Yeah, I feel the same. I'm about to buy a Thinkpad T14 AMD Pro 4750U and I know that the M1 is superior, but in the end I've never been interested in Apple gear, and I don't feel like changing that viewpoint now. I'm waving the white flag, but I'm not crossing sides.
The US obviously has a self interest in providing training to military members in the Western Hemisphere. That’s why we allow foreign students to come study at any American university. But it’s a conspiracy theory to say that it’s all just a plot to destabilize governments in Central and South America.

I used to have the same kind of migraines. So much sharp smells everywhere, smell people across the street, things like that. Sadly headache didn't allow to enjoy that superability, even for normally pleasant smells.
If your data isn't being sold, then no, they're not selling user data. That's changing the meaning of language to make it sound worse than it really is.

You might argue that this data is being leaked, but that isn't clear either. Ads work on an auction system, and there's no guarantee that a user clicking an ad meets a demographic. You'd need to make a case that user data can be accurately built from buying ads alone.

Even if you could prove that, that's _still_ different than the claim that Google is selling user data directly.

Unlike farming in Africa and shipping it around the world? Vertical farming allow to farm specifically where it is needed.

What about freezing it to allow to get it all year long?

> What agriculture really needs is an effective way to make and keep decent soil.

Then go for it, see you in next year YC. If that really what it need then you won't have trouble selling it.
You're ignoring the fact that vertical farms have layers. In this article, they are growing 14 layers, so to match the output of one acre of farmland requires 1/14 of an acre of building, if all else is the same. Also, vertical farms can produce 365 days a year, which conventional farms can not. Other factors such as precise control of climate, nutrients, and pests will also increase the output of vertical farms.

I think in the end, you are right - vertical farms will be more expensive. But its going to be nothing like 275x as expensive.
Especially with 8GB of RAM less!

This was one thing that stood out to me when I visited Ireland and the UK. I'm from continental Europe and I was way overdressed (jacket, ...) than majority of people I would see. I explained it away that it was a rare week where the sun was shining so people went out of their way to wear less clothing but it looked so strange to me.
$830 is a great deal at those specs.
No thank you. I grew up in a house with a dad who fully bought into the "wear a sweater" philosophy. He'd make us go around all winter wearing two sweaters, a hat, and shoes indoors, and I still froze. My nose ran constantly and my hands got so cold I couldn't use my computer.

Now I'm an adult and I've learned that the extra cost to heat my condo to 23 degrees all winter is basically the same as my Netflix subscription, I recognize that philosophy for the idiocy that it is. If it's too expensive to heat your house correctly, then you have a problem with your insulation and you need to fix it.

My parents finally insulated their attic and bought a heat pump this year, and for the first time in a decade I can visit them in the winter and be comfortable the whole time.
The entire Trump administration's been an act of war. They got classified intel, private phone calls with the president, numerous concessions, everything they could have possibly wanted in terms of foreign policy, including an abrupt and chaotic withdrawal from Syria where Russian troops literally took over American bases, and a significant number of GOP congressional representatives visiting Moscow on July 4th together, with no American press there to cover the event or tell us who they met with, what they discussed, or why they went.

There's also evidence that Russia infiltrated the Treasury in 2015, unrelated to the election interference afterwards.

It's been war for a long time, and we have not been winning.
Can your very ordinary car maintain that top speed at a maximum duty cycle without overheating or causing unnecessary wear to the engine or drivetrain? Have you ever actually used your car at its limits? It's not something that you would want to do for long periods of time. Now imagine your cars limit is 70mph.

But the instructions are not clear.

Take for example the `als` benchmark for java renaissance.

It has a lot of options, one of them used to not force GC.

Was it set?

What version of Java?

I'm running openjdk 11.

When I launched it it gave me this warning

20/12/14 18:55:20 WARN NativeCodeLoader: Unable to load native-hadoop library for your platform... using builtin-java classes where applicable

Would a native hadoop library make a difference?

And how much?

There are other warnings complaining about lacking some additional library and switching to default, but what really surprised me is that on this particular laptop that mounts an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz with 8 cores, a CPU at least 5 years old, I could beat the i9 benchmark.

The `als` benchmark for the i9 completed in 3581.838 ms, on my (very old) laptop the running time was 3533.964 ms.

That was my thought there are plenty of development environments where more cores are required.

The m1 is interesting but I don't think its going to scale as well as a lot of people desperately want to believe.
> clocking up to ~4.5ghz turbo

How high they can go really depends on the process. TSMC 7FF silicon didn't go that high early on, max clocks really were improving as the process matured. This was very noticeable with AMD Zen 2, early dies topped out at ~4.2 (for all cores on the die), later ones often easily take ~4.4.

> Isn’t Pornhub’s content always public

I don’t think so.

I’m not an expert on PH, but from what I understand from other sources they have a mix of public content, open-to-all-paid-customers content, and private content that is available only to subscribers to particular channels.

I don’t know if they have any content owner (well, submitter, given the level of piracy) controls on who can see content at the specific user level (whether by restricting allowed subscriptions to channels with an owner-approval process or by having content restricted by something other than subscription status.)
They bin the worse chips as a 7-core version of M1, which is not an option when configuring Mac Mini.

It astounds me that people continue to use Dropbox after that incident. That day they burned 100% of their organizational credibility as reasonable adults with me.

It's not that they made that error; it's that making that error was possible given their organization's procedures.
Terrible example. What if that was true? You think that we would just shut down the companies that make essential drugs rather than change the regulation?
A small blanket is great when working at home. Would get weird looks in the office, though.

I've been using my M1 MBP for a few days now, and the only way I have been able to get the fan to even power on was to run Cinebench.

This morning I was basically running the entire MS office suite, joined a video meeting, had a couple dozen tabs open in my browser, a couple of nodejs apps, and a few other things -- and the fan still didn't start.
There are a few other sister sites, shown here https://github.com/lobsters/lobsters/wiki
There is no incentive for AWS to add restrictions like Apple with XCode. Indeed, I think that this would just reduce the amount of the customers they can reach.

I don’t think that other computers manufacturers are going to follow Apple’s lead. Maybe Microsoft will do it if they decide to get serious with their Surface line.

The one company I see benefiting the most from this is Qualcomm. They have the customers and the money to invest in R&D.

My house has 250mm insulation in the walls and heat exchanger for fresh air, but it's still nothing compared to modern houses (mine is 20 years old).

But no I'm not ever going to start wearing shoes or thermal undergarments indoors so I can lower the indoor temp by 1-2 degrees.

Most of the heating energy loss in my home is probably hot water.
I agree with the point, but that's not what happened here. SolarWinds Orion isn't some VC-backed panacea sold by SV hucksters to cure all your infrastructure's ills, it's a monitoring stack like Zenoss or Zabbix or (...) and is correctly marketed as such.
This is a "technically correct" post.

However, the post is suggesting people in comfortable status quos change their behavior - the OP is explaining that yes, it's totally achievable to be comfortably warm in all activities indoors and out, but it costs money.
The base ISA is set by ARM, but every vendor has their own set of features turned on or off, and their own extensions, and potentially their own way of laying out memory mapped IO and identifying peripherals.
I don't disagree, but 50 years is a very unintuitive number to give because it makes it sound like you're going to die of natural causes before the cancer causes you harm, which is pretty harmless as cancers go.
There's only 2 things I miss since leaving the Pacific Northwest, the forests and the mountains. It's hard to beat mountain forest air.

Have you seen the NASA study on indoor plants and filtration? Highly recommend it. The degree to which it's effective on a home scale... eh... Still, it doesn't hurt to do. Again, I could be crazy, but having a few of these in a city environment does drastically change the smell of a house for the better.

There is more to a cloud than the chips. Having the cloud chip in your dev laptop wont mean you have the same memory/power/cooling/storage services. Code optimized on your laptop, despite having the same chip, wont necessarily run perfectly in the cloud.
It's beyond crazy that intra-EU flying ever became as cheap as it did. Truly an example of externalized costs.
I would love to use trains more in Europe, but their prices cannot compete with cheap flight providers at all, 30ish EUR flights pretty much from any country to any country in Europe are hard to beat
Lol someone is still having an async syntax debate? How passé.

Essentially programmers want the ability to write concurrent code, without specifying the actual constructs (like threading), and the ouija board of programming community have spoken that explicit syntax is ideal. Promises were cool for a hot second, but then everyone coalesced on async/await. I thought other approaches like Python's gevent were really clever way of handling semantics, but I guess the majority didn't agree, people like explicit. But I will say, this syntax in this Rust library does look odd to me, but I agree 100% that the library made the right choice making it explicitly async. I really wish Selenium in Python used asyncio.

You're literally bike shedding on someone's amazing effort.
Every platform that grows large/ is successful will eventually "hate it's users" as it needs to be profitable. Currently that means, at least for the solved version, invading privacy/showing ads/selling user information.

More features being added to a newer version of the standard doesn't prevent you from staying with the old version. Your trusty old C89 compiler will still continue to work.

Speaking from experience, GCC/Clang extensions are pretty useful when you can afford to use them and it would be nice to have some of that stuff standardized because a lot of code I see in the wild is already using them. The time for warning about C becoming a mess of incompatible extensions has already passed unfortunately, and the only group that can solve this is a standards committee.
For better or worse, gaming cultural references are very common and a way to relate to colleagues of the same age. Many would say this is bad and pushes women, older folks and people with very different backgrounds away and creates an exclusive nerdy geeky club. I'm not here to argue that. But it is a useful thing for making friends in practice.

People also often get to know each other through gaming or it is their first interaction with technical things, setting up networking and firewalls for LAN parties, installing and creating mods etc.
No I will burn out and probably quit within a year if we don't hire a larger team.
I've often wondered if the word "addiction" is formally defined enough to have discussions like this from some common ground.

Does anyone know? There seem to be many different definitions depending on where I google.

Reading this article, I find it hard not to focus solely on my own belief that all carbohydrates, and sucrose/fructose/glucose in particular are extremely addictive. This article even compares, using dopamine, smoking with "temptation for food." I'm fairly sure that anytime someone is "tempted for food", that there are carbohydrates involved, but obviously it's hard to know without that original formal definition.
They're talking about a difference in real world dev use. My Macbook Pro thermal throttles just running Chrome sometimes (which is always running while I develop). If I started a single threaded compile alongside that, it most definitely would run slower.
I have the opposite experience, at least with regard to your first two paragraphs. Most of the things that I have backed up on other people's computers over the past 3-4 decades are irretrievably lost. But most of the things that I have taken care to make backups of on personal equipment over the years, are still with me.

Cloud storage is still useful of course, but I prefer to view it as a cache rather than as a dependable backup.
Well, that is very similar to asking how it is that conventional spying is not an act of war. It isn't, because everyone is going to be doing it anyway, so if you make that an act of war we have war all the time, rather than nations not doing it.
Dateability isn't a static category; gender roles determine dateability. E.g. there's no particular reason "interested in furthering his career" needs to be a universal component of attraction.

As a real life counterexample, there are pretty much no gay incels. That's not because there aren't unattractive gay gays, and there are certainly winners and losers in that dating market and consequent bitterness. But the variety of male types that are considered potentially attractive is much broader.

Apple hardware resells extremely well and if you don't want to deal with the hassle of reselling privately you can can also trade it in for a decent return.

If you're not on a super tight budget it's not terrible to just pick up the new machine and swap it out for the next one that ships if you want to.

Just use the gap in performance among smartphones. M1 utilises the same high performance cores A14 has. And A14 is ahead of competing Arm by roughly 2 years. Here's your answer, hardware-wise.

But in the world of software things are far more complicated.
I live that way right now in a 1950s building in NYC. The heaters only have two settings: off and thermonuclear. And the controls are centralized, ie there's no thermostat in my home. So, yeah, we control the temp by opening the windows sometimes. All that being said, living in an apartment building is automatically far more efficient than a house. We don't need to insulate three of our walls because they directly abut other heated residences and not open air. We have one big boiler for 120 or so residents.
Would they need to? If they're controlling what their populace can and cannot see that's at least 51% of their goal, isn't it?
I live in a 150 years old farm in the middle of a forest that have no heating, it's my third winter here and the temperature goes down to 5C inside for a few months (oceanic climate, it's rarely below 0C outside), especially on cloudy days when the sun can't warm up the stones of the walls.

The first winter I didn't have proper clothing and it was really hard. But now I have all the right gear and it feels very comfortable and natural. It's interesting. Also when Spring arrive I really get to enjoy it, the connection to the nature around is strong.

The only issue is finding the right gloves for typing on the computer, I haven't found any good ones yet.

Oh and in the morning I have to remember to quickly warm up my macbook pro otherwise the cold make it shut down. If it wasn't the work laptop I would use something else, the metal case is not pleasant when it's really cold.
Can you tell me more about your setup? Like which ec2 instance size, remote desktop software, and any other tips? I’ve considered doing the same.

Yeah I read that, but I don't think that single statistic necessarily tells us a whole lot, the extreme disparity also makes me think there might be something unexpected going on underneath the tabulation of those numbers. Intuitively, I'd expect user upload porn sites to have a lot more illegal content since its much easier for it to blend in there compared to most other places on the internet, the problem is greatly magnified at scale since distinguishing between legal pornographic imagery and illegal pornographic imagery is not trivial problem.
Most of the article uses single core benchmarks. For single core, the 5nm M1 beats previous generation 7nm x86 handily.

For the current generation (which is almost impossible to buy) it's a push.

For multi-core workloads (mostly niche use cases) high core count processors perform better.

I assume when the M1x comes out, it will similarly dominate the multi-core workloads, if it does have the rumored 32 cores.
> From what I understand, there is no way to virtualize an x86-64 operating system on the M1.

I wonder if QEMU is up to the challenge. I know it's capable of emulating fairly recent Intel x86-64 chips. But I'm not sure what QEMU requires of the host hardware/OS.

I believe many folks don't understand this and therefore wonder why random YT accounts can post clearly copyrighted material. Content owners can fairly easily capture the monetization of these videos even if its not under their account.

How do we know yet if it's long-lasting?
I think it's smart to be concerned and smart to make your own decisions about what you're comfortable with.

For what it's worth: Mac OS doesn't phone home on every app open. The result is cached on your computer for a few days[1]; this behavior was lightly confirmed by an independent researcher[2].

I don't think the caching really addresses the core concern. Apple has promised to provide an opt-out sometime in the next year[3], which is a superior fix. I personally will be keeping an eye on that committment.
