gas seemed to come to the wealthier spots first while poor neighborhoods stayed high.

I've been wanting to use mqtt as a mq, and been getting resistance from the other devs because it's alien technology...which is funny, since it's more scalable than a lot of webby things.

Domain expertise can be a liability as well as an advantage.
agreed. so given that french grammar bears striking resemblance to german/english, and given that they’re all info-european languages, why are we quick to reject the germanic roots of the french language and classify it as romance? here i don’t know much history but i won’t be surprised if we learn that the association was deliberate, in order to elevate french to the status of latin? i.e. language fit for intellectual work?
The problem is that an outdated inefficient Rankine Refrigerant Heat controls 99% of the market and in extreme climate temperatures (High Delta Ts) the Rankine COP efficiencies are 0-1 in the example of - or + 10-20C , virtually useless and use excess Kwh. The HVAC OEMs are about the slowest good ole boys to adapt or innovate. Our co, Sencera (sincere.com) is mfg the 1st Stirling Heat Pump that replaces Rankine Refrig Heat Pumps @same and delivers 30% HIGHER COP efficiency over Rankine Heat Pumps and is performs even better in extreme cold/hot climates. Trust and used by NASA Stirling was previously known as super expensive and used in the RPS systems in the Space shuttles. We reconfigured Stirling to be low cost ($600 mfg cost 3 Tom/10Kwh Units) with a Patented all Rotary design and utilize Helium or Nitrogen(NON toxic and NON flammable) with working prototypes with independent lab verified COP efficiencies HIGHER than Rankine. In 2024 you'll see the comm'l entry of our 1st Home Units then we scale to EVs and Comm'l Cold Chain apps. Since 100% of every Rankine Heat Pump leaks in all Homes, Schools, Hospitals and Businesses and depends on Refrigerants, the lazy HVC market's new spin is "sustainable" Refrigerants, such B.S, they contain harmful CFC/HFCs or in Europe you have R-290, a Propane derivative, try lighting a match next to it and see what happens:). The Industry is so old and apathetic it's going to see a refreshing disruptive change maker in Stirling as an end user option that can serve Colder/otter climates and significantly reduce Kwh/Utility Bills. mike.draper@sencera.com
The headline doesn’t seem perfectly accurate (aside from being grammatically incorrect). This issue was discovered by security researchers, and there’s no evidence it was actively exploited by real hackers. (If it was, KLM would have to report it to the authorities, and then we’d surely know about it)
You're replacing Ruby scripts at work but you couldn't understand the syntax of the Ruby excerpt above?
Not all people experience thought the same way. Some people (like me) find it no problem to compose a sentence in advance while speaking some previous words. The speaking doesn't conflict with the composition. Some people can count, do math, or keep time silently in their head while reading. Other people can't do that because their thoughts and language processing are linked differently somehow.

For me, I prefer to dictate to my Android phone in contexts where most people choose to type, such as in a short message. It's faster than typing on-screen, and the way I think I am able to compose ahead in a way I can't do while typing. The dictation is so good these days that there are relatively few mistakes and ambiguities to correct, and the UIs for doing so have become easier.
We should consider the fact that AI ain’t a company, it is a feature, the same as highly intelligent people per se don’t earn tons of money.

Paradoxically we are in a phase of technological stagnation. Cloud movement was/is maybe the latest paradigm shift for a couple of years to decades to come.

AI will accelerate features and won’t mark a product category itself, same as gifted people are capable of outperforming others in intellectual fields, but don’t necessarily need to.

The mundane stuff like generating text is what is AI paradoxically needed for. (Imagine that, that humanity’s greatest gift is now outsourced.)

This is what makes AI so hard to grasp. We know what it is, but it is hard to applying it in concrete business contexts. “OK Google analyze my company with 100.000 workers” won’t happen soon. Society needs to take care of possible side effects first.
Side note: Xanthan Gum is an incredibly awesome stabiliser which 'professionalizes' home-made chili sauces by giving it an even texture and consistency. Just take care to use the right amount and pre-dissolve it before adding it to your bio weapon.
I fail to see a reason where it would be a violation because of the following reasons:

1) it's a response to a user's request, i.e., not initiated by the repo author

2) it depends on consensus of the user.

3) it's not automated (most of the items from the policy are related to automation).

4) the repo author has no obligation whatsoever of maintaining the project. He is not paid or forced to do it.

5) if the user really wants to apply this change or disagrees with this practice, he/she can always fork it.

That said, I understand that it may still not feel "fair" compared to other projects that don't follow this practice. Or the feeling of "wanting to help but you're asked to do some things first".

Companies already do that to accept your pull requests though [0], which takes way longer than giving a star - and I didn't see a complaint about it on HN

This is not a great argument given that Apple is in the business of selling Apple devices.

My original incentive for spending the last 15 years and thousands of dollars in the Apple ecosystem is that their products would "just work" for my family.

Nowadays I'm spending hours on the phone with our daughter who's in tears because Apple keeps locking her out of her iPad or laptop.

I'm also not going to get into my mom having a lifetime's worth of photographs locked up in her iMac that we're literally only going to be able to get hold of if I take an overseas trip to England to do it myself. (btw, if anyone can recommend an Apple shop in the south of England who actually know what they're doing…)

So guess where Dad is shopping these holidays?

Yup, not Apple!
You can always use parentheses for method calls. I've worked on codebases that mandated it. It feels a little weird in some contexts but it's fine.
