I like your approach towards this, I'm thinking the same. I appreciate the response you provided, I've been planning on playing around with it for a

DVD FLLC? How is that related to DVD Forum or DVD+RW Alliance? And why they use Comic Sans on their site...
This take is a tad naive.

The App Store absolutely enforces Apple’s preferred position in its marketplace.

Apple stifles direct competitors in media (music streaming, TV/movies/video, video games, books). They force competitors like Netflix to pay obscene royalties or abstain from selling subscriptions within their apps at all. This wouldn’t be a restriction on a third party App Store.

Another example: you’re not allowed to install a browser with an alternative rendering engine. Apple is forcing their browser engine to have enough marketshare so that developers won’t ignore it. Make no mistake, they absolutely would lose significant browser engine marketshare and developer attention without this arbitrary restriction because a significant amount of users would prefer to install Chrome with Chrome’s rendering engine. If Safari becomes irrelevant to the web then Apple loses economic control to competitors, it’s basically following Microsoft’s 90’s browser strategy with a little twist here. A third-party App Store would allow for consumer choice in that regard.

Don’t forget that mobile games are a more lucrative market than all consoles and PCs combined, and Apple is collecting a significant chunk of that revenue via royalties for in-app purchases and advertisements in the App Store. It’s a multi-billion dollar business just for Apple.

Make no mistake, this is not a side project. Apple’s services revenue is larger than Mac and iPad sales combined and has the potential for much higher operating margins.
Ask HN: Anyone interested in a tool like this?
So I got the idea to make a desktop app or command line app
that allows you to merge multiple YouTube videos into a single long one with ytdl + ffmpeg.

I can think of two use cases where this could be useful.

1) You want to put something on your TV. You would use my tool to create a long stream of curated YouTube videos and then you would put it on your TV to playback. Like making your own TV program.

2) If you're a parent and want absolute control on what your children are exposed to on YouTube. You create a single long video which contains the videos they want to watch and nothing else and then you give it to them.

Are any of these use cases realistic? Any parents who would find this useful.

I personally don't need something like this but the idea just came to me. It might be worth building.
This should work fantastic in theory, since differing vocabulary (not grammar) is the main factor that determines the difficulty of a new language. Putting off this primary obstacle so one can ease into it sounds genius to me. It also agrees with the method hyped by Steve Kaufman, where one should read and speak level-appropriate material.

For the same reason drugs and gambling have policies - the government is (supposed to be) the collective will of the people and enough people deem it harmful to society as a whole.

There are levels of government that regulate even things like heights of fences in neighborhoods (you could pick something more serious, like occupancy limits to buildings), is it wild to think we wouldn't apply some level of policy to highly addictive and demonstrably detrimental surveillance capitalism?
Apple doesn't break it down, so this is all analysts-guessing, but the guesses I've seen for the share of Services revenue that App Store represents have been in the 25-35% range.

Right! That's why I suggest "proud of" not "sure there are no flaws". If your level of "I'm proud of this thing" is "I can't think of any way to improve it" then you should probably recalibrate.
It's perhaps not surprising that the security benefits of the App Store are under systemic pressures, as aftermath of Apple inconveniencing many organizations by adding so many privacy features to iOS. Many of the numerous organizations that leverage user data will want new capabilities for obtaining information from iOS, to replace or even to expand beyond what was previously available.

Widevine has already been reverse engineered. You just need to extract a device private key and there are numerous methods for doing so. "Web Environment Integrity" will never work.
> It's true though that in most cases single-threaded event-loop concurrency is sufficient.

This still sounds very web-centric.

In general, concurrency and parallelism are really orthogonal concepts. When threads are used for concurrency, e.g. to handle multiple I/O bound tasks, they do indeed compete with coroutines (async). But when we want parallelism, coroutines are not even an option. That's why it irks me when people compare threads with coroutines without specifying the exact use case.

> I prefer process-parallelism over threaded parallelism for such workloads

Process-parallelism is just a special case of multithreading and in many domains its not even a realistic option.
U.S. Accuses Chinese Hackers of Targeting Critical Infrastructure in America
per apple they paid $60 billion to iOS developers. Given 70/30 split, that's $26 billion of revenue to Apple.

For context in 2022 Adobe made $17.6 billion.

So 30% cut of iOS store is 40% more than Adobe revenue.

And I'm guessing the bandwidth + review team overhead is many times lower than, you know, actually paying software developers, marketers, sales people etc. to write and promote software.

It's weird, but it's also how language evolves sometimes. Once used in a certain way, words or parts of words take on that meaning.

For example, there's an apartment and office building complex on a site near a historic canal and dam. The building development was named after this site. Then in one of the apartments (CORRECTION: offices), a scandalous political event happened. The complex was called Watergate, the scandal was called Watergate too, and now the suffix -gate is used for scandals.

More:

- you can't uninstall Safari. The DMA clearly requires Apple to allow uninstalling it.

- the Share Sheet for in-app webview privileges Safari (Safari-specific "Add to Reading List", "Add Bookmark" at the top) regardless of default browser.

- apps with in-app webviews can roll out a custom engine, but otherwise it uses WebKit regardless of default browser. It should obviously use the webview facility provided by the default browser, if it offers one.

- confusing to change defaults. There's no central "Default Apps" screen in Settings. You have to go in the Settings app, scroll way down to a given browser, and then you can change the default. So the default browser setting is weirdly treated as an app-specific setting rather than a system setting.

- If Safari is not the default, you can change your default browser within "Settings.app >> Safari". If Safari is the default, you can't change your default browser there at all. Whereas the default browser selection menu will always be shown in the Settings.app submenu of third-party browsers.
Honestly I feel like they should work first on API compatibility with NodeJS just so that it can be easier to adopt/migrate seamlessly, then try more improvements in the runtime. It's nice that they have performance optimizations but what are they good for when I can't use Deno because it's not compatible/missing APIs?
Wow, that's really cool, could you share it? I would use that all the time.

I am willing to pay for good content, and do, but still often have little choice. E.g. I can't pay for google maps without ads. And no, it's not a reasonable take to suggest I not use any map app.

I also pay for online news, AND STILL GET ADS, so fuck that I block them. It's still the case today that most of the time you do not have an option to pay to get rid of ads, and often when you do it's some ludicrous amount like $10 a month for some blog you might read three times a year.

Part of being able to pay for content is to come up with a fair price for it.

“Sometimes it is unclear what is driving a litigation, and only by reading between the lines of a complaint can one attempt to surmise a plaintiff’s true purpose,” wrote Charles Breyer, the US district judge, in the ruling. “Other times, a complaint is so unabashedly and vociferously about one thing that there can be no mistaking that purpose. This case represents the latter circumstance. This case is about punishing the defendants for their speech.”

I can't help but find this to be extremely infantilizing. The whole point of a democratic society is that we believe that we can educate people rather than relying on some authoritarian dictator to decide the limits of our freedoms. What you appear to be suggesting that your family is too stupid to be educated? Are you sure about that?
Salt is unfortunately (in my two year old experience) full of features and strange bugs related to them - I do remember encountering a bunch of memory leaks master side for example. Deployment had the classic issues of python applications.

I love percentages. 164% up from what, exactly? 164% growth on 100 users isn't that many in sheer numbers terms, a drop in the ocean in the browser segment.

I'm happy to see the change that has hit Android and iOS as a result, and I like that it's drawing attention to other browsers and opening the market more, I just really dislike useless and potentially misleading percentages that suggest things may be dramatically different instead of negligibly so.
Famously Obstinate, Bill Ackman Is Now Real-Life Famous. What Next?
In a nutshell: "In short, I suspect the DOJ doesn’t want to follow in Epic’s footsteps, but they do want to sue Apple, so they framed Apple’s defining characteristic — integration — in the most uncharitable light possible to make their case. To put it another way, the Epic case may have shown that Apple’s policies around the App Store were (mostly) legal, but that didn’t mean they were right; now the DOJ, looking for another point of vulnerability, is trying to make the case that Apple’s right approach in delivering an integrated experience is in fact illegal."
It's funny being a native Spanish speaker, and seeing other Spanish speakers talk about words you have never ever heard of before.
This article is about a failure to do normalization properly and is not really about an issue with Unicode. Regardless what some comments seem to allude to, an Umlaut-ü should always render exactly the same, no matter how it is encoded.

There is, however, a real ü/ü conundrum, regarding ü-Umlaut and ü-diaeresis. The ü's in the words Müll and aigüe should render differently. The dots in the French word are too close to the letter. In printed French material this is usually not the case.

Unfortunately Unicode does not capture the nuance of the semantic difference between an Umlaut and a Tréma or Diaresis.

The Umlaut is a letter in its own right with its own space in the alphabet. An ü-Umlaut can never be replaced by an u alone. This would be just as wrong as replacing a p by a q. Just because they look similar does not mean they are interchangeable. [1]

The Tréma on the other hand, is a modifier that helps with proper pronunciation of letter combinations. It is not a letter in its own right, just additional information. It can sometimes move over other adjacent letters (aiguë=aigüe, both are possible) too.

Some say this should be handled by the rendering system similar to Han-Unification, but I strongly disagree with this. French words are often used in German and vice versa. Currently there is no way to render a German loan word with Umlaut (e.g. führer) properly in French.

[1] The only acceptable replacement for ü-Umlaut is the combination ue.
An argument to danger also works for banning kitchen knives. That something is dangerous is only an argument against it if the danger outweighs the usefulness. Given Apple’s restrictive App Store policies, sideloading on iOS would be very useful indeed, more useful than on Android.

To sideload on iOS via the developer tools you need a Mac, and the builds will expire. So it’s not a viable alternative to sideloading due to the cost and inconvenience.

There are reasons to publish a press release. Maybe you think Bitcoin (and other POW mining) is destroying the environment and you want to shut down the entire ecosystem instead of profiting from it. Maybe you prefer to be famous for an intellectual achievement instead of rich. And if you publicly cracked SHA256, I'm sure you can get a job that pays pretty well working on other projects.

Now, if your goal is maximize wealth, then I don't see a reason to publish a press release.
"I don’t think the developers are wrong, but even if they are wrong, it’s not good for Apple that they’re so unhappy, and feel so aggrieved. It’s not good for Apple that developers don’t see the App Store as a platform that works in their interests. Like the Apple logo, “developer goodwill” has no price tag."

I think many echo this sentiment. What exactly does one get for their 30% tax? Great docs? Awesome development platforms that are integrated with industry-standard CI/CD and revision management? Super responsive Apple devs who publish loads of useful "application notes" every week?

Nope, none of that.

Compagnions and friends?

Maybe when we were nomads and the dogs roamed around freely around the tribe.

But most dogs today are locked in, most of the time and when they get outside, they are on a leash. Totally dependant on their human masters.

I don't think I would describe that relationship as a partnership.

Then there is the concept of breeding them, to establish certain "cute" traits, but cause great pain and misery to the animal:

https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualzucht
(german)

I would argue, the native american tribes, who also did eat their dogs, treated them better overall, than humanity does today on average. So many dogs bred for running around, are lucky today, if they get to walk around outside for more than 20 minutes. This I would call betrayal.

I think you've got some of this in your own reply, but ... I feel like Erlang has gone all in on if async is good, why not make everything async. "Everything" in Erlang is built on top of async messaging passing, or the appearance thereof. Erlang hasn't taken over the world, but I think it's still successful; chat services descended from ejabberd have taken over the world; RabbitMQ seems pretty popular, too. OTOH, the system as a whole only works because Erlang can be effectively preemptive in green threads because of the nature of the language. Another thing to note is that you can build the feeling of synchronous calling by sending a request and immediately waiting for a response, but it's vary hard to go the other way. If you build your RPC system on the basis of synchronous calls, it's going to be painful --- sometimes you want to start many calls and then wait for the responses together, that gets real messy if you have to spawn threads/tasks every time.
Genuinely not, though I can understand that you're cynical. How do you prove intention anyway?

As context with these kind of regulations it's not always bad for the big players when it gets implemented across the market. Many smaller companies will not have the regulatory bandwidth to figure out compliance, and as the regulation acts as a way to level or cap what everyone can do, it's not like you will lose customers to someone else.

Complexity was mostly either definitional, e.g. some markets (ironically Germany's big publishers in particular) were absolutely convinced that almost anything they did on their sites fell under legitimate interest, even though we tried to convince them many times that would not fly.

Or it would be on specifics such as how many non-essential data providers can you reasonably ask a user to review? Keep the number too small and you'll be accused of favoring the big players, make it too big and you'll swamp users. Who decides?

By the way I agree that GDPR is pretty well written. Just that implementing these type of things and getting stakeholders to agree to it can be extremely complex. Fun days

I like saying that it is an S4 - set, setting, substance, and soul.

And the substance (as long as it is a tryptamine) is less important, save for personal preferences. (I have heard a lot about LSD for fun and shrooms for insights - for me, there is no such distinction; if anything, LSD, even in lower doses, produces more profound associations, ones that words cannot capture. At higher doses, well, as you said, the distinction becomes mood.)

At the same time, the soul (overall personality, mind, motivations, desires, approach, will, and goals) is crucial.
