It's great and impressive how quick Gitlab moves in adding new features.

But if I have a Graphic Design repo it emphasises Kubernetes, Packages and Security features that have zero relevance. And there is no way to disable them.

And that on every single repo it places these Add License/Contributors etc buttons front and centre even though for 99% of internal projects they serve no purpose.

Every release Gitlab seriously needs to step back and think about how to simplify the interface. Because it's starting to get a bit ridiculous.
The modern-day equivalent of the "7-lines of code" is the stripped down, client-side only integration at:

tl;dr, click on the stripe website a bunch, then copy and paste the generated html+js (which includes your api key, so you, the user don't have to mess with that) into your own website.

This is true, it might just be virtualizing ARM, I think I just assumed it was x86 emulation based on the context.
interesting.
I'd love to give the new macOS a try, but I don't have any apple hardware. Does anyone know the process for downloading the macOS .iso so I can bring it up under VMWare?
Yup for sure. I (generally) see two camps on the remote work debate:

- WFH / unlimited remote work is the future, forcing people to come into the office is oppressive.

- Remote work harms culture and collaboration, we all need to get back into the office ASAP as we can't be effective remotely.

Overall I've just been surprised at the intensity of the remote work discussion, and surprised that we don't see deeper analyses on cost of rent, employee retention rates, productivity across jobs, environmental effects of less commuters, etc. My point was simply that as this topic elicits strong feelings, it presents an interesting leadership challenge.
Whoa, I missed that! Thanks.
Did anyone.. "lose" them? :D
You're probably aware, but just in case: old.reddit.com gives the old (js-free) interface.
Yes, the page infinitely navigates back to itself resulting in a whole page refresh.
Because even though it's supposed to be about developers, every news site and tech blog is listening in as well. These bits and pieces are for them, because everyone wants to be ahead of the game. They are just throwing a bone to scavengers keep them in the press and in front of people's eyeballs.
How do people get funding for nothing-apps? If anything that's evidence that being on the inside is what matters.

I was at a restaurant this Saturday and they had a QR code on the table for a menu. It was great and delighted the group.

App Clips would also let me seamlessly "retain my identity". I can just order quickly, and pay instantly. No extra details needed from me. Fast, easy, and private!
> why they didn't just drop the `10.`

Because they know their chickens - or rather their frogs.

Mac users are their loudest and most conservative customer sector, and have feared for years that OSX was going to be effectively taken over by iOS. Any big move would have had to face a wave of negative comments and would risk going down in flames. So instead they take things one step at a time - tweak here, tweak there, common icons, common services, Catalyst, we drop an X this year and major rev next year...

The jump you mention will inevitably happen, because in practice it has already happened internally with the yearly matched-release cycle. I predict sometime in the next few years you will have iOS NN + ipadOS NN + macOS NN released at the same time. It makes sense. It just couldn't be done right now because the priority is to keep existing Mac users on board. Frogs must be boiled slowly.
Amen, that drives me insane.
"In addition, many feel (probably with some justification) that there's a real opportunity at the moment to influence policies that favor their personal preferences. And you won't influence if you don't take a strong stand."

This is a great point, and that's exactly what makes this an interesting leadership challenge IMO.
> Is everyone insane or is there something I'm missing.

You're missing something. They're not insane, and neither are you.

Imagine you've loved a certain musician your entire life and you could pay them to sing a song with your name in it.

Or, imagine you and your spouse saw a certain movie on your first date, and you think it would be funny and thoughtful to have one of the actors (or characters) from that movie wish your spouse a happy birthday.

Or, imagine you have followed a sports team for years and have the opportunity to talk to one of the stars.

There is nothing strange or new about celebrity. Touching fame is interesting and exciting to people. There are celebrities who are genuinely meaningful to people -- maybe their work helped get through a tough time.

You don't have to understand it, but it's not hurting anyone, so there's nothing insane about it. It's just a form of personalized entertainment.
> or because they simply didn't get it to work yet

Based on how poorly every other Windows on Arm experiment has gone, I'm guessing Apple is not willing to officially sanction bootcamp (yet).
Really, no one? that's a bold claim.
> It needs to be strong enough to handle the full acceleration of the engines.

I don't think we can expect to have high accelerations with NTRs anyway, so I don't think it'd need to be particularly robust. Also, propellant tank walls can be structural elements here too. If a foldable structure isn't practical, we could just assemble it from rigid elements lofted on other launches.
And likely keep all the money too, assuming the contract is void and is not transferred to Facebook. Double dipping!
I meant that we’ve already got Parallels Desktop. I didn’t understand whether they want to introduce something like Hyper-V/WSL on macOS.
> It was the only option for those writing native apps to have a platform that could legally run all of your tooling if you shipped Mac/Windows/Linux.

Sure, but the number of people writing cross platform apps is a small fraction of the number of web developers out there.
JBP is absolutely off wrt Post-Modernism. He keeps quoting Hicks' books on Postmodernism which must be dismissed as fraud[1]. (Hicks himself presents his book on white supremacist Stefan Molyeux's podcast[2]).

my problem with JBP is that he presents his ideas as facts but they are nothing more than pseudo science and cherry picking to fit his narrative (e.g. he hasn't really understood the Jungian archetypes and keeps waffling on about it with great confidence). He seems to fit very well into Alan Sokal's definition of the "intellectual imposter". (the irony here is that Sokal himself hasn't understood postmodernism lol)

Lots of extra padding everywhere which makes me think a touchscreen Mac is coming out soon. The extra padding is out of character for Apple designs unless they need the space for your fingers to not mash more than one item at a time.
Money is a bonus but the part a big time celebrity cares about is getting their face out there and look like they are relatable and nice people. Helps when they have a new project.

I would agree with that, if we lived in the futuristic utopian society of Star Trek:TNG. But our world appears to be closer to a cyberpunk dystopia, where you can't trust the powers-that-be to use that kind of technology for good, peaceful, and just ends. Instead, they'll use it to advance their own greed and hate fueled agendas, and to perpetuate existing structural biases.
...and also how to avoid the media talking about it.
But then they couldn't make you buy an iPad and a Mac.
I thought Mixer would've been a home run if they integrate it into the new xbox's dashboard. Guess it's company infighting that killed it.
A few things to note about Apple & Apple users:

1 - Apple doesn't focus on "first". More often, they are usually focused on a better integration of something than being first. Obvious exceptions include things like 64-bit phone chips, but usually not first.

2 - most Apple users (note that I am saying users, and not developers or power users) prefer it that way. They prefer simplicity over raw power - sort of the revers of a linux command line user.

3 - Even the power users tend to like something that keeps them in the Apple camp. For me, it's the ecosystem an approach to privacy and security - I can help my parents be safe easier on an iPhone/iPad/etc than I could on an Android phone.

4 - For many (most?) people, the apple email app is better than most alternatives. Personally I run gmail, outlook, and apple, and prefer Apple in most situations (not all, but most). Think of this as "I can't believe that Lexus doesn't have an electric car yet" - most Lexus users don't really care because they are happy with the product as is. Would some subset prefer it? sure, but not enough to outweigh the reasons they bought the Lexus in the first place.

5 - I'm not an Android user, but I agree - it is a funny headline in 2020.
I wouldn't say that's ideal because it's predicated on seeing & using the lockscreen, which is itself not ideal.

Ideal is the device is instantly unlocked when I pick it up - which is also the reality I have as an Android user, but you can experience this on iOS as well with jailbreak mods. And with widgets it's then zero swipes to get to my lightbulb controls, which is just sweet.

Everyone and their dog has known that Apple uses Gorilla glass on their devices since the original iPhone. I believe it was only until recently (this year) that Apple executives acknowledged the relationship in any capacity (one of their SVP visited the Gorilla Glass factory with press)
Are Rust macros at all comparable to Lisp macros? Can you re-write the syntax of Rust with Rust macros? Or are they more like C/C++ macros?
On the contrary, I'm tempted to buy the latest Intel Macbook Pro so I can stick with Intel for a few more years. Whether or not I'll end up doing so depends a lot on how good the new ARM-based laptops are in terms of performance (esp. wrt virtualizing x86/x64 VMs). But the current lineup, however imperfect, is mature and a known quantity, in contrast to the unknowns surrounding the first generation of machines with the new architecture.

Is there a reason why Apple updates their Mac apps with each OS release, instead of individually through the app store?

I would imagine the changes to Safari could've been made without having to upgrade the OS.
Apple transitions CPU architectures every 10-15 years.

6502 -> 68k in 1984 via hard-cutover [edit: see cestith's reply, there's more to this story than I knew]

68k -> PPC in 1994 via emulation

PPC -> x86 in 2006 via Rosetta JIT translation

x86 -> ARM in 2020 via Rosetta 2 static recompilation

You could even argue the transition from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X was a transition of similar magnitude (although solely on PowerPC processors), with Classic Environment running a full Mac OS 9 instance [1]

One word why I think this will work out well: money.

I can see FB/MS tapping into deep pockets to offer some top streamers a great deal to move platforms. If they get enough of them to move and the service is stable, intuitive and fun to be on then I can see FB doing well.

FB knows how to build communities, they know how to build engaging content and how to run that type of business. I would bet on them figuring out how to leverage their subject matter expertise on that side house to bring a very good product offering in this new vertical.

There’s an ecosystem there that they can tap into as well, marketplace, pages, etc that if they can pull it off, could make it a very lucrative all-in-one solution for the streamers.
The question is will I be able to install Debian on it? Is the bootloader going to be locked like iPhones? Is the ISA going to be different from Aarch64 on commodity ARM boards? Will the only supported compiler be Apple LLVM?
On that note, I encourage everyone to read more PKD in general. You can't go (too) wrong reading any of his stuff. Valis is pretty f'in weird, but still harmless. I think.
So-called Black Lives Matter costs black lives by making policing less effective. The "Ferguson Effect" has been documented. Recent headline: "104 shot, 14 fatally, over Father’s Day weekend in Chicago" https://chicago.suntimes.com/crime/2020/6/20/21297470/chicag... .
but the two things are inextricably tied - intel's open platform resulted in their financial performance to a hugely meaningful degree, and the same with apple's strategy vs. their performance. obviously it's not apples to apples in any number of ways, but apple's strategic decision to operate as a closed platform empowers many of the things they see as key to their performance. i understand what you meant, but i don't think apple views that as a goal they should pursue.
For sure this thread was a poor place to change the subject in that way and the commenter should not have started a flamewar (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23605490). But crossing into personal attack is also a big step in the wrong direction, and also toxic. Please don't do that on HN, regardless of how wrong another user is or you feel they are. It only contributes to destroying this place further. There's also something to be said about not responding to a mention of suicide by aggressively hammering a person.

Web Scraping with Prolog
I did web development for a few years, and I think that technology is approaching the end of its lifespan. Google did Flutter, and in the last couple of months I've been learning Swift and SwiftUI instead.

I think one of the reasons web apps were so popular is that competing platforms didn't have declarative layout, installation was difficult, and programming in C++ or Java is harder than Swift or Javascript.

In each of those areas, Apple now has a good-enough story (SwiftUI, App Store, Swift), and I think there's no reason for me to bother with web apps anymore.
That wasn't their first processor change, either. Not even was it first in the Mac line.

The Apple I and II were MOS 6502 machines except for the Apple IIgs which was a 65c816. Then the early Macs were 680x0 machines. Then PowerPC. Then Intel.

They looked at Intel chips for the iPhone and settled on Arm before launch. I wouldn't be surprised if some very brittle, early development version of iOS was running on an Intel mobile platform at some point.
No it's not less dependency on 3rd parties, it's more dependency on TSMC. Before they were able to play Intel vs TSMC, it's not the case anymore. Then you add the geopolitical issue of Taiwan vs China and the risks level keep increasing.
And your evidence for this claim is... what?
I used to subscribe to Mac Addict. Now, I yawn. Why? It has nothing to do with the tech. It has to do with the monopolistic business tactics.

> and will push each to the extreme to create better experiences for our users and reimagine what the web can become.

OMG. For this 'better experience' and 'reimagining what the web can become' did you bother to ask the users you pretend to cater for? No?

Listen carefully: the only experience I want from any website is to get to it, get the info I want, then I fuck off sharpish. I do not want 'experience' or any bloody 'reimagining' thank you. I have work to do.
Agreed on all points.

I saw speculation elsewhere that this change, along with AWS's addition of Graviton-based (their own ARM processors) instances at much more competitive price points relative to x86, are bound to spearhead the change to "ARM by default."

If your devs are already using ARM, and ARM's notably cheaper in the cloud, that's a compelling case. If you're already using Kubernetes / Docker heavily, you're probably already 80% of the way there. Linuxes that aren't supporting ARM as a "first class citizen" will soon, and undoubtedly that will be a speed bump at worst.

I'm interested to see the specs relative to the x86 Macs, but the only open question to me was whether or not we'd see the x86 emulation layer. Well, we did, and it may not be perfect but it certainly looks like they put a lot of effort into it. If it works as well as it looks, I think this transition is borderline inevitable. I think I've bought my last x86 hardware.
I DJ'd and promoted raves for close to 10 years. I'm extremely familiar with it's good and bad sides. The happiness that MDMA makes you feel is as illusory as any other emotion is.
Rumors are they were offered double the initial offer to come to Facebook, but they both declined and forced Mixer to cash them out.
All the rumors about MSFT cashing them out seem highly unlikely. They definitely got money but not all of it. If they got all of it, then MSFT lawyers are probably the shittiest lawyers in human history (and Ninja’s/Shroud’s the best).

I can see Facebook trying to lure them with similar contracts but I think that’s just part of the stupidity of trying to dominate in this space.

I’m gonna assume that they signed agreements where they were only getting paid the bulk based on performance numbers tied to their presence in Mixer.

So it’s clear that their brands didn’t do shit for Mixer, and now Twitch knows this so they lost any leverage they could have. But they probably are going back to Twitch because they can get way more distribution and keep building their audience. They just won’t get the same benefits they got with those exclusivity deals.

Those streamers are clearly the biggest losers here.

I wouldn't pay $5,000 for a celebrity message but I paid $50 for an actor who played a minor Game of Thrones character for a birthday message for my dad (a GoT fan) that will be delivered along with a 3D printed brass polished Hand of the King pin. It's just a really fun way to create a personalized gift for someone close to me, which is important because I have a really hard time coming up with meaningful gifts - it's usually just easier to throw money at it, and the personalized celebrity message is more meaningful with the same amount of effort.

The specific service I used sends the money to the charity of the celebrity's choice (which they display before you buy) and no one will see the message except my family. I think the wedding example is just a little more public than how people normally use these things. This is the first time I've heard of them charging four figures but no surprise.
At what distance is radioactivity no longer an issue? The engine could be attached to payload at a longer distance with relatively lightweight structures. It doesn't have to be designed to stand up to the stress of launch/land with a payload. Just to ferry between points in space.

Nice UI updates, but I'm still surprised they haven't adapted Xcode's UX to be more in-line with other popular code editors (Intellij, Eclipse, Sublime, VSCode, Visual Studio, Atom). It's a radical departure from all of those. It feels like NIH syndrome applied to UX (and maybe a bit of "we've always had this UX, why change?" pride).

That's like telling someone planning on getting their driver's license to watch The Fast and the Furious as if it has any relation to actual driving anyone encounters.
I'm too old for this. That's great. But what's more important to me is:

- Apple being hostile to developers: app approvals (Hey)

- Apple hardware being hard or impossible to upgrade

- MacOS turning into iOS (don't want)
Every single human holding a responsibility at any level gets blame all the time. There is nothing wrong with that, nor with making mistakes, and it is a fact of life.

Engineering processes are orthogonal to that.
I mean, there's nothing too magical about boot camp—even if apple removed all support for it from macOS, you can probably install windows on a partition the normal way without too much trouble. I think the only thing that might break is if Windows stopped being compatible with the Mac hardware drivers, and Apple didn't update them.
