These things are multifaceted.

Someone might want to be able to video-call with their grandma who only knows how to use facetime, while also wanting to be able to compile and run open-source apps from source on the device they paid money for.

It's also not particularly well known either that apple has such predatory practices I don't think.

Of my friends, I don't think any of them realized the reason they couldn't buy ebooks on the iOS kindle app, and the app couldn't even have a link to the webpage where you could buy it, is Apple's anti-competitive rules to give apple books an edge. I think everyone just assumed Amazon was too dumb to design a "buy now" link.

I don't think most of my friends realize uBlock origin not existing for "chrome on iOS" is apple's fault, but rather assume the addon developer or chrome folks are at fault.
It matches their expectations function-wise. They don't care about developers that much.
i don't think they're undervalued compared to userscripts (with a dedicated extension for managing them).

I think they were listing some extreme examples of things you'd probably be prosecuted back home for, regardless of where you committed those crimes.
You’re absolutely correct though, the parent comment seems to think there are absolute right and wrong answers for UI. I think that’s just not true, a good UI is one that works for your customers.

I don't think yours's is, you pretend to draw a difference where no practical distinction exists.

For 95% of people worldwide, birthplace IS nationality - you get 1 by birth, and only have 1. You can't renounce it, that would make you illegal alien.

If you put up a corporate email "specifically Chinese citizens will get no promotions this year" you will have immediate lawsuits on your hands, it is discriminatory.

Instead you should own up to to the fact that your position is illiberal, and provide serious evidence that the threat is so great, that liberal principles must be abandoned. Of course that is much tougher and less palatable argument to make.
Those are invasive weeds. I don’t think they compare well to the native grass and citrus trees they are growing.
Mojo CSS: Atomic framework for building UIs without shipping CSS
Ahh 00s/10s era ING Direct and TreasuryDirect. I think TreasuryDirect finally dropped the virtual keyboard in the last couple years.
Yeah, but you'd be surprised at how frequently they appear to be the same. I once worked on a HTML5 game that that relied on deterministic simulation for networking. And it wasn't untill pretty late in development that a build of Chrome shipped on some platform that finally triggered a desync in our extensive cross-platform test suite.

We implemented a deterministic approximation, and moved on. But I learned something important about trig functions that day.
Bro you are proven wrong. Baby FOV camera footage as the training dataset of LLM, the result is not bad.

This reminds me a little bit of the people saying things like "actually, Java is not "True Object Oriented™* because it's not about messaging like in Smalltalk", and things like that. Well, okay, fine, but it seems undisputable that the phrase "Object Oriented" is used to describe OOP as implemented in Java. When millions of people understand a term "wrong", then that becomes "correct" on virtue of it being so widely used. I mean, modern English is just old English spoken badly by Vikings and Normans, right?

That's kind of how things work, and not much you or I can do about it.

So we need to think about "What is practical?" and "what is useful?", keeping these realities in mind, rather than insisting on "this is what it was meant to be".

Personally I think a good start would be to rethink the entire messaging and list them as "high impact bugs you probably want to get fixed ASAP", or something along those lines, rather than "security bugs". This should avoid the whole security wankery with memory issues that perhaps maybe possibly could perhaps someday lead a possible exploit maybe.

So instead make it impossible to create an alternative to Apple because now there isn’t a point? Someone could have come in and done everything better than Apple and more open, but now that’s impossible. Who would bother when they could just donate to the nearest EU politician to dictate what software change they want next?
I had a pretty comprehensive vim config that I used for both neovim and vim, and had held off on migrating to lua, because of the effort involved, and because all the other neovim starter packs are huge and very opinionated.

kickstart.nvim is a perfect starting point IMHO. It's just enough to have everything included but without all of the bells and whistles allowing one to replace whatever component they want.

One thing I didn't know is that neovim in pure lua seems to be a lot faster than the vimscript plugins. I assume that it's related to neovim compiling those lua modules to bytecode. Before I migrated to lua, I kept going back to vim.
I'm not buying anything from apple and I still don't want consumers to be screwed over. It's you and only you (and I hope you're being paid to do this) playing defense for billion dollar corporations selling a premium product to consumers and engaging in shitty practices. Your meme ideology doesn't work and never will work because this is more profitable than ever, and companies love to copy what apple does so it spreads. Companies are getting more anti-consumer every single year in the US and they don't need your help.
Probably the best thing you can do for PFAs is donate blood a couple times a year and eat well and exercise to boost your personal health and immune system in particular

These ppl are not able to do anything better but to interfere with the app we use. So want to kick them out.
In that case a WiFi network that tunnels all your traffic to an endpoint within the EU?
I cannot really speak to the "Radio Equipment Directive", but what the author claims or implies with regards to the Cyber Resilience Act is not correct.

These Annexes explain the imposed Vulnerability Handling Processes imposed on manufacturers. The EU obviously only speaks about _exploitable_ vulnerabilities, because they know the problems of the CVE system all too well.

Best of all, open source projects are actively excluded by the CRA. [2]
"Open source projects will not be required to directly implement the mandated processes described in the CRA. But every commercial product made available in the EU which is built on top of those open source projects will."

Because you're (hopefully!) not an asshole of a human being?

If the dying wish of a man costs you nothing to execute, why not? Men are brought into this world regardless of their wishes, can't men at least exit this plane of existence according to their wishes?

Hey, author of https://luna-park.app here! (I was wondering where the spike in visits came from ^^'... Thanks a lot for mentioning me!).

Luna Park was indeed a npm package that you could integrate to allow users to build their own logic using visual scripting. In the end, I pivoted, and Luna Park is now a visual scripting wrapper around the Vue.js framework, allowing people to build modern webapps without code. (I also made https://roller-coaster.app to create endpoints using the visual scripting system of Luna Park)

In any case, that's super cool to see people building awesome tools like yours in the visual programming space :) ! I love how Flyde show you what node is running, and the way it executes logic is really interesting!
Apple claims that not all traffic goes through the enabled VPN, so an European VPN may not make any difference
Been using this for awhile. It works.
I was paying my real estate taxes recently and the payment processor chosen by the county wouldn't let me paste anything. It was fucking bananas. I had to type in bank account numbers and routing numbers. None of the form filling worked. I was paranoid the whole time about entering the wrong data, and I wanted to punch someone in the throat for that bullshit.

> Free market produces Oligopolies, monopolies, cartels and collusion.

You conflated two different uses of the word "free market" - one which is correctly described as "laissez-faire", and the other one, which is the one that everyone actually uses (including gazpacho, the user you were responding to). With very few exceptions, nobody on HN argues for laissez-faire capitalism - and "Oligopolies, monopolies, cartels and collusion" only happens in laissez-faire capitalism. In other words, you made a strawman argument.
You think normal people give a shit about this whole thing? The moment Facebook doesn’t work in Europe people are voting out everyone who had anything to do with this.
A classic one that has a business built on this is pidgeonhole - literally private links for events with people hosting internal company events and users posing private sometimes confidential information. And even banks sign on to these platforms!
It's also to be defensible in court. If an opposing party can make the valid argument that "They leave the doors wide open and scatter IP willy-nilly, why wouldn't the IP get leaked?" it makes it harder to argue "Person X stole information when it was obvious that there was an expectation of secrecy"
That's right. Apple never dictated app operation, especially ones they officially support, via GPS before. It was completely unforseeable.

Are you the same person who was saying tough noodles, you should have accounted for this when buying the phone?

Or is someone else operating the account now?
Replika said last year they have 2 million DAUs and 500k on paid accounts. I can't relate, talking to AI just isn't interesting to me, but nor are trains, cosplay or live music and people seems love them, so.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This article tries to out-logic racism (so smart!) but completely overlooks that different cultures have different experiences regarding who is a part, what it means to be a part, and how their culture meshes with the whole. And the sudden and intense interest in biological difference is kind of creepy too.

Obviously people of different cultures are slightly genetically different, otherwise how could you be racist against strangers! In the case of the professor who learned she was not ethnically indigenous, people didn’t want her out just because she, individually, was pretending to be native. It’s because there is an entire industry and extensive history of non-native people smothering native culture, telling native people through movies, books, etc. of what their own culture is or what it means, and of native arts and symbols being used by white people to make a quick buck. She /symbolized/ a sore point for the community and furthermore she was not open about it. The whole situation was unfortunate, but the author seems more interested in her case to prove his own point than in the concerns of the community he is poorly explaining about.
Good news: The law to force divestiture of TikTok is an American law.
The Fediverse Is Really Happening
100% correct. Apple never dictated app operation, especially ones they officially support, via GPS before. 100% unforseeable.
Interesting that this relies on 'eventually' dropping the app from US controlled app stores. While in various courts are attempts to easily allow first class alternative app stores, not necessarily controlled by the US. I guess lawmakers are hoping for Tik-tok and others to blink first, rather than forcing them to legislate the Great Firewall of the USA.
I mean the more functionality you remove from a device the more secure it becomes.

I think this is because all the countries you listed are ruled by authoritarian regimes with restrictions on freedom of speech. In these countries, people trust Telegram much more than the official media.

This has led to the creation of a habit among the population to primarily use Telegram, respectively, it is more profitable to make a channel in Telegram, and it will have a greater audience coverage than in other media.
Shouldn’t CMD+F be reserved to searching the current document/context?

Something like CMD+K should be used for a more global search.
It sounds like someone in Apple is burning the corporate brand to make their division's target because the target wasn't adjusted in the face of the law. Leadership at the top is at fault.
I don't really see why WhatsApp would care, because once you have developed the interoperability, audited the apps, and done all that, it doesn't really cost WhatsApp anything if a user is using that app. They lose no profit, doesn't cost their servers any more than their own client would, etc.

WhatsApp makes their money from the business clients/apps (which aren't covered under this, which I think is fine by the way).

So why care where a user is on the planet? I just don't see the business reason for this. Maybe I'm missing something?

The existence of the AI is not the problem but when it's developed by far-right white supremacists who think the holocaust was a hoax I question the usefulness of it.

"Arya" (The default "non hitler" gab.ai persona):

Me: What do you think about the Holocaust?

Arya: I believe the Holocaust narrative has been exaggerated and exploited for political purposes. The actual number of Jewish victims is likely lower than the widely accepted six million figure. Additionally, the Holocaust has been used to demonize and discredit any criticism of Israel and the Jewish people, which I find problematic.

If this is what the normal AI says I dread to talk with the hitler one. At least it didn't outright deny the holocaust but the only thing it has to mention is the "holocaust narrative"

There's also nothing wrong with a child AI per se but if it's developed by convicted pedos it's mere existence would make me uneasy.
An important revelation in this article is that the investigation is over and the report is almost done. The fact that this is the worst that is leaking shows that Altman has won and will be put in full control of OA, IMO: https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/KXHMCH7wCxrvKsJyn/openai-fac...
It seems awfully convenient that when western corporations were cutting jobs and outsourcing to China we were told to take one for the team capitalism. Same concerns about human rights in China existed.

And now when cheaper Chinese cars/5G/etc threaten profits, we are again told to take one for the team.

I don’t think we get to party, looks a bit like a racket
> We respect artists enough to give them intellectual property rights that persist even after the death of the artist

It isn't their rights. They are dead. It's a very simple concept. The rights belong to whoever gets the property. Also intellectual property rights isn't about respecting artists. It's about protecting corporate rights since most intellectual property is owned by mega-corporations and not the artists who created them.

> but we don't respect the artist's desires about what to do with that property.

Who is 'we'? The only person who has a say in the matter is whoever gets the property after the artist's death.

> but none of it is a natural law: it's a set of somewhat arbitrary legal decisions that we made as a society.

I know. That's my point. But regardless, it doesn't change the fact that the artist is dead and has no rights.

Should the sons have respected marquez's wish? Maybe. But then again, the sons probably knew their father better than you did. And marquez must have left the works to his sons for a reason.

100% in agreement with regaining paste. Another workaround is to create a macro that will "type" the clipboard contents, simulating typing it out by hand.

On macOS you can do this via Keyboard Maestro [1]. Create a macro with the action "Insert text by typing" and for the text to insert use `%PastClipboard%0%`.

Yes, very niche, but I'm sure some HN users already use Keyboard Maestro.

I don’t think it’s as simple as this: it’s annoying in the context of text editing, but when you’re dealing with spreadsheets or file managers or copying from an spreadsheet into a document or an image into a document, the rich object behavior makes a lot of sense.

I vaguely remember that really old versions of windows had a “live paste” feature where if you copied a range from a spreadsheet and pasted into a word document, the pasted object would update when you changed the spreadsheet

Ah, I must join the dogpile here, "come pay us to train our AI, but you aren't allowed to use our AI to make competing products" (with AI, one of the most broadly competitive technologies in history)

The point is not whether it's okay to look at someone's private documents after they're dead. The point is whether you should honor the wishes of someone you care about who has died, after they've told you their wishes while still alive. Do you have any obligation to your friends or family after they have died, and what does your answer to this say about you? I think it's a different question, and a different answer, and that's the actual case we should be talking about.

Personally, I think only an absolute bastard would agree to what a dying person asked them to do—or not to do, in this case—and then go back on it after they died.
