Content creators make plenty of Youtube, but it's spread out among millions of them which is why very few actually make any serious money. Also most content you wouldn't pay for, but will likely watch because it's free.

On the flip side, many creators have tried to go towards the subscription/patronage angle and far fewer are ever successful at that, with many making what amounts to a tiny trickle of supporting income while being burdened with much more responsibility to deliver. It's a hard bargain.
My take on the iPad form-factor hasn't really changed since the introduction. Its really great for certain casual use cases, but as soon as you sit down at a desk to get some work done, oh god does this fucking suck. And the keyboard cases actually make it worse because you delude yourself into thinking it makes it better, when it does not.

So an iOS/iPadOS laptop with full KVM support always seemed like a no-brainer in my mind. Or at least a much more obvious move than MacOS/ARM (which would split a small ecosystem behind the only logic that "they did it before and it worked out".) Plus 'the future' is obviously iOS.

I strongly prefer tethering to network awareness. Every computer I've had with a WWAN card has thought it would be terribly clever if all the sockets get reset every time the air interface flaps. It's network aware! Tethering is far superior because your laptop never learns that the mobile link was down for a moment.

> I think this is actually the exact problem the article talks about.

The article doesn't make it explicit, but I think that you have it backwards: the problem is that mindfulness is divorced from the Buddhist tradition. As an analogy, it's like the spread of corn as a staple without nixtamalization [1]. I.e. the surrounding context that Buddhism provides with other supporting and subsequent practices makes it more "stable".

[1] In the United States, European settlers did not always adopt the nixtamalization process, except in the case of hominy grits, though maize became a staple among the poor of the southern states. This led to endemic pellagra in poor populations throughout the southern US in the early 20th century

Amature hobby programmer here . . . yeah Im not going to do what the author suggested. I have no plans on working in the field. I dont care about functional programming or abstraction. I just see a task or project I think will be cool, google what language or framework best fits my goal and learn just enough to do that while using stacks and tutorials for those frequent times when I get stuck. Yes its slow but I dont care Im not on a deadline. I don't want to learn programming, I just recognize that it lets me do neat things and want to lean just enough to do whatever neat thing I have in mind. Its not about learning to program for me, and I assume for people like me. Its about wanting to accomplish a task and seeing programming as a necessay setp in accomplishing that task.
Blackmail indeed, although it may be a different phenomena; consider:

You need a laundry list of nutrients, and if your body is short of any one of them, it'll crave something that might have it. If it has it in insufficient density, it won't care that it needs to also get an extra 500 Kcal along for the ride - it needs to satisfy each item on the list.

I've seen this behavior in both cats and people -- feed them better quality food, and their cravings & weight go down as the full set of nutrients is found in fewer calories.

(Different topic, also very big on intermittent fasting, ensuring that there are frequent periods where the body recovers energy from fat stores)
The past cases are qualitatively different - an architecture switch to much more powerful processors with some degree of software backward compatibility provided. That's not yet a practical option.

> Probably. But I also don't think the discourse matter as much as it used to. It used to be that to have a voice you had to build something. So the discourse was meaningful as in reflected what was going to happen. Today everyone has a voice and therefor the discourse more reflects whatever people want it to be but not necessarily what happens. That is why we can discuss things seemingly forever while they largely remain the same.

You're not wrong, but I tend to disagree. I would say because everyone now has a voice, the nature of discourse is more important than ever. And if you look carefully, it tends to be full of delusional thinking. Black and white thinking about things that are extremely nuanced. Opinions stated as facts. Mind reading.

I would say the reason we can never get things done is because almost no one realizes they don't actually know very well what they're talking about. Such people are incredibly easy to divide and conquer.

> The really hard part is that the West has increasingly lost the narrative. So now we have to translate what China does to our own environment. We want the long term thinking, investment and development but not the authoritarianism.

Agreed. We used to be capable of it though. It seems to me figuring out how to regain that capability is to start to look very carefully at exactly what's going on, perhaps assembling a list of commonly believed or published "facts", that aren't actually facts. "It Ain’t What You Don’t Know That Gets You Into Trouble. It’s What You Know for Sure That Just Ain’t So."

> reality doesn't really care what people think or how things should be

Getting people to realize fundamental truths like this would be a good place to start. I suspect before too long, large amounts of people would start to realize how delusional current Western beliefs are, and then maybe we could finally start to get some change. But as long as everyone is still asleep, I think it's status quo as far as the eye can see, until we are bypassed by the rest of the world, or as you say resort once again to our old standby: war.

I think there's reason for hope, but not until we realize the problem.
> If you own a gun, you're responsible for knowing that pulling the lever implies shooting projectiles at them.

If you own a computer with the ability to send packets over TCP/IP, you're responsible for knowing what sending particular kinds of packets implies.

Hacking a server you don't own is handling someone's property without permission. When I host a web service, I grant the public permission for very particular kinds of access to it. I do not grant the public permission to try to break into it.

> All of these things are physical actions. The state should care about the physical actions of their citizens, but not about ideas, concepts, intent, or arbitrary abstractions. Those abstractions are the citizen's business, and legislating them is arbitrary and unfair.

Your understanding of the world is incompatible with centuries of civil, criminal code, as well as millenia of common sense.

Intent absolutely matters. Consider why mens rea is a thing. Consider why fraud is a thing. Consider the difference between accident, ignorance, and malice.

> If I have a mental breakdown every time someone says hello to me,

Are you seriously drawing an equivalence between breaking into a webserver with 'having a mental breakdown every time someone says hello'?

> Same principle applies to software. If your website has a breakdown every time I send specific IP packets, that's your problem, not mine or the state's.

Yes, you are. Good lord.

I take it you also don't take issue with people stealing the contents of vending machines, either? After all, there's no possible way to infer what the implied contract of a vending machine is! Sure, everyone with the intellectual maturity of a five year old understands that you're supposed to put money in, in exchange for its contents... But it's the owner's fault that if I happen to tilt it over a certain way, stuff comes out of it - without me putting any money in! I'm just manipulating it in a creative way!
Such a bad analysis. Switching CPU architecture has been done before in the macos ecosystem. And it has been successful.
I agree with everything except the idea that U.S. government oversight (not just in aviation) had been so wonderful and so fulsomely funded in the last few decades that it should have been trusted. At all. The 2008 economic crash - the largest robbery in the history of the world - was spawned by America's awful lack of governance and suffered by the whole world (with considerable blame also going to U.K., Iceland and a few more.) Which is just a single example of how obvious it is and was before 737-Max that oversight had long, long since jumped the shark in the U.S.
Confidence based upon comparison to others does not result in modesty. Confidence based upon continual self-work via the search for an aesthetics of existence creates modesty and a necessary humility in order to go a piece of the way with other ways of being in order to sort out what works in each context.
I’d still consider it a dark pattern, as you’re still operating hostile to the user; you’re trying to get done what the user explicitly does not wish.

And absent nanny-state reasoning (which is really hard to justify in the hands of a no-name dev..), you really are operating user-hostile, even if your intent was not; no better than microsoft forcefully updating your OS for your security, eventually regardless of what you were doing (see guy in middle of 8 hr render process)

Haha, and all the rest well said.
I glanced over at the Docker in Practice book on my nightstand and there is his name. Surreal.
Furthermore I predict that Apple won’t treat it like a transition, rather it will be a long term dual platform strategy. They’ll encourage developers to build fat binaries and have good x86 translation support in the interim.

But it’ll be long term, at least five years. Standard iMacs and MacBooks will be moved over to ARM quickly, higher-end iMacs and possibly some MBP SKUs a few years later, pro devices will stay Intel indefinitely.

The transition only needs to end if and when Apple can beat Intel/AMD for uncompromising high performance. Maybe that will happen, but until then, fat binaries are a perfect solution.
Well, it is a common anti pattern, in the way it’s usually used. A quick search on github for uses corroborates this.

Alternately, Apple could make a keyboard that doesn't trivially break. Then they wouldn't be under class action pressure to repair and replace them.

To whatever extent it's possible for an end user to "trigger" a failure covered under the extended warranty; it's 100% Apple's fault for making it the way they did. If the keyboards could be trivially swapped (say tool less) and cheaply produced then this would be far less of an issue.

It's a bad keyboard, but it's issues are made far far worse due to the lack of a serviceable design. Hopefully this experience of shooting themselves in the foot will make them reconsider repairable hardware.

Not who you responded to, but as someone who spent many years in education I find Caplan's case deeply unconvincing. Yes, education has a component of signaling, but he assigns far too much value to it.

I find the core of his argument rests on the assertion that we all went through school and don't think we learned much of value/it didn't help us. What he's actually describing here is a form of the curse of expertise. Humans are incredibly bad at remembering what it was like to not know things, it's why people make such atrocious teachers without training. But educators are actually helping to build valuable skills and complex mental models that would not arise naturally.

If you interact with homeschooled children of deeply incompetent parents or certain alternative schooling systems (Scientology schools mess their kids up) you can see what the alternative provides, and it's not pretty.
Regular pool, open two lanes, swim laps (up one lane, down the other). It's done with two lanes, so there is enough room to pass. I've seen it done this way several places.
n^th Fibonacci number requires O(n) bits. So, saying the solution is O(log(n)) is kinda not true. I mean there cannot be a o(n) algorithm for computing decimal representation of n^th fibonacci number.
Retail is a major source of employment in America for those without technical skills. The increase in automation at the checkstand are forcing people out of one of the few jobs they can get. I like automation, but we need to do something for the middle aged mom/dad who is not likely to ever be trained to be a coder or technician. It is time for a universal basic income. Or they could just thieve from the robots to make ends meet.

Mediation is exercise for the mind. One exercises the body to better control their bodily functions, like movements, breathing, heartbeat, etc. One meditates to develop better control of their thinking processes.

Mindfulness, concentration - these are just techniques to help you focus for extended periods of time, and make better decisions.

You can meditate to understand your way to escape samsara, to build a better software architecture, or to kill all humans.

Given enough practice, your mind functions in a permanently altered state, becoming more alert, focused, open, and elastic whenever you’re awake (though lucid dreaming is another potential kick some people chase). Now you can set goals, prioritise better, procrastinate less, rather than just cruising along. This gives you significant competitive edge over the rest of the population.

That’s what all the fuss is about.

Meditation can be exhausting, especially at the beginning - steering your thoughts is hard. So, importance of sleep is often one of the first things people very clearly realise when they try to consciously control their thought process.
Perhaps like the "Math co-processor" in the 386 days?

Imagine a future generation T-series chip with the neural cores that the A-series chips have. Accessible using the existing frameworks that you are already using. Or adding GPU cores to the MacBook Pro lineup as a replacement for the AMD GPUs that they have now.

And while they are doing that, they can release a Smart Keyboard for a future iPad Pro that has a trackpad. That's got to be one of the least risky ways to try out the iPad as a laptop replacement. If it's a flop, you're out the $150 or whatever it would cost but still have a perfectly good iPad that you keep using as an iPad.

Apple is in the position to take a "lets see where this takes us" approach. As long as they keep the OS and Frameworks from drifting apart, there are a lot of nice things that could happen.
>stealing is immoral
Can we chill with the lowkey racism? It's real privilege to not need to steal, to not have theft be a right of passage, to have the impulse control/foresight to not steal. It's kind of sick to say you're better than that, ignoring DNA privileges.
"...or shown to people with visual impairment"

It's not about being shown to people with visual impairment. It's so that images that you felt relevant to convey to your sighted audience can also be conveyed to your visually impaired audience.

I don't buy the permanent fork argument for one reason.

AMD had the cancelled ARM version of Zen. There aren't any public plans to bring it back as far as I'm aware.

But if Apple transitions past x86, it's going to provide critical mass for desktop ARM and the Zen chip will be back.

AMD would be sitting on the highest performance single socket ARM chip, and Apple would just use that.
As always, it depends on your computational model. People are awful at specifying a model, in other words it's unclear what's even being stated.

You can compute the nth fibonacci number in O(lg n) additions and multiplies. That indeed doesn't turn out to be a good model for how long it takes on an actual computer though.

> The irony of course being that the entire practise seems to have been commodified already, now we can all medidate with the premium subscription meditation app that wants us to get away from our subscription services.

What's wrong with that? I don't mind good stuff to be commodified (like food, housing, health care, transport). Also you don't need to use an app, but if it's a good way to do it - why not? Also2: not sure why would meditation apps want you to get rid of, say, Netflix.
Software deployment has definitely changed dramatically. Instead of including the software along with the hardware, or shipping cartridges/tapes/disks/CDs/flash drives, we can have software as a service. Infrastructure is now written as declarative code and tracked in distributed version control. You can spin up thousands of instances of some software in seconds.
There are rating agencies that verify both print and TV numbers with as much accuracy as possible, and Connected TV (streaming, smart tvs, netflix, etc) now have comparable metrics to website ads.

Those older mediums were also just inefficient and create a lot of wasted spend, whereas the internet has allowed far more businesses to start and thrive by lowering their customer acquisition costs. These companies would never survive if they had to still rely on older ad models.

> hunger is just another feeling

Personally, one of the first things I had to learn when starting IF is to be okay with hunger.

Then, I had to learn what was real hunger. Because of IF I don’t get hungry when I wake up in the morning anymore. But after a week on a holiday with breakfast as a norm, it’s as if my body expects food in the morning and gets hungry just because.

Took some time to reconcile what I experienced with what I was taught growing up, that hunger was bad.
Source? Grocery stores are a notoriously low-margin business.

When only one uses self checkout, that one sees increase profit. When everyone uses self-checkout, they lower prices to compete with each other; and not using self checkout becomes economically unviable unless you have something else to distinguish you from your competition.

The only way to access the soldered-in NAND storage is through the T2 chip, which encrypts everything on-the-fly with a unique burned-in AES key. The T2 also acts as the SSD controller, controlling the raw NAND chips. You can see this in an iMac Pro teardown, as the removeable "SSDs" in it only have flash chips on them, no controller.

The T2 is not involved with memory access AFAIK though. As for I/O, it does handle the audio and camera access.
