This is not specific to bluetooth or drivers, but I don't fully buy the thesis/deflection that Apple just has a much smaller set of hardware to support. I run a hackintosh system myself and it's more stable than Windows. I'm starting to think Apple just has stronger general QC. Windows is just as glitchy and crashy on Surface devices as anywhere else.

The counter point does apply to drivers, but it's really not just that.
I find hCaptcha way more annoying to solve than reCAPTCHA. The puzzles take way longer and I often have to do multiple of them.

That's surprising. I used IntelliJ today after a pause and found it unbearably slow. For instance, scrolling a ~6 page source file lags so much it's extremely irritating.

It's also fantastically bloated. There's so much stuff I have to disable to make it barely usable. And most of the supposedly helpful lightbulbs suggest changes that make absolutely no sense.

I can absolutely believe that IntelliJ has its fans because it has a ton of features, but for me it's just unusable.
along those lines, instead of being preinstalled, choosing app stores could be part of the setup process. so if you only wanted the apple app store, you’d just set it up that way. adding another app store would necessarily present more friction than that.
Another datapoint:

Three years ago, I built an offline/online paper wallet generator[0] for what was one of the top cryptocurrencies by market cap (Stellar Lumens - XLM). I included a donation address in the footer of the page.

I've received 9 donations in those three years[1], amounting to about 12 XLM (currently $4.87). While not much, I get a kick out of the idea that 9 people liked it enough to donate.

Note, my costs are negligible and I've never received a single feature request or had to do any maintenance. The code is hosted at GitHub Pages (free) with Cloudflare (free) in front of it. The only cost to me is the domain name.

> As with anything, it's because someone paid $69 million for an NFT, and everyone else is scratching their heads wondering if these people have gone insane, or if it's something they should pay attention to.

The group that bought it has LOTS of money invested in crypto (and Flow, an NFT focused blockchain) so they benefited by increasing demand for the ecosystem as a whole. Whales can move markets.
Bingo; This "appeal to the court of public opinion" strikes me as a last resort due to a lack of negotiation leverage.

Absolutely. What I'm saying is that I personally don't need to know about this. I suspect that OOM's behavior is of similar effect to most developers.

It's an entirely different commit at that point. If work has already started in another branch based on the original commit (for whatever reason), it can cause merge problems down the road. Again, you are likely going to suggest that you can just rebase this other branch on top of the modified commit, but that's still sweeping possible merge commits under the rug, and again just because that rebase is usually automatic including that the tree references should be the same doesn't mean it is always automatic or doesn't have dangerous repercussions (including training junior devs to rebase often and giving them plenty of ammo for avoidable footguns).
Find a safe place to get high quality code reviews. I recommend high quality software projects like Rails or Postgres. The biggest aid to my creating better software is code reviews.

Also, put this[0] in your calendar and read through it once a month. Read through books on your stack, and choose a stack known for high quality.

I can't tell you the number of times I've worked with "senior" devs that weren't. The number one thing they had in common was hostility towards code reviews. Pay attention to the little details and start absorbing and following advice in code style guides. Take this[1] one, for example. Also, there are some rules of thumb worth following. I do my very best to avoid inheritance (outside of mocks / fakes for testing) and I move hard coded constants into config files with ENV overrides available. Avoid over-commenting and try to follow TDD if you can, since it makes your interfaces more from the point of view of the caller rather than the implementer.

It's hard to talk about these types of things over text, so if you want me to review some of your work feel free to reach out to me and I'll give you some more advice over a video call.

It is better privacy. There's one thing for one entity to know what everyone is doing on the web, all the websites that you visit and what you do on them, and another thing for an entity to know that you visited their own website, without knowing what other websites you visit and what you do on them.

LE: The best solution is still self-hosting, as hosted plausible is still a 3rd party entity that centralizes data (even though they probably don't use or share this data).

Interesting. I thought the whole point of an NFT was to have a unique copy of a digital item that only existed for you.

I hate it when this happens. Because 9 out of 10 times the VC backed company eventually goes belly up but the bootstrapped ones that would have made it work will be collateral damage on the way to acquiring that little bit of knowledge.

I had this happen with a company called Spotlife that competed with us in a niche (live video over the internet for consumers, something we now consider to be common and easy, but which was neither back in the day). Fortunately we had some very loyal customers and held on until they died but it was pretty ugly.
Ok let's cut through the crap. The nft craze is BTC oldtimers who are finding new and faster ways to launder them, no?

I was really comparing live over video to pre-recorded over video. I agree it's easier in many ways in person and that's my preference. (That said, my videos on YouTube are watched by far more people than in-person unless I'm giving a keynote.)

That said, it's gotten easier over the past year. My office is pretty much set up as a studio now with lighting, mikes, camera and so forth. And I've learned things like better eye discipline. I've also learned that, sure, I should do a retake if I really flub something (or, umm, forgot to hit the record button). But for anything longer than a very short clip, it doesn't need to be perfect.

But, then, this is one of the things I do for a living so it's been worth the time and money to get things right.
Agreed. Lexing and parsing might not be the most critical aspects of a compiler these days, but they’re more generally useful.
So sad that you didn't buy some huh?

Zig is too uninteresting to eclipse anything. It's the same problem as D's -betterC option. It's not better-enough to motivate switching away from C in places where C is still used, and it's far too stripped down & basic to attract the majority that's gone to C++, Rust, Go, ObjC, or Swift (or even "full" D). It doesn't offer much to justify switching costs. If C++11 had never happened then maybe Zig would attract the C++ crowd, but today?

Zig also seems far too opinionated & even self-contradictory. Like no hidden control flow means that you can't have operator overloading because apparently the + operator is invisible to people or something. And if it could be overridden it could call a function (gasp!) or throw an exception (double gasp!), followed immediately by a big section about how the + operator internally is hidden control flow and can throw an exception (overflow checking).

It then also constantly claims itself as being small & simple, but it has compile-time reflection & evaluation for templated functions - which is widely considered the main complexity of C++. I think Zig is better overall having this feature, I love constexpr & friends in C++, but compile-time code generation & evaluation over generic types is also not "simple" nor "small".
> It is not preferable, because em-size is decoupled from the size of other UI elements.

Only if you make it that way.

You're arguing that I should size my layout in pixels because... I size it in pixels? If your em-size is decoupled from the size of your other UI elements, that's a choice you made, it's not the OS forcing you to do that. We're talking about the decision not to decouple em-size from the size of other UI elements. There are tons of popular, modern desktop UI toolkits that give you the ability to do that.

> Anything in this chain could change em-size: The OS, the OS setting, the UI toolkit, the browser, the browser setting - independently of the rest of the UI elements

No, any of those things could change the base em size of the font. Which will then scale linearly and predictably as long as you're using `em` and `rem` units everywhere, including for your layout.

> Here's how you actually achieve that: Use "px" everywhere.

You're commenting this underneath an article that explicitly complains that the pixel approach doesn't work today because OSes define fonts in points, because users can override your choices for font sizes, and because these units are not a uniform size across different operating systems.

Meanwhile, if you build a QT app and use `em` units, it just works.

And of course it works, because regardless of whether or not you think that pixels would be great for fonts, users still get to override your font choices on native devices. The only way to solve that problem is to tie width to font size. You're complaining that anything can change the base `em` value of a piece of text, and I'm sorry to tell you this but on most modern UI Toolkits users can also change the font and size of your text content even if you set it in pixels.

Unless you're advocating that Gnome/iOS/Android/Mac should get rid of their current text scaling accessibility options, which... good luck. Pixels won't save you from that stuff, container widths based on current font size will, because for very good reasons you increasingly don't get the option on modern computers to force font to be a specific size.

> is that you want to decouple the scaling of fonts/labels from the overall scaling of the UI

I worry we're talking past each other. Don't decouple anything. Use `em` units to scale how large a container, button, margin, image should be. Use them everywhere, not just on your fonts.
The issue is not "structs" v. "classes" per se, it's things like inheritance, vtables and RTTI (also other C++ features like templates and exceptions), that need special ABI support in C++ for which there is no Rust-side equivalent. (meanwhile Rust traits are quite different from anything in C++, although they're used similarly)
The arguments that both sides use to support their positions don’t recognize such a limitation, so why should the middle ground you propose be where we draw the line? People opposed to masks claim an infringement in their rights. People in favor of masks all the time claim it’s a small price to pay for the greater good.

As an aside, it’s interesting to view the masks in light of people’s opinions on Muslim countries’ head covering requirements for women. People against them say it’s an infringement on women’s rights. People for them say it’s a small price to pay for the greater good.
TLA+ Action Properties
The benefit of the GUI is that it documents what has been changed: in the GUI there is a list of port forwards.

With the CLI you either need to document it yourself, or you need to know to query if there are any port forwards. That can be a problem if there is more than one person responsible for the network, or if someone else needs to inherit your setup.

Documentation of configuration sometimes isn’t an issue on your own home system because you generally have a high level memory of what changes you made and their purpose. Conversely I still struggle sometimes with Ubuntu because I customise my configuration using command line tools, and I find keeping track of those changes or the implications of those changes is difficult.

The article says that they are made in China, the company is based in Quebec.
I'd say there is a large difference between the portions of the production lines sources from China and those sources from the US. The largest of which is that, for those portions sourced in the US there is no alternative supplier, which is likely how the US is able to enforce such export controls.

I think a better way to look at it is: the US is allowing TSMC to use export controlled equipment outside the US, in exchange for TSMC abiding by their restrictions.

While I’ve heard David Lee Roth’s argument here. I’m not sure I buy it. For one, the rider itself somewhat had a Streisand effect of its own. So it wasn’t much of a canary once it was public knowledge.

And two. Most large touring acts have all sorts of heavy equipment. Zepp, Skynyrd had enourmous amounts of stuff. Even to date, RHCP has a boat load of gear they lug around because like many they don’t use a venues PA, they use their own gear because it’s quintessential to their tone. Hell the Grateful Dead had a wall of sound.

All that is to say....sure that could be a reason. May even have been the reasoning to start out. But I’m not sure I buy it personally. That band was also known for their.....persona. Especially with David Lee Roth.

I prefer to think of it as the political style you find in European countries with the parliamentary system. You have to form coalitions. The "pure" FSF position is like an ideological pole that some people are closer to than others. When this system functions properly, there is more room for nuance and shades of grey.

Of course the danger is that we end up like Israel. They keep re-electing the same guy who is incapable of forming anything, but no one knows who the successor would be or even how such a person would operate in the current climate.
I think the main premise of this article is the fact that crypto's carbon emission is insane, especially Bitcoin, which I agree (I don't hold Bitcoin for this exact reason). But there are many other crypto that uses Proof of Stake, way way greener than Proof of Work, such as Cardano. Even Ethereum is transitioning to Proof of Stake.

This article should be re-titled "The Political Case for a Blanket Proof of Work Ban".

I think the author has got it all wrong. The blockchain (and the NFT contract) don't make digital art scarce, nor do they confirm 'ownership'. It's been pointed out many times that anyone can create an NFT on a blockchain, and just because you own an NFT with a URL of http://example.com/example.jpg doesn't stop anyone else from creating another NFT with the same URL.

An NFT is 'genuine' solely because the artist says it is. Anyone can make another NFT of Beeple's $69m picture, and it will be identifiable on the blockchain, but it won't be the 'original' because Beeple says it isn't. In other words, none of this is decentralised, it's all based upon real world authority.

Despite all the crypto verbiage, blockchains don't add or enable anything with NFTs. The artist, or a company, could easily just maintain a database showing who 'owns' which artwork NFT, and could update it when works are re-sold. The fact that this runs right now on the blockchain is just because it provides an existing database (and a polluting, expensive and cumbersome one at that!)
Hostile and clearly framed article from the first sentence. Could not read it further.
I'd imagine lots of reasons. Apple has the hardware guys to design whatever chip they need. They also have a mountain of reserve capital (Something like $1 trillion I believe?). Further, Apple's closed ecosystem means that if you want them to sell them your hardware you have to conform to their standards.

With Samsung and android, it's a different story. There are many android vendors and the people producing the Bluetooth chips are selling to many of them (broadcom). Samsung has the ability to make their own chips, but to get everything working flawlessly they not only have to make their chips awesome but also improve the android driver stack to work with their new awesome chips. That stack has to also be compatible with the other bluetooth manufactures on the market making it a harder change to make.

In other words, with apple and a vendor, there are pretty much just the 2 parties involved which control everything. With Samsung and vendor it's not just them but also the likes of google and other bluetooth vendors that can get in the way of really fixing things.
