They moved the ethernet port into the power adapter.
That could be the case. The Ethernet-Port is moved to the Powerbrick.
I think you do make a good point. The Armagnacs really were decimated and their prospects dimmed. But the country still had enough of a competent elite that they were able to resist English conquest. That it took another 30 years speaks to the relative stalemate that was achieved, and also shows the French elite were able to field a competent set of leaders.

I'm trying to say the pool of available talent matters. If the US cabinet is wiped out, there'll be plenty of similarly competent elites to replace them. After all, it happens every few years with new presidencies and power transfer between parties.

Yes, winning the war means the French kept their own kings in power. Clearly all of this is a huge waste of resources and probably wasn't very good for the average peasant.
Huh, that's nonsense. Every vaccination also carries risks, so there can be no moral obligation if the risks outweigh the benefits.
That said, I also disagree with the moral obligation. At the very least, there are also other scenarios to consider. For example if only a small group is at risk and can't be vaccinated (too risky), that small group could be isolated or choose to self isolate. Afaik it already happens with chemotherapy patients who are being isolated. There is no obligation for the rest of the world to disinfect everything and walk around in hazmat suits so that chemotherapy patients can walk freely in the outer world.
What if the person you're tracking doesn't have an apple device?
16GB RAM usually not a base config option but shows up in the configurator once you select one of the 2-3 base models. TBD once the store reopens.
>If binding energy increased all the way up you wouldn't be able to have nuclear fission.

You would, because the smaller nuclides have higher total binding energy than the large nuclides. That doesn't contradict every step inbetween being favorable. You are adding hydrogen with zero binding energy.
Hey look, they rediscovered that color exists! I dig it.
apparently it's in the charging brick
I wonder if a U1 UWB chip be precise enough to detect if if the ATV has moved. Using 1 HomePod mini as a reference point, and more precision with more HomePods.

The location of the screen could be learned with some "Apple Magic," i.e. an AR setup process using an iPhone
iOS is the future of the company. Mac will shrink asymptotically as a fraction of their overal R&D investment.
It’s in the (MagSafe!) power brick, which is super weird.
Yeah. I really wish they went with 27” if they’re going to pick just one.
Even on the old one, I wouldn't be sure what it was tbh. Thank god for tooltips and mouseover actions in general. It's the one thing a touch based UX misses more than anything, and probably why, even though I can do more on my phone, there's still a lot of things I'll head over to a computer with a keyboard/mouse to do anyway.
Why? I think 720p is the maximum need for a front facing camera on any device. What would you want a 4K front facing camera for? Most video-conferencing wont even allow more than 480p to preserve bandwidth.
So if a thief steals my jacket with an AirTag inside, some time later it’ll start beeping? At which point he’ll discard the AirTag and I won’t be able to track down my jacket. Kinda lame.
It’s still post processing to create a sound stage to a stereo signal. Nothing wrong with that, but for instance if I’m watching a movie on an iPhone or something, I’m assuming I can’t get the true audio experience of the film.

When it’s a movie I really am into, then I’m going to watch it in full surround, with discreet speakers. 7.1 to stereo headphones is always a compromise whether it’s Apple spatial audio, or Dolby Atmos for Headphones.

And absolutely I get your point, that it’s great for watching it at night. I’m just guessing their market for 4K Apple TV is more home theater people.

Usually when I’m watching at night with headphones I’ll be on the iPad.

Again it’s not that I don’t see the use case, I just wouldn’t call it “baffling” since the market is a little different.
I'm really surprised that Apple decided not to have the Apple Logo emblazoned on the front of the iMac. It's a good looking computer but if you had shown me one before this event I would have assumed it was some other all-in-one PC.

I also can't help but think a black bezel would look better.
Yes, running 24/7 as a daemon using builtin cluster module processing tens of thousands of requests per second.

Also as a data service for connection pooling databases that don't support connection pooling with supplied drivers or server-side.
There will likely be a more powerful 27-30" iMac with a stronger chip in the fall.
I'm sorry, hit me up on my email in my profile if you want to discuss more! A "Is Joe Rogan a racist?" conversation is not interesting, and this place is about hosting interesting discussions.
Apple covered the “person being tracked doesn’t use iOS case” - read the article.
Apple has really started investing in and pushing for their arcade subscription.

The A12 Bionic should be a lot faster which is a major point if you want to use those features.
If you are looking for a typed stack, you can give a spin to TypeScript.
For cameras, the resolution is only one of a ton of relevant factors for quality. What's most important is the sensor quality.
The resolution jump may be worth it alone, to be honest.
Cracking the case: New study sheds more light on the “Brazil nut effect”
Strange, the flu disappears every year without any specific counter measures at all. I think citations are needed to prove Covid-19 would only go away with vaccinations and lockdowns.
If you have an iPhone yes. Will it let the Android users know?

Magsafe for a stationary computer...
There is.

He offers to rewrite the name with that of the buyer.

And while the paper "belongs" to him, in reality that paper is a credential issued by Harvard, and the source of truth for credential holders is Harvard, not the holders/subjects.

All colleges maintain lists of credential holders.

An attempt to verify the ownership and subject of the credential- which happens quite often, many mid to high level employment offers, all background checks, etc, perform this verification- using the buyer's name, fraudulently rewritten on the piece of paper- will fail.

Issuing fraudulent credentials of various kinds and advertising them as valid...is fraud.

And if you don't think so...I've got a bridge to sell you.

Cheers.
This is what I want to know. I actually greatly dislike the touch pad on the current remote. I am constantly swiping too fast (flying by my desired target), or my upward/downward swipes are not working as desired. Not to mention every time I pick up the remote, the touch pad thinks I'm swiping causing my movie to fast forward/rewind.
Yeah, I mostly just wanted to toss them a few bucks since they've created an app that I really love. That's a good point, though -- I've recommended Pocket Casts to a lot of folks at this point, and pushed several off of listening to podcasts on Spotify so I'm doing my part to contribute in small ways.
1080p is plenty for video calls (in my opinion). It's not like you're going to be using an iMac for serious photography.
Even most external webcams are limited to 1080p. It's not practical to stream 1440p or higher right now, on demand streaming is super computationally heavy.
Building a Cheap APRS Digipeater
Honestly, I have no idea.

I think if there would be a possibility to pay money to have what we are doing reviewed by Grafana and be "certified" to be withing what they consider acceptable under the AGPL that might actually be a good option
It's a big leap to go from "not 100% certain and objective" to "meaningless, entirely invented fiction".
I am not excited at all for the Ethernet port to be part of the power supply. It just makes my job harder. I will probably be buying external 10Gbe adapters anyway.

The memory is also a concern. They didn't show the memory in the summary slide like they did with the MacBooks and Mac mini. This is just disappointing. I hope 16gb an option.

I really wish we could get back to 32gb.

[edit] 16GB is an option according to the tech specs page https://www.apple.com/imac-24/specs/ [/edit]
It’s one of the most popular destinations for gaming/tech discussion rooms and teamtalk (during games) what they do, they do really well, that’s their advantage.
It's hard to pitch discord in the workplace, especially against an incumbent like Slack or Teams. It comes across as very "casual" and unprofessional, which is a shame, because it really is a top-quality product.

It's never seemed to be a focus of Discord, it's just the niche they've chosen. Even their own homepage description doesn't mention work:

> Whether you’re part of a school club, gaming group, worldwide art community, or just a handful of friends that want to spend time together, Discord makes it easy to talk every day and hang out more often.

A business version would need 1st-party integrations with GSuite/LDAP/OAuth (you can work around this with a bot but that's already a negative). It needs audit log features, retention rules (for ATIP requests and the like), less gaming icons, a disabled game shop, strip out mentions of nitro. Lots of things really.
Modules won't allow to rely on transitive includes, which is one half of the problem.
It won't solve the other half (importing too much).
The 4 identical ports, 2 with Thunderbolt icons feels like a real swing and a miss at cleaner UX.

Is it really that infeasible to just make all identical ports behave identically?

My parents have a story about how at age 6 I moved our Apple IIGS into my bedroom. They were more bewildered than angry. The one thing I remember is my older brother saying how because every port was uniquely shaped even a child can set up an Apple.
Yes, the way these orbits work, in order to cover one area, they orbits cover the entire globe up at least to that latitude. A geostationary orbit can "fly" above one specific spot, but that's limited to being above equator and very, very far compared to these orbits (~35000 km vs ~1000 km) which makes it worse for communications.

Here's an illustration of the coverage - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starlink#/media/File:Starlink_...
Dishy McFlatface to become “fully mobile,” allowing Starlink use away from home
This is standard practice depending on how “early” they are and what funding they already secured.
Its one thing to deal with rare losses, but a lot of competitive gamers seem really unhappy trying to deal with constant loss and feelings of powerlessness or low status. Its not something you can be average in any more.

I worry those kind of games will eventually mirror rl sports, where we have a professional class and a majority of watchers.
"AWS is a strategic partner, and given the commercial relationship AWS has with us for AMG, AWS and their AMG customers are not impacted by this change.

Given they come in multiple colours (and this was a selling point), it looks more aimed at home users/classroom - web browsing, watching movies, light photography/video/audio editing, etc.

Those seeking more power would likely opt for a MBP and external monitor.
For blue collars this is even more clear-cut. You're clearly paid for what you physically produce during your work time. What you produce at home is yours.

If you're a blue collar I don't think any employer would claim ownership of the DIY stuff you produce in your garage.
I'm almost certain there are products that look nearly identical to this in Black Mirror. If not, it looks like it belongs in an episode.
Fewer pylons and other gaming memes.
Yup, I've been noticing that. Indeed, I've been preparing to cancel my subscription (backing up my "library"/playlists externally etc.), and their push into podcasts (and pushing them on me) is one of the reasons.
No Ethernet port on a desktop is just insane. I can see the sense in saying "your dock is Thunderbolt and Ethernet goes on the dock" for laptops, but on a dekstop?
It wasn't marketed as Magsafe in the presentation, more as a convenience feature.
Aye, nothing like investor pressure and quarterly growth targets to kill an otherwise good company/product.
You don't want more pixels, you want better pixels, optics and positioning.
People on AV forums seem to enjoy giving $400+ to ISF certified calibrators, so maybe this is a nice middle ground?
Well that's odd, I get hit by multiple (3-4) 60-120 second ads about 2-3 times per podcast.
No they won’t - read the article. Numerous protections against it being used as a “secret tracer”
Weatherproof APs mounted outside or in the attic.
I'm not entirely convinced by your argument. Some years ago there was an episode of the Gadget Show where they were testing an app for suggesting food ideas. I can't remember how it was supposed to work, it was too long ago, but it was something to do with having profiles of different food types programmed into it and then it used some sort of algorithm to compare taste profiles and come up with combinations that should work.

The combination it came up with that they then tried selling on a food stall was chocolate on pizza. It wasn't to everybody's taste but some liked it, with one describing it as "weirdly delicious".

It doesn't seem completely ridiculous that if an AI could be trained to recognise patterns of music that worked well together that it could analyse a large corpus of recorded music and come up with surprising mixes that you wouldn't think would work, but do.
This just made me realize how great Tetris could be to build up muscle memory for vim keys: I recently arranged my directional key like that on a separate layer (just got an ergodox).
Since the link isn’t updated yet, here’s an article on the new A12 Apple TV https://www.shacknews.com/article/123934/new-apple-tv-4k-ann...
It’s less wasteful to use disposable and non-rechargeable batteries?
I’m not sure I'd draw a distinction. People used to say you should initialise your variables in C89 to NULL, so you'd get a crash if you forget to properly set the variable. But enough security bugs have been caused by null pointer dereferences.

In the Rust case, IIRC, Rust annotates functions with the LLVM attribute no_unwind. I'd expect bad things, thanks to optimisation passes, if an unwind were to start. Doubly so if mixing GCC with MSVC ABI.
Yes, all this screen time is hurting your eyes
> Makes the users feel like the devs care.

Isn't that true of virtually all internet companies BEFORE their IPO?

After the IPO, the new owners (aka: the stock market investors) demand profits. And those profit demands result in the slowly, but surely, fleecing of customers.

Be it Geocities, Tumblr, Slack, or whatever really. If you start with a "growth-oriented" service with a free product for clicks/subscribers, the community always grows disappointed when the money starts to flow. (Geocities / Tumblr were acquired, but same idea really. The new owners demanded $$$$ be made and the community suffered)

--------

In contrast, companies that seem to charge early (ie: Amazon: AWS or the storefront) seem to be more sustainable. Customers get used to paying for the service, and don't mind paying a fair price to stay a customer.

Alternatively: being a digital nomad: moving from service to service during their "free periods" seems moderately sustainable. It seems like new companies can offer free services... until they can't. At which point, you pick up your community and move to the next free service. Especially for communities built up around entertainment (video games), having a digital nomad lifestyle is fine since the community actually has tons of freetime.
They'd have to offer the source code to Grafana itself, which has basically negligible effect since it doesn't have anything of theirs in it.
8gb of ram and 256gb SSD make this a fashion accessory, a fancy email/news/facebook machine for your desk/office. I think these are going to be wildly popular actually. I hope it leads to a better mid-range iMac somewhere between this and a $5000 iMac pro.
Trying to force density on people will fail because people don't like being told what to do and the government is terrible at telling people what to do. Just let people build whatever, wherever (hazardous commercial activity notwithstanding) and the suitable density for the area will develop naturally... like it did pre-ww2
Using macOS on a tablet would be horrible.

Get a MacBook.
That was really short and sweet. Thanks for the writeup!
What dispersed all of the fear for me was reading this: https://berthub.eu/articles/posts/reverse-engineering-source...

Especially the part about poly-A tail. IIUC, it means that each mRNA "particle" that gets delivered into your body has an upper limit on how many times the protein will get synthesized from it, and the payload only contains info on the spike protein, so there should be no runaway synthesis of something else that would take over my entire body. Standard disclosure: IANADoctor. Also, got my first shot 3 days ago.
The UX and featureset of Discord is impressive. The UX in particular is superior to Slack, Teams, or any other modern chat application I've used.

I'd like to move my group to Matrix, but Element (fka Riot.im) is nowhere near as polished or user-friendly as Discord.
Why the chin bar? The could have easily removed it now that there is no logo on it, and the logic board footprint is now next to nothing. Their design decisions are just plain weird. Also, why is there no black version? No network ports? No USB type A ports? Really?
This might be the case. However there is an additional risk and process component:

- you might not want to risk because you don't have lawyers etc in your company.

- even if you have lawyers etc in your company, if there are 2 alternatives one which is just an MIT license, you'll probably go for that one because you don't want to have a 1.5 month review of the use of this AGPL licensed alternative.

In general things like this https://github.com/xdspacelab/openvslam/wiki/Termination-of-... (repo with 3k stars), an effort terminated because of some traces of GPL code MIGHT be somewhere in there comes to light. Even though Grafana etc are mostly tools, for my startup I would probably not risk any of this (for my own sake and also for any kind of due diligence in case it ever gets acquired)
>If you fused into something bigger, it would still be more efficient to split that atom and fuse it's nucleons into more Iron.

Of course, but that doesn't easily happen, as the nucleons are already bound together into heavier nuclides.
In fact I guess that might happen in supernovas: The main sequence burns into lead, which is then reconstituted into the iron-nickel mixture that we know from iron meteorites, which also releases energy due to the higher average binding energy per nucleon, but needs extreme conditions to occur.
I'm not sure that, one, I want people to see my mug in even higher def or, two, that I trust my ISP's upstream bandwidth to carry my 2k+ video feed very well.
ye but government ain't people and the CCP has not been forthcoming in providing the evidence it has. Your attitude falls apart in this climate. There is no evidence so there is no one to blame.

Perfect! Chimes the CCP.
The clean, consistent, expressive user interface of the Classic windows theme (introduced in Win95), in my opinion, is better than the inconsistent and often confusing mix of styles and paradigms that Windows 10 offers today.
Better quality (sensor, color, compression, networking) is much more important than raw resolution.
I applaud this decision.

I would like to see all major SaaSS projects be AGPLv3. End users still have freedom to user, modify, and distribute the software. Cloud providers must share contributions.

This is how I like it.
Costs shouldn't rise or fall based on the price of the coin. You can pay directly in USD for the storage so that you don't have to worry about the pricing shifts.
I've run across that same kind of situation a few times, but when I told them that I felt anything longer than 5 years was unreasonable, the other party simply modified the NDA clause to 5 years without a complaint.

If the founders do not have much experience or money, they may have simply downloaded the NDA off the internet and are working with what they have, rather than actually running it by a lawyer. If so, it might be worth sending them your own NDA version and saying "I'll sign this one". Assuming you still want to chat with them.
They also seem to have upgraded the Magic Keyboard with Touch ID.

I wonder how this new model works on PCs. The previous one was flawless.

And whether keyswitches have been modified.
Been using Teams for work for two years and I have so many complaints.
The lack of a black color in general is notable. (likely saving it for a Pro)
Nice! I wasn't aware of this new unlicensed spectrum. It will take years to become widely available but it's great news.
Ask HN: Recommend Adult ADHD coach and/or business coach?
Hi folks,

Could anyone recommend a coach for an entrepreneurial techie / creative with ADHD (distractible type)? Ideally someone you have experience with.

Also interested in recommendations for a business coach.

Finally, do any non-high-net-worth individuals have experiences or advice on hiring a personal assistant?

Thanks!
What about just paying for a commercial licence to use it to meet your needs?
It's a story about the life course of Mary Ann Vecchio, the woman in the most famous photo from the day in 1970 when the National Guard killed four students at Kent State:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kent_State_shootings

I've known the photo for decades, but I did not know the woman in front of the body was only 14, and I knew nothing of her life before or after the shootings. The photo was always a frozen moment for me.

Neil Young's song Ohio (with the famous refrain four dead in Ohio) is about that day.
But you need to be a SJW to reject due process and the principle of charity, and opt for maximum moral outrage to exert control and power. Your claim that he defended somebody in a sex trafficking ring is not actually true, for example. Either you are unaware of that and simply run with the narrative of the SJW ideology, which would be exactly the goal, or you are deliberately misrepresenting it, which would also make the point that it is about politics, not personal disgust.

Or explained in another way: apparently Stallman has not done anything illegal. So the people who insist on him being cut down want to install a new justice system. That's SJW ideology.
I find it odd that this doesn't make mention of civil engineering or construction engineering in the architecture analogy. Like, absolutely the artificial world should be designed with objectives like appropriateness, but that doesn't mean you don't need to have people whose roles focus on the technical approach to carrying out a design.

We _have_ product design experts and processes for software products, but that's not a reason to not have engineers. And as to why they're not celebrities typically ... I think that's also in part because the companies that produce software want to control their brands. This isn't a threat for architects; BMW doesn't lose anything by us knowing that Zaha Hadid designed a building for them. If she had then designed a building Toyota, that wouldn't have been a problem. Their value proposition isn't about the building they work from. But if you knew and cared about the name of the specific designer behind your favorite software product, and they left the company ... that would be a problem for that company. Part of the prestige associated with their core offering is able to walk away.
