> Apple's guidelines are meant to be broken anyway. Bloomberg's app (Bloomberg Professional) is unusable without an account, which is 100% against iOS guidelines

Any app whose purpose is to allow users to access subscription content works this way.

Netflix would be another common example of an app that is used to access subscription content and is not useful without an account.

If your app is free, but a subscription to your content is not, the most common practice is to not allow users to pay the subscription fee through your app at all. If users can't pay through your app, then Apple doesn't get a dime.
Sublime Text (https://www.sublimetext.com) has been my goto for years.

In my experience, it is very lightweight, opens large files quickly, and the multi-cursor support is second to none.

I often use it "between" apps, meaning I use it to inspect and massage texts before pasting it somewhere else (e.g., logs from Grafana to JIRA, etc.).

With a few customizations and a few "Packages", it can even function as a (very) basic IDE. These days, it is my primary golang IDE.

However in this case with Gainax, the failure isn't due to anime production committee style accounting or anything like that. It's entirely because gainax hemorrhaged all their talent to offshoot studios and then gainax has done effectively nothing other than contract work out and milk IP in the ~15-20 years since then.
> As a wise man once said - the good of the many outweigh the needs of the few

Ah utilitarianism - much like communism, it's a good idea in theory, but bad in practice.

Here in Canada, the young are about to vote conservative(1) over the alternatives for the first time in 40 years for one simple reason: because the entire housing market, either to own or rent, has become completely unaffordable (1 bedrooms in the greater Toronto area rarely go for less than $2500). My first apartment alone in the central part of the city 20 years ago was $700 for a decent one, and starving artists/students/etc could find lesser ones for a lot less.

The home ownership rate by age 30 has gone from well over 50% in 2000 to 36.5% today. The needs of the few are becoming the needs of the majority and they're not in a good mood electorally.

Also, Switzerland has a home ownership rate of barely 40% (in fact if you own a home, you can get taxed on the potential rental income it COULD provide whether you derive said income or not); the result is the Swiss are more mobile for jobs and have more of their wealth tied to other assets and is one of the per capita wealthiest larger economies in the world.

(1) This is not meant to be a pro/anti-conservative statement, merely a point on the sea-change of what can happen when you "protect" the wealth of one group to the detriment of others.

> The original poster is correct

Seemingly not, else we'd have seen the math already. Also,

1. Not having savings (in the personal finance sense) does not mean one is living paycheque to paycheque.

2. The article you link to defines living paycheck to paycheck as a scenario where the family income does not cover expenses. Principal repayment is not an expense. Outside of the 1-2% with interest-only mortgages, anyone who is paying a mortgage cannot be living paycheck to paycheck under the definition you have given. They must have surpluses over and above expenses in order to do so.

Again, the math does seem to work in that sense if you include children. But is there some reason we should be aware of newborns not making enough money to save?

I do a lot of walking and hiking, and I’ve taken to bringing a good sized stuff sack attached to my belt to just toss whatever trash I come across until I have no room. Might start bringing a trash grabber, too. Littering is extraordinarily offensive to me, but for too long I adopted a “I didn’t do it so I shouldn’t have to be the one that picks it up” attitude. I can either be impotently angry and indignant at the problem, which does nothing to solve it, or just put in a little extra effort and be a force of change. I implore everyone to do just a little bit to leave a place better than you found it. The culmination of a lot of small acts done consistently can have surprising results.
Nuclear bombs aren't the only technology that made ww2 so bad. Pretty much every technology has been used for harm one way in another. The question is on balance whether we are better off with or without.

Texas wasn't that close to me (I was in Illinois), but the server was hosted within a data center, and had pretty low latency for me anyway.

Also it was very consistently up and low latency compared to other servers, so that's why I kept going there at first. Later on I kept showing up because I got to know people on the server.

This needs to capture the backspace key so it doesn't send you back a page. Wordle used to have this problem. In the meantime, opening this in a fresh tab should help.
You've been able to file online for decades. You could either fill out the digital forms manually, doing all the calculations yourself (this is what I do, personally); or, you could pay a private tax prep company to use their user-friendly tax prep software that will ask relevant questions and do the math for you.

What's new here is the IRS providing the user-friendly tax prep software, at no cost to the user. It's still "in beta" (so to speak) though, so it doesn't yet support many tax situations.
> Rising home values are a zero-sum game. It makes people look wealthier on paper

I had a thought the other day and HN seems like a good place to ask. And I understand this idea is just straight up out there but I am honestly asking.

What would/might happen if we put a freeze on home prices? Assuming a magic wand could be waved.
So often I see people sharing something that seems driven mostly by the availability of some domain, instead of being idea first, then domain. I find that an interesting niche of human history.

Honestly I'm super excited for this. An important detail of note is that Studio Khara will be responsible for selling off and distributing IP to interested parties. Realistically most of these properties will go to Khara themself, Trigger, and studios like SHAFT that worked closely with gainax in the early days.

So if anything this is how many of those beloved projects will get out from under Gainax's death grip and get something new other than a pachinko machine.
I went from zero to filed in 11 minutes on the federal side. Amazingly fast.

For the state side it's a little more complex (because of Events), but essentially the flow is to wait for the IRS to accept the Direct File first (which took only 2 minutes). Which also meant - holy hell, the IRS has already signed off on my tax return, basically, which kicks off the refund flow. Once that happened, I was invited to continue the data transfer and approve an IRS Oauth-esque flow to send data onwards to FileMyStateTaxes.

I assume now that I fixed the snags this time around next year the state side should also only take about 10 more minutes.
Are you accusing someone (who?) of falsifying data? Where/when/why/who/how?

It's not like the indicators are in some confusing disagreement. Everything points toward the economy being ridiculously hot.

Of course there's one glaring exception: the people's vibes. Of course, vibes are highly malleable by media, culture, and internet commentators ambiguously gesturing toward the a gargantuan fraud with tens of thousands of individuals quietly acting in concert.
I'm not going to engage with you because you are clearly being disingenuous. The "deal" that NATO represents is not spending, and GDP targets are at best a line in the sand of a proxy variable regarding readiness.

DNA is just a "program", and a living cell is basically an advanced programmable nanorobot. When cells divide or reproduce, the whole nanorobot is cloned with some modifications. The DNA tells how to modify the cloned nanorobot, and it is also possible to reprogram any cell back to the original state. Nobody knows how to make a cell i.e the nanorobot from stratch. The information is not in the DNA, like a computer program doesn't contain the instructions to build a computer.

To be honest I don't remember what the exact status is; it should work because I have a large TOML file with all my comments. But I don't recall if there's anything "TODO" or if I just forgot to publish it.

There are two economies. People who got on the housing ladder before the rate increases after the huge jump in home prices and everybody else. The first group is doing great, the other group is screwed. Once again we've pulled the ladder on young people.
Social security isn't ending in 10-15 years, it just won't be able to pay 100% of promised benefits, only about 80%. In reality, sometime in the next 10 years there will be new legislation to fix it, which will probably result in increasing the retirement age (resulting in a small cut in benefits), higher SS taxes particularly on high earners, and other formula tweaks.
Sublime Text is my preference for ye old text files, wayward JSONs, yaml stuff, etc. It's light and fast with basic syntax highlighting. It's not an IDE and doesn't have great code following or refactoring, but for anything complex I just open up Jetbrains anyway.
> I can tweak my Debian all day long but it won't ever run Rufus

Why do you need to run Rufus instead of using dd or mkisofs?

> if I baby Debian and focus on particular workflows, I can set up a workflow for what I want-aka a writing environment or my golang environment but it lacks the robustness of jumping between applications seemlessly like Windows has

This sounds like something solvable by switching to a different desktop environment or using a window manager with more configurable options

> Debian however won't allow me to run windows apps, will have driver issues (like my completely incompatible-still audio drivers for a laptop from 2008)

Perhaps this is a Debian-specific issue because of restricting non-free repos by default and other less principally stanced distros wouldn't suffer from that issue? Also many Windows apps that don't even run on Windows anymore will run perfectly fine under Linux with Wine or other compatibility layers.
> Speaking generally, not to you specifically, it seems like a ton of people see the problems created by capitalism and decide the solution is even more capitalism.

"Capitalism" is a descriptive model, not an entity with causal agency. Everything boils down to the intentions and actions of the human beings involved, and those do not change by paying lip service to a different body of abstract dogma.

To the extent that "capitalism" accurately describes the structural incentives and constraints inherent in the reality that these problems are manifesting in, then there is nothing other than "even more capitalism" on the table as a solution.

Problems can only be solved from within the world that generates them -- there is no "outside", as devotees of various dogmas often mistakenly think.

The Pinebooks are pretty neat and affordable bits of kit. I got the original Pinebook, and it came with a free upgrade from whichever display they originally said to a full 1080 resolution display. The limiting factor for the original is likely the single gigabyte of memory, but so long as I'm not running a popular browser, it's quick and the battery lasts forever (well, for easily more than six hours of constant use).

The article points out that there's good support in NetBSD for the hardware, which is good to know. Between the article and my own experience with various PINE64 hardware, aside from wifi (which is the bane of all open source OSes, apparently), everything works well, and PINE64 comes across as quite open and welcoming to all open source OSes, not just the popular ones. If I need a laptop with more memory, I'd definitely get a Pinebook Pro.

Hidden fees remove any consumer-side pressure on credit cards to lower their costs.

It also creates perverse incentives for cards to pass part of the merchant fees back to the consumer as rewards or even cash. Here in the US, 2-3% cash back is typical, driving consumers to prefer credit over other payment methods.

Meanwhile, merchants are forced to bake the fees into the retail price, causing the paradox that those who pay upfront end up spending more for the same goods.
Don't use Snap or Flatpak then? I don't understand the point of shaming someone for choosing a different Linux distro from you. The anti-Linux people are still pointing out wifi driver issues that were resolved 15 years ago. Here, we have a project from a historically very pro macOS developer helping onboard folks to a Linux distro, and that's still not good enough either because it's not the right distro.

I've been using a Linux desktop since 1998 and while other distros have their benefits, I choose to use Ubuntu Desktop for a whole host of reasons. This bloat is a non-issue (granted, I'm not running on a netbook). If I were to help someone switch to Linux, it'd definitely be either on Ubuntu Desktop or Linux Mint.

Then simply go to the Excel to SQL tab (https://sqlgenerator.io/#/sql-converter/excel-to-sql) and press upload file. It will generate SQL CREATE TABLE and INSERT INTO TABLE statements for you. You can then download it as a file or simply copy and paste it into your query editor.

Additionally, if you want to make any changes like including only certain columns or changing column types/names you can do that via the inputs below the generated SQL. Any changes you make are immediately reflected in the SQL generated.
Aw shit. This is the kind of headline you see right before everything goes to hell.
Further, any traffic that doesn't fit the statistical properties of most other users is going to be an easy outlier to spot, and VPN users will tend to cluster with each other. E.g., if there's no traffic to any search engine or social media then VPN use is statistically more likely (or it's a point of sale device, etc.)
> cannot imagine what a "generational leap" in LLM technology would look like

Well, if it encodes a world model, and can work on its own encoding, loop it into a critical revision of its contents and you have the Real Thing - something that is informed and reasons.
I'm someone that used both BERT and GPT-2 5 years ago, and am incredibly disappointed by how little progress the industry has made in that time. GPT-J and GPT-NEO are still arguably competitive with the latest AI models you can use today; that's sad.

Cryptocurrency apologists also used this line of logic. "Yes, today the value of crypto is nothing... but imagine where it will be in five years!" Then we all wait 5 years, and cryptocurrency is still the victim of it's own mindset. Like cryptocurrency, I think LLMs have "technically" solved what they set out to do; generate readable text. But you need more than a solution in search of a problem; there isn't really that much demand for marginally truthful text in the same way completely decentralized currency isn't really necessary for the average well-meaning civilian. I'd even go further and argue that introducing AI into our daily lives requires you to replace something else, something that was probably more accurate and better-designed than the AI replacing it.

If 5 years is a "blink of an eye" for the industry, the entire field will be dead within 18 months. VC just moves that fast.
R/AskReddit has prompt posts that seem to tap into people’s opinions about current events and how people feel about various things. My best guess is that it’s LLM trainers tapping into the oblivious masses.
The good news is that we eventually decided (mostly) that the solution to that "disorder" was not to try to fix the individual, but to fix the society around them.

Many autistic advocates are, in fact, advocating for improving society such that autism is no longer a major barrier to success. Until we have that, autistic people often require medical care.

It is perhaps important to also note the recent pushback against autism's equivalence of conversion therapy (ABA).
