If you’re thinking of flying internationally to attend WWDC if you get a golden ticket (or any other US conference):
Please reconsider. Don’t come.
You can protest this administration by not coming and not spending your tourist dollars here
And don’t forget it’s just not safe to travel here.
@mkbhd Does framerate or resolution have a well-defined meaning for analog sensors being observed by a non-frame-based observer?
The fact that we observe things through saccades over a relatively long period of time, means we would definitely have highly variable rates / resolutions depending on if you’re measuring your around the focal point or not, or what your definition of the full frame is.
A few ideas:
Outlaw gerrymandering
Election Day is a national holiday
Mandate public funding for all national campaigns and/or overturn Citizens United
Remove the electoral college
Term limits for judges
Reinstate the voting rights act
That should do it, thought I suspect that addressing gerrymandering and the electoral college would get us most of the way there.
@drahardja
urgently, overturn Citizens United
Then enshrine TERMS and AGE LIMITS for any and every elected or directly vetted public office.
Erase presidential pardon powers.
It'd be a good start.

I’m waiting for all the car horns to start honking around me. What a glorious day that would be.
Decided to launch a daily Silicon Valley TV show quote of the day. Today’s selection for absolutely no particular reason:
“Well, that’s the thing about the NDA, is that the NDA is actually covered under the NDA. So if I told you about the NDA, it would’ve been a violation of the NDA.”
I think it's good to remember that part of how states got their militaries to buy into the concept of war crimes is that most of international law of war really covers stuff that the smart military guys realized is often really dumb to do, like it's not actually super likely to help you win a war and it's very likely to make you lose any chance for peace.
Stuff like having to rescue stranded sailors if reasonably safe to do so or it being a crime to declare no quarter isn't because all of the guys who waged the world wars were pussies or whatever, it's because there's no military advantage to a bunch of sailors drowning and if you tell your enemy you'll kill them for surrendering they have every reason to fight to the last. The basic premise of the Trump administration that the US simply isn't brutal enough to be effective is objectively quite stupid.
Just one trans woman's opinion, but I hold that the ideal way to recover from accidentally misgendering a person and being called out is to simply repeat the sentence, corrected. No apologies (or just a quick "sorry" or "pardon" if it flows), no justifications. It happens. We get it. Nobody's looking to shame anyone, only correct a mistake before it perpetuates.
A: "And then he told me that he wanted to..."
B: "They"
A: "And then they told me that they wanted to meet me at this coffee shop..."
@nicklockwood farming reputation for their army of fake accounts.
If this account *only* commented on apps they got paid to review, it would get detected faster.
So make all the fake accounts review random other apps, and then when they flood the page of a specific app, they stand out less.
