I'm curious how that works. LLVM bitcode backwards/forwards compatibility is quite poor, from what I've heard. Will they fix some bitcode version to transmit, and have translators on the client/server sides? Have a bunch of different toolchain versions on the server side? Force everyone to resubmit with a newer version if they want to do any changes on the server side?

Because those devices cost a lot of money, these events are incredibly rare, the 'cost' to a prison of a successful escape is quite low and prisons have to turn a profit.
So Apple's grand plan is to get better gaming performance to lock people in?

First of all, gamers don't prefer Mac in the first place.

Second games are transient. You play them, and then you mostly forget them as new ones come out. You could jump to a new platform (that would be Windows) and buy new games and it wouldn't be a problem that your old Apple stuff doesn't work in Windows. So that's not much of a lock-in.

Third, if with the custom API they get "3D performance to match other vendors" then that's not a tempting proposition that can lock people in: it's "a match".

If, OTOH, they got performance many times that of other vendors with Metal, then that would be the GOOD kind of lock-in, the one where a platform is so much better that you use that.
Well, to give a german perspective, over here it is considered unfair. To such an extend that tuition is basically free. The thing is we do not think one should indept himself to be able to achieve a degree, nor should he be forced to work to such an extend. I mean i admire you man, but looking carefully around you, you have got to admit that not everyone would be able to do this, would they?

People over here got enraged when the goverment tried to introduce tuition fees of 1000 Euros a year.

I actually think an economy profits if you make it easy for people to achieve an high education, and if you do not monitor them in the nature of the chosen field. And a society where you can do that and still have a normal and fullfilled life and being able to socially contribute to our society, that is the society i want to life in man. And while computer scientist are among the highest earner in germany, i gladly contribute my tax money to a society like this.

I do however realize that cultures a different and another point of view is just as valid as mine. Just wanted to maybe offer another perspective :)

Back before his project was called TempleOS, back when it was LoseThos, I didn't know his state of mind. Ran into some of the more disjoint and horribly worded statements on his sites and had no problems sussing out the wheat from the chaff.

In short, you don't need research to know when someone is off a bit. Our minds are great at pattern matching, but we get /lots/ of false positives. It's up to the higher level bits of our consciousness to figure out which is which. You just need to know what real tolerance and understanding is and fight off the urge to react to things on the surface.

Literally no-one in their right minds are going to write like that and expect to be taken seriously. Outright overt racism like what you claim you see in his posts just doesn't make sense in the contexts of code.
Swift for me is what Python3 should've been. For me as a Python user, this development is huge.

I've been watching for the language to move to instead of Python3. Of Rust, Go, Swift and other new languages, Swift always seemed to me the most appealing language.

Being the 1st class citizen on iOS makes learning this for serverside development very appealing. An ideal server language that enables single language client-server applications possible with iOS.

Once the popular libraries start to drop Python2 support (which may take decades, who knows), this is a no brainer as the language to migrate to instead of moving to the much less robust Python3 ecosystem.

For me personally, I've lurked here for 6 years or so. The main reason is there's a community intersection here of techies and entrepreneurs that I can't find anywhere else. And when I say techies, I mean hardcore techies who like building stuff and are good at it. Reddit ends up being quite juvenile and the signal to noise is typically low.

Don't get me wrong on Reddit. I'm a member and love reading it. But there's times I want serious and times I want jokey.

So, the killer reason people are here are because of the other people that are here. Which is the reason you can't just replicate this by building a clone with better software.

Often times I find the comments about articles here more illuminating than the articles themselves and that speaks to the quality of visitors.
It's just jargon. Sometimes in CS/IT discussions I will switch off the part of my brain that parses IT jargon and acronyms. It becomes utter gibberish.

What really gets to me about all this is that I probably see more articles about losethos/TempleOS than I do about the BSDs.

There's a whole world of hundreds of small and innovative hobbyist/niche OSes (Sortix to name just one), but we only ever hear about this one. Again and again, over and over, because the author's mental health makes for good clickbait articles for people to gawk and stare at, apparently. It's really quite sickening.

I'm okay with this article though, I like that it presented something new for a change.

> Anyways, I am really interested in checking out Dune now. I heard the first book is fantastic, but almost unreadable because Frank's writing style was atrocious and it got better over the years ... is this true?

I only read the translation (and almost a decade ago) so I won't comment on the style but the plot line still stands on its own as well as the characters, the themes and the ambiance.

I don't remember improvements regarding style over time I'd chalk it up to the translation.

"The term "disintermediation" was used as a label for what happened to you if you let someone else capture your customer's attention and just treat you like a supplier."

Banks, along with selling their own products, act as middlemen to sell other types of product (e.g. insurance). The only disintermediation I can think of in relation to retail banks, is the move for people to buy things like insurance from (i) web sites, who may kick back some of the commission that would otherwise go to the bank, or (ii) insurers who sell direct through their own channels.

What you describe is intermediation or reintermediation: http://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/reintermediation.asp

I absolutely don't understand why you got downvoted because i absolutely feel the same. Apple has a proven record of not understanding anything related to the web, and having product and technology issues with anything related to it.

Just yesterday evening, you couldn't add an app on itunesconnect because of some angularjs error ( which they apparently used to refactor their site), and you could trace the debug log on the console, and follow the link on angularjs documentation ( a "bindonce" directive not included error).
They just added generics to Obj-C, which is one of the biggest new language features in a long time.
My problem is not the 'radio' part. My problem is that it's a single, 24/7 station, and that they made such a huge deal out of it. The radio concept in itself is indeed very nice, and still very popular (in various forms).

All the examples you name either adapt to your tastes, or offer different 'channels' for different genres. I do see the appeal of that. In fact, I love discovery, and human-powered discovery can be amazing.

The thing that doesn't make sense is that it's 1) a single station, and 2) in no way adjusted to the time and tastes of particular locations.

Why would anyone want to listen to that with exactly the kinds of alternatives you name, on top of the fact that a countless amount of more specific stations can be listened to online?

To make a comparison: imagine if Apple released a new Apple TV and then spent a big chunk of time promoting their single, world-wide channel.

Do you know any people who put on the tv and watch whatever comes on nowadays, without switching channels a few times? And if so, do those people do this because they prefer it over, say, Popcorn Time or Netflix, or just because they're used to doing so, and probably pretty old?

Again, releasing such a 24/7 channel in itself is a nice idea. It just seems really odd to put such an emphasis on it.
Or possibly the increase could come from applauding when the announcements were made.
Minor nitpick. BEAM doesn't have pattern matching built-in. Core Erlang does. Core Erlang compiles to BEAM bytecode with functions using regular if-statements. So basically: Erlang/Elixir -> Core Erlang -> BEAM. (Actually, I think there is one more step there).
Both .NET Native and this (bitcode) are an AOT compilation toolchain.
You don't want to type URLs, especially on mobile, but the fact that all the items on the home page of HN are links to web pages and not to screens inside apps should hint to a definitive advantage of the web over apps. And to why having a web site is mandatory and having an app is optional.

If the web and apps where in the same competition I'd say the Web can't lose, but I don't believe they compete. They serve different purposes with some overlaps (think Google Docs, the web site and the apps).

If you write Go code, you will realize you will actually not hit that problem often at all.

Right now the annoyance I hit more often is the inability to map a []Foo on an attribute .Name (string) to get a []string. I do that in ruby all the time, and with Golang it really sucks to do a for loop to collect stuff appending to a new array.

people.map(&:name) => ["Joe", "John"]

vs

a := make([]string, 0)
for _, p := range people {
a = append(a, p.Name)

>Nothing stops storytellers of today from releasing their works as creative commons or public domain.

Yeah, nothing except no studio would touch those works if you tell them you want to put them out as public domain / CC, much less fund them (so visually they wont be able to compete in the first place).

Besides, movie theaters have distrubution deals with those same studios and distributions companies, and as they wont be taking those movies, theaters wont get them either.

>And nothing stops the public from taking up these public domain works instead of the for-profit products released in movie theaters or in print.

Yeah, nothing except of actual non availability at a movie theater near them, or (especially for web based distribution) the relative power of hundrends of millions of advertising and marketing vs the obscurity of some new indie movie.

I am hoping for some way to start app when there is something coming from the push service.

As it is now, the apple push service alerts Signal that there is a new message, but you have to manually start signal and wait for the download.

going with Vim because it is on servers everywhere

No it really isn't. At best you can probably rely on vi being on most *nix servers, but vi is not vim. So if that is your reasoning make sure you learn vi and not (only) vim.

Also if you are in a position where you might be dropped into some older and more obscure environments, make sure you have at least a working knowledge of ed.

A sidechain can be made to pay out bitcoin rewards to its miners, but it needs to get the coins from somewhere, as it can't generate them from thin air like the main blockchain. For example, it could get the coins from transaction fees, or demurrage (interest paid from everyone holding coins).

This is arguably a better incentive than altcoin mining since miners would be paid in real bitcoins.
