I am going to go out on a very short limb and predict that Apple does no such thing in the foreseeable future, say 3 or 4 years. In the past, Apple has only transitioned to a new architecture once it was so powerful that it could easily emulate older hardware. Apple doesn't care about backwards compatibility as much as Microsoft on desktops but even they cannot release a new desktop/laptop that doesn't run existing software.

Although ARM processors are fast in certain benchmarks, they cannot compete with x86 for performance and certainly cannot emulate the instruction set at a speed users would find acceptable.

ARM makes great sense for low power devices and _maybe_ servers. Apple already makes tons of the former and seems uninterested in the later.

Consent requires no coercion, meaning that both parties are fully informed of all relevant information and both are in a legal capacity to do so. It is guaranteed that employees are not in a position to be fully informed because they will not have the same access to company information and employee resources.

The protestations are because it reads like the author only half-paid attention in Greek Mythology class and the writing is inane. Odysseus had left home to dutifully go to war (the Iliad) and was trying to get home (the Odyssey). Odysseus' goal in the Odyssey was to get home to reunite with his family and have one of his own. Any notions of a future career after he got home aren't central to the epic. The author sounds more like Jason, searching for the Golden Fleece, or perhaps on the quest for their Holy Grail than someone simply trying to return home.

Also, the examples used were not chosen or described by a sympathetic narrator so the writer comes off as the sanctimonious coworker who's silently judging everyone as being dumber or less-pious than he for daring to enjoy a company offsite. Don't accept a free $350 jacket if you don't want it, but if it's because you're too good for it and that anyone who accepts one is a "lotus-eater", don't be too surprised when that attitude doesn't win you any friends. It's not the (rejected) entitlement that's tone-deaf coming from the author, its the condemnation that we're all sheeple.

It's extremely fair to point out that life at a FAANG is lavish and certainly, there are some that have chosen to stay and enjoy a comfortable life there, rather than push themselves harder (elsewhere or while there). That the phrase "rest and vest" exists says that this practice is quite common.

Which post-quantum cryptosystems are more efficient than RSA?
From a pragmatic point of view I would actually expect it to be pretty common for games to sacrifice code quality. You build a game with a set end date, and do a small amount of maintenance on it moving forward. As opposed to an engine where it's a product you're building on and you want to grow over a much larger timeframe, and those unfamiliar with a piece of code are likely to maintain it down the road.

Marvin Minsky was accused of assaulting Virgina Guiffre. Virginia had been trafficked by Epstein starting when she was 15.

Sorry, I'm pernicious in what way, exactly?
There's obviously a lot more nuance to the situation. I'm here just posting my in-passing rambling, glossing over most details. In general, any mistakes made were clearly presented, and no numbers were deceivingly absent or misrepresented.

The accountant issue is related because there were a number of major issues that lead to the downfall. One being the entire year-long+ selling debacle, the other other was accounting issues.

FWIW, both brokers (2 deals on 1, 1 on another) both said "we've never seen anything like this in the entire time of doing this." I think a lot of it was just bad luck, or low quality buyers and not having experience to see certain red flags.

As far as insolvency so quickly, we were a 2 man company with 0 employees. I started the company several years ago with zero business experience and we grew it to 11 million per year. So there were many mistakes along the way (all of which were clearly laid out to potential buyers btw). We re-invested almost all our money to grow bigger and quickly.
“ps make sure my work gets paid this time so they can pay me to take an extended vacation”
I love the institute but I agree they really need to think hard about how it runs.

The past 30 years have been a continuous project in weaning the institute off being merely a very large government research lab.* IMHO this process has not been successful.

* with a small school bolted onto the side: the educational side of the institute is only 16% of the budget and is run at a small loss. This might explain their interest in Epstein.
The cctv footage existed, it has now been ‘accidentally deleted’.

In my example the sum of possible future allocations for ZFS is still only 10GB total. Each of the ten file systems, considered individually, does truthfully have 10GB available to it before any data is written. The difference is that with over-provisioning (like LVM+XFS), if I write 10GB of data to one file system the others will still report 10GB of free space, but with ZFS or BTRFS they'll report 0GB available, so I can never actually attempt to allocate 100GB of data.

You could build a pool-aware version of DF that reflects this, by grouping file systems in a pool together and reporting that the pool has 10GB available. But frankly there's not enough benefit to doing that because people with storage pools already understand summing up all the available space from df's output is not meaningful. Tools like zpool list and BTRFS's df equivalent already correctly report the total free space in the pool.

That's pretty cynical. Yes we had to enlist Stalin but I don't think anyone foresaw how bad he would be. Only that the current situation was dire. And we probably saved more people than we condemned.

And my point isn't that he wants peace. My point is the wealthy industrialists and plutocrats also want peace. Some of them make money off of war and would lobby for more war, but 100X as many make money off of peace and would oppose war.
> Men take for granted that we all are roughly the same shape.

I read this frequently, but it just seems flat wrong, I think men just have lower expectations about how clothes should fit, and there is less expectation that men stay slim. I’m trim and fit, and I can only buy from a couple of brands if I want clothes that fit me well without being skin tight. I’m not alone. There is a great variety of shoulder geometries for men, I remember hearing on JRE, but I can’t find a source to link, that their is a huge of amount of variation in men’s(everyone’s?) shoulders, probably due to Homo sapiens evolving to hunt with overhand thrown rocks. I could be flat wrong, but I detest this, “men’s bodies are mostly the same” attitude, you can definitely tell the difference between someone wearing a well tailored suit and someone who isn’t. I’m pretty sure men just have lower standards/expectations.

I feel like the actual change is not really Facebook PR but the reporting about it?
The TeenVogue affair seems to have caused a dam-break which shifted "reporting facebook as disfunctional" right into the middle of the Overton window all across the board regarding online media.

Facebooks strategy was always running away from a trail of PR bodies via sheer sized based on "customers" (which should be called products, to be honest) which did and do not care. I mean sure, this PR debacle is not a bath in glory by any means. But I can not think of any PR campaign in response to the countless past scandals which made me think "Wow, nice catch". At least in Germany, their response to the accusation of manipulating elections was a billboard campaign advertising that in Facebook you have a settings page where you can click switches and thus be in full control of your privacy (:D).

Was there ever any effective response to Zuckerberg abusing his company data to crack journalists accounts? I can even remember an age old thing where Facebook made all your posts visible forever on your board or something which was just drowned in the ongoing unchallenged growth of Facebook after some time...

To clarify, I am glad that media is finally elevating from lizard memes but I reject the notion that this current affair is the first visible crack of rotten foundations one could have observed.
I don't really have anything to add... But as a former professional Flash developed, and now nearly 10 years doing game dev (with Unity), I agree 100% with what you said.

It's not really about the language or about the Flash player itself. There was something special about the direct integration of the code and the visual design/animation tool with Flash. Nothing else really comes close these days. Nothing else allows such rapid development.

>Why can't they keep their room?

The basement is an upgrade. It's virtually a bachelor apartment (or a flat, for the Europeans reading), often with its own access, a private bathroom and often a kitchen or kitchenette. They're actually lux enough that they do very well on the rental market in busy cities.

For the child of the adult owners, it's a sort of independent-dependence. Some move down there while trying to save money for their own dwelling, which is probably the most often case, and others move down there, never strive for independence and become the stereotype talked about in this thread.
Is rape the only thing that companies should fire people for? A pattern of relationships like this is quite likely to be very bad for Google, both in terms of settlements and in terms of lost morale and acceptance of shitty behavior instead of working together on the great common project. The question isn't "forced" it's "why is firing the subordinate done instead of firing the habitual asshole when it's clearly in the companies interests to fire the habitual asshole." And the answer to that question makes it plausible that Google has been protecting bad people at the cost of their idealistic but achievable missions.

Also, she may have made that choice, but also he "got" her to quit - not sure if you've been in a relationship, but both things can be true. Someone can influence you to make a bad choice. The responsibility for that bad choice then exists in both people.

I think IDE tooling for Unison could pretty easily give you the exact same experience. Generate code from the AST, group it reasonably, and give you a view that is indistinguishable from a traditional source tree.

This didn't show anything in Safari or Firefox. Finally I tried Chrome and could see the SVG display.

It's pretty cool, but yeah, I don't see ever using this on desktop. It makes a whole lot more sense on mobile while you're out in the mountains and can see the scenery.

Regarding the AR apps:

In 2018 I downloaded both the PeakFinder and PeakVisor iOS apps while in Namche Bazaar during my EBC trek. PeakFinder's maps were much smaller and downloaded over bad wifi fairly quickly, whereas I never managed to download all of the PeakVisor maps while on the trek (it was several GB). But oddly, PeakFinder did not give me any more information than PeakVisor. So when a mountain label was missing in PeakVisor, PeakFinder wouldn't tell me either.

It's a pain to export photos from the PeakFinder app, so I did use it for a couple days on the way up to Lobuche, but not much after that.

The PeakVisor display was a lot nicer than PeakFinder's back then, so I preferred those photos and ended up using it exclusively. It looks like PeakFinder has better/shorter peak labels now, but still takes extra steps to export a photo, which is kind of a dealbreaker.

A nice thing about PeakFinder is that it still costs a fixed price for the app. If this is the only mountain AR app you use, it's worth it.

PeakVisor has transitioned to an IAP "Pro" subscription. Since I bought PeakVisor in 2018, they grandfathered my install with all the original features, with temporary free access to Pro features, so I can't tell what features are Pro or not, but it's super fancy now. If you're into hiking, then I suggest you give PeakVisor a try as well. (I have no affiliation.)

... because he had promised her financial support and if he also lost his job, that would go away.

And then he withdrew / refused support, that he'd agreed to, in writing.

> Women tend to choose jobs that pay less.

This is accurate, but not for the reasons you have given.

Think of it this way. Within a profession, say "lawyer", there are different career paths. One career path involves a lot of travel away from home, and one does not. Because traditionally women are expected to be home for children, women tend to more often select the path that involves staying at home more, which tends to also pay less.

So then, when you look at "lawyer", you see a pay gap, and then you dive in and see that the women have chosen the "lower paying job".

But that still doesn't account for the entire pay gap. It still leaves about 7% difference.

That last 7% is what people are concerned about. That women doing the same job with the same experience get about 7% less on average than men, depending on the field. In some fields (I believe medicine is one), there is no pay gap between women and men with equal experience (although there is still an opportunity gap, where men will be promoted more often with equal qualifications).

Then there is tech, where there is a pay gap between people with equal experience. I've seen this personally first-hand (but at least when the manager was called out on it he made it right and gave the woman a raise, but before being called out, it didn't even occur to him that he was making that decision).

> I have no idea why income HAS TO be distributed equally.

Because people doing the same work should get paid the same for doing it. And because you shouldn't be barred from a career for reasons that aren't related to the job (ie. your gender).

Given that women are 1/2 the population, and given the sample size, women and men should on average be making the same amount of money. But they aren't. And study after study show that the reason is bias against women, and not women's choices.

Don't you think that is something that should be changed?
