Apple just released the event line up yesterday for WWDC on June 22, 2020-June 26, 2020 - https://developer.apple.com/wwdc

- Keynote and Platform State of the Union (Day 1) - 100+ Engineering Sessions - All New Developer Forum - 1-on-1 Developer Labs (by Appointment)

If you are looking for someone to watch with on Day 1, i'm hosting a WWDC Watch Party and group get together. More info here: https://wwdcwatch.party.

Thanks Troy!

Saw this at DO marketplace - bitwarden. Anyone else uses this?

Seems to be an alternative for LastPass and has a way to share encrypted files.

@coding-columbo and facorreia

Checking out keybase, it seems to be like an encrypted slack instead of a file sharing platform.

Is there a way to just access their secure platform sharing without getting inside the chatroom?

Totally agree. I like the old gmail UI. It's more cleaner and easier to navigate.

The new gmail UI is so cluttered. Full of unnecessary stuff. Hope they bring back the option to revert back to classic UI. Mine is missing already.

Thanks Bill :)

Hi Hluio, it's possible that the chair you are using is not ergonomically designed for your built.

Suggestions:

1. Find a right chair for you - a wrong chair can impede blood flow or when your sitting, it is actually pressing too much on your Sciatica Nerve. When you pressed on your Sciatica Nerve for a long time, you generate that tingling sensation that you are mentioning.

2. Stand up every hour (Use Apple Watch Reminder or anything that reminds you to stand up every hour) - this has the same concept of you sitting in a plane for a very long time. The circulation of blood is either being impede by your sitting position or it is not circulating properly due to sitting. As some would suggest, pump your feet, pump the blood from your foot up.

3. Use a standing desk

4. Ask for a recommendation of a Physical Therapist or go to a Doctor that specializes in Rehab Medicine. They know what to do. :)

Thank you for your service Parse. I'll me

Ok let me correct that. I thought you were just trolling. But you're really a parasite.

As defined: a person who habitually relies on or exploits others and gives nothing in return.

It's ok to use free services, to abuse them, especially if you are not capable of paying. It's understandable. A lot of people do that. But to be honest in saying that you don't really care about the company failing or if they go bankrupt for whatever reason even if you are an avid user because a new service will pop up that is free. Seems to be morally wrong.

Your reasoning also shows that you don't have your own company or you're not a developer creating or selling softwares. Because if you are, you would be afraid of people like you who will abuse your company the way you are abusing it now. This is just an assumption. I might be wrong.

@devoply, I think the best term to describe akjainaj is a parasite. A parasite is an organism that lives in or on another organism (its host) and benefits by deriving nutrients at the host's expense.

Based from his response here, I think he is just a troll.

Hi LordWinstanley, Christmas and New Year Holiday. There is a parenthesis after my title specifying the holidays included.

Hi! I have created an iMessage Stickers subreddit section. You can post your iMessage Stickers or anything related to iMessage Stickers. Enjoy!

To see quick preview of animation: https://youtu.be/MLs1iGUQGaM Merry Christmas Everybody. :)

Noted. I'll send them an email. Thanks.

So are you suggesting that I create a new account, enabled "show dead" option on that account, in order for me to see it? Thanks :)

To HN Mods, I suggest instead of just auto classifying it as spam. Maybe add a warning to that submission that it was classified as spam and if the user still wants to post it considering it is mark as spam, then it's upto them? Thank you.

Oh, I didn't know that wasn't a new feature. Thanks for clarifying that.

I visited Yiwu last year. It was fun looking around and seeing all of these item. But I imagined it to be lively, yet there were very few people shopping around in the area. I've asked the sellers why. They said it's because most of their clients buy their items online already but before there were a lot of people shopping at Yiwu.

Things to note: For Christmas shoppers, they only sell wholesale (1000 pcs or more depending on the product, 100 pcs if the item is pricey). Most stalls wouldn't sell you anything if you will only buy a few items even if you try to explain you need it as a product sample.

Since it is wholesale, make sure you order it in advance as most of their products are located in different province in China. Some of them have to ship it to Yiwu first and they would advice that your orders will arrive 3-5 days.

If you are just travelling using the train and need to carry all your items, don't buy too much because you have to walk a very long path with very high stairs carrying all of those stuff (No elevator). And you only have 15 mins time to walk from train station to train platform.

Advice: Rent a car from Yiwu to Shanghai for example. It's not that expensive. They also have shipping companies to your country, so you can ship your items to your country. It looks risky because it's not UPS or DHL, but it did arrived at my place so their shipping is ok.

Almost all of the sellers don't know how to speak English. It's a must to have a translator.

Yiwu Hotel prices are very cheap and provides nice accommodation. I love the food in the area and it's cheap too! :)

For me, best and fastest way to travel to Yiwu: Shanghai then take train to Yiwu. :)

It was fun! :)

"But what developers really need is an organization that governs and regulates their profession like other industries have, both Martin and Sourour believe. Currently nothing like that exists although both the Association for Computer Machinery and the IEEE have made a start, with ethics documents and, in some cases, training."

I don't think the solution for this is to have an organization that regulates programmers to make sure a programmer will become ethical. No matter how much ethics you teach someone to become ethical, it is in their own volition to act upon a task that is provided.

What will you do it if a programmer suddenly decides to be unethical or agreed upon doing an unethical task related to work? Remove their license to become programmers? Ban them to use the computers? Put them in jail? Shouldn't the management be responsible for their decisions, too? Why are all the blame here being focus on the programmers? Why don't you teach "Ethics" to those who are pushing the programmers to do such a task? Yes, the programmers have the big decision to do it or not. But regulating them isn't the solution that would make their decisions ethical.

What if the younger generation wanted to code? Will you stop them from learning it because they are not allowed to learn it unless they are in school? Or they are not even allowed to ship code because they don't have a license or it is not under the standards made by the organization?

Remember programmers are people. Same with all the human beings in this world who makes moral decisions on their own. Their beliefs, attitude and principles in life are nurtured based on how they were brought up not because they took an ethics class in College.

If a programmer violated a law because of his actions, then treat them as a person who has violated the law.

Hi blinddev,

Thanks. :)

Hi dynamic99,

If I were you and i'm near YC, I would probably ask YC if there are any spots for volunteers for any specific YCR program. Tell them your reason why you are interested as you have specified above.

If you are lucky enough to have a chance to volunteer, you get an in depth experience on how they are actually doing it. Giving you the opportunity to ask yourself, do you still want to do this after High School?

I found this paragraph on this link: https://jobs.lever.co/ycr/03b226d0-148e-4ecd-a5f0-3e6074251e... "Have ideas to share, but don't want to work on this full time? Email us your thoughts: cities@ycr.org"

You can start contributing your ideas via email, but this is only for Cities Research. I don't know about the others.

Good Luck!!!

I agree. I thought it was another version of http://littlebits.cc/

But upon exploring some works, it seems like writing code but with a tangible object. The User Interface are like the usual toy blocks kids play and they can write code with it.

Interesting move by Google on this.

@devodevo2002, I think we have that now with Swift Playground but it focuses only in Swift and not other programming language.

It's possible that it still runs on iOS 10 beta, but based on their sample templates and what they have used in WWDC16, it's already a fully functional app. Better implementation than Tynker. And it's also a good preview for future coders to use.

If you have tried the Swift Playground, you'd realize even 6-8 years old can actually use it.

I like Apple's initiative but why use a third party application instead of their Swift Playground? It seems more appropriate and based on what's shown on WWDC, it's not that hard to learn.

This is a possible sign that Tynker can be bought by Apple soon to be integrated with Swift Playground.

@randomname2, my title is not implying that Paypal is sexist, rather I find it amusing how one can organize a discussion that doesn't include a side from the other gender to represent that gender if the topic is Gender Equality and Inclusion in the workplace. Therefore, it is the organizers in Paypal and not Paypal at all.

Unless, the intention for this talk is inviting all the women at Paypal to discuss their issues in front of Senior Male Leaders and create an resolution on how to make Paypal more diverse, etc. This discussion make sense why all panelist are male.

Or another scenario that I can see is that they don't have any senior female leaders to represent the women@paypal in this discussion.

Actually, having this kind of discussion shows that Paypal maybe lacking in regards to diversity, gender, etc issues and wants to understand more what the other side needs. Because why would they even discuss it if it is not an issue at all. This shows that Paypal management is listening to their employees by creating a discussion between Senior Management and the employees.

Note: I didn't intend to submit a culture war related content. I submitted this because I find this amusing.
