I would think the overlap between Rosetta 1 and Rosetta 2 is effectively zero, even when including engineers who worked on both as “overlap”. It’s 16 years ago, and Apple bought significant parts of the original Rosetta from a third party that now is part of IBM (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QuickTransit)

So, I wouldn’t use the quality of Rosetta 1 as an indicator for the quality of Rosetta 2.

What we did (and continue to do) in the TechEmpower Framework Benchmarks [1] is publish a set of requirements for our test types, provide a small set of example implementations on mainstream frameworks, and then solicit input and contributions from the open source community. Fast forward to today, and we'll be at 5,000 pull requests processed soon, and receive many from framework maintainers or advocates. Other test implementations are maintained by broader fans of languages.

Obviously there are an unbounded set of ways people can test the boundaries or contribute implementations that aren't in the spirit of the project. We've had to deal with several contributions that required push back or removal. Since we run our benchmarks project in our spare time, we rely heavily on the community to help us keep an eye on implementations, and also help determine where to set boundaries when they require clarification. For example, is pipelining in the Postgres driver acceptable given we disallowed batch querying? We ultimately decided it was acceptable because it's leaving the ergonomics of application development unchanged.

I feel that overall, the project has been effective in large part because the community has done a good job of self-policing.

Good question. If you want to get into the weeds, there are a couple articles worth looking at:

It's remarkable how overwhelmingly negative the comments on HN are to everything Apple does. The top comment is always some "this is the final straw...I'm leaving the platform" screed (if you look back, those people have usually made that declaration a dozen times), and everyone who claims anything contrary is pushed to transparent.

HN needs to go out and take a walk and get some perspective. What a bunch of sour assholes.
I don't think Apple has explicitly said anything, but the fact that this version will support a new CPU architecture seems like a pretty good reason.
Fun? Maybe. But this is so much faster. And as a GM, sometimes I'm just coming up with maps fifteen minutes before I sit down to play. This is a really solid tool for when I don't have time for Dungeondraft, and I find Dungeondraft to be even more fun than graph paper.

All that, and also -- Apple sets prices about once a year. Meanwhile, the price of CPUs, RAM and graphics cards drops. For any price level that Apple establishes, I can afford a Hackintosh desktop of much greater power or I can save a lot of money and get equivalent power.

Though, to be honest, I don't bother unless there's a particular application which isn't available on Linux.
I recently purchased a new 13" pro, upgraded to the top processor. I installed Bootcamp and played hours of The Witcher 3 (on low settings, of course, but still). There were no overheating issues. Fan was going full blast the whole time, but it kept up just fine. Hopefully my little anecdote instills a little confidence. The new 13" is as close to a perfect machine to me as I have ever owned. It's compact, portable, light but a completely full powered functional 100% dev workhorse (with a great keyboard AND a physical escape key to boot). I couldn't be happier. Kudos to Apple for this one.
What you are saying is the same thing. “Unhappy users” are unhappy because of lack of the freedoms I mentioned. One has to fight for them.
Selling desktop software to Linux users is only unprofitable because it often sucks and when it doesn't the market share isn't there. Have you ever seen anyone actually pay for Windows or Mac OS? No? right.

> I don't think I've ever seen an ad in Snapchat. It's all buried in the Discover page that nobody uses anyway (emphasis mine)

But isn’t that a bit of a problem when it comes to ads where you want people to see them if you want to get paid? So they’re bound to increase their ad intrusiveness at some point and with the quality of ads in there I’m not sure people will put up with it.

> It's all geared around ensuring the user's privacy

Security by obscurity doesn’t really work though, it’s always going to be a game of cat & mouse and leaks are bound to happen. On the other hand, their current approach of obfuscation prevents a lot of valid & non-malicious use-cases like desktop clients, scheduled posts, etc.

> Is it?

Instagram still seems to be crushing them when it comes to active users, plus Facebook has the ability to run it at a loss for an insane amount of time if they wanted to, letting the competition (such as Snap) starve to death.
I did some proof-of-concepts ages ago (October 2010) exploring different ways of embedding a PNG alpha channel in JPEG application specific fields to have 100% JPEG compliant files which web browsers could display with transparency. It worked just fine.

If you want transparent JPEGs on your web page that works.

Back then the number of GETs was really important, so stuffing the mask into the JPEG made sense. Now with our HTTP/3 and QUIC world that isn't such a big deal.You might be better off just using a CSS mask image.
> I literally can think of no reason I personally would want to do this

If you personnaly care a little bit about the environment there is a pretty evident reason why being able to swap a single piece of hardware is better than replacing the whole unit because everything is soldered together.

Right to repair would also mean that once your device goes out of guarantee you would have more options to get your device repaired for cheaper.
Tools which change like this never stand the test of time. A far better move would have been to standardize GH APIs and provide native clients, guaranteeing long-term utility on many platforms. Git passed the test of time, but github likely will not.

Edit: today I learned a lot of young people sound like old people. Interesting perspective.
Why can't you do that now?

Re: protests, NYC has had large, extremely dense protests for weeks now. Mask compliance is near 100% at them, and testing is easy, ubiquitous and free. We have not seen a spike in cases.
Big Cats was way better IMO. I was surprised they switched to landmarks, and I'm more surprised that they haven't changed to something else entirely yet.
I did some reading of the PNG specification and it may be possible to take advantage of Adam7 interlacing (8 passes total) and scanline filtering (several methods) to write out an image where the scanlines of 'known to be blurry' areas contain only 1 pass of image data and 7 passes of highly-compressible scanlines with filters that generate blur at decode-time.

Doing this formally at scale would require the compositor and the encoder to cooperate, as the encoder would benefit greatly from having access to both the 'blurred' and 'unblurred' areas without the blur filter having been applied to the former, as it could then construct low-fidelity, low-bandwidth, visually pleasing blur for the 'blurred' segments.

This exceeds my ability to write PNGs by hand and it certainly exceeds the bounds of what most people think 'an encoder' should be capable of doing, but at least it presents a path forward. I'll post to HN someday if I ever somehow manage to do this.
As I said in the other thread, please don't hurl epithets at people. If you disagree with me, you don't have to call me deceitful.

Do you disagree that there are consequences and externalities to the H1B suspension that go beyond our best guess at the motivations of the White House? That's what I suggest in my comment, but you haven't addressed that at all.

Never understood the point of herd immunity through deliberate infection with a potentially deadly disorder. I mean what the point of getting sick now, instead of later.

IIRC, the Blue Meanies were simply the System 7 core developers, not a HIG-specific group.
I don't really consider labeling a business to be advertising, though. That's like if I go to Wikipedia and see the Wikipedia logo--it's just showing me where I am.

Internet advertising is pretty much all lying. Even when what an ad says is factual, they're not telling you the whole truth, they're telling you a partial truth that leaves out pieces of information which they know would be relevant to you--that's a lie because their intent is to deceive you.

And by the way, I do get it: in a lot of businesses you have to advertise because your competitors are advertising. Advertising is a blight on society that infects everyone: opting out of advertising isn't a viable option without major sacrifice. I'd like to see a future where we all agree to stop advertising and rely on consumer-reports-style reviewers to obtain unbiased product information.
Wait... so in a few updates Macbooks will be locked down like iPhones without a possiblity for "sideloading" ?
> It’s literally more expensive to hire someone on an H1b.

I am highly skeptical of this claim as well as the fact that relocation is paid for average H1B worker. Your experience might be typical for top paying SV tech companies but not the local municipal state government that is hiring H1Bs for manual GUI testing.

In any case, most H1B workers are hired multiple levels below their experience level so companies are paying less for more experience. And given that your average Indian H1B cannot jump to another job for many years due to the GC/EAD queue, they are typically coerced into putting way more hours than Americans workers that understand labor laws so companies are still profiting off of the wage/hr imbalance after the initial fixed relocation cost.

Here's an example. If I were to post an article that shows data that NYC shootings are up 30% since activist-pushed disbanding of cops took place, it would get downvoted to oblivion, flagged repeatedly and such. It's an interesting discussion point, and there are some very calm and rational pro and cons to different approaches. Instead, an article like this one from Propublica gets upvoted to the stratosphere.

As long as we admit there's some sort of double-standard at play, I'm fine with it. Or we're consistent.
Is the Privacy Policy link broken? It just links to https://www.economicliberties.us

You can get FOP bumper stickers etc., in some states to show your civilian "support" (financial, and otherwise) of police.

You can also buy them on eBay, unofficially. Of course, the police unions have gone after sellers there, for some reason.

In one state the union went so far as issuing registration-like tags for your FOP bumper sticker, so that if a cop was pulling you over, he'd know whether you were "paid up", so to speak. Of course, it's only about support, and not legalized proactive bribery, just to be clear...
Your scenario definitely exists, but it also doesn't hit the likes of the user you respond to as much as you might expect.

SSD's don't fail the way they used to, RAM requirements don't change as much as it used to and while batteries do die, at this time I've seen more people switch machines before any of that happens.

The last time I wanted or needed to replace memory or storage in a laptop must have been 7 years ago, and I don't see anyone else doing that either. Even desktop upgrades are somewhat dead at this point, except for a GPU upgrade if someone is a gamer, or storage upgrade if people still use direct attached storage and didn't get enough when they initially got the machine.

Just because a scenario that hits a small percentage of DIY users is getting hard doesn't mean it's bad for everyone else as well.
Would you at least agree that how content is promoted could be dangerous? For example, recommender systems that promote pro-bulemia content to teenage girls or pro-terrorism content to disaffected youth? They are things Facebook and Google have been accused of.

I have experienced Linux being more responsive than macOS when I run it on my gaming / deep learning computer or when I loaded it on my MacBook Pro 2017 . The problem was the rest of the OS didn't work or was a nightmare. On a MacBook Pro Linux would never suspend correctly. On my Gaming / Deep learning computer Ubuntu keeps on updating the kernel and ruining my work installing linux to the point I gave up multiple times. And by the time that Dell Developer Editions started being competitive I would be SSHing into AWS or doing something completely different.

My workloads are getting to the point that a Colab Pro Notebook sounds like a good idea or setting up my Gaming / Deep learning computer to use RDP into it using Windows 10. But by now I would probably even want to install Windows Server 2019 due to the fact that the NVIDIA drivers would support the card and when I run video games I don't have to manually kill background services that subtract 30 FPS from my video games making them unplayable on a Titan RTX.

There is a lot of research supporting how much the when of intermittent fasting matters even when the what and how much are held constant. How the food is distributed over time matters for insulin which affects weight gain / loss.

There is widespread misunderstanding that obesity is caused by caloric imbalance while it is actually caused by hormonal imbalance.

Dr. Jason Fung has written extensively (research, blog posts, books) covering how IF impacts insulin and insulin sensitivity, and how that downstream leads to obesity [and how IF helps reverse obesity]. I highly recommend his books such as The Obesity Code.

> Everyone worries about criminals.

Patently false. It wasn't until I went to an elite, mostly white, almost exclusively upper-middle-class-and-above college that I learned this.

Anyone — especially any minority — who grew actually up in urban poverty understands this well.

If your memory needs refreshing or if you're the kind of "pick me" minority favored by the sort of elite whites who populate this platform, maybe listen to Mos Def's "Beef" on repeat for a few hours to pick up some of the flavor. The whites will love it.

Thanks for the great tips! I’m not super thrilled at the idea of running Linux on Windows, though that may be the best option. It would be nice to have more games available, but I find using Windows a grating experience with its constant popups and annoyances. It’s a thousand little things that annoy the heck out of me when using it. I had a Windows work box for 3.5 years and the only nice things I have to say for it we’re Outlook, Excel, and SSMS, which are fine products.

Considering the environmental damages that this causes it should indeed be a right.
Advertising is like a stopped clock: even when they present some part of the truth, it's not information, because you don't know if it's true or not. You have to obtain information via other means.

And even when they make statements of fact, it's still lying because they leave things out with the intent to deceive.
For nice widget animations you can install a GTK engine/theme. There is a deluge of GTK themes you can choose from if that is your thing.

There are many themes inspired on macOS if you are aiming for that kind of look.

http://reddit.com/r/unixporn has a lot of that stuff. You can just go and grab someone else's configuration and apply it to your system.

If you are aiming for window effects with no regards for performance, try Compiz. You can add as many window effects as you want.

I’d never heard of your extension before but IMO that is not at all what I think of as a “browser extension” - it seems to me that it’s more using the browser as an application runtime than actually providing more functionality for the current page.
Which is closer to violent insurrection: responding to police violence by attacking symbols of the police, or bringing an armed group into a statehouse with the express intent of intimidating lawmakers?

Keep in mind when answering that in most cases, escalations to violence by protests were in response to unnecessary escalating by police forces. We have to evaluate so called bad actors in the context of the response to them.

Are you confident that armed statehouse protests wouldn't have devolved to violence if met with teargas and rubber bullets? Are you confident that police protests would have had similar levels of violence if not pushed towards it by police?

I hear what you’re saying. I think the main thing I would push back on is the order in which you make those decisions however. Why take on all the additional cognitive overload from the start of the project because you might want a native screen at some point in the future? It’s basically another version of the micro services debate.

I think there is a heavy if unconscious bias among web developers now that the “one true way” to build web apps is to take the same methodologies and frameworks from Facebook and Google usually.

I’m obviously not the first person to point this out but trying to replicate the software development processes of some of the largest companies in the world is in no way correlated with a better anything (user experience, dev experience, code, time to market etc).

In fact I would take it further and say that there are a not insignificant number of new developers especially from the dev boot camp style pipelines who literally don’t even know how to build anything without reaching for one of these tools. We saw the same thing with people reaching for Bootstrap or now Tailwind for a long time and not knowing how to do anything outside of it. This isn’t to give them a hard time, I have been that kind of Stack overflow driven developer myself for a long time. I just think that maybe as an industry we have made some poor choices that have become gospel overtime and it might be worth revisiting that.
I frequently build/work on apps that need to show numerical outputs in a clean, easy-to read way, and many "consumer" fonts ignore or underweight the legibility of numeric data, especially at small sizes. So I would absolutely consider using this font, which I think also looks very nice, in apps I build.
