There is no question that every one of the big five will advance the state of the art. IMHO, google will create amazing technology around self driving cars, and likely a bunch of other stuff. They don't have the need, the urgency, or the hunger that Tesla has.

Ask a google engineer. they'll tell you Tesla is screwing up the market. Tesla is risking the existence of self driving cars ever happening. One big failure means massive lawsuits and regulation. That may be true. But it's clear, Google does not need the win. Google is unwilling to take the risks to make it happen. They're going the Xerox route.

And that's completely fine. Google has a lot to lose. They could easily be put in a situation where they have to pay billions, for years. They will get there eventually, they might even win. They're just structurally incapable of risking what Tesla can risk.

That is the thing, I don't run any VMs on my computers besides the iOS and Android emulators.
Because Ideapads are developed by Chinese teams, with much lower target price points, and are under the management who thought Superfish was a good idea. Thinkpads don't have these problems.

> Nothing of value will be lost.

Except for loss in revenue for Apple. Most tech companies right now prefer to buy Macs for devs because of the costs[1] and devs like it because of the versatility.
If devs wont prefer Macs, it seems unlikely that the companies will also keep buying them in bulk

I guess we'll know for sure once they ship. Hopefully, it could be be something that's configurable to preference.

If it's just an ugly margin around the Esc key then I still think it's poor UX work.
I like the ability to easily have multiple panes without having to learn tmux.
Sure. But what I haven't seen on Windows or Linux is the deliberate high priority scheduling of a dummy process designed to throttle the CPU.
Use the trackpoint instead? Honestly the trackpoint on TPs has been a major, maybe the biggest, deterrent for me to abstain from ultrabooks.
>Radeon 460

AMD GPU. Inefficient / power-hungry. This means that battery life will be destroyed. Also, have fun with those endless driver issues.

Also, the configuration you quote costs around £2,500+, which is a total rip-off. You could get a laptop with better components from basically any company that exists (even Razer!), and still have enough money left over to buy a second-hand car or a medium/top-of-the-range desktop.

They've shot themselves in the foot.
DotBRAND New GTLDs: Is Nomulus the Answer?
I was expecting a "Django SQL" Explorer, for example a Django ORM -> SQL compiler playground, but got a Django "SQL Explorer".
That's not really true, if you configure equivalent rMBP and Thinkpad, the Thinkpad is going to cost you more.
The CPU will throttle itself soon enough after that anyway. The only difference would be that without the kernel throttling it earlier, it can get a bit hotter and last a bit longer before throttling.
T460s only has partially replaceable memory, some of it is soldered on. And god help you if that fails outside warranty, spare Thinkpad mainboards usually cost more than a new laptop.
They do feel solid. But the innards are not as good (e.g.: poor Broadcom Wi-Fi cards, bad power management).

And the ThinkPad units didn't have Superfish or the Win10-only-SSD BIOS lock.
After I used many of dated terminals, everything from xterm to urxvt (was ok), to more modern ones like termite (this one I liked very minimal), I really appreciated everything about iTerm. The amount of GUI customization is insane, plus you can configure everything about from key bindings to mouse, arrangement, etc etc. I really liked it how it doesn't get in your way. Splits are amazing, it is the only terminal where clipboard has worked perfectly with tmux,zsh,vim/emacs combo out of the box. I was really impressed how little configuration it required.
"Why are the Ideapads terrible?"

They're consumer models, and the ones most likely to be affected by Lenovo's malware shenanigans. Most "PC" OEMs tend to build their business lines better than their consumer lines, and Lenovo's no exception. The Thinkpad line also has a reputation of being friendlier to non-Windows operating systems in general (they're the most-recommended for OpenBSD, for example), while the Ideapad line very much does not.

"Why get a Developer Edition?"

Because they're designed with Linux compatibility in mind, from what I understand.

I've been preparing a "plan B" for my iOS developer career, and I've installed elementary and a Fedora 25 alpha to see what's going on in Linux land. To me, Fedora's GNOME 3 seems just as pretty and minimal as elementaryOS. It's way less cluttered than GNOME 2. I actually had to figure out how to clutter it up again (I want files on my desktop!).

Some of us were using those antiquated ports.
Yeah, this is basically my opinion too. Luckily I was due for an upgrade last year when the Broadwells came out so Im set for a few years, otherwise this would have been a painful update for me.

I believe is fair for them to raise prices if they need to in order to properly achieve their targets. I'm willing to pay those prices every 3-4years for a better machine where I do 100% of my work. But they need to make them worth the price!

Instead, they removed a lot of useful things used every day by me, added things many won't have a use for (I use my laptop docked most of the time) and still they didn't make them top of the line spec wise (8gb/256gb at 2000$, max only 16gb), while being 500$ for the same BTO options!.
I've been struggling with the same question, ending up sticking with the MBPs.

Resell value, build quality, battery life, weight are all factors that other manufacturers can't match. I really wish they'd released something better though.

The CE mark isn't a stamp of approval from a regulatory body. It's a claim made by the manufacturer of the product, a claim that says "yes sure we follow these european rules". Anybody can put that stamp on their product. Now do they actually meet the regulations?

There is no international, let alone global "police" checking these products' conformity before they enter the market. In different countries, there are local authorities who might make random inspections, potentially exposing a fraction of the products that do not actually meet the regulations.

Obviously the dream would be for it to look like a MacBook Pro, but I would give up the sleek case if I could run OS X reliably on that sucker.
iOS thrived on Apps, Apps built by talented developers for whom the Mac is the platform of choice. A lot of MacOs' appeal comes from great 3rd party apps as well, the first party stuff on iOS and MacOs is mostly a commodity.
In the long run I believe Apple should absolutely listen to the developers/professionals that create amazing content for/on their platform which goes a long way to make the platform desirable for consumers.
Disappointed by the new Macbook? Try the old Macbook.
The proposal was mostly tongue-in-cheek. That said, I'm not sure the problem is solved in other industries - there's been plenty of unsafe electrical devices being sold to western markets, for example. It's just hard to police this stuff.

Do you honestly believe that the current macbook (note the 12" not the new pro) will not wanes in performance in the next 4 years as we have historically seen with the macbook air?

I ask because while my macbook air coming up to 3 years and feels almost like a brand new machine - the current 12" is actually slower than my air. Can i really expect that to have 4 years of solid performance updates on the macbook?

In that case should i expect my air to last me the next 4 years and do just well for a solid 8 years of great performance?
I remapped my keys like this:

The Lotus Sevens: The Real Most Hackable Car
I should be working on a mobile terminal device (like a Chromebook.. or an iPad Pro) and using my 400 core cluster with 1.5TB of RAM.

The cloud just isn't all that useful for pro users because it's in a datacenter far, far away and shared with an unknown number of other simultaneous users.

What good is 1.5TB of working memory when my data is local, for example video? At typical network speeds, it would take me months just to upload that 1.5TB of data.
I know. I'm one of them.

But I will always applaud Apple for when they do things like this because through sheer attrition they will move the industry forward.

The iMac is largely what made USB a success. And I am hoping this will make a single connector world a success.
Slide, rather than raise, your thumb off the sensor.
As a more reliable way to confirm if you have some thermal problem on an older Mac, download and run Intel Power Gadget. That shows the current frequency of the CPU, and when combined with running some program that puts all cores under load, you can see if the frequency drops below what is designed for.

Be aware it isn't always thermal paste that is the culprit. I had a 2012 Retina 15" MBP that was normally 2.6GHz but would drop down to 1.4GHz. That was purely due to the fans and (tiny) vents getting choked up. Solved by opening and using compressed air to clean, no fiddling with CPU paste.

It used to be better TBH -- you had access to all of the images high resolution versions (enough for print quality); now it seems you don't.

Seems their 'angle' is that the process often useless images into nice ones -- it's true, it's not easy to do something with bad quality scan, but I agree with the other posts that it's now way too overloaded with ads.

Still, they found, treated and published some marvelous images, so they do get some credit for that.
The '-s' models are all designed to be slimmer counterparts to the non-'-s' models. Apart from that, the T460 should be identical to the T460s; and I'd recommend the former instead of the latter for the same reason you mention.
Worth it for:

>If the feature is a gimmick to you, it's fine

If I'm familiar with an application, I don't look at the keyboard. If I'm VERY familiar with an application, I don't even recall commands through their mnemonic, but through muscle memory.

For example, I've just switched to spacemacs from vim, and one of the first commands to learn is Ctrl+G, which is to exit from any menu. "Escape from menu" is not mapped into my brain as C-g, but as "pinky here and left index finger here." In contrast, when I want to change to next buffer, I think <SPC> b n, and not "thumb, right index finger on this button, then right index finger on this button" (although I'm sure that it will become muscle memory before long.)

HOWEVER, the nice thing about spacemacs is that you can press space and you see all possible commands pop up in the command buffer. This is a highly effective method for learning commands, and it is similar to how the "ribbon design" functioned in Microsoft Office 2007. This is where I think the E-ink keyboard could be most useful: in teaching keystrokes. It's essentially the same thing as looking down at the spacemacs command buffer, but you get to see the command pop up on your keyboard.

That being said, there are a lot of downsides to the whole idea. You're stuck with a very limited set of switch-and-layout combinations if you want an e-ink keyboard. Secondly, keyboards take a lot of abuse, and I don't know how much a replacement e-ink keycap costs, or where I'm going to get one (maybe this won't be such an issue, though). Finally, the glyph can only be represented as a glyph, and not as a detailed command like it can in a spacemacs buffer.

Cool product though; I'd get one if I had money to burn!
What exactly is it that makes you think iTerm is so good? I've started using a MBP after years on ubuntu and I don't think which terminal I am using makes much difference. All I am going to do is open tmux anyway.
Hipster on the faultline Hills, you pay so much for so little, at least you can look down on the rest of us, whose existence is worthless and brittle.
On /r/apple, keynote megathreads were an angry affair. All subsequent MBP-related threads, even the ones with positive titles, are full of people discussing alternatives. The "preorder" thread has been hastily unpinned.

These are the people who spent a year posting almost-daily "waiting" threads, and who would normally be discussing how to cheat or sell their souls to get the latest gizmo right away. I expect people in /r/pcmasterrace are laughing.
No need for /s. That's a valid concern that gets mentioned often in discussions like this.

If a biometric sensor can be tricked by a body part that is no longer attached to the body, that's a serious issue. But AFAIK at least modern sensors try to verify if it's still alive and then there's also the biological effect that a body part quickly changes its properties if it is no longer supported by the body.

The biggest danger in that is probably criminals who don't know that it is likely that a detached body parts stops functioning.
People writing long articles or novels don't run a MBP, they used the Air or now the normal MacBook, you don't need a Pro machine for that.
> I'm in the fortunate position that this is possible for me since I live in the city

I can't approve. You've made the choice. You've paid for this choice. People keep claiming that I'm lucky to live close from my work and not have children. I was a choice, and blaming it on chance undervalues the effort we make (i.e. paying twice the price for housing and/or only choosing among jobs within a certain radius of public transports).

> I believe action against climate change cannot be effective at an individual level

Yes. After travelling the world, I've seen that there will always be another Mythbusters show to waste cars, another person who'll have an unfair advantge on me by using air conditioning and long-distance travel, and another child born in the world who deserves the same amoung of energy luxury I've lived in.

Unless all countries pass a tax on petrol usage (I mean a huge tax which will make cars, meat and heating too expensive for 95% of the population), we're doomed.

No not really, while Chrome certainly isn't perfect it's usually using less than 10% of my memory. I don't think the objections would go away if it supported 17GB, or even 18GB.
'I, Daniel Blake' is accurate – despite what some critics say
Have you ever employed 50+ people?

Being self employed and being an employer are entirely different sports.

I don't hate anyone, but I am certainly a hate figure. I was the asshole who chased invoices, sat clients down and told them their rates were going up, asked people not to be drunk at their desks, that sort of thing. Someone has to do the dirty work, and it doesn't win you friends or make you happy.
The problem with that terminal (and lots of other with 'loads of features) is that it tries to reinvent the wheel. Why would I need SSH, file transfers, command editors, etc, when all of that is done by the shell itself? If I need ssh I just run 'ssh' on my terminal, and that's it. If I need to edit a command I press Ctrl-X + E and bash/zsh shows me a command editor (vim or emacs or nano, whatever you want).

What, in my opinion, makes iTerm good is that it doesn't try to redo all the things that shells do, but instead tries to give you better access to that shell. For example, one thing which is surprisingly difficult to find in terminal programs: a drop-down terminal. In iTerm, I press Cmd + Shift + 1 and a terminal appears in the top of the screen. Quick access, quick hide, and always there to do whatever quick thing I need to do. Another feature: no space waste. iTerm does not have toolbars, buttons or anything, it's all terminal because that's all I need. Only a tab bar with multiple tabs, and if you want a title bar on split mode (optional, I personally have it disabled).

It also complements the shell in system integration: one thing which is incredibly useful is the trigger system. For example, when I'm waiting for a host to come up, I just run "ping whatever" and hide the window. When the text "64 bytes from... " appears, a trigger I configured fires and shows me an OS X notification. You can also highlight text in the terminal or do any other custom action, which can be very useful.

Even if you could reach them, what arguments will you provide them with to even start to consider pushing for a change of plan? As far as they can predict (and they are probably quite knowledgeable about the market) people will buy their laptops and they will make a neat profit. That is, Apple upper management is doing its job — making a profit; having some long term strategic vision.

They are undoubtedly aware of a certain amount of discontent being vented on the internet, and will most likely consider placating it (not addressing it) a process that needs to be looked into to.

If you want to make a difference, vote with your wallet. System76 makes nice laptops, and Dell's XPS line isn't too bad.

Portability, power and build quality are all excellent. Battery life isn't up to MacBook standards, but you get a good 4 to 5 hours on a single charge which is still fairly usable. The trackpad isn't as nice as a MacBook either, but it's good enough. Everything else about it has the MacBook Pro completely outclassed in my opinion.
I couldn't find an English version yet. Basically, during an internal affair inquiry, detectives found that a police officer had contacted a journalist. They asked a judge to issue several warrants to be able to get DNR (dial number recorder) from the journalist's iPhone and, according to this article, they were able to activate the iPhone's GPS to follow the journalist.

About the GPS: I didn't know it was possible to do this (is the signal transmitted to the carrier?).
