You're Too Old for That: Age Discrimination in Japan Tech
If it were possible to keep threads topic-partitioned like that, we'd probably go for it, but unfortunately they all turn into a blend of everything-loosely-related. If all we can have is blenders we can at least avoid duplicate blenders (sometimes), is the idea.

I can imagine a more proactive way of doing it but it would require software support so the community could take care of properly distributing which comment to which thread.
> Rich people? Everyone wants iPhones, they are by far the best smartphones.

Why do people think this? I've been using a Samsung Note with the Wacom stylus for over a decade. Every now and then I try an iPhone and the experience is good, but not great. The UI noticeably lags on any iPhone over a year old. The keyboard is annoying and lacks features I use, and third party keyboards don't integrate properly. No consistent back button behaviour, it's up to apps to implement and each does it differently. There is no way to sync the calendar or contacts with Webdav, not even with third party apps. So far as I know, there is no ADB equivalent.

Other than the phenomenal camera, which I think the newer Samsung S-series phones with the stylus match, I fail to see the appeal of the iPhone. Well, it is an appealing device, but not the "best" device for many workflows.
Would it have any practical applications that you can see beyond uBlock Origin, or is it just for the cool factor?
yes, but we should also see hiring pick up (and we have some). I expect lots of shuffling around in 2024, but less of the 2023 "winter" we had.

I'm using Lungplus version that works with something similar to design 1 and have no problem with drowsyness at all. The benefit of breathing warm moisturized air outweighs the very small amount of stale air. I measure it to about 25 ml by filling it with water and shaking it out again.

Lungplus is just a silicon wrap around a package of corrugated metal wrapped around itself so the air pathway is straight and very open and easy to breath through. Each pipe is about a millimiter in height and 2-3 in width. It still heats up the air very well at least down to -35 C at which time the freehub starts freezing and I can't bike anyway :-)
Microsoft bet all their chips on kinect, and Rare was spearheading game development for that device. When it didn't work as well, they gutted Rare.

Activision blizzard recently released one of the worst rated call of duty games, diablo Immoral with obscenely predatory micro transactions, ruined overwatch forcing the original game into a sequel model no one asked for and is still reeling from a controversy involving years of employee abuse, including sexual offenses.

I really don't understand this mentality of people who are happy to live in a free society but want North Korea on their phones. I wouldn't mind it if it was a fringe OS, but it's half the phone market.
Apples argument that they're complying is about as brilliant as "I don't need a liquor license because I'm not selling beer I'm renting glassess for the time it takes to drink a beer". The only way to get into 3rd party stores is to pay (or be at risk of having to pay) Apple which is not the case if you only distribute through the Apple store, this clearly disadvantages 3rd party stores in comparrison to their own store.
I haven't tested how it is with the new non-fluorocarbon glide waxes, but definitely with the old stuff the very cold snow was a killer for stripping wax out of the base. Probably would do wonders with a fresh round of Swix TS5B melted on the glide portion of a cleaned sole, then wait 10 minutes and reheat the wax for extra durability. Then sikling and light brushing with the medium bronze. And just some VP30 over base binder for grip.
> Absolutely spot on, and it really does seem like it’s always Android users moaning about Apple’s business model.

They might be Android users _because_ they don't like Apple's control.

You're right - this clause needs more scrutiny. This is a poison pill (and a smoking gun in terms of malicious non-compliance). There is no good reason for this rule except greed and spite.

Notice that this draconian rule is per developer not per app like one might expect. What utter nonsense.

Just as Unity has a legal ability to charge a fee for a game engine, Apple has a legal ability to charge for the Swift programming language along with the rest of the SDK.

It sucks because Apple is hiding behind intellectual property rights to protect its ability to tax the app economy.
In Chinese chess, the horse behaves like the knight in western chess except that (a) it cannot jump over pieces, and (b) the definition of jumping over is that it first move horizontally/vertically 1 step and then diagonally 1 step. It cannot first move diagonally.

This also leads to situations where two knights can be positioned amongst other pieces such that one knight is able to capture the other but not vice versa.
There is a disagreement, the first poster clearly believes Apple even having a closed App Store is an infringement, even if he can not use it. And it's honestly almost gaslighting to pretend that the first poster isn't making that argument

Luckily, the EU included substantial anti-circumvention provisions in the DMA. I'm not a lawyer, but based on the excerpts from the regulations below, it seems likely the EU would have grounds to open legal proceedings against Apple's new rules.

https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELE...

"Article 13: Anti-circumvention

4. The gatekeeper shall not engage in any behaviour that undermines effective compliance with the obligations of
Articles 5, 6 and 7 regardless of whether that behaviour is of a contractual, commercial or technical nature, or of any other
nature, or consists in the use of behavioural techniques or interface design.

7. Where the gatekeeper circumvents or attempts to circumvent any of the obligations in Article 5, 6, or 7 in a manner
described in paragraphs 4, 5 and 6 of this Article, the Commission may open proceedings pursuant to Article 20 and adopt
an implementing act referred to in Article 8(2) in order to specify the measures that the gatekeeper is to implement."

I don’t like the idea of having N different app stores no matter how bad the one App Store is. Just having one App Store and no silly monetization rules would be great.

I download the Netflix app for $0 and my business with Netflix is done directly with them after that. And Netflix can pay Apple some reasonable fee for hosting and reviewing the apps themselves.
Apple have already lost the AppStore they just haven’t realized it yet. They should try to rescue the 1 good store before the app market is fractured with side markets. Eventually it’ll affect the perception of their hardware and that’s a worse place for Apple than just losing the entire app tax.

My most charitable response would be that /both/ are required, but your example is one where law is taking away privacy, not one where law is granting privacy. The law cannot grant privacy, because the law is slow to act. We have recently had cases where the government and private actors/companies have violated privacy rights in western democracies and it took multiple years to see any semblance of justice done, and the victims were not made whole.

Laws that prevent technical mechanisms effectively prevent the enforcement of laws that protect privacy, because bad actors can still break the law. The law provides some means to get justice, in theory, after a bad actor has already violated your privacy. Technical means provide you a mechanism /you control/ to actually enforce that you have privacy. You need both, but the law alone is woefully insufficient.

Bottleneck #06: Onboarding
a) Nobody knows other than Apple about whether the cost of building the SDKs etc are included in the price of the iPhone. So making definitive statements about their being no additional cost makes no sense.

b) Microsoft and Apple both charge for developer programs and in the past it used to be significantly higher than today. So there is a precedent for this.
That has been working out poorly for us. I think we should limit the number of rights a corporate entity can enjoy and give greater weight to truthfulness in legal matters. No, this is not going to stop anyone having opinions or writing fiction.

>Your internal voice is making up justifications after the fact. You ask yourself "why did I do that"... and it doesn't know, but has to have an answer anyway.

Thats assuming I need to make up a justification for why I did something to protect my ego. Most actions I take in my life don't need that reason, that includes going to the fridge because I am in fact, hungry. In fact I'd say 99% of the actions throughout my day are super simple decisions. There are some things where I am conflicted, and unsure about that I don't understand myself sure.

You don't think "I am going to go left" and go right, after all. You don't think "I am going to grab this" and open up your fists. Saying your voice has NO relation to your actions or your true self is just absurd.

For more complex actions that have more emotional depth, again it really depends on how honest you are with yourself. You may not understand everything, but you have some idea or feelings you should be aware of.

Also consider the technical actions we do make. If I am doing my job, I can fully explain my rationale behind why I did the things I did. Why would it be any different for the actions I take in my personal life? I felt insecure about not having a relationship, so I started thinking about how I can improve, so I started thinking about my body, so I started going to the gym. I bought low calorie coke because I am trying to stay fit, because of the previous reasons. You're telling me that's all just complete bs and I did all these things for some completely different, unknown reason?

Or Ive really been hating my job. I started playing piano and I really connected with it and I see its something I am really good at. So I quit my job and enrolled in music school. Complete bs? When I was sitting there at work and had a bunch of negative thoughts about it, I actually didn't feel that way?

>Few people, if any at all, are even aware of their hunger. In the west, few have even ever experienced hunger, and if they have, almost certainly only a few times in their lives.

I think this is a pretty fictitious statement to make. Yeah most people in the west have not experienced "true" hunger, but we all feel hungry every day as we do in fact, need to eat everyday just to sustain. I am not overweight, I am barely holding onto the weight I have. If anything I should be eating more. Yet I feel very hungry several times throughout the day.

I see "I don't know" largely as "I don't want to confront my feelings or publicly tell you". If what you were saying is true, there would be zero point in self reflection or therapy. There would be no point in judging peoples personalities, listening to what they say, or the promises they make.

I don't think you're entirely wrong, in that if you go deep enough asking why, you'll get lost. But thats not because of your unconscious self, thats because you completely forgot/blocked out/retold yourself some other story.

What about the people like you saying Apple has no place in between 3rd party devs and the end user? You literally said he couldn't have it? From your first post if you had your druthers Apple would be slapped harder and harder until they disband the App Store.
Sure, but:

* not every artist has a donation link.
* I don't get the album for free otherwise

So I think it's totally ok for the service to give 10% to bandcamp (or whatever camp it will be in the future).

But I would be really happy when something like Faircamp takes off, and is easy for artists to use (or labels etc.), so they would be having more control, while providing a clean interface (unlike e.g. Qobuz)
Great point, I will revise my statement to "no developer who hopes any app they ever create will one day have more than 1M installs will choose these new terms, and I have no doubt that is exactly Apple's intention here.".
> Courts in EU

I see the Netherlands case on third party PSPs for dating apps, and it was in the scope of apps downloaded and managed within the AppStore. Do you see any other case ruled in the EU on this subject ?
> Some people (me included) would actually like to have a secure, vetted ecosystem for software that gets installed on my phone (and even my computer).

And that thing already exists - it's the app store. No one would be stopping you from choosing to only download apps from the official app store, and I assume that many people would be similar to you. They will only use the official app store because that is the vetted-by-apple place to find software.

But just because the closed and vetted ecosystem exists for users like you, doesn't mean that Apple should be able to prevent other people that don't care about that from doing what they want to with the devices they literally own.

>and eventually you might just end up in physics-land again.

Sure, anything might turn out to be explicable by future physics (or indeed, future astrology, future phrenology, or any possible future knowledge). There are no knock-down arguments in this domain. The point is that the fact of your personal conscious identity is apparently not a physical fact, which is a prima facie argument against some of the stronger forms of physicalism.

>To be more serious: having prior notions of things is fine.

You can't use the physical definition to dispense with other notions of personal identity if you need those very notions to bootstrap the physical definition (and maintain it over time, as your 'set of atoms' is constantly changing). To point out that your informal notion of self is connected somehow with a loosely-defined lump of physical stuff isn't really to succeed in reducing anything to physics. It's just to say what pretty much everyone agrees with: that humans have physical bodies.
Most likely.

It would be a shame if the way to get a closed ecosystem was to remove functionality to meet some arbitrary threshold.
No, this is not true. I do not care about what Apple does with their App Store. The point is they should not be allowed to insert themselves into a relationship between me trying to sell something and someone else trying to buy it from me directly. No cost to Apple exists, thus they should not be paid. It's really simple actually.

eBay is a great example for this case, yes. It would be very easy for ebay to stop distributing an iOS app in the EU, and instead push those users to using the ebay web app. Ebay could put more resources into making the webapp better, and avoid paying Apple a ridiculous annaul per installation charge.
For now. The EU Product Liability Directive updates and Cyber Resilience Act is going to force software and hardware makers to take a much harder look at their security choices.

> Apple still has no right to interfere in any way at all, or collect a tax, if I want to sell an app to someone else outside of it.

You seem to be demanding that everyone bend to your view of how the world should work.

But the fact is that Apple has a right to determine what apps are on their platform. No different to how supermarkets choose what items to stock or social networks moderate what content to show.
If the seller is voluntarily working together with Apple (i.e. purposefully selling the software through their store) that is obviously fine. The whole point of the DMA is we should not be forced to.
Apparently, once you sell in a non-Apple app store - you can't go back. Not just for the app in question; You, as a developer, can never sell in an Apple EU App Store ever again. Not even unrelated apps.

Still appealing?

"Developers who adopt the new business terms at any time will not be able to switch back to Apple’s existing business terms for their EU apps."
