I've always wondered about tools like this. AutoCAD was another tool we had around the house, and my dad always seemed happy enough to use that. In a similar vein, he's always been tied to his emails and teaching portals, but he's always struggled with those - maybe due to web UI's being wildly different wherever you go?

In the case of tools like CorelDRAW and AutoCAD I've always felt that they're complicated, but optimal. Once you know what you need to do, it's easy for power users to do what they want with minimal fuss. It reminds me a bit of git, which most would say has a complicated UI, but makes sense to those power users that have dedicated time to actually learn what is happening under the hood.

The best experience I know of in this regard is from some packages in ML languages, where the string literal query you write gets sent _at compile time_ to a database engine for parsing, using the database's API to determine the query's expected return type (column names and types).

They're most used in F#, which calls them type providers:

In my second example, I used "Julie" instead of "a stranger". The subject is specified in exactly the same way, but people might find "they" more surprising in that case.

Some people might even take it as a potential clue that Julie could be non-binary, because of how much we expect gender-matched pronouns at that point. (Not saying they should, just that they might.)

Once I got used to the new keyboards, I actually far prefer them. Ditto with the TouchBar. Yeah, I'm a heretic I suppose.

Keyboard: pleasant clicky-ness and little movement required. Thin AF.

TouchBar: customized with BetterTouchTools to be a hybrid of my most often-used shortcuts (expand menu, alfred, fantastical, window management, and 1password on the left, notification center and lock screen on the right) and music controls with gestures in the middle: shows current track, can change volume, switch tracks, play/pause, mute, or tap into a submenu to pull up most frequent playlists and add current songs to my library. Way better than using the function keys of old.

Oh and the escape key… long remapped to caps lock. If I really need caps lock, fn + caps lock key toggles it.

> Finally! It took four years to admit there is something wrong. And one more year to change upcoming laptops

I think they admitted something was wrong as soon as they created the replacement program, it's just they have been completely unwilling to alter their planned product schedule to fix it early. When they create a laptop design they expect to be able to ship the same basic chassis design for 3-4 years and in this design the keyboard and chassis are so entwined they're literally bolted together.

We're getting a new non-Pro design revision with it fixed right on schedule and the Pro isn't scheduled to redesign till next year so we get the fix then. Both these fixes could have been in the market 1-2 years ago if they company truly wanted it.

They just decided it either wasn't worth the money, or wasn't worth changing their cadence to fix it early. Just don't think they have much respect for their Mac customers anymore and know they'll stick around.
If any influencer succeeds long term it will be to the extent they serve as a curator of things, services, etc. for people that are otherwise too busy. They can provide value to people on those platforms only to the extent that they provide them with useful information, and if they are whoring themselves out without any standard then people will not be influenced by them.

Point being, curators that are good invest a lot of time (and money) into the domain they are curating. People that love ice cream can tell you a lot about how and why different companies ice creams are different from one another.

IMHO by now if you're still on Facebook you've made a conscious decision to let a business with an awful track-record of respecting its users' privacy basically have carte blanche over whatever you give to them.

I'm sure there are a few folks out there who don't realize this, but most people I talk to about this say they a) hate it but b) don't want to leave the platform because it lets them keep in touch with people. To them, it's worth it. Not to me.
The article makes it quite clear that the seller chose the direct approach rather than wasting his time negotiating with someone, who did not have any leverage or provide any added value for his business. There is a variation of a proverb that was used as a sign and was ubiquitous in bars, pubs, tradesmen, shops et al., which stated: 'Don't ask for credit, as a smack in the mouth often hurts[offends]'. This worked like a charm to ward off any would-be chancers and freeloaders; the ice cream man's version is more modern and less vague.

It also comes across, that he rather enjoyed his meta role of becoming an 'anti-influencer' and then using that influence to get the traditional media involved, thus influencing the silent majority to get behind his message, with bonus points for boosting his business without compromising on his ideals.

Just to play devil's advocate, how much energy could be saved by closing all bank facilities and backend systems etc, in case they wouldn't be needed anymore?

Would BTC mining consume more or less energy then today's mainstream solutions?
Agreed. We're putting devices that needs to be highly secured, ideally network separated in the hands of normal people. People who either don't know that they should updated their routers, or simply don't care.

At the same time, IoT devices are being sold by companies who think that a 10 years support cycle is "a long time" and who frequently will drop support for devices when new models are released. The same companies often have terrible models for customer support.

I was at a presentation of Microsofts Azure Sphere OS. The presenter proudly proclaimed that they would have 10 year support cycle. Apparently I was the only one in the audience who felt that 10 years is at least 5 years short of what is needed.

The problem that most people have is not with how it feels, it's how unreliable it is with buttons failing or missing keystrokes. Sometimes only caused by a spec of dust.

Getting used to the feeling of the flatter keyboard isn't really an issue for most people.
In code the reason we don't do wholesale rewrites of complicated systems very often is because while there are bugs in the current system they're known quantities; going back to the drawing board and starting from scratch results in a newer, better, but unknown system with unknown bugs. That might be worse. It's a massive risk.

This is true for Apple's new keyboard too. We can't automatically assume it's better than the existing one, or that it has no issues. It's an unknown. For all we know a new keyboard might be even worse than the current one. Hopefully Apple will have learned from their mistakes but whether or not they've corrected all the problems or introduced new problems is something we can't know.

It's good that Apple appear to be listening and are trying to fix the problem (if that's the reason for the new keyboard) but I won't be rushing out to buy one for a while.

>> Apple is apparently set to ditch the butterfly mechanism used in MacBooks since 2015, which has been the root of reliability issues and its low-travel design has also not been popular with many Mac users.

Profitability issues due to replacements

>> Kuo says that Apple’s butterfly design was expensive to manufacture due to low yields. The new keyboard is still expected to cost more than an average laptop keyboard, but it should be cheaper than the butterfly components.

Do they count low yields at the factory, or do they include replacements due to defects?

Exactly. That's why I don't think the "social score" idea from China is so stupid after all.

I hate this egoistic, pseudo-individualistic lifestyle that is sold here in the west just because it helps people to feel like they'd really be free.

It's a big lie that "the capital" uses for marketing purposes and a common sense seems to be on the loss here.

Consequently we'll all suffer from this egoism if we don't find a solution in this century (perhaps even in the 1st half of it).

But this criticism is always dismissed quickly with the "communism club" that indoctrinated people who don't think for themselves love to use.

I, too, think there's a massive conflict in allowing the development agents and their inspectors to be simultaneously franchisees, but if this were to hit court, here's how his defense might play it out:

1) One man's "hit man" is another's "demand for rigorous quality standards".

2) Through years (decades?) of ownership, Mr. Patel has developed a keen sense of what constitutes a high-quality operation and a shop that's cutting corners on quality. His comments were just "suggestions" and "gut feeling" based on his experience being an operator.

3) While he ended up acquiring some of the restaurants, he didn't acquire all of the restaurants closing under his watch. Through his tremendous experience (see above), supplier connections and economies of scale peculiar to a large franchisee, he saw a potential to "clean up the act" under new management and keep the jobs in the community (insert a tear jerker story of some employee extremely happy about such outcome).
I understand your point about the responsibility of a democracy but I do worry about the tech, I would also be alarmed if someone developed a biological weapon to extinct humanity, even if the usage was controlled by a democratic mechanism. Just dont develop such dangerous technologies with no positive use case. Dangerous being the combination of efficiency and scale-ability.

The argument also assumes that we will continue have democratic systems and the population not voting for such systems to be implemented. The reality is what ever means and information we currently entrust to governments later versions will also have access to. Not to mention the export of these technologies to "friendly" dictatorships. Its the old problem of census data in the Netherlands. They had extremely detailed census data involving peoples religious beliefs before the Nazis invaded and with the data available the persecution of Jews was extremely efficient. The resistance targeted the locations of these datasets but it didnt work good enough.

I also dont see how international borders need anything more then fingerprints. They are also far more accurate and reliable. Facial recognition has the only added benefit of being usable without the effected people noticing. Thats not a positive characteristic.

To come back to the central argument, we do already have other means of identifying people and facial recognition only differs in a few core issues from existing mechanics. The core characteristics of facial recognition are

* No need for a cooperative, consenting subject

* Not alerting the subject being identified and no protection against being identified without noticing

* Unchangeable identification characteristic

We already have reliable easy to use systems for characteristic 1 and 3, fingerprints, and I see how there might be a need for such systems at specific locations. For example at a police station or border checkpoints.

Then we have facial recognition which is a lot less accurate and its only additional benefit is point 2. Point 2 however has no positive use cases, its a purely totalitarian instrument aimed at its scale-ability. For not only being used in specific places but everywhere. You cant even make the argument which makes nuclear weapons a worthwhile technology to have, the possible usage for war against a foreign aggressor. Facial recognition is only beneficial to keep a population suppressed.

> I mean "Known for sure; established beyond doubt".

OK!

> Yes. I've already said so. Consider re-reading my previous comment in light of my response "to avoid that confusion".

Well, possibly you have, just trying to avoid confusion.

Could you give one example of such a claim? (Yes, I understand you might already have mentioned one, I just want to be sure I am not misrepresenting you.)

> Agreed. Those conclusions have less basis, but our knowledge can wind up aligned with the truth without us being certain.

Exactly! But note: "less basis" does not mean "no basis". Also, just asserting certainty doesn't give you any more basis, only actually having justified certainty does. The fact that you might prefer absolute certainty for the basis of (some of) your beliefs does not mean it's something you can actually have.

> Then we are done with our conversation. If you can't be certain of anything, then all of logic is suspect.

Well, yes, of course it is!? Are you saying that you have never made what you now consider errors in your logical thinking, where you were convinced that you came to a conclusion through correct logical reasoning and later came to the conclusion that you were wrong about that?! And if that has happened to you (I mean, it happened in this thread, so I assume you will agree that it has happened to you?), then how would you distinguish logical conclusions or methods of logical reasoning that you are certain are correct from those that you currently are mistakenly convinced are correct? And if you you can't distinguish those, how would not all of logic be suspect, at least just enough to not justify labeling it as absolutely certain?

And maybe more importantly: How is that relevant to our conversation? Either we agree on some claim or argument or we don't, how does it make any difference whether either one of us is certain about it?!

> This flies in the face of a comment you've made previously in two ways, both regarding logic and your awareness:

I'd love to know more about the development timeline of this. When did Apple realise the butterfly switches were not salvagable?

My assumption is that Apple has a two year lead time for new models, so that they would have started working on this rumored 2019 Macbook Air in late 2017. At that point they must have realised that their updated butterfly switches from the July 2017 Macbook Pros still had reliability issues, so they started working on Macbooks with scissor switches. But since that would take 2 years, they had to do something in the mean time, and tried the silicone barrier to improve the situation with the 2018 models. When that still didn't help, they introduced their keyboard service program to avoid further hits to Macbook Pro sales.

Of course, that's all speculation, but I'd love to hear what the decisions were really like -- those must have been some very stressful meetings...
Most Journalists salaries are a pittance.
Interesting. My immediate thought was, "that's awesome", followed by a plan to implement it on my own website, which gets regularly scanned for vulnerabilities.

But then two questions sprang to mind:

1. Does this eventually get your domain marked as potentially harmful in Firefox/Chrome/other browser?

2. What happens if you're fronted by a CDN like Cloudflare? I mean, I assume nginx won't be screwed over by this but, even then, will it infuriate your CDN provider and put you at risk of getting your account shut down.

My fit of vengeful glee has therefore been somewhat ablated for the time being.
