I live in one of those sorts of cities. Detroit is their own doing because of local tax code. There's a decent amount of "there was a falling down commercial building here so we bulldozed it and then just let it sit" type of lots kicking around in other cities but the lots have still increased in value (i.e. inflation has happened) enough that mostly nobody is underwater and anyone looking to get out can do so without losing money.
> If I remember correctly they previously bundled icloud services where each user got a slice of storage on the cloud, so I could see them extending that model to a time slice of compute as well, hosted on some form of K8s. I think the previous model was too limited for most use cases, but it’s not fundamentally broken.

The average Apple consumer customer can make plenty of use of cloud storage. What use does the average user have for cloud compute resources?

Unless Apple starts offloading some processing to the cloud, and gives them some free, I'm not sure how regular users would use this, and offering it for free assuming the majority of people won't use it is just asking for some popular app to come along that takes advantage of that and screws up the economics. Not to mention people probably won't be happy to have a limit and pay for overage use for stuff that is likely provided by free on other platforms (if Google Photos prettifies your photos for free and Apple does it through metered compute with some given free, that's bad optics).
Not only that, but our indie darlings have started to take shortcuts en masse. The promise of roguelike games used to be "no two games are alike". Today, multiple players criticize Noita for not having permanent unlocks. Steam threads like "When does the roguelike stuff kick in?(...)I died a couple of times and I always start from the beginning.". Or a metacritic comment rating it 5/10 saying it's deep and interesting but it lacks meta game unlocks all roguelike games have nowadays. That's what people expect. AAA games are known for usually only having 1 path through the game because "why waste time making content if player won't see it all". Indie developers are actually using the same logic. Why waste time tweaking the algorithm to make unique runs if you can HARDCODE runs to be unique by providing a new unlock every now and then...
Morality doesn't exist outside of "socially prescribed conclusions", it's actually a pure social thing, it has no other function, but to help individuals make socially acceptable choices.

Alternative lessons:

1. Save your progress to disk periodically -- for a genetic algorithm, that will be the seeds passed to the next generation. That way, you'll only lose one generation if you need to unplug your box. As a programmer who does any amount of research, this is a superpower. Godliness is achieved when you automatically commit this data, summary metrics, and the code that generates it into a git repo.

2. Invest in a UPS. If you need to do a project that will take longer than your UPS will last, you can just move the box & UPS onto another circuit.

But, yes, be careful with electricity. Lessons from my grandpa, who survived all of his live-circuit edits and died of lung cancer:

3. Wear rubber-soled boots.

4. Keep one hand behind your back.

5. Use rubber-handled tools and do not touch the metal bits.

6. If a ladder is necessary, it should be non-conductive.

7. Equip your child with a 2x4 and give them the instructions to pry you away from the source of electricity with that, and to not touch you under any circumstances.

That's correct. If Google treated every Twitter/FB/Reddit link as useless just because those sites attach 'nofollow' to every external link, it would have a much worse idea of what links are relevant and what's not.

Nofollow is still useful for site owners that are using it as intended, and not as a site-wide policy. It's just that most sites do not get a fraction of the traffic a big tweet or Reddit post would get.
That would quickly descend into a cacophony.

The best resource I've found on estimating is "When Will it be Done?" by Vacanti. The great thing about the system outlined in the book is that it fits into any software development workflow system without requiring change and it provides probabilities along with the estimates.

It's not perfect though. It does require some historical knowledge of the cycle times of tickets. However, you could probably argue that without cycle time knowledge, estimation would be entirely fruitless anyway.

Having read several software estimation books, I can't say enough about this. It really should be the bible of software estimation.

Wow. What happened to “Never Forget”? America is ok with this because we get cheap shoes?
Prop 13 gives huge tax benefits to using land less than productively. Both selling land, and building on it will massively increase taxes.

Property values are rising at 5%-10% per year, but bulidings themselves only depreciate without dumping more money into the building. So that 5%-10% is all land value gain. As a property owner, why increase taxes by using the land more productively with new buildings, when you can continue to profit just as much without that? Also, attempting to build is hugely risky, because the permitting process is fraught, long, and likely to fail.

If we didn't have Prop 13, every single property owner would have a lot more incentive to actually try to build.
Hey - Apple is not shipping earbuds or wall chargers with the IPhone! SV companies and their virtue signaling.
It's one thing to say that it's a chicken and egg problem for existing businesses that make money in the Apple ecosystem. It's another thing when you are still seeing new development efforts.

It's 2020, this shit has been happening for a while, and it's no secret. I haven't figured out why a self-respecting developer would subject themselves to that nonsense.
kids can absolutely reason morally, they just don’t have all the scaffolding to support doing so well or coming to reasonable conclusions. kids even reason about the nature of the terms themselves (especially around christmas: “why do i have to be good? what does being good mean?”).

but the same five year old who is picking the 10 dogs over the 1 human is also grabbing their toy from their little sister and bopping her on the head with it and making her cry, so i am not trying to defend some notion of a developed sense of toddler morality.
Here’s what I replied to:

> Residents strain the city budget via things like public schools. Businesses put money into the city budget via gross receipts taxes.

Prop 13 was meant to drastically cap property taxes. It was very successful in doing so. As a result, tax revenue from property taxes has also been capped dramatically, and cities adapted by relying more heavily on taxing businesses. Hence the current situation where residents cost more in services than they bring in in property taxes, incentivizing cities to attract businesses and wiggle out of their responsibility to build more housing units.

A good illustration of this dynamic is “RHNA”
process for allocating housing unit quotas to each city in California. it is a very conflictual process where city councils typically fight tooth and nail to get their quotas reduced. A recent example in Palo Alto: https://www.paloaltoonline.com/news/2020/11/18/palo-alto-ass...
In my opinion you're hurting clarity. Continuing to use 1024 is to me clearly being on the wrong side of history.
> Last car I bought cost about $3000. Cost of insurance? Over half that, annually.

How bad is your driving record, and are you getting anything beyond liability? I have paid about that much, for 2 cars, and I have a lot more than liability. Even now, for 2 cars I'm paying under $1300/year - and have more than liability coverage. When I paid the bare minimum, for 1 car, the most I paid is $600/year. Even adjusting for inflation, it would not amount to over $1000/year today. And I paid that only for 1-2 years while building enough of a driving record. Looking at my financial records, when I had just liability on an old car, I typically paid $350/year.

> More expensive if you do a monthly payment plan.

Not all plans are like this. For the last few years I've been on a plan that costs the same whether I do monthly or annual. Shop around.

> And then comes maintenance of a 30yo vehicle! Total cost of ownership was about $3k/y

First, if you paid $3000 for a 30 year old car, it's a bad deal. 2 years ago I bought a 15 year of Honda Accord for $3500, and it did not have a lot of miles. Second, if you're paying $3000/year for maintenance, you bought a bad car. Sell it and get a reliable car. As an example, I paid $350 this year for maintaining my car (including oil changes). I paid about $1100 last year. Looking at my prior old car, I've gone as low as $100/year. In fact, looking back at almost 10 years, that $1100 was the most I've ever paid for maintaining an old car.

> Even cheap cars ain't cheap, and that's one of many reasons that poverty is a spiral.

Good cheap cars are always cheaper than the alternatives. Always.

It's not the hardware that's restricted, it's the MacOS usage/license. You agree to that when you install it.

Apple can't practically enforce that against you, an individual using a mac in your home. But then again you're probably not reselling your mac's functionality directly for profit to others. They for sure can seek to enforce it with AWS or others who sell it commercially. It's the reselling of their software and functionality for profit that is covered by the terms of the agreement.
The point is that even a small amount of accidentally released methane will destroy your co2 balance
I don't know about relevant EU law here, but even if Apple's terms are not enforceable in the EU, when you sell to e.g. US customers you would be subject to US law anyway, and Apple could go after you in the US. It doesn't matter that the servers are located in the EU.
> How are they expecting that people will use these new instructions? Only through Apple-supplied closed source compilers and libraries?

This sounds right. Forcing people to use Apple supplied and supported libraries allows Apple to make major changes in hardware without breaking compatibility (there are always edge cases, though).
Why would you say something like this?

With everything else being equal Unit tests are as useful for games and game engines as they are for any other type of software. If you care about your software being correct (or let's say less incorrect) you need to test it. And preferably you write automated tests. Games (and especially game engines) aren't really by default an exception to this.

(Of course you can just say that this game is not worth the effort of getting better quality so we don't care if it's a bug fest and that's fine).

First, I've made no pretense about speaking for Haskell's interests, I am speaking strictly about my own wishes. While I think our interests are aligned, I'll let you be the judge. What would be good for me as a curious developer interested in the language, and who has had a years-long low-level FOMO about it, I would like to be able to wade in and do something with it, like I did with Clojure and Erlang, confident that I could, in the end, make it do stuff (since others had already made it do stuff, first).

I do really honestly believe that Haskell needs a "paragon project" like Matrix or Jepsen that has proven itself useful to the world without respect to its Haskellness, and then show that this solution was much easier in Haskell.

I keep getting down-voted on this thread, and I expect it to continue. Friends thought I was nuts to give up on Lost after season 1, or The Hobbit after movie 1, or the GoT books after book 3. After years of hearing much talk and seeing no walk, I'm giving up on Haskell. More than that, I'm going to call out anyone talking it up to give specifics because literally everyone I've every spoken to about it gives it a very high regard, but have never, ever written a line of it.
Apple must support base LLVM functionality because it is the core of their extend-embrace-extinguish strategy. This says nothing that they will extend that offer to their undocumented secret sauce, as you imply.
10 years ago was right when "TDD" became hugely hyped. Before that, test automation was patchy throughout the software world, not just in games.

I believe the same is true of "best practice" today: game studios aren't actually behind the curve, you just don't hear much about how things are progressing on this end because most of the conference talks aren't about broad concerns like testing, they're about the myriad specialities of the field.

And there absolutely is a legacy-code thing that hinders AAA in many cases. When the engine is old, that's good, because it's shipped something, but it's bad, because it's using older practices and Things Have Moved On.
In fairness, you did say “24 year old Linux” which would put it in the mid 90s camp rather than late 90s.

I wouldn’t agree that Slackware in 2000 was on a par with Windows 2000 though. “Good enough”, sure. But Linux had some annoying quirks and Windows 2000 was a surprisingly good desktop OS (“surprising“ because Microsoft usually fuck up every attempt at systems software). That said, I’d still run FreeBSD in the back end given the choice between Windows 2000 and something UNIX like.

Hum... I do think "Haskell has an unusually low amount of gotchas" isn't a subjective argument that applies to any language. Also, no, yours "Haskell works better than other languages as long as you happen to know how to make it so" can't apply to every language, by construction you can only put one language on it¹, unless you assume that Haskell is the only language the developer knows well, what would make for a really lame argument.

But "you won't be able to use it well if you don't learn how to use it" does indeed apply to all languages. Yet, it's more relevant for some, and Haskell is one of those more affected by it.

It is a fact that Haskell is not beginner friendly. Your first program on it will suck, whatever proficiency you have with other languages (there are some people that argue that it is easier if you know less beforehand). It takes some learning before you are able to get the better safety, high productivity and easy collaboration people talk so much about (and even then, you won't get those for every problem, the language has limitations too).

1 - The statement is false anyway. There's no such language one can single out there without more context.

That might be entirely unenforceable in the U.S. as well, but I doubt most companies are clamoring to go up against Apple's lawyers to prove it, and those that might (Amazon, Google, Microsoft) so they could include it in their offerings might have to worry about Apple throwing even more resources at the case to make it extremely unprofitable to do so, and also that Apple might specifically do stuff to make it harder afterwards for that company. That applies equally as well to companies in the EU.

I'm not sure if it's accurate, but I and many others see Apple as a fairly vindictive company, from stories about how Jobs operated to how they treat developers that speak out. My impression is that it's part of their DNA now.

I guess they "care about property rights" in the same sense that everyone right of die hard communists cares about property rights but that's kind of like saying it's a warm day out because it's 200-something degrees above absolute zero.

If they care so much about property rights then why is it so hard for people there to do build on their own property that increase the value of that property?

Saying SF cares about property rights is like when the person who creates drama says they don't like drama.

Disclosure: I work for AWS and am part of the team that built EC2 Mac instances

1) After every stop/terminate of Mac instances, EC2 runs a scrubbing workflow on the underlying Dedicated Host to wipe the Mac mini's non-volatile storage and reset the NVRAM variables, to enable same security posture as any other EC2 instance. This workflow also upgrades the T2 chip on Mac mini to the latest BridgeOS version if needed. It may take 30-60 mins for this scrubbing workflow to complete, and up to 2-4 hours if BridgeOS update is required - during which the host shows up in "pending" state. We're actively working on lowering this scrubbing duration and really appreciate your feedback here. Important to note - You are not billed for any duration(s) during which the Mac1 Dedicated Host is in "pending" state (or any state other than "Available").

2. Once you have increased the size of the EBS volume on your Mac1 instance, you can execute following commands within macOS guest to increase the size of your APFS container.

1. Copy and paste the first three lines

PDISK=$(diskutil list physical external | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f1)

APFSCONT=$(diskutil list physical external | grep "Apple_APFS" | tr -s " " | cut -d" " -f8)

sudo diskutil repairDisk $PDISK

2. Accept the prompt with "y", then paste this command

sudo diskutil apfs resizeContainer $APFSCONT 0

Since the EBS volume was resized after boot, an instance reboot is required before the additional disk size is available for your use.

I said we should be happy Apple decided to open their platform - because they didn't have to, at all. It's entirely their right to not open anything, not write any documentation, or not even allow 3rd party software at all. If you don't like it, don't buy their overpriced premium products - it's not for you. I wouldn't want my own company to be forced to do/not do stuff, so of course I don't wish that upon Apple. There are enough entirely open computing platforms that are VERY cheap to obtain and easy to use, perhaps that would be a better choice for you.
To go along with this specific "Recurring Review" feature, I recently purchased major new household appliances: washer, dryer, fridge, oven, dishwasher, and microwave.

Should I add them as a product so I can be updated for a recurring review now or wait a year to add them?
