Anyone else thinking maybe nVidia shouldn't have been allowed to buy ARM?
These two concepts are part of a wider network. The measures of those concepts alone closely correlate. It is difficult to think about one without thinking about the other.

I am not blaming the system as a whole. It just is. I was more taking issue with (reacting against) and questioning the motives and sources of people's reaction to the system and its big players. I was trying to show that these motives and sources are similar to those of both the big players which they are reacting to (UK), and also those which they leave out (continental EU, Greece).

Some motives may be moral, but it should not be forgotten that these motives correlate with the interests of a wider group. For many people alone, being immoral correlates directly with negative personal interest.

This is not to forget that people's reactions interact with the wider system bidirectionally.
I don't know about that. My HD25's are 17 years old and it's plastic on plastic on them and they are as good as new.

I mostly use bottom end Airpods though because they are more convenient and sound just as good!
I agree Twitter has had an outsized impact, and amplifies all these issues.

But the root cause is an identity/race-centered ideology that has taken root in our "elite" universities.

You are correct and it's equally as awful.
They don't need to "support" Windows on ARM Macs. They just need to open up the licensing model so that users can buy Windows for ARM from Microsoft and install it via Bootcamp. Apple has already stated that they "have the core technologies for them to do that, to run their ARM version of Windows, which in turn of course supports x86 user mode applications".
Second datapoint to fill in the inflation a bit:

16 years ago I paid £270/month to live in a sharehouse in Bristol (not generally as expensive a place to live in as Cambridge) in a boiler cupboard that had been converted to a bedroom.

I highly recommend watching the anime Dennou Coil [0] to see what the world could be like if AR glasses were as common as smartphones today:

• Everybody is connected to the same "AR space" and sees the same AR objects.

• Different people may have different view/interact access to different objects.

• Some form of tactile feedback is assumed. In Apple's case we will assume this to be provided via the Apple Watch or a hypothetical AR gloves accessory.

• Many things that are currently physical could be replaced with virtual versions: screens, keyboards, signage, fashion, pets.

Many developers have already noticed the gradual introduction of APIs and hardware like LIDAR that are so obviously meant to support a future glasses product, but I wonder if anyone's connected the dots between features like the spatial audio recently introduced to AirPods.

Apple's AR strategy is very likely going to be divided across their different products: iPhone (processing), Glasses (display), Watch (motion control and tactile feedback), and of course AirPods. Many of their users already own most of those devices. No other company is so perfectly positioned to finally deliver ubiquitous AR.

I've lived in the inner city parts of Stockholm most of the time (Östermalm/Norrmalm, Södermalm, Kungsholmen).

I would definitely not wear 500-600 USD headphones in any of those areas.

But I think crime in Stockholm is a bit off topic. However I don't think the inherent risk of being robbed - wherever you are in the world - is off topic for the discussion.

People rob kids of Airpods all the time, because it's a status item. These new Airpods will be a status item too. This will increase the risk of robbery - be it in Europe or the US or elsewhere.

I'm sure there are larger cities in the world where the likelihood of getting robbed is low (Tokyo?), but that'd be the exception rather than the norm.

Marketforces... sometimes it rather seems funny to me, that people lived in "expensive" "downtown" areas, which are predestined for higher returns via businesses such as AirBnB. There is a development behind that (the development of the city), but you can't blame anyone involved. Permanent residents want to live rather cheaper, outside of the city, greener, calmer, etc. Temporary residents require easier access and closer proximity to their (daily/vacation/business) needs, since they are not familiar with the area. There is disruption of an old industry (hotels) and you can be against that, try to stop it and maybe also successfully stop it. But I am not sure about how much sense this makes. Times change 1. the city and 2. the businesses.
It is not the fear of being robbed, but more a general feeling of personal safety, e.g. hearing cars, bicycles or any people around you, is why I don't like to wear any kind of headphones while walking around. I feel deprived of an important sense. This of course would be worse with any kind of noise-cancellation. Only when sitting town in a train I feel reasonably comfortable, but also a bit nerveous about missing an important announcement.
>But DDG is bad.
not necessarily. Depending what you searching. I do find looking for tech documentation, google performs better. Then use something like startpage.com (google proxy) for that. Something I find that google is censoring them, and I can find it on DDG more.

In the end it is all about having good search engine options.

What I don't like about DDG is that they use bing. Hope they start using their own search now that they are getting big.

I dont' trust MS as much as I don't trust google.
I think the point here is to prevent first-impression bias from emerging before the referee had time to at least skim the paper. So instead of thinking "this author is known for boring papers; I'm outta this" or "this author's papers have always been rare and deep; I'll really give this one a chance", you first give the paper a fresh look.
When it comes tech. There are just some people who just don't get and there for looks very silly and hypocritical.
Both PS5 and Xbox use AMD Zen 2 CPU. I guess you meant that PS5 and Xbox don't use Intel CPUs.

I highly doubt Intel wants to be in the low margin business of supplying console CPUs. Intel's fortune is entirely dependent on whether it can get back advanced process node crown from TSMC.

In principle, the ingredient you need for that use case is "existential types". I suspect GATs let you define existential types -- after all, the selling point is that the trait defines some type, and you can't rely on what type any particular implementor chooses. (But I can't quite put my finger on why non-G associated types shouldn't be enough.)

In Java(!), I have a class `Database<$Database>` whose constructor is private and whose sole static factory returns `Database<?>`. Thus, the caller must assume that every instance they create is parameterized over a distinct unknown type -- even if, in the implementation, $Database = Object. The dollar-sign prefix is a hint to the reader that this type parameter is meant to be a type correlated with a unique value.

You can get an `Index<$Database>` from any database, and it's parametrized over the owning database's unique existential type. Indexes over two different databases can't be confused.

The only issue (so far) is that you have to be careful not to "forget" the correlation between the type parameters on an index and its owning database. If the type parameter decays back into a wildcard, the correlation is lost.

This is bad in more than one good way I think: http://dhmo.org/

From the page:

The causative link between Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) and Cancer is currently not established, although a significant amount of evidence seems to suggest that DHMO at least plays a role in the formation of cancer...

...

What is known about these cancers is that Dihydrogen Monoxide is found in detectable and biologically significant levels in virtually all tumors and other cancerous and pre-cancerous growths.
I can relate to this 100%.

I'm working though a Rust course right now, and while my code works fine (once it compiles), I always see the reference implementations of the code, and it's like 2 lines of filter/map/collect, and voila. Meanwhile, my 8 line frankenfunction looks like the Charlie Brown Christmas tree.
It's a shame that most of these records are not available on Spotify, and - I think - it's the same on most of the others streaming services.

You know, I really wondered how bad was the music behind the bad covers.

But this made me realize - even more - how limited and not inclusive are these streaming service catalogs, in spite of their claims.
O(N) to get a key-value (N being the total number of keys) kind of defeats the purpose of a database.

Looking at their past actions, Apple will do everything, legally and technically, to prevent Microsoft or anyone else from "commoditizing" not only their hardware but also software. Yes you can build a hackintosh yourself, but if you try to sell it, Apple will intervene. Also, technically there is no problem with running macOS on VMware, but you need a patch like Unlocker specifically for that purpose. Their money comes from a high level of control, they won't give it away without a fight.
It really depends on the age as well, at least for me. I also always had side projects, and I could totally pull 2 full shifts per day (job and side gigs) in my 20s, be healthy, well rested and functional... something that is completely unconceivable now in my late 30s :)

Also, HA HA. I've checked and I was right. As far as I can see the cheapest one is $329, BUT with 32GB of storage, which is absolutely ridiculous in 2020. 128GB costs $449, and even that's barely enough storage. The keyboard is $159 (!). So the minimum usable laptop replacement from them costs $610, and I'm probably missing some accesories you need and which probably increase the price even further.

Let alone the fact that for the rest of the world Apple products are 10-20-30% more expensive. So this combo probably costs €700 ($800+) in Europe.

Bait and switch.
Thanks for a great advice. It took me far too long to come up with the same move.

This is exactly, except I used AWS Support issue and expressed my desire to terminate AWS Customer agrement, what I did prior to posting here and got a response that request was denied, hence my questioning of leagality of their actions. In my layman view right of contract termination is an universal right , assuming there is no outstanding obligations, but couldn't find exact references to it.

I then replied clarifying that my request is not to close a problematic account, but to terminate AWS Customer Agreement I entered when signed up with initial account. What's going to happen with those accounts is out of scope of my request it is up to them what to do. I also asked for contact detail of they legal and compliance team so that I can hand my notice of termination. I didn't read AWS Customer agreement all the way to the bottom to find addresses there, my bad.

> I don’t know if terminating the agreement in this way would affect Amazon’s willingness to do business with you in the future.

It looks to me that parties enter AWS Customer Agreement when AWS account is regisered and "I agree" buttom is clicked. Therefore there can be multiple "active" customer agreements each with own lifecycle. Again, I am hardly qualified to know for sure :)

Thanks again for a great advice.

What a bunch of bad takes.

He complains it's too heavy, but then puts down other, lighter products made out of plastic.

He also puts down using it wired, even though it seems like a product to use at your desk (since it's heavy and doesn't have water resistance). Keep in mind, an audio cable is not included in the box, so maybe Apple is sending a signal to use it wirelessly.

Also, he doesn't think this device needs an off switch. This means you get to carry around the case just to put your device in standby. The case is an elaborate off button since it doesn't offer much protection.
No, it's patent-law, not copyright law. Interestingly while the US has Fair Use (which is an open-ended legal defence), I don't think any countries in the EU (or "Western Europe" if Brexit happens) have anything beyond the closed and enumerated "Fair Dealing" defence).

I don't know how this fits in but if Apple were to:

1. Create it's own 5G/4G cellular network (buy one)

2. Put it on all it's devices

3. Bundle cellular network with cheapest iPhone with cheapest Apple Silicon MacBook

A majority of U.S. college freshmen would bite and become entrenched in the Apple ecosystem, most for life would in turn could enable Apple to further lock everything down.

I feel like the only thing that could stop this strategy would be regulators waking up (doubtful) or Microsoft saying 'no you can't run the endlessly pervasive Office Suite on Apple devices anymore' (also doubtful).

Of course Apple might be unwilling to 'tarnish its brand' by offering all this bundled at a reasonable price and lose a little in the short term (likely).
Hi Nico!

It's not that those adults aren't worthy of first-class citizenship or digital freedom, it's that they wouldn't know what to do with it, or how to steward/safeguard it properly.

Based on my username, it's easy to figure out where I stand with regards to independent digital ownership of content. But even I have to admit that the process of being self-hosted for anything at all brings esoteric advantages at best, is very hard work to set up and keep running for a non-technical person, and is prone to takeover by a motivated adversary unless one is constantly vigilant.

It's far better to have a person in their lives who would manage their digital independence for them, assuming they are trustworthy and would do a good job at it. We already know the phenomenon of the "resident geek of the family", or their paid equivalent. Why not have a "resident digital independence keeper of the family/small community"? Surely that's already better than a mega-keeper like Facebook, who is unaccountable, not worthy of trust, and not with the user's interests in mind?
Interesting, thanks for the stats. I guess the trick is getting the GP referral in the first place. I am pretty sure as a normal-seeming adult, if I asked for an ASD assessment, my GP would be extremely reluctant. I would have to be very insistent. I'm fairly certain I have Asperger's or some flavor of ASD, and I have found it a real struggle trying to get an actual diagnosis. I even paid for private treatment, but my therapist told me flat out that most psychologists prefer to not label people anymore (unless it substantially impacts their life so they can get disability benefits).
Used to be. Those days are past us.
Even in Java, I'm rather sick of passing around types with `<X, Y, ?, ?>` with two honest-to-goodness generic types and two actually-chosen-by-the-implementation generic types. There's no good way in Java to hide those visible wildcards without making a wrapper class that only exposes the meaningful ones.

Associated types make the distinction far clearer. They better capture the qualitative distinction that "you can choose these, I get to choose those".

Also, associated types are inherently "functionally dependent" in the sense of Haskell's multi-parameter type classes. If you have a trait `F<X, Y>` with an associated type Z, you know that given X and Y, Z is fixed. Without associated types, `F<X, Y, Z>` could have multiple legal implementations for the same X, Y and different Z.

This is extremely meaningful in languages like Haskell and Rust which implicitly thread around the trait methods. Typeclasses in Haskell can be imagined as describing concrete dictionaries of functions over the given types. Languages like Java (manually) and Scala (automatically, using "implicit") reify these typeclasses as dictionaries that are threaded through functions as extra parameters. You can often define multiple implementations of a given trait for the same types, and you get to choose which implementation to pass along.

Rust and Haskell assert that traits have a single implementation for a given batch of types, and they automatically look up the correct implementation given the types you've specified. These "functional dependencies" mean that, in my example of `F<X, Y>` with associated type Z, it's sufficient to state what X and Y are to find the right implementation of F -- Z doesn't contribute to the lookup. If you don't have associated types, you could have multiple implementations that simply vary on Z, so you have to tell the compiler explicitly which one to use (by stating what Z is).

LearnYouAHaskell bought the book last year but because of lack of time didn't worked through it.
I should dust the book off in januari and give a read.
Many Haskell and functional Scala books will give you a good understanding of type-driven development, but I'd recommend "Functional Scala" by Chisano/Bjarnson (and do the exercises).

Alternately, "Learn You a Haskell" will provide a decent base.

Either of these will give you the base needed to explore higher-level concepts that can easily be used in Haskell, Scala, Purescript, OCaml, a few statically-typed functional languages, and to some extent, Rust.

I am definitely sucker for pun-ny titles, but I usually skip the "Explained" "Demystified", "Right way", "Hard way", "Missing Manual". Those are usually on very beginner level or don't provide anything more useful than documentation and often don't even improve on the form as they are longer articles not technical document.
Because they don't. Your link even has an answer that highlights one way which they differ in expressivity - namely, that associated types don't appear in the instance head, so they can produce orphan instances where generics would not.

Consider the example of Rust's Iterator trait[0]. It has an associated type for the iteration item. It could have a generic type argument instead, but the two implementations would be different:

1. The associated type is a direct consequence of the instance head. That means that, for the type that Iterator is being implemented on, the associated type is known entirely from that type. If you have an iterable value, you know it only produces one kind of iterator item.
2. As a result, the associated-type version can only be implemented at most once. The generic version would be implementable any number of times, for any number of choices of type argument - and as a result, you would have to specify that you are iterating over an iterator with a particular choice of iterator item type, every time you iterate.
