If you've got nat64 and dns64 setup, you should be ok for most things, but in many environments it's easier to dual stack - do both 4 and 6 on end hosts, rather than setting up nat64.
Surely there is no way that the timing of this wasn't extremely well considered?
Great way to think about this.

Also -- although maybe too obvious to point out -- as you progress through these stages:

- You appeal to different kinds of investors. You may gain financing options (~= the old joke/truth that "banks are happiest to loan you money if you don't really need it").

- You need somewhat different skills from people (especially yourself!). Likewise you might be more attractive to different kinds of candidates.

- Eventually there's a whole other set of risks, as you evolve into a bigger, more mature company with high organizational entropy. :)
To use the function keys on an old MacBook Pro, you have to chord with the "fn" key to override the brightness, volume, etc controls.

To use the functions keys in the touch bar in the new MacBook Pro, you have to chord with the "fn" key as well.

So where is the difference...

Unfortunately many programmers seem not to be sane.
> The thing that is telling for me is that they didn't even look at the 2nd generation thinkpad carbon [...] Apparently Apple is like a child and can only learn from their own mistakes, if at all.

Apple also likes finding things that (they think are) good ideas that other companies executed on poorly, and execute on them better. So yes, they did see the thinkpad adaptive keys, and thought they could make them work. Whether they can remains to be seen, but trying things that other companies did poorly is one of their major business plans.

The House is close and there's a large bloc of non-suicidal Republican congressmen who will vote against impeachment. Even if the motion makes it past the House, the Senate will be Democratic: there is no way it will allow the 2/3 majority required for actual conviction.

That's pretty uncommon to imply it's generalizable. Most vim users, I feel comfortable in saying, actually use 'Esc', or a key mapped to the same. Speaking for myself, I can't see why I'd want to use two keys when one would do.
The reason being the competition against Sun and SGI, as an easy way to bring developers into the system, not to let them out again.

Objective-C frameworks for user space and drivers, use of distributed objects, designing GUI applications via Interface Builder, productivity applications like Lotus Improv and Virtuoso, the way applications were packaged didn't had much to do with UNIX culture as such.

Right, and it's one of the big problems I have with this form of regulation.

I think it violates the idea of "Rule of Law", as opposed to "Rule of Man", which was one of the major factors behind the rise of modern free society.

I love paying with bitcoin, even when other methods are available. It's just so easy, and just knowing no stupid bank can stop the payment or freeze your balance feels like freedom.

If you see "nothing but scams", it only tells me you live in a strange bubble. There are tons of legitimate businesses that use bitcoin daily. There are some that use litecoin, and even dogecoin.
The application renderer and editor are wholly separate, though for this release we don't yet provide an end-user way to access the former separately. With respect to distribution (in the rolling out to users sense), we plan to start working on that story over the next few months. To get there, we need to finalize our policy system (which lets you secure your program against malicious users), improve performance, and get the basis of our horizontal scaling story in place. If you're interested, keep an eye out for posts about the world scale computer milestone on our blog!

- thinks it's OK to require pretty reasonable background checks ala Austin for taxi drivers

- thinks it's OK to have some safety regulations around self driving cars sharing our roads beyond hey, it worked in my car on this specific stretch of road so, you know, yolo

>> Apple forgot where they came from and have completely lost touch with their creative roots.

I get what you're saying, but Apple has evolved. Back then, Apple was a niche company. Now they are a mainstream company, enjoying the profits of their success.

I know it's not pleasant to hear, but they don't need the creatives any more. Or developers. And that's fine. You can always speak out with your wallet. I didn't like the direction they went in and changed to Windows, but I wasn't reliant on any one thing in the Mac ecosystem. I still have no problem recommending Macs to certain types of users though.

Sometimes they get lucky and it works despite something like Uber's or Airbnb's total ignorance of the law. Sometimes it fails like with numerous cryptocurrency companies relearning why the finance industry has so many dang regulations. Seems like comma.ai is falling in the latter camp.

That's even MORE of a reason for the NHTSA to ask these questions. If the first-to-market autopilot system is too dangerous, that will destroy the public's trust in any future autopilot system, no matter how much of a net benefit it provides.

The most critical problem: Hacker News is closed source, right? By any definition that includes Facebook and Twitter, certainly. That'll be a tricky one to let go of.

Personally, it's always drivers etc that I find it difficult to get good open-source options for. Even if you're running Linux the open-source graphics card drivers are pretty terrible, so you take quite a performance hit if you're not prepared to include any proprietary code at all.
During Tim's Pre CEO days, he was known to be a heavy user/lover of spreadsheets[1]. With a special affection of making the cells really small. (could not find the reference for that, but it was another Apple CXO who said it)

I find it hard that a long time spreadsheet person could quit and not get his hands dirty with the numbers.

And if he still gets his hands dirty with the numbers, I would expect it to be hard restricted to an iPad.

Meh, looks like Redlang, Rebol and co. In practice these kind of languages lead to easy to write/hard to read codebases due to the lack of visual cues and structure. But the IDE is nice though.

Not entirely true with ANNs built through deep learning. They can and often do exhibit unintended behaviors. When you start getting into a system of connected sub neural networks, the "why" can be obfuscated by the hidden layers.
Out of interest, if I may ask, did you start using Huel to fix a nutritional deficiency of some sort, or did you simply like the appeal? I've heard a fair few people say they feel generally healthier or 'better' after beginning it, which I find interesting.

I've been using Huel on-and-off for a few months — to replace my lunches for a few days each week, or when I don't fancy breakfast, or if I realise I haven't eaten enough calories in a day. I might start regularly replacing my breakfast with it, now.

Note that this was for the public-key formulation. For the secret key formulation, it is mixing in the key, so it's not pure security through obscurity. It may be -- probably is -- relatively poor cryptography, but it's not just doing a transformation of the plaintext without using the key.

The public key part is in there mostly because of the formulation, not because we actually had any noteworthy success in training a network to learn pubkey. The result we mentioned was probably an anomaly, but it's an interesting anomaly to dig into more in the future.

But, in general, the parent is correct. There are few guarantees about a scheme derived in this way. It's one of the things I think most interesting for future work: Can one formulate "can't be cryptanalyzed by a mathematically sophisticated adversary?" as an adversarial training goal? Certainly, it's solvable for the one-time-pad-like scenario we used, but what about for more general cases that permit key reuse?
I gave the XPS 15" a serious consideration. Wasn't gonna wait for the Apple event and buy one a month earlier. Then I read a lot of horror stories. Couldn't be sure about reliability.

Doesn't really offer too much over the MBP I guess? It was faster as month earlier but the new ones should be on par. If my main OS was Linux it could be the best choice.

I wonder if my concerns about reliability is bogus. Gotta check a little more about reviews.
120-140K base with a 60-70K bonus was about where the average was for tech programmers. This is barely competitive in NY during the good years -- it sure as heck doesn't fly in bad years.

Quant technologists are a different beast. Like traders, they eat what they kill, and a 50/500 payout matrix may well make sense for them.
It does work great, meaning that it reliably executes the intended functionality correctly. My problem is that the intended functionality is not what I want. I have lots of terminals, Emacs windows, browser windows, etc. open at any given time, and I want my window manager to be agnostic to which is which. When I signal "focus next window", I want that to both jump between windows of an application AND jump to a window of another application, whichever is next in the focus ring. You can't (easily at least) do that on a Mac.
I think this an accurate summation of the state of things. It just took some of us longer to realize it than others.

Apple and I simply don't agree on what matters in a computer anymore. My current MacBook Pro will be my last. I've purchased a ThinkPad and am beginning to transition my work over to it.

My ThinkPad isn't the sort of machine that most people need or want, and certainly not the sort that Apple is interested in building these days, but I think it will meet my needs perfectly.

It already feels nice not needing a dongle just to plug in an Ethernet cable.

>It's time to face the fact that Apple doesn't care about professionals and never has.

and yet despite this, professionals around the world use the Macbook Pro. The user base that apple doesn't care about, and never has cared about, is "power users" - the people who have strong opinions about how their tools should look and behave. There's tons of professionals out there, in many different industries, who simply want a computer that works reliably and that they don't have to think or worry about, and that has always been the segment apple has served. They've never catered to the die-hard macbook pro fans. Function over form has never been the goal. They build laptops with broad appeal that make the compromises that work for a large number of people, and they balance form against function. And yes, sometimes that means form wins out over function.

Apple is just continuing to do what they've always done. They haven't lost their way, people have just been expecting stuff from them that was never realistic.
That would either cut down on the number of "real" displays the built-in GPU could support (right now it supports three: two external plus the built-in one) or would require including a second GPU. This is basically the "second GPU" option with the second GPU bundled as part of a co-processor that's needed anyway for handling payments and fingerprint recognition.

It shouldn't really be up to you to decide.
Were you clicking around the menus all the time or using a heavily modded keymap? Building, running, almost all of the debugger commands, viewing property pages, switching between code and designers, all make heavy use of the function keys out of the box. Those are pretty common tasks.

I think that he could have gotten away with showing a substantial effort towards answering the questions and getting some kind of experimental license to verify the technology is viable, I emphatically do not believe that the goal was to 'kill the company' given that all these questions have - for the automotive industry - reasonable answers and that if Hotz was serious about this that he should not have been totally blindsided by this request.

If he was then he should probably have researched the space a bit better before embarking on the project, it's one thing to be a 'hot hacker' but it's quite another to go into this business without the required knowledge about what being in that business will entail.

Trying to imagine SpaceX/Elon Musk backing out of the rocket business because 'the paperwork is just too damn complicated and lawyers are no fun', ditto for Tesla, Google or any other party that is trying to re-vamp some branch of industry.

If the tech is for real the reporting requirements are a reasonable extra cost to be born by the company, the amount of money available for this tech would dwarf the cost of the reporting.
