I know what you're trying to say. But I'm saying that history doesn't support your viewpoint. I can't think of any political power (be it Caesar, the Knights, Samurai, or whatever) across cultures where the politicians being part of the military had any such benefit you describe.

We know what a warlord looks like when they're in power. The people who come to power by the sword are not peaceful folk. Military politicians (such as Samurai or Knights) seem to be more violent than democracies. They are more than willing to risk their lives, or send off their children to die to grab political power.

EDIT: In the Samurai / Warring States era of Japan, it was common to marry off your daughters to rival warlords in the hopes of keeping the peace. But when war broke out, the Samurai were ruthless: they were willing to risk their daughters lives to advanced politically (ex: grab some land and/or glory).

Back then, it was normal to fight a war for simple glory. Children be damned, or even your own life. That's the way of a warlord based political system.
MicroSQL – Simple ever SQL DB (under 200 lines)
Fair enough, that's the common interpretation.
It still uses Node.js as a glue between microservices if the project frontend is web (the eats website, for examples).

It also used Node for a very core part of the app, and it was Node 0.10 to boot, but my understanding is that that's on the way to deprecation.

Microservices themselves are all in go or java these days.

So is this getting the exact same CPU that was previously in the iPad Pro (that Apple updated today)?

If so, amazing supply chain efficiency to keep this same cpu around but now in a cheaper product.
Can I just say, while I believe Discord will die anyway if it IPOs (as with anything that believes in infinite scaling), I would have loved to see Microsoft enact the special fucked up kind of integration that only they can manage
Apparently Apple shipped an "update" that partially broke the Youtube app "Pause" feature [1], Apple did not want to revert the patch and decided to wait on Google fixing the Youtube app [1], finally 4 months later apple fixed the issue [1], one month later Google announces that it discontinues the App, 3 months later the app is discontinued.

If you downgrade your Apple TV today, the youtube app still works (I did that a couple of times when it stopped working, but the Apple TV would update itself overnight... until I gave up..).

I bought an Apple TV mainly because it was advertised as being able to play youtube. Apple introduced an update that broke the Youtube App.

I can't really blame Google here. Apple breaks their app, Apple didn't want to fix it, Google got all the burn from users, fixing the App is probably out of their hands if this was a bug introduced by Apple, ... probably not worth it for them.

Either way, I bought this device because it supported Youtube, and now it doesn't because Apple introduced an update that broke youtube.

AFAICT this is all Apple's fault and I wish we would have an EU law that would prevent hardware manufacturers from shipping updates that break their products so that customers are forced to buy new ones.

I think we've all seen a charming local dive bars with cheap, strong drinks get bought out, and turned into a soulless clean well-lit place that overcharges for gimmicky cocktails.

I don't personally think it's immoral at all: things change, and I'll always respect the entrepreneurial spirit. But I do view the situation with some sadness, and I can understand why a long-time local might view it as wrong.
this is why we cannot have good things... somebody thinks about making money with the content creators and the users and screws everything.
You mean like India? Check out those COVID numbers and let me know what you find ;)

Indeed it is a virus, and they are used for Malaria. If using the combination of Hydroxychloroquine, Zinc and Azythromicin early in disease progression actually works then... who cares? I mean really. It could work on placebo for all I care. People are dying, you think they will refuse a proven treatment that happens to be a anti-malarial versus an anti-viral?

Regarding people being deficient in Vitamin D, that's uh... literally everyone. I think the only people with normal levels are native tribes that still live outdoors. Check out any study of vitamin D in chronically ill people and see how many have normal levels. These are the same people most susceptible to dying from COVID. Isn't being Vitamin D deficient the most indicative metric of COVID morbidity?
No, you don't get to live in "your" house rent free. About 3% of the house value per year goes to property taxes, repairs, utility bills, grass lawn maintenance, hoa dues, insurance and so on. A paid off house is like a brokerage account with insane fees and liability.

This is a shame in many ways—podcasts really seemed like they were incredibly healthy without the influence of multi-billion dollar corporations.

With this and what Spotify is doing I foresee a future where podcasts are like streaming video: siloed across dozens of incredibly mediocre applications. Hopefully this doesn't lead to the locking down of the Apple Podcast Directory, which I believe is still the de facto standard source for most podcasts.
I've been considering this.

One small question: how is the front facing camera? One of my necessary uses for a tablet would be video conferencing because the camera on my ThinkPad is not so good.
Yeah. I actually listen to ads on shows like TWiT, since it’s a live read and they vet their advertisers. Occasionally it ends up being part of the discussion a little which adds to it being natural-feeling.

If it’s pre-recorded (even if read by the hosts), I tend to skip it more often, since I’ve usually heard it before. I don’t think I’m interested in listening to any show with DAI at all.

True live reading of ads is hard, it doesn’t scale, and you don’t get micro-precise audience tracking, but it makes me pay more attention. That’s what should really matter.

In my local Barnes & Noble yesterday I noticed a book whose title (I believe) was called The History of Whiteness. I was a bit surprised to see that it was written by a black woman. Doesn't that fall under the rubric of cultural appropriation?
The software experience is the one thing I wish Apple would improve upon faster. It's got quite good as of late, but there's still a lot of things that could be way better all around.

I can certainly agree that Excel on iPad is an awful experience, though. I gave up using my iPad for Excel stuff at work in short order.
Not quite the same, but you could check out https://vimsnake.com/

If you mean ads from the content creator, well sure they deserve to get money but Apple making money out of the content creator, well that's sad.
People end up in positions where they have to break their own moral compass all the time, even if they are generally honest people. I'm not condoning it but I do have some understanding of unfortunate situations.

I want a single subscription. Not death by $1.99/month subscriptions that I can't keep track of.

I have no clue how much money I spend between Patreon, Youtube premium, Netflix, iCloud storage, Spotify, Dropbox, Notion, etc. God knows what else is on my CC bill.

Subscription fatigue is kicking in for me. Apple One subscription was trying to unify this into a single payment per month and now we have this.
I stand by my analysis.
I think iPads and iPhone designs are getting better whereas the iMac (and even other macs) are getting worse. The bright colored and thick bezels on this including a chin makes this look super ugly from the front. And since iPads and iPhones have thin bezels and iPad even has the m1 chip, there’s no reason for the chin on the iMac. They could have at least made the bezels black for less distraction. I genuinely prefer the old design. This looks like an iPhone 5 stretched out.
Difference is also that majority of iOS devices people are carrying will be part of the tracking network.

Not sure how widely Tile is used. One issue on iOS with them is that you get these regular prompts ”Tile has been using your location - do you want to disable it”.
While traveling around to a few big and medium cities I get the sense that the market is already rationally killing off mom and pop shops in favor of Chain Burger, and I also get the sense that whether you’re in a small or big town, metaphorical Habit Burger is actually favored and more trusted to deliver a good burger.

It’s even more true with little apps on the App Store. Most tiny little apps actually hurt the Apple experience because they are unworthy and don’t have the reputation but still want your data.

Small shops don’t economically make sense except for very local concerns.

I guess it's something you don't understand if you don't want/have kids.
“Revising the game” is exactly what the GP commentator was warning about. Push the inequality far enough and the social contract will likely get changed. So you asked what can you do? I’m not saying don’t move to the area you want, but make conscious choices that help reduce the inequalities that may drive those inequalities. Maybe don’t be riled up about high density housing bringing down your property values. Maybe support local businesses even though it costs more. Maybe vote for higher taxes that provide better schools even if you don’t have kids. Love how much father your income goes in that new town? Maybe donate just a portion of it to help provide a safety net for “locals” who may otherwise be negatively impacted by the “out-of-towners”.

And maybe you do all those types of things already. But the tone of your comment comes across as, “Welp, what choice do I have but to myopically try to get the most out of this hustle??”
I hear this argument a lot, but I don't buy it. Let's flip it around, 99% of people will want to do something with their computer that will turn out to be a giant pain in the ass with an ipad compared to a mac or windows laptop.

If you had a friend/relative that didn't have much money, and was asking you for advice about which "computer" to get and they can only have one. Would you recommend an ipad? There is no chance I would recommend an ipad in this context.

Jobs liked to describe computers as bicycles for the mind. The ipad is a unicycle for the mind.
Yah. I'm baffled by this. Absolutely baffled. You set up a site, any site, make an RSS feed, and we all had aggregators that polled and downloaded new episodes. This system was working fantastically. Why is this even happening?!

They make the odd resolution because they've committed to a certain amount of dpi ('super retina' resolution) and are marketing it as such.

While it would be fun to be able to run a complete k8s cluster locally that's quite a niche usecase. There's not much software on the consumer side where having 32gb+ really makes a huge amount of difference. At least not the software Apple is showing in their presentations. Lots of people think they want a huge amount of memory, but macOS seems to be able to handle memory pressure (with transparant compression and swapping) quite well, even on machines with little memory.

Is this a thing where you live, putting kids into jail for something as worthless as a laptop?

Maybe not an ORM but a query builder: Knex has been of so much help to me, it works pretty well and it's really easy to use. Used sequelize in the past but it can get incredibly complicated, really positive change.
Odd so someone tugs accidently on the power cable and the machine just shuts off? Magsafe seems like a great idea on a laptop. Not sure I see how it makes sense here.
Good point. In the set of games (10 in total, release date up to 1991) I was porting I found only one that used this nasty technique. And it was just rewriting only single byte of code (something like rewriting nop instruction into return). So very simple case so far. Of course using cicoparser doesn't mean that you get working code without any manual work. You will always need to fix some issues by hand.
Virtual memory does not solve anything in this case. Writing to EGA video ram means that you want to display some pixels. But the write operation goes through some extra logic which decides what to do with the byte being written (extra rotation, masking...) and by reading the same addrees you are not guaranteed to get the same value back. EGA control registers handle this process and you simply need to emulate this behaviour somehow.
The message says they they temporarily (not permanently) removed the ability to submit new shows. Is it still unavailable? I assumed they disabled it so they could enable the new podcast management features. Also, I thought apple's podcast app allows you to add an rss feed manually?
It is also worth noting that the WebRTC calls are E2E encrypted and look fantastic as they are often peer-to-peer so you can get an amazing connection if you have the bandwidth available.
Oh lawd its starting to come back up! Pingdom monitor is flapping and we're starting to get some successful, albeit slow, logins!
Purchasing this type of carbon removal potentially has a massive second order effects if it helps encourage big unit cost reductions like what happened for solar. The Collinsons have talked a lot about creating the conditions for progress so I wonder how intentional this is.
I use Podbean coupled with Pocket Casts. They do everything I need. These apps are really useful.

Also, there are only so many things that you expect from a Podcast app-

- Does not have ads. (Some banner ads are okay)
- Offers download in external storage
- Has bookmarking capabilities
- Offers all the titles I listen to
- Saves data associated with an email address

There. Simple. Don't want anything more.
Great way to promote outsourcing to another jurisdiction.
Breonna Taylor was an EMT that was murdered by police while asleep in her own bed during a no-knock raid.

There is no data to suggest that she was a criminal or drug abuser.

Tamir Rice was a 13 year old kid playing with a toy gun (which have orange tips to denote that they are toys). He was murdered by police, too.

Duncan Lemp was executed by police shooting into his home at 4:30AM whilst he was totally asleep.

There are many other examples, this is not an occasional, anecdotal thing. (Additionally, under the law in the US, the penalty for being suspected of crime or drug dealing is not "summary execution by police". It involves a trial.)

Your claim is false.

From an audiophile's point of view: The thing on the side is a headphone jack (digital out through the jack has been long gone AFAIK), not a line level output, you're not really supposed to connect your speakers (directly or through an amplifier) to that. It usually works, sort of, but it's far from ideal.

I'm not sure whether that could be Apple's line of reasoning, but I wouldn't be surprised.
Is them releasing a keyboard (detached and presumably replaceable) with a Touch ID sensor basically an admission that the iPhone Touch ID did NOT have to be permanently paired to the phone to keep it secure?

Because in this case you can replace the keyboard and keep it secure, which contains the Touch ID sensor.
This seems like a response to Spotify locking up the JRE podcast on their platform. This takes the world further in the direction of podcast centralization. The plague of all other content creation.

They will, of course, pretend they're doing it for the creators but it's bullshit. The creators do want money, and subscriptions are a good way for them to make money, but creators do not want their podcasts to be centrally controlled or exclusive to any platform.

This is another example of where Apple's centralized/walled garden approach puts them at odds with what is best for the world. It's understandable, but unfortunate, and we can ultimately do better than this.
This is a neat idea, but I feel like an iPad Pro is overkill for accessing a virtual desktop. You could set up something similar with an old laptop for a fraction of the price.
> Problem: the letters "G, P, L" are toxic to a huge number of companies.

Too. Effing. Bad. These companies can either figure out how to work with FSF-authored licenses or they can go make their own alternatives. I have no sympathy for them.

Or for devs that make excuses for this attitude. They deserve to be force-pushed onto software like when Apple decided to ship zsh instead of bash because they didn't want GPLv3 in their OS. Or that whole Rails brouhaha last month.

Companies should not be trusted with permissively licensed software. You don't get to play shell games with public access.
You can just vendor those dependencies, that's what I did, but I only had one that didn't update. And that one was trivial to fix.
I do this on my MacBookPro. I keep my headphones plugged in. I have the system sound go via the Mac speakers. And I have zoom set to use the headphones.

In most cases, what you are looking for is a language server like `clangd` (works for most compilers) [1].

You can find a Language Server Protocol implementation for your editor at [2] (I don't think it lists __all__ clients, but it should include the most popular ones).

EDIT: I realized that this is a vague answer, so let me clarify.

An LSP implementation (especially clangd) provides actions like `go-to definition` or `find references` that you would find in full-featured IDEs like CLion (which is also amazing BTW). Since you mentioned vim, I am guessing you use it and don't necessarily want to let go of the hand-crafted vimrc you have created. Adding an LSP plugin to Vim is incredibly easy and gives you these "IDE" features with customizable mappings.

There are also many free Matrix severs. But I agree that Discord has much more UX polish right now. (Especially around onboarding).
I'm not sure how that solves anything. I'm worried about situations like people tracking others by placing the AirTag on their person. If they gotten close to them once, they can probably do it more times too, to retrigger the inactivity period.

> When has Apple ever put out a macOS update that didn't support 4-year-old hardware?

Every single time Apple has changed the hardware architecture of their machines.

The last generation of PowerPC macs was only supported for two years. The first generation of Intel macs was only supported for 3 years. The second generation of Intel macs was supported for >8 years.
They could, but why? To make an additional $0.0000003 a month?

Those links don't appear on my Android-based Youtube clients that come with my cable box and Sony TV. The vlogger's hand points to nothing. It's amazing how second-class Youtube on Android TV is, maybe someone at Google hates testing it. I still manage to use it for about 75% of my Youtube usage. My wife and I are definitely going through a Youtube phase, which will probably end when the ads reach a tipping point.

The Apple TV remote doesn't emit infrared. The Apple TV does that itself! (This means that "learned" remote commands work even if you're controlling the Apple TV with your phone, or with a Bluetooth controller.)
This is a stupid take–24" is fine for plenty of professional workers.
Not sure if this counts, but I'll throw my own project (semi-CLI-driven testing framework) into the ring, not as a perfect example overall, but as an example of what I wish more projects did, which was let me experiment a bit with their interfaces before I downloaded them.

This isn't something that's doable for every utility, but especially with the advent of WASM and easier cross-compiling from C, I wish more CLI/API documentation would allow me to play around with examples or try out a command on their docs page or in a sandbox; particularly if they're selling themselves as having a composable interface.

That's not only helpful for figuring out whether or not I want to use the project, it's also helpful when I look at a piece of documentation and am not sure which flag or option is actually important.
