Velocity is indeed a nice idea.

According to XKCD’s law, the probability to have an xkcd reference is proportional to the number of comments (see https://ploum.net/xkcds-law/index.html )

But adding velocity is really nice. Should think more about it…
The main problem with it is that it takes too long to cook, and the T-intersections of the pasta are still undercooked when the rest of the pasta is done. Further, the non-uniformaty of the joints of the pasta means that the ruffley bits had a tendency to shear off during the cooking process, or in the final step when you cook it with sauce.

When I tried to leave a 4-star review on their website, along with my commentary, it was rejected. In all honesty, my 4 stars was too generous though. The main "problem" that this pasta claims to solve is much more easily solved by cooking the pasta in your sauce for 30 seconds, after which your sauce will happily adhere to any shape of pasta you can imagine.

Ultimately this is a marketing gimmick rather than a genuine iteration, which should not be surprising.
That's the opposite of a value add.

What you are describing is an unavoidable cost of doing business which Apple is entitled to charge developers for.
Compare America's federal rooftop solar subsidy scheme (the ITC) to Australia's (STCs):

The ITC is a tax credit, which means only households with a large tax bill will be able to benefit. And they'll not benefit up-front, but only after their next tax year.

STCs are cash rebates which actually reduce the up-front cost of purchasing solar.

The ITC is based on the price of the system, which incentivises higher prices.

STCs are based on the kW size of the system, according to a formula intended to estimate the system's energy production over its lifetime. It's a very rough approximation of course.

(Not directly related, but the amount of STCs awarded also steps down annually until in 2031 no certificates will be awarded. This policy has remained remarkably stable over the last several governments.)

The ITC looks to this foreigner like it was intended to ensure that solar must be purchased on finance. It's not "government subsidies" that are the problem, it's subsidies that may as well have been designed by banks.

EDIT: Australia's market is by no means perfect, and we also have our share of financial shenanigans. But it's much better than what I've seen of the US market, and our prices are drastically lower.
The bar for delaying an ongoing project needs to be higher than just opening your mouth. Batching questions works well; not all of your tasks should be completely blocked.

If the goal is to raise the sauce/carbs ratio, then I wonder if it's possible to make pasta with air bubbles to reduce its density. Gyroid infill would probably be delicious.
I am not situated anywhere near the US, so for a regular peasant like me Cavatappi is a pretty good pasta shape. It is a hollow tube that has been bent into a corkscrew shape, with ridges on the outside running lengthwise along the tube.

- Chunks get tangled in it

- Surface area to volume ratio is quite good (sauce)

- Tube means sauce goes inside

It is a better macaroni (which is my second favourite shape).

Long have I wished for Apple hardware that came with Apple-provided OS optional. Well before iOS. I started to want this with the arrival of OSX. (It's possible to boot into a non-Apple OS, but one cannot completely uninstall the Apple OS.)

Whenever I mentioned this online over the years no one else seemed interested. Perhaps Apple's now more visible stanglehold on the hardware after purchase is a critical part of its "business strategy".

Apple has always had nice hardware. It's all the other nonsense that has become too much to bear. Wish there was company that made Apple-quality hardware without bundling it with pretentious, presumptuous BS.

Apple once sold a computer that ran a NetBSD 6.1 kernel. People used it as a router and I never read any bad reviews of it. It shows what is possible.

What a strange perspective. If not e-mail, then what would you associate it with? I've been running a site for over 20 years with a large user base. We initially used usernames, but it was disastrous. Everyone knew each other's usernames, making it easy to attempt brute force attacks on passwords, reset them, etc. Using e-mails isn't the problem, the issue is overcomplicating the login and password recovery logic, tons of abstraction everywhere, overengineering, people rushing to push code without proper checks in security sensitive parts etc.

> without paying $10

Reducing delays to near instantaneous is an argument, but having to pay $10 for a physical SIM sounds like a scam. Yet I've seen providers making people pay for eSIM as well so it seems they like to do this.

On my provider, physical SIM are free and available under 24h. eSIM are free as well and I haven't seen a single SIM on any local provider more expensive than 1€.

This is an interesting conjecture. It could be a cunning Microsoft competitive strategy.

They convince cost-sensitive IT infrastructure groups in other businesses to use Teams by offering it for free, reducing company productivity massively, hobbling product development.

Meanwhile, Microsoft adopt some other pay messaging/video service internally, accelerate product development 10x, become insanely competitive in a whole host of new markets rapidly.

It does but not because it influences friction at the wheel contact point (the mass cancels out in that formula). If braking is done entirely in "wheels locked" fashion then all that matters is the friction coefficient between the wheel and the track. But most braking is not like that. A train will only lock the wheels in emergency braking as that will apply larger braking force than otherwise available.

In normal braking the friction between the pads and the wheel is the important one and in that case the stopping distance is determined by how much of the energy of the moving vehicle you can bleed through the force you apply with the braking pads. More mass/speed, more energy, more time needed to apply the xxxxN of force to the wheel and convert the energy to heat. The energy of the moving vehicle scales with its weight while the maximum force a friction braking system can apply doesn't.

The science of braking is even more complicated than that, materials heat up or melt, friction coefficients change, tires behave differently under different loads, ABS systems kick in, etc. These are deceptively complicated topics.

The formula for friction also doesn't contain surface area and yet we use wide tires and big brake pads. But the bottom line is that in a real life scenario (as in not in simplified formulas on paper) the weight of the vehicle very much influences the braking distance.

I've recently stopped two design choices in external facing resources that posed significant security risks.

One of which was around credentials resetting to emails that aren't stored in the API auth system itself, but rather come into Salesforce as a support case. "Don't worry, a support team member has to action the request" was meant to be reassuring, until I explained that this translated to "the only mechanism in place to prevent credentials being stolen comes with a massive social engineering vulnerability".

But it's the previous choices I haven't come across yet that worry me.
> The IP in question would be code written by Apple provided in the form of frameworks, SDKs, APIs and the like. There’s also the use of software like Xcode, but for the sake of simplicity let’s stick with code written by Apple.

Code generally falls under copyright. Copyright means that making copies requires permission from the owner. Installing and using XCode, for example involves making a copy of XCode, and Apple charges a subscription fee for the privilege. Distributing an iPhone app that statically links Apple libraries is also making copies of Apple's copyrighted code, which requires permission. Dynamic linking to libraries present in the OS, however does not involve distributing copies of them and does not require permission.

Distributing an iPhone app built with open source tools and libraries would not involve copying Apple's code. There aren't many iPhone apps built this way right now as far as I know because App Store rules require the use of Apple's tools, but the DMA requires that apps can be installed from other sources and do not need to comply with those rules.

The other options for IP are trade secrets, trademarks, and patents. Only patents seem likely to support a fee for distributing any app that can run on a certain device, but I don't think Apple has a patent with that effect.
I discovered Julia Evans just the other day from a talk she gave about and she's fantastic. Glad to come across her work again.
This is explicitly the case according to Microsoft documentation[1].

What is your alternative?

I don't love passwords.

I think that magic links are a decent alternative, as are passkeys (for web) or similar (for non-web). SSO is fine, but just centralizes the problem (like magic links do).

I just see adoption of any of these taking a long time.
you say things that are imagined, but in the affirmative. pretty sure I've never seen or heard of drones tracking down dogs although it is a great idea.
It doesn't change much, but note that unless you've blocked your wheels (and you have no ABS), you need to check the static coefficients. Wheels work so that from the point of view of the wheel the asphalt is still (i.e. there is no translation, only rotation).

This is why blocking the wheels increases braking distance: you suddenly have to deal with a much smaller friction coefficient.
It works just fine for me.
The solution, of course, is to not permit any maker to foist their negative externalities upon the commons to unfairly undercut competitors. If you're going to blame a consumer for the producer's pollution, why not instead blame their landlord for charging them the rent that forced them to drive to work and so buy tires? Why not instead blame the landlord's bank for demanding repayment of the mortgage or the bank's shareholders for demanding profit instead of benevolent loan forgiveness?

Indieweb's webmention is great because it's so simple. You don't need a complex application to send or receive a webmention.

But doing webmention receive with nginx path and log formats only took a few hours.

Specifically this part. One of the first things you learn when doing mandatory insider trading training is you can easily run afoul of the law if you act on non-public info you overheard, or happened to see by accident, even if it has to do with some company with which you are not affiliated. A common example is you’re in a coffee shop and see an upcoming earnings report on someone else’s laptop screen, then trade based on that information.

You are conflating two separate things.

We all know the code and development direction in teams is lacking. This is one problem.

Microsoft scrambling around COVID times with Teams had more to do with the load / demand / capturing market share, than anything else.

SfB stopped releasing in 2018, 2021 it was lights out no matter what .. everyone was already moving to Teams.

Trying to pretend that their main communication platform is not a "core offering" when it is the definition of one of their core offerings makes no sense.

And trying to say nobody knew about it, when everyone knew about it also makes no sense.

SfB was dead by the time covid started. Where do you think these people migrated to?

When the wheel is just coasting (no additional torque supplied) you have the least amount of friction (assuming you’re going in a straight line) against the rubber. The issue with fly-by-wire systems is there’s no coasting. An ECU is constantly supplying PWM like torque pulses to the wheels to keep the speed constant. My OneWheel burns through rubber because of this. My EV as well. Yet my ICE vehicles or vehicles with a CVT/Open Diff that let the wheels run free don’t suffer from having to change the tires every few months. I believe that’s in corroboration with what the article is claiming. The soft compound tires for ride comfort get absolutely chewed. There’s ripple like wear from the motors.
