With a free account?

I’ve heard many, many times that free accounts have a short expiry. I thought it was seven days, and I’ve just checked, and I remembered the duration correctly.

I can’t find an official source, but people mention this limit practically everywhere the topic is discussed. Here’s one reference, Google can help you find many, many more:

> Without Official Apple Dev Account

> If you don't have an official Apple Dev Account provisioning will only last for 1 week. The app will expire every 7 days (or less in some cases -- depending upon the day the initial certificate was created).

> With Official Apple Dev Account

> You will be able to provision your app for up to 1 year.

Can you create a provisioning profile with an expiry more than one week into the future with a free account?

This research is pretty dubious given they didn't do thorough ADHD diagnosis on the subjects, only a 6 question self-report test. Then they used some kinda ML hokum to supposedly strengthen their confidence in the results of those 6 questions. Seems pretty sloppy to me.
> So as I understand it, ADHD in that setup basically introduces chaos / randomness to avoid falling into local optima.

Well said. In other words, the ADHD “agent” mostly chooses the exploration strategy in the Exploration vs. Exploitation dilemma.

Having worked in one in the past, I have been thinking about this a lot. The one that i was at, just before COVID, had a single computer for all the residents which was a little bizarre.

The rest of environment and recreation programs will have to adapt.

Aging millennials will probably demand things like game consoles, coffee drinks, meals like sushi and actual exercise equipment.

Current nursing home setup are so incompatible with incoming generations, it will be a flurry of activity to adapt.
I think that's true. Perfectionism / always seeing flaws everywhere and always expecting the worst would have been a major evolutionary advantage in areas where not being prepared for winter essentially meant death for you and all your loved ones.

500 years ago, my ancestors lived in high-alpine settlements. 200 years later, they successfully lived through the 30 years war in an area where 70% of the population starved or was slaughtered to pieces. I always wondered how the traits selected by these events / environments might still affect me hundreds of years later.

>Sure if everyone had one-percenter level resources they'd be more inclined to procreate

When we look at actual billionaires, we don't see huge fertility levels. Maybe on average a bit higher than the average couple today, but nothing really significant. It's not like Bill Gates and Warren Buffet have been trying to compete with the Duggars.

The only thing more resources do is allow people to have the number of kids they truly would like to have. Most women really don't want to squeeze 15 kids out of their vaginas, and are generally happy with 2 or maybe 3.
Yeah I was totally wrong about that. But, they are NATO and part of a whole range of economic partnerships. My main point is that lots of Turks are trying to move to Berlin and work in tech. OP will have a lot of competition.
They already are, before WSL, I would be using VMWare Workstation or Virtual Box, now it is one software package less to install.

Got it, it makes sense but at the same time (as with most accounting) it... Doesn't?

A property can take a loan based on their balance sheet asset value which is based on the rent price, if those rents are too expensive for the market and keep the building mostly unoccupied it means that the asset value is inflated, since it cannot achieve its supposedly sheet value as the rent is not attractive and won't generate cash flow, if/when the building as an asset is sold the buyer will want to have it to generate cash flow and that requires renting out as much as possible for the higher amount possible, so at some point the whole charade just implodes?

Wrapping my head around financial tricks is quite hard sometimes, some of it just feels like smoke-and-mirrors way too detached from reality. Is it because it's mostly purely quantitative rather than qualitative in the 2020s?
Is the app available in Europe or in the Google Play store? Will phones be able to handle 300kbit/s network speed in case an automatic update is running or an app is trying to download something?
Corporations have long had house journals where they publish inventions they didn't patent, just to ensure no one else patents them. I think AT&T in particular had one of these.
I actually were there for the last summer edition (DreamHack Summer 2023) as I just happened to be visiting Sweden at that time, so we went there with my younger niece who enjoyed it a lot. Although he mostly played games he already had at home, he just wanted to show how good he was at those games, but for him and his generation DreamHack is 100% about the gaming.

Compared to how I remember it was when I was younger (first DreamHack must have been 2006 I think), I felt like it was very commercialized already with almost zero non-gaming booths or companies there, besides some state organizations like the police and military. DreamHack always had a huge focus on gaming, it is mostly a gaming event after all, but I seem to recall more hackery and nerdery outside of gaming back then compared to now.

Not sure how the situation is now at DreamHack, but when we were there as teenagers the best part was the huge DC++ hubs with unheard amount of bandwidth as it's all local. It was at DreamHack I first got exposed to the world of 3D animation and graphics, as I came across a cracked version of 3DS Max 9 from some user. Rest of my time at the party was spent trying to figure out how it worked.

Buying and selling hardware was also a common theme for some of my friends, starting with something like a mousepad and competing who can have the coolest thing at the end of the event, after trading up from the mousepad.

But then I don't know how the US edition is, so hard to compare really.

(By the way, I think "fairly massive" is an understatement, as far as I know, it's still the world's largest bring-your-own-computer LAN party)
It's a short term workaround, as it has no impact on real value and they have to pay the bank anyway without that income stream; so if someone feels their operation will go insolvent, that's a way to postpone it at the cost of some extra losses, but not prevent it.

Not reading, but during my degree, I found the series of control systems lectures from Brian Douglas to be useful: https://engineeringmedia.com/

He also has a free "The Fundamentals of Control Theory" book (I haven't read it, so unfortunately I can't provide an opinion on it).
That's exactly what my mind jumped to when seeing this (free IoT!), can almost expect someone will try to build some sort of automated video watcher to work around this caveat and abuse it :)
Interesting if somewhat scatterbrained interview. He's kind of wrong about cut and cover being preferable though:

How does it know that you watched the ad? Does it quiz you or what?

It actually sounds terrible. I can get a minimal prepaid sim for $30/year (200MB/mo + basic voice and text) and that sounds preferable to this thing with ads.

At the museum? As I recall, there isn't much grass there at all, it is an old factory after all. It's a waterfall, a little river and a bunch of buildings basically.
I don't understand.

I can understand VMWare doesn't want to keep doing this, but with $8M, assuming a 100k annual salary, you can dedicate 80 full time employees to this customer yearly.

I understand 8M is nothing next to 13.5B, but that can't be unprofitable, can it? Or the contract is too low.
Its easy to install SmartTubeNext on to it.
The netbook I kept referring to in some comments has finally died, a tablet has replaced it for all pratical travel purposes.
Can you explain how your paid tier works?

Is it 1.95€ a day unlimited worldwide, or are there charges on top of that?
Probably to a vertical farm as that avoids the whole interior apartments are required to have windows regulations.

The developer would likely want to remove alternate non load bearing floor|ceilings to optimise for automated farm tray stacking heights.

There are several modular designs that can be fitted into large open spaces ~two story clearance.
Not really a trap if that's what everyone agrees on. Just like you have ad-supported streaming services right now.
There's also a pretty well known Doom mini-mod which adds a ride-on lawnmower. It's called Doom Mower - Lawn of the Dead.

I love this idea. I wish there was some kind of 2024 equivalent to doing this. Maybe a rewritable optical media of some sort. Sony really should have brought the minidisc to the pc as a floppy and cd/dvd rom replacement.
Last year we took a two week vacation in Boston. I had to pay 16€ for 1GB/Week of data with my German T-Mobile contract, even when using T-Mobile US. This really sounds like a nice alternative.
iOS has a 'low data' mode option, which is helpful for low caps (and presumably, low speed) connections, as it doesn't do automatic app updates or photo syncing when that's enabled. It prompts whenever you want to download an app or an update with the size of the update and "are you sure?", which is handy just to have as a default anyway.
That is one of the hallmarks of ADHD, and also why it can be so hard for other people to imagine what it is like.
This one too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peugeot_106#Electric_version
> there certainly were no free cloud build servers for iOS since relatively recently.

There definitely were. Bitrise had a free plan back in 2014 and they weren’t the only ones.

https://web.archive.org/web/20141103031325/http://www.bitris...

Are you an iOS developer? Because you are repeatedly taking what is considered run of the mill by iOS developers as if it were some outlandish concept you’ve never heard of before. Build servers – yes, with free tiers – have been commonplace for iOS apps for at least a decade.
Arguably Venus and Mars were more habitable than Earth in the earlier solar system. Both fell off the stability wagon and now are dead worlds (with possible survival of deep underground life on Mars.)
Is there that much negativity towards VMWare? I got the impression they were generally liked by users? Still enterprise software, but good stuff, and not awful about their licencing like some other companies?
This infra would probably last a week max.
> Will phones be able to handle 300kbit/s network speed in case an automatic update is running or an app is trying to download something?

"Handle" what exactly?

If your phone downloads data, it will consume those 300kbit/s

Android Devices with Android 7.0 or higher should have a "Data Saver" feature (check buttons in Notification area) which can limit data-traffic to foreground apps, in case you want to reduce the amount of "data vampires". Especially helpful when abroad...
I have seen companies that would refuse to serve customers that had not been growing as expected. Literally. Bogles my mind.
I'd be interested in the paid version. The website doesn't have a calculator, so I'd have to download the app... No go.
How much would it cost to build VMware from scratch?
What's not good faith about this? "Your custom won't work for us unless we get 100M"

Chances are this is not actually surprising for this customer. There's probably been a lot of talk between the sides, a lot of expectations that weren't met both ways.

What you're describing at your own company seems to be that same thing, no? Relationship wasn't going well, and it's gotta end somehow.

Now that's not to say this should be normalized, it shouldn't. But there needs to be some way to say "hmm, it doesn't make sense for us, business wise"
Yes, it's extremely common in ADHD. This is called hyperfocus(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperfocus).

Inattention in ADHD isn't really the inability to focus, it's the inability to direct focus.
It seems like it's your network provider so they have access to your network activity, seems like enough to know if you've watched a video or not.

And sure, you can pay and get a better experience, but not sure that's a fair comparison, this is free after all. If you can't afford to pay anything (sometimes people end up in shitty situations), then maybe watching a video for free internet isn't that big of a deal, when the alternative is no internet at all.
that's fine. small abuse isn't worth the cost to enforce. abuse at scale, however...
The article doesn't even mention China, it's comparing the US against other Western countries like Spain, which is actually very good at building public transport.
It does say, “Pay a fair local rate.” So, I'm going to assume it is €1,95/day + local rate (not roaming rate).
Still some non-travel potential I think. I might set this up on an old smartphone to keep in my car as an emergency backup, or maybe for avoiding risk to my primary like being on a boat, at the beach, etc.

From TFA: "By that time, though, Anderson was the sole owner, and she was tired. She was looking to sell and get out of the restaurant grind."

I've been looking into this for a project of mine & most of these transitions to a purpose-based company seem to happen at the end of the road. I'm really curious to learn if anyone know about projects who start like this from inception.
>But about those savings: nothing about our economy is about rewarding savers, every single aspect of monetary and fiscal policy is to promote transactions in the economy

Because saving is not stuffing money under a mattress, it is investing it for a presumed return. And many major voting blocks benefit by hitting the presumed returns, which happens by promoting transactions.
>Is this unusual?
Do you ever go to a restaurant? Or eat while wearing your jacket?
Yes, of course. If something is really interesting to the ADHDer, he or she can completely forget every thing else and enter in hyperfocus mode [1].

When one is diagnosed, and aware of this hyperfocus thing, one can use it very efficiently. I, for one, use it to work, with the help of an app called Focus@will, where I can set a timer, and play very loud music, so my brain is focused on the task at hand.

This isn't supposed to replace your domestic carrier.
There are several flaws with your assumptions

1. "assuming a 100k annual salary" - the cost of salary is 1.75x stated wage, so in reality it's $175k

2. "you can dedicate 80 full time employees to this customer yearly" - you mean you need almost a hundred bodies per customers?!? In fact, this is a major reason to fire a customer. It means they are demanding and trying to outsource their entire org to you. Either pay up or piss off.

> that can't be unprofitable, can it

Nope.

> Or the contract is too low.

Exactly.
I do, but unless you think Apple’s hundreds of billions in hardware revenue is some kind of loss leader, it’s irrelevant.

Apple are a hardware company. It’s bizarre that you are trying to argue otherwise. They make more money from selling consumer hardware than practically every other company in the world.
Yup - for some that's pretty much the whole thing :)

A term to look into: "hyperfocus"

ADHD is sometimes talked about as being misnamed, and as more of an interest/prioritisation disorder than "attention" deficit. [1]

Urgency and other factors can help put things back at the top of the pile (which can of course bring with it all sorts of poor habits to navigate) [2]

The point of learning powershell is not because it is some great shell, but the available bindings to many subsystems, that allow you to admin them; including many toggles and options, that are not available in any gui.

What is the definition of "fair"?
I think many men don't even try or they restrict themselves to online dating. There are a lot of women looking for partners, regardless of your jawline.

Especially if you have a high level of education there seem to be a lot more women than men and intelligence equally inhibits many of them to find fitting dates. Sure, if you do online dating, better have a good resumé and some good photos.
It's the same in Europe.
We work on average way less than you do in US.

... and well, it's USA that is the superpower, not Europe.

Even looking at software salaries - in Germany/France 50k is a high salary for software engineer.
In USA you wouldn't even look at it after being fresh out the uni.
This is a pet peeve of mine: there is a table with benchmark nrs but no link to code to verify this. And in the case of JavaScript benchmarks, no explanation given for which JS engine was used either. So I just did it myself. Maybe I made a mistake in porting it but at least you can verify and fix the benchmarks yourself now in that case.

Your intuition seems correct, because the optimized version is slower for me - both on Firefox nor on Chrome. But using the Math.clz32 version I suggested elsewhere is always faster.

One other issue I have is with using () => {} as the callback. So I added a stateful callback with a small side-effect to verify whether or not this loop optimization even matters, or whether the callback overhead should be expected to dwarf it. The results do suggest optimizing the loop is worth it.

I also tried using a Uint32Array backing array, which has identical performance! That is a good sign regarding plain array optimizations[1].

On lower values the optimized options are faster, as expected although the clz32 does significantly better, and in the case of Firefox helps it (almost) catch up to Chrome.

Denmark ends Nord Stream blast investigation but blames deliberate sabotage
Denmark on Monday said it had dropped its investigation into the explosions in 2022 on the Nord Stream pipelines carrying Russian gas to Germany, becoming the second nation to do so after Sweden also closed a separate probe, Reuters reports.

The multi-billion dollar Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines transporting gas under the Baltic Sea were ruptured by a series of blasts in the Swedish and Danish economic zones in September 2022, releasing vast amounts of methane into the air.

Russia and the West, at loggerheads over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine in February that year, have pointed fingers at one another. Each has denied any involvement and no one has taken responsibility.

"There is not sufficient grounds to pursue a criminal case in Denmark ... and therefore the Copenhagen Police has decided to conclude the criminal investigation of the explosions," Denmark's police said in a statement.

Police added that they believe there was deliberate sabotage of the gas lines.

Sweden earlier this month dropped its investigation into the explosions saying it lacked jurisdiction in the case but had handed evidence uncovered over to German investigators, which are yet to publish any findings.
> Grocery store greedflation could be seen as collective producer discovery of demand curves, by dramatically spiking list prices and then slowly lowering them to find a new equilibrium above the previous stable price.

Yet the profit margins of the biggest grocery stores (Walmart/Kroger/Costco/Albertsons/etc) remain at 2%-3%, as they always have.

So there is no “greed”, just higher expenses, or there is massive fraud in the US’s financial sector.

Edit: to reply to below comment due to posting limit.

Kraft profit margin (11%, which was ~10% 15 years ago):

https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/KHC/kraft-heinz/pr...

ADM (4.3%, which was ~3% for years before):

https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/ADM/archer-daniels...

Bunge (3.77%, not increased compared to history):

https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/BG/bunge-global-sa...

The point is, complaining about greed in food businesses when they are historically low profit margin businesses, and still are for the most part (search Tyson/pilgrim/Hormel for meat, and other categories for similar profit margin trends) does not make much sense to me.

These are high labor, high liability, and low ability to scale businesses. It’s mostly their costs rising due to increased labor prices that causes price increases, and one you would expect with less and less poorer working age people in the world at the very bottom end.

I would reserve the term “greed” for software businesses with infinite scalability that not only deliver 20%+ profit margins year after year, but growth on top of that.
