Yes that's right, they're checked at runtime (with the option to disable the checks if the performance cost is a concern) and failed checks simply throw exceptions.

It is pretty obvious that their use of Apple hardware is forced on them by Apple for this show.

As said in TFA, he could have had a Chromebook on his desk. And for that matter he could have been remoted into a massive server from that Chromebook with a cluster of virtualized GPUs, hosting a dozen editors on a monster backbone. Apple has nothing like that, so instead they have like a NAS connected to a dozen Macs back in the office to host a dozen editors. It's super dodgy, and is a limit, and, as is the point of the article, kind of highlights some serious gaps in Apple's hardware ecosystem.

They're using Avid and Ableton for this show, and then some third party remoting to connect to the Macs. This wasn't really an Apple-first production.

Show HN: ServiceOrca – Discover any service (not limited to local/home services)
Hi HN!

We’re building ServiceOrca — a global platform where users can search, compare, and contact any type of service provider, across any industry.

Unlike Yelp, Angi, or Thumbtack, which focus mostly on local or home-related services (like restaurants or plumbers), ServiceOrca is built for all types of services — from legal to tech, healthcare to consulting — and it works worldwide.

We just launched our pre-launch version, and are onboarding early providers now. The goal is to create a unified, structured, and truly global service marketplace — not limited by location or industry.

Would love your thoughts, feedback, and any ideas on how to make it better!

Thanks
This is an open source version of another game called Cube World, which was basically a scam when it came out. Had only a few of the promised features and didn’t update for years.
That is not really relevant, because you sort of have to say what's true whatever happens to you, as required at the intersection of the duties of a scientist, of a citizen of a republic, and even on the basis of the basic tenants of the country's majority religion. In some sense to live a steady life you have to be resigned to potential misfortunes, even if you do not want them to happen to you.
The "alleged inside job" is pretty clearly clickbait. It could still be a bad leak if that information is for privated accounts as well.
> I would often scratch my head at some decisions, only to later find out it had a really good reason often associated with some high-level incident.

But the equivalent in biology is that we scratch our heads at some clearly suboptimal "design" choices, only to later find out that it evolved gradually from a much simpler system that solved a much simpler problem, sometimes even a different problem.
Same, I pay for all of the usual AI providers and still find myself using Grok multiple times per day.

Fair enough, the government has every right to deport the frog biologist. It’s not illegal for them to do so. Regardless, I think they should not have.

Or maybe people like you just hate authority and will always portray anyone in positions of authority as being corrupt?

Except if it was you in charge, of course?

Like I asked you in a different reply: what's the prevalence rate of these bad behaviors? "Full of people" seems to imply that you think it's a majority? I can confidently state that you cannot back this up with evidence, because it appears the only evidence you have is anecdotal, and likely anecdotes you actively select for in order to feed your confirmation bias.

I'll note that you didn't answer my question, either. Coordinated deflection like this is not a sign that you have a well-formed argument
That's a weird answer, Keynote can shares presentations, and multiple people can work on the same presentation in real-time, either on the macOS/iOS or the web version.

Showing WHERE things are found when you do a search is not a "power-user" feature. It's an essential aspect of what the user is trying to accomplish.

The whole point is that secret hotkeys are design dereliction.
I guess I thought that If an image was generated by these tools, at least in the US, the copyright office did not consider it to have any copyright at all, therefore it was by default public domain?
Huh. At my last company, probably less so presentation collaboration (in my case, less though still some if I were co-presenting) but shared documents with editors and so forth were huge. Better built-in workflows would have been nice ut it worked well enough with a bit of discipline, e.g. once you do a handoff you (mostly) don't make further changes unless you noting a typo or something.
Can’t call a recession until we look back, I cannot imagine consumer spending is going to hold up under this stress. Consumer debt defaults are rapidly rising while prices are going up in anticipation of tariffs. Something is going to break.

Gradual typing has much the same overhead as other kinds of dynamic typing. It's broadly appropriate as part of the interface between separately-developed software components, and not very much otherwise.

As an avid Emacs user, can't but agree :)
Sure, but that's not what I'm talking about. That's not a change that takes 20 minutes, that's a change that takes years.

I'm talking about things like fixing a typo, where it literally takes multiple times the work to write the ticket than to grep for it, fix it, and push a PR.
Hans Niemann almost certainly did not cheat against Carlsen. Carlsen just played that game rather poorly and ragequit the tournament because he's a baby who can't handle losing.

I do think Niemann may have cheated in OTB chess before. But not at the Sinquefield Cup, I just don't see it. And the only evidence is insinuations from a sore loser who's well known for throwing tantrums when he doesn't get his way.

The buttplug stuff was really just a joke from reddit, no one's seriously suggested anyone is actually cheating using a buttplug. Doesn't even make sense as a way of cheating, really. It would be extremely obvious.
Weird Circle on monitor fact fom ChatGPT
Step 1: The Square and the Inscribed Circle
First, imagine a square with side length
2
�
2r, and inside it, you inscribe a circle. The circle touches the midpoints of the square’s sides. Now, this is the largest possible circle that fits perfectly inside the square.

Step 2: Cutting the Corners (Infinite Cuts)
If you start cutting the corners of the square to form a polygon (octagon, decagon, etc.), you’ll get closer and closer to a circle. But no matter how many cuts you make, the shape is still fundamentally bound by the square. So, the perimeter remains tied to the square's boundary.

Step 3: Perimeter to Radius Ratio
As you keep cutting, you might get closer to the circle's smoothness, but the perimeter of the shape you’re approximating will always be a function of the square. For any polygon, the ratio of the perimeter to the radius will approach 4. This relationship doesn’t change with more cuts.

Step 4: Digital Circle
Now, let’s take this idea to your digital screen. The pixels on your screen form a grid, and when you try to draw a circle, it’s just an approximation made of discrete pixel boundaries. The more pixels, the finer the approximation — but it’s still discrete.

This is where it gets crazy: No matter how high the resolution, the ratio of the perimeter of the pixelated circle to its radius (divided by two) will always stabilize at 4. This is because the fundamental shape remains tied to the grid, and it cannot achieve the smoothness of a true circle.
Disagree. To work in call center you need to have accent thats clear enough.

"Has man perhaps become less desirous of a transcendent solution to the riddle of his existence, now that this existence appears more arbitrary, beggarly, and dispensable in the visible order of things? Has the self-belittlement of man, his will to self-belittlement, not progressed irresistibly since Copernicus?"
It’s crazy how much of a mess color management is on Windows, even now. I used to try to use a calibrator-produced profile for my gaming PC’s monitor but keeping it applied was hacky and it still didn’t work everywhere.

I was too. There was a period of great optimism around the web, Google and (in part), Apple. But it was closer to 20 years ago now.

I remember talking to someone from Microsoft around that time. (Who were an enemy of the opensource world at the time). They said the shine would wear off, and everyone would get annoyed and distrustful of Google too. I remember my conscious brain agreeing. But my emotional mind loved Google - we all did. I just couldn’t imagine it.

Well. It’s pretty easy to imagine now.
I would imagine rules are not changing every day in Japan, yet still there are investments slowdown.
I was a pretty intense believer in Christianity at an early age and also stopped believing pretty early. Looking at religion from middle age now, it strikes me that Christianity is not a good religion to not believe in. As soon as I stopped believing in the literal existence of God, I immediately felt uncomfortable with Christianity and had to distance myself from it, even though I was culturally and morally grounded in it. I had to get away, and I never saw any path to reengaging with it in a beneficial way.

I don't think every religion is like that. I think there are approaches to Judaism and Buddhism that you can participate in that don't demand true faith in the "spooky side," as one of my friends puts it. And I don't just mean being ethnically or culturally linked with a religion, I mean actively engaging with it in a regular and organized way. Christianity doesn't offer that, and I don't know if it could or ever will. (I tried the Unitarians.) If it did, I'd probably enjoy being "Christian" again, at least with quote marks. As it is, if I was forced to affiliate myself with an organized religion and participate in weekly ritual services, I'd probably choose my local Zen center or see if my Jewish friends thought it would make sense for me to join them. Going to a Christian church without believing in capital-G God would be unpleasant and unrewarding.
Wut ?

Keynote works just fine with multiple simultaneous users. I work at Apple (for now) and do it all the time with managers/EPMs etc.

IIRC, he didn’t even buy the ticket? At no point was his name used in the transaction, so how exactly did they know this person was at MSG in the first place? The conjecture is facial recognition.
This is yet another deflection. If you cannot do anything other than wave away your lack of evidence, I'm forced to conclude that you actually have no idea what you're talking about.

Tons of people have seen things they can't explain, and are convinced that ghosts and the supernatural exist. Those phenomena are "very real" to those folks, too.

To be clear, I agree that police abusing their power is a "real phenomenon", in the sense that it certainly happens. But until you can provide ample evidence that these behaviors are thing a significant minority of police officers take part in, then your generalizing them to all police officers is just about as "real" as ghosts.
> Even if she's a serial killer, she shouldn't be treated like this.

In that case, especially, she should be treated like this.

> We have laws and procedures for how we treat people

And this is what those laws say. On a visa, the executive can chose to remove you immediately from the country, for any reason. That means Trump, since the election. If you don't leave yourself (that means an immediate one-way flight out), you can get deported. This is not illegal.

> I also don't really care that "well turkey is worse". Why does that matter?

Because
1) she's Turkish
2) she's religious

This very likely means she's an Erdogan supporter and will defend destroying Turkish academia by arresting, disappearing and deporting students and staff. To put it simple: on top of everything else she's Turkish version of a MAGA nutcase. She supports removing university staff and students on a large scale ... and now it happened to her.
The last five administrations have bombed the poorest country on the planet. Now people are being disappeared by police amidst public cheers. Even the mods on this website think the above headline is sensationalized, meanwhile a few months ago they hosted the AMA of an IDF soldier that probably helped murder children. Major parts of society are pacified and numb.

><!ENTITY x ...> and then you use them as &#x; maybe you are familiar with &lt; representing <

Okay. This is syntactically painful, APL or J tier. C++ just uses "&" to indicate a reference. That's a lot of people's issue with XML, you get the syntactic pain of APL with the verbosity pain of Java.

> I have to implement special logic for that (this is built-in to XML). If they implement dates, sometimes it's unix-time, sometimes it's 1000x off from that, sometimes it's a ISO8601-inspired string, and fuck sometimes I just get an HTTP date. And so on.

Special logic is built into every real-world programming scenario ever. It just means the programmer had to diverge from ideal to make something work. Unpleasant but vanilla and common. I don't see how XML magically solved the date issue forever. For example, I could just toss in <date>UNIXtime</date> or <date time=microseconds since 1997>324234234</date> or <datecontainer><measurement units="femtoseconds since 1776"><value>3234234234234</value></measurement></datecontainer>. The argument seems to be "ah yes, but if everyone uses this XML date feature it's solved!" but not so. It's a special case of "if everyone did the same thing, it would be solved". But nobody does the same thing.

> Why not make them right from the beginning?

I don't intend to come off as obtuse here, but this was my original point. Our current understanding suggests this is a design flaw and is "wrong." However, there are plenty of cases where new discoveries have changed our understanding of a system.

So, I'm simply putting forward the question: At what point can we confidently say something is poorly designed? I'm not disagreeing that, based on our current understanding, some systems in the human body seem suboptimal.
You’ve posted one dumb thing after another and pretended like you’ve made a great point after each one. That’s really a special kind of moron who does that. Have a good day.
Well, good thing that wasn’t what I suggested.

Engineers _should_ have leeway in how they resolve issues. As I read, though, you have a company policy which explicitly disallows the action you needed to take to fix the problem (if I misread, my apologies). Getting the stakeholders involved is the responsible thing to do when policies need to be broken.

Ideally, the way this kind of situation gets handled should be documented as part of a break-glass policy, so there’s no ambiguity. If that’s not the case, though, the business should get to decide, alongside the policy maker (e.g.: security), whether that policy should be broken as part of an emergency fix, and how to remediate the policy drift after the crisis.

If you’re all tight enough that you’re allowed to make these kinds of decisions in the heat of the moment, that’s great, but it should be agreed upon, and documented, beforehand.

One of the areas I'd really hoped the US semiconductor investment act passed a few years ago would focus on are the 'jelly bean' chips / components.

By this point those need to be bog standard, RELIABLE TO SOURCE, commodity components. Like screws, staples, washers and semi-processed materials like rock-board, rolls or spools of metal / thread / cloth etc.

There should be more than one manufacturer, and geographic diversity within a country and among allies to mitigate risk factors like natural disasters and (may we never have to worry about it) attacks by enemies.

It's not just the shiny new leading edge and RnD; the full stack needs to be robust and provide competition to keep everything healthy. That's what a regulated market should offer, value from existing players, and when that fails either helping new entrants compete and see success in the market, or standing up a new government business to sell off (recoup investments, though I'd prefer it took profits and _all profits_ were deducted from the citizen tax base) after it's established.
That wasn’t the claim. They just speculated that acquiring one solar company helped in their other solar ventures, which seems like a good default assumption.

The "balling out Europe" stuff again. Their goal is to ultimately normalise the idea that the EU is an enemy in advance of the Greenland invasion. The leaking of clarified information doesn't matter because A) US service personal are expendable and B) the involvement in Yemen is now only to keep up appearances of being allied to Saudi Arabia who will in the long term also get the same treatment as the EU because their fuel output competes with US/Russia.
That's the why, but the implication is that it's possibly not the most efficient way to build the system, and that we can't do better because we're no good at communication.

There may be a silver lining. I think that John Roberts is in the mood to spank, and if Trump comes before him with an expansive interpretation of his plenary powers, Roberts will see him as a convincing counterargument.
