we hope to get you dependent upon our product, and in the meantime come up with something we hope you'll be willing to pay for is not the most confidence inducing of business plans. Also, if the current plans are "free forever" have no caps on users or much of anything else and are good enough to use until they actually finish off the things worth paying for then how many folks are actually going to be inclined to pay for them?

if it's NOT good enough as-is then why bother using it in the first place?
Docker already runs fine on ARM Linux, I can't imagine porting to Apple's ARM flavor of Unix is that much harder
You must live in a swing state. I get zero political ads in CA.
Yeah, as an introduction to programming, it could even be used with very, very young kids, apparently people are born with an intuitive physics module (babies are surprised by things that don't make physical sense), so who knows? Maybe someone may claim one day that she has been programming since age 2!
A few years ago I back-filled my blog with all of the content I'd posted to Quora, extracted using a simple scrape of my Quora profile page: https://simonwillison.net/tags/quora/

You're not alone. My 2019 15" MacBook was damaged beyond repair just before they announced the ARM transition. I decided to wait and I've been programming on a 2012 Mac Mini for the past few months. Amazing machine considering it's age, but I'm very ready for a new one.
This argument is specifically, and repeatedly, addressed by Greenwald in his article. [1]

> The Hunter Biden documents have at least as much verification as those other archives that were widely reported. There are sources in the email chains who have verified that the published emails are accurate. The archive contains private photos and videos of Hunter whose authenticity is not in doubt. A former business partner of Hunter has stated, unequivocally and on the record, that not only are the emails authentic but they describe events accurately, including proposed participation by the former Vice President in at least one deal Hunter and Jim Biden were pursuing in China. And, most importantly of all, neither Hunter Biden nor the Biden campaign has even suggested, let alone claimed, that a single email or text is fake.

It's not 'harder' to take mass off earth than it is to bring mass back. Assuming you want to bring the mass back 'gently' and not have it collide with earth like a comet. Think like pulling a rock out of a hole vs lowering it back down in a controlled manner, controlled here meaning velocity=0 by the time it reaches the bottom. In both cases you are responsible for transitioning the same amount of energy into or out of the rock. To do this with a rocket would required the same integration of force and thus fuel. In the case where you are lowering the rock, ie returning mass back to space, you have to bring fuel to the rock to 'lower' it back down so it is actually harder to bring mass back.
A few? Off the top of my head:

- The Queen's Gambit

- Narcos

- House of Cards

- Russian Doll

- Ozark

- Stranger Things

- Tiger King

- Dear White People

- The Witcher

- The Umbrella Academy

- The Crown

- Space Force

And that's just TV shows. There are a lot of films they've put out that are very good as well.
Hmm. This is tricky and I'm not sure I completely get your requirements, but let me try. Other emacs dudes will need to step in. In the following no customisation needed as I don't use elisp.

Copy or cut everything between these quotes / parenthesis / brackets.

Don't know. Never needed to. Trivial with a macro

Delete up until the next X character. Now delete up until the next X character again.

Never used it but https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Ot... M-z char - Kill through the next occurrence of char (zap-to-char).

Cut these rows then paste them over there.

Well, select rows, kill, move to new place, yank. Not sure what else you want.

Change all instances of "foo" to "bar".

M-S-% - query replace (and variations such as regexp)

Show all lines with (or without) "foo".

Erm can only do with, but as in original post, M-s o (occurs)

Reformat a line like so, now do it to the 351 line following it.

Not sure your requirements but command align-regexp works for me. Don't know what else you want.

Reindent this section of text.

Depends on mode, but select text then TAB key.

Go to the beginning of this if() / method / loop.

Don't know. Perhaps Search reverse for { char?

Go the the file where this Python / PHP class is defined.

Mode specific. I'd be pretty sure that kind of functionality doesn't come built into vim. I use Omnisharp which does similar but it's an external package.

In markdown files, open this hyperlink

mode specific. Presumably also in Vim?

Search for the first occurrence of this token in this method.

Just search forward. That may not be quite what you want, maybe.

Search for the next occurrence of this word (actually learned to do this today, for the most part)

M-s . when on symbol. Subsequently C-s search forward, C-r searches reverse (backward).

But I'm not trying to change your mind, use what suits best.

Edit: M-S h is highlight-regexp which highlights all matches in the buffer in colour (does depend one some mode stuff, but works in most modes).
I wasn’t commenting necessarily on this attack. Just saying the claim that ransomware attacks are purely financial is demonstrably untrue in at least one case.
Chargers aside, iPhone 12 mini and SE2 bring unparalleled value. It’s funny cause all you’ve got to do is make small phone with flagship processor.
And iPads are just killing it. I’m not worried at all about them bringing value.
If they build on installation, then Apple just needs to make sure they have build tools ready. That's easy pickings compared to porting individual packages or apps.
> Therefore you're unqualified to make this specific managerial decision

They kind of are though. If they've chosen not to be in a management position, they have chosen not the have all the context around decisions, nor devote their mental energy to evaluating and making managerial decisions.

Qualified isn't necessarily the right term, but you can't be the leader only when its convenient, that just won't work.
If this is all completely ludicrous and made up it would hardly kill the Biden campaign to just issue a statement saying that. I was quite skeptical when the article was first published (especially about the origin of the leaked materials) but have become less so as I've observed no one with any skin in the game actually stepping forward to say the leaks are forged.
> But, it seems the American public is completely obsessed with the October Surprise.

The news media is. The public (especially, given the pace of early voting, this year) doesn't seem to be, as much.
I can’t count how many times forums saved me with obscure bugs/ failures. “Nvidia driver crashes when playing x at x resolution” good luck with tech support if they can’t replicate the failure.
Show HN: BlobBackup – Lightweight Backup Utility
Honestly HN, what in the fuck?? The comments here have run the gamut from conspiracy to arguing there’s a purge coming against the media.

If this is the state of ‘hacking’, I’m cancelling my internet access.
Apple should make the macbook pro a lot more customizable IMO. Have multiple keyboard types, add/remove touch bar, add/remove ability to upgrade RAM after purchase, customize number of ports and port types, etc.

I know a lot of people (myself included) that would gladly pay for those types of upgrades.
I’ve seen errors on multiple occasions on hn, reddit, twitter, ...

I suspect that undermines your entire point.
Tech companies continue to supplant other businesses though, I can easily see a reason to be bullish if you think they will continue to take over other markets. However, I agree, that broad market US indices will not go down in a multiple year timeline as long as the US government can help it.
Content isn't a monopoly. Content competes with other content. The same way content creators have been competing forever.
Not just that, but the places we currently grow our food have been primed to fertility over thousands of years of relatively stable climates. If many of those areas become substantially less useful for growing crops (because of storms, temperature changes, drought, whatever have you), it's foolish to assume that we will see just as many places that haven't had millennia of vegetation growing on them become fertile.
A cloud server with no network, no persistent storage, and no user access: what?
I think it's safe to assume that Office is much much more than Azure, or they would break it out to look better.
And this is not the first time [1], either. I feel it's unethical to not disclose in the article that he's affiliated with the services he's advertising.

Thank you so much! I've been working hard for quite a while on this, you don't know how much it means to me that people liked it.
I wonder what's replacing the ads from travel(hotels, flights, packages).

e-commerce, cooking apparatus and whatnot. Tupperware's stock has increased x15 since May. People spending more time at home leads them to cook and store food more often.
Isn’t brew just ruby scripts?
This is hilarious, like maybe make them so that they don't have interiors, just a shell of a house!
Yes, and that’s what they’re doing through education with Chromebooks.
Greenwald's version is basically attacking all his co-workers as democratic partisans and contains no actual evidence, so I'm not sure what line you're drawing here
The iPads are absolutely superstars. Nothing else like them, totally agreed.

But from a strictly-monetary perspective, the issue is that they last too long. That is, they hold their value to me for years, so I don't feel any pressure to upgrade frequently, and from the stats, it appears I'm not alone.
Does any of this mean that Docker for Mac (ARM) will be less of an insane resource hog?
This is such a bad argument. We might as well call you a waste of space on earth, you’re constantly consuming energy and increasing entropy and reducing the dispersion of heat in the universe.
Do anyone have the "Opposition/Response to Motion" and "Reply to Opposition/Response" in https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/16398789/in-re-twitter-...
(Hearing on motion to dismiss has been delayed to Nov 10)
The mask came off this last year for me.

If you look, there is often a lot of video on the ground of these events, so that you can see beyond a single narrative.

In the same vein, there is a lot of video of what happened in Kenosha leading up to the shootings.
One data point: my phone was demoted to a wallet to such a degree that when I did have to replace it, I opted for an SE just for Touch ID. I also purchased an iPad and offloaded a ton of functions onto that.

This year’s phones look great, but there’s always next year’s models or the year after’s.
Some people not in swing states such as I are getting endless ads to donate to campaigns.
Much of that is due to RISC-V being quite emulation-friendly as far as ISA's go. You wouldn't guess that given e.g. the weird encoding of insn operands, but that turns out to be a minor factor in practice.
Yes, but it builds a whole lot of software that does things like hardcode "10.x" as a macOS version number or treat "ARM Darwin" as iPhone.
I think that "under 1 MB" represents the size of .NET runtime proper. However, additional required system DLLs increase the download size of a minimal application to the numbers I cited above [1]. Anyway, your example of Amazon's front page is interesting and is a good point (even though, in my quick test out of curiosity, relevant download size resulted in 2.2 MB [not authenticated] and 9.2 MB [authenticated] - quite a bit less, but still ...).

It's ironic how copyright itself prevents these companies from properly competing with "piracy". They just can't offer a better service no matter how hard they try.
I'm sure the next step will be to require annual subscriptions. Amazon Prime has already normalized it.
My opinion on the topic isn't definitive by any means, but I think a lot of projects would do just fine without allowing arbitrary hyperlinks to be added by non-admins.

I think being able to link to related issues and link into the code is still important, for example.

It's certainly a trade off, but spammers want it to be rendered as a link.
There are trends and counter-trends... email inboxes got too full so people invented Slack (and clones like Teams). Just as these are getting decent adoption, I'm reading e-mail newsletters are getting more popular again. Really?

USETNET, which Karl's post mentions, was a fantastic place
to go, because of the "pull" principle: you go there when
you want to engage, not as distraction when you would like
to focus on something else (email, Twitter). (We also had
local groups in our university labs for social and technical
interactions. This avoids the spam issues.)

Then there is the social element. On Slashdot, HN or Reddit, I don't recognize names (PG and RMS aside), but in newsgroups like comp.ai.nat-lang, comp.std.c or comp.compilers I felt I knew a small but committed crowd of
regulars (and their views) after few months.
I think it's clear that humankind won't be able to stop/reverse this process.

So, are there any realistic state-wide plans to prepare for the worst? Like, move cities away from shores, prepare for certain regions to become very hot (unsuitable for farming), etc.?
That was 4 years ago. The polarization of NYT has significantly advanced since then, culminating in the Tom Cotton op-ed, which set off an internal revolt at the Times, with staffers coordinating pushback across Twitter. This led to the resignation of James Bennet, the editor of the op-ed section, the reassignment of Jim Dao, the deputy editor, and the resignation of Bari Weiss.
Give it a few more years, and we will be even better off.
>Is it 'trash' to be upset that Hunter Biden made 600k/yr from a no-show job that looks super crooked?

Yes, and it outs you as a blinkered rube. To be upset about Hunter Biden is 110% turnip truck.

It doesn't look super-crooked unless you take the word of certain interest-conflicted sources, because sinecures happen all the time, every day, for centuries, and $600K isn't that much for something like that in this day and age. It's simply not a big deal, and thus trash.

And yeah: now do Jared.
laravel is so similar to rails, it's scary. tbh... all mvc frameworks are similar. once you know one, it's extremely easy to pick up another one even if you don't know the language.
It had to add up to something. The surprise to me is that it's a rational number.
This isn't really how it works. I mean, it won't necessarily be difficult, but having it working on ARM Linux means very little for it working on macOS.
I thought they'd already confirmed that x86_64 virtualization won't be possible on Silicon?

If so that rules out a significant number of development use cases.
what is frightening about it?
NYPost, one of the oldest and largest US newspapers

The NY Post is a tabloid. One of their headlines this week was that Miley Cyrus was once chased down by a UFO...
I'm in New Jersey which is pretty consistently and firmly blue. Hammered with ads from both sides.
Also, Kurzgesagt released a cool video about it: https://youtu.be/dSu5sXmsur4
as the users of this card will soon find out, Debit card payments are pretty much irreversible.
Why 8 years? What's stopping tech companies and media outlets from continuing to support Biden next year as strongly as they have this election season?
They already have–but not for virtualization, it's just for apps.
Valuations are forward looking - reported earnings are backward looking.
> are using thinly disguised lawyer-crafted threats

I don't think there's any other way to interpret that than "threatening litigation". You don't receive a message from a company's lawyers because they're having a friendly conversation about not intending to do anything.
In Mac sales, there was probably going to be a question of whether the announced ARM transition would osbourne Intel Mac sales (or maybe, conversely, get everybody to buy one last Intel Mac before their model was discontinued?).
That is one of so many questions that seems like a higher priority to me than Greenwald's listed questions.

This is sad to me. I appreciated Greenwald's work in bringing Snowden's information to light. Since then, I just don't know.
I'll reply to this soon (I'm short of time and neglecting other stuff).
I was curious if the value of the facial recognition startups is at risk with masks becoming more prevalent. Wouldn't be surprised if they are lobbying against mask mandates and mask enforcement as their entire business model must be at risk.
Fair point. But this is not just the Intercept. This is multiple outlets all letting their partisan affiliation interfere with their reporting. Greenwald has been bothered by this for a long while now, along with a growing list: Andrew Sullivan, Matt Taibbi, just to name a few.
>... honestly I'm not even entirely sure what it is, a game? a game engine? a 3d editor? a visual programming language? Anyway...

It's refreshing to see this kind of exploratory project.
Every now and then, I need to be reminded there's room for play and exploring in life, not just productivity and producing. Thank you for reminding me!
Time to re-activate my Disney+ by the sounds of it.
Anybody who watches much Youtube has surely seen the uptick in ads over the last year or so. That's clearly reflected in the increased revenue on that front.
Gitlab CE free edition has many plan features https://about.gitlab.com/features/#plan including Milestones, Issue Board, etc. What features is gitlab ce lacking, that makes you want to use a 3rd party planning product?
I agree with everything you've said, except the last point. The federal government has shown that it will do what's necessary to maintain the status quo. As each COVID benefit runs out, another one is added to replace it. How long can they keep this going? I don't know, but I'm not willing to bet against all the people who own 1+ homes and the politicians who represent them.

I personally delayed buying a house in Toronto since 2013, thinking that it's too hot and it can't keep going up. I missed out massively. I don't recommend young Canadians to wait, but rather buy your primary residence if you can before you're completely priced out of the market. Just don't put all your investment into housing in the GTA, it may pop one day.
I would love to learn what you folks decided on.
> we live in a political climate where foreign governments interfere in elections by spreading disinformation. In that case, an editor is absolutely correct to push back

This is paternalistic to the extreme. Do we get to vote on whether we want such a society or is it just imposed by editorial fiat?

> spread more disinformation the week before an election.

You read the draft. Could you point out the explicit falsehoods to me?

Or are you saying we should stop the spread of inconvenient opinion pieces?
Set "Touch Bar shows F1, F2, etc. Keys" for a somewhat less horrifying Touch Bar experience.
It’s a disaster though, honestly. Their partners are not very good and the support is really weak from Google. And ChromeOS, as much as I wanted to love it, just isn’t very polished. I spent a year with it and really found it lacking.

The volume purchasing story is a mess when compared to Apple’s offering.
this is where rubymine really shines, you can right click and select "goto definition" which takes you right to the class that defines the method.
This is a good explanation.

It's probably worth pointing out that basing custom prices upon a buyer's perceived value of the item rather than the item's cost of production will usually generate higher levels of profit.
The draft itself also has a not insignificant amount of leaps of faith that are not helpful in the current environment:

"Beyond that, the Journal's columnist Kimberly Strassel reviewed a stash of documents..."---this is an opinion article, why isn't the newsroom covering this explosive story?

"All of these new materials, the authenticity of which has never been disputed by Hunter Biden or the Biden campaign"---absence of a denial is not proof of its validity.

"Facebook, through a long-time former Democratic Party operative, vowed to suppress the story pending its “fact-check,” one that has as of yet produced no public conclusions."---an unnamed source told me that Facebook is really trying to push the election to Biden…

Even if Greenwald is sincere in his attempts to daylight the truth, he increasingly seems unaware or unwilling to accept that he might be or is being used as a useful idiot by foreign agents.
I have a rule of thumb with Apple: get the fourth iteration of any new offering.

I don't always apply it, admittedly: I ordered a HomePod the day they were announced.

But you'd have to pay me to be part of the first wave of A series Macs. Second is a maybe, third, I'd consider it, by the fourth I'm positively looking forward to it.

I'm glad there are people like you, who are willing to shake the bugs out on my behalf ;)
The new 27" iMacs have been in relatively low stock as well online and from resellers.

The features there + uncertain concerns about Apple Silicon for iMacs pushed me to get one and I've been very happy with it.
Given how many spambots I come across on popular pages’ comment sections, and folks with a separate work account, I’m fairly skeptical on those numbers.
Google will need to learn what customer service is to get any traction in corporate land. I can get decent support from an actual person with a single MS subscription. With google for business we can't even get an email address.
YT is certainly different than Netflix but I would put YT above Netflix on potential.

I think YT is much more valuable to human civilization in general. If we consider it as a knowledge bank which has everything from learning a new recipe to something as specific as operating a drill to empowering content like lecture videos on coursework. Recently I saw professional quality BBC like nature documentaries on YT.

The importance of it is far more and that's why I think the subscription revenue potential is also far more.

Whether they can convince people to go ad free and pay for it is a different matter. My friend who pays for Apple Music, Netflix, Disney+, iCloud and a bunch of other subscriptions was complaining about YT ads. It boggled my mind that considering his usage, he didn't pay for the premium plan.
Week #3 of 4: How to go from $0 to $1k
Also European, but again: that's not how truth works.
You know friend, I understand how you feel. When I look out at the world, I see so much garbage that I can’t even believe it.

Then I hang out with my four year old. She doesn’t understand racism, politics or climate. But she knows that she really likes everyone, respects others pronouns and likes sharing what she has.

There’s hope. As cynical as I am, there is hope. And the fact that you feel so strongly fills me with as much hope as watching my little one learn about the fucked up planet she’s inheriting.
Well, they thrived enough to pose a serious challenge to Vikings in Greenland - and might have been a big part of their eventual downfall there.
I've got a 2017 MBP and am planning to get rid of it before the 4 year keyboard service program ends on it.

My iPad Pro has become my default mobile device, so I'd prefer to get something like a Mac Mini and am hoping they have something worth buying. The current Mac Mini is just a hard no at this point.
