Apple's Assault on Standards

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-10-19 18:55:37

Apple's Assault on Standards Will we notice? And what can be done? TL;DR: Market competition underlies the enterprise of standards. It creates the only functional test of designs and functions as a pressure release valve that enables standards-based ecosystems route around single-vendor damage. Without competition, standards bodies have no purpose, and neither they, nor the ecosystems they support, can retain relevance. Apple has poisoned the well through a monopoly on influence which it has pa

Drew Barrymore Wants To Remake Cult Horror Comedy ‘Death Becomes Her’ With Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston

gizmodo.com Isaiah Colbert 2025-10-22 03:59:53

Hollywood remakes—be they sequels or reboots—are so extremely in vogue that they verge on being among the only movies that seem to get made these days. So it makes sense that Drew Barrymore is soft-pitching a remake of the 1992 cult classic dark horror comedy film, Death Becomes Her. Speaking on her eponymous talk show, Barrymore said she wants to work with friends Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler to revive a bunch of older films. And chief among them is Back to the Future director Robert Zeme

Corruption and Control: Turkmenistan turned internet censorship into a business

In July 2021, a sudden drop in Tor usage in Turkmenistan called our attention. Tor would come to understand that this marked the beginning of a new era of censorship and restriction in this post-Soviet country. But let's rewind... The Tor Community has long been defending internet freedom, running relays and providing bridges to combat internet censorship. Over the years, the Tor Project has called for action to run more bridges, Snowflake proxies, while we've investigated and adapted our anti

You know what’s wrong with people? They’re too sure of themselves. Better to be wrong and own it than be right with caveats. Hard to build a personal brand out of nuance these days. People are attracted to confidence — however misplaced. But can you blame them? (People, that is) Working in software, the most annoying part of reaching Senior level is having to say “it depends” all the time.

GNU Artanis – A fast web application framework for Scheme

More seriously, Artanis is written using GNU Guile, one of the best implementations of Scheme language. One day, the folks at GNU were discussing what language they would write the GNU website in - and many chose Python. But I found that strange, because the official extension language of GNU is GNU Guile. And I wondered aloud - why not start a brand new project to provide a web framework written with GNU Guile?

What Is the Magnetic Constant, and Why Does It Matter?

This means these three values can’t be independent; if you know two of them, you can derive the third. How do physicists deal with this? We define the speed of light as exactly 299,792,458 meters per second. (How do we know it’s exact? Because we define a meter as the distance light travels in 1/299,792,458 of a second.) Then we measure the magnetic constant (μ 0 ) and use that value along with the speed of light to calculate the electric constant (ε 0 ). Maybe that seems like cheating, but to

‘Star Trek: Strange New Worlds’ Did a Documentary Episode That Should’ve Been Killed in the Edit

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is, at this point, very clearly a series that is unafraid to dabble in its format on a regular basis. That can lead to episodes of Star Trek that don’t necessarily look or feel like what we expect of Star Trek, even if they still play with ideas and approaches that fit into what the franchise has done for generations now. This week’s Strange New Worlds definitely fits into both of those ideas, with an episode in a new format, an in-universe documentary, and an episo
