I think it's less a preference question and more whether Apple thinks saving PWAs with a third party browser and then launching them with Safari is compliant with the DMA.
It looks like it's used to register hooks to invoke custom behaviour on elements defined by the hyop attribute. The document load handler defines a central dispatch table for all of these hooks.
FWIW this only lets you see the header of her profile before redirecting you to a sign up page.
>We've had things like reservoir lakes for hydro plants for a long time. Energy can be stored in more ways than electrical.

Hydro is great. Gravity batteries (e.g. pumped storage) are great. The problem is that they require particular geography to work - especially at grid-scale, and we pretty much exploited all of it already - so you cannot scale it.
> A PWA has exactly the same storage access, code etc as a normal web page.

This is not the case in Safari[1].

That's a terrible argument. The MacOS security model has not suffered as Apple asserts.
In languages which don't use indentation semantically, I always end up catching a bug, sooner or later, by running code through a formatter. It's usually in a complex tree of nested if statements, some code I thought was part of one group gets moved to be in another group, making it obvious where the mistake was.

Python can't do that. It's one of a few things about the language which is "nice" when using it for simple tasks, but which makes more complex programming pointlessly error-prone.
You don't need to know which one of the two was bad; it's not worth the extra overhead to avoid scrapping two in the rare case you catch a persistent glitch; sudden hardware death (blown VRM or such, for example) will dominate either way, so you might as well build your "servers" to have two parts that check each other and force-reset when they don't agree.
If it reboot-loops you take it out of the fleet.
Not fake news, the account was suspended and is now restored.
And actually it isn’t that cheap because if you post to say 4 (X, Bluesky, mastodon, Facebook), you now have to choose where you’re going to spend time reading and responding to others. On all of them or just on X, where the gravity is.
I'm... oddly glad I got in on a Vizio at the weirdest time of their "smart" history. I got mine when it was just Chromecast Built-In -- a Chromecast just acting like a virtual input alongside a couple HDMI ports. No other streaming bullshit, just a mirroring client.

In one way I was very angry I found out I was "abandoned" by Vizio and couldn't get their "new streaming experience" they were delivering, but looking back I'm now very glad all my "smart" TV is is a very dumb Chromecast.
This entire thread is ridiculous.

Just pickup the phone and cancel your subscription. Yes, I get that you can't spin up a virtual machine of OS/2 and and use Netscape navigator to cancel your subscription because you dropped your iPad off the balcony of your cruise ship. OK, call them up and cancel.

I'll hate on apple all day, but damn if this thread isn't pedantic as hell. Jeeze.

Surely there’s a distinction to be made between a discussion of the proper role of the state and devolution into stateless warlordism. I’m not sure that making a reductive argument against the worst possible interpretation of what small government types advocate really adds to the discourse.
Those are probably different groups of people. I'll definitely agree that the Mac would see more security issues if it had the install base of Windows or iOS.
This is a generally unsurprising event to industry, but exciting nevertheless.

Cap One and Discover both focus on the nearprime / subprime / thin credit / credit invisible segments (think people who have bad credit, expats, students, etc.). Cap One is excellent in their analytics on understanding people, and likely sees Discover as an opportunity to acquire new customers + improve on Discover's operations.

The network side of Discover's business is intriguing. Its nowhere near as sophisticated as Visa/Mastercard, but it is something! The idea may be to turn into an Amex focused on everything but prime consumers, and use the improved economics (from owning both sides of the transaction) to give rewards (at least something) to cardholders who don't normally see them. I doubt their intention is to build a serious competitor to the card networks.
It's pretty obvious. They're not disallowing it. They are removing the integration with the home screen so that it will run in third party browsers. That limits it to the smallest common API surface which is "open link". Everything else was a luxury.

I don't think you work in IT if you haven't had an infested windows, android or macOS box before. Hell I just spent the other day cleaning my father's Mac out of two VPN turds fighting with each other he installed after watching crap on YouTube. My daughter's windows machine got destroyed by unsigned crap from a Sims mod. You just don't get that on iOS apart from the odd calendar subscription turd.

As for spotify, they use their own subscription system, not the app store.

> I'd like to buy a TV and know it will work the same in two decades as it does today.

TVs from about a decade ago fit the bill while being of "acceptable" 1080p quality. Lord knows the manufacturers aren't bothering with updates anymore if they even supported them. My primary TV is a Samsung from 2012 and I've never felt the need to upgrade. I can't tell any quality difference from any non-high end TV today.
For a good portion of the nation, _some_ power is better than no power. Unlike the west which had electrified heavily early on, India has lagged on that front.
The government of india is building coal capacity, as well as renewable capacity.
We are rather fortunate that our peak of power use oft coincides with peak solar (as, our largest non industrial power consumers have usually been air conditioners).

The electricity demand in india is only going to grow, and i would expect that coal will be one of the many sources of electricity, and will probably decline.

As a society, I hope that we electrify, and fast.

We are also seeing a revolution of electric scooters in the country, which are cost competitive with ICE scooters already (less than 33% more). If this trend continues, I would expect that the demand for electricity will further grow

>Why sign up for it?

Because, when you buy an Apple device, they shove free trials for subscription services down your throat in the hopes that you'll do exactly this. And it's not strange that they don't use it: the first thing you discover after starting the free trials is that they're useless and full of shovelware.

Well, as a reality check, even the soundtrack of a 1hr movie would be 50x floppy size (~50MB vs 1MB) if MP3 compressed.

I guess where this sort of generative video "compression" is headed is that the video would be the prompt, and you'd need a 100GB decoder (model) to render it.

No doubt one could fit a prompt to generate a movie similar to something specific in a floppy size ("dude gets stuck on mars, grows potatoes in his own shit"). However, 1MB is only enough to hold the words of a book, and one could imagine 100's of movie adaptations (i.e. visualizing the "prompt") of any given book that would all be radically different, so it seems a prompt of this size would only be enough to generate one of these "prompt movie adaptations".

Yes, and they are not complying but believe they can get away with abusing tiny loopholes. The are sabotaging the whole idea.

For example them demanding that app developers have to pay APPLE if they are distributing their apps through a different App store is the exact opposite of the intention of the EU regulations, and plain evil.
I thought PWAs already didn't work well on iOS, though?

Apart from opening in a browser window rather than as a full-screen app, is this going to behave significantly differently from before?

Agreed, but I rarely see this work out, even in the short term. It certainly seems like complexity for its own sake, and someone once told me that our system was embarrassingly simple so that's why they introduced a load of complexity. Sigh.
If your definition of a "garbage platform" is one that has made questionable deplatforming or censorship decisions, all platforms are garbage platforms. At least X quickly reversed this mistake. It took years for various platforms to acknowledge that censoring the Hunter Biden laptop story in the run-up to the 2020 election was a mistake.
> you can see for yourself

Actually I can not. Probably not because of this specific user, but Twitter is in saving mode.
Yeah he was persuaded to do it, ironically considering YT is Google, using a video on YT which was trying to sell him VPN software. I blame the paranoia from the constant VPN industry adds being forced down your throat really but the point is that it still does happen.

I will add that I have a lot of unsigned APKs on my device as well, but not from those sources!

Looks like this library is serious. Most of what I see can be written more succinctly using existing Python functionality:

1. Maybe -> Optional[T]
2. Result -> Union[SuccessT, FailureT]
3. Future, FutureResult -> concurrent.futures.Future[T]
4. IO -> don't use this; none of the standard library I/O supports it

I do appreciate the use of "container" as a term instead of "monad".

I also appreciate the typechecker enhancements being put forward by their custom plugins.
I am a developer and user, and I think it is better for me at least.
Delivered Benefit != Profit

How many of the Top 20 Global Rich List got there through altruism and CSR?

We have dozens of touch-points in Human Culture to aptly demonstrate this, ranging classically from 'The Tragedy of the Commons' to that sterotypical 80s
mindset of 'Nice Guys Finish Last'. From Manufacturing/Sweatshops and post-colonial era exploitation of the 3rd world, to a Newt Gingrich led era of destructive political spindoctory in the 1st World.

To be slightly on the nose about it, we're now living in a US-Led 'Too Big to Fail' era of Power and Financial attainment, typified by an incredibly strong lobbying class, and a lax and de-incentivised regulatory class. The two are then weaponised to nefarious ends by power brokers using disingenuous polemic to conflate them to the point of making the hoi polloi into a pastiche of turkeys voting for Christmas.
> Also, in my understanding is that in Rust, sometimes a dynamic state is created when the object may or may not be moved.

Yes?

if cond {
drop(p)
}
// p may or may not be dropped here

or

let p;
if cond {
p = something();
}
// p may or may not be set here

These trigger dynamic drop semantics, in which case the stackframe has a hidden set of drop flags going alongside any variable with dynamic drop semantics, to know if they do or don’t need to be dropped. The flags are automatically updated when the corresponding variables are set or moved-from.

I remember having this exact conversation with a girlfriend who though it was dumb that Apple was being forced to change their charger port.

One day she was like "ugh! I forgot my phone charger at home" and I was like "your phone uses USB-C now. I have dozens of those lying around."

She kind of tilted her head and said "huh. that's convenient." Like, she'd simply never thought about it that way before.
You don't pay for the labour to produce it, you pay for a gamble over an investment.
The labour to produce the game can totally be paid if the price of the game is reduced but the amount of copies sold increase by a significant amount to make up for the price reduction.

And wallet and income of the consumers in region X of the world do not stretch magically because game companies in region Y decide to invest more on games. It is not that simple.

You have to discount the price of a similar server without the GPU, tough.

But even so, it's still quite expensive. I have the impression Nvidia charges more from data center customers. So, for cards available to retail consumers, it's not a fair cost comparison.

With only 20GB, RTX 4000 has limited use... I was expecting they'd be offering something with at least 60GB at this point.
Yeah but then they just won't chage the browser enginr and nothing will change. I don't think your parents would go out of their way to change the browser engine or am I missing something?
Digger collects Github user and repository names. No attempt is made to obfuscate the data, these are sent in the clear.

So yeah, some smart people keep insisting because historically, saying stuff like "it can't be done", "it doesn't exist", "there is no more to be discovered, uncovered, disclose" turned out to be wrong.

Then, there's also Space. And they keep finding cave systems and whole cities below forests. It's crazy!

> going for libc by default

I understand this isn't relevant to the original discussion since the kernel doesn't use libc, but in userland, the flawed design of libc is as much a liability as the language itself IMHO.

For example, maybe you know when to use strcpy(), strncpy(), strlcpy(), memcpy(), but TBH I don't remember the appropriate contexts to use them and I don't write enough C code to warrant actively keep all the nuances in my head.
Maybe for some people? git add -p does everything I need, directly from the terminal which is where I use git already. It's also super fast, the only limit being how quickly I can parse each hunk and type "y enter" or "n enter". Very occasionally I want to split a hunk up more than it allows, but it's easy to work around.
I use this website for work. That search page is certainly dated, but may I suggest there is actually the very similar Devices@FDA: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/SCRIPTS/cdrh/devicesatfda/ind...

The Devices@FDA is a single search box, while the one the author used breaks out by field, more useful if you know exactly what company name, etc. you're looking for. Also, Devices@FDA searches both 510(k) and PMA's (the other 1%).

Adding renewable energy sources will not reduce total fossil fuel consumption world wide. There's not a limit on the amount of energy that people will use -- adding more renewable energy sources won't satiate our demand for energy and as long as fossil fuels are there, people will use them. Double, triple, quadruple, renewable energy production, and people will still burn fossil fuels as fast they can pull it out of the ground. The rollout of renewable will have to be accompanied by a ban on the use of fossil fuels to supplement them.

Sure a college degree shows they can do whats expected and still get by.

A counter point to this would be You are interviewing to individuals for a job and the only thing missing from one is a degree?

Perhaps the person without a degree didn't have the money for college or had personal life happenings that prevented them from going. Yet they managed to get into an interview. Shouldn't a few more justified questions about how they get to where they are now?

This could show you that the person who didn't go to college as the favorable hire(through hard work), opposed to someone whom is or was more economically advantaged?

Instead this one has a checked box(college) and this one doesn't, the more checked boxes justify the outcome.
