How about actual offices? You know, rooms with walls and doors.

My yearly salary could build a comfortable home for a family of 4 every single year in some of the cheaper places in this country, I'm pretty sure my company laptop at several of my employers has retailed > $4000, yet 4 feet of desk space and a chair that seemed to have lived a hard life on the streets has been my most common accommodation. Surely an office and a parking space for every employee isn't an impossibility. And if it is then you can't afford to be in the market you're trying to operate in.

I can guarantee that I would have been a happier more productive employee if I were given a private space, near colleagues but by default separated from them away from home.

Growing up on hundreds of acres where the nearest human was often more than a mile away, having the experience of daily being obligated to board public transit for 90 minutes and then spend 8 hours in an open office in the middle of a downtown area was subtly but deeply unsettling. Being constantly so far away from the ability to have any private space or space which was mine in any way, and worse the only way to get to a space which was was by being jostled on a packed train for up to two hours was simply bad for my mental health.

I'd imagine it's sunlight / artificial light + growth to harvest time. It takes energy input to make food calories, there's really no getting around it with technology. The only way to increase the calories in the harvested food is intense direct light in a short time, or less intense (shaded) light over a longer time. In vertical farms, that's a higher cost of production.
A lot of people don’t understand design as something that goes beyond the surface layer, though. They see that someone picked a pleasing color palette and layout, but maybe they don’t imagine that a designer would come and tell them to stop using modals.

Acorn were indeed way ahead of their time. Especially when it came to flunking software projects. They had the hardware done but the OS was a quick hack job because their proper OS (ARX) was late. So they ported MOS from the BBC series and threw a GUI on top. And it initially sucked terribly. I was there for it.

I bought a fully stacked A440 when they were released, many thanks to the kindness of a deceased relative and much to the dismay of it mother who said I should have bought history books and art materials instead.

Really if they had something RISC OS 2 quality on day one, which would have been a monumental feat like the hardware was they’d have done better. I enjoyed every moment of using the machine after RISC OS 2 came out. Before that I was slightly scared I’d burned a monumental amount of money.

It's pretty hard to get a computer to do what you want. You're at the mercy of whatever software is installed, and most of this software is "stupidity-amplifying" rather than "intelligence-amplifying" -- especially the software that an untrained person is able to pick up and use for their own purposes.
I totally agree about "Finder" - a better name might have been "Loser" - since it's only good at making you lose things.

I switched from Windows to Mac about 6 years ago - because I needed an all-in-one system that could compile iOS, Android and UWP apps. However even 6 years later I still have problems with Finder - big problems - it just doesn't behave at all how I expect. I often find myself using Windows Explorer (in my Parallels VM) to navigate the file system because it is just so much easier and predictable.
At some point in a previous company we had a lot of individual VPSes set up basically the same way. I was sick of internal documentation that listed step-by-step commands intertwined with descriptions and manual actions, and any attempt at puppet or ansible just blew up because it was something else to learn by the team (believe me, I tried, it just wouldn't stick with anyone).

So I created `apply`[0].

This small bash thing pushes bash scripts called 'units' through ssh to execute through an uploaded 'run' script:

./push units/update units/sshd units/ssh_authorized_keys root@foo.example.com

By writing those 'unit' scripts to be idempotent you can just run them again and again. 'units' can be aggregated in 'groups', which can themselves reference 'groups':

./push groups/base groups/ruby units/dockerd root@foo.example.com

Finally, you can define 'hosts', which are like 'groups', only they save you some typing, which it could do in sequence or parallel:

./apply hosts/foo.example.com hosts/bar.example.com

And since units/, groups/, and hosts/, are just directories and files, autocompletion works immediately and you could get creative with shell expansion for arguments.

It was a deceptively simple experience, immediately accessible, trivially enabled literate coding, and overall extremely useful both to set up and maintain those VPSes as well as creating dev environments, or local VMs to test a e.g one-shot unit performing a change or migration.

Doing a search by laptop spec [1], there is exactly one laptop model, the Lenovo Legion Y740S-15IMH [2] that has an i7-10875H CPU, a 4K display, and no dGPU. Sadly, it seems to have pretty limited region availability so far (see the PSREF listing to check).

If you're willing to forgo the 4K display (a 15.6" 1080P screen at 24" is >60ppd, so it should be close to a "retina" display [3]) then you might have another option (the one I've been looking at). The latest AMD 4800H processors perform neck and neck with the i7-10875H (with much better power/perf) [4] and there's one ODM, Tongfang, that has a Renoir refresh (model PF5NU1G) that looks like it might be the best option available this generation (I'm looking for much the same thing as you - the highest CPU power possible, no dGPU for better battery life and less Linux hassle). It's using the same (1.5kg 15") chassis as their older Picasso model (see the Schenker VIA 15 NBC review for a good overview [5]) but with some notable improvements:

* Improved dual fan, dual heat pipe cooling means it can boost to 65W and sustain 54W CPU performance

* Dual channel, dual DDR4-3200 SODIMM slots (but the tradeoff is now only 1 M.2 slot)

* slight display upgrade from N156HCE-EN1 [6] to a NV156FHM-N67 [7] - matte, 300nit, 100% sRGB, dE<2, 1000:1 contrast ratio FHD screen w/ DC (not PWM) dimming

* USB-C PD (Power Delivery) support added, but no DP (DisplayPort alt mode); but has HDMI 2.0 support for a single 4K@60 external output

It's currently on-sale already in China as the Mechrevo Code 01 for ~$750 [8] and is supposed to be coming to Schenker/Tuxedo soon (lots of technical details and an interesting discussion in DE here [9]). Eluktronics should be bringing it to the US soon as well [10]. I'd expect a price point of around 1000 USD/EUR.

>Now, if only we could convince Toady to work on multithreading ....

I have thought about this problem mostly because Minecraft runs like shit when you overload it with 300 mods.

It's much harder than you think. Unfortunately there is no "easy" solution. Converting single threaded code 1:1 would only be possible if you could guarantee that no deadlocks will occur and that requires trickery unique to the problem at hand. It's not really a scalable solution. If you can, you should try to avoid acquiring more than one lock at a time but that also means you will have to rewrite everything to use message passing. Rewrites mean bugs and no new features for a long time.
I was surprised how fast the (frequently inconsistent) keyboard commands just get into your fingers, where you don't think about it anymore.

Similarly for the graphics, and that applies to games in general. You really stop noticing the graphics around ~30mins into a session, because you're running this asynchronous simulation in your head that only needs minimal information to update. That might be a reason why we remember games we played a long time ago being a lot prettier or detailed.

Facial recognition isn't that different from fingerprints or DNA traces. It's a comparison against a database of biometric data.

It used to be that law enforcement relied on fingerprints, eye-witnesses or a video tape backed by a judicial and legal system that - more or less - severely limited how and when that information could be collected and used e.g. within the context of discrete on-going criminal investigations.

This balance has been shifting entirely over the few short years.

Now, video camera's, fingerprinting and so on are collected pre-emptively; on literally everyone. Undeniably, it's easier to move forward on an investigation if you already have a lot of the data at hand. The argument put forward by proponents is that speeding up investigations saves lives. But that comes with a ton of hard problems.

First, searching accurately through a vast mountain of diffuse information is a hard problem. Law enforcement has outsourced that part to private companies, which opens up a can of worms in terms of confidentiality and privacy.

Second, searching through such a database becomes a black box as far as law enforcement is concerned: just upload a picture or a video fragment and it will easily yield any result. The fallacy being that convenience lulls LE into assuming that the results are accurate enough at face value. No need for verification or critical thinking (Much like you'd accept the results yielded by Google Search at face value).

Third, it's a convenient way to offshore responsibility towards the public. Law enforcement didn't make the wrong assertion if the wrong person ends up getting prosecuted and convicted: the data was just "not good enough". The fallacy here is that data gets treated as a commodity, which it is anything but.

Fourth, there's a difference between what's morally right and what's legal. The latter changes depending on how defines public governance. A database may be a great idea, until control is ceded to someone who uses that data against the public.

There's actually a historic precedent here: the 1943 bombing of the Amsterdam Civil Registry office. Following the 1940 German invasion of the Netherlands, all Dutch Jews had to carry a mandatory identity card and there whereabouts were recorded centrally at the Civil Registry. This was easy as, prior to the war, people's religious denomination had been recorded. The Dutch Resistance understood the importance and the downsides of a centralised record containing private information falling into the wrong hands. And so, they ended up attacking and demolishing the Civil Registry office containing that record. Albeit half-successful.

> Haskell is what happens when you go full lambda calculus, and the dedication to referential transparency really forces you down some interesting paths/abstractions. It's also worth noting that other functional languages like OCaml and lisp do not force purity so the idioms are not as extreme.

Clojure does, in some degree.
I also didn't use RISC OS - I came close in school, but the ancient machines always got replaced the year before me.

However, I have use ROX for a long time - called RISC OS on X - it is/was basically a file manager based around RISC OS, as well as some associated desktop technologies (like app directories). I think it's fair to describe it as a dead as a doornail (I just upgraded to Ubuntu 20.04, and since it no longer comes with pygtk2, various tools are dead). Some of its innovations found their way into other Linux desktop technologies, such as shared-mime-info.

But if you want to see what once was, it's a place to begin.

(ROX was actually a lot nicer than RISC OS, when I finally installed it on my RPi.)
Oh wow, I had no idea this existed. Interesting, I have a RX100m3 and A6000 that can probably run it. On my RX10m4, they removed the apps feature, which I think was probably a good move for Sony despite restricting the feature set - they are really clunky to use (each app takes over the camera and has its own set of settings, takes ages to start up etc.) and the functionality they provide would make more sense either built into the firmware or as a phone app.

Yep, from the point of stability that sucks obviously; there are stablecoins though. I still like BTC as a speculator (and I know it's almost nothing more than gambling, but considering coin tossing, dart throwing or monkeys outperform professional stock investors/fund managers (at least there are a ton of articles saying that), it all sounds like gambling), I create a nice living wage doing nothing at all but clicking buy/sell a few times a year. And that is only running on profits (so all money I 'invest' is profits made with btc alone) from when I bought a stack of btc end of 2016 because something seemed to be happening and by golly it was. As long as it works, it works.

Good or bad; whatever works... It's a nice extra on top of my day job.
There are a few projects on Github wrapping the API which the PlayMemories mobile app uses (so you can take photos, access the viewfinder etc), which may be of interest to some: https://github.com/Bloodevil/sony_camera_api for example (I’ve not tried any of these)
And if a service is not yet available as a managed service from at least couple providers - it's quite likely it's not mature enough for 99% of businesses to use. You're not Google, Facebook, etc.
It will be a challenge to boot anything else than macOS on those machines. They won’t support Boot Camp, and require boot binaries to be cryptographically signed by Apple (https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2020/10686/, starting around 15m30s)

> I read this the way the parent commenter read it as well: everyone is explicitly avoiding the notion that Verizon may be doing this because they feel like that is best for their public image. What I can't tell is if you're asserting that no one will answer because everyone is coming up with other ideas that seem to avoid the obvious, or if you think the parent commenter is asking a baseless question.

I think at this point most (if not the vast majority) of people think it a baseless question. Not because they think that it's impossible that Verizon/Verizon employees/Verizon executives/etc care but because non-human legal entities have lost all benefit of the doubt and credibility over the last few decades. The dominance of shareholder primacy has all but guaranteed it.

Even if the decision makers or even the majority of Verizon cares about this issue now, natural executive/employee turn over guarantees that they will go back to spending money with Facebook as long as there is a financial incentive to do so - sooner rather than later.
The next time somebody tells you that ask for details. What is insecure about it?

e.g. Would it be that it would be possible YOU might write a script with a security hole? Because if that is the case then the same could be said of bash-scripts, ruby on rails, and all the other languages out there.
I don't understand what's the problem? Is it better that some guy will go through file cases or some old detective will pop in and say "I know this guy" or whatever other way people used to identify people? All those methods can produce wrong results exactly like a computer. All the police have to do is let the computer give them some results then view it with their own eyes and see if it matches. The fact that some stupid cop went to arrest someone without even taking a look by himself is just lousy policing, it has nothing to do with the software. This is just part of the agenda to make police dysfunctional so black criminals will be able to go away from serious crimes. Father day in Chicago was just the beginning of the no policing nonsense, it is going to get worst.

I lived along one of the Zoox test routes in the North Beach neighborhood of SF. My corner (Filbert and Grant) was also a tourist hot-spot to get up to Coit Tower with families, segway tours, and other meanderers being common place.

Suffice it to say that I don't think self-driving car tech is ready for city streets. Zoox never put anyone in harms way, but damn did it hold up traffic if there was an "out of place" person.

Self-driving tech may be close to cruise control 2.0 - that is highway exit to highway exit navigation - but I have yet to see a self driving car handle a city street with actual people on it.
My beloved E6 had its flaws. It was a pain to sync, the syncs were not serviceable, but at least it was syncing to my computer, not to the cloud. On this one, Symbian Anna felt better than Symbian Belle and it would have been a pain to revert.

That said, it was small, smaller than an iPhone SE. And it had a hardware keyboard. I'm not against fancy apps and stuff on my phone but, besides calling reliability, the first thing I want is to be able to type small things.

I must confess I was unhappy that it even had a touchscreen: a nightmare when it was raining. I guess I just loved the form factor and its promises.

I'm thinking of making this an ode. The E6 ballad. Sorry for that long little-informative comment...
