You don't need a license to use x86.

Moreover, the x64 was created by AMD, not Intel.
That would be 30 years after they started ARM together with Acorn.
Another one of Reddit's strange social experiments... seems most of the user-base has no idea what is going on.
Math is a tool, too, yet applying mathematical methods is one of the defining characteristics of engineering.
"What's a Computer?"
That was only announced last month. I suspect the only reason they promised to use it for defensive purposes is because its utility is significantly reduced due to successful roll-out of segwit. Had segwit not have passed, I doubt they would leave hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table by not licensing it.
NeXT actually had prototype PPC hardware, so they may have had that at the ready too. Less developed and with less driver support of course.
Then, be extra super wary about any batteries near christmas trees.

(Like, if you pick _one_ takeaway from this and change _one_ thing about your life, maybe that one?)
Overleaf (https://www.overleaf.com) | REMOTE | Developer for 'Server Pro'

Overleaf is an online LaTeX editor with over 2 million registered users. We help academics collaborate more effectively and make LaTeX easier to work with. We recently acquired ShareLaTeX.com and are merging the two platforms into Overleaf v2.

We're looking for a full stack developer to work mainly on 'Server Pro', our on-premise solution for enterprise --- to help us scale up and improve our product, processes and documentation for on-premise customers, who currently include Oak Ridge National Labs, Deep Mind, and many more. Ideally you will be comfortable with Docker, build automation and technical documentation, and with talking to technical end users to work through problems and make improvements to prevent those problems from reoccurring.

Some reasons you'd enjoy working with us:

- Around 80% of our codebase is open-source and we're big fans of Free Software.

- Working hours can be flexible to your needs. Applicants in or near GMT are preferred.

- We're agile (with a lowercase a). We test thoroughly (unit and acceptance), we have a CI build process, a full staging environment to play with, and we automate as much as possible.

- Remote is a first class citizen, all founders and employees work remotely. We get everyone together in London every few months for valuable face to face time.

Please see https://www.overleaf.com/jobs for more information and how to apply.
Makes me wonder, what would it take to legislate the use of personal information?

Maybe we are getting close to this point?

Seems like situations that result in direct pressure on the legislators would be more productive than ones involving us, their “employers”...
I feel like it's only a matter of time before we see some devastating compromise(s) of security using the OPM hack and/or hacks of private data sources.

When you look at some of the common methods intelligence adversaries use to ensnare assets (extortion, money, exploiting sympathies, stroking egos, revenge, etc.) the information in these hacks are a treasure trove the likes of which may never have been seen before. I can't imagine the various powers that be in the US Gov't are ready for the espionage threat posed by this..

Thanks for sharing this. Pretty neat imagery. There was another post above this on the list that equated it to Sim-city-esque aesthetic. I can totally see that on some of these.
Massive Breach in Panera Bread
Probably too early to tell, but I'd imagine this will mark the death of the Hackintosh? It's a shame, because I had a lot of fun hunting down all of the information and files I needed to convert one of my old PC's over.
And yet, it has, for definitions of "everything" that aren't a desktop computer, or an iDevice.
I think for a site full of developers, the almost exclusively welcome reactions to such a change are intriguing.

Don't you worry you will have to cross-compile to run your programs on the amd64 server? Or how you are going to debug locally bugs that may arise from a different architecture? Or that homebrew could be in an inconsistent state for some years until all software catches up with the new architecture?
Relevant: http://atp.fm/205-chris-lattner-interview-transcript/#bitcod...

I wouldn't assume that Bitcode is a huge help with this. Per Chris Lattner in the linked transcript, "It's useful for very specific, low-level kinds of enhancements, but it isn't a panacea that makes everything magically portable."
Not the Parent commenter, but I can give some thoughts:

- The phone is not designed to listen around the room explicitly, more near field, so it can't hear everything.

- An iPhone seems to have pretty decent privacy settings (only the app can listen while app is open, etc)

- I personally have a phone I can reflash with mostly open source software (only baseband/fivers proprietary), so I am reasonably sure that my phone is not spying on me.

The Game Theory Math Behind Rock-Paper-Scissors
If the current MacBook Pro is any indication, then I would be surprised if people are still buying Macs at all in 2020.
I sensed this transition from the point that Apple released the new small MacBook.
>So what's the benefit? Just vertical integration, I guess? Escaping Intel's backdoors and high prices?

Yes, and perhaps better power/performance ratio. Possible iOS binary compatibility as well.

It should be an easier transition than from PPC -> Intel, since at that time, most big apps used CodeWarrior and had to transition to XCode along with the architecture move.
> You don't need a license to use x86.

Factually wrong. Ask Microsoft. ;)
You're living in a fantasy world if you think that fiddling with the settings deters, in the slightest, any corporation or government from using your portable-wiretapping device to listen to you and track everything else its technically capable of tracking (with its gyroscope and internal measurement devices of all kinds).
Maybe a trackpad with a screen behind it. Apple already has an A series chip running the touchbar. Why not an iPhone under the trackpad?
One of the authors of this piece is Mark Gurman. Lately, Gurman has gotten legit scoops on news, but has then interpreted the small gem of a scoop into a story which is entirely wrong.

In other words, take this with a huge grain of salt.
Eventually, probably. But they'll still support existing Macs with new software for a while after the transition.
If they wanted to go x86 they would just buy VIA? I think it will be aarch64
> This allows Apple to switch to intel chip on iPhone, or switch to an ARM chip on MacOS.

I think you're assuming way too much. Says Chris Lattner regarding Bitcode, "It's useful for very specific, low-level kinds of enhancements, but it isn't a panacea that makes everything magically portable." [1]

>One wonders what would have happened if they just sort of let Windows be Windows.

Presumably, given that the opposite has happened, in that case, "targets" would not have been met by "Q4" and important team members would have to be "let go".

As you point out, this is not new. I would pin the start of this trajectory on the introduction of Windows Activation with XP. It's all variations on the theme of restricting the user's freedom. It hasn't been your software since 2001. It's theirs.
And many will eventually be outsourced. In fact, systems administration as a profession is on the downswing due to the cloud. This site itself is largely focused on "disrupting" inefficiency with automation.
Companies use patents defensively and the Times is fully aware of that so this comes across as cynical clickbait.

What I find interesting is that they keep quoting "consumer watchdog" an anti google organization turned anti technology (they're against self driving cars and robots now).

The scary thing is that mainstream respected news outlets casually traffic in technophobia as evident form articles about automation and AI for example and how every piece mentioning a tech company is permeated with FUD about their motivations or their "power".
Glancing at the supreme court case, I'm not sure that observations that police officers can do from a public place have a good application to this area.

I think the public expectation part was specifically whether thermal imaging was too invasive and not an observation that the general public would make from the street.
> Why do you suppose the Dutch and Danish never wear bike helmets?

I don't. This is, like all your other justifications, irrelevant to our point of contention and, like all your other assertions, uncited and unsupported.

>I might need you to actually read my comments and do a modicum of research before I take you seriously.

No reason to be obnoxious.

> This is about evaluation of risk and reward.

Care to explain what the reward is here?

> Regarding specifics like helmets and comparative rates of head injuries, I'm sure you're capable of googling for the data. It's interesting stuff. Assuming you're actually interested.

Again, _what_ data? You're telling me there's a data set showing people's relative risk of head injury in a car compared to the same persons risk of head injury on a bike without a helmet? You're making dubious statistical claims for the sake of argument without ever explicitly stating your actual assertion, or anyone else's.

> It's interesting stuff. Assuming you're actually interested.

Show it to me.

And stop being a prick just because someone challenges a viewpoint of yours that you posted on a public forum meant for a debate.

> Microsoft has some magics for executing x86_64 binaries on aarch64 with good performance,

No, they have tech for executing i686 binaries on aarch64, not x86_64. Big difference.

Meanwhile, High Sierra is the last macOS release to support 32-bit binaries.
Whether its the City of London's Police Department or the Greater London Police is splitting hairs. Your comment suggests that the Quad9 was funded by a municipal police force. And that's patently untrue.

If you dug a little deeper on one of your own links you would find that the NYC DA and City of London Police Department donated money to establish a 501(c)3 non-profit to combat cyber crime. That 5013C is but one member of a consortium of 3 companies behind Quad9.

"Knowing the potential that an organisation like GCA could have, the DA committed $25 million in criminal asset forfeiture proceeds to fund this critical work over a five-year period. The Center for Internet Security and City of London Police also made significant contributions in providing space, funding, staff, and assistance with building strategic partnerships."[1]

It’s doable for them. For one thing, even their iPhone chips are currently nipping at the heels of Intel’s low-tdp mobile CPUs, exceeding some ULV parts in performance. For another, they could just push all the difficult stuff into specialized coprocessors. Wrap that into system frameworks and nobody will ever know.
Explosion refers to the increase rate in those percentages, not to the percentages themselves. Example: expecting in a relatively short amount of time, say, 0.1% and getting 4% qualifies as explosion to me.
It's obvious why they failed - they were nowhere near retail spaces.

Speaking as a person with quite a bit of interest in them, I never once saw one in person. Valve's primary failure was not pushing them hard enough. Retail demos go a long way towards public adoption.

Now if we could only get better threading support.
Because x86 was technologically mature in the 90s (superscalar, OoO, vector extensions, …) and basically hit its frequency ceiling in the mid-aughts (modern Core-series finally have frequencies beyond what P4 reached back in 2005~2006 but it took a long time).

ARM was nowhere near there (for it had no need to) before modern smartphones. ARM in 2007 was single-issue in-order single-core topping out at ~600MHz.
Apple will reportedly ditch Intel chips in Macs as early as 2020
Have you seen some of the things people do on their mattresses? I certainly wouldn't want to sleep on one secondhand without having it cleaned first.
Literally last week I had a conversation with Apple about a swollen laptop battery.

They said it’s not a fire hazard but I should replace it and not use the laptop.

And, refused to replace it because it was in a “vintage” laptop.

Carefully crafted language.

"Container" means two related but different things nowadays: (1) an abstraction to group some processes and give them their own pid, fs, and network spaces; and (2) an archive that contains some application(s) and everything that's required to run them (minus the kernel), plus metadata on what it is and what it requires from the host kernel to actually run.

Personal note: I've been at Abl since October, as a member of the engineering team, and I love it. The team and the mission continue to make me want to come into the office every morning. If you have any questions for me, my email address and LinkedIn are in my profile.
I've been seeing it for six months almost. Maybe https-everywhere was doing this but I also used to use CNN as a hotel WiFi sign-in gate so I noticed it back then.

Funny how many people independently ended up in that same situation. How did y'all start?
He is referring of course to the PowerPC architecture. It did not have a performance lead over Intel for as long as you suggest. Even when it had a lead, it wasn't that big. (I bought the best G5 when it came out, so it's a painful memory)

The problem with switching to a different architecture is that if it falls behind Intel, people will say "not as fast as a PC." If you stay with Intel and it falls behind, people say nothing. It's risk vs. no reward.
I've been through the PPC to Intel migrations so many times for so many school districts that I'm still fairly amazed at how well it usually went as long as the apps weren't trash.

The biggest issues I ran into was always with the low quality edu based applications. So many of the issues we had with those apps were because they were created in Windows and ported half way to OS X, an old PPC version that did something special that the Intel version couldn't do, or the worst one using a special baked in version of Adobe Flash..

>How many of the people that buy an Echo have been harmed so far?

That entirely depends on your definition of "harm". Those of us who see intrinsic value in privacy would be grievously harmed.
Another step along the path to public markets becoming essentially a suckers' game to siphon money away from passive investors.

Those who possess actual money seem to understand that real investments come with terms and conditions. Not just "Here's 10% of my salary, see you again when I retire."
Standard math failure. It's the same with programming languages. I never trust anything that got a "2x" speedup because if a gaping optimization like that exists, it's likely not ready for prime time.
First I just want to say that I agree with you, that was an explosion; explosion and detonation aren’t necessarily the same thing. Loud noise and rapidly expanding gas = explosion. One correction though, which is that a shockwave is supersonic, and just judging by the fact that burning fragments were on the floor and not punching through the wall, I’ll guess it wasn’t supersonic.

Still an explosion!
Clearly, blockchain!

But no seriously, this seems like an actual technology / problem fit, although you'd need a decent amount of tooling, product design, etc for it to work - but some of that's already being explored by the "open source + blockchain" endeavors.

In basic form, I imagine you'd basically turn the transaction fees into review fees.

(The product design and tooling comes from how you prevent abuses to that basic format, I think)

sustained use of an A11 will not beat an Intel chip due to better cooling and IPC

In an iPad profile sure the heat dissipation is very limited. With even a basic passive heat sink (not just a spreader, but actual fins for surface area), much less active cooling like most laptop and desktops use, and the heat profile dramatically changes.

This change was inevitable -- recent A## chips have been just astonishing for passively cooled chips. The state of the art in binary translation, and the support for cross compiling across architectures, makes this a very doable transition.
