>If publishing and consuming content are low-friction events, and censoring that content is impossible

I no longer believe that. Your page is going to be hosted somewhere. Some registrar will need to maintain your domain. Your DNS records will be registered by someone. You're going to be interacting with payment processors. You're going to buying power from some utility company. Your spouse may be working in a brick-and-mortar location. All of those (and more) are vectors for attack for censors whether they be government or activists. They just need to label your speech as dangerous or evil or something ridiculous and publicly shame you, your spouse, your spouse's employer and anyone that does business with you to see how little protection a new technical platform gives you.

We've gotten away with this up to now because of the meteoric rise of the internet, but it's been figured out now.

Notion supports latex, images, markdown out of the box and is easy to maintain as well.

In the US fuel prices are low enough to just not worry about the difference in fuel consumption. Especially for people shopping for the $40,000+ models. Several thousands gallons over the life of the vehicle or so.
Just as an aside: This seems like a very unfair characterisation of Wittgenstein to me. His writing can be almost mathematical, but it can also be very poetic, playful and funny. Appreciating his writing might be a matter of taste, but it seems clear to me that his writing had a lot of "poetical ambition". How we use language was one of his primary concerns and he clearly cared a lot about how he himself wrote. In Philosophische Untersuchungen I see a lot of warmth in his writing. Often it seems like he is talking very personally to the reader like he would to a friend.

From quick googling it seems like I am not alone in my view of Wittgenstein as a poetic philosopher, see e.g.

This is based off of Apple’s new Virtualization.framework introduced in Big Sur that lets you spin a Linux VM with half a dozen lines of code. The technology is still in its infancy (minimal emulated devices; not sure if there’s even a framebuffer) and I’d wait for something like Docker running on Hypervisor.framework (lower level APIs but more mature).

Spotify Status GIFs
I'm not sure that's true. At least in my experience, Bootcamp seemed almost designed to cripple Windows by contrast to OS X

The last time I used it (the last MBP with Ethernet built in. I want to say 2012 or 2013?) some of the features "missing" in Bootcamp

- No EFI booting. Instead we emulate a (very buggy!) BIOS

- No GPU switching. Only the hot and power hungry AMD GPU is exposed and enabled

- Minimal power and cooling management. Building Gentoo in a VM got the system up to a recorded 117 degrees Celsius in Speccy!

- Hard disk in IDE mode only, not SATA! Unless you booted up OS X and ran some dd commands on the partition table to "trick" it into running as a SATA mode disk

The absolute, crushing cynic in me has always felt that this was a series of intentional steps. Both a "minimum viable engineering effort" and a subtle way to simply make Windows seem "worse" by showing it performing worse on a (forgive the pun) "Apples to Apples" configuration. After all, Macs are "just Intel PC's inside!" so if Windows runs worse, clearly that's a fault of bad software rather than subtly crippled hardware

>In economics, "rational expectations" are model-consistent expectations, in that agents inside the model are assumed to "know the model" and on average take the model's predictions as valid.

Still seems to be overdoing the rational bit when something like 1/3 of americans believe in ghosts, UFOs and so on.
9 Useful PHP Tips and Code Snippets That Get The Jobs Done
This is Hacker News. If getting Linux running for the first time on a completely new cpu/soc running just with the help of the barebones API from Apple isn't hacking, I don't know. When Parallels ships their ready-done product, it gets much less exciting, but for now it is pretty interesting.

#4 is fundamentally incompatible with the walled garden and becoming a dev device under your full control, and makes the author seem a little bit in fantasy land.

The whole point of iPad and iPhone's controls are to prevent unsupervised, uncontrolled usage of the device. Apple is going to let you have unrestricted access to the cell phone chip and radio?

I thought this for a long time. Then recently I heard another argument here on HN: the purpose of these draconian anti-development rules is to prevent bait-and-switch apps from existing. That is, apps that behave one way under App Store review and then completely change behaviour after normal users purchase them. Think: Volkswagen emissions cheating scandal type stuff.

>No taxes on EVs. Subsidies to the tune of 10000€. Per private purchase. There are certain types of lower end EV (like Renault Zoe) that can be purchased effectively for nearly free right now.

big if true, please point me towards this subsidy because I would like a free car
No one (or rather, very few, where a carbon tax exists) is paying for the externalities of burning fossil fuels (a subsidy), and jurisdictions are rapidly moving to outlaw new combustion vehicle sales (California by 2035, the UK by 2030, etc).

If enough jurisdictions enact a hard deadline ban, automakers will have no choice but to rapidly retool for EV only manufacturing. We’re right at the precipice of the inflection point. Pushing for these deadlines in a few more large markets will push us over the edge.

Obligatory ask: If this is important to you, contact your government representatives and demand a timetable for combustion vehicle phaseout in your jurisdiction.

I can only speak for myself. I have a second home in a remote area with a very bad gravel road. In winter, when there is snow, I was frequently unable to get there.

Then I bought a SUV. It's a 4WD with and ample trunk. Now I can use my property to my liking according to my job time constraints rather then weather conditions.

But I sense your sub-sonic tone. I think the vast majority of SUV owners lives in a city with perfect snow removal in winter (if there even is snow at all) which hardly justifies owning such an ineffective car.

"If you're not a really good C++ developer, you can shoot yourself in the foot and bring an entire project down."

I'm tired of hearing this and other myths like "C++ is for geniuses". When are we going to acknowledge that managers only care about shipping feature fast regardless of the quality of the codebase? I work professionally with "productive languages" and I could claim the same thing about javascript and others.

On this article it is very clear that companies won't invest in proper training, quoting: "Most Java developers are web developers and are used to modelling things they can see" and "We began by hiring people from trading floors, but have more recently hired Masters and PhD students"

This is a culture problem, not a language one. If anything, C++ will always perform much better than Java. Claiming the opposite because you assume your coders don't know what they're doing, it's just ridiculous.
They're absolutely more efficient cars (relative to petrol), and arguably still the more "eco-friendly" - but that's not a well-defined term.

They exhaust high amounts of nitrous oxides (high-temperature lean combustion - same thing that makes them efficient!), and particulates (hard to evaporate and burn the fuel in the few milliseconds where power is made), which are bad for anything living by a major road, but don't hang around in the atmosphere for more than a few weeks. I've seen limited evidence of regional effects, but certainly not the global, centuries-long effects of CO2.
I'm a huge fan of sports cars and cars that just plainly handle better on flat roads, but having a sports car that I truly enjoy driving versus my other car (a decent, recent SUV), the advantages with SUVs pretty quickly become apparent.

- Smoother ride over worse roads, especially under-maintained roads

- An extension of that point: more travel options. Dirt road? Sure, and the SUV probably won't get as dirty. Gravel? I can probably take it without worrying. Need to clear a curb? Doable.

- Better visibility, and that's even after factoring in everyone buying an SUV

- Marginal efficiency hit (like 10-15%), which most people ignore with electric SUVs anyway, but even with gas or diesel it's just not enough to stop people from buying anymore compared to when SUVs truly guzzled gas. As an example, I had a BMW from a number of years ago that my SUV today outpaces in average gas mileage despite unchanged driving habits and better engine output as well as increased weight for the SUV. People are essentially offsetting engine efficiency gains by buying more car.

- More car to absorb impact in the event of a crash.

I can see why people buy them even before egos start to get involved around just how big the cars can be.
I'm hopeful that electric cars are the saviour, and don't know of any reasons to think otherwise.

It's more that last time we had the eco-friendly saviour of Diesel Cars given to us, it was also rosy, until it wasn't. For example, British cities have way-too-high levels of NO2 pollution, and this is usually attributed to diesels. And not nice to live through, truth be told.
I think there was a time where folks inside Apple felt that the iPad was the future of computing, destined to overtake the laptop and eventually go beyond it.

These new Macs are tacit admission that the iPad isn’t the only future of computing and that a lot of folks do have a need for something like a laptop. Keyboards and touch pads (good ones) are simply better input devices for a lot of applications. Having a stiffer hinge that allows you to comfortably place the machine on your lap is a core feature. And being able to load apps from places other than the App Store isn’t optional for a lot of creative types who end up writing custom code for some part of their workflow.

There’s still a place for a more simplified walled garden approach (my mother loves her iPad as a primary computing device and it works great for her use cases), but I do think the iPad Pro will get phased out eventually in favor of a more streamlined iPad lineup.
Thanks so much for sharing your experience, Tim :) I'm really glad that you like the tone (for which I can obviously thank the members). I still have a lot to learn, but excited about what's next for sure!

VHDL is faster no?
I'd like to somewhat disagree. We've never seen such great urbanization. In almost a generation we've moved from rural to urban.
We moved from collecting firewood, by hand, and growing our own food. To being completely dependent on electricity, and the electrical grid.
I've been luckily enough to meet many elderly people. People who grow up on farms, and moved to cities. Now in their 90s. The 20th century was such a great leap into the future.

I've heard countless times, of a person growing up on a small farm with 8 siblings. Seeing electricity come to their village, the first phones. Them seeing planes for the first time. Being able to afford to make an international phone call. I live in Canada.

>It's not engineers responsibility to judge use case of the customer paying for the bridge.

Actually yes, yes it is! I am a civil engineer and there's a standard of ethics and personal responsibility among engineers that is very, very high. When we graduate, most engineers participate in a ring ceremony. They get a funny, angled ring on their right pinky. It was originally made from the metal from a bridge that fell down and killed people. It was meant to be a daily reminder, worn on the drafting hand, that every single drawing you signed carried the weight of public trust of their lives. Even pedestrian bridges get built with vehicle load standards, because you can't just assume that it will only be used by pedestrians.

Civil engineering is a licensure, and no matter what liability structure you use, when you stamp a drawing, you carry PERSONAL liability for anything that might happen if that design fails. Even small violations of ethics or operating outside your scope of knowledge are dealt with very aggressively by the licensing board.

In school, if we misplaced a decimal or got a calculation wrong or failed to adhere to a very specific standard, it was automatic failure because if you do that in real life, people die.

> Does a restaurant need a website, or a presence on Instagram/Facebook/{delivery app} is enough?

I don't trust the platforms you cited, so when I want to call a restaurant and they want my business, they must have a website.

I hear you, but can we solve electricity (in Africa) first?
Yeah, but this article is about Europe, and SUVs make up over 40% of new registrations. Mind you, the typical "European" SUVs, while bigger than other European cars, are midgets compared to what someone from the States would call an SUV.
tldr - Java is a better language to write good and safe code in than C++.
Why does column order matter? If you translate to the equivalent C/C++ row-major order, it should be laid out in memory the same way.
Generally caches, especially those using the full 8 transistors per cell instead of those trying to get by with 6, don't use all that much power. One obvious idea is to design a chip such that the hot logic layers are on top, right next to the heat sync, and the logic layers are underneath. 3D topology means that everything can effectively be closer together for lower latency and lower information transport energy but you can make the caches bigger at the same time.

For true 3D chips that are more cube-like people talk about putting liquid cooling channels into the structure but that would be a technology for quite a ways off.

I had no problems plugging in my USB microphone into the pro and having audio output. I was using airpods for the output though... maybe that is it? Or maybe certain USB microphones work and others do not.
An SUV typically handles better than (and is cooler looking than) a van, yet will still comfortably carry a family if that’s your life. Older folks with creaky joints like the height, so they don’t have to crouch into a sedan with its lower seats.
So not only you have to write the same efficient code you could have written in C++, but on top of that you have to fight with Java features like GC to make sure they don't occur. Sounds like a winning strategy to me.
Agree but let's see how its roll out :)

About 20 years ago I was coming across a website called something like filthyrichguy.com (I can't remember the exact name). This site described how rich the guy owning this site was and how you could become rich too. How? By just buying his book, of course. I was mesmerized by this site and it's audacious design for a solid hour or two. I searched around the web for more information and ended up in this circle jerk of sites promoting each other. None with any substance.

This feels similar. The blog post and the site is beautifully designed (really!) but I have a hard time figuring out what I'm buying. Is it access to a chat where everyone tries to sell you their "startups"?

I guess it's not for me, but congratz to your success!

From what perspective exactly is Rust a middle ground Java and C++?
It actually depends on if this data is maintained at an individual level and is personally identifiable. This data is almost certainly deidentified in Apple's case, which would make GDPR not applicable.
> mostly do some simple text-mangling

If you call communication with two different browsers (at least), validating source code, signing code and packing it up "simple text-mangling", I understand you're a bit frustrated. But I'm quite sure many see those features as a bit more than that, hence it is quite a popular tool to use in conjunction with browser extensions.

> Why do I have to install Node

Because web developers who do JavaScript for a living find it easier to write JavaScript to support their developer tools. Not a huge surprise here. I'm sure if you find the time to write the "simple text-mangling" in Rust, support it and maintain it, people would be more than happy to use it. But why rewrite something that works well enough for the intended users?

Speaking of cargo-cultism, you seem to have a bit of that stench on yourself as well, where suddenly every utility "should of course" be written in Rust, or otherwise be rewritten in Rust if they are not doing it yet.

Programmers will scratch their own itch with the languages that are familiar to them. Of course web extension dev tools will be written in languages and platforms that are the closest to the web ecosystem, which today is JavaScript.
