Your emotional support animal in the [airplane|restaurant|movies] causes me stress and anxiety.

Why do your rights supersede mine?
I really enjoyed "Re:ZERO - Starting Life in Another World" despite it scoring -11.5 using your system (Isekai translates to another world)
I looked at the Sunshine / Moonlight combination at one point as I thought something focused on latency would also be great for interactive desktop applications. It turns out though that clipboard synchronization isn't even supported so that was a complete non-starter for me.
Thanks! Yeah I'm kinda hoping it could also become a "collection tracker" for trading cards, art etc. Just dependent on getting an accurate API for it, which is quite hard for things that are illiquid
The problem is, first, many people don't share that attitude towards pets, and second, many places (such as grocery stores and restaurants) find reasons to ban pets that get codified in law, so getting rid of the bans becomes much more difficult.

My 4 year old requires an emotional support parent to travel, but unfortunately that has never gotten me a free ticket.
I liked it. It was fun to watch stuff get smashed and paint explode all over the place. All that stuff gets squished into the iPad. Get it? I got it.
It’s for this reason I have a minstrel that follows me everywhere. There’s really no substitute for the original analog sound - it’s warmness and the subtle imperfections of the original - can’t be substituted with a consumer device manufactured by a soulless megacorp. It does become problematic on flights as the imperialist cryptofascist lackies of capitalism require my minstrel buy a full ticket and doesn’t let her play my tunes on the flight. People at work get pretty irritated and complain about flow and focus and whatnot and keep insisting I submit to the consumerist mediocrity of a sound cancelling headphone - and I’ve tried in honesty to build a portable sound proof booth with an ear trumpet attached but it’s kind of bulky and I’m not really that handy with tools to begin with. It was also really hard to get a badge for the minstrel but eventually HR just gave me a neurodiversity exemption and classified her as a support animal, which in my opinion is kind of sexist but there’s only so many things one can get outraged about. The real issue is that a single instrument is kind of insufficient to fully capture a wider range of sound and experience so I’ve been trying to figure out how to pull off a quartet - really some of the best music is done by a four piece band anyway - but the above problems just seem to get worse but I’m sure I’ll figure out how to scale this solution.
I, like a lot of people, just hated the ad, although I liked it in reverse.

If there's a single product company that hires technologists who also love the arts, it's Apple -- this campaign was just mismanaged by someone who missed the point, and didn't understand Apple's history very well.

Also, apparently, the ipad is really thin, so maybe they got overexcited :)

(Brit living in SF here) Given that this forum is slanted towards America, you have to appreciate that the quality of public transport in London is nothing like what we have here in the US other than New York City.

You're not wrong about London (I never owned a car when I lived there and that was a decade before Uber) but your worldview is skewed. If you look at American history from the last century, in cities like Los Angeles the car companies actually bought public transport railways and dismantled them in order to promote a car culture. And this is what we have.

> In Milan, in 2008, his bill at a pizzeria included a charge for napkins. “Who eats pizza without using at least one napkin?” he asked, but was summarily told that the restaurant incurs a cost to provide linens. “I’m still not sure why I wasn’t charged for sitting on a chair or using my utensils to eat my food, since these items also require costs to maintain,” he said, only half jokingly.

> Two years later, in Florence, he actually was charged for the chair he was sitting in, or more specifically, the orientation of his chair. “My chair faced the piazza and, apparently, only a limited number of chairs had that view.” Even though he and his dining companion ordered more or less the same dish, Britton’s tab was a couple Euros more. He recalled: “The owners felt that it was necessary to charge more for the ‘exclusive’ experience.”

Without state control you cannot really have communism because poeple tend to develop their own markets then and it turns into libertarianism.
You either support countries' right to self-determination or you don't. What happened in Ukraine and Georgia since 2008 is the equivalent of the United States repeatedly overthrowing democratically elected governments in Canada and Mexico, invading their provinces, then acting all surprised when citizens of those countries no longer want anything to do with the US and getting aggrieved about their "sphere of influence" and "buffer zone" shrinking. You can't maintain a "sphere of influence" if you antagonize all the countries in it.

You might notice that a lot of things happened in Russia internally since 2008 that indicate it's not a healthy society. While Putin is definitely the animus behind much of that and is fabulously, perhaps singularly evil, fundamentally the problem is people believing this "sphere of influence" crap instead of accepting countries' right to free association, territorial integrity and self-determination.
Not so funny for Japan considering that immigration is the only way they can handle their rapidly aging population.

I hope they can get their decade old humanoid robot research fast enough to production, otherwise i really don't see how they can provide for their population while having to care for 35% to 40% of the population that is over 64.

And since it does not look like it, the realization that migrants are not sub humans and actually quite value will hit hard.

Like I said - if you can't see why they dropped the ball on the advertisement then that falls on your own ability to interpret.

To your question - they literally used crush and destroy as their message.

Unforced error on Apples part plain and simple.
It wasn't directly borrowed from any other language (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40317577) but there's definitely something nice about the syntax that causes multiple languages to use it.

This stuck out to me, and might be a place where our intuition breaks down. As a human if you tell me, "give me a polynomial with degree n with coefficients drawn uniformly from [-1, 1]," I will likely produce one with a lot of zero coefficients, just because a lot of the polynomials you encounter in the wild have a lot of zero coefficients.

In reality, if you grab a coefficient uniformly from [-1,1], the probability that it is 0 is 0.
Running what operating system?
Yes, high-level descriptions of the RH are often vague about the connection between the zeta function and the prime numbers, but the short version is that, for every point on on the complex plane, there is an associated real-valued "Riemann harmonic function"; if you sum up the Riemann harmonic functions of the non-trivial zeros of the zeta function, you get the exact prime-counting step function, and this function is much more predictable if the RH is true.
> And I quoted an ICJ ruling that said "at least some of the acts alleged by South Africa appear to fall under the provisions of the Genocide Convention"

As I re-read this, I struggle to understand what this means; everything done during war time falls under the provisions of the Genocide Convention, that doesn't mean that genocide is happening, but rather again, that it's a war and people are being killed. Its kinda like calling an airstrike against a military target "premediated murder in the first degree" or calling all soldiers who have killed the enemy serial killers.

If you squint and remove all context the labels apply but they're meaningless under our current understanding of those words.

> I also never claimed that risk of losing your right to be protected from genocide is like getting your Nintendo Switch stolen, it was just a pointer for you to think about what it actually would mean.

"I never made the comparison, I just made the comparison because I was conducting a social experiment" Ok, I'll let you continue trying to figure out what you mean by that.

If we go back to your original comment, you also made a number of false statements in there:

> Israel is actively blocking delivery of food to the civilian population and has already in one case caused a massacre of people trying to get their hands on basic supplies.

This is totally false. Israel is not actively blocking delivery of food and the case of a massacre can be clearly seen in video to be caused by people trampling each other after attempting to rush at a platoon of soldiers.

> At the same time, a minister in the government is publicly calling for occupying Gaza and "motivating" civilians to "voluntarily" leave.

Would you care to explain what specifically is problematic about saying that terrorists should be encouraged to move their terror activities away from Israel? Or what is problematic about Israel governing an area that they've shown they can govern in a much more democratic and fair way than the currently elected suicidal death cult? Were you upset when the US occupied Germany for 11 years? and continued to have a large presence for the next 30 years?

> But speaking of holes, I guess I discounted the large void between your ears.

Insults are always used by those who know they've lost. Thank you for admitting defeat.

There definitely is such a thing as bad publicity, I wish people would stop using that phrase to make dumb things sound smart. Of all the companies out there, Apple definitely doesn’t want to trade on negative sentiment, it clashes with their overall brand strategy. In particular this iPad Pro launch is riskier than normal, given that it has brand new screen tech and is the thinnest device they’ve ever made, and it’s possible they pulled this commercial to avoid creating associations between this iPad and the act of “crushing” things.

Furthermore I doubt that anyone on HN (except like 2 people who will definitely reply to this comment) who didn’t know about the new iPad Pro before this commericial learned about it from this post.
Hard disagree. It’s inherently true that I can’t work on remote servers and all those things but VCS are not inherently remote. I have entire local hobby projects I’ve never git pushed anywhere because my local copy is authoritative. We as an industry largely moved off centralized VCS because of those advantages of having 100% functionality on an airplane.
They're Yorkshire Puddings ;)
From the conversation I’m having in another thread it doesn’t seem like the “waste” concept is the main power driving why this ad left a bad taste.
Bring up any other example of waste for visuals and all the other wasteful activities are justified “as long as they tell a story” or “create something”.
Seems like this video could’ve been art in any other setting and would’ve been ok, but because it’s Apple or because it’s selling a product, it’s bad.

Everything that is not in “Studio Ghibli” wide angle fairy tale style? A number of external films have imitated it, some of them better than the other.

As a side note, “Studio Ghibli” is also not at all equal to “Hayao Miyazaki”.

Say, “Madoka Magica” is certainly large scale, but in totally different style. “Denno Coil” and “Eizouken” has that sense of adventure you can't really describe. And “Drifting Home” is magical, nostalgic, and colourful in its own manner.

I you need some “respected opinion”, here's a list:

It's… okay. Everyone — for a certain definition of attentive viewers — knows most of those.

It is not wise to limit yourself to movies. As mentioned, animated movie is a big investment that can flop at once, while series can be steered somehow in a different production/financing direction, or can become a good merchandise source. Therefore, a lot of movies are more or less straightforward derivatives of existing hit works which rely on the fan crowd. Those make money for more experimental original works.

> I am quite confident that a skilled musician with an iPad (or, even more obviously, an electric keyboard with a MIDI cable to the iPad) can create music that is indistinguishable from a human playing a piano. The synthesizer will be able to replicate the sound of the best concert grand in the best auditorium, direct to your studio headphones.

Perhaps this is true, but it is entirely limited to replicating a _recording_ of the instrument. An iPad cannot replicate (or even come close to) the sound of a human playing a piano that you hear in person.
Somebody in a thread the other day lamented how almost always X clients are sensitive to network drops. And the suggestion is to use Xpra! (It’s “like tmux”)
Xpra doesn’t forward X though, it is a rootless X server that then forwards everything as compressed bitmaps like VNC. It’s a nice homage to how awful X is even at its one oft purported benefit around here.

X11 network transparency is a pretty poor technology, one can go through each of the “Fallacies of Distributed Computing” document to understand why.
I don't think anyone can say with any certainty, and certainly not with 100%, without actually talking to the people behind the video. Modern CGI is absolutely insane. There is so much in modern movies & TV that goes right past the viewers without any suspicion at all.

The Corridor Crew YouTube channel taught me that CGI is everywhere and I don't have a clue. Highly suggest checking out some of their videos.
At their core, their for commercial/promotional purposes. Ads are inherently meant to drive consumerism, where as art is not.
By it's nature at this state (after the full proving effort is complete), any changes to the main/master branch are inherently "stable" and PRs are only accepted once they reach that state.
They wanted it both ways, to make that point, but also have the striking imagery of those objects being destroyed to get your attention.
> They seem like two different avenues of artistic expression to me

I agree completely, this is the point I was trying to make.

People are treating the iPad and the piano as fundamentally different despite both being tools that are equally as capable of making beautiful music in the hands of a talented musician in my eyes.
When I first read about this API a while back, I thought the same thing. But it's perfect for adding complex controls on top of inputs when you have limited real estate (e.g. clicking on an input with a font name and showing a font picker popover with a preview of the font). This is obviously possible today without this API, but I like that they added something semantic. I regularly have to wade through the ARIA docs to figure out which role/aria- attributes to use.
We joke that I'm the emotional support human for one of our cats due to the way he favors and hangs around me.
JUST in time for me man thank you. I'm going to try it.

Our company has just grown to where it isn't just some engineers and a few sales guys. Now we're trying to keep engineers working efficiently. / accurately, and the support team is ramping up. Making it easy for the sales or support guys to log a good ticket or bug is a never ending challenge. This looks like a great option.

I worked in support for ages and later moved to an engineering role, it's a mountain to climb to get good communication / reproducing things accurately enough for the engineers to really take action effectively.
They have been scoring exoatmospheric interceptions on missiles fired at them from Yemen. What velocity do you think those targets had?
Of all the snippets in the text, why this one? A company funding OSS development because it's working roughly towards a goal they support seems like a great thing?
Yeah. In the author’s words, it’s the pet bans that are a “racket” and a “disguised class system, where anyone rich and savvy enough to engage with the gatekeeping process gets extra rights”.

Ultimately pet bans, in most cases, reduce to a proxy for limiting damage and repair costs. In some cases they reduce to more general liability reduction. In all those cases there is a much more straightforward way to address the intent: insurance. Renter’s insurance, travel insurance, whatever.

The only valid cases for banning pets is “you’d be introducing an allergen into a place shared by people with allergies” or “an existing pet is already present and introducing a new one would cause conflicts with the incumbent pet”.
I feel like you misread his explanation of why it's not fraud as an endorsement for how things work. He doesn't seem to imply support anywhere in his statement.

Aside from that, this law would not eliminate the need to do math. The sales tax would still be added. Despite "the price you see is the price you pay" slogan, it excludes certain government taxes and shipping fees. That exclusion includes sales tax.
Privateers had to be officially sanctioned by a state (e.g. letter of marque). Don't think that plausible deniability was an expected benefit.
That'd work great if people were earnestly considerate and felt like they were part of a community that they understood whose implicit norms they might consider.

You don't need bans for stuff like that if people are attentive and thoughtful. People with pets consider other customers in a shop, shopkeepers consider people who are deeply troubled without the support of their pets, and a locally appropriate and nuanced equilibrium shakes out.

Unfortunately, we've largely allowed that prerequisite sense of community to erode in many people and many social interactions have become a game of Hungry Hungry Hippos, so formal and rigid policies have to take the place of subjective consideration.
Personally, I'd argue that I don't find OO to be desirable in a shell anyway. The future is FP for almost everything.

(This is a really neat tool, great work!)
The hate and complains about the Rundfunkbeitrag was always there, this did not start in 2013 or with the AFD. And the AFD today is very different from the original AFD in 2013, which didn't care about this.
They're not claiming it's problematic because it's influential, just that it's both.
Ultimately, this is Tim Cook. The guy is a control freak, pretty much like Jobs was, but with different views and taste.

I find Tim Cook presence extremely chilling, highly sociopathic vibes.
> The end result is a gatekeeping cargo cult, where you have to go through the (expensive, exhausting) motions of asking someone’s permission, without the process really filtering out good from bad applicants.

I am reminded of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit_of_clergy, which started out as separate courts for clergymen and ended up being a way for folks to escape execution for their first felony. Along the way, there was a whole time period where if one could simply read a passage from the Bible, then one was assumed to be a clergyman — so anyone literate could claim the benefit. Hardly the original intent!
I don't see how this changes much. The ad was imperfect. Apple apologized. Let's move on.
Many of these workers are paid a fair wage. Minimum wage in Seattle is $40k, higher than the median wage in many European countries. With tips they might double that. The biggest beneficiaries and proponents of tipping are the workers themselves, empirically their net wages decline when tipping is not allowed even when wages are increased to offset that.
I can see the author's perspective I think but the argument comes out like a little rant at the world and how things are than any real objection.

Places say no pets, which keeps out 99% of the pets, but then a more responsible or at least more determined 1% came up with a way to excuse their pet presence. They "earn" the ability to take their pet into areas otherwise restricted. Is that a class system? I wouldn't relate the two since it isn't something assigned at birth. However I know I'm woefully ignorant on these matters.

Pets are responsibility. They are entirely dependent on the owner for continued existence. I do not agree with relating them to Adderall prescriptions in any way shape or form.

Or! Can this be related to the viewpoint of "It is better that ten guilty men go free than that one innocent man be convicted." and we just put up with all the bad actors for the good of the people who really need it. Given my bad experiences in medicine I'd side with this argument if nothing else.
>Does anyone think that, what, ChatGPT is going to poop out an entire finished game and we'll release that?

Well if this trajectory continues upwards, it almost certainly will happen in the next decade.

Right now feels like how the 70's-80's felt with the rise of the microprocessor. Tons of promise and implementation ideas, but the tech just wasn't there yet. But sure as hell it came around.
Some kind of end-to-end team encryption would be great, I could generate a local passphrase using 1Password or something and put it in the team vault. Then you wouldn't have access to the request metadata (maybe outside of hostnames?) on your servers. Alternatively, an option to simply download local replays and then a desktop/electron viewing client instead of having to upload them to a server would be great too
Whether buffering is part of POSIX or not is beside the point. Any modern OS you'll find will buffer write calls in one way or the other. Similarly with memory. Linux waits until accesses page faults before reserving any memory pages for you. My point is that various forms of buffering is everywhere and in practice we do rely on it a whole lot.
It's almost certainly mostly CGI but even if it was done with practical props, they are still not "real good objects." They are props. No one crashes real Ferraris in an action movie. You use fakes and empty chassis.
Nice work, looks like you've got some big names using it too, congrats.

I have some feedback on your homepage & messaging.

Initially scrolling the home page I thought it was a tool for viewing customer bug sessions, similar to TrackJS or Sentry.

Reading this post it became clear this is for product managers and/or team members to file bugs. The line "Built for everyone" on the home page threw me off.

I think if you make the distinction that this is an internal tool for teams vs. an external tool for tracking customer issues it might help make this messaging clearer.

I'm not sure of your plans (perhaps you also intend for external users to use it) this was just my first pass impression.

I think this is a great tool. The structured format combined with the information provided by the extension are what make it valuable to me. The last minute feature is also nice as re-creating bugs can be a PITA.

As a dev, I would ideally also want to be able to view stack traces with source maps, but having a consistent structured format combined with the extension data is enough of a value prop to start using it.
