So yeah, will "last", in the sense of getting security updates, for one more year probably, which is indeed "lasting longer" as the salesperson said.

Of course Apple don't make any guarantees about how long they support products, so you never know. My 2017 iMac Pro still gets the latest OS whereas my dad's 2017 iMac does not. But looking at the iPhones, where the iPhone X lost support one year before the iPhone XS, which was very similar, I think it's a reasonable bet to say the M2 will lose support a year before M3.
Just to continue this: it is the school's responsibility to ensure their students (and faculty) are safe. It is not their responsibility to punish anyone beyond that scope. If there is to be punitive punishment that would come from the legal system.

Though, personally, it'll be interesting to see what crime was committed in the making of the content. To me this sort of behavior isn't unexpected. It's yet another example of technology outpacing geriatric capacity.
You're free to argue whatever you want, but claiming that a file system should have folders as the parent commenter did, or support specific operations, seems a bit meaningless.

I could create a system not supporting folders because it relies on tags or something else. Or I could create a system which is write-only and doesn't support rename or delete.

These systems would be file systems according to how the term has been used for 40 (?) years at least. Just don't see any point in restricting the term to exclude random variants.

Engineers stopped running such firms long ago cause they are totally inept at financial engineering. Its the financial engineers who run things, and you can bet right now whatever happens they will get the govt to bail them out. The culture will only change when financial engineering is reined in or part of tech/engineering education. Until then John Oliver will have a never ending supply of such stories from helpless engineers who are so out of control over anything they run to stand up comedians to cry about their problems.

Let me suggest a nonsensical idea just for fun: let's found a scientific institute (staffed with volunteers and funded with donations, obviously) purposefully limited to conduct all their tasks (actual science, administrative chores, living) with stone age tools only. Or perhaps also with medieval and whatever they manage to build themselves using such.

It would be very curious to see what modern, educated, exclusively high-IQ (implied from them having managed to graduate in science) humans can achieve in a stone age setting.

Some of these have always been quite counterintuitive to me, particularly the networking ones. Google Stadia was always an exercise in edge cases in expectations on these numbers for me.

It felt weird that a gaming computer in a datacenter could be "faster" than a computer on my network, but one frame takes ~16ms to render, bandwidth is big enough to stream, network latency might only be another ~frame, and suddenly the image is on my machine within 2 or 3 frames. However there were unexpectedly slow parts! The controller actually ran over WiFi directly, so that inputs went straight to the server rather than via Bluetooth, comparing with Xbox Cloud on a Bluetooth controller, this made a huge difference, but that makes sense because Bluetooth's latency might be 1-2 frames itself. It's counterintuitive to me that the latency from my controller to my computer, less than 1m, might be higher than the latency from my computer, to my router, to my ISP, to Google's DC, and to a server. Similarly, the latency on HDMI from a computer to my TV is in the same ballpark of a few frames because of all the processing my cheap TV does to look good.

> We should strive to make bicycle infrastructure straight and easy, and make cars take detours.

This is the key to encouraging Active Travel. So much infrastructure is designed primarily for motor traffic and provision for cyclists tends to be just tacked on and not really thought about in any depth.

One big problem with cycling is when you get a road with lots of light-controlled junctions that makes you keep stopping and starting - the loss of momentum can turn an easy ride into an exhausting one. It's particularly galling when you can see that there is room for cyclists to safely go through a red light (c.f. Idaho Stop style laws) and so you have to decide between being a law-abiding citizen of the road, or instead treat red lights as advisory. Sometimes, it's even worse than just slowing you down as junctions can be quite dangerous if you're setting off at the same time as motorists - I aim to anticipate the lights changing and get a brief head-start so that I can be highly visible in front of the drivers and across the junction before anyone has a chance to turn across me.

I watched the original report from Al-Jazeera on the 787 (called "Broken Dreams") where those factory line scenes were filmed when it came out in 2014. There's no editing from LWTN to make it look worse, in my opinion the original reporting was much more damning than what the clips show.

“Lying to the court” is not necessary for an effective defense, and defendants are not obligated to testify in the first place.

Remember that perjury is also a crime and you’re not “allowed” to commit perjury just because you’re testifying in your own defense (which is your choice).

If you’re actually guilty, your defense is supposed to challenge the validity of the evidence the prosecution is using to convict you. Not lie to the court and hope your lies are more convincing than the prosecution’s evidence.

Ask HN: Why does no one need an increasing ringtone volume on an iPhone anymore?
There was a time when there seemed to be quite a few requests for/complaints about iPhones not having an option for gradually increasing the ringtone volume when a calls is incoming.

I realise it must never have been a priority feature for Apple to implement, but I’m curious about why it seems that no one cares that it is missing anymore.

Does no one find it useful anymore? Perhaps because it is more acceptable to have a phone ring in many situations now. Perhaps the people who cared bought Apple Watches. Do people still want it, but internet searches favour the old questions/complaints?

Unimportant, but I’m curious.
> Should it be possible for my technology to send data to a server without my explicit approval?

Of course not. We should be able to intercept every request, filter them, even modify them to send fake data instead if we wish it.

My commute to the office is 37km, though nowadays I mainly work from home. I tend to go in once a week, so I do one journey by train (the office is right next to a train station which is handy) and take my bike on board and the other journey I cycle if it's not raining too much. In the pre-COVID times, I used to go to the office everyday and built up my stamina/fitness enough so that I could do both journeys by bike (weather permitting). It's not particularly difficult doing that kind of distance (I'm over 50) but it helps if you treat it as fitness training - 80 minutes cycling instead of 80 minutes in a gym.
Warning over use in UK of unregulated AI chatbots to create social care plans
Also, most workplaces in the US don’t have showers available. My commute is 7 miles (11 km). On average it takes me about 40 minutes for the ride and another 15-20 minutes to shower and change my clothes.

40 minutes might be a slow pace for many, but there’s a couple of decent hills, a bunch of stop signs and lights, and my steel frame bike with my panniers filled with the stuff I need for the day is pretty heavy.

An e-bike could change the equation significantly.

> In S3, renaming a "folder" is O(number of files).

More like O(max(number of files, total file size)). You can’t rename objects in S3. To simulate a rename, you have to copy an object and then delete the old one.

Unlike renames in typical file systems, that isn’t atomic (there will be a time period in which both the old and the new object exist), and it becomes slower the larger the file.

This is great. Lots of feedback and info sharing from everyone’s collective knowledge base. Lot of feedback from thr grey beards around in the retro era eg 1980-1990 and those who are on the bleeding edge inventing the future. Good job. Keep going.

1) If a technology didn’t exist. I’d make the bar black / grey. The pedants will hound you to death

2) A means to see the trend of a given feature on log plot if necessary. Eg Memory access 1980-2030 is interesting.

3) An info icon on the bar (i in a circle) to get details about the measurement. Disks seek for example is pegged at 1ms because it’s where mechanical disks have limits. If so is it track to track or full stroke seek ?
> If I could change one thing about S3's API I would like an option to read the metadata with the listings.

Agree. In MinIO (disclaimer: I work there) we added a "secret" parameter (metadata=true) to include metadata and tags in listings if the user has the appropriate permissions. Of course it being an extension it is not really something that you can reliably use. But rclone can of course always try it and use it if available :)

> You can create zero length files ending in /

Yeah. Though you could also consider "shared prefixes" in listings as directories by itself. That of course makes directories "stateless" and unable to exist if there are no objects in there - which has pros and cons.

> Or alternatively a way of setting the Last-Modified on an object when you upload it would do too.

Yes, that gives severe limitations to clients. However it does make the "server" time the reference. But we have to deal with the same limitation for client side replication/mirroring.

My personal biggest complaint is that there isn't a `HeadObjectVersions` that returns version information for a single object. `ListObjectVersions` is always going to be a "cluster-wide" operation, since you cannot know if the given prefix is actually a prefix or an object key. AWS recently added "GetObjectAttributes" - but it doesn't add version information, which would have fit in nicely there.
Sorry, want to dig in a little bit here to help me improve for next time. I really appreciate your replies.

When you say it’s impossible to see times and text labels at the same time, are you aware you can move each bar to any height on the screen? They move to the height of the cursor when you click. It’s extremely unobvious, I know, I’m sorry.
All the issues are systemic, so it can't be the responsibility of some low-level employees. But it is kind of curious that Boeing suddenly wants to buy Spirit Aerosystems.
All really great feedback, thank you <3
They do that because nobody wants to look at hundreds of dead bodies or talk to grieving widows, or search through rubble for broken airplane parts or data recorders. That's not so funny.

Just because comedy shows focus on entertainment value doesn't mean there's no evidence. They have a different focus from investigators or courts, but in democratic countries, the funds to run investigations come from politicians and public outcry, and that comes from the people actually giving a sh*t about it. So they do perform a function.
Because they're language models and not truth models. Buying stuff, incorrect information can be harmful.

The notion of postgres not being able to run on s3 has more to do with the characteristics of how it works than with it not being a filesystem. After all, people have developed fuse drivers for s3 so they can actually pretend it's a filesystem. But using that to store a database is going to end in tears for the same reasons that using e.g. NFS for this is also likely to end in tears. You might get it to work but it won't be fast or even reliable. And since NFS actually stands for networked file system, it's hard to argue that NFS isn't a filesystem.

Whether something is or isn't a filesystem requires defining what that actually is. A system that stores files would be a simple explanation. Which is clearly something S3 is capable of. This probably upsets the definition gatekeepers for whatever more specific definitions they are guarding. But it has a nice simple logic to it.

It's worth considering that file systems have had a long history, weren't always the way they are now, and predate the invention of relational databases (like postgres). Technically before hard disks were invented in the fifties, we had no file systems. Just tapes and punch cards. A tape would consist a single blob of bits, which you'd load in memory. Or it would have multiple such blobs at known offsets. I had cassettes full of games for my commodore 64. But no disk drive. These blobs were called files but there was no file system. Sometime, after the invention of disks file systems were invented in the early sixties.

Hierarchical databases were common before relational databases and filesystems with directories are basically a hierarchical database. S3 lacking hierarchy as a simpler key value store clearly isn't a hierarchical database. But of course it's easy to mimic one simply by using / characters in the keys. Which is how the fuse driver probably fakes directories. And S3 even has APIs to listfiles with a common prefix. A bigger deal is the inability to modify files. You can only replace them with other files (delete and add). That kind of is a show stopper for a database. Replacing the entire database on every write isn't very practical.
As I wrote elsewhere, under EASA rules high ranking people at an organization holding design and / or production organisation approvals, are personally responsible, and liable incl. criminal liability, to make sure their organisation works properly. I forget the exact term for this role so.

Not sure about FAA rules, but I assume they are somewhat similar. So at the very least, those individuals, at Boeing and Spirit Aerospace, should be a tad worried now. By the way, senior means VP-levek and above, usually one for the design side (propably less relevant in the door plug question), one on production side (they should be worried), one each for design and production quality (same as above, the production quality oeople should be worried a lot) as well as one for supply chain and other functiobs with less responsibilities (the supply chain people are imolicated in this door plug thing as).

Personally, I don't see how the FAA can just let this slip, their relationship with international partbers and their reputation is already damaged by the 737 MAX, so they have to do something about it.
