It does, doesn't it?

My company has thousands of Macbooks. I've never heard of anything remotely similar.

My current laptop is a 2016 model. No repairs needed, ever. Only now the battery is complaining. Not even the butterfly keyboard gave me any issues. It's likely the only repair it will ever need is the battery. Or maybe not even that, it's overdue for a replacement due to age. But works just fine.

I also have a 2015 model. Also fine. Dropped it in concrete. A small dent. Totally fine.

Unless quality has significantly degraded, this sounds like a bad unit/batch.
> especially if the laptop is hot and goes into my backpack directly.

I'd found MANY times that simply closing one of the more recent MacBooks (2019?) would not actually put it to sleep. I would close it, put it in my bag, then... hours later, find it was overly hot, still running, perhaps with 10% battery left. 2008 MB, 2012 MBP, 2015 MBP - never ever had this problem. I'm sure I overheated my 2019 MBP far more often than it was designed for.

Very cool project. I’d love to see more Go projects pop up because they’re absolutely great to learn Go. Have you had a chance to benchmark the maximal throughput? (I.e. 100MB/s on a 1Gbps max?)

Using $10,000 as an example.

Assuming super expensive fuel and terrible efficiency...

Gas car - 20 miles/gallon, $4.00/gallon ($4.00/20 = $0.20/mile. $10,000/$0.20 = 50,000 miles)

Electric car - 200 miles/74kWh [Tesla M3], $0.25/kWh (74 * $0.25 = $18.50. $18.50/200 miles = $0.0925/mile. $10,000/$0.0925 = 108,108 miles)

So assuming a gas car since the miles are the most expensive there, you would be looking at 50,000 miles for $10,000 in fuel. That checks out for me.

Using that assumption.

Uber charges $0.78/mile and $0.27/minute.

Assume only 75% of driving is charged to the customer (going to a fare, going to a charger, etc), that gives you 37,500 miles.

Assuming 45 miles per hour (probably too high) at $0.27/minute = (37,500/45)60 = 50,000 minutes of driving $0.27 = $13,500

37,500 miles * $0.78 = $29,250

So $42,750 in rev. - $30,000 in fuel, insurance, maintenance, and depreciation, you're still $12,750 in profit. Again, is pretty much giving every disadvantage possible. In an electric car scenario you could easily drive 200,000 miles on $10,000 in electricity. Which would multiply all numbers by 4.

I'm not trying to take your numbers too specifically, just illustrating for the sake of discussion.

Interesting. I look forward to hearing if this works out long term. I'd be worried about legal implications of something like this but IANAL.

Wow, I've never seen such a prudish comment so amply stated.

> Sexual liberation has made people easier to control. It has truncated their humanity, warped them, and turned them into sex robots.

This is entirely based on nothing. Even worse, it ignores the much more direct and relevant innovations in the area of controlling populations - propaganda and advertising.

> a rather stark example is the broadcasting of porn on captured Palestinian television by the Israelis; you think they were trying to liberate them?

No, they were trying to shock and humiliate Muslim sensibilities, similar to stashing pork on busses. Sexuality is not some secret sauce of controlling people - there are much more direct ways of doing so, especially with the power of a state like Israel.

Just like Howard Stern (note, SiriusXM also owns Spotify). They traded a broader audience and greater influence for stability and gigantic paychecks. E.g., in Howard's case, even though his personal influence shrunk, his importance to Sirius/Spotify grew as a fraction of the subscriber base is dedicated to one talent and would otherwise unsubscribe. Howard's deal has been renewed a number of times now. I can't blame anyone involved.

There is literally no barrier to just asking. If you believe you're undervalued but like working at your company/with your manager, just ask. If they're a decent manager they'll be straight with you about money and market. If the answer is "No, that's outside of our payment band for this market", you could go get an offer and then have them counter, or you could just leave, but there's generally no harm in just asking.
Damn, and I thought I've had to take my 13" 2016 Pro in for a lot of repairs. There's a design flaw that makes it chew through batteries every 8-16 months and I just had to have a week-long involuntary vacation while they shipped it off to a repair center in another case, where the entire top half of the case got replaced for the third time.

This is the most expensive Mac I've owned in like 18y of using the things, even before I count the fact that only one of those battery replacements happened before the extended warranty ran out, and estimate the cost of several unplanned vacations.

My next machine will probably be a 2022 Air; I had a succession of Intel Airs that gave me very little trouble before this battery-devouring Pro. I'm hoping their solidity has survived the transition to Apple silicon.
That's because self-hosted implies choice of where it's run; you don't offer that.
>>Johnson said a lot of things that he shouldn’t have. Even mentioning that there was some research done into “pre-detonating” a bomb would have been classified (I don’t know anything about this, but it would be entirely unsurprising that this idea was looked into).

>This is the start of what would become missile defense, although it's phrased in the language of the time, as much of the rest of the article is.

No, Johnson is almost certainly referring to the fission primary in a fusion weapon.

When he spoke on radio, no one was seriously talking about ICBMs, and even the early Navy SLCMs were a decade away, so any and all defense against nuclear weapons was AA and fighters against incoming bomber fleets, Battle of Britain-style.

So, you are in a place where you have very niche experience, and if you were laid off you would have significant work to find another job.

And your manager is unable to put you in a position to succeed.

So, it may be time to take a step down, or when the next set of layoffs come, you might be in a bad place when you least expect it and when jobs are the most difficult to find.

This is the best time in the last 10 years that I've seen in getting new jobs.
It sounds like Apple's poor build quality directly netted them an extra sale. Why build better hardware when they can cultivate brand loyalty?
Sounds like a defective machine. I'm surprised Apple didn't just give them a new one after the 2nd or 3rd repair.

That said, looking at the keyboard condition makes me think it was in some pretty harsh conditions. My 2012 17" keys still look almost new.

I've only had a single experience where I had to repair my Mac in ~8 laptops, which was my Apple M1 aAr that died from plugging in a third party USB-C adapter (multiple reports of this happening).

There is a corporate analog here in the form of a non-disclosure agreement. If you don't want to be part of the Maori community anymore, you can leave, like you can quit your job at Apple, but you're still not allowed to share Apple's knowledge with anyone else.

IIRC the "new coke" was exactly that. They never intended to change coke, but loss aversion was an effective lever in wresting mindshare away from the pepsi challenge.
I mean, they say outright they hire old people and they hire young people. So I think you can make the argument fairly easily that that group includes everyone and that they are not discriminating.

Actually, people do. That happens fairly regularly in conflicts. Civilians are often a target by policy. Plus, by neglect - superiors not caring what this or that sociopath does.

In Afghanistan case, there was period when per policy anyone with walkie talkie counted as valid target. Phones did not worked. So there is fair chance some attacks hit civilians and it was policy.
Linux turns 30: Linus Torvalds on his “just a hobby” operating system
My sister has a trade and has talked about the salary distribution enough that I think it’s going to be very hard for anyone to ever agree on numbers.

She describes it as a bimodal distribution. One (smaller) group of people with trades are willing to work anywhere whenever. They work in fly-in camps with limited work seasons and practically unlimited overtime. Since there’s nothing else to do, they log enough hours to get into double and triple time. The other (larger) group goes home after work and their overtime is limited to nonexistent. The pay is so different between the two groups that if they’re analyzed together, the statistically typical tradesperson looks nothing like the typical tradesperson.
Clickbait basically.

I feel they would be better off going to GitHub and messaging people working on the type of projects they are looking for.

I like the consulting part. Maybe they don't absolutely need an FTE and are keeping the option of having a part time consultant on the table.

We have surprisingly little corruption in Sweden. Not that it doesn’t exist, but it’s far from the norm.

Anyway, I’m not arguing for the solution. I just brought it up as I think it’s an interesting historical footnote. Even the finance minister of the ruling party that introduced them famously wrote a poem that goes something like (in fine translation by google)

The wage earners' funds are fucking crap,
now we've dumped them all the way here.
Then they should be filled with every union bigwig
who supported us so strongly in our struggle.
Now we do not have to go more rounds,
until the whole of Sweden is full of funds.

I think this whole affair is hilarious, but I’m afraid it is somewhat lost in translation.

Well FWIW, I have a Retina MBP that's close to ten years old. It's been on 24 hours a day, almost everyday since the day I bought it. It's travelled with me to different countries, endured extreme humidity in some areas of the world, and is still running reasonably well today. I've had a lot of computers over the past few decades and it's IMO the best computer I've owned. I skipped out a few generations of MBP's because I didn't feel the need to upgrade.

A few years ago, I bought an XPS because I wanted a PC and it was underwhelming considering I treated it with a lot of extra care. I experienced various bugs running simple games. The fans would go into overdrive despite keeping the drivers up-to-date, raising the laptop to give good airflow, and no graphic intensive program running.

Ultimately, I think it's a bit of a luck of the draw. I don't doubt there are people who have horrible experiences with any brand.
Not GP, but I assumed they are talking about the part that they quoted —- consulting gig while on another job, not any discrimination worries.
MacBooks are great machines, but once you need repairs for a fairly new one, you'd better hope you sprung for Apple Care.

I recently had a MacBook that wouldn't start. I'm decent with computer repair and have a modest background in it, but let the safety screws dissuade me from opening it.

I brought it to a repair store where they said it had water damage, which was what I anticipated. I'm guessing they saw that the humidity dots had been triggered, which were probably due to my laptop being in humid conditions at some point beforehand, as I think the water just barely got into a port via condensation from a nearby object.

They called back saying that the water damage repair would come to $850 level, as they observed "significant corrosion" inside the chassis. That's maybe just under a third of what the machine costs retail, but there's not really another option at this point.

Then I got it back, with all of my data in place, which struck me as odd - anything of value is soldered onto the mainboard. If there were "significant corrosion", everything would have been trashed, and the repair probably would have been much more expensive. They definitely weren't going to migrate data from the old mainboard to a new one for free, as that's a whole other racket that's enabled through these monolithically architectured machines.

At the end of the day, I felt kind of ripped off and knew that if something like this were to happen again, I had no other recourse other than to give it a shot on my own. Given how clumsy I tend to be, that'll probably happen sooner rather than later, so I kind of see my machine as a liability at this point.

I think I'm going to give the Framework laptop a shot, though I'll miss MacOS.

PS: Had a really good time repairing a friend's 2012 MBP recently, though. With a replacement SSD, new battery, and another stick of ram, it feels like a capable machine without too much time or money sunk into it.
I had Apple replace the battery in my Macbook about 6 months ago and it took two days. There was a minimum 24 hour time frame for them to just diagnose that in fact, they needed to replace the battery.
Not just surpassed them, but when you compare Apples to apples, their professional hardware today is utter dogshit.

The most glaring example I can think of is that the Mac Pro isn't built seemingly for anyone. For $6000 you can build a VFX workstation with an overpriced(!) top-of-the-line threadripper and RTX 3090 and 1TB Samsung SSD which performs more than 4 times faster than their $13,000 highest-end CPU configuration. So what has ended up happening? A lot of studios are simply buying high-end PC prebuilts or the studios are building their own systems now for desktop-side compute.

For that price you get 256 GB and some AMD $150 equivalent graphics card, which is worse than what you'd get off some random laptop today.
the only app that does this well for me is Todoist, but that's for tracking todos. Works via desktop app (+ global hotkey to add a todo at any time), browser (+ extension for saving webpages), mobile app, and siri (when I'm in the car). Without all those things no app has stuck for me. Todoist works decently well for short memo-type notes (you can add comments and attach files to todos), but I'm also looking for another companion app to use for more longform / wide reaching information.
That Lisp advocates thought this difference was worth agonizing over at length seems to indicate something diagnostic.

That the two namespaces were unnecessary had been demonstrated. That should have sufficed. C also has two namespaces, one for structs and one for literally everything else, that C++ abandoned without looking back. I doubt you can find anything written that more than notes the backward-compatibility hack that made it workable.
In our case, we try to match using the XPath selectors that we have for the site. If we don't have any, or they fail to match anything for the title, author, or body, we then go to Readability and let it do its thing to try and extract whatever we're missing.
The 2015 MacBook Pro was an absolute tank for me. I recently replaced it with an M1 Air, which so far has been incredible. Dare I say the best laptop I have ever used. The keyboard is great, even better than the 2015 pro and Touch ID is great to have as well.

I think Apple has learned some lessons, they fixed the keyboards, they added a physical Touch ID button, and it seems like the divisive Touch Bar is probably going to fade away, or at least be optional.

I think OSX could use an update that focuses on power users and the finder, but other than that I am pretty happy with the current state of the Mac.
