It will disrupt. Intel and AMD chips aren’t on their first initial CPU release. Apple is with the M1.

Apple has been designing their own ARM-based SoC for more than 10 years now. They've been outperforming the ARM processors in Android phones and tablets the entire time.

They were first to ship 64-bit ARM processors in phones and tablets.

This ain't their first processor rodeo.
Surface Pros are way too expensive compared to Chrome books to buy en masse. I thought they would've figured it out.

You—: You need a web app that looks beautiful. You want prospective customers to interact with your product and you want them to feel that visceral feeling that you feel when you interact with an Apple product or something of similar quality. That feeling will compel them to purchase your thing and it is easily worth hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to you over the next two or three years. (Perhaps you've noticed how terrible the recent YouTube redesign is. If I were in charge of that operation I would fire everyone involved. No mercy.)

What's the strategy (both logistically and financially) for dealing with the 8-10 year maturity cycle of the trees? Also, I'd imagine it provides some moat for preventing new competition into the market.

Having been in the supplement industry before software, even I ended up confused about what the right approach was. It was clearly awash with psuedoscience, but there are also countless points of anectodal evidence in the community confusing things further.

I no longer take supplements, but creatine and whey protein are the two mainstays in the community. Pure and plain, and with lots of old and new studies backing them up.
The appropriate solution for this is to put your shell code in a shell script and RUN that.
IAC was at one time Google's largest single advertising customer. Detail of the complaint from the wsj article linked above:

> Many users of IAC extensions expressed agitation, the audit found. “Tricked into installing it and can’t delete it,” said one user in a review on the Google Chrome store, which the audit called representative. “DO NOT INSTALL” warned another.

“IAC’s business model appears to rely almost exclusively on unintentional installs,” members of the Chrome safety team wrote in the audit.

Of special concern in the audit were ads that IAC ran against search terms such as “how to vote,” “vote by mail” and “voter fraud.” Users who clicked on the ads didn’t get voting-related information, the audit found. Instead, their browser home pages were reset to MyWay, and the separate, IAC-owned Ask.com toolbar was installed on those users’ browsers, the audit found. The audit found that IAC continued to run such ads even after Google told the company to stop.
The iPhone was revolutionary because of the responsive capacitive touchscreen with onscreen keyboard and shortly after the App Store which popularized more the iPhone. The M1 chip makes the Apple software run smoother and the battery efficiency is impressive, but not sure if it's something consumers will remember as an inflection point.

What an insular point of view.

While devs can, artists and game designers don't have that bargaining power.
Well said! And it really is all-day battery life, too! I myself got the MBP 13" and I have put it through its paces ever since I got it. The battery life, temperature, and performance are amazing. Can't wait to see what they do with the M1 performance variant they'll be putting into the 16".
> The actual thrust of the argument seems so broad (i.e. reliance on intuition), this could be used to label almost anybody outside pol-sci academic circles a "profoundly unserious public intellectual" for commenting on politics.

You're pretty much spot on with this line. Most people are terrible public intellectuals, and of the people who identify as such, many are profoundly unserious and completely useless. This article is asserting that Paul Graham does not belong in the vanishingly small set of people one should consider as a serious public intellectual.
Um, I'll try:

So it's really the same as a "computer-computer", but with a specific UI framework and peripherals like a compass, GPS, camera (as you mentioned), etc.

Where it starts to suck is the interface for interacting with all those things: So you want to access your device's location? Well do you want to use the cellular/WiFi network, GPS, or both to tell you where you are? Ok, you figured that out, now how fast do you want updates? Oh, that was more of a suggestion - what's the fastest we can send you updates? And so on.

And it's like that for almost EVERY. SINGLE. THING. Imagine someone sat down to develop a mobile API, then got bored halfway through and decided to just leave the rest as an exercise to the user. And then some other people decided to come along later and add "improvements" (i.e: what Apple is doing) to the mishmash of existing "stuff", and you basically get Android development.

Yes, iOS is better, at least in my opinion. It's hard to pin down, but you get the sense that at least they designed it for someone who actually wants to write an app.
Excess Mortality is a tool used to attribute deaths to _the pandemic_. It is helpful for answering questions like "How well is <country> handling the Pandemic?" and for comparing performance between countries and comparisons over time.

Glad to hear that.

I'm learning django right now and for my first project (after the tutorial project) I will recreate stumblingon. When I do I'll add a logging/metrics system of some kind. That way, I won't make premature decisions about turning it off in future.

I'll also commit to replacing the website with a list of the index for a month or so before (if) I turn it off for good.

Now that I'm thinking about remaking it, is there anything you think is missing from the website?
This probably doesn't, but in principle other related charges could. In the past few days the new intermediate R3 went live, so if you have systems which pin Let's Encrypt Authority X3 (a bad idea but possible) those break when you next renew.

The tricky part of pinning is coming up with a good policy for what to pin. As so often the technology is easy, the policy is hard.

What are you even talking about? RAM is actually one of the few disappointing areas of these machines, capacity wise (though the RAM itself is fast and unified, so there's that).

Furthermore, one of the most stunning things about these devices is their long running battery life, which you'd hardly get much experience with in a quick test drive.

Bad take is bad.
When setting up your own server you need to buy a domain, deal with running the infrastructure, deal with and require others to setup new identifies.

You don't need to compete with github's uptime either. If you want that, you would setup/rent a seed. Without it you can rely on some kind of eventual replication.

Also GitHub is free - for you, for now. MS can change it at any point. It's also not accessible from a number of countries.
People doing the majority of the work would not be able to be paid to work for 2 - 3 years non stop on a project if nobody above them had sufficient funds in the first place. What do you expect?

Nice efforts towards bringing in frequently used tools together.
Played a bit with it. Suggest you to make it more useful by:
1. Support single quotes also in json
2. Better error reporting; Just saying invalid json is not enough.
3. Auto correct functionality
4. Few more tools like guid generator, etc
For the price point, I don't know of any other laptop that can compete with my M1 MBP 13 on battery & performance & temps and sleekness of form factor. M1 got me all of these things in one package, and it is just the FIRST attempt by Apple at making their own laptop chips.

When the next one comes out, probably when they release their refreshed 16" machine, it'll continue to convert people who are looking for great performance/battery/temps without having to compromise between then. The M1 MBP 13 is my first Apple daily driver for these reasons.
Please provide detailed proof, including historical analysis and the geopolitical context that demonstrates that (a) he was personally responsible for thousands of deaths, (b) his actions did not save many more lives and, (c) the lack of such action would not have resulted in massive loss of life through other means immediately or years later.

Of course, I don't expect you to answer any of this. This simple challenge is to demonstrate just how ignorant you are, how ignorant I am and how ignorant we all are about such things.

You played precisely into what I described in my prior comment: The reduction of a person or a group from a complex multidimensional entity with context and an entire universe of intertwined realities to a single point in space fully defined by "responsible for the death of thousands".

I am NOT defending Rumsfeld, precisely because I am as ignorant as you are. The only people who possibly had the requisite context sat in a single conference room as these decisions were being made. None of us has any idea. We are all ignorant.

All Mexicans entering the US are criminals and are responsible for the enslavement of tens of thousands of women into sex trade in the US. This is the kind of statement you are making. It is preposterous when it comes to Mexicans and it is equally preposterous when it comes to most high-level politics.

Do not reduce a person or a group of people to a single point devoid of context. The conclusions you will reach as as that reduction.

Given its a mobile device with battery limitations, those seem to be reasonable inputs to want for an API?
You raise an excellent point. My kids (and others like them) are being raised in a 2-parent household. We encourage the kids to study, and help them where needed.

It's a form of privilege, but I don't feel guilty about it. We take part in programs that help other kids outside the family (including after-school homework help for ELS kids). IMHO, we all should become 'privilege factories', helping first our own kids and then other kids. It advances quality of life for everyone involved.
It's not 1% of them though. It's 0%. None of them are getting off the couch to kill anyone because their video game release is delayed.

It's an expression of frustration, and we all know that. Unfortunately in today's world, feeling threatened is socially valuable so they're simply playing on that. It says more to me about the disingenuity and/or weakness of the "victim" than anything else.

We need to laugh at people more.
Put a piece of paper trash on the floor and see if they put it in the waste basket upon entering the room. Tests values.
My M1 is my first Apple daily driver and I'm going to be selling it so I can upgrade to the 16" whenever they have an M1 variant for that. Great post!
You may be interested in represent.us, they were the group behind the Alaska initiative!
> The M1 is a quantitative, not qualitative improvement. That's why it won't be as memorable.

You're missing the forest for the trees. The quantitative improvements allow for advances in the qualitative experience. GP pointed out feeling impressed by coding all day and spending just 18% battery life. That's a qualitative experience. M1 (and chips like it that we'll see come up) will allow for a qualitative transformation like that. I remember when, if I had to get a powerful computer in the $1000 range, I'd either have to give up some power to get portability and battery life, or get a bulky powerful laptop with ~2-3 hours of battery life. With the M1 macs, you can get both, and that will set expectations that the rest of the market will have to follow if they want to survive. It's not as "revolutionary" as a new form factor, but it's a step towards a broader change in portable computing.
In the interest of clarity:

- Boeing was trying to avoid a $1 million penalty per plane to Southwest if pilot re-training was needed (Southwest buys 737's for commonality to reduce Mx and training costs)

- This perverse incentive resulted in several groups inside Boeing not understanding each other on how to do that, complicated by the MCAS system consisting of both hardware and software (outsourced) intersecting with compliance.

Very few employees in any organization can be on top of several areas, and be able to communicate across those areas.

- A bad design (only one AoA sensor used out of two) that probably had on-going revisions, and incorrect paperwork filed with the FAA

- a culture of fear, where reporting a problem meant a high risk of being fired (the test pilots knew there was a problem and sent SMS messages about it, their manager knew it. In the end, the manager was fired after the SMS messages were made public because PR.) The ODM FAA contractors are also under pressure not to affect schedules at Boeing or they also have been fired in the past.

The similarities I read between the Grenfell Tower and 737 MAX disasters were that employees knew there was a safety problem (fire vs. loss of control), and the certification paperwork was misleading (fire rating vs. MCAS pitch-down rate and frequency.)

I wouldn't describe the 737 MAX issue as directly a profit-motivated defect. Yes, larger engines required MCAS, and delays reduce profits, but a correct MCAS design and certification paperwork would have cost the same initially as what was delivered - that didn't work.
I have to disagree here. The article is criticizing his work, his history of participation in a field, and his current commentary on politics. Yes, it discusses him as a subject, but not as a piece of gossip and strung-together ad hominem's. It is definitely critical of him, but mostly in his capacity as a commentor and his history of being incorrect. It's not second-rate tabloid stuff because of what dimension of him it's mostly considering.

Yeah, I push mine hard and it barely uses battery. I never hear the fan (I'm on the M1 MBP 13) and it remains cool to the touch. I was skeptical about it until I noticed that it stayed this way for...basically 13 hours when pushing it really hard and nearly the 20 hours they advertise when using it for browsing/email/videos.

That convinced me for sure.
Outrageous. Another example of 'Shutdown for thee, but not for me'.

The list of politicians who have been caught vacationing, going to grooming appointments, etc. is appalling. (These are politicians who have made strong statements condemning everyone else to stay home.)

But the pols are small potatoes in comparison to the business edicts like this article is about. People's entire livelihoods are at stake.
> In my experience, that sort of throwaway account (but there are many sorts—let's not overgeneralize) is usually reporting something true, though perhaps biased.

If you look at the academic research on rumors, most rumors are apparently fairly accurate. That's why they spread so quickly. E.g.: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/009102609001900...
It'd be interesting to convert CPU/SSD/network/etc. activity into audio using some algorithm. It's pretty easy to do poorly, just by looking at stuff like utilization percentage, but ideally you'd base it on what operations the device is actually performing.

If you own IAC stock, I’d recommend selling as soon as market opens tomorrow. Watch. Barry Diller’s hidden secret to wealth is IAC’s Adware division (called “Mindspark”. Basically Ask Toolbars to trick unsophisticated masses to install browser extensions). IAC and Google, until now, has had a backroom relationship and contracts to turn a blind eye towards Adware and Deceptive Advertising. That’s the summary.
Yep, I was in the market for a new laptop and the M1 MBP is my first Apple daily driver now.
vapid: offering nothing that is stimulating or challenging.

I'm failing to see this generate meaty discussion here. I am currently seeing mostly lots of flagged to death or grayed out comments, likely because it's basically gossip and mud slinging and not really anything more than "Some guy has a bee in his bonnet about Paul Graham for some reason."

The downside of this approach is they'll judge you as not very smart.
It's also worth remembering that while it may have shifted the smartphone market (and certainly Apple tablets), competitors still exist, improving over time, remaining relevant.

Apple has captured 66% [1] of the profit in the cell phone industry. Other than Samsung in the US and other manufacturers in Asia, Apple has made the other companies a lot less relevant. When the iPhone shipped in 2007, Windows Phone, Blackberry, Nokia, Palm, Motorola and others were the giants in the industry; I'd argue none of what's left of these companies is relevant today.

The same thing will happen with laptops; we already caught a glimpse of this in Japan, where Apple became the #1 selling desktop when the M1 Mac mini started shipping [2].

As the price/performance and performance/watt becomes more obvious, Apple will make inroads with new customers and markets.

Huh, are you sure? I don’t think you can (currently) define a lambda in a cell without also calling it in that cell (which means the cell now evaluates to the function’s return value, not a function). The LAMBDA docs:

No, you can't really make that claim. There are thousands of clones of more popular games out there, it's not like the game production is massively original to begin with.
