The whole problem with radio is that it completely misses how music is consumed nowadays.

It's no longer driven by the ivory tower of the music industry.

The whole idea of playlists created by others is that it exposes me as a listener to the long tail of music, mostly composed of everything I want to listen and more. I discover new sounds based on the fact that I am now able to find that other person on the other side of the world who shares my taste. I can skip through the songs and get right to the content I want.

I drive my listening experience, versus the radio station.
Should have watched my heart rate this morning (CEST) when I tried to sign an app for enterprise deployment. Nothing was working. Many Apple servers were in maintenance work until before the keynote.
Experiences of an F# user with Rust
Is there a GitHub repository for this? There are non-obvious features that I think it would be very good for it to have.

One of the core problems is that reporters might have their phones confiscated or destroyed, or the reporters might even be killed. The best solution is live uploading, but network infrastructure usually isn't good enough to stream video (especially in crowds where several people might be trying to do it at once). What I think it should do, is use the connectivity it has to live-upload limited information strategically.

First it should upload the location, time, device ID, and a hash of the video recorded so far. This is only a few hundred bytes (could fit in an SMS), and creates a record that video was recorded, which could be used in combination with testimony to support a claim of destruction of evidence. Then it should add, based on the amount of bandwidth available, low-quality audio, higher-quality audio, and selected still frames from the video.
any more books you did find interesting ?
I have to support an elementary school full of Macs, and Yosemite has been my ongoing nightmare. (Well, that and the bad joke known as OS X Server.) I won't update during the year for obvious reasons, but I'm still trying to decide whether or not I'm going to have to fragment my environment again (after just getting it all together with 10.9, finally). The incentive from Apple is very strong to install 10.10, but it just runs like utter garbage on all our older machines. And we can't run out and buy new ones whenever they feel like killing all hardware more than about 3 or 4 years old.

I'm still trying to convince people that our younger kids can learn just fine using the web browser on Windows and that we're overpaying money for these Macs (about double what we'd pay for a comparable Windows machine from our vendors) and wasting our tight budget. But there are a few people who just will not let them go. It's a real PITA running this mixed environment without another person to do sys/net admin stuff, or someone to handle more front-line support.

At this point, I'd take Apple just putting a stop to releasing these updates for iOS and OS X out at the beginning of the school year. It would be so much better if they'd do it about 4 months earlier.

2% is IE on XP, or XP in general?

I wish people would be more clear when they bring up XP. The OS is not the problem.

Yeah I'm in the same situation. My mathematical background is decent but I feel like it is full of gaps and I forgot a lot throughout the years. And yet, not a day goes by without me wondering whether I should start using Coursera to fill those gaps.
Actually I agree that the fingerprint sensor was innovative. I wish my Android phone had one. Siri, on the other hand... eh.

Siri still doesn't seem to be able to do that much of note (though I haven't read through today's announcements) and a straw poll of my iPhone using friends suggests that none of them really use it anyway. I'm the same with the voice functionality on Android, though I do use the cards provided by Google Now a lot.

That's my way too. A single click is always simpler than navigating a task switching interface, so I just have "big window" on left, "mid size window" peeking out at its right edge, and then "little window" - usually textedit - poking through in back. It's like a little sideways pyramid. I can also alt-tab through them super easy. Never found much use for Expose or Mission Control, i consider having to use them an organizational fail state for my process.
I do recruiting and I have an awesome story like this. Back in 2010 I worked at a mobile reading company. I was trying to hire iOS developers. I found an awesome github from a dude who was doing backend C# stuff at MSFT, but was building AWESOME iOS apps at night.

I emailed him and asked if he wanted to do the thing he was clearly passionate about full time.

He aced the interviews, came out and built our app. About a year later one of our founders left to start a new company. The founder recruited this guy. Within 18 months, their company sold for a few hundred million and now instead of writing the C# code he hated, he has now helped build an awesome company, build a whole new skillset and built his leadership skills. Not to mention the fact that his wife and child are basically taken care of for life because of this decision.
There are way more than 12 on their site. It does have Facebook.
It bothers me how the article implies that they were doing something wrong. They figured out a trick to the system and used it to their benefit.
IMO that's the key to their offering. Even with all the ways streaming services offer to discover music they fail miserably. Radio is a good way to discover, they have some top class DJ's on board AND I have a hope that people won't be able to buy their way on to it which means that the DJ's can actually play music they sincerely like.

I think you're thinking of radio in it's current form and that's why you don't like the idea - I wouldn't either. But if the DJ's have completely free reign I can see it being really great.
I should also add that this library eliminates the need for plugins such as this:

This is not one radio station, this is a ton of channels, like SiriusXM and Spotify, which are quite successful. This is also about competing versus Youtube/Google Music in the music discovery business.
Connect is about connecting artist to listeners. Was Ping about that?
I guess you paid no attention to the actual product, which is all and increasing the long tail even to unsigned artists.
Great, that Apple will open source Swift 2. I hope I can use an Win32/64 community port on Windows 7 next year. Go, Rust, Swift, JavaScript and Julia - a really great time. Thinking back a few years, there were no new mainstream languages for about one decade (ca. 2000-2010).
Going from models to reality is basically a process of expanding the model until it accounts for enough that you are confident it will work.

Also, the particular model I use only requires a mean positive utility - even if we take a model like yours, the conclusion is unchanged. Variance simply goes up, but the best option is still not talking to women.
He's saying that in real life the fisherman's job is a bit worse than presented, and the American's a bit better, due to things like healthcare, and financial planning for emergencies and retirement.

And the correct response to that is yes, its a parable, the answer isn't to become a fisherman or necessarily start your business, but to find a good middleground for yourself that keeps the point of the parable in mind.
Nothing stops storytellers of today from releasing their works as creative commons or public domain. 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.

Considering how 10.10 traps machines older than about 3 years in the digital equivalent thereof, they missed their chance.
I remember reading somewhere (I forget where) that making software has the ability to improve change/many lives and that alone makes software development, but especially open source, a useful endeavour.

How great it is then, that now I know who to thank for Evince. So sad that he's not here to receive my thanks.
My claim was a moral one. An entity like a corporation exists to make profit for shareholders and is therefore an amoral, psychopathic entity. Being subject to a corporation is fuctionally no different than being subject to a dictator or a king; it is a morally repugnant condition.
Windows 10 has two "modes." Tablet mode, which is very similar to 8.1, and desktop mode which is a mash up between 8.1 bits and Windows 7 bits (e.g. apps in windows, no full screen Start Screen, etc).

So in answer to your question: If you're in tablet mode then it will still offer that in Windows 10.
Apple only ever got away with this kind of breathless self-pimping because of Jobs. He had a unique panache that infected Apple with a curious energy. It's been really interesting watching Apple move past Steve. In many ways, they're killing it, in others, you can really feel the slow dissipation of Jobs' halo.
It's also what spotify does. On a song, in the menu, choose to start a radio station from that song.

I'm guessing 2.7 but I think we'll need a few months until the preview is available to know for sure.

I said what I said in full and abundant awareness of that fact. And I'm making this reply because that's worth making the point explicitly.

I view it as similarly to how it seems like the programming world is in such fast flux. On the one hand, a Javascript framework comes out every week and you MUST MUST MUST change everything to using it or you're falling behind! On the other hand, I can't help but notice the computer science undergrad curriculum hasn't hardly budged an inch since I took it 1996-2000, nor can I help but notice that for all the sound & fury of web development, 2015-me could pretty much bring 2005-me up to speed in a couple of days. (A smidge of cheat there... 2005-me had actually written a pure-JS widget system that I can't necessarily call "modern", but let's just say that "shadow DOMs" wouldn't exactly blow 2005-me's mind either.) There's a lot of high-frequency churn... there's a lot less fundamental change. Again, not zero. But a lot less. A study of history will even show a lot of modern trends you think are unique in history may not be.

> I don't quite understand why they put so much emphasis on 24/7 radio.

Another thing is that they're lying when they say it's the first global 24/7 live DJ-driven radio station. The BBC's music stations have been broadcasting live and timeshifted online for about 15 years already, unrestricted. I'm sure other broadcasters also do this.
I felt the same way at first in regards to Linux support. But honestly the platforms are similar enough that a Linux fork was probably inevitable once open sourced.

Avoiding this "fracture" could have been a powerful argument for it, along with maintaining control (the nodes iojs situation could not have inspired confidence, though that was not due to interoperability from what I know)
XCode 7 Beta
Would have been a great 5-minute update - "we're adding in direct interactions with artists, and a cool new worldwide radio station DJed by a couple really clued-in people. It's reasonably priced and works with all your existing iTunes stuff. First three months free!!"

But that looong, rambling explanation of every little feature, punctuated by clips from hip-but-safe artists, was entirely too much show for it.
Too little too late. Apple could have got my attention if they had done this from the start, but at this point I find it hard to get excited about this. Half the reason I find myself drawn to a new language is the culture and community surrounding it. You might think this seems silly at first glance, they're programming languages, not fraternities. But hear me out.

Golang is a pragmatic crowd. Go into #go-nuts on freenode, you'll notice that discussion rarely deviates from solving problems. Many links to the go playground. Go, from the beginning, shaped their community in this way. Consciously? Who knows. But the community turned out the way it did and I believe that's a result of their start.

Haskell is a computer scientist crowd. People write in haskell because they enjoy the functional paradigm and haskell is a purely functional language. Discussion on freenode? Very dense. People are expected to grasp topics easily and the community initially gives everyone the benefit of the doubt that they are capable of understanding it until they ask for more help.

When I look at swift, the only thought I have is that it is the new iOS language. I don't believe they'll be able to deviate from that. I don't see myself making iOS apps, so I don't see myself every writing a single line of the language. When I first looked at swift, my impression was that it was a wierd and somewhat-functional language that had a few unique things. Maybe I would have taken an interest in it. But at this point, I don't want to have to wade through a bunch of iOS specific questions to get what I need. I don't want to have to deal with being a beta tester for their linux implementations. I don't want to use the language when I'm probably going to be using it in a vastly different way than the rest of the community is. My interests are going to be second class.

It's not necessarily set in stone, but I think it is. In a world where there's a new language every day, I just don't see why I'd go with swift.

Radio still has to be a wildly popular format, even though I don't listen to it anymore. Otherwise, Sirius/XM wouldn't still be in business, despite having a limited selection of music and terrible sound quality. All those subscribers can't just be there for Howard Stern.

Also, digital music has become extremely popular, just not online radio. That could be an issue of quality (low) compared to selection (high) or just that a lot of people who utilize connected devices for music prefer listening to their music on iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, etc.

By investing in both sides of the fence, on-demand and curated, they can capture both audiences. And by hiring people like Zane Lowe, they are giving people additional reasons to go listen to radio vs. on-demand.
1000 blogs or blog posts? If you meant blog posts, on roughly how many blogs did they appear?
Looks like a mix of Python and Yml just like how QML is a mix of Javascript and Yml
It's not even the entire feature set. For instance, it seems like I can't control different devices with it, which has lately grown to be an essential feature for me — 60% of the time when I have my phone on the charger, I can just yell 'Okay, Google' from across the room, and Spotify will put whatever music I ask it to on my PC's speakers.
Is not so simple in fact. Twins with similar diets can have differences in IQ just by growing in different cities. Between 20 and 40 Ascaris roundworms in the body of a child can lower their IQ to 5-10 points, delay the psychomotor development and end in poor growth until properly treated (IQ is restored them to normal levels). Powerty can mean that people don't have a reliable source of water, or feels fine about eating roadkills because is in their culture (increasing the probability of having roundworms or other parasites from carnivores). A bad Malaria in children can lead to permanent low IQs also.

Any research about this question should check and discuss parasite loads also.

I would kill to be able to go to the party Spotify will undoubtedly throw tonight.

There wasn't one thing in the entire presentation that was even intriguing, let alone in innovative. The reason I loved my iPod is because I didn't have to listen to the radio. And now Apple is making that the killer feature? RADIO? Like it's freaking 2002?

Other than that and artist communication (which I would maybe care about for one artist), Apple Music is Spotify. Their solution for finding what you want to listen to? "I like rock and alternative" (whatever that means). This has been done a dozen times, and rarely well.

Spotify has been iterating exact same concept for years and has all of my friends listening to it, as well as all of my playlists. People tell me Rdio is similar, but I've never had reason to use it. The only way Apple wins is if the power of something being the Apple default is truly that strong. Having Siri integration is literally the only thing that Apple has a leg up on any of the other music services on.

And then they call it "revolutionary" and throw it in a "ONE MORE THING!" slot? That's pretty bad. And I'm an Apple fanboy.
>Sure, Android M is likely to get multi-windows as well when they announce the final version

i remember people saying the same thing last year during the L preview.
I'm guessing they want it to compete on all available platforms, just how Spotify has. Mac, iDevices, Windows and Android is a start.

They'd do well to add a web client and/or a native Linux client to that list, but the aforementioned platforms covers almost all users I'd guess.
Haha, yeah though Sails is also a Rails like framework for JavaScript

It's not from the server logs that I would verify this is a Poisson process; it's from the intuitive understanding that these events occur independently from each other and at a constant, known rate. This process also possesses the necessary properties[1] of a Poisson process.

Sounds like:

1) don't have an upfront contract and agenda when the meeting is setup. OR

2) your "customers" didn't realize the purpose of the meeting was to actually buy. OR

3) you don't know what your customers internal purchasing process is. OR

4) ???

There are so many books written about sales, read a few more.

Sales is harder that tech people believe.

But since you say "from time to time" - that sounds like you are successful in part at closing deals. What is the difference between the meetings that result in a purchase and one that doesn't?
Considering the Music app is probably one of the few that nearly everybody uses and they're completely changing how that works and how they want you to enjoy music it seems like just the right amount of pomp and circumstance.
To play devil's advocate, I can think of two reasons:

1) If you're choosing a payroll provider, Zenefits integration may help you choose ADP because you have a non-awful user experience with Zenefits as a front-end.

2) It could run afoul of antitrust law for tying, monopolizing, or the essential facilities doctrine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aspen_Skiing_Co._v._Aspen_Highl...), if the case could be made that ADP has sufficient market power.
This story (and the math behind it) is discussed at length in "How Not to Be Wrong: The Power of Mathematical Thinking" by Jordan Ellenberg. I highly recommend it, the other stories in it are equally enlightening.
It took this instance of Apple's chronic weasel-word-using habit for you to question it?
You might enjoy "Gangster Capitalism: The United States and the Global Rise of Organized Crime"[1]. It's full of cheerful stories like this. One favourite deals with how a company doctor working for Union Carbide IIRC became aware that workers were suffering from some form of poison/lung damage. Rather than tell the workers, he told the bosses -- they ended up giving the doctor a promotion and keeping the medical situation under wraps, leading to some deaths etc.

I think TouchID was released in 2013 not 2012. The iPhone 5S was the first device to have it and it was released 2013.
Those sound like a 'loss leader' marketing strategy. Whoever operates the machines may lose money consistently, but they bring customers in who otherwise might not be there.
One imagines it'll be liberally licensed like LLVM, which Chris Lattner also BDFLs. And they said it would be the compiler and the runtime for OS X, iOS, and (surprisingly) Linux.
