The West is risking the emergence of a new Second World n the form of the BRICS+.

Our policies plus the policies of the IMF and other international agencies that exert pressure will drive them to it. Greece almost Grexited due to Germany's arm-twisting. Give it time, if the pressure keeps mounting on these countries that don't align 100% with western policies, for good reasons or not, they will form an alternative. Of course, they may have too much infighting to be successful as well. So it remains to be seen.
> It's not 60% for iPhone, and 10% split up amongst 4 other competitors

That is basically what it is though. Google is not the 40%, it's Google, Samsung, LG, Motorola, etc. Yes Google Play Store is on 40% of those devices, but they can ship with other stores and some do.

It’s not just sandboxing. The number of users who can be tricked into approving access to services (essentially phishing) is quite large.

The App Store review process actually does do a surprisingly good job at keeping malware apps off it.
I guess the annoyance is they said never, changed their mind, and auction the ticket off.

If I were the factory owner, I would reserve a ticket for him and give a discounted price to thank for his idea.
Somehow this reminded me that Ladybird is a browser being written by scratch and this has been really useful to actually make sure that there are no bugs in the spec.

In the Garmin Connect iOS app, you can choose to display notifications for any combination of Calls, Texts (i.e. Messages app), or Apps (i.e. every other app). With Pebble and Fossil, are you for example saying you can choose to display Instagram notifications but hide Snapchat? Garmin seems to indicate that their limitation of iOS, as the Android Garmin Connect app allows the user to choose individual apps to display on the watch.

My biggest complaint is that they don't even let you send photos over bluetooth to a non-apple device! There is no way to share files wirelessly.
Prove this, because I'm pretty certain this is not the case. I helped build a messaging app for iOS (Technically a TeleHeath app that needed to accept MMS/SMS also) and I saw absolutely none of this. That was a few years ago so it's possible it's changed but I'd have to see actual documentation for that. Otherwise I firmly believe this is BS and completely made up.
Scam implies intent and someone benefiting. These cryonics organizations are nonprofits run by members.
The problem as I see it is, AI doesn’t have to be extraordinary or innovative to cause major sociopolitical disruption in a capitalist, competitive, market driven society. It just has to be good enough to allow companies to save a shitload of money by eliminating jobs. And make no mistake, this technology is already close to that point. Microsoft expends vast amounts of capital on software engineering salaries and stock options every year. They want to shift that in their favor because their primary motives are completely driven by competition and market demand. Our society is not prepared for this much in the same way it was not prepared for social media algorithms that have wreaked immeasurable havoc on people’s perception and objectivity. But yet again, we’re allowing a few wealthy tech bros from Silicon Valley to seal our fate without very much oversight…

Is this different from the LTE functionality being deployed by Starlink et al which (to the best of my understanding) delivers cellular service using standard LTE functionality in within cellular frequency bands and thus didn't require specific {hard,firm,soft}ware support on the mobile device?

It would be easy to add modules from pip that do this but you'd have to code up the input pipeline. It's not terribly difficult but it is definitely not point and click.
It is as much about perception and convenience as anything else. When I talk about smartphones with non-technical people, the top complaint (against both Apple and Google) is that they try to trap customers by making it hard to move your stuff from iOS to Android or vice versa. They're running into issues for different reasons (forgotten passwords, data migration tool not getting everything) but it's fundamentally the same complaint: why does this require some specific procedure instead of just working the way I expect it to work? This may just be the grumpy nerd in me talking, but all of this would be a lot easier if mobile apps dealing with interchangeable things like photos and text saved user data to files instead of inscrutable databases by default.
Reddit gets its value from the users that were affected and pissed off by the recent events. Calling the moderators who created and continued to foster communities which exist to farm content for the company 'landed gentry' and telling them that their concerns over being able to work with a broken and incomplete toolset in their terrible app were not worthy of even a good faith conversation caused an irreconcilable awareness of exactly what they meant to in the reddit equation. You don't ever want to do that -- let people who work hard to create value for you live under the illusion (and often reality) that they are doing it for themselves and for their fellow community members, and they will happily break their backs for you and praise your platform. But if you make it obvious what you really want from them, they will realize how much energy it takes to deal with all of the moderation and cultivation and when they reach that point when one too many people called them a Nazi for removing a low effort post they look in the mirror and go 'why am I doing this' and you lose them.

Sure, it works to immediately cull a lot of the 'whiners who only cause you problems' but you end up bleeding the people who do irreplaceably valuable work for you for free, and your platform becomes a cesspool of low-effort crap and you can see that happening in real time.

They killed their golden goose.

But they got their IPO and spez is gonna cash out and wash his hands of all of it and get congrats from his silicon valley buddies and go to sleep at night thinking how much those ungrateful idiots used his platform for free and didn't understand reality and how people like him needed to be rewarded for their work. All the while ignoring the fact that he is actually just a terrible businessman who, if he hadn't met Paul Graham and given free money and an idea and hadn't gotten incredibly lucky that digg imploded at exactly the right time, he would be an upper middle class suburbanite making a living wage working as a salesman for a SaaS company or something.
That's not why I felt sour. My original request even offered to pay for it.
Nearly all Prime Ministers and their cabinets in recent history have suffered overall unpopularity and especially so in anything that might even remotely imply the potential for using the JSDF beyond its nameplate purpose.

Which is to say, no: No Japanese leader has had the kind of support necessary to ignore the law.
LLMs might help my disorganized approach to files...
Android devices can reasonably send messages between each other, by default. The whole issue here is that Apple has been intentionally holding back the cross-platform messaging experience in order to make competitors seem less appealing.

Turning off prefetching while running crypto code would be a performance gain before you can implement the algorithms safely without even more expensive and fragile software mitigations. Just give me the option of configuring parts of the caches (at least data + instructions + TLBs) as scratchpad and and a "run without timing side-channels pretty please" bit with a clearly defined API contract and accessible (by default) to unprivileged userspace code. Lots of cryptographic algorithms have such small working sets that they would profit from a constant-time accessible scratchpad in the L1d cache if they get to use data dependent addresses into it again.

You cannot separate SMS messages from iMessages (to my knowledge)

I have only had an iphone for a few months, and I haven’t tried it yet, but when I enabled imessage I had the option of using an email address instead of my phone number. and From an android users perspective texting an iphone user is terrible, because they are incapable of sending quality photos, i suspect they just default to over compression for mms

…on a side note, the overall iphone experience is not great, everything just feels like it is trying to stop me from doing what i want. Not that android was all that better, but I definitely felt a bit more free with even simple things like how copy/paste works.
Agreed, the only time I ever saw OKRs work in my professional life was a (sadly) brief ~6 month period during which cascading OKRs were strictly enforced from CEO down.

I suspect folks don't like that because it forces middle management to actually decide, for real, who is doing what, rather than allowing multiple different teams to fragment off chunks of what should be a whole (which then lets them both claim personal victory and deflect blame for the whole actually failing)
They'll lock it down like an iPhone soon enough. The writing has been on the wall for years. Apple and Microsoft are frothing at the mouth to do this. But they have to do slowly boil the frog, because they know it's the only way people will accept these kind of changes.
I repeat - are there any laptops that actually work this way? I have a pro and an air and as far as I know if the screen is open, it's turned on regardless of whether I have external monitors hooked up or not.

The original commenter was taking a dig at MacBooks, and I'm calling him on it - where does it say that the Pro will operate like this, and do any other laptops do it? Neither of mine seem to, and my work Dell doesn't either as far as I know.

If the lid is closed, you need to use an external keyboard (obviously). If the lid is open, you can choose to use either the built-in keyboard or an external one. No one ever said you couldn't use an external keyboard. The OP wants to use the built-in keyboard but not the built-in screen (i.e. the screen should be off). The commenter seems to think that it's an intentional anti-feature that is only available on the Pro model. I believe that there are no laptops that do this, and I wouldn't personally care to work that way even if they did.

So to answer your specific comment, the user is always free to use the built-in keyboard or an external keyboard. Unless, of course, the lid is closed - then you pretty much have to use an external keyboard.

I've told this story before, but I'll tell it again. Years ago I worked for Apple retail when Bootcamp was a thing and it was "unsupported" and not only was it behind security switches, but you had to go out of your way to download and set it up.

I had a customer come in one morning steaming mad and demanding a refund for her new macbook. She was mad because (to paraphrase) she has been told that she wouldn't have all the problems and crashes her windows machine had and wouldn't have to deal with viruses and a host of other windows specific issues if she used a mac. But after a few weeks she was still having all of the same problems. The more she described the issue, the more it sounded like she'd never even bought a mac, but here she was with a 3 week old macbook in a box. And beyond that, she described having some hardware issues that had been corrected with a firmware update months earlier. The first boot and software update should have corrected all of that.

So I asked her to show me some of what it was doing. She took it out of the box, switched it on and it booted right into windows. And then proceeded to dump a ton of malware popups all over the screen just as she'd said. It turns out, she did indeed buy the macbook 3 weeks earlier, and then gave it to her "computer smart nephew" to setup for her. Well Mr. Nephew apparently decided in his infinite wisdom that is aunt didn't need macOS, she just needed an expensive windows machine. And so he'd downloaded bootcamp, shrunk the macOS partition to the smallest size it could be, and then installed windows and configured the machine to boot into windows by default. She'd never used macOS and didn't even know it was there, and so had never gotten the firmware updates for the hardware, and was of course having all the same problems she had in windows normally, because she was still using windows, only this time without any malware software because "macs don't need Norton".

The end result is I showed the customer what had happened, got them squared away with the mac OS side an asked them to give it a try for a few weeks with a personal guarantee we'd return it if she still didn't like it. She became one of our best customers. But the moral of the story is twofold:

1) Not everyone who uses tech makes the decisions for how that tech is configured

2) "no support" is a good way to ensure that those #1 people hate your product

Spotify doesn’t even let you buy Premium in the App on iOS anymore, it’s the same price for everyone. So no, it isn’t increasing prices since Spotify isn’t giving a 30% cut to Apple in the first place. As a consumer there’s literally no way for me to funnel money to Apple via Spotify. Spotify could choose to charge 30% more for an App Store IAP, but they’d rather be hostile to consumers and just offer nothing through that mechanism.
Let me explain again since it went over your head the first time.

Companies, all else being equal, will choose less regulation over more regulation. If TikTok could release outside of the App Store where no one can inspect what they do, they would only release it there. Users addicted to the app wouldn’t suddenly stop using it but now they would be exposed to whatever TikTok feels like doing. They will choose the path of least resistance, not all the paths. It’s not that hard to understand.

You can download all your data from the Apple Website. Heartbeat, GPS etc. are plainly available. I wrote an app that converts Lat/lon to distance traveled.
Well, that is true. But presumably selection pressure —- namely, the need for things to work reliably and in an organized fashion —- imposes structure on systems that parallels the kind of organization that engineers use to make complicated systems work reliably. There’s a reason that complex organisms concentrate specific functions into organs with recognizable interfaces rather than scattering those cells widely throughout the body, in the same way that a human-engineered mechanism is usually constructed from parts. The fact that this allows for organ transplants isn’t really by design, but it’s a convenient outcome.
I wonder if we can get those in the U.S. It doesn't look like that's the point though. They seem to sell the infrastructure, the batteries are part of it.

"Super Apps" raise two technical issues:

1. Allowing such apps to handle their own payment processing across multiple applications. This means Apple doesn't get to force everyone through the in-app purchasing funnel and collect a transaction fee. There could be an exception made that the fee is waived for purchasing physical goods and services through the super-app. This shouldn't be a hard change. The big fight will be over selling digital content and what is a fair percentage.

2. Allow users to install binary plugins or extensions into a single app without going through an AppStore review. Apple does not currently allow this unless the plugins or extensions are web-based and can run inside the webkit sandbox.

They'll have a strong argument that forcing them to allow running arbitrary, unreviewed code will open up big security holes.
I wonder how this compares to using Discog's API [1] and searching by barcode with a USB barcode scanner. Almost all of my record covers have some sort of barcode on them and I find the accuracy of searching Discogs to be quite high for records with reasonable popularity. Given the examples shown in the video, I would expect no problem.

Why would police refuse to release security camera footage showing the witness in the parking lot? This looks extremely suspicious and is getting national attention.

> While cognitive tests to distinguish mild cognitive impairment from pathologic decline do exist, they take about 15 minutes, which can be hard to come by during the limited time of a doctor’s visit and may require a follow-up appointment.

Maybe in a mass communications piece about mild cognitive impairment, it might be useful to say something about what distinguishes it from "normal aging".

The main issue I have with tree-sitter is that it’s approach can’t work for many languages I care about: Common Lisp cannot be parsed without a full lisp implementation; Haskell’s syntax is complicated enough that the grammar is incomplete; C/C++ can’t be parsed accurately if only because of the pre-processor; parsing perl is Turing-complete, etc. I think the suggestion elsewhere makes sense: don’t make us write parsers in a new ecosystem, but instead define a format for existing parsers to produce as a side-output.
Underrated observation. Discord has stayed in the shadows to the wider audience but in terms of quality content and community building, from my POV it’s already surpassed Reddit’s peak. I don’t like that it’s yet another proprietary platform, and the ownership/business side is shady to say the least. But man, the product is light years ahead in almost every respect, except (importantly) discoverability.
