> You'll probably get the new MBP. If you really can't handle the dongles, get the 2nd to latest version. It'll last you more than 4 years easily. If you're the type to get a new model every year: either you work very closely with the MBP hardware itself or you need to re-examine your life.

I did try my hand at an apple machine for awhile. Bought one of their "high quality" laptops. Used it until multiple keys broke - the < key angled sideways when part of the hinge broke, and the capslock key literally snapped in half. There are less extreme measures to discourage me from macro and template metaprogramming...! I've never had a laptop break that fast before or since. They wanted me to leave the entire laptop with them for weeks to replace the keyboard, IIRC, so I passed and just used the exposed membrane for awhile.

Since then, I've turned down a free MBP at work. I'd exhaust the max memory linking. I want a sane, tactile keyboard. They didn't splurge enough on the SSD to fit my projects on. The display isn't even 4K. I'll be forced to dual boot if I try to use it as a laptop. It's overpriced - and while an overpriced iPhone dongle for iOS development may be necessary, I'd much rather have a Mac mini and have the difference spent on more 4K monitors, more RAM, more SSD space, and more cores for my PC build.

I've finally gotten around to retiring my 2009 PC build this year. Admittedly, I replaced the motherboard once when it failed, and upgraded the RAM, but that's still doing better than a dead-out-of-the-gate MBP I'm afraid. Which is a shame - I'd like more competition for my money.
The Mental Model That Debunks 95% of Business and Personal Development Advice
I understand your evident discomfort. How galling to find that seventeen million people (dumbos?) constituting the 'mob' (five million more than ever voted at any period in any UK general election) gave a thumbs down to the EU as a governing body that imposes rules and regulations on people irrespective of their wishes. If only those intellectuals who <did> support Brexit had had a better education!

No I didn't forget meat. Meat production does not directly put carbon atoms into the air (forget methane for a second). That is what I mean by direct emissions. When we decouple energy from carbon, the amount of greenhouse gasses produced by agriculture changes. The problem with such calculations you refer to is that they assume the current rate of CO2 emissions per unit of energy produced/consumed. When we reduce that number to zero, which we will, those calculations are useless. (Farming is a little more complex due to deforestation and methane, but still the argument stands.) This is whats wrong with people who try to calculate MPG equivalents of electric cars based on the current emissions from power production. Electric cars do not release any CO2, period. Power production currently does, but we will fix that separately.

We need to apply system level thinking to this problem, what is a strategy that will lead to zero (acceptable) emissions? We need to focus 100% on that strategy. I believe lifestyle changes based on moral arguments are a distraction due to the following reasons:

1. Its completely unrealistic to change behaviour at that scale

2. Even if successful the effect is only a minor delay, not an actual solution. Any gains due to consumption reductions is more than offset by growth.

3. Focusing on such things may be counterproductive. First by creating opposition to the entire climate change agenda, telling people to change their way of life makes them oppose it any way they can, including denying the problem completely. Secondly we need to stimulate demand for zero emission technologies, reducing consumption is counterproductive to that.
If someone at that age breaks a hip, they're looking at spending the rest of their lives in bed, unfortunately.

> Brand new screen digitiser technology in the iPad Pros that also puts them several years ahead of any of their competitors.

What technology are you talking about?

> mobile processor designs putting them years ahead of any of their competitors in yet another technology category.

Are you talking about the A10 Fusion? It's the fastest single-core processor, but according to https://www.pcper.com/reviews/Mobile/Apple-iPhone-7-and-7-Pl... the Snapdragon 820 has a faster GPU and the Kirin 950 a better mutli-core score in Geekbench. So I wouldn't say that their mobile processor design is years ahead (it's more that iOS doesn't need more than two cores and therefore they can really optimize single-core performance).

Your company is valued at X, you take on Y in loan and invest some of that into, e.g., buying and laying fiber. Your company will now be valued at X+f*Y, where f is some adjustment factor. E.g. you may not get the same money back if you sold the fiber today. On the other hand, that fiber is projected to earn you some money over time.

I do agree those are huge figures, but it could make sense.

Just curious, what graphics hardware were you using? Intel? Nvidia? ATI? I've used Intel and Nvidia extensively and had very few, if any, issues. Intel's drivers are open source, integrated with Linux, and fantastic. Nvidia performance is indeed worse than on Windows, but not enough for me to care. ATI is a mess and has been for more than a decade. Don't use ATI if you want to use Linux.

another example that i had the other day: lets say you have a cache of some sorts, now you keep adding entries to the cache without deleting them, in the end it blows up because it is out of memory. Now technically it is not a leak, but the result is that of a leak.

Now good luck solving that with smart pointers and reference counting, etc.
If only it were that simple. Turns out that, rather than being constrained by the deposits/assets they have on hand (FRB doctrine), banks will create the loans they believe they can make, then go settle up with the central bank/regulators.

Dangerous Ideas
As an example of "enterprise", scroll all the way down to the bottom of the IntelliJ page[1] for the section "Choose
your edition". In the "Ultimate" column, you'll see extra features such as support for IBM Rational Clearcase, MS TFS, and Java EE.

Hobbyists, students, and most startups in the web/mobile space don't use those corporate/enterprise products.[2]

Since this new announcement makes the Ultimate version free for students, I suppose some observers wonder why college students couldn't just use the Community edition which was already free.

[2]the IBM Clearcase of $2000 is example of "enterprise" pricing: http://estore.gemini-systems.com/ibm/software-license/ration...

(Most college students would probably just use Git/Github instead of IBM Clearcase.)
It's completely spot-on; I remember the Gnome 1-to-2 transition and it was exactly like what we have today. Except that Gnome 2 was not as big as Gnome 3, so the transition took a little less time, and its interface wasn't so radically different from Gnome 1, so it didn't generate as much rage (it also helped that uttering the words "brand presence" on the mailing lists would usually get you flamed, but I digress).

Gnome 2 actually turned out to be a lot better than Gnome 1, but it took a long time, and the unpleasant thing is that when it finally became polished enough not to be annoying on a daily basis, it enjoyed about two years of quality life before the CADT wheel started spinning again. I'm sure Gnome 3 will eventually be a lot better than Gnome 2 (it already is, in a lot of ways, but it's hard to enjoy it when it keeps crashing and when you have to tweak it for days after every update).

At least on the GTK side, things are actually starting to look a little better (the GTK team has a long-term roadmap, for instance).

I mean absolutely no offence, but it looks like our businesses were rather different. My business which I left is an ecommerce platform developer and implementor - it's very fast moving, very high volume, 24/7, and clients quite literally put their entire businesses in their hands. Contracts in the multi-million range with five year terms. It looks like your outfit (I may be mistaken!) is more of a "daylight" shop, and may not have all the same stressors that that which I left had.

Makes your point no less valid, however - all businesses are different. I walked into a bear pit, thinking it was a rose garden.
Can't wait for the ad industry to die. I'll do what I can to help that process along.
Thanks, that confirms my intuition. So maybe the marketers use it to scare-away the people who wouldn't be able to afford the product and would waste their time by contacting them for a price and even request demos.
It also sounds like it was written by someone who was not actually there. Most of the content in the article is old news and there are no real personal insights that ring true. E.g. the notion that the team was ok with changing the name from "irrational games" is totally inaccurate; it was a source of tremendous tension between the dev team (at least in Boston) and 2K.
"it's better if they spent the time to use Vim/Emacs or just got going with Atom/VSCode/Sublime."

It's better learning to use the tools they will need. Period.

The problem is what tools will they need? The tools for Web Dev is different from iOS dev is different from game programming is different from... The tools available on Windows are different from the tools available on Linux... different form the tools on Macs...

I'm sorry, but "real programmers learn to use VIM and bad ones use IDEs" is BS.

Real programmers do what every craft does: Gets the best tools they can get their hands on and learns the in's and out's of them.

Which is why you keep going back to the best tools available. You'd be an idiot not to.
But what illustrator/designer would choose to use a bad keyboard? And if we're already assuming a desk, I don't think any writer or developer would choose a small screen (and indeed today's "small" desktop screens are the same size as the "artist/designer-only large" screens of a decade ago). Nor do I think anyone would deliberately choose non-touch, since other things being equal touch sensitivity is purely an upgrade (and the surface book shows touch doesn't have to mean compromises on other aspects of the screen). At its current price point the Surface Studio only makes sense for those who really need its capabilities, but as a writer/developer I would absolutely use one if it were cheap enough.
Thanks! It's reassuring to hear this sort of things in the middle of the current zomg MPB bad rage.

I regret that I took the easy way out studying math. When calculus was too hard in high school I switched into a Pascal class, that I already knew, because it was taught by the math department and gave me the same credit. I suppose my real regret was that I let fear over grades dictate what I chose to learn.
[TheShadowBrokers] Message#5 – Trick or Treat?
I did the opposite. When I could have taken easy classes I took hard ones. Sometimes I did poorly because I challenged myself so much academically. The result was a mediocre GPA (~3.2). There are a lot of lost opportunities that come with not gaming the system.
Windows as a software developer is not a fun experience. Until Windows improves my ability to build shit in something other than .net, C#, etc(video game dev not withstanding) and improves the command prompt to function more like a console, I have no interest in going back what so ever.
No one has suggested a composite experience instead of "THE" ideal experience.

So to feel the rush of falling and spinning in space strap a snowboard to your feet and go to a parachute training school (with the giant 100 HP air fan) and get levitated a bit.

Hanging out with young people makes you feel young, go to the nicest park out there and check it out for an afternoon and watch and learn.

Experience wheels under your feel by attaching two fast/strong football wide receivers one to each shoulder and stick a board under your feet and just go down a sidewalk at 5 mph or however fast the football players can walk. Hey, I felt wheels under my feet and the clunk of going over sidewalk pavement joints and I can balance on a board. Sure there's two 250 pound football players holding me up but its kinda like the real thing.

Finally maybe analog ish VR. Find a FPV drone pilot who's a skater, get some time at a park (like when old people are awake and kids are asleep like 6am sunrise or five minutes after rain stops when its too wet to skate but drone is fine) and put the FPV video on him and tell the drone pilot to fly the course like he's skating it, at about eye height and about as fast as a skater.
Have you ever taken a look at DueCredit (https://github.com/duecredit/duecredit)? It aims to address this problem by allowing you to add citations directly to your Python code using decorators. I believe there are also plans to expand to other languages in the future.
None of the standard connector specs has the bandwidth to support a 5K signal at the same level of quality, so they can only do it in an all-in-one system until the public standard connector tech catches up.

heh. Yea me too. I grew up in a country where they sexually repress people. That inertia kept me from having sex even after I immigrated to a more socially lenient society.
Well that confused me at first. I questioned why those features would qualify for "enterprise software". Then I remembered that the EE in Java EE is for "Enterprise Edition" and my serach made me end up on Wikipedia[1], which explains enterprise software as "computer software used to satisfy the needs of an organization rather than individual users" - it's simple and makes total sense.

I didn't learn to play ball at all when I was 3. Which translated into a lack of friends at a later age, which I didn't succeed to fix in time, which translated into a late first experience with girls, which turned extremely bad. It may sound like a stretch, but not playing the ball (football/basketball/handball) in France gets you excluded from most groups and sucking at manual things harms your self-esteem a lot until ~20 years old.
I think it is dangerous to look at sales only as the driving value of their brand. Apple became what it is today because they made amazing tools for artists and creators in general. This has a major impact on how their brand is perceived. By ignoring the product categories that cater to their core minority they risk destroying their whole brand. So what if their mac pros and their top tier macbook pros only sell a few million? It's a worthwhile investment to ensure that they remain the makers choice and by proxy remain perceived as not only superficially trendy but also actually top notch. The situation reminds me a little of neighborhoods made trendy by artists who are then pushed out by gentrification.
Consider "where xyz was trading last week". This is the price at which deals got done - at which both the buyer and seller thought they were getting a "good enough" deal.

On that day, there are many people holding the stock who do not sell, because they believe the correct price should be higher. And there are many people who might buy, but do not because they think the price is too high.

For an acquisition you have to pay the price where most of the holders _will_ sell. This price is naturally higher than the price where some holders _did_ sell, on a given day.

Not regularly exercising after I finished high school. You should definitely do that. The time to start really exploring all the cool stuff your body is capable of doing is before and during its peak, not as it slides down the slope into the trough of old age.
