The T2 chip is just an ARM CPU running a customized version of watchOS. So in theory malware could take over control of the T2 chip.

I also wonder what implications on features like the mentioned microphone disconnect that'd have. My guess is that the T2 chip which also acts as audio controller, simply doesn't forward audio signals received from the microphone to macOS if the lid is closed.

Edit: Never mind. After reading further it becomes clear that it's really disconnected in hardware:

Maybe not a good idea to use MEMS avionics on a blimp or dirigible, then.

So you've helped what I consider the problem of social media and targeted everything: you decided to reinforce your echo chamber.

The problem with everything giving you suggestion based on your previous behavior (from Netflix and Youtube to Amazon) make people never even see new things and philosophies. The only way they get a view of "the other side" is through the exaggerated prism of their own side. Recommendation engines should start to let a little percentage of their suggestion be really different things or thought appreciated by people you have nothing in common.

Just as a thought experiment: read a description of whatever group you associate with from some opposite media / blog. See how they'll tend to cherry-pick and misinform. Then go back to your usual media and how they inform you.

I don't mean sensors directly attached to the machine. My experience is with NMR spectrometers, which work based on the same principle as MRI machines and have the same superconducting magnets that require liquid helium and nitrogen. And those essentially always have an oxygen sensor in the room somewhere, but not connected to the spectrometer itself.
And sometimes something that should be a simple web page should be just that - I've not got anything against SPAs as such but I do hate looking at a spinner for 30 seconds to eventually look at something that is simply a static page with no interaction.
I wish we could offer prestige in these price / number comparison, not only in different currency, but also the tax rate and incentives. Example in US large part of your paid isn't really "Salary", but bonus package. And if we could at least includes median rent and price of a Big Mac.

In location A where you earn 200K a year but requires you to paid 100K in tax, and spend 50K on rental, versus location B where you paid 20K in tax and 20K in Rental, you actually earn a little more in the 100K package.

i know its value added tax but how is it specifically different from a sales tax. in the us model, since states have a different level of sovereignty compared to the federal government, it is at least somewhat internally consistent that states would have a seperate layer of revenue generation compared to the federal govt revenue generation derived from income. citizens are taxed on the basis of income/capital gains, and transactions for goods are taxes on a sales/tx level. does vat refer in some way to the incremental "value addition" in a marx das kapital sense or something else?
Pretty good theory.

I suppose I'm uncomfortable with it, because it implies that some people just inherently have far less agency than others (disconnected from external factors like appearance, capital, etc), and that has all sorts of far-reaching implications...
After doing that for the last four years, the prospect of focusing again in Web is what makes me shudder.
In a way you are just moving the complexity back to the server code. I am not sure that helps in any way.

The server will now have to have state or reload state on every request and that state could include many things that are not obvious like

- what page are you on
- which links should be shown in the menu
- are there other things on the page that needs to be shown that has little to do with the current request-path

That is great but I would rather have software which does not crash than a team of very enthusiastic developers who are eager to fix bugs. One example of this would be FoundationDB or Riak. I never managed to crash Riak in a production environment, I haven't used FoundationDB in production to say the same but based on the method they use to build the software is just mind blowing and afaik verrry efficient.

They are still "web". Try working with C++ hard-heads. Everything from Jenkins, cloud services, application release over the web, to SPA visualising 3D point cloud is a "stupid HTML website". All they want to know is WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG?! At least that was the case in one of my workplaces.

As far as I understand, most Latin used in naming of species isn't Latin at all.
That has already happened. The NCBI maintains a taxonomy tree:
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/Taxonomy/Browser/wwwtax.cgi?id=...

In this case human the identifier of human is 9606, all kinds of stuff about the human can be queried through this ID. All fungi are classified somewhere under the node 4751. (Even though this website looks awful, its one of the better and most useful resources of the NCBI.)

However this whole taxonomy business is a pretty difficult issue. According to the article, fungal research is (was?) wasting time on morphology. However, even though taxonomic classification through phylogeny is probably a massive improvement, it doesn't solve all issues. In this framework a species is usually defined by some sequence identity cutoff of ultra conserved proteins in the genome. This works probably pretty well for for most eukaryots, however becomes somewhat of an odd measure for bacteria, where two of the same bacteria can have a very low sequence identity of highly conserved proteins. Then you also have another issue, that once you want to classify a new organism, you might only find contaminated, miss classified or in any other way bad entries in the reference databases. Morphology as a sanity check probably makes sense.

Its a big field with a lot of different trade-offs trying to be united under one umbrella. There are no silver bullets.

The current generation of MacBook Pro doesn't have such a recovery port for the SSD anymore. The MacBook Pro 2016 and MacBook Pro 2017 had such a port, but the MacBook Pro 2018, which features the T2 chip, doesn't. As the encryption keys are located inside the T2 chip, if that chips breaks, all data on the SSD is lost.

In the UK, as a business, you can reclaim VAT spent on inputs if you charge it on outputs.

For example:

I buy a Foo for 1200 GBP, 1000 GBP plus 200 GBP VAT

I wiggle it around a bit, improving its' value

I sell a WigglyFoo for 1320 GBP, 1100 GBP plus 220 GBP VAT

I receive 1320 GBP from the customer, but have to pay 220 of that to the government. So my revenue is 1100 GBP.

Subtracting costs I'm at -100 GBP.

If you reclaim the 200 in VAT (which really, you should have an invoice for) then you actually make the 100 GBP profit you should get.

There are cases where a SPA might be a good idea, I think those cases can be counted on one hand. I don’t mean the products, but use cases.

I could imagine it would be more complex to build Slack using traditional server-side rendered HTML than building it as an SPA.

Nowadays though you see blogs, CRM systems, etc being built as SPAs, which just makes it more complex to work on them.

It's not like OP was saying he kept his children deliberately unaware of what ads are, he just limited exposure as much as possible. I'm sure if OP's kid saw an ad, he would explain it to them / advertiser's motives.

But the idea that "more exposure" to ads makes you somehow more resilient to them is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Does Facebook make people more well-adjusted? Does instagram make people less inclined to be shallow? Does increased time on Twitter make people less vitriolic?

When digital networks have an adverse effect on the human psyche (mainly ad networks and social networks), the solution is very demonstrably not "just watch more and you'll become inoculated against them".

In my experience, SPAs often grow to the point where the client-server boundary ends up being right in the middle of data, not between UI and data. The client-side starts to maintain its own complex state and set of data transformations not immediately concerned with UI given anything less than the perfect API.

I hear this, but honestly the fact that they have enough graphical power and the ports to power two monitors is enough to put the oryx pro in a category of it's own.

I looked around for a bit and no other company had the combination of ports, dual monitor support, OS alignment, ridiculously powerful specs, and price (even if it's kinda high).

The only thing that could possibly put me off is reliability or maybe weight/bulkiness, but it's almost an ultrabook form factor.

The, in my opinion false, assumption you seem to be making the entire time, is that the encouragement is consistent for both forms — that it works the same for all people, both content creators and consumers. But there's plenty of people who excel at expression on either long or short form forms.

So I am _not_ claiming that articles or Usenet posts were universally bad — but a claim that they are somehow "better" than Twitter would be just as false. Especially in the case of Usenet. I mean, I don't know how rosy glasses you're wearing, but I do remember what it was like, and while not exactly 4Chan, it was often getting there.

This is the opinion of one man, not the NYT.

But there are so many things that are wrong about his opinion!

1. There was never a "hell of not being able to turn off" email. Nor is there one for social media. There are push notifications implemented as defaults in contexts where they shouldn't be, by hungry marketers and product managers. There's a war for your attention and as long as unscrupulous marketers live and breathe, there always will be. Censorship doesn't solve this. Better software does!

2. The argument that online forums create murderers/criminals is an old bogeyman in new clothes. Remember when conservative reactionaries tried to convince us that D&D promoted Satanism? And then that video games created murderers? This is the same, repeatedly disproven argument. Sane, mentally healthy people don't read incel forums and become murderers. Censorship doesn't solve this, either. Better health care and hard, frank discussion about the problems in our society do. And censorship works directly against open discussion.

3. These flawed arguments are used to call for "better policing" of ideas on the Internet. We don't need this. Policing inevitably means regulations which entrench the most well-funded incumbents and make it harder for new services to complete with better ideas. Yes, Twitter definitely needs to police itself better. So does Facebook. But in the meantime, you can deactivate your account and leave, and maybe even switch to an upstart competitor like Mastodon, which millions of people have already done. That's what needs to be easier. Censorship laws will make it harder. If we close the door now we consign ourselves to a future with largely the same incumbents as the present, and that's a recipe for failure. That really would be the death of our society.

> Orchestrator considers a number of variables during this process and is built on top of Raft for consensus... (from the article)

Doesn't quite make sense to me. Doesn't raft require the master to wait for a quorum before committing writes? I understood it as a pretty important aspect.

> A candidate must contact a majority of the cluster in order to be elected, which means that every committed entry must be present in at least one of those servers (from the raft paper [1])

I understood that the bold is only true if commits are acknowledged by the quorum

It's a very simple concept:

You are allowed to say things.
You are assuming responsibility for, i.e. accepting the consequences of, your right to say things.]

Society is then free to cast you out if you say hateful things. You say this society is not free. This is meaningless to this society, it has chosen to operate on assumptions which are fundamentally incompatible with your behaviour.
