We'll be producing builds early next year. Those won't be anything we're recommending for production. Our goal is to have an early alpha in our own cloud environment by the end of Q1. I stress alpha. But we'll also have a bunch of tooling around it (which we've already built for the other parts of our cloud product) to backup data out of band, monitor it, shadow test it against production workloads, etc.

We're also building on top of the work of a bunch of others that have built Arrow and libraries within the Rust ecosystem.

When the open source GAs, I don't really know. But we're doing this out in the open so people can see, comment, and maybe even contribute. Who knows, maybe after a few years you'll be a convert ;)
+1 to this, although I can say that if I had caller ID, I probably wouldn’t have answered unknown numbers, even when I was growing up.
Agree wholeheartedly!

Void my warranty, boot with a scary splash screen, whatever, but don’t lock me out of the thing I ostensibly own. Or, maybe change the “buy” button to a “license to use” button in your store.
> Adobe Premiere Pro barely works on 32GB, let alone 16GB

Which is why I use Final Cut Pro. It was a little sluggish from time to time on my Air with 8GB of RAM, now on my mid-2015 MBP with 16GB of RAM it never stutters or slows down. Editing 1080p.
You can do that on the intel macbook air.
I need my ESC, so I'm glad it's there. As for the rest of the keys on the top row, I was not in the habit of using them except in vim, where I hooked them up to some macros I had written. For them, I kind of like the touchbar now, because I have the fake keys labelled with sensible names. (No more trying to remember that I have to hit F3 to do such-and-such.)

I've also found the touchbar pretty useful in zoom calls, because my zoom client shows keys for common actions.

All in all, I think a physical escape key plus the touchbar is a slight win. I would not pay more for it, but I have reversed my previous opinion that I'd pay more not to have it.

I suspect these new machines are going to be quite nice, although I won't buy one for a while since I purchased a mbp a few months ago.
>If he waits until he gets out to cash out, he could be hugely in the green 9 years later.

This could be a good general strategy for people going to prison. Say you have $10,000 and you're going to be locked up for ten years. May as well convert it to bitcoin and hope it multiplies by ten again by the time you get out.
Every business customer should now sue zoom for the full cost of what they previously paid.
The two-port and four-port 13" MacBook Pros have been separate product lines since their introduction. This new A1 MBP only replaces the two-port version. Presumably the higher-end one will share an upgraded processor with the 16".
Being able to vote anonymously and without regard for being shamed by your neighbours is a feature, not a bug, and one of the last protections against democracy being hijacked by intimidation and mass groupthink.

I have plenty of beliefs I'm not ashamed of on a personal level, that I think are noble, wholesome, and just, that I sure as fuck don't want my employer knowing.

People are bigots. It's not just bad beliefs that are judged harshly.
Even the videos at the latest WWDC have been really challenging. For example, the videos showing new Document Driven apps in SwiftUI never released their sample code as a lot of developers sought here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/651193. They really just presented a glorified demo and a few slides.

And yet the old approach for Document Driven Apps is completely out of date straight from the banner page here: https://developer.apple.com/document-based-apps/ (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/samplecode/Shape...). As mentioned in a lot of comments, there's a real desire to build apps natively but held back by bugs and the lack of entry through even sample code.
OK, 8 cores, but big little config, so probably 4x A53 + 4x A72. So nothing revolutionary new here IMHO. Where is the 16 core A72 SoC we all want?

Doubt it. $800k is not a lot of money in the investment ecosystem.
Because Trump told all his base to NOT vote by mail.
True, and I do like this a lot. There's a great ecosystem, and the examples are usually pretty good.

But it's also just as easy to get stranded with missing features or features that aren't on both Android and iOS. I did a bunch of geolocation and mapping a while back and I had to write my own support for things like heatmaps. This was eventually merged into the react native maps library, but it is something that can happen if you're doing anything slightly exotic.
By all means, let us get rid of all of these things.

Unfortunately the American people voted otherwise. See what Harris was up to in CA. Expect it to be rolled out nationwide. Biden created the laws that made it possible. They are a right pair.

And "faster than the latest Intel mobile CPU".

Note they say "latest", not "best". That means that a Celeron 5205U, dual core processor with 1.9GHz, no turbo, no hyper threading, 2MB L1, would be a valid baseline.

LinkedIn has a feature now called LinkedIn salaries if I recall. Pretty cool to get metrics of salaries around your area and at companies you may have interest in. Gives you a decent picture of the pay scale for your job.
Must be finger positioning. I hit the TouchBar accidentally several times a day, each of which was infuriating, until I managed to semi-disable it by turning it into a row of inferior function keys.
I agree that the cameras are subpar. I wonder if Apple figures that most Mac users already have an iPhone, and that if they want to use a better camera for videoconferencing, they can always just plug in their iPhone and use it as the camera.

Has anyone done this? I've considered using my iPad Pro's camera this way but have never cared enough to actually do it.
I found this to be surprisingly nuanced and accurate. Reading this gives me an entirely different impression of Jack Ma's intelligence and perspective, especially after I watched his disastrous debate/talk with Elon Musk.

> [The Basel Accords], more like a seniors club, is about solving the problem of an aging financial system that has been operating for decades, and Europe’s aging system is extremely complex. But the problem in China is the opposite: it is not a problem of systemic financial risk, because China's financial sector basically doesn’t have a system. Its risk is actually a "lack of financial system."

This article totally misses the point of what subscription fatigue is: the administrative burden of keeping track of recurring payments to various services which may no longer be wanted, needed, or can be afforded, and the fear of the renewal of one of these services causing sudden and surprising financial strain.

As such, subscriptions DO compete with each other, although the author contends that they do not.

When I buy any single good in a normal transaction, I pay and then I forget about it and my relationship with the vendor and the transaction. It's complete. It's over.

When I purchase a subscription I must remember to cancel it at which time I no longer need or want it, and I need to remember to keep an eye on the charges to make sure that they are what was agreed to at the time the subscription began and have not risen due to a rising sticker price or fees which were not advertised to me. This has a mental cost.

In personal practical terms, this means I'll only subscribe to a few streaming services at a time. I can't watch more than one or two VOD services in a given month. If if my VOD desires change, since I want to mentally track as few subscriptions as possible, I will cancel one of the existing subscriptions to make room for something new.

In this situation, I have e.g. Netflix competing with Amazon for a "subscription slot" in my mind, but Netflix doesn't deliver toilet paper. Guess which account I cancelled six months ago, and which one I still have?

Consciousness is a property we ascribe to our own awareness of our awareness. As we are part of the universe, if consciousness is a thing, it is then a property of the universe, not just the human mind.

The human mind is a plastic, adaptive system, which is shaped by senses that consume the universe and which attempt to model the universe. It is past and present interlocked - causality, bound up in tight knots of matter.

This is the universe, being aware of itself. It is perhaps not capable of being understood, just reveled in.
Unfortunately with no native x86 support, true x86 virtualization goes away.

True virtualization will be for ARM (such as Linux or macOS, maybe embedded Win10 for ARM) VMs only. x86 Windows VMs will not work with native ARM virtualization, and x86 apps will run slowly if at all under emulation in ARM Win10.

However, Parallels (and VMware etc.) could potentially leverage Rosetta 2 to run x86 VMs in emulation on ARM, at greatly reduced speed compared to native x86 virtualization on intel Macs.

Boot Camp for x86 Windows is dead on these machines as well.

Within Stoicism there is a boundary - one which forms a major critique of it - of what one can and cannot control.

The thing is, when we speak of status quo acceptance, it lies independently of control. If you are unhappy, but it is within your power to protest, then the Stoic rationale would be to do that, since it is within your control.

But likewise if there are things that seem beyond your ability or energy to protest, you still have an inner world which you control, and that is one that you can only be deprived of through your death.

In this light the stoic is necessarily against status quo thinking, which would have you subscribe to the thinking of "us versus them" and drown out that inner world with external crisis and reaction to events, rather than proactive change.

It's all in where you draw the boundary, and that's where the critique lies: Who's to say how much you really control?
True. It definitely feels like I need to hit the right keywords to have a chance.
Ah yes, of course, hi Nevi :). Thank you again for all your work on the Rust implementation. We're obviously big fans.

Gandiva bindings is definitely something we should look into, but I'm guessing there's much lower hanging fruit within DataFusion in terms of optimizing, particularly for our use case.
There was a model even with the touchbar that only had two ports and one fan. the four port model got you more cores and two fans, quite a different computer internally despite sharing the same shape and 13" macbook pro label. very confusing for consumers.
That’s interesting, considering I would be far more likely to dodge an in-person poll than any other type. If I see anyone with a clipboard asking people if they’re registered voters, I give a wide berth.
You don't have to look hard at the git flow diagram to see the redundancy. It's plain as day. Of course I'm talking about today. Why would I be talking about 20 years ago? We have continuous integration and automated build pipelines so there's no reason to have your build artifacts living in the git repository. git is for source code. There are other solutions better suited to storing artifacts.
If they do this 10 times, they will establish a well-known reputation for being founder friendly. This would cost $8M.

Will the impact a founder-friendly reputation has on deal flow and close rate increase their fund's ROI by 0.8%? Almost certainly.
Why just those states, though? Other states show more-or-less similar distributions of in-person to mail-in ballots. It's only these handful of swing states (WI, MI, PA, NV, GA) that have such a massively different ratio of votes in-person vs. mail-in.

RAM limits are pretty easy to explain. 16GB chips cost disproportionately more and use more power.

Yes the iPad is "crippled" in that sense, but I find it's an excellent accessory to a computer. Not everything I do needs a terminal, my Python scripts, favorite text editor, and rapid multitasking. The iPad is a wonderful (albeit expensive) side device for lighter activities on the couch, in the kitchen, or on the go.

It doesn't need to be our only computing device to be appreciated, and not every computing device needs to be powerful.

No. Without the existence of Go, I would not have gotten my last job, we would not have built the platform we did, I would not have seen the opportunity and ability to build such a business. It's all a chain of events that occur because a technology exists that enables it. If Go didn't exist my path would be very different.
In my opinion the NYT has been the clearest and most unrelenting source of anti-Trumpism in the Trump era, and continues to push hard as Trump is not showing signs of letting go. Historically this may play out as NYT devolving into a hopelessly polarized sensationalist pseudo news source, but it could be cemented as a clear stand against despotic inclinations in the Presidency when few others were so determined.

while it certainly hurts to be Intel right now, be aware that the generation notation does not mean what it used to. They just mark new generations, not actual transistor size. Intel's 10nm is roughly equivalent to TSMC 7mn, and Intel 7nm should be equivalent to TSMC 5nm. So yes, Intel is behind, but not as much as it might seem.
Your marriage sounds like it's completely dysfunctional and a living hell. Finances and work balance aside, the bit about the legal trouble is quite the red flag.

Last time I checked the TDP/frequency curve of Apple's chips was unimpressive [0]. If you crank it up to 4Ghz it's going to be as "bad" or even worse than a Ryzen CPU in terms of power consumption per core. There is no free lunch. Mobile chips simply run at a lower frequency and ARM SoCs usually have heterogenous cores.

>but this is an architecture that the PC market needs to be scared of.

This just means you know nothing about processor performance or benchmarks. If it was that easy to increase performance by a factor of 3x why hasn't AMD done so? Why did they only manage a 20% increase in IPC instead of your predicted 200%?

My response to anybody that downvotes and disagrees with the parent comment is to just wait and see for yourself how long it'll take for the NYT or your news source of choice to ever report a negative story about Biden. Every day you read the news try to take a look through and find a negative story. I guarantee you the day will never come.

It absolutely blows my mind that people can say something like "CNN is relatively unbiased", and yet nearly 100% of every (political) story follows the same pattern: In the last four years I don't remember a single CNN headline that was positive of Trump. Of course you can say that he's a complete screw up that never once in four years did a single positive thing, but if you're honest with yourself, you know that's not true. The same way that in the next four years they won't publish a single negative article about Biden, but that doesn't mean he's a saint that never once did anything that could be reported on negatively. That people can't see how insanely biased these sources are really blows my mind. The proof is there for you to see - how many months or years will it take before you see a single negative story about Biden?

I think the touchbar was my favorite part of my old MBP, specifically because of the contextual buttons that are always changing.

I'd probably pay a little extra to get one on future non-Mac laptops, but not too much extra.
Thanks, I'm careful. Unfortunately, that stress reduces the fun and frequency.
Weirdly enough, this tends to be where Apple's docs are still good. They fall apart when you try to move on from it towards Swift & co.

Granted, _finding_ the ObjC old docs can be a pain in the ass, but it's possible. I've literally found answers to some of my questions in OS release notes and nowhere else; part of being an AppKit/etc developer winds up being simply knowing how to search.

Another complaint I have: depending on what era of documentation you need, you often have to qualify your searches differently - e.g, OS X vs macOS.
Everyone I know who claims Trump is racist can quickly and easily point to specific policies, quotes, and actions - both before and during his presidency.

This meme that people don't have evidence for their issues with Trump is not only false, it's comedically ironic.
His description of the world’s ailments is quite accurate, yes. His prescription for them, a big data-based credit system, seems frustratingly Chinese. Only time will tell if his futuristic system is the right way forward though.
"Part of it is that it's really hard to show a causal link between the docs we create and developer success"

Yep, high traffic to a dev doc web page is ambiguous. Is it because it's really good? Is it because it's bad and people keep coming back trying to understand it? Or is the documentation fine but the API being documented is just hard to use?
Do you think the bulk of voters for Trump believe one of these things? He won a considerable number of votes.

> Is it allowed to tell wives who push husbands like that to get jobs themselves?

Certainly its a sign that much better communication is needed in the relationship (and probably, honestly, should have happened before the relationship proceeded to either children or marriage, but aside from warning to people not yet in the situation [0], that's kind of moot.)

That communication probably needs to be a lot more nuanced than "tell wives [...] to get jobs themselves".

> Is it really believed that housework is as hard and stressful as a tech job?

Having done both, I believe it. Of course, there's probably people for whom housework is less or a tech job more "hard and stressful" than is the case for me.

> I feel like we're not really supposed to voice that aloud, but how else is that to be challenged?

Why should it be challenged? Winning some abstract argument about the generalized relative strenuousness of different activities doesn't seem particularly useful.

What is needed in a relationship is mutual communication and working arrangement that functions well for the two parties involved. Abstract generalities are mostly a distraction.
