That is at least 3 niche entries in addition to the 2 mainstream choices.

Intel wants really badly to be a 3rd player in the GPU space and its integrated graphics are already good enough if you aren't gaming although I have doubts about their upcoming dedicated GPU.

The Linux desktop space is nicer in the keyboard centric simple environments space or at least ditch gnome and switch to KDE running on an distro that actually stays up to date.

The challenge is not mostly using such an environment its setting it up in the first place.

Looks like every category has 3-5 options.
The biggest thing is probably systemd user services and session management with logind. Having your entire user session under a process supervisor that can anything can hook into is good for stability since your "desktop" now has a much more control of what's actually running. They days of logout just failing because your compositor can't kill all the things are pretty much gone. Logind is far far from perfect but it's a breath of fresh air compared to ConsoleKit and it unifies the concept of a session so that GUI/VNC/SSH are all the same kind of thing.
I feel like it sounds good not only to VCs, but also to consumers who assume AI will benefit them without truly understanding what it is and why they should use it.

Why would a company believe it's doing illegal stuff? That wouldn't make much sense unless it's made out of people that are OK with doing illegal stuff (Mafia?). So of course most employees don't believe that.

And whether or not such training is meant by executives to hide illegal behavior that they are aware of it's also catching many cases where people are just dumb and use wrong words to mean different things, words that have specific meaning in a legal context and that can hurt the person and the company although there was no illegal act being done.

I have a 2017 MBP. There are several keycaps that that are no longer physically connected to the key, so if I tilt the laptop 4 or 5 keys fall off. I have been dealing with it by using an external Apple keyboard (with added benefit of having 10-key and full sized arrow keys). Since it's on a desktop in this config, I have it set to never sleep so luckily I have not seen this unwakeable fuck up.

I have no home videos from my childhood at all- my parents never showed any interest in buying a camera, and they weren't common in my circles anyway. I think there's exactly one video of me before I was 20-ish.

That said, I do worry about all those family WhatsApp videos that my family shares and/or the videos that my siblings keep in their phones with no backup whatsoever. Maybe this post will finally convince me to put something together.

Airlines are actually heavily monopolized. However, it's the routes that are monopolized.

So you appear have your choice of airlines, but if you want a direct flight and don't live in a hub, then you don't really.

And, often when it seems like you have a choice, you're actually flown by people from a no-name contract airline that controls that route no matter which brand is on the plane.
Oops, I based that on the Oakley wikipedia article (which only mentions vague antitrust concerns[1]) and the parent's ignorance about Luxxotica's purchase of Oakley (I assumed he looked at the Wikipedia article).

UTC works just fine, or TAI if you don't want to deal with leap seconds. (UTC is international atomic time (TAI) offset by leap seconds to keep in sync with earth's rotation)

Once you get into relativistic effects you need something better, but for practical purposes UTC and TAI are just fine for the foreseeable future. The days just become a meaningless abstract concept.
Ok. Thanks for answering.
If patching the kernel to intercept network requests is sufficiently hard enough that you're forced to use their "approved" way of intercepting network requests, then it's very easy for them to sneak requests through. Even if patching the kernel wasn't an issue, it still turns into a game of whack a mole because apple can sneak as many changes as they want with each macos release. It heavily favors apple, not the developers of such firewalls.

So… if you’re archiving, you’d normally make one high-quality master copy and then create the lower-quality streaming versions from that. Unfortunately, there are often reasons that you’d want multiple versions for streaming.

You also don’t always need to re-encode for streaming. It depends on why the format couldn’t stream in the first place. If you use the wrong container format for streaming (like you create an MKV file), then you can use -codec:v copy -codec:a copy and you’re not re-encoding anything. On the other hand, if you got a yuv444 and you need yuv420 for streaming, that requires re-encoding.
I was shocked how efficient the DMV was in Seattle after coming from Houston. It was actually a pleasant experience.
Then I think you'll also love the Container Default Pages extension [0]. I lets you assign a default website for each container. So for example if you have a container just for YouTube, you can set YouTube to open automatically when you open a new tab in that container. It's very convenient.

Yes, and people do use C++ as a better C to get OO and a stronger type system, at the cost of compilation times (and the usual C++ pitfalls).

I use D as better C. I use it as better C++ at times. Once ownership/borrowing [1] is stable, I'll use it as a better Rust too.

For close-to-the-metal code, I use D's inline assembler [2]. "To go any lower level than that, you'd need a miniature soldering iron and a very, very steady hand." (Andrei Alexandrescu)

It will be quite interesting to see how these assets will be devaluated in the future when we finally roll off IPv4 (if we ever do).

Besides the direct technical benefits of having so many addresses Amazon also potentially holds billions worth of assets that will eventually devalue and devalue quite extremely that they could write off for tax purposes.

IPv4 addresses will continue to appreciate in value until their collapse which means that Amazon might be able to write off tenfold than what they paid to acquire them in the first place.

I think Tesla was right, but the attitude issue reflects on the individual's mindset (in addition to the focus issue he aptly described). Some people will do any job to the best of their ability, whether it's sweeping the floors or managing a company; others will continually lust after the more prestigious position, and never accomplish the tasks at hand.
Whether the job is respected/well paid, or whether the wait times are long, is orthogonal to whether they’re a painful experience.

no need to re-encode the video if you're only manipulating the audio, and audio is so small compared to video you could just have it lossless (or effectively lossless)

Can confirm that my 2016-era XPS 15 model has the best trackpad I've used on a PC. I did have an issue where after a few years it became almost impossible to physically click (still important for click-and-drag operations), though after investigation it turned out that the dying battery was swelling up from below and interfering with the trackpad. So, full marks on the trackpad, but I hope they've ironed out their battery story.

Second this - XPS machines on Wayland are basically spot on for trackpads.

Honestly - just Wayland in general has dramatically improved my linux desktop experience. 10/10, will never go back to X.
For most currencies, you can basically use a single exchange rate for all transactions.

No, in determining f/x gain loss, you must use the exchange rate at the time of each transaction, though you get to choose FIFO or LIFO for determining that the base exchange rate is for determining gain or loss.

Generally, most businesses deal with f/x issues in one of two ways: either they have a foreign office that uses a foreign currency as its functional currency (a QBU) and process the foreign currency transaction through that office; or they have a bank handle the USD-to-foreign conversion on the day of the transaction at whatever the appropriate rate, is so there is no f/x gain/loss.
Are you saying that because large numbers of typical users have not yet switched to desktop Linux, we can conclude that desktop Linux is not a reasonable option they can switch to?
Indeed. I think for all his faults, Jobs was still himself a "power user". He understood why people wanted to be able to tweak things like this because he wanted to be able to this himself (even if most of the time he used an ipad).

>> Why should any of these people be considered "unemployed"?

There is no abstract reason, unless we're just talking about what the word unemployed "really" means. Pointless semantics.

The reason they should be considered unemployed is contextual. "Unemployment" is the measure used by journalists & politicians to gauge the labour market. In that context, it is very important to consider these people who have stopped expecting to work unemployed. They are part of the "slack." Their experience experience of the labour market is "i can't get a job."

If unemployment is lower than it was in year X because people stop applying or qualifying for some unemployment benefit... that doesn't mean the labour market is better.

Everything is contextual. People arguing for alternative unemployment measures aren't (generally) arguing semantics. Their arguing that the metric is misleading us.

I just tried search for "quill" in incognito, and I got quill.com as the first hit (both ads as well as organic result) - apparently there's a company called Quill Corporation (quill.com).

This seems reasonable. What's your suggestion on how to make this better ?

The problem with ML/AI is that it almost never provides people with a significant new capability. It can improve and augment, but rarely lets people do something that they couldn't do before. There is no "killer app"

It's very difficult to have a transformative impact by adding features or making a process 5% more efficient. It seems like we're very far away from AI enabling the average person to have new opportunities and experiences in the same way as past technological innovations have.

example: email enables me to communicate instantly and asynchronously with someone on the other side of the world. what does ml enable me to do?
Spaces, the virtual desktop manager, makes it good. A few years ago, multiple desktops were accessible with a 3-finger swipe left or right. Now, when you make an app full-screen, it creates a new space to contain the app, so multiple full-screen apps are easily accessible.

Linux has a virtual desktop manager, and Windows has some 3rd-party apps that provide multiple desktops. None of those apps seem as tightly integrated and useful as this Mac OS feature.
As I understand it from the UK, a 'DMV' is the equivalent of the DVLA, handling 'licence plates' and driver licensing? (And then 'your local' because states.)

So, what do you even need to do so frequently that you care how wonderful/expedient/slow/in/efficient your local DMV is? (Nevermind it being a 'soul-sucking place', that you actually go to?!)

It sounds to me like ours is better/faster simply by doing less, some red tape that we either don't have or have automated.

My first and last interaction with the DVLA was when I passed my test. ..ok maybe I filled out a web form for change of address since.

It seems pretty clear to me that the ideal (for those who don't want to be authoritarians) has always been to offer as many opportunities to evade violence as possible. If someone is violating the law, ask them to correct it. If they fail there, help them correct it. If they fail there (or insist), penalize them with inconveniences or fees. If they still fail, 'force' starts to enter the picture, but it should always come with a consideration of need. A person should have to burn through a lot of their credibility and good will before society starts forcing their hand.
