> new legislation that only allows section 230 protection if platforms implement a ton of moderation

The proposals I've seen also tie it to algorithmic content curation. The idea is that if a human is choosing what to put in front of my face (e.g. a newspaper editor), or an algorithm designed by a human (e.g. Facebook), then they should bear some responsibility for that content. If the New York Times publishes something illegal, they can be sued. If someone on Facebook posts something illegal, and Facebook chooses to amplify that content (via algorithm or otherwise), and Facebook hasn't made a good faith effort to moderate it, Facebook should probably be able to be sued as well.

Presumably, chronologically ordered content would be exempt from these new moderation guidelines, which gives the smaller platforms some space to play in. Personally, I'd love if our social media brought back dumb sorting and filtering: algorithmic recommendations are a new hell.
You’re missing the point, it’s an ecosystem question.

Server Core or Hyper-V Server still contains quite some GUI dependencies. Things like task manager, Notepad (different between versions), and a basic file picker for applications. A floating console window appears and even wallpapers applied via SysInternals are supported.

A good thing too, because the driver installation tools from Dell for instance depend on these.
My experience with a team from India who liked to watch cricket was completely positive. They got their work done. And watched cricket. They were completely responsive to me when needed, and would watch cricket when the work wasn't urgent.

I don't think that is any different than any other remote worker. You both work at home and live your life. As long as the work gets done, who cares how the rest of their time is spent, or even when they do it?

Heathkit was kind of shitty at designing computers. I grew up on an H89, a contemporary of the Apple ][, but without sound, color, or a memory-mapped character generator, and vastly slower in software. It actually had a 9600-baud serial link between the computer and the screen, which was run by a separate CPU you couldn't reprogram without an EPROM burner. Heathkit's HDOS (on the H89, no idea about the H-11) was a clone of RT-11, not Unix. It wasn't a bad clone but it lacked Unix's power and generality.
> I suspect that Jony Ives’ departure may have facilitated this.

I'm sure that is a very accurate statement. I thoroughly enjoy the improvements to the keyboard and adding back in the new ports. But I wonder what the future of the MacBook will be without the visionary design from Ives? Are we going to see a melding of PC and Macs or will Apple keep design innovation at the forefront?

USB PD 3.0 can do up to 100 W, USB PD 3.1 can do up to 240 W.

Guessing they can only do 3.0 on the data ports for now and the MagSafe connector is just USB PD 3.1 implementation without any possibility for data.
Because the 140W charging adapter supports USB-C EPR (extended power range) [0], which allows compatible USB-C chargers, cables, and devices to work at up to 240W. (Obviously Apple's 140W charger only supports up to 140W.) However, the spec is so new that there's currently no USB-C to USB-C cable that supports 140W. I don't think we know yet if the MacBooks can charge at 140W with an EPR USB-C cable, not least because nobody is selling that cable yet. But I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't work because that'd require all three USB-C ports to support it.)

The MagSafe 3 cable goes from 140W USB-C to MagSafe, but the USB-C charger is 100% standards-compliant USB-C EPR.

Setting Up macOS for Development
All rental car agencies suck. So do all delivery services, airlines, cell phone carriers, and cable companies. Pick any company operating in these spaces and you’ll get stories of how they are the literally the worst company on the planet.

That being said I’ve never had a bad experience with national or enterprise. I dunno why other companies haven’t copied the Emerald Isle concept yet. It makes so much sense. The customer gets to feel like they had control over the car they picked, the time spent in line is non existent, etc. Its a win all around.

Also life pro tip: unless your employer can do better, always use Costco Travel for rental cars (and hotels for that matter). They always include multiple drivers, and have very competitive pricing… sometimes lower than what I can get using my employer’s corporate rate. The Costco membership almost always pays for itself just by renting a car for the week.

All of your post is one long strawman. I could copy your structure by replacing "bad code" with "no business utility" but I don't see the point, as it would be a strawman too.

> Right, then let's create spaghetti code where everything is coupled together so that no other developer can understand each other's code, with comments in Klingon.

I reject the idea that you need to split your code into services as soon as multiple developers are working on it. I also reject the idea that everyone needs well-encapsulated piece of code to be able to work, with careful comments explaining everything and a great documentation. That's the ideal case, but life is not always ideal. Some code that you will have to work with is not perfect, and you have to understand it and modify it. Deal with it, that's your job. Sometimes the business needs one small feature delivered in a few days, not a month-long refactor to make "clean code".
I've seen plenty of projects that use MoltenVK as a drop-in backend for macOS. It seems complete enough for general use, but I haven't used it directly so I'm not sure what's missing.
I +1 MobX wherever I see it mentioned, but I have to disagree here:

> having logic and state in the view layer leads to spaghetti code

Sometimes it makes sense to put logic and state in your view components, and the wonderful thing about MobX is that it doesn't care. It lets you freely move your state around to wherever you want it to live: inside components, outside components, in a module-scoped object, in a global store, all of the above. It's just JavaScript objects.

For those fighting with hooks: one of the best things about MobX is that it does all dependency-tracking (for effects, but also for components) automatically and flawlessly. An entire problem-space that's usually easy to mess up just vanishes in front of your eyes. Going back to anything else feels like going back to the dark ages.

> And the relevant object is the neurone, not the perception.

The argument given in the article is very much that you would perceive an interruption if your neurons were momentarily doing something else, but you don't, so they don't ("A -> B, not B, therefore not A"). I'm contesting this implication. You merely presented statements equivalent to "neurons don't do that" ("not A"), which misses the point.

Or, phrased another way:

How do you know that "[neurons] don't just stop being causally activate"?

It is not inherently implausible that, at any given time, some neurons in our brain are "on backpropagation maintenance", so to speak. ANNs can be trained just fine with dropout after all (and for ANNs, we intentionally add dropout because it's beneficial!). I have no evidence for this claim (and I don't believe it to be true in the slightest), but "you'd notice a momentary loss of perception" is simply not an argument against it.
Microsoft .NET Devs Anonymously Responds to Microsoft .NET Leadership
I am not dismissing you just pointing out that while your preferences are reasonable, legitimate, and are shared by many, they are also far from universal. I'm a developer, not a diplomat or a marketing person, and if different people ask for opposite things, I don't know how I can say yes to both.

I think that being honest about our strategy that dates back to Java's inception -- an innovative runtime and a conservative, slow-changing language -- that has worked well for us and so we're sticking to is more respectful than giving you some non-committal marketing response. I think you should also be respectful and understand that the Java language team is one of the most successful and experienced language design teams in the world and know what they're doing, even when people might disagree with some decisions. Even experts disagree, and people have different tastes (I find C# and contemporary Kotlin positively garish, while I think Clojure and Zig are elegant and beautiful).

And the language features Java does intend to adopt will come quickly, just as the smallish-medium ones over the last few years have. I believe lambdas were the only language feature that took more than a couple of years to deliver. Once the language team decide they want a feature, they deliver quite quickly. The features that take a long time are usually changes to the runtime (what I mostly work on), not just the language.

My sister decided about a year ago to lose some weight and focus on herself for a change. Nothing wrong with that, everyone should have the time to do the things that make them feel good.

She now spends every day at 40 posting selfies to facebook along with a bunch of motivational memes. She was not happy with me when I pointed out to her that the filter she was using made her look younger, but it also made her look like she was going bald in the front. It was eliminating some crow's feet and bringing out her eyes, but also washing out her hairline.

> The third one I tried had a fault where it would spontaneously shut down if I had any USB devices plugged into it for any reason at all (in this case it was a mouse and a flash drive).

I have a power supply that is so weak that Pi would reboot when I plug a USB keyboard in it. Solution: never use weak power supplies on Pi's.

> I have never seen the micro HDMI port on anything made before 2013 so the adapters required to make it work with modern TVs may as well be proprietary ones sold by RPi.

Pi Zero uses mini HDMI due to size constraints. Pi 4 has 2 HDMI outputs! Instead of adapters, I always prefer "right" cables. More expensive but convenient. E.g. https://www.amazon.de/Snowkids-zukunftssicheres-TV-Kabel-unt.... Also, ironically, my 2012/2013 ASUS Zenbook has a microHDMI port.

> The fourth one I owned had the same problem, and the way I fixed it was desoldering its onboard wifi receiver running it at an absurd underclock and overvolting the USB2 input with my bench power supply.

Have you tried 2-3A power supplies? E.g. https://www.amazon.de/Anker-PowerPort-Wandladeger%C3%A4t-kom.... Though I found the "official" supply cheaper and went with it.

> One of the issues that comes to mind is that the RPi 3 had a problem where it would spontaneously shut down if the lights in the room flickered wrong.

Most likely your power adaptor would not be able to maintain stable voltage when your lights flickered.

Anyway, have been running 3B+, a few Pi0s for a few years and this is the first time I read about so many problems with Pi's falling on one head. To keep my SD cards alive longer, I use DietPi and had only one SD card die on me over ca. 10 pi-years of uptime.

> more well-behaved SBCs

I am all ears!
It is about power consumption.

They could, if they wanted, automatically opt existing applications to use 120 Hz refresh. But the power usage would be terrible, and it would be up to application authors to manually go in and tune it down (which many would not do, or would take too long).

So instead they keep them at the current refresh, and have them "opt-in" to higher. Which I'm imagining Apple is hoping application developers will do responsibly and only ask for 120 Hz when it is beneficial (although big YMMV).
Again, for the millionth time, the issue is not that they had to comply with the law. Stop pretending to misunderstand, all this bullshit is quite obvious.

Proton mail lied, and then pretended like they didn’t. They decided it makes sense to sacrifice a customer on the account of their own fuck up and false promise.

Proton mail is a shit company, and more and more I’m convinced they’ve bought shills to go out and divert attention.

In the world of security, proton mail is a less than a zero. Their main clientele will be in the same scam business they are.
Ah, but there are clones, and there are clones. Of course, many Soviet designs were literal copies of Western designs. This included many of the mainframes and minis copied from the IBM 360 or PDP-11 family. The USSR produced TTL integrated circuits in number from about 1970 on and they just used them to copy Western designs built the same way. Sometimes loosely, sometimes exact copies of the schematics just scaled around the metric inch (1 inch = 2.5 mm) the Soviets preferred. When VLSI came along they also copied those designs at the mask level.

But that wasn't always the case. And the K1801VM1 and family is one of the exceptions. It's a clone of the PDP-11 which was popular in the USSR and they had software that ran on it. It has the same instruction set and a Q-Bus-like interface like a PDP-11 -- but it was an original design throughout electronically and not some mask ripoff of DEC. Originally designed as a microcontroller unlike anything DEC ever used the PDP-11 architecture for. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1801_series_CPU
I ordered mine on release day and am eagerly awaiting its delivery.

Glad to hear that about the notch. I couldn't for the life of me think why it mattered. When the presentation showed it, I looked at the very display of the Mac laptop I was watching it on and sure enough, there was a gap in the menu bar where the notch would be, with the menu items on the left and the clock and all those little widget icons on the right. I was streaming it on my personal 2013 MacBook air (which is a great little machine but ready for an upgrade), and then glanced at my work Macbook Pro and its external display. On both those, there was also empty space where the notch would be. I thought, wow, what a great idea.

But then I saw all these comments about how it was horrible and a deal breaker, and some designer pompously talking about how when you're like him and pay close attention to detail it will be distracting, I thought either everyone had lost their collective mind, or I was missing something. I realize there are some apps with a lot of menu items which might have to oddly flow to the other side, but I don't think that's super common, and I guess I'll just have to see how it feels in the end. But glad that this reviewer isn't bothered by it.
Point taken, although there definitely are third parties who skim off the top (transaction fees).
I don’t notice many performance differences comparing GUI apps. Discord’s PTB is M1 optimized and, guess what: It’s just as shit.
I imagine a vendor will be able to choose if they want to be paid in a given crypto asset or USD. If they choose USD and you purchase something from them in the crypto of your choice, Bakkt will exchange it using the exchange rate at the time of purchase. Crypto stablecoins (USDC, DAI, UST, etc.) are the easier to wrap your head around. They are pegged to the USD.

In the future non-USD denominated algorithmic stablecoins will become more important, such as RAI, FAI, etc. This will still take some time for mainstream services like MC and Visa to embrace.

Personally, I have been using a crypto Visa card for some time (Monolith) which is basically a debit card where you top up your card with the crypto of your choice (for me usually USDC or ETH) and and then use it like any other debit card. It's a pretty basic form of adoption since the vendor has no idea that you're using crypto.
Full version of MS SQL Server doesn't work.

while i think ive should get a lot of criticism for "form over function", he helped push the barriers of what is possible and in a way pushed the industry forward as well.

i think without steve to temper that it ran over a bit. you want someone to push the boundaries then someone to rein it in a bit vs the other way around.

IMO, this is probably going to be a very special time for the macs as we see the pendulum swinging back and getting all the "function" we missed. i fear tho in a generation or two it will be too "function over form" and we get an apple basically producing bricks again lol. u can already see it with the iphones.

sure... increase the thickness this year, but what prevents you from taking that thought further. compromise a little here or there, whatever. this is where someone with an obsession to say, thinness/lightness, helps. this is to say nothing about the hardware. they are far ahead there.
Neo-Amish Drop Outs (2008)
I have RPi's with wireguard all over my house hooked to various devices (cameras, boiler, lawn watering system, pool filtration, temp/hygro sensors, centralized home automation hub, home assistant, etc...).

Can connect to them from anywhere in the world to check what's going on with my house and in some cases act on it.

They also gather every possible piece of data they can get their hands on and log that to a centralized, off-site InfluxDB instance so I can ramp up a grafana instance and check what's been happening in the last <time period>.

Convergence of a few things that happened relatively recently to make this possible / easy:

1. Wireguard: all my computers and it thins are on the same virtual LAN

2. Pi 4 has a *way* better Wifi antenna and can sit quite far from the Wifi router and still be very useful.

3. Grafana

4. InfluxDB

If you build a new house with solar integrated, the person who buys the house (and society generally) benefits over time, but they need to pay up front for the costs. If you add it, then people will buy the other "cheaper" house that will cost them more in the long term and you'll go out of business. This is called a "Race to the bottom".

Pretty much every nation has a whole bunch of regulations about what you can build and sell, and what kind of houses is a popular specific example everyone is familiar with, not because they're all secret authoritarians, but because in the past, people did a whole bunch of stupid, short-sighted things to hit a lower price point and the businesses that didn't do stupid, short sighted things couldn't compete with them and were forced into doing stuff they knew was stupid or dangerous and people ended up living in dangerous, hard to heat homes.

This is the core problem of climate change. We'd all be better off dealing with it, but if someone else goes for the short term profit they ruin it for everyone.
