Most phones aren't redlining the battery when brand new. There's degradation but it only affects battery life. By the time you have performance impacts you're typically in "replace the battery" territory.
For the sake of argument, let's go with your framing: the device starts out at "120%" performance, then degrades to "100%".

The argument others have raised still applies. If Apple had informed users about the transition from 120% to 100%, some portion of users would have enjoyed the 120% experience so much that they would have replaced their batteries in order to get back to 120%. Apple concealed that option by not informing users about the change.

Microsoft should offer to fund the driver development – either develop the drivers themselves, or pay Apple to do it (this assumes that Apple would be willing to cooperate with either option.)

Getting Windows ARM to work on Apple hardware would do a lot to build mindshare on Windows ARM and contribute to the success of Windows on the ARM platform.

Microsoft needs this much more than Apple does.
This is an awesome news. Thanks to the team at Tailwind.

I migrated a big-ish project to TailwindCSS about a year and a half. I like it for the fact that I can train juniors to be productive and part of the big project quickly while the experienced developers can graduate to using it as a utility for their styles.

For those worrying about not being able to work on the type scales, etc. I would suggest trying to use Tailwind as your utility and write your own SCSS.

Try this out for your Styles.

1. Includes Tailwind CSS.

2. Create separate components for repeatedly used set of Tailwind classes. See examples at https://github.com/valinorearth/valinor.earth/tree/master/sr...

This is our Startup's website built in the open. A bit overkill but was our attempt to do a multi-lingual Static Site with 11ty + Tailwind + AWS s3 + Cloudfront + Github Actions/CI and other interesting toolsets.

For instance,

.button {
@apply inline-block py-2 px-4;
@apply no-underline bg-water-600 text-white;
@apply border border-water-600 rounded;
@apply transition duration-100 ease-in-out transform;
@apply leading-tight;
}

For any number of team-size, I suggest maintaining design-tokens in the Tailwind Config. Of course, do post-process your styles with the likes of PostCSS — postcss-import, autoprefixer, etc.

For those asking for simpler CSS/Styles, I believe Tailwind might not be the right one for you. I don’t really write codes these days (quite a few years actually) but I tend to do a lot of marketing landing pages, brochures-types for prospective customers, and throw-away prototypes.

These days, I like the plethora of classless CSS available for me to choose from. I might have even created one for our internal use based off the NordTheme color palette (will try extending it with TailWind). Here are some of them for you to start off - https://github.com/dbohdan/classless-css

I have come back full circle and now just write in plain CSS for the marketing pages. I was once a purist and started with tools such as Hotdog Professional, Ultradev as an IDE.

Tools such as Tailwind has their places and we are standardizing it for all of our websites, customer dashboard, admin, etc. Check out the Tailwind’s own TailwindUI at https://tailwindui.com
I love this article.

Does anyone have suggestions on starting down this path as someone that understands programming but has forgotten all the high school biology I learned?

I love the way I can now learn new programming frameworks. Read small bit by bit projects that build up slowly and teach the important components. Svelte for example. Solving problems and practicing the techniques are the best way for me to memorize things and then apply them to my own projects.

Is there anything similar that could start me down this path?

I'm less interested in videos like the Ninja Nerd. They look great, but it isn't a way of learning that sticks with me.
It is awesome that you're getting started in this community! Here are just a few very biased recommendations of interesting folks for your podcast:

There are a bunch of different cliches (community bio vs biohacking vs citizen bio vs grinders vs transhumanists are all VERY different), but I'd recommend checking out a few of the conferences. iGEM is going on right now which is super cool, and BioHTP and Biosummit are 2 I always recommend. Since you're into fungi, there are a few cool folks in the DIYbio community you might want to talk to - Rolando Cruz Perez (in Endy Lab right now, off to do amazing fungi things soon! PhD on standardizing fungi growth conditions for distribution of strains) and Phil Ross (Mycoworks CTO, extremely eccentric, very artist, supremely interesting)

If you haven't followed them, David Ishee on Facebook+Twitter and Sebastian Cocioba on Facebook are also real good to follow. I love David's spirit+integrity of hacking and science, and Sebastian radiates an aurora of childlike wonder (specifically in plants) that is inspiring but calming. Might want to also give Josiah Zayner a follow, he is an interesting case of definitely knows-what-he-is-doing but still extremely controversial. He's a generous and kind guy though, and it is extremely respectable what he does.

Gabriel Licinia is another interesting individual in the DIYbio community you might want to reach out to - him and Justin Atkin (the thought emporium on youtube) are some of the few folks who actually do things in the community. Real science and real cool. Gabe is the local angry man who'll always tell ya if something is BS on the DIYbio facebook groups. Those 2 also work with Andreas Stuermer, who is a fantastic DNA designer. Those 3 are quite a superpower.

On the startup side, I'd recommend checking out Ryan Bethencourt's stuff. He is a great guy, transitioned from diy->startup stuff, and often helps others do too. I personally like Elliot Roth's company Spira and what they are doing with cyanobacteria and photosynthetic organisms. The future is cyanobacteria!

On the non-profit side, I really like what the BioBricks Foundation is doing and what the Open Bioeconomy Lab is doing.

Hope some of those things help! Glad your P.olymerase C.rap R.eaction worked - GMO yeast is easier IMO, just follow the culture timings and you'll be fine. Also Sanger is terrible, and Nanopore is awesome. I'd be happy to talk with you too if you'd like - I've been around for a bit, and I love helping other people get started in these communities!

PS: on your website you say you want to "Learn to navigate GenBank". Please be prepared to be disappointed.
Addenda - my numbers are wrong.

I was including lightning strikes in the AU numbers, but the US numbers were electrical (lines, domestic, construction, etc) only.

So fatality ratios skew higher in the USA than AU, at least. The numbers are quite low in both cases, so the ostensible safety benefits of 110V at 15-20A may not be terribly compelling in practice.
I had a friend that went to Waldorf school. All in all, he ended up not knowing anything and got such bad SAT scores he couldn't go to college. He was really upset, blaming his parents for ruining his life by sending him to a school in which you don't end up actually learning anything.
It's probably more that people who don't have the right training/have not passed various exams and certifications are not allowed to do certain things in finance. You can't sell securites if you haven't passed the Series 7 exams, for example.

I suffer from pretty bad depression and have been battling with it for a while using all available treatments. Someone recommended I try psilocybin mushrooms. I learned how to grow them, grew them and then had my wife help facilitate a safe well-intentioned trip using 7g of dried mushrooms. Happy to answer any questions about it. It was a profound experience. It isn't a cure but it's certainly a tool in my toolbox that has helped reshaped my life in a real and lasting way.
Your sarcasm reflects back on you, as explained by my concurrent edit to my point, which I will repeat here: Occam's razor is not, as Wikipedia claims, a matter of "the simplest explanation is usually the right one": it is a matter of eliminating premises that are not explaining anything beyond what can already be explained. Your armchair "hypothesis" that, in about 1000 years, gravity will cease to function entirely, is not something that needs to be explained.
One of the benefits of UBI that nobody mentions often enough is that when everybody can afford to survive independently of a boss, labor will be priced according to how unpleasant or dangerous it is to perform, rather than according to the desperation of the class performing it.

My big concern with my Mac isn't that I want to run Linux (or ack! Windows) on it. If I was buying a PC for Windows or Linux, I'd buy something else.

My big concern is that in 10 years+ or so, it's likely my Mac won't be supported by Apple any more and there is a good chance it'll still be running. Right now I'm pretty sure I can still bodge together a Linux distro to run on my old iMac G4 sitting in my garage.

IMO that is where Apple supporting booting alternative OSs is the most important bit. In 10 years (heck maybe 5 years), it's likely many of the drivers and whatnot will have been reverse engineered and we'll be able to boot up Linux and get another 10+ years out of it.
This is funny - it clearly points to Intel & AMD as the culprits to why we didn't have a CUDA alternative for this long. Not Nvidia as long reviled.

If Apple can work with...Google to get their framework changed for the M1, then there is absolutely no excuse for Intel/AMD. They had a decade to fix this.

They deserve their fate.
It comes down to what you mean by anti-competitive. If you mean illegally anti-competitive then there’s a debate to be had. If you mean “anti-competitive” in the sense that they don’t offer their entire code base MIT licensed, then 100% they are anti-competitive in that sense, and they have every right to choose to be.

To somewhat oversimplify, you are allowed to not invite competitors to sell to your customers in your own backyard. Unless you are a monopoly. Because then that “backyard” isn’t rightfully yours to control.

At the moment I am inclined to believe the iPhone is Apple’s own backyard and they should have dominion over what happens there.

If you want to confiscate Apple’s backyard, you do it at the risk that you damage a company that has done a great service for the world, and a company that IMO deserves the benefit of controlling its own destiny and should be left to continue innovating on its own terms.

If someone thinks they can do better then there’s trillions of dollars in market cap on the line and I welcome them to try. Apple won’t stop them from trying, but will certainly compete fiercely on the merits.

Encyclopedic knowledge can be a great tool, no question about it! I think of it as memoization for the brain.

It may well turn out to be that some problem you are attacking could be simplified if you only knew that piece of "trivia", but if you don't know it you need to spend some brainpower re-discovering the thing instead of attacking the main problem.

The way I think about the learning / performance is a bit like an RPG game. Encyclopedic knowledge is just another bar to fill in, with the corresponding trade offs.

They have invested and it works pretty well. But CUDA has such a huge lead and is the default. Most users dont care about the hardware but they also dont care enough about the cost. And the really price sensitive users are running their own clusters under their desks using gaming GPU’s.

Not OP, but, I've only ever used online resources -

- https://www.musictheory.net/ is surprisingly good for the basics; their apps are good quality.

- https://www.reddit.com/r/musictheory/ used to have a lot of rabbit holes that were fascinating, but not sure what the community is like now. From a quick look it could still be a useful place to lurk.

- The Youtube channels 12tone, Sideways, 8-Bit Music Theory and Nahre Sol are my go-tos now that I'm no longer in active learning mode. Music Matters, Adam Neely and Signals Music Studio are also good. There are others in the Youtube sphere too but those are the channels I'm most familiar with.

- Music composition videos and classes also tend to be fairly theory-heavy without advertising it overtly.

All that tells me is that other phones aren't getting the most out of new batteries, and are instead limiting themselves to the performance of an old battery. But yes, I agree, they should have permitted replacements - in fact replacements should have been permitted at home. Batteries deserve to be user serviceable.
Doing biology, as in culturing cells and performing biochemical assays does not come cheap. Software and wetware development are totally different ball games in terms of upfront costs and risk levels. Just building a wetware proof of concept without university resources is non-trivial in terms of the resources it requires. I don't think biology fits at all in the standard startup model.

> Let's not forget that Apple moved to ARM Macs not only for increased profit...

Apple's profit margins have been pretty consistent for the past 20 years. That isn't going to change now. Though it's likely looking at the performance numbers Apple will make more profit due to increased sales.

> but also to exert even more control over Mac desktops

Well yes, but "more control" in this case means they can do take the CPU in a direction which suits them. Things like moving RAM, neural engine, and Secure Enclave into the main SOC.

> and turn them into ios like spying client terminals where you can't run anything on it not approved by Apple or without their knowledge.

Now we're veering into tin-foil hat territory.
Big problem with the field of biology, like Peter Thiel says, is it's the science field people go into to avoid math.
>The internal storage is fine if you're buying physical copies of games

Well, sure, if you're only buying physical. However, that's not really something you can expect in these days. The Switch has 26 GB of usable storage. That's not a lot considering Breath of the Wild is over 13 GB.

The Xbox One and PS4 come with at least 500 GB. Even if you account for the fact that the download sizes there are larger, there's still much more space proportionally, so you're going to be spending more money to get the full experience on a Switch.

>I also think the JoyCon grips are fine for TV play

It's pretty much the worst controller out there. Not only is it incredibly uncomfortable, it's rather unreliable. The drift issue on the Joy-cons is pretty noted. And once again coming to the controller price issue, the Pro Controller is $70, Joy-cons are $80, where as the Xbox and PlayStation ones are $60, and there's much less of a need to get one since there's one in the box for you already.

>while I'd also recommend a screen protector, I don't know anyone else who has one IRL

I don't know if there are any people who haven't actually gotten screen protectors, especially since it was reported that sliding the device in and out of the dock may incur scratches on the screen. When one of the basic features of the devices can result in scratches, you really want one.

>whatever the proper cost of games should be, I don't think it's healthy for games as a medium that they loose a third of their value in a few months

I'm not exactly sure if it's healthy for old games to retain their value better than stocks. I don't think it's good for consumers if they're still going to be paying brand new game price for BotW couple of years later when it's a five-year-old game.

Really, speaking from experience, I have a PS4 and a Switch. For the PS4, the only accessory that I've had to buy was a charging dock, and I don't really consider it an essential one. I could charge with a cable just fine, but the dock is just a bit nicer and looks a bit better. For the Switch however, I've had to buy an SD card, case, screen protector and a Pro Controller, all of which I consider pretty necessary to get the full experience.

This is not a great analogy. Sure people go to Starbucks for one off coffees and sure some do that exclusively. But almost every startup to enterprise company has an expresso machine in the kitchen.

So in most cases, if I want a coffee I don't go to Starbucks. They I go to the kitchen, it's faster, cheaper, and more convenient than going to Starbucks.

However, if I'm out and about it doesn't make sense for me to invest in temporary coffee infrastructure. In those cases it's easier to go to a cafe like Starbucks.

This matches the idea of the article. If you have consistent demand it makes sense to buy infrastructure to meet that demand. But if the project is temporary or extremely bursty it may make sense to have someone else do it for you.
> The main problem is this "feature" wasn't out in the open, but again, it just doesn't seem that bad to me.

It seems pretty bad to me. If they had told customers "Hey, we're slowing down your phone because your battery needs replacement", most would pay $100 for a battery replacement and happily continue using their phone for another 2-3 years. Apple phones last a long time. By hiding it, a non-zero number of customers chose to upgrade their phone which netted
Apple > $100/ customer. It's obvious why Apple chose to hide it.
So under this data sharing agreement where the US is sharing data with them, would you say the Danish FE would be failing at their job if they weren't using this system to target American politicians?

TBH, I don't see any difference.
Or slow the phone down and inform the customer their phone is running in "Reduced mode" or whatever due to their battery being old. It's honestly not that hard.
Nations should spy on enemies, not friends, lest they find themselves without friends.

Also spies should not be used for the benefit of corporations (in this case arms dealers) under cover of ‘national security’.
I’m a Danish citizen. The story doesn’t really surprise me (given the news a few years back that US spy on EU MPs in Brussels by eavesdropping Belgian telcos). The worst part is the complete apathy from Danish politicians to stand up against this kind of spying and take action. It’s completely unacceptable and should be prosecuted; yet none of the centrist parties are interested in or motivated by standing up against the US and their illegal activities.
I think the scope of your consideration is a bit narrow. Lockheed Martin probably isn't very interested in stealing technology from Sukhoi to clone and put in their own jets. However it seems quite likely that Lockheed has an interest in the particulars of Sukhoi jets, their weapon systems, radars and EW systems, and airframe capabilities, so that Lockheed may better design systems meant to counter those systems. Certainly the design of effective stealth aircraft required knowledge of opposition radar systems.

As for the American military being top dog by a long mile... that seems true, but you don't stay that way by being complacent.
The Future of Social (Participation)
> In older versions of pip, it is possible for pip to install a package which does not satisfy the declared requirements of another installed package. For example, in pip 20.0, pip install "six<1.12" "virtualenv==20.0.2" does the wrong thing, “successfully” installing six==1.11, even though virtualenv==20.0.2 requires six>=1.12.0,<2 (defined here). The new resolver, instead, outright rejects installing anything if it gets that input.

Shouldn't there be a --force flag of some kind? I know there's another flag, but the name "legacy-resolver" makes it sound like it won't be around forever.

The situation isn't so much asking PIP to revert to an old resolver, so much as it is telling PIP that I know what I'm doing and it should get out of the way.
