>By whose authority can these conceptions be labelled as misconceptions? If art is neither beautiful nor crafted or good in any way, and also has no meaning, it can be argued that it also has no intrinsic value.

All 3 can be violated and art can still have value.

Playful art might not have any meaning (and surely not any "deep meaning") but still be totally enjoyable (e.g. Louie Louie in rock terms).

Badly done/naive art might be perfectly meaningful and touching on the other hand.

Not beautiful looking art can also be very meaningful and touching. We don't just enjoy beauty, we can appreciate e.g. a terrible picture from a war even if it's not beautiful.

If it doesn't have any of those attributes? Beautiful, well crafted, meaningful? Well, it can still be perfectly enjoyable. There's no deep meaning in Japan Noise Rock, it doesn't take much craft, and it's certainly not what people would call beautiful to listen to.

But it can still be very touching, therapeutic even.
I never understood why Intel gave up on smartphone chips. I remember thinking at the time how that would bite them in the next 10 years.

I had an ASUS ZenFone 2 powered by Intel. It was fantastic! I didn’t notice any problems or major slowness compared to a Qualcomm chip. To me it seemed like they had a competent product they could iterate on. And they just canceled the program, how short-sighted!

I mean, maybe I’m wrong here and there isn’t really money in that business.
Not that these Apple chips will run x86 or x64 code. Unless they bother with a Rosetta 2.0 then gaming is out of the question if Apple makes this jump.

Andy Grove goes into the flip to horizontal integration at length in Only the Paranoid Survive. He also touches on it in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfU2Qu4MzZk

There's something of a shift back to more vertical integration but:

-- As another commenter mentioned, there's simultaneously been something of a split between chip design and fabs

-- The big public cloud providers probably make a stronger case for a return to vertical integration than Apple does

-- For the most part, any vertical integration today is taking place in the context of both global supply chains and standards. You don't have every company using their own networking protocols and disk drive interconnects.
If you die waiting, the fact that it's free doesn't offer much solace.

> Mostly, it means apps will need to be re-compiled for the new CPU architecture. For a while now, apps uploaded to the Mac App store are uploaded in an intermediate representation, so the final compilation to the specific architecture happens on Apple's servers. This puts Apple in a place where they can launch a new computer with an ARM CPU, and (ideally) all apps on the Mac App Store will "just work"TM out of the box. And they can know whether that will be the case before the launch, maybe even reach out to developers to solve issues ahead of time.

That sounds like an absolute nightmare. Imagine having to track down a bug that only appears after your program has gone through cross compilation on Apple's servers.

In its consumer operating systems, MS used to not consider it a bug for a process to exploit other processes on the same machine. After all, why would you be running untrusted code?

I'd also add that Microsoft used to be notoriously bad at security, such that even Mac owners would make fun of them. We're still dealing with the design decisions made during that era. It's only since XP SP1 that security was taken more seriously and it wasn't until Vista that they truly started to grapple with the whole mess from the ground up.
> My view is that people here are far too trusting of those in authority, and in particular counter-terrorist police and security services personnel.

I always though "brainwashed by TV" was an exaggeration. But the more I discuss with people, the more I realize they think the police/hospital/army/court works like on TV.

E.G: they expect that if there is a murder, an NCIS like team with try to find the murderer, or if they get strange like disease, some Dr House will be assigned to find the solution, or that judge are impartial and mayors are competent to deal with the solutions their city require. The reality is that people are average human being with limited resources everywhere. They are lazy, have ego, have a small budget, are tired, have an agenda, have bosses and politics, etc.

"authority, and in particular counter-terrorist police and security services personnel" is no different.
To be fair, that was a pretty brief moment in cell phones.

Yeah, I had a Nokia in the mid-late 90s that would go for days without a charge, but

- We didn't talk on them that much back then; and
- The phone was just a phone.

The difference as I understood it was the newer digital signal tech instead of legacy AMPS. At the same time, service costs dropped dramatically -- AT&T introduced the "OneRate" plan on the back of one of these phones, and for me personally that reduced my cell bill by like 65-75%.

But the phone didn't do anything but talk. I guess we could text, but my friends & coworkers & I didn't do much texting until we got phones with keyboards after the turn of the century.

Anyway, the "insane battery life" era was short (because we all went to more power-hungry PDA-type devices pretty quickly, from Palm or Blackberry on (ugh) WinMo). The Nokias got broad acceptance around 97 or so, but by 2002 we were all chasing PDAs.

The other thing is that the "insane battery life" we remember is a little bit false, because we only asked those devices to make calls. Now, we get a full day's usage out of a smartphone that we're touching constantly. In real terms, we're getting more usage per charge, I suspect.
What do you mean? I'm assuming that this is a Snap Store feature?

My concern is really more about the command-line, as that's how I (and probably most technical users) install packages.

re lawsuits, I advocate a specialized healthcare court for adjudicating those cases.

Our current system of legal precedent does not recognize progress of science. So we end up with nonsense like unnecessary c-sections for decades because a jury of laypersons determined vaginal births increases cerebral palsy.

We already have separate specialized courts. Bankruptcy, youth, etc. My local judges have innovated by creating separate courts for vets, addicts, and so forth. Much more fair, efficient, and effective.

I say that in reference to the type of job I like, not in the sense that I'm anti-social. Those jobs just never appealed to me. I've always worked with people who did those jobs, but they made it sound like you are constantly at the customers mercy. I always hated doing that type of work in like early retail stuff because I don't like the customer at my neck. I don't work well under pressure that way because I feel I can be overly objective in those scenarios.

I like programming and skill based roles. I like to come to as a resource and someone who is competent. I don't like being some faux salesman with no skills except how to talk to people. That doesn't have a realistic value to me and I can't drive myself to get better at...nothing.

>> "MMT relies heavily on the fact that tracing back who is paying for it is so convoluted that its backers can claim nobody is"
> I don't know what that means.

Lets jump over the the Wiki page on MMT where it has a helpful comparison to Keynesian economics [0]. First line in that table:

Keynesian: Advocates taxation and issuing bonds (debt) as preferred methods for funding government spending.

MMT: Emphasizes that taxation and debt issuance are not required to fund spending.

Under the Keynesian model I can tell who is paying for government activity - taxpayers and lenders. I can also work out how much, by comparing how much tax they pay or how much they lend. It is reasonably transparent about who the government is distributing resources away from (net taxpayers, current lenders) and towards (net tax receivers, people who are enjoying the latter stages of a bond where the interest is payed back). People could have claimed resources; then they were taxed/saved so they didn't.

How do I do that under the MMT model where neither of those things are necessary? Who is the government distributing resources away from? How do I figure that out? I know where they are going. Where do they come from? When we debate MMT inspired ideas, how will we figure out who will be worse off in real terms and in what proportion?

[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_Monetary_Theory#Compari...

PS.

> But MMT it's not a policy, but a model

People aren't interested in MMT because it is a neat model; but because if we use that model then it becomes very hard to explain that policies are wasteful uses of time and stuff. It is very easy to make a taxpayer understand why government waste is bad. Quite hard to make people take an interest when nobody knows if they are net givers or takers.

I'm a little confused. You think because the system was not overwhelmed, the US locked down too early? The point of the lockdown was to prevent getting overwhelmed, which appears to have mostly worked.

I guess I'm having hard time understanding the logic where since the system wasn't overwhelmed with a lockdown in place, there was no need for a lockdown.
> It's worth pointing out how extremely far ahead Apple seems to be in terms of CPU power and efficiency.

Honestly, I'm not convinced they're THAT far ahead. They don't have a lot of the legacy baggage Intel has to contend with, and they're the only company making high end ARM chips (besides Amazon and a few other weird server implementations), but being able to match big core i7s in some benchmarks single threaded is to a large extent something that Intel's own low power chips can also do, at least burstily.

There are a lot of challenges to big many-cored chips beyond single-core performance, and we really don't know where they are with that yet, as there are no publicly-available examples of Apple desktop chips.
It gives us context and a lot more information to help answer the question - I think it's perfectly reasonable to ask if he's considered it.
Not necessarily. Firefox has its own set of protections and even introduced a new language (Rust) to deal with common security vulnerabilities without sacrifising speed.

But the takeaway from this post is more that perfect safety is difficult / impossible to achieve.
Absolutely agreed with that. The key is they insist and hence they failed in the desktop to fight WinTel, then they go to try non-Desktop. iPod, iPhone, iPad etc. The MAC is left abandon quite awhile. And I am not sure it is still a big business enough for them.
> The applications get sandboxed and there is much less risk to mess up your system.

Apparently snaps are also sandboxed between versions of the same application. My very first experience of snaps was Vuze getting updated overnight and all my configuration and torrents just vanising.

I ended up rolling back the version (to restore everything that disappeared) and, upon discovering snaps are designed to never be able to lock a version number, shot it in the head by killing the daemon and chmod'ing its executables to not be executable.

I assume Vuze's snap was misconfigured, but it really turned me off of them and I've since decided to stick to nix instead of snap whenever I can.

>I suspect that would still have happened if the 68k (or Z8000, NS32000, etc) had won the war instead of the x86.

I think that is probably correct. The economics of "commodity" microprocessors were such that one (or two) would have probably won had the x86 not.

Hey, a motorist who sees you and gives you grief is many times less likely to kill you then one who simply doesnt see you. Grief from motorists is good when ure a cyclist (not optimal, but good) Being visible to motorists is the #1 thing u can do to be safer.
You just cycle wherever and however is physically safest, the road laws and regulations are not designed to keep you safe, they're designed for motorists to be able zoom around wherever they want unimpeded by anything. The only law you should be concerned about are the laws of physics.

Really though, unless you're writing x86 assembly, any language should be just fine on ARM. The only potential holdp is is you rely on precompiled binaries at some point. Otherwise it should just be a matter of hitting the compile button again.
Perhaps start a small business, get a DUNNs number and separate AppleID, and enroll that way. If the app is going to be making money this may be what you want in the long run.

Also, I'm a bit skeptical how you aren't enrolled already. Apple doesn't make it easy to develop and run apps on hardware until you're enrolled. They require certs + provisions tied to the registered AppID to run any apps on hardware. But it's also been awhile since I've developed without a developer enrolled AppleID.
I think if you consider them as optional characteristics then it is easier to find Art that is not beautiful or well crafted, and/or has no meaning. For example pretty much all textile or pattern design is devoid of meaning yet some of it falls into the Art category.

I believe many artists want to create work that enriches people's lives and they disappear from society (or the art world) in order to limit their exposure to pompous rambling.

Currently I have an iPhone 6. I considered going to an iPhone 11 in the next few months until the iPhone SE was announced.

I like that the SE can fit in my pocket as easily as my current phone. The price is also attractive, although I tend to keep phones until they become too slow and battery life becomes an issue.

However, I'm frustrated constantly by typing on it. Just typing a couple of sentences in a text message can take minutes. (I'm a 60 wpm touch typist on a standard keyboard.) It's become so bad that I'm moving back to a laptop for most communication. My phone is coming close to a read-only device.

Is the 11's size enough help for typing that it's worth the price?

If so, does it fit in your pocket, i.e. how do you keep it on you?
