Wasn’t Apple forced to open up their App Store monopoly?
Nowadays there are so many great handheld devices specifically optimized for emulation, like the ones from Anbernic, that hacking doesn't seem worth it anymore. There are also hardware button add-ons that convert Android phones or tablets into emulation handhelds, without any hacking.

A common problem with those devices seems to actually be that they work too well, which leads to choice paralysis. If you can play anything, any game ever up to Dreamcast or so, it's hard not to lose interest in any one game quickly.
And that's why all backup software should remove the restore feature, right?
I mean you have to trust their self reported numbers which are politically controlled. So approach any official numbers with a huge level of suspicion.
Just a single day after showing up on the platform. Did she even get to post a single thing? This screams absolute non-sense to me, and for her safety she probably could really use the spotlight of all big platforms.
Aren't apps already sandboxed from eachother on both major Phone OS', unlike on Windows? So on that end something like Edges snooping around other browsers isn't even possible.

Literally the best programmers and biggest companies in the world have given up on C because no one can actually write it securely. I promise, you're not as good at C as you've convinced yourself.

Trust me, I've read this opinion from a certain group before. Whose compositor segfaults on me weekly.

And Rust has neither objects nor inheritance, so.
I think a more problematic assumption is that iOS and MacOS users are equally aware and knowledgeable about potential security threats. It’s true that the sky hasn’t fallen because MacOS users are exposed to these risks. But they are not new risks on MacOS. They will be on iOS.

Had a server with them for more than 10 years. Had they eliminated the setup fee, they would get more of my money for sure for small projects.
Competition is good. This isn’t a new thing for Apple, however - even when Jobs was alive, he personally conspired with Google, Adobe, Intel, Intuit, Pixar, Lucasfilm and eBay to price-fix wages lower than a normal competitive market would allow.

When the companies reached a settlement over it, the judge threw it out because it was so hilariously low compared to the three billion dollars that these companies stole from their employees.

This isn’t some new development. Apple has long been without a moral compass, even when Jobs was at the helm. It continues today.
Last month, imagine my delight when I realized that the requirement I had to drive from Ehrenberg AZ to Las Vegas without crossing back into CA (for...paperwork reasons) meant that I'd drive right past the London Bridge.
But it was dark by the time I got there :( There's an In-n-Out burger at the east end though.
The International Energy Agency Coal Report has it that global coal use has reached peak per annum and will decline from now forwards. Very few countries are bucking that trend.

IIRC India is the greatest exception.

Seems like what's really needed is a bathroom floor material that's both soft and easy to clean.

Maybe something along the lines of wrestling mats, which could be put in the shower and hosed down from time to time?

You'd have to walk a line between making it soft enough to help with falls and making it so mooshy that it becomes a source of instability in its own right. Still, we should be able to do better than hard ceramic tile, no matter how much easier it is to clean.
Sometimes, sure. Sometimes not, though. I have a PWA for studying kanji that very much benefits from the increased real estate and more focused feel.

I like having that choice.

Any other engineering discipline. What are common practices in IT would be negligence in other disciplines and might get your permit/license removed.

Describing something in the imperative voice doesn't make sense.

Why would you ever say "TL;DR perform this action" instead of "TL;DR performing this action", when trying to describe something that people should not do?
> While I haven't performed any benchmarks about whether Rust or JavaScript processing is faster, I decided to use Rust and WebAssembly because there will be a lot of coordinates to process, and Rust generally performs faster at large amounts of data processing.

Is this really true for Rust compiled to WebAssembly in the browser?
Capital One to Acquire Discover for $35.3B
It's hilarious the first example is also, in the first paragraph, a monopoly. I don't have a problem with theoretical capitalism, but people would much rather use their resources to squash a competitor, or in this case, legally prevent, competition on talent.

[Edit]

People love to espouse the free market, but I'm not sure it ever existed.
Somehow this is not a problem on Android even though they have sideloading and alternative app stores even beyond what Apple is going to allow. (Apple still requires apps to go though a review process, even if distributed outside of the App Store, and will enforce this using digital signatures.)
Insider trading is not unlawful because it is theft. It is considered theft because it is unlawful.

Trading with someone when you have knowledge they don't is not "theft" in the general sense of the word. If it was, there wouldn't need to be insider trading laws, because theft is already a crime. The only thing you have really taken from your trading counterparty is the expectation of additional profit (or reduced loss) had both parties traded only on public information. That is an expectation that is created by insider trading laws.

"Fairness" is a vague term. There is an expectation of fairness in US public markets in the limited sense that it is expected that traders generally have access to the same material information about the underlying security.
Comparing Open-Source LLMs for NL-to-SQL (2023)
There's libraries like these for many languages and no, they are not satire. I see it as a misguided attempt to bring some patterns from languages that are "better" (by some metrics) into a language that doesn't have good support for them.

By my experience, younger programmers are more likely to want to do this. I fell into this trap myself with a similar library for TypeScript, and discovered the hard way that code written this way was much less readable and debuggable.

Less readable because you're essentially reimplementing variable assignment and control flow with lambdas and bespoke syntax that looks out of place.
Less debuggable because the stack traces from these things blow up exponentially, and make it very hard to understand where an error came from.

So yeah, it's not satire, just misguided. If you have to use Python you're much better off sticking to the usual patterns and apply more static analysis on top rather than trying to reinvent the language this way.
thanks for the positive feedback!
It seems obvious that they’re collecting submissions to include in an official complaint. PDF isn’t unreasonable for that use.
What is really fun about working with Apple is their Appstore connect platform is buggy & slow as hell.

Few times I couldn't submit an app because of it.

Every time I submit a bug, there first reaction is try it on safari; most of time it was server issues so it didn't resolve it. But sometimes it actually did where I didnt expect it.
I think their idea of the future is very much centered around selling the attention and purchasing power of their customers.

That's not meant to be rude "Anti-Apple", that's what their business strategy is obviously based on, including implementing lots of features to prevent their users from voluntarily providing attention or sharing valuable information for free to anyone without Apple's involvement.

If that's your strategy, someone forcing you to allow your customers to roam free is quite a big threat. Something you might be willing to spend one of your trillion dollars to fight against.

So I believe we haven't seen the peak of this yet...
It's with ample RAM and the latest Intel CPU. Assuming the whole thing draws 100W, that's also including 72kWh of electricity.
This is the problem with basing things on people's own stories. It doesn't matter where people are in life, everyone likes more and hates less. That's why you can have two people on exactly the same income and have one claim to be in poverty while the other says they have everything they've ever wanted. The former cannot bare to think of losing any of what they have while the latter never had nor wanted it in the first place.

Generally speaking it all starts when you're young. The best is having poor/tight parents. The worst that can happen is you get a poorly paying job yourself and consider this normal. But there's a strong chance you'll get a better paying job and not ever have to worry about money. The worst is having middle class parents who spend their money. Now even if you get a job as well paying, which isn't guaranteed, you'll simply have what you think is normal. But there's a strong chance you'll get a worse paying job and always struggle with money.

TL;DR: It's the continuation of Atom.

Personally I don't see how it does a significant number of things better than VS Code, which has much more market share already. Not being controlled by Microsoft is a plus for sure (everyone using VSCode should be aware that the official builds are actually proprietary).
Don’t use PWAs then.
Code...Matters...

You can tell everyone "who is anyone" is in hysterics when this gets virtually no attention at Salamandar's old stomping ground here at ycombinator.

Great work on this. Nice to see non-strongman competitors doing stuff like this.
We can be more optimistic than that. The clean water act aspired to make all waterways fishable and swimmable by 1983, with carveouts for non-point-source pollution like lawns and fields. Meat producing plants take advantage of that carveout in a particular way. But to achieve the swimmable and fishable goal, the EPA needs to be able to affect any upstream point source. The groups lobbying against this are well financed but they are fighting against existing law.
I’m reminded of when Musk had the Ukrainian sea drones disabled in the middle of an attack because they were using Starlink terminals. He didn’t choose to warn them prior or disable before they launched. He had them disabled after launch so they lost the terminal and the drone.

Here he times the suspension at a critical time when she has begun making statements about taking up where her husband left off and she has a lot of world attention.

As an historical comparison, even Crassus died trying to increase the power of Rome. He was doing it for his own prestige and power but it was mutual nevertheless.
Crassus failed spectacularly and had molten gold poured over his head after his son was killed and legions destroyed.

I don’t want Musk’s family to suffer but I would like to see him go to Mars.
Those old machines use so much more energy (CO2) to do the same work that we are environmentally ahead in a year trashing them. Of course newer machines often use more energy because of bloated software, but assuming you run the same software newer machines are much more energy efficient.

This is one way of creating black holes, but there are at least three others: direct collapse of giant gas clouds in the early universe, collapse of an accreting neutron star, and coalescence of two neutron stars.
Yeah Vim uses registers which are like multiple clipboards. By default, yank/copy and paste don't use the register linked to the system clipboard, but this is just a setting. https://neovim.io/doc/user/provider.html#provider-clipboard
Our stack is a NestJS server, Handlebars templates for SSR, htmx and a PostgresSQL database. Deployed as a container on GCP Cloud run with a Github action. It's delightful to work on and very responsive in a way that a React app with the same data load wouldn't be. At this point it would take a pretty massive reason to get me to adopt the SPA approach again.

Who cares about that anyway? Multinational corporations have no national allegiance anyway. They only care about profit and shareholder returns. They set up offices wherever the get the best deals, as in lowest taxes and cheapest labor.

Austria would have also been a "neutral" country in this case. Why didn't they HQ there and instead chose the NL? Let me see .. checks note .. yeah it's just the much lower corporate taxes and nothing else.
That guy was just optimizing for future employability, albeit in a short sighted way. Being able to talk in an interview about how you have professional experience with various tech stacks is valuable. That being said, optimizing for that at the cost of current job performance and coworker alienation is just dumb, since job performance and networking leads are more important for landing good jobs. I'm guessing this guy was a serial job hopper who had no expectation of being able to progress up the ladder at the company you were at.
Yes, djb wanted a C flavour with no UB. That could also work. A macro assembler could fall behind optimizations, but a C with no UB could still optimize pretty well I reckon. Maybe there is a small market for an optimized language with no UB.

They have no reason to improve it as there is no alternative (yet).
In theory, sure.

The browser is bigger than the OS in total LOC.

No one is auditing that.

It is a question of when the video leaks of someone using their phone on the shitter.

If its a Samsung... well were gonna hear google and Samsung blame each other and consumers will be confused till everyone forgets about it.

If it's an apple, consumers blame apple. The buck stops with them.

You have to make a business decision based on this what are you gonna do? Im gonna lock all the doors I can.
The setup fee is a one-time fee though, so if you have a server for many years that won't hurt so much. I pay around €30/month for the server I am renting but I know it will last a long time even if I get spikes on any on my many projects. For a 8 core, 16GB droplet/vps at DigitalOcean it will cost you ~$96/month. The performance is better at Hetzner for about 1/3 the cost.
This is not first time that it happened on Twitter.

Not sure I understand your point. I do my work, doing development work and managing a small team.

Still never work weekends (no phone, no email, no slack), spend time in my garden and just came back from a no-phone vacation.

Salary is above the going rate where I live - the work is remote and salary is based on company headquarters.
Taxes are in line with the country I live in.

Not really seeing any downsides here, and as expected morale is quite good overall at work... But finding this company was extremely lucky/difficult.
That and this phenomena of people with zero critical thinking skills desperate to feel like they're not a clueless, helpless rube! They know the truth! They're in on a secret!
I use kagi for better results few times a week and it’s always free.
My assumption (while knowing dick-all about Twitter's suspension mechanisms) would be a semi-coordinated flagging from a group of users. While it's hard not to notice the rightward tilt of the platform and the recent revelation of the right's fascination with authoritarians like Putin, they don't normally like to do things quite so obvious as banning their ideological opponents. I assume she'll be restored in short order.
It is somewhat of a problem for android when it comes to sideloading, and this is an additional advantages of PWAs. PWAs are the freedom of sideloading, without the security risk.
Why is it a bad response from Apple to disable a feature that they deem as a security risk if you allow for alternative browser engines?

Browsers represent a significant attack surface since they can run code and also transmit data across the network. So when they are allowed to exist now Apple has either two options. One is to do the simple way and remove progressive web apps or extensively test and perform security analysis on all of the new browser engines.

A better compromise would be to make new browser engines have extensive testing by the developer themselves. So, what's the point ? It feels similar to the GDPR where I get a popup and I click disallow all cookies except for essential ones.

This seems the best way to actually implement the directive because it is not only low effort but most secure. We would have a better compromise for testing to be done by the browser engine developer or Apple but its more likely security holes would fall through.
Bridge maintenance was funded by the rents of those houses, as well as bridge tolls. The maintenance charity still exists, see https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_Bridge_Foundation
In other words: it is software.
I've heard this a lot over the years but I disagree entirely.

It's a quote from a semi-humorous essay by Dijkstra from 1975. The essay is basically Dijkstra making fun of all the popular programming languages and technologies of the time and pointing out how they all suck.
I'm talking specifically about chips here. Google has been developing their tensor stuff for a while now, and it's been publicly documented as running much of their training and inference stacks. The fact that they are getting value out of it in models competitive with others suggests that the chips are basically a success, does it not?
On the other hand, I got a Vizio. I've been loving every update. They've added wireless Bluetooth support so I can connect with headphones, made the UI extremely snappy, made the volume overlay be non-obtrusive in the corner.
I wonder how many early stage businesses went tits up because they drank the microservice kool-aid and burned valuable engineering cycles that should have been spent on features on docker spaghetti.
Cutting costs in a company is very different from cutting costs in a democracy.

This is actually a big problem on Android. My ex father-in-law literally had his bank account ripped off (£18000) from rogue app installed from outside the app store. And Google's stewardship of the play store is terrible.

Note I'm mostly an Android user.
No the article is under the belief that because something has not been a security problem for Mac it will not be a security problem for iOS, this does not necessarily have to be because the security architectures of both are the same.
Does Skia have a continuous build somewhere? Is there any way to piggyback off the config for that?

I found this:

https://github.com/google/skia-buildbot

Assuming that the Skia maintainers keep that working, it might be easier to build the buildbot and use that to build Skia, than to build Skia directly!
These are all specific problems that can be individually solved. Personally I don’t see how changing their architecture or programming language would solve those
Maybe ... but a large company implementing compliance in the most self-serving way possible isn't exactly a shocking idea, either.
Yeah he’s an enemy combatant like Trump. Another country other than US and he’d have been blown up long ago.
> Return the stone

Cannot be stated enough. I hate gyms that turn a blind eye to people not replacing weights. I was recently visiting Orlando and went to a sort-of-well-known gym there (owner is a professional body builder) and was amazed at how many plates were on the floor. The equipment was as high-end as you could get (the best Rogue/HS) but plates EVERYWHERE to trip over. It was pretty disappointing.

Leave the rack in better shape than when you found it. That's a metaphor for life.
For me, the strongest reason to use Rust anyway is that Rust makes it practical to write a single library that can be efficiently embedded in multiple runtime environments. One probably wouldn't want to use a Go library, for example, in a C, Java, or Python project, even though it's possible with cgo. Of course, if a Rust library is using async under the hood, it'll probably run a main loop on its own thread. But that happens often enough in C and C++ libraries as well.
At some point, someone needs to explain to me why political and/or public figures are still active and using this garbage platform. I would understand this if we were like in 2005~2010 when Facebook, Twitter and co. were at the top of the hype and where centralization was not a big concern for anyone, but nowadays, with all the red flags, all the shit show and all the alternatives that there are... I really don't get it.
If I want my PWA to continue working, can I solve this by selecting "country" -> "UK" or "USA" ?
Yes. I'm talking about occasional needs for a small server for a month or two.
Oh I'm perfectly motivated to be open minded and curious without giving credence to every imaginary conspiracy that pops in my head. You can dress it up however you like but it's unsubstantiated fictive speculation 100% either way.
Maybe people on this site are aware but I can assure you average Joe has no clue.
There is a documentary called Strongland that explores the sport of stone lifting in three different cultures: Basque Country, Scotland and Iceland. It's worth a watch, very interesting and well made.
