I think that the Mac convention of control-clicking to open context menus, introduced somewhere around Mac OS 8, is easier to remember for the average person than right-clicking is.

They pull people over in Norway and give them hefty fines (~1000 USD). We don’t have any statistics for number of car accidents where the driver was “probably” using their phone, so it’s hard to say if it works. So same issue was the article brings up.

I feel that the media is partially to blame too. They like to victimise drivers who are caught using their phones, or driving over the speed limit for that matter. Or maybe it’s just my point of view.
> There are other phones to chose from also. This is where the rub is.

Why do certain people always always fall back on this lame response that's not even applicable.

> It may sound odd or absurd

It's indeed absurd. Unity and Unreal Engine are not gatekeepers in any sense of the word. They do not control any market, they simply sell software and services to developers. Game engines are dime a dozen and games switch between different engines surprisingly often.

This regulation addresses business dealings between Apple and developers working with their platform. Developers have a completely free choice of using Unity or Unreal Engine, it doesn't make a lick of difference to anyone except developers and artists working on the game.

Developers do not have a choice of which platform their customers are using, the developer can't "choose Android" because they need to reach users on iOS which makes up half of their customer base.

Not just in the app market, but in any market - hardware products, physical businesses, government services. All of those need to play by Apple's rules if they want to survive. This is what makes Apple the gatekeeper, they have the power to affect technological development of the entire world.

If Apple decided that apps couldn't use NFC, this could potentially hold back modernization of the entire European public transit system. If Apple blocked apps from using certain bluetooth features, this would sink their competitors in the accessories & IoT market.

It's not acceptable for one corporation to essentially hold the world hostage, hence this regulation.

I can guess with a very high probability that a driver in front of me is on their phone just by the way they move in their lane. I hate driving behind distracted drivers -- they tend to do things suddenly (stop, steer, or crash).
The "companies legally delete all written communications as soon as feasible" outcome isn't (mostly) because companies are trying to hide illegal shit. It's because when you get sued for whatever, and your email/chat/whatever get subpoenaed, there's going to be who-knows-how-much embarrassing personal gossip in there, too and that just makes folks look bad. The easiest way to avoid that (and other forms of embarrassment) is to just not keep that stuff around.

If it's policy, it's legal. You can't go around and delete the stuff after the fact.

So far, not much. Gaza is a good place to start. China wants more influence in the Middle East, and already owns or operates a large number of ports outside China.[1] Israel blockades the existing ports of Gaza. A China-run port in Gaza, protected by the PLAN, is a possibility.

A policy simply doing -some- good is not sufficient justification given a finite amount of resources to implement it. You need to compare policies against the alternative uses of the resources.

Neither is the fact that "lives will be saved" a sufficient justification. You need to compare that against the lives saved with the alternative policy options available with the given resources.

> WASI-Preview2's benefits are not going to be realized in a browser, it's more for the non-web world

The jco project (https://github.com/BytecodeAlliance/jco) provides an implementation of the Component Model and WASI Preview 2 for JavaScript systems. Right now, node.js support is complete, but support for Web embeddings is in progress and coming soon.

> These interpreted languages can run in WASM, but only as language interpreter inside the WASM interpreter - so they work, but they are not efficient.

The Bytecode Alliance has made big improvements to SpiderMonkey performance on WASM/WASI systems, and has work in progress to take advantage of SpiderMonkey's "native" codegen targeting WASM: https://cfallin.org/blog/2023/10/11/spidermonkey-pbl/. We targeted JS first for this work because it is the most popular language with our customers and users, but we expect that this will show the path to adding similar improvements to Ruby, Python, and other languages commonly thought of as "interpreted".
For now. (And not everywhere. In Norway, 90% of that power would come from hydro plants.)

One of the most common objections to a wholesale switch to renewables is "what if it's cloudy / not windy" sort of thing. Cheap, widely deployed energy storage is key to answering that objection.

They go hand in hand. More batteries, more renewables, more batteries, more renewables, etc. etc. etc.

Eventually, the obvious goal is to charge everything via renewable power.
Can you please stop posting in the flamewar style? It's against HN's rules, and especially against the intended spirit that I tried to describe at the top of this thread.

Obviously most of what gets discussed on HN is relatively unimportant in the world. If that weren't the case, HN would simply be a current affairs site, which it isn't. At the same time, that doesn't mean every political story is off topic here—the guidelines already make that clear by their use of the word "most": https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

There's a long and pretty consistent history to how HN handles the question of political topics.

I am curious what patterns other dev teams are using to manage files within their saas product to allow for multi-tenancy, permissioning, sharing, searchability etc.

It doesn't. Mosul's civilian population were Iraqi citizens, the conflict was much larger, lasted a lot longer, used smaller munitions, resulted in a lot more military deaths and significantly less civilian deaths. This is despite the enemy being significantly better trained, better equipped, better logistics, years of preparation and less intelligence by the anti-ISIL coalition.

Not the OP, and I'm not sure something like this needs to be a desktop application. But having your learning resources hosted on your own device is vastly preferable to online-only resources. The interaction is more responsive. For programming, as you progress you can start using your own tooling instead of the course-administered tooling (in the case of a web IDE for instance). And you can access the materials without needing an internet connection or at least not a fantastic internet connection once the materials are acquired.
Have you considered limits with degraded experience?
For example you might have a map with real-time-synced pop-up annotations, and someone puts too much stuff in there, and things gets too slow.

So you add the rule that text over X KB should be hosted elsewhere, and your nice real-time-map only gets a link to it - and that "elsewhere" is much simpler. Maybe it's a wiki page without collaborative editing support. Or as a more extreme version, you have to compose everything on your computer and upload a whole .txt file at once. Something that would be relatively simple for you to implement.

This way huge-text users would still be able to work, albeit with more effort... and yet everyone else would be able to enjoy fast experience.

Forcing people off of their land is the definition of ethnic cleansing and I don't think that's ever ok nor generally accepted in the world. I think Israel is a lot like apartheid South Africa.

> To install an OS, you flash an image to an SD card, put it in the PinePhone and turn it on. That's it. You can swap OSes by changing SD cards

But then also this..

> [...] repeated, unpredictable problems both placing and receiving calls [...]

> Notifications TLDR: Only calls and SMS notifications are truly real-time.

So the only way someone can reliably reach you is via SMS, which basically means sending an explicit money-costing notification to me whenever I'm not already online and hoping I hear the single ping.

That suits a pocket computer, but not for a phone :(

The keyboard descriptions are also interesting: no suggestions makes it basically unusable unless it comes with a physical keyboard or you want to have typos in every sentence. I've got a "hacker keyboard" enabled on my android as well, but only turn it on when doing terminal things. I tried typing normally on that and I don't think it would reasonably work after a lot of practice either
"don't force them to put on a coat"

I'm in the middle of this right now with a 2 year old. Allowing your child to make decisions you disagree with has many down stream consequences, like what food they eat, what time they go to bed, how much screen time they watch, whether they sit at the table to eat.

How's that gonna go when it's time say "don't force them to do their homework, let them decide!"?

It's not about the coat, though the coat can be a matter of life or death in the case of a car accident or the sudden unexpected incapacitation of the parent, it's about following instructions and setting boundaries and being able to make the necessary decisions as a parent.
Does it help them write like Stephen King though?
>To be fair, Indian restaurants in the west sell a fully bastardized version of Indian food from India.

The situation is similar for Chinese restaurants in India.

I first got to know about this from my aunt, an Indian but a naturalised US citizen, when she came on one of her periodic visits to India, to see us.

When we were eating at a Chinese restaurant in India, she remarked that the food was very different from authentic Chinese food.

(It has been heavily modified to use Indian spices and to appeal to Indian tastes.)

Later, when I went to Chinese restaurants in Malaysia and the US, I could see this for myself.

If you look at the Lemkin Institute for Genocide Prevention's statement [1], they call both the Hamas attack and the current Israeli action Genocidal. They characterise genocidal attacks in terms of not just their factual effect, but the intentional psychological effect of an "massacre of symbols of group life", in which the genocidaires deliberately try to symbolically erase the other group, in ways which are hugely traumatic: "inversion rituals, such as the killing of children in front of their family members; and desecration rituals, such as the massacre of entire families, the setting fire to homes with families still inside them, and the desecration of dead bodies", which they see evidence of in the Hamas attack. This is all magnified by the existing trauma of the Jewish people, in the holocaust but also events since, in living memory of more people - such as 9/11 (an attack on the city with the largest Jewish population).

So you have to realise that Israelis are not thinking normally right now. Even though the Hamas attack has in military terms "culminated", and Israel's military is many times more powerful, their trauma leads them to believe that there is a real, present threat of extinction of the Israeli state and their own nation and families. Under such conditions, it is very hard for them to see the suffering of 'the enemy' as relevent.

It also doesn't help that basically everyone else is just piling responsibility for a solution on the Israelis, despite the US, UK and Europe having enormous historic responsibility for setting up the situation.

[please note, this is explanation, not justification]

You need to find a way to help it arrive at a usable answer (if any).

It's a machine -or at least a physical entity- it won't magically find a path to the solution if it doesn't have one.

Eg. if you ask it to explain how to build -say- a time machine or a warp drive, it's definitely just going to keep apologizing.

No amount of yelling or abuse will fix this situation.

Sometimes if you try to get it to solve a complex maths or software problem, you might be able to help by applying a few steps of some form of divide and conquer. Either you can do manually yourself, or by suggesting it try to do eg a structured analysis itself. Sometimes it can handle the smaller subproblems ok.

Incidentally this also applies to humans! (Being nicer to humans improves their morale and problem solving ability. Sometimes permanently!)
I don't understand why. I thought users will just see a list of options upfront instead of having to install them and select one later.

This seems like more of an awareness thing than an actual change in functionality.

I would think of the desktop app as being an IDE built for beginners with free project-based courses built in. Any good IDE realistically has to be a desktop app so that it can integrate deeply with your OS.

Didn't mention it in my original post, but there's a premium membership that offers an integrated AI tutor to provide live feedback, explanations on course materials, and automatically tailor the course to the user, their experience, and their system.
I also didn't mention that I'm very close to an MVP.
Upon reading the article, did I get it correctly that this is talking solely about the default browser choice? I.e., if I understood it right, it still won’t allow non-webkit browsers with their own browser engines.

Here is the relevant quote from the article:

> EU users will see a choice of browsers when they first launch Safari that can be set as the systemwide default browser. For each country, that list will contain the 12 most popular browsers from its App Store storefront displayed to the user in a random order.

Again, assuming my interpretation is correct, the US users aren’t losing out on much, since they are able to install those same browsers from the App Store. They would just have one less menu to click through when setting up a new phone (because that “choose your default browser” dialog would be skipped).

Note: the ability to set the default web browser app on iOS has been present since iOS14 iirc.

You _stole_ his pen? -> You in fact stole his pen, it was not given willingly?

You stole _his_ pen? -> You stole his pen, and not someone else's?

You stole his _pen_? -> You stole his pen, and not something else of his?

I own three of these (!), the TAM, the Cube, and the Mac XL.

They all look good on the shelf, but the TAM is actually still occasionally useful for running Classic MacOS software. It can boot Systems 7 through 9, although even with the G3 accelerator I fitted to it, it can't boot OS X, because it boots using the original CPU and than an extension switches control to the G3. OS X must boot from a G3.

For personally purchased Chromebooks, you are partially correct. You can set up a Linux sandbox on a Chromebook or you can run sandboxed Android applications from Google Play. You can even side load Android applications via "developer mode" or the Linux sandbox.

For managed Chromebooks, you are incorrect. They are usually configured so that the end-user cannot install additional software, enable developer mode, or set up the Linux sandbox, making them often less useful than Apple iOS or iPadOS devices.

The GGP comment said we should ban PCs [because they're too dangerous for most people to use]. And with Chromebooks or thin clients with virtual desktops, that is exactly what a lot of organizations have done.
