I don't know. I'm practically a Luddite when it comes to social networks, and I've started consuming tiktok content quite a bit lately.

I think the best way to describe it is in relation to twitter, which I use heavy for 2-3 days in a row once every few months. Twitter exposes my to lots of interesting things, but ultimately is depressing because of how everyone is so shrill and unwilling to give the benefit of a doubt, and interactions feel hollow.

Tiktok is just pure entertainment, and rarely do I not come way in a better mood. It's like they took r/videos and r/gifs and distilled them into their core components and deliver them through a fire hose.

Will they be gone in a few years? Maybe, but I doubt it. Whatever they're doing it's working and makes me feel better and happier when I use it, so that's a win.
"What does a scanner see? he asked himself. I mean, really see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does a passive infrared scanner like they used to use or a cube-type holo-scanner like they use these days, the latest thing, see into me - into us - clearly or darkly? I hope it does, he thought, see clearly, because I can't any longer these days see into myself. I see only murk. Murk outside; murk inside. I hope, for everyone's sake, the scanners do better. Because, he thought, if the scanner sees only darkly, the way I myself do, then we are cursed, cursed again and like we have been continually, and we'll wind up dead this way, knowing very little and getting that little fragment wrong too."
> Anyone who put $200+ into that Kickstarter deserved some sort of payout

I agree but you'll have to blame the SEC for that. I'm sure Oculus and Kickstarter would have loved to sell equity to the public, and if they did then every backer would have made thousands of dollars on the deal. But the SEC's rules didn't allow equity crowdfunding at the time and they still impose limits that make it basically infeasible.
There's actually a doormat you can order, which I saw hanging on the wall in Google Legal (I'm not saying that was an official statement by anyone):

Come back with a warrant

I'd get one, but I'm afraid someone would steal it.
I don't know where you're coming from. It's not about pixel-perfect madness that I can see? It's about drawing a box? Wanting to draw a neat box around text is a reasonable thing to want to do. Know how fonts behave and being able make websites look how you want is a legit part of a designer's toolkit, I'd say. Is your problem that the designer didn't add an extra layer of pixel->some-other-unit conversion on top of everything else? (But in browser pixels are also abstract entities ('logical pixels') not related to screen pixels anymore for the most part, which are deeply hidden away and basically inaccessible last time I checked (3 or so months ago)).

But for instance, towards the end the writer says: 'The next time somebody complains about paragraphs having inconsistent spacing when the font changes, I’ll know why and how to fix it.'. So, it looks like they care about h

[ I can't check out his example on my current device, so I don't know if it's scale/custom-css compatible or not. ]
> I'm a 20 y/o bootcamp grad with no college degree and 6 months of professional experience. I've been out of employment since May this year, and since mid-September I've been applying for software engineering positions across the US. Also I'm from Europe and I'm currently living in SF on a tourist visa, meaning I would need sponsorship for an H-1b work visa.

Hold on.

What were you doing before getting laid off? Were you working in the US? How?
Ah fair enough - we are also releasing our case's 3D files so you can easily print your own. I don't believe it's mentioned anywhere, but we're also planning on selling the cases on their own.
Reboot for an upgrade happens by holding a spin lock until it overheats and reboots. This happens every time on multiple computers so I think it's intentional(?) but the crash reports are pretty wild.

No official package manager.

The Macbook cases ground through the user when they're on an insulated surface (there is no ground pin on the Macbook power adapters).

Audio crackles when the machine grounds through the user. Makes speakers hum.

I guess some of these are hardware issues.
Maybe.

Thought experiment: replace ‘ephemeral’ silicon based technology with what we know of biology, which at the small scale is far more advanced than anything humans have created.

The fact that bio is so information theory intelligible only increases its ability to ‘blend into the background’ and ‘become ephemeral’.

(E.g. your body is constantly creating and destroying iron nanocrystals in protein cages we can’t synthesize to regulate the amount of iron ions involved in constructing a proton potential to move muscles.)
If this is the biggest thing holding their operating system back, Apple must be doing okay.
One thing worth noting is that Misskey blocking is currently broken/doesn't function like Mastodon or Twitter. I've seen a lot of fediverse users complaining about getting notifications and replies from users they've blocked, so hopefully that gets addressed.
For those who are wondering what the config setting is:

Finder -> Preferences -> Advanced -> When performing search: Search the current folder
Or, realizing that everyone else is a p-zombie (except for you :))…
It's a basic Apache/PHP/PostgreSQL setup. This is a private project that I am working on to collect information on and plan recreation programs. The scope is sufficiently narrow that I don't see much of a need to expand beyond that setup.
I use full screen when I am working just in the MacBook and no other screens attached. It’s simpler to swipe between desktops. It’s annoying when I use my external monitors.

> I fail to find that anywhere in the specs. It says 8 SATA3 slots and 2 PCIe 4 slots. It is not clear if you can boot/configure them from the BIOS.

* Supports NVMe SSD as boot disks

Look under the Specs tab. You can also see them in the pictures.

> No. The grip and precision are night and day. Even more so for mouses that I can't move back to normal ones (I had the G900 and now have the razer viper ultimate; this thing made the carpal tunnel syndrome a thing of the past and I use the mouse for 10+ hours per day).

So that's completely reasonable, but now you're adding whatever that costs to the price of the Mac too.
This is not targeting people who go to a spreadsheet software first; this is targeting people who need some quick calculation and can use the power of spreadsheet software. Maybe it's a quick forecast of an investment/loan over a few years, maybe it's a list of friends who owe you money for your group trip, maybe it's just the waiter who runs the payments for a 10-person table who all pay differently and they want to note who paid how much and what is left on the total bill. This is just like opening Notepad++ for copy-pasting something quickly instead of opening Word.

I can see a lot of uses for that kind of "quick spreadsheeting" that don't require you to fire a full-blown editor.
I don't know exactly what I mean. I just read 1m^3 somewhere.
I also funded the Kickstarter and received a DK1 (and DK2). I believe I was fairly compensated, and that demanding some unspecified extra payout would be excessive. If you want stock, buy stock, and deal with the added risk that true investment entails.
Telcos rarely do end-to-ends, usually they handle signaling out of band, strip headers, decipher payload and re-cipher with new session information each time your data switches medium. In-band signaling with E2E and recursive encapsulations like TLS over TCP over IP are very Internet/IP pattern.
Microsoft Word does have compose, sort of(?). control+apostrophe followed by e results in é, for instance. I have no idea why it isn’t OS wide. It works some other places, but not all.
There is a lack of control groups with these kind of internal studies although, they were not built for general public consumption in mind. What would happen in a world without facebook, but still the general internet & smartphones, where kids will IM each other with private cameras and look at things their social groups make without real supervision, not to mention the wild west that is the general internet?

How much is the issue "the internet", "magazines", "0 cost private photography", "economic decline" and "cultural changes"? I remember in the 90s and 2000s all the issues created with girl's body image and cosmo magazine for example. How much of this is the paper manufacturers (FB), and what is written on the piece of paper (Users of FB ads) and so on?

And part of fixing a problem that you have now is figuring out what that problem is. If we slap people and organizations from admitting a problem and trying to fix it, they will just ignore it. The fact they are making such studies is a good thing.

A lot of this attention on FB and so on is also political power annoyed that a large new media platform upset the political election balance in the USA. If social media didn't have party political effects in the USA, we all know most of this attention wouldn't be happening, and negative effects on groups will continue unabated. So it makes people not trust many of the anti-FBers rethortic, because we don't trust the person's intentions. Do you actually "think of the children" or is this for tribal political reasons?
Yeah I'd pay for a full resolution version so I can get this printed across my entire wall. Despite the "high" resolution of many of the pictures on the page, not a single one is high enough resolution to print much larger than A3 or so while still seeing the stars/details.
War with whom?

The government? Tech companies? ISPs?

All are in some ways restricting certain freedoms, while enabling others.

And what freedoms are you afraid of being taken that have not already been taken in some form?

I'm absolutely not disagreeing with you. I support full and absolute internet freedom. I have the ability to put absolutely anything I want on the internet with zero restrictions, but depending on what it is and how I put it there, there are many ways it may then cause me to lose freedom in some way.

Which one should lead to war?
> Is there any application forced sandboxing feature yet?

Yes it's been there for a while. But like flatpak and all other attempts to sandbox applications they tend to ask for coarse permissions like Home Directory and once you give that, it can read everything important.
Is it possible to add entitlements to an already compiled app dowloaded from a random place? A mac app installer could run any scripts, so we need to sandbox the installer, if it's possible.
They are grounded if you use the "power adapter extension cable" (not shipped with the unit): https://www.apple.com/ca/shop/product/MK122LL/A/power-adapte...
The alternative is the way that software was successfully developed and delivered for the decades prior to the existence of the Agile manifesto, and the software that was successfully developed and delivered in the time between when the manifesto was written and when it start infecting the software development industry. In other words, just look at literally any other software product created and delivered before 2001, and up until about 2008 or so.
Why not? Why do you need bloated, mobile unfriendly spreadsheet software to quickly take down some numbers in a tabular form? For e.g, If I'm around the house and want to record a few tape measure readings with my phone like a digital scrapbook, I can use this. I like the tabular format and ease of use.

If I need to jot down a quick note, I wouldn't use a word processor with all the inane amount of options. I would use a simple note app because all those word processing options serve no purpose and makes the simple task I'm trying to complete harder then it needs to be. Simplicity is a very convenient feature.
Thanks for doing this! Just donated 100GBP (no idea why that was the default but it is what it is lmao)
I honestly don't understand this. One commenter asserts that it shouldn't be called "insurrection", because the charges are not serious enough. When presented with evidence that there are more serious charges, you claim that it's done to force a plea deal.

When people gather outside the Capitol, shouting that they have to stop the Congress from enacting the will of the people -- and construct gallows while they're at it -- that's not attempted insurrection, that's free speech. When they force their way into the Capitol, that's not attempted insurrection, that's trespassing. When they fail to obey the commands of the LEOs charged with protecting the Capitol and the people working inside, when they beat up some of those LEOs, that's not attempted insurrection, either.

To me, it sounds like the goalposts keep moving. At what point do you call it attempted insurrection?
Thus far there isn’t really a no-nonsense EV with limited tech and phsyical buttons for everything. Once you go the big center screen route you are kind of locking yourself into an infotainment computer that will be obsolete long before the cars powertrain is and an interface that will change over time like a modern smartphone.

Once you know those truths, Tesla isn’t a bad choice as their computers are at least partially upgradeable and the interface changes have been decent from my perspective (although this is hugely subjective).
Ironicly government is what cases your health insurance to rise due to obese people. Government prevents companies for charging more based on health conditions, except smoking. So a company is prohibited by law from taking obesity into account for premium costs

Further I take it then you do support the concept of Limited Government?

If this is your metric for what should involve government, then my guess you do not support the idea of Limited Government at all. See when I talk about threats to other, I am talking about direct, articulable threats, not second or third order events that may have an impact under some circumstances

When I say the government has an ethical mandate to protect me from others, I mean protect me from physically assaulting me, from stealing my property, etc.

Not generalized adverse effects that may happen latter down the road if enough other people also happen to do the same thing.
The images weren't loading on the dell site but I googled images. I don't see a lot of wasted space on the left and right. Looks like about 4mm of bezel at a guess. I wouldn't complain about that. Also it's more than $1k cheaper than the Apple, isn't it? Very nice that it's available with an OLED screen as well. OLED > size to me.

I wouldn't buy Apple anyway, but before you ask why I care, it's because their idiotic trends tend to trickle into other brands.

I won't buy a phone without a headphone socket, and I won't be buying a laptop with a chunk out of the screen either.

Pretty sure this is illegal.

It's UCS-2, unfortunately, which means that unpaired surrogates are allowed.
dotnet and vs have been around a lot longer than azure. I'm not sure what point you're trying to make here.
So how is this different to existing cloud solutions like Dropbox, Google Drive or iCloud?
Amazing, it works on the linked article too of course, by clicking on "Clicking" and skipping meta-content such as pronunciation and various article banners.
FWIW I think all ISPs that employ CGNAT are required by law to retain “NAT binding records” that are essentially this.
Is a Mammilaria. One of the most easily recognizable and common genus of Cacti in homes by having the spines at the top of small bumps (Like in a passive heatsink).

You can expect a round and small plant with an unique head or a lot of little ones. With small spines (some straight and other shaped as a treacherous hook but relatively weak) and a ring of small flowers yellow whitish or purple close to the top, but not in the center of the plant. Followed by elongated red fruits like minute peppers.

I assume that not having photos is on purpose to avoid wannabee thieves searching for the plant in nature and stealing it.
Much in the same vein, but less of a toy, Tinymonth [0] has binary calendars - you just click on a day to toggle if it's part of an event or not. No .ics export that would really make it perfect, but it still seems extremely convenient in certain use cases.

Oh, and also from Postlight's labs, Textmoji [1] is a cute generator of custom emojis for Slack or Discord or whatnot.

See above; I sympathise completely, was not happy with how my camera was positioned before.
It's not perfect, but nonetheless a huge improvement.
But, it wasn't built to scale like WhatsApp.
No idea if this is a hardware issue, but this approach (underclocking and permanent low power modes) is historically how Apple have "fixed" other hardware flaws - cough - nvidia - cough - After you've experienced it you tend to not buy macs any more.
Anyone with a moderately sized music collection depended entirely on iTunes to manage their library, and were hence locked in to the iPod/iTunes eco-system. There was no reasonable alternative.

Manually copying mp3 files to a Nokia or Blackberry just didn't come close to cutting it, and any attempts by those companies to compete with iTunes on the desktop ended in miserable failure due to piss-poor software quality.

You can have my thoughtfully organized directories of hundreds of files made by multiple programs that have no idea they’re all part of a single project when you can pry them from my cold dead hands.
I get your point, but it does appeal to me. There are times I wish my Keep list had a totals function. I'll probably try this next time I need to share something on Keep that needs a calculation or an itemized quote.
This is stunning work. Bravo! I feel so small and insignificant right now. And that's not a bad thing.
But they can support like two features for every single power user: hotkeys for managing windows and snapping to windows when you push it against the border.
Pack it up boys, we were wrong. Photographs, cryptographic verified messages, not a single denial from Dems, and a mass censorship campaign. But this guy forget he wasn't still on Twitter and posted caps with periods (you forgot the clapping emoji though).
Good executives do do this, Ben Horowitz addresses it explicitly in The Hard Thing About Hard Things, but I've also seen it personally from good executives I've worked for.

It's bad ones that think they can spin something negative into something positive. All it does is break trust and employees just think they're full of shit.

The urge to spin things positively is the common default though for new execs for some reason, telling the truth about bad news when it's hard to do so is part of what makes someone good.
You need to join a consultancy and get placed in an employer where you can leverage your skills to turn that into full time and get your green card. It’s what I did when I was a dev — talk to your Chinese or Indian friends about it.
Would be awesome if every Apple product I ever purchased had been treated as an investment.

The 2000 dual-CPU Power Mac G4 would be worth a million now.
Might be even less.

If they added it to the ground it cheaper to install and then kids could run on it in the gym (could easily cover an entire Gym, lol):

Would be fun with the retroreflectors added like in the latter video, as with the lights off and only head lamps on you could see stars below your feet.
It doesn't seem so to me - BYD is selling batteries much cheaper than Tesla can make them themselves. In this case it's not just supply, it's cost too.
No, still no user-facing method for that. There have also been no apparent improvements to the Catalina permission dialogues (for Documents, Desktop, Downloads), but keep watching https://eclecticlight.co/ over the next few weeks, if there have been any improvements he'll probably talk about it.
We're a no-code platform for testing, if that counts. :) Should work pretty well for testing applications built with no-code tools since the same person who builds the app can also write tests for it.

Not to mention Ben Krasnow's comment about the hardware culture at Valve probably meant a lot of talented hardware people wouldn't be interested working somewhere where their accomplishments are seen as worthless. Not having good talent and good culture are not good for developing good hardware.

... that you host it?

That's like asking how cooking is different from eating out. You do it yourself, you customize all the things, you're independent, it can be cheaper than managed services if you discount your time or even scale it only a little bit, and many people simply enjoy it.

And if something goes wrong, you know who's at fault, who's on call, and who's gonna fix it :D (I host my own mail server among other thing, and it's mostly unattended but still I felt I should nuance the comment a little bit.)
If the drunk person is visible you shouldn’t pass them at speed. It’s always your responsibility to drive safely and that includes driving at speeds that allow you to avoid running over a not overly committed suicidal pedestrian.

The speed limit on my steer is 20kph and jaywalking laws don’t seem to exist - if you see a pedestrian about to cross the street, you stop.
Comparing the two is a stretch...
Sure, so in that case they aren't trying to vertically integrate, unless they are currently scaling up production faster than anyone else and they're not.
This tax would apply only to billionaires or people with $100m+ reported income for three years in a row -- the wealthiest who frankly haven't been paying their fair share of taxes for a while now, because they're wealthy enough to find ways around it.
