"devkit" in this context means a development version of a Sony gaming console, like the PlayStation. They are different from a regular retail model in that they can run unsigned code so you can develop games for them. The reason why they are sensitive is that you could use a devkit to learn how the console works internally and potentially find some exploits that could be used in the retail models. Any company using them has to sign a very restrictive NDA that basically requires the kits to be locked up, you can't talk about their development environment or precise technical details. Sony would never sell you a devkit until you pass their security assesment, and you are only allowed to have them on the condition that they are returned to Sony when no longer needed.

Obviously, the severity of the problem depends on what gets auctioned. PS4 kits? Probably not much, pretty much everything about the console and its capabilities has been leaked a long time ago. But if some PS5 devkits were to go missing right now it would be a huge deal as the console isn't even out yet.
Someone who is developing for Apple platform in specific, has already spent ~$1000 in devices.

Ignoring the fact someone might have been given a Mac by someone else, or bought one second-hand for less, or that they might be working on a computer they don't own themselves, why is it that someone who can afford $1000 for a Mac can automatically afford another $100? Surely there has to be an amount that you assume they can't afford, right? If they can afford 10% more then why not 15%? Or 20% or 100%?

You're applying a sort of reverse of Zeno's Arrow[1] to affordability, and I think shows a distinct lack of understanding of how money works when you don't have all that much of it.

And some of those will do fine in mild shade, this is far from full canopy cover.

Aren't the new ARM macs going to support Docker in a nice way? Wouldn't that solve it? You can have what you want in your Docker, Apple can do whatever it wants (short of blocking the Dockers essential capabilities of course) to isolate said Docker.
I was harping about how else to describe simple programming constructs yesterday and came to the idea that you can essentially think of types in the same way you can think about primitives in 3D design. In 3D design primitives like cubes and cylinders are the basis of all kinds of more complex objects. And in programming you have simple types like strings and numbers. This is the opposite of the authors problem. But it would help an artist who wants to understand how to code. ;)
That's a really slick hardware piece, awesome work on that front.
Hmm yeah good point. Thought that you'd need to have at least $n many subscribers to be able to live stream on youtube but seems they've lifted the restriction since.
The original article is awesome for HN.
It also mentions Harnad, whose classes I attended many years ago.

It's still unclear to me what the point of this type of philosophy is though. Perhaps its practitioners find it entertaining? I haven't the faintest idea why we'd fund this more than say, people who want to make giant stone heads and leave them in the city's parks or people who make funny videos about their cats. It just goes around in circles, finding new ways to make the same (dualist) argument that I considered and rejected as an infant. I don't think we should ban it (or the giant stone head people) but it seems like it could be done independently on their own time without troubling society for funding.

Harnad at least had done/ been doing something else interesting and important unrelated to his philosophical musing - rebelling against the publisher monopoly on research output. Though he taught classes about Cognitive Science, he was partly at the University because of his radical thinking of how scholarly communication should work, in the form of the journal BBS (Behavioural and Brain Sciences). This was of course way ahead of its time, the things BBS struggled to do for small numbers of scholarly articles in the 1970s can now be easily replicated online for any topic you can think of.
But then you have to use Docker. It’s be nice to have something like that on iOS where it’d be an improvement, but on macOS, it’s a step down in a sense.
Zoom is not a replacement for a classroom. You can switch tasks from Zoom to something else, like a game, web browser, or any other distraction.

But in some ways, Zoom could be better. You can mute people that interrupt the class, or simply remove them from the meeting, preventing them from disrupting everyone else. And you have a chat where you can keep asynchronous discussions.

Yet, schools are far from perfect, and standardization is not necessarily beneficial. The current way students are grouped results in kids with behavioral problems being grouped with well behaved students, to the detriment of both.

One group gets their bad behavior reinforced, and the other group gets slowed down and demoralized. It doesn't have to be that way.

I've yet to see an austerity measure that strips away even the most basic protections the way US does.

The US: 40 million people one month away from eviction. 30 million people are one medical emergency away from life-time of crippling debt.

Americans: oh, look at austerity measures in Europe.
This is another one of that "extreme tail risk" scenarios, like climate change and GMOs, that people have wildly different and contradictory reactions to.

Sure, the "legacy" intelligence / climate / food could also have extreme tail risks, it's just that it's been tested for 100s of millenia... whereas new technology might be better in the average case or even 99th percentile, but the 1% (or 0.0001%) is unknown and potentially much worse.

However, it seems to me that people resolve this more along ideological / political lines than with any kind of rational reasoning.

JAMstack for All: An Introduction
The bridge is for cars. The rail authority really should not build it. They should budget for it and block-grant the money to a local authority who can then take responsibility for building it. That way the LA Times can write a scathing article about how Caltrans went over budget, except they would never do that because they never have done that, even when the SF-Oakland Bay Bridge went 800% over budget.

When you look at the budget of this project, a lot of the cost and complexity is due to accommodating cars and drivers. The rail authority really needs better strategic PR so the public begins to understand what's being spent on what.

While I haven't seen those comparisons, I did do a similar one myself. Like GP, I have a 2013 mbp. It still works perfectly and handles whatever I throw at it. As it's getting long in the tooth and it could end up not working anymore, and also because I got curious with the release of the 16" mbp, I looked a bit at the market, and also at similar offerings from Lenovo, HP and Dell.

You are right, for the price of a 16" MBP with 64 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD, I could buy a maxed out Lenovo X1E with 2 SSDs, so I could dual boot windows and Linux (I use Photoshop / Lightroom for personal photography but can't stand Windows otherwise). Oh, and I'd probably have more than enough left to go on a trip somewhere and actually use the mobile part of the laptop.

So yes, on pure performance numbers, I completely agree. However, that's really not the whole story. Not everybody needs absolute maximum performance. I wouldn't still be happy with my 7 yo mac if I did.

I use my laptop every day for (hopefully) years and years. So I care about other things. First and most important of all, the touchpad. I've tried Lenovo (T series), Dell XPS and HP Elitebook models. They all absolutely suck compared to a mbp. A friend has a 2-3 yo Dell XPS. The palmrest plastic is all sticky, the screen is wobbly the touchpad is a nightmare (sometimes it clicks on its own). I have an HP from work I sometimes use. The junction between the palm rest and the body isn't level, so after a few hours of working on it my wrists are raw from rubbing on the body. The same laptop has a power light right in front of the screen that is blinding. I had to cover it with a piece of aluminum foil to be able to work in the evening. These kinds of annoyances make it worth it for me to spend the extra cash on a mbp that will just get out of my way and let me work.
Interesting. I'm only familiar with Mesos/Aurora, which is often considered outdated next to Kubernetes, but it can do all those things in place.

This is the reply I was expecting, and I think you are right, but a CNN doesn't take into account any contradictions. It doesn't test the input for correctness, it just tries to categorize and fucked if the results make no sense.

CCD cameras or counting bit errors doesn’t really have great sensitivity for radiation detection. This is why they are generally not used to monitoring projects and people stick with Geiger tubes. This is my understand anyway (having worked on these kinds of projects).
We are years away from any of that. This is a simulator first and foremost, with some basic option to run it on a primitive quantum computer for real. In any case, there are still massive practical hurdles that need to be overcome to make quantum computing useful for any real world scenario. Breaking cryptography will require up to tens of thousands of QBits.

What would the use case be for material science?
> No, they prove that people who are in a program that is very clearly temporary will not end their careers for a short pilot program. This means nothing.

This argument reads like a strawman, and is detached from reality.

The argument about the risk of people quitting their job because of basic income is based on the idea that those who are forced to work shitty jobs to have a source of income (i.e., wage slavery) won't have to subject themselves to it if they already have a source of income.

More importantly, people who live in wage slavery don't have careers, they have a job. They are bound to an activity or even an employer who ensures they have a paycheck as long as they do their job. I mean, do you honestly believe that a minimum wage job doing non-specialized tasks that anyone anywhere can do and can replace you in a moment's notice counts as a career? Of course it isn't. It's just something you do to pay the bills. Do you honestly believe no one would quit that as soon as they have a way to pay the bills?

> No. If you make $1k from a job and $1k from a pilot program each month, you spend the $1k from the pilot on legitimate bills and now you have $1k to spend however you like.

Your take on the program is very disingenuous, specially in the way you try to frame the old job as being the provider of all the brand new goodies and luxuries and fancy spending while the new source of income adds nothing more beyond taking care of the expenses that were already taken care of.

Suffice to say, I'd participants were stuck with their old income, they wouldn't be able to afford anything, would they?

Basic income supplies an income baseline. That means people cease to be tied to a repulsive job just to make ends meet. How they generate disposable income is up to them. With basic income you're free to pick high-reward but low-paying jobs, or even no job at all if you are willing to live a frugal life. That's the kind of change that will be studied in these programs.
While you are able to, many others are not. So it's a hassle for those developing independently to distribute their software to the masses.

So yes, you can run the same software (mostly) as in 2010 knowing the workarounds. But as a consumer you are probably missing out on new, great software because developers wont pay the apple tax to make their stuff available. So you're already affected. It's not FUD, you're just not seeing the issue.
It seems like many areas of human endeavor are complicated enough that you could become an expert of a field as opposed to an expert in a field. For example, could you have university courses that build experts of biological research as a field and not ever pick up a pipet? Does that already exist?

It's also a tragedy of the commons style issue: Why should I sacrifice when others won't, and as a result, my own sacrifice will be useless.

It's fascinating how we've come full circle in computing and we're back to booking compute time and putting jobs in a queue to run on a big shared machine again. My Dad used to tell me about how he'd have to wait to run things on the DEC machines where he worked in '70s, wait for the output to print out, and debug his code by hand before he could run it again. No doubt writing software to run on Amazon Braket would be a pretty similar process if it weren't for the simulators.

There have been multiple studies now that suggest significant herd immunity kicks in around 20-30% infection rate. We should see in a couple of weeks but if every state and country continues to hit an infection wall around 30%, it bodes well that the end is near.

It also suggests that even 10-50M vaccines (in the US) can make an enormous impact and this thing may be over (as a severe widespread issue) in 2020.

I'm excited to see the next 4-6 weeks of data on this.
minds, mastodon, diaspora. that is about it. as for twitter, there is gab and parler. i think minds has the best potential but they lack development. they haven't changed over the years. beside new UI that was put to action few months ago and made it look like twitter for some reason, it's the same site, functionality-wise, it has always been. i left because of low interaction and the groups are a joke. gab is very "twitterey", some people think parler is no the sh... but i doubt it. anyway, i am no longer on any of them. it always boils down to interaction. or the lack of. that is where you need solid backend for recommendations and things like that.

> We have PLENTY of evidence to suggest that inflation is harmful for everyone, ESPECIALLY for low income workers.

I'm under the impression that inflation is disproportionately hurts those with large amounts of cash saved. In this hypothetical scenario where we have 100% employment and it causes inflation, wages would rise with inflation, so rising prices wouldn't be an issue... right?

> I'm sure Apple would prefer that every iPod user own a Mac

Not if it's an old mac ;-) I was an early iPod touch adopter (bought with X-mas money IIRC). Plugged it into my iBook G4 and was informed the version of iTunes was both too old and the latest this laptop was going to get.

Plugged it into a Windows 2000/XP machine (which I think was already old for the time) and it managed to get the latest version of iTunes.

Now of course, I'm aware of the context of the PPC to Intel shift and that there was a non-zero cost to maintaining both streams of iTunes build but it really put me off Apple at the time.
Out of curiosity, what's the point then? Why not just phone home with the hash of the binary, instead of forcing developers to assign a UUID/pseudohash to their binary?

You're very early (though maybe not wrong eventually), quoting from the article

"ACK is available as a developer preview, supporting the following AWS services:

Amazon API Gateway V2
Amazon DynamoDB
Amazon ECR
Amazon S3
Amazon SNS
Amazon SQS"

And:

"Specifically, in the coming months we plan to focus on:

Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), track via the RDS label.
Amazon ElastiCache offers fully managed Redis and Memcached, track via the Elasticache label."

In 5 years maybe this will be comparable to Cloudformation, but AWS will likely launch services faster than this adds them.

The license-based downclocking is per-core on most new chips, but according to the linked blog post that doesn't really exist on Ice Lake anyway. Pretty sure thermal and TDP-based downclocking are across the entire package (all cores and the GPU) which in some sense might make them more objectionable than license-based downclocking.
