the other M1 macbook only has 8gb possible

it would be consistent for this to only have it, unfortunately

edit: this is incorrect. 16gb is available, didn't realize.
Apple Watch for kids launched last fall with cellular and GPS support. You probably want something like it for kids in the older end of that range.
This gives you direction but not distance.
Exactly. This is my understanding.

Your choice of counterexamples highlights an important aspect. Three of the four are in fact outliers: Kubernetes and Android are both financially backed by Google. Android as a strategic advantage across a global market, Kubernetes as a plumbing layer enabling more businesses operate logically like Google. Sure, it's a CNCF product since 2016 or so, but it still enjoys Google's backing.

Postgres? They have a very specific governance model - a single company can not employ over 50% of the core contributors, to guarantee that the direction of the product is not taken over even by accident.
External power brick on an iMac? what year is this? An with a proprietary connector too?

It looks hideous, has no ports, no memory. Such a letdown.

Not one feature is a step up from the current iMac. The M1 is so limiting on a desktop.

I guess they are really trying to push people into the iPad.
(Adding to your comment)

It's not the developer's fault per se. If it's a pet project, it's arguably fine to cut the corner of cross-browser testing.

The systemic problem is that Chrome has such high market share (like IE used to have) that developers are tempted to take such shortcuts.

Do web developers have a higher social duty to test cross-browser during development? Depends on how strongly you believe in the dream of the web, I guess.

Is it your duty not to litter in public? Sure. Is it your duty to pick up litter you find on the side of the street? Probably not.
I would think they just couldn't fit a standard IEC C-14 AC connector in such a slim package.
I have no Idea. Realistically its probably not the license cost but the one time and the perpetual operational overhead associated with the license that's going to be the problem.
I have tons of room behind my desk, I have much less room on my desk. I don't want the power brick anywhere near my computer. As for 8gb, do people not see what Apple is doing here? All of their M1 entries are entry level. The true power user work will come, but this gets a lot of people converted over to M1, testing out the software/hardware, giving time for power software suppliers to focus on M1.

The additional ram will come (though with M1 it doesn't seem nearly as big of a priority to have more).
They don't have "a few cm depth", according to the page; it's "11.5 millimeters thin".
I was thinking: take a larger canvas picture and put aluminum foil or window screen on the back. If you hang it in the right spot, it might block out a large portion of your neighbor's wifi signal.
Which is why you should start preparing for it ASAP.
I mostly use Spotify for their music discovery. Podcast discovery is still really bad. Youtube is probably the place I find most podcasts.

If Spotify wants to dominate podcasts, they need great, hyper-personal podcast discovery.
That was not the question. I was comparing it to other MacOS devices

Drop an appropriate .editorconfig file in the root of your solution. IIRC that will cover most of what you want to do. As to the format on paste.. you can explore the settings.

Generally speaking, I have VS Code configured how I want it and will use that over 95% of the time... even for C# projects.

Can someone explain the 8gb obsession (edit: 16gb is possible, but why not more)?

is there a real limitation with this architecture or are they just making a business decision so they can sell multiple models over 2-3 years instead of creating what the market wants immediately
Does anyone know if this works in 3D? Could it be used to find in which floor a car was parked, for example?

One issue I see is that all the new cloud-friendly UI design apps seem to be very oriented towards flat design, so doing anything else may be an uphill battle.
As a general rule I don't sign NDA's period. I only do if I'm being compensated somehow for doing so, and if it's very specific. For a vaguely defined notion of "a chat about joining a startup", I wouldn't sign any NDA, much less one with some weird-ass term like that.
That's not really an argument against having it in stdlib, though?
I've generally seen these types of terms from arrogant and/or inexperienced founders. Arrogant ones won't change the terms and argue with you or dismiss you, inexperienced ones usually will listen and find common ground.

A typical NDA just says you won't disclose anything publicly that they haven't disclosed, not really that unreasonable honestly. It isn't a non-compete, which is the big difference. And to be clear, a NDA with a forever clause has been held up in many jurisdictions in the U.S. from what I have been told in the past. So don't treat it like a non-compete where reasonableness is part of the test. Of course if they combined a non-compete and an NDA or they tried to dress up the NDA as a non-compete, not rare sadly, then just say no and move on.

I was watching Kitboga on YouTube prank scammers with some Windows simulators. Its pretty hilarious to watch.
No shell access or Xcode.
Node.js v16.0.0 will be the first release where we ship prebuilt binaries for Apple Silicon. While we’ll be providing separate tarballs for the Intel (darwin-x64) and ARM (darwin-arm64) architectures the macOS installer (.pkg) will be shipped as a ‘fat’ (multi-architecture) binary.

Apple presenting some major hardware news today. Perfect time to release v16 :)
How long before MacOS and iPadOS have enough feature parity that they get merged?
I think a lot of what people are talking about when they say "Robinhood UI" is buying/selling, instant deposits, etc. Purchasing fractional shares on Schwab requires depositing money, waiting for it to clear, and clicking through several different pages. Robinhood making every account a margin account to allow purchases before deposits a gamechanger. That said, I agree that the charts are useless and viewing all of your holdings is a chore.
Both M1 MacBooks have 8 or 16 GB RAM.
To be fair, Free Software was never a business model. It was a licensing model that forced to cooperate even such users who have incentives to grab the code, amend it, and disseminate the closed-source altered version. Free Software is about freedom to know exactly what you are running, and to share it. This us the value it tries to capture.

Various business models can be built around it. A license that restricts closed-source cloud use, like AGPL, still preserves the openness at least. It can be combined with a dual commercial license.
Indeed, "government ain't people". If that lab full of globalized woke scientists really knew that this was a specimin of theirs you really don't think someone would have smuggled out a copy of a document by now? You really don't think that existing intelligence agencies who have eyes on the facility wouldn't have leaked what they know via the politicians they report to?

Your whole theory relies on the idea of China being a monolithic evil entity able to contain reporting of what would be the most important work of journalism in the last half century.

So demanding that it must be true because China is a monolithic evil entity seems a bit circular.

Evidence. Go get some evidence. Then put the tinfoil on your head.
In addition to phage therapy option mentioned here, there's also a class of synthetic polymers that selectively disrupts only bacterial DNA. Those molecules can't cross the nucleus and therefore are not toxic to eucaryotes.

This therapeutic direction has two key advantages over other approaches:

1. There's no way bacteria can develop resistance to it in the next 1b years, since those synthetic polymers bind to free DNA without any preference to particular sequences. Therefore, there's no known mechanism (mutations, horizontal gene transfer, etc) that can provide immunity against this class of agents.

2. Being a "small" molecule it has much less risk of eliciting an immune response ( unlike phages, who may invoke some response from immune cells which can decrease the potency of the treatment)

Here is the latest study i'm familiar with that showed pretty good results in animal models:

It'd be cool if they made a single-key Touch ID accessory for people who use other keyboards. Since they probably won't, I wonder if it's feasible to take the keyboard and chop it down to a smaller size.
It's ridiculous that Apple ships 8GB configurations in 2021. My company bought me a MacBook pro M1 with only 8GB of ram by mistake and it's extremely frustrating to have so little ram. I look forward to replace it with a laptop with 32GB of ram. Meanwhile I run devops stuff in the cloud because the laptop has not enough ram for that. Once safari advised me to close the jira tab to save ram. Such a shame.

27" / 32" will likely come with the M2 / next-gen chip, and probably have the XDR level display built in, maybe optional on the iMac Pro type model.
Didn't previous 27' came with 5K?
Wireless Xbox controllers work fine with Apple TV. The bigger problem is that the games simply are not designed with a TV and console controller in mind. Even the Apple Arcade titles, which are generally very polished on iPhone and iPad, are pretty janky with a controller, and nearly unusable with the Apple TV Siri Remote (even though they claim to be designed for these input devices).

But yes, it's very frustrating to me that the Apple TV doesn't have a rich gaming ecosystem. I'm pretty sure the hardware is powerful enough to deliver great performance and modern graphics for everything except the most photorealistic and flashy triple-A titles. Given that they offer Apple Arcade on the Apple TV, it's one of those surprising corners of the Apple ecosystem where you feel like a second-class citizen.
Apple TV is a control nexus for smart home devices if your smart home devices use HomeKit.
I don’t get it. Why would you not put that display on iMac but on iPad pro? Makes no sense...well I guess it would for marketing idiots.
When you don’t achieve your sprint goals
What kinds of iPadOS workflows benefit from this most? The device never seemed lacking in performance.
Right, because people typically need to buy several power cables over the lifetime of their desktop computer since they tend to break so often.
Because the less pixelated it looks the more natural a conversation flows?

Are you asking why is it important to have a good camera for online video conferencing? Look at all the guides that teach people how to use DSLRs as their webcams.
It doesn't seem to stop people from trying though: https://www.bearssl.org/constanttime.html

(This sort of thing is not my area of expertise, but has always made me uneasy...)
It's on the power adapter and shares the same cord as the power cable so only 1 cable is needed to the iMac.
> Joe is getting less likeable lately...

Agreed - he always had a noticeable tilt on issues but lately it seems to be all about scoring sick dunks on SJW's. I was also surprised how little prep he apparently does before podcasts. During the latest Elon Musk episode he learned on-air that the reusable rockets land propulsively (as opposed to using parachutes or otherwise). It's odd to have possibly the richest man in the world on for 3 multi-hour podcasts and not know the most basic facts about their accomplishments.
Not if the alert is delayed
The U1 might be a big differentiator - a lot more fine tuned way of determining the presence (spatially) of where the airtag is
We (Transloadit) have been running Node.js in production the longest, since 2008, processing many petabytes, globally, hundreds of machines when not thousands, and it has not let us down. Lot of faith in Node over here.
I avoided replacing my 2015 MBP until 2020 because of the arrow keys (when they finally fixed). Not great to seem them still clinging to that asymmetric design.
Maybe use one of the  stickers included in the box?
I remember when USB 3 was finalized and they introduced a MacBook Air, Schiller or someone was on stage and said “You’ll notice, unlike other pc manufacturers, we didn’t make our ports blue to signify USB 3 vs USB 2. That’s because every port is USB 3.”

(It’s a limitation of the I/O bandwidth on the M1, which makes me wonder why they didn’t wait for a new generation before building desktops with it. Maybe they were afraid of having no iMacs on the shelf since the old ones were discontinued?)
And it has soldered SSD, so it can swap really really fast ;)
Does this mean the power supply is external now, and sits on the floor or in the outlet? Because that case is awfully thin.

The article isn't entirely clear, but suggests that it will use the network of iOS devices around it and that the AirTag will start beeping as well.

Seems like it should be able to detect that it's always traveling together with a single Android phone's WiFi signal, for example.
This was my first thought. Is there any downside to putting one on my dog?
Contrary to your conspiracy theory, they did change all power cables to USB-C on later Mac laptops.

And people and reviewers lamented the loss of the proprietary MagSafe power...
Yes - especially curious if it works in 3D, e.g., in a parking garage.
Are you meaning to refer to JavaScript rather than Node.js? I don't know of a way to use the Node.js runtime inside of a browser (the frontend), my feeling is that's pretty redundant.
That's cool and all, but how do they handle a trainload of people all going the same direction sitting near each other? I mean public transportation is still a thing.
Discord is more like a ventrilo replacement for gamers. It was primarily voice chat in its early days. They've done a lot of work to make the chatroom space on par with any other chat application you'd use otherwise. They also now allow for direct screenshare and game streaming.

I wouldn't ever have considered Discord for Enterprise use at a serious company, but I guess it could do everything Slack can. For personal use it's more versatile for group stuff like gaming or group presentations (my friends have used it for music/video production meetings).

Hopefully soon.
Considering world environmental issues we should slow down consumerism around the world rather than accelerate it.
For me it looks like a useless piece of tech in a long run (30-50 years).
My opinion
I don't think they got overconfident at all - I think that slack was relatively well built but lacking too much of a value proposition to differentiate themselves. Then they got acquired before anyone realized how much of their usage was marketing driven and how little was driven by the quality of their application.

I'm not saying it's bad by any means - in fact the search functionality is pretty sweet... but there is very little there that couldn't be out competed.
To add to your point, the only time I've ever consciously bought something from an ad was through a podcast, and I've done it several times now.
24" devices are tiny - I'd consider 27" to be a reasonable size and 32" to be optimal for detailed work or for aged eyes.

I suspect this device is targeted towards kids and students (as evidenced by the colours and the choice of voice actor), and Apple wants adults and workers to buy a (more expensive) future iMac Pro with a bigger screen.
It seems it would be really performance limiting to use the same board from the macbook air, even with a much better active heatsink/fan...
They are the same already. Just different user interfaces.
I don't understand what you mean about their charts, my regular broker has no real time charts at all, and the charts they do provide leave a lot to be desired. RH chart's also allows you to jump between day/week/3 month/etc and get a summary of performance within those ranges (which would normally be tabular data). Plus you can mouse hover over the history to get spot pricing on that date.

High information density has a place, but when it directly results on me needing two different screens to get the information I need on one screen then it is a real problem. For example my regular broker's order flow requires me to have two tabs, one to order, and one to show my existing position's cost basis. That's broken.

I think the situation speaks more to just how terrible existing broker's UI/UX is, rather than RH inventing something novel. They just make an interface that was basically solid, which is oddly rare for brokers.

Google's homepage has better stock charts than my regular broker for example (and RH's charts are better than Google's).
Governance won't help if you have no contributors at all because there's no revenue coming in.
>What I really want is the ability to make my remote control beep so I can find it. That's literally the only feature that I want at this point.

Yes. I am trying to Find out if the new Remote has the AirTag feature built in. But since they didn't announce it I am guessing not. Sigh. I thought it was the best use case for AirTag or Precision Location.

Edit: Search through the spec and nothing mentioned. God Damn it WHY! Add the $29 to the price of Apple TV 4K or Remote if they really cared about money.

Now that the Remote can Finally turn on the TV. Apple TV is taking the centre stage of TV experience with a single remote. All we need next is a Dump TV or even a "Monitor" so to speak. And Apple courting current TV Station to put out an App for their current livestream content. Essentially replacing Over the Air Broadcast with Broadcast via IP. Then All your "TV" experience can happen on Apple TV.

Then someday may be they could allow Apple TV to be a Router so there is one less devices in my living room. And they could also act as a mesh system.
Sometimes you need to be a "power user" to encounter all a product's flaws. I've been using it professionally for 3.5 years, and I touch pretty much every feature. I had high hopes because I loved a lot of the decisions they were making, so I started maintaining a list of issues/bugs. I reported them when I had time to describe them well. After a year, it got into the hundreds, with some that were pretty dramatic, and I stopped caring enough to continue, because it was clearly not going to be the product I was hoping it could be. Since then, the most obvious problem that has happened is slowdown. It takes full seconds to do most navigation/loading in our (large) team. The whole affair made me truly sad, frustrated, and angry.
That does not seem to be the case. From [1]

The difference between the AGPL and traditional GPL is simple: The AGPL seeks to close a "loophole" that allows a company or organization to modify GPL'ed software and use it to provide a service — but without actually distributing changes. So a company can take a package like, say, WordPress and modify the software significantly to sell a service — but hold back changes because it's not technically "distributing" or "propagating" the software. The AGPL goes a bit further and says that if the program is "intended to interact with users through a computer network" and if the version that you received gives users "the opportunity to request transmission to that user of the Program's complete source code," you have to maintain that functionality and distribute the modified version.

Does anyone know if the automatic color calibration tool they mentioned is coming to existing Apple TV's?
The Air and Pro boards are quite different, surprisingly. Search for some teardowns. (Don't know the reason)
I suspect Apple designers think the RJ45 is an ugly cable that should not sully the minimalism of their smoothed rectangles.

Jokes aside, putting the connection on the power brick actually seems like a really smart idea for cable management under the desk. And, you will have one fewer cable plugging into the back.
yes, I really like that, I hope they introduce it in macbook pro power adapters as well.
Glad to see M1 appear on an iMac. This redesign though. Ooof. Not my cup of tea.
Sure, but is that actually good for them?
The "commercial" they used to introduce this during the event was hilarious and awesome: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbApA2JLZ_c
Planned obsolescence has never really been Apple's style (their devices generally get longer software support and have better resale value than anyone else).

It's just about scale for the time being, probably.

The M1 chip is now in 5 different devices. That is 100% worth not fulfilling everyone's RAM needs for the fantastic economies of scale and engineering simplicity that brings. They'll come out with an M2 soon enough, which will undoubtedly have more RAM and they'll stick in the iMac Pro, Mac Pro, and MBP 16" (and possibly "backport" to other devices).

That being said I just "downgraded" from an Intel 16" MBP with 32GB RAM to an M1 13" with 16GB RAM and haven't noticed much of a difference, even though I was regularly getting to 80-90% RAM utilization on my 16".
Do you think Tile came up with this idea?
Are they going to let you serve it from your own domain name? I’d love to have my site have a csp default-source self, and not need any other origins listed...
> simply selling games and giving deals

They already did try that, and they also then tried pivoting to subscription model (a la Gamepass), both failed and eventually they closed their game store entirely.

You could argue that maybe they tried it too soon, but I don't think so. The competition is kinda big with Microsoft, Steam and Epic. I don't think people want to own games on their chat app.
Conditionally-off blocks of code under #ifdefs are challenging for it, yes - it runs a proper C++ compiler on your code and won't get to see code in those blocks without the right defines.

Don't blindly apply its suggestions - test them, skim to see what it got wrong, sprinkle some "// IWYU pragma: keep" to help it out in corner cases. The tool is more like a linter, you don't follow everything that your linter tells you to, no?
Think this is a hard limitation of some sort on the M1 itself. This iMac seems like it's the Air version of the iMac, definitely not the "Pro" version. All the pro stuff will likely go there.
