I have the 2020 Intel one as well. I think the key travel still isn't what it was in 2015 or earlier, though. They are still too shallow for me. It's minor, but I do feel I bottom out too quickly on them. It feels like tapping on glass after a while.
I agree. I just didn't have the stats to back me up when I wrote that. You are talking about wealth and not stocks, but you make the same point that I'm trying to make, which is that, top x% can be very misleading and clickbaity if you ignore the extreme inequality at the very top and can push the narrative in a direction that's not helpful. Thank you for bringing that up. I'd not be surprised it like 100 people in the country own 20% of all the stocks.
how does this new GPU and "neural engine" perform comparing to Nvidia GPUs, and do they support Tensorflow and something similar to CUDA SDK
I really hate the feet. Just the bottom half of the form factor looks like they're going back to 2006 design.
I upgraded to Windows 11 beta. I get green Blue Screens of Death. The right click button (contextual menu) does not cover all previous functionality so it has a 'show old menu' option to bring back what is lacking. Edge and Teams are installed by default. It feels like an UI refresh and not much more.
TSA regulates the SIZE of the battery, not the charging mechanism.

"I think most would agree that there should be some fixed line to judge what goes too far and shouldn't be on their platform."

I can see the need for things like parental filters, or better user controls to be able to get recommendations for things you actually want to see.

I would also be the first person to agree that Netflix has the right to decide what content they want to distribute.

But from a customer point of view what I want from Netflix is to give give me maximum choice. Give me absolutely every kind of content imaginable, offensive or G-rated, and then give me the tools to be able to limit what my children can view and to fine tune the sorts of recommendations I get.

I'm a huge believer in "if you don't like it, watch something else" and "if someone else likes it, that's none of your business."
microSD none, but SDCard readers (the one here) are extremely useful to photographers.
Maybe, I am missing something but the price seems high.

Possibly this is reflected in my general consumer use case, but all of my high computation oriented use cases are offloaded to a desktop.

Where are you deriving the majority of the value for this offering?
Yeah this is the first time they actually compared to something with the possibly bigger performance.
I had the same thought. It looks like the 2011-2012 era chasis. Kind of funny but I imagine it’s necessary for the added ports. Probably couldn’t work with the slimmer form factor because of those, and scaling it would make it too big. Guess we can’t have our cake and eat it too.
DDG has never worked for me, and I've tried. While I've been a happy Brave Search user since day 1. I'm not joking when I say it's the best search experience after Google, by a mile.
This isn't a bad decision. They are literally adding more space on the screen that would normally be useless.
It's great Apple is changing course back to where they were in 2013. What sucks is that all those laptops built between 2013 and 2022 will be dogs on the used market.

For my money, I'm getting the Framework latop and I'm going to bite the bullet and run (in order of preference) FreeBSD, NixOS, or some Linux (Ubuntu, probably). I'm tired of Apple's shit.
Does this leap sound big enough to eat into the traditional windows pro laptop market?

ITs going to have a tough time justifying purchases.

Do these new processors mean anything for those of us who need to run x86 VMs or is Apple Silicon still a no-go?
I do wonder if there's room for going after the people submitting false claims based on their libelous written claim to Google/YouTube that you're using unlicensed music. There's clearly a money trail to follow for identification.
2 or 4 external 4K monitors, depending on whether you choose Pro or Max.

M1 Pro - 2x 6K monitors plus built-in display

M1 Max - 3x 6K display plus additional 4K display plus built-in display

External displays are 60Hz only.
MBPs are designed for macOS, if other OSes do other things with the hardware, that's on them. Why should Apple care when probably 99% of their users (if not more) are exclusively using macOS on the hardware with other OSes in VMs?
Wow, I had no idea M1 doesn't support eGPUs. I was planning on buying an external enclosure for Apple Silicon when I upgraded; thanks for pointing that out.
You’re making a pretty strong assumption that these statistics are a result of tax avoidance. I find it extremely implausible that majority of people who don’t pay income tax are doing so as a result of complex financial schemes. Taking the standard deduction or simply claiming straightforward deductions like the mortgages interest deduction is not tax avoidance when done in the spirit of the law, which, anecdotally, is the case for most middle to low income filers.

I’d need to see some proof before assuming the statistic is a matter of avoidance rather than of explicit tax policy. If you’re claiming people who are in alignment with official tax government policy (again in the spirit not just the letter of the law) are free riders, then we are back to who should assume the responsibility for paying. As stated in my previous post.
I think you need batching for the nvme doorbell alone at anything close to these kinds of rates...

For some workloads it's not that hard to have that deep queues. What's harder is to know when to use them and when not. There's really not enough information available to make any of this self-tuning.
The market also said 14 years ago that subprime mortgages were worth over $1 trillion. This year it says Bitcoins are worth $1 trillion.

There is a language of such bubbles - not, here is why it has value, like a loaf of bread or chair or bar of gold, but think about FOMO and that type of thing. There have been fly by night scams since Ponzi's postal reply coupons, or Dutch tulip bulbs and before that - I don't worry too much on missing out on the latest scam.
A few thousand dollars per year (presumably it will last more than one year) is really not much for the most important piece of equipment a knowledge worker will be using.

Opposite for me - I almost never used the SD slot, so a dongle was no problem for me, but I used HDMI all the time.
It can be configured up to 64gb with the M1 Max.
Wow I had no idea about this! Actually going to make me switch back to DDG
Most ppl use CF for toy things they don't test if their infrastructure is reachable at all times, but CF fails a lot, at least twice a day.
Apple were making direct comparisons to the GE76 Raider 11UH-053 which has a RTX 3080 in it, indicating that it had the same performance for 100W less power consumption. That seems pretty competitive to me!
The problem here is not the instantaneous and irreversible financial consequences of badly written code. That's a feature, it makes crypto work like cash, a coin is a coin and won't magically evaporate from my wallet because PayPal or Youtube doesn't like my face.

The problem is the lack of minimal KYC information and any link to real world identity. It what enables hackers to get close to 100% of the stolen sums with close to 0 risk.

Most major crypto networks are essentially giant money laundry machines: cash goes in, anonymous transactions are made over the internet, cash goes out. Of course that when you combine the two, irreversibility and anonymity, you get the giant cluster-crap of scams, embezzlement, Ponzi schemes, narcotics trafficking and cyber-blackmail that the crypto space has become.

If you want to fix crypto, the problem is not a tweak to the algorithm, it's the social rules that allow it to interface with the real world. We need to establish a minimal standard of how, when, and by whom can the real identity of a user be unblinded (think Chaum e-cash) and revealed for law enforcement - without compromising the privacy of all, like in the current banking system.
No consumer CPU comes close. Just saw an article about the next-gen Xeon's with HBM though that blows even this away (1.8TB/s theoretically), but what else would one expect from enterprise systems. Getting pretty damn excited about all the CPU manufacturers finally getting their asses into gear innovation-wise after what feels like a ridiculously long period of piss-warm "innovation".
Human History Gets a Rewrite
I think the higher memory is also a huge win, with support for up to 64gb.
I'm honestly curious how you can equitably redistribute wealth and power. Wealth and power tend to protect themselves.
Example being our current society failing to equitably tax the super rich, failing to apply justice equally to the privileged and the powerless. These trends seem to be present in every previous society I've ever heard of. The only method I've ever encountered was fictional and fanciful.

Regarding capitalism and greed.
Isn't capitalism in its simplest definition just exchanging goods and services for tokens representing value? Greed is not essential to the definition. One could sell one's goods or services for fair prices, take modest profits, pay suppliers and workers equitably. This would be defined as capitalism. No greed present. Perhaps we go wrong when we fail to create or enforce rules of fairness.
Full Screen apps do not use notch space as seen in their full screen demos
Given how much Apple charges for storage, and the fact that it is not expandable, SD card slots offer a reasonable way to get more storage. With a starting price at $2000, this may not make sense for people who don’t need a pro level machine but were looking forward to features like this
So you're calling on Netflix to "cancel" these employees because they're expressing political views you don't agree with?

And the political views you're so bothered by are... employees calling on Netflix to "cancel" someone who expressed political views they don't agree with?

How is this not just flagrant hypocrisy
Look at the list of dead languages that were once backed by vocal communities, making the frontpage of BBS forums, Usenet communities, Slashdot, Reddit, HN, and whatever will come next.

How is the Coffescript community doing by the way?
They share the core design, icestorm for efficiency cores and firestorm for performance cores, but these are recombined into entirely different systems on chip. To say the m1 max is the same as a14 is like saying a xeon is the same as an i3 because they both have skylake-derived cores.
This is not correct.

32GB on the M1 Pro and 64GB on the M1 Max in the 14".
That's the thing though, the stated goal of all this is for it to work without it being run by firms. Most of these projects are explicitly firms, or firms masquerading as not firms, or firms that have a clear goal to dissolve stewardship when these projects can run themselves, and there are a couple that aren't firms. As this process continues, there will be lots of projects running without a company of any kind. Once that happens, what are governments like that of New York going to be able to do?
I recently shelled out a €1,200 ish on a new laptop too, and it already looks archaic compared to this.

Dell XPS line up is horribly overpriced and has pretty worse performance, and the lack of Ryzen option kept me away from it.

I love my Lenovo's keyboard though.
I think he meant "hate" is too strong of a word. My impression is it just didn't serve much of a purpose for most people. I almost never use the function keys for anything but volume control anyway, and probably wouldn't have used the touch bar for anything but that either. It was just a waste. I probably wouldn't have hated it if I got one, maybe even found some nice uses for it, but I still think it was the right choice to get rid of it.
I have been waiting on this announcement to buy a new Mac, but now that they are out, I don't think I will buy one.

The prices are 2x a Macbook Air, but the utility for me doesn't match. If the 14" was closer to the previous 13" MBP price of $1500 I would be ordering one now, but I will be getting a Macbook Air instead.

Note to Veterans: Apple gives a 10% Veterans discount on everything, including the refurbished store.
Probably for the photography workflows where you grab the card out of your camera and then process and edit your RAWs.
I don't know how important this is, but I believe it does make it less readable for "outsiders".

As a non-Python programmer it is usually pretty easy for me to correctly guess what a piece of Python code does. (And once in a while I need to take a look at some Python code).

Walrus operator got me. I tried to guess what it did, but even having simple code examples I could not. My guesses were along the lines of binding versus plain assignment, or some such. None of my guesses were even close. I had to google it to find out (of course I could also read the documentation).
The ones that I'm familiar with only take and lend crypto.
What do you do if your laptop gets wet or lost? Or if someone runs it over? There’s not a ton of instances where the system won’t boot but somehow the SSD has survived.

Besides, the recent storage Apple has used is all encrypted with the keys stored in the Secure Enclave. Data cannot be recovered if you don’t have the board (even on the Mac Pro, IIRC).
And that's exactly why I put the word "almost" in the sentence!
> How's this working with regard to discoverability?

He quickly learned to use the super key or the upper left corner to go to the overview. He mainly uses the browser and the email app anyway so he does not multitask that much.

> If these are the only updates run on that computer, wouldn't that leave e.g. browsers unpatched for quite long periods of time?

Fedora has an option to auto-update apps on reboot (not sure if it is default or not). He does not reboot often, but it happens often enough that it stays reasonably up to date. The updates are seamless and not forced, so he never experience any interuptions.
Anyone else getting an old PowerBook vibe off of these?
It's a work in progress. See https://asahilinux.org/blog/ for the latest updates.
I have owned macbooks only since 2017 and found the older (2011 era) aesthetic design to be bulky and not too appealing. I own a 2020 model, which looks sharp and professional. I don't like them going back to this rounded edges on the bottom. I love everything else, except this simple gripe over aesthetics.
100% of all tax payers paid taxes.
If you don't "get it" just by looking at it, then good for you. There are no technical arguments to make me "unsee" it. It's ugly. It displeases my sense of aesthetics. It's the Hitler mustache of industrial design.
I don't think Apple has, but people might have had a fear they would do. Now by adding those additional ports it's clear what route they're going and the jack is safe. I guess that's what he meant...
In general, the people here will use the perf to run webpack faster.
Or what Google could do is auto-identify music in videos (they do this), and then set up automated monthly payments to the appropriate ASCAP or similar licensing body for statutory payments.

We already have statutory public performance prices. And we started to adhere to them, the creators could get their money, and the creators could further create content. (You know, like a content Ponzi scheme.)
I was falling in love for this new macBook until I saw the notch. They had to add a notch to the screen. Why?!
I'm afraid other manufacturers are going to copy it.
Well, there is an SD slot so if you're really concerned about being able to back up your work at all times if you're not network connected, you can periodically copy to that. If your laptop dies, there's no guarantee your SSD drive won't be the cause of the failure and/or can fail based on the same external event--e.g. spilling something.
I'd much rather them make it a little thicker and have better cooling and features.
I assume "vmception" requires a lot of power...

As a point of comparison, look at https://fundthatflip.com/ (real estate lending) and then compare them to most of the crypto platforms. It's not the crypto that is the problem, it is the populist "robinhood" rhetoric that gets crypto into trouble. https://fundthatflip.com/ only works with investors who meet the SEC definition of an accredited investor (something like $2 million in assets not counting the value of one's primary residence). In the whole of the USA, there are only 80,000 accredited investors. The SEC is fine with those people taking on risky investments.

If the crypto companies focused their efforts on accredited investors there would be less of a panic about crypto. But most of them come in with a populist rhetoric that sounds like a political movement: they want to bring high growth, high risk investing to the masses, they want to offer something highly speculative to the average person. In other words, they want to try to make an end run around the thousands of laws that we have in place to make sure that the average citizen doesn't get bilked in some scam.

It's the pseudo-political element that is getting crypto into trouble. If they simply said "This is highly speculative and only accredited investors should look at this opportunity" then the crypto companies would be on safer legal ground. But it would be difficult to pump up the price of these cryptocurrencies if the bulk of crypto enthusiasts were taking such a moderate line.
Really? The M1 is a bit slower than a 1650, so 4x that performance gets you solidly into 3000 series range. There might be a handful of PC laptops that can outpace the M1 Max, but none in remotely comparable a package.
It's more amusing than anything. I'll take the correct product decisions over pitch-perfect PR any day.
Not to disagree, but what gave you that impression?
In the "real world", the recourse you have against e.g. pickpocketing is similarly non-existent (in theory, you have recourse in both the pickpocket and the crypto theft case, in practice, you're getting recourse in neither).

I'd argue that getting a software-only hotwallet stolen is comparable to getting pickpocketed or robbed of the cash you carry on you.

The crypto world is special because this often involves much bigger amounts than people usually carry around in cash, and most importantly, people negligently leave huge amounts laying around with minimal security, often because a) it wasn't worth anything when they put it in the wallet but appreciated rapidly, or b) because it's a lot of money, but it's not a lot of money for them because they are now multi-millionaires.

With a hardware wallet, it's much harder (not impossible) to make a mistake or get compromised.
The lag truly makes it unusable. Trying to mute? Hit the mute button. Did it register and is just laggy? Or just missed the tap altogether? Why have an always-on touchbar that doesn't even respond to taps consistently.
> UHD/4k/Retina are all a huge improvement just when looking at text and it’s hard to go back.

I disagree. 4K is great on a big screen TV. But on a 15" (or smaller!) it just isn't worth it. I literally can't see a difference between 1080p and 4K on a 15 inch screen.
in the short term, unlikely. If they can't manage to keep their systems running for a few hours during off peak hours, then they have bigger problems.
SiliFuzz: Fuzzing CPUs by Proxy [pdf]
Oh wow, it certainly doesn't look that way but the new ones actually are thinner. That's interesting.
I use it for everything, and I have no idea if it's as good as Google or not because I've never needed to find out - that's good enough for me.
This is possible with statically typed languages with Haskell being one of the examples where it's encouraged to use the REPL to work towards a solution and/or qucikly test ideas without having to write unit tests or full program tests. Ocaml and friends fall within this category too and none require extensive type annotation due to type inference.

I feel that too much focus is on static languages like C/C++ where types become a chore and judging it on that rather than looking at the plenty of languages with type inference brought by ML-style languages.
>From now on I will stay 100% with Vimeo but, as we know, they have a fraction of the viewership of You Tube – primarily because so few people know they even exist.

Websurfer awareness is not the primary reason Vimeo has less viewership.

The cause & effect before the buildup of awareness is the incentives that prevent content creators to upload videos to Vimeo in the first place:

- platform membership fees: Youtube is $0 to upload and host, Vimeo used to be $240 and now has some new pricing plans[1] with a low-use free tier (too limited for high-res 4k uploads)

- no advertising partners : Youtube enables monetization without content creators asking audiences to pay for subscriptions. This financial model covers a wide variety of videos especially for unknown creators.

The financial model of Vimeo is fine but its inherent costs will keep it smaller than Youtube because both the uploaders and the viewers don't want to pay.

That said, Seattle is actually quite small in comparison to the Seattle metropolitan area, because Seattle is surrounded by lots of satellite cities: Kenmore, Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland (yes, the Costco Kirkland), Everett, Tacoma, etc. So if you're more conservative and want a city government that is also more conservative, you can live in Bellevue or Redmond (and for some reason still reply to every thread online about Seattle politics complaining about it like it affects you.)
If I could get my current M1 mini with the 64GB chip, it would be absolutely perfect.
That's a great point. I've edited to re-word that reference, because obviously these roles still flourish today.
Yeah, some of the configs are already estimating December ship dates, and that's like 20 minutes after the store opened. They are not going to be able make enough Pro chips
I wish we could get a Macbook Air in these screen sizes. I don't need the extra power, just the bigger screen.
It doesn't look like these Airpods have noise cancelling. The compedition like the Samsung Buds2 have about 7.5 hours on a single charge with noise cancelling turned off and 5 hours when turned on.
Did you check what they were saying about the M1 Max? It is comparable to the fastest GPU in a notebook they could find while using 100w less energy. We have to wait for the reviews next week what it actually means though.
I suspect what the OP is reacting to is not revisiting a design decision but the presentation of it.
It definitely hits compute time and that also hits battery life. More pixels = more compute required even outside of the GPU.
Even when mobility just means from the office to the kitchen to the couch, that's a pretty big benefit.
The Future of Comedy [video] – Side Gig I Produced Because of CancelChappelle
Gotta be just a matter of time.
I feel like I’m alone with this opinion, but: I can’t buy one of these, as much as I’d like to. I still have to use windows half of the time because of software that’s missing on MacOS. So either I get to buy and maintain 2 laptops or settle for one and I think pragmatic wins over shiny, so I’ll get a boring old windows machine.
Or I could just remove the SSD and not have that tradeoff.
They really should market this more, its one of the best features.
Of course, when the tool is actually a library for a particular programming language, considerations of build environment and package manager are more germane. But you still might question if it is worth it.
