You’re not wrong, but the biggest thing is wider support. I’ve only seen SDI available on expensive camera gear (but I don’t look that hard), but HDMI is ubiquitous. It’s sad DisplayPort didn’t end up winning instead, but I guess TV manufacturers are members, so they’d put it in the TVs. DisplayPort still has a stupid “membership fee” but at least it’s royalty free.

Buying cheap LiIon replacement batteries that might burn down your house is a level of living fast & dangerous that I just wasn't made for. Removing an already bloating MBP cell using sharp tools is a terrifying experience. I blame Apple for encouraging this by over-pricing genuine repairs.
Even now you prove her point.

Your proposals sound rather dull. :) We in 2020 still appreciate prompts for thought and discussion. The popular media by which we transmit them has changed, though.
Assuming the cost of the batteries were the exact same, that means that Apple is charging an extra $60-$100 for the battery install. If it took all of 30 minutes, that’s a labor rate on par (or better) with most automotive/mechanic/trade shops in my area.

I would love to be able to pay Apple just for the battery and do it myself, but I don’t know many people that want to learn how (even though it’s very simple).

This is where I get torn about how angry I should be...

I feel like Right to Repair laws should (exist in the US in the first place...) require that wear items be made available on their own. Not as an expensive assembly, not requiring authorized repairs when out of warranty, and not being DRMed. I think that certain classes of items should always be considered wear items- batteries, for instance.

However, at a certain point regulation (in the US at least) tends to either be SO broad or specific as to become regulatory capture for the incumbents or basically toothless.

On the other hand here, Apple is giving users a viable, quality option at what could be deemed a reasonable price.

To be clear, I’m not patting them on the back- I’m sure lawsuits forced their hand, they’re still making money, and they’re protecting their brand.

I guess the point I’m trying to get across is that it sucks that my options are battery of unknown origin which can have literal catastrophic implications or paying a non-inconsequential amount of money to repair a piece of equipment that is likely important to one’s daily life.

TorGuard's "Streaming IP" certainly does. It allows me to use streaming services and sites that are normally blocked for me at my home in Mexico.

Is it really open-source though? As I looked at the patents, most were filed in the late '90s (don't ask me how the grant were delayed by ~5 years, I also don't know this). The main question is that the techniques discussed in the patents were prior art before 1999? Because chanting "open source" is not really helpful here unless there are code that exists then that matches the patents.

The momentum is lost, and thus is the war. H265 is already a new de-facto standard by the virtue of it getting first to the hardware, while AV1 crowd was apparently arguing over whose logo design would AV1 bear, and exact legalese wording.

Republican congressman rips Texas GOP for suggesting secession and says 'my guy Abraham Lincoln and the Union soldiers already told you no'

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger on Friday criticized the Texas GOP for floating the idea of secession after the Supreme Court rejected a bid to overturn the results of the presidential election.

In a statement, the Texas GOP chairman suggested that "law-abiding states should bond together and form a Union of states that will abide by the constitution."

Republican Rep. Adam Kinzinger of Illinois said the statement should be immediately retracted and the people involved fired. "My guy Abraham Lincoln and the Union soldiers already told you no," he said.
That is a very valid argument. I think the big problem (for me at least) is that these patents are (essentially) on math, just “done on a computer”. Sure, it’s math that would be impractical to do by hand, but it’s still just math.

That’s the rub for me.
In previous companies I've seen AWS and Azure do the same for >$10k bills from small startups. 1x$10,000 invoice is no where near as much as a lifetime of hosting a unicorn startup. Most cloud providers will even give you $50k to $100k in credits for 1 year if you are a startup from a good incubator/investor. It gives you incentives to not to care about how much you're spending. By the 1 year mark you're probably making some money, raising another series, and attempting to dramatically scale up your business so now you don't have the time to clean up the tech debt you've created to lower costs. They are absolutely making a bunch of money this way.

This is what I've started thinking of as the ‘pretty dumb for a human’ take on AI.

If your requirement for believing something is on the path to AGI is for it to practically already be AGI, it's no longer predictively meaningful. This sort of argument suffices to dismiss, for example, the possibility that today's humans evolved from apes, or even that today's humans could have come from pre-language, pre-civilization humans.

fn next() -> Option<T>;
}

It depends on the implementation, I do not like how in witcher 3 the quests,weapons,NPCs,creatures have a level so a cool sword is garbage after 1 hours and a some random NPC will drop a rusty ugly sword with a better number. I prefer the games where you don't have a level printed over the enemy head, all low level bandits are the same level but you can find in other areas a different NPC camp with different gear that can defeat you in one heat.

And funny enough, I didn't lose the view of the parking lot, as it was projected upside down on the opposite wall.

Not sure what urban fiber costs, but in rural the overall cost of Fiber-to-the-home comes out to at least $30-40k a mile for aerial construction, which is legitimately hard to make work if you have less than 10 homes per mile without some subsidy.

The cost is ~30% cheaper if you are a telephone company though and can overlash the fiber on your existing telephone lines.
Many 90’s era attempts that failed do work vastly better on modern hardware. There are many tweaks that showed up once people could fine tune using vast amounts of processing power, but I would put ~80% of the advancements from HW and 20% from algorithms.

> This I say after a couple of recent days in which the GUD gdb interface was a great help in solving a few of the problems I was working on. Does VI has something similar built in? Or for any of the common workflows like these which work out of the box, without needing plugins or extra configuration

Not quite, but the help page does mention a plugin called termdebug[1] that can be used with vim's new terminal feature.

> 1. Remote file editing on other computers.

The netrw plugin which comes with the default vim installation allows for this

> 2. Rectangular/columnar text edits and manipulations.

You can select text in column mode and delete, replace, or insert text before or after the column (which can be wider than a single column).

3. Essentially infinite kill ring : This I find is very useful, one becomes accoustomed to building blocks of text by assembling things from the kill rings. Also plays nice with point 4, easy macro record/replay

vim has registers that correspond to every ascii letter (I think emacs has this as well). From what I recall, when you delete or yank text, it goes through registers 1 through 9 which each subsequent operation shifting the previous operation to the higher numbered register. After register 9, the delete or yank is lost.

But, if you use the capital letter registers, you can append a subsequent deletion or yank to what's already in the register, which I believe would effectively act as an infinite kill ring. I'm not sure if emacs can do the same with its registers.

> Easy macro record/replay of even complicated edit sequences

Vim has this as well, and you can store one macro in each of the ascii letter and number registers as well.

> 5.Inbuild calculator, with both rpn and algebraic modes.

There may be a plugin for that, but you could certainly pipe a line of text through dc or bc and get the result in vim.

> 6. The Dired mode provides a very convenient file manager.

You can get this through the netrw plugin as well.

Depends on the language you're working in. I work in Ruby and as good as RubyMine's refactoring is, it can never be 100% because Ruby's a dynamic language. There are a lot of RubyMine "power users" at my office and, other than less than perfect refactoring, I haven't seen anything it can do that vim can't do. In fact, when it comes to navigating files, rails.vim seems superior. The only thing I'm jealous of is the built-in terminal that has tabs within the main screen.
