I personally prefer the incremental yearly updates to huge changes on a longer timeframe. I'm pretty excited about Live Text, personally. I've been getting a lot of great use out of it on iOS.

If we're talking about other recent releases, ARM (/iOS app interoperability) support was definitely a huge change :)
That's exactly what I do each autumn: Update to the macOS version from autumn last year.

So far I was fine with it though of course sometimes it's annoying to get the latest XCode (and iOS sdk) version for development, so I have to resort to a VM from time to time.

If you're on iOS/macOS, you can send someone a web link to join a FaceTime call with you. Not sure how the browser support is offhand. There's no client for anything else and others can't initiate calls.
Yeah Macs deal with this by requiring a slightly longer press than you normally would with normal typing. Also for the caps and eject buttons. Smart idea that works well. I wish other manufacturers would follow their lead (like they do on the design front!)

Disgusting, but I've never any incidents of this. Almost every state requires them to state their name, badge number, and department if requested.

If I'm paying them with taxes, and allowing them the ability to use a massive amount of force taht non-officers are not allowed to, you can be sure I'd want their info in case they make a big mistake.

Thanks so much for this tool! Looks like one could generate a planet with less than $5 on Digital Ocean.
The first seconds of the demo video brought a big grin to my face, caused by a huge wave of nostalgia. I had _totally_ forgotten about the Atari key noise ("pock!")
Literally the only interesting feature, to me, is Low Power Mode
Everyone can initiate a call in Google Meet. Only Apple customers can initiate a call in FaceTime. So, they're not exactly equivalent.
You can’t compare uni and bootcamps because they’re a false equivalency as someone else pointed out.

The sole purpose of a bootcamp is to get a job afterwards. That’s why they market their job placement rates so much.

Uni, video courses, and MOOCs are for education. Not everyone uses them to get a job, so job placement for a video course or uni compared to bootcamp doesn’t give you much info.

Anecdote: I did a self-paced online school to get my first software job. I did research on it in regards to job placement.

After getting my first software job, I have since taking many video courses and even went back to uni to get a degree in Computer Science. All of that was purely for further education, not getting a job.

I wouldn’t go to a bootcamp in my position because I don’t need it. They aren’t focused on education or academics but job training.

Facebook Reports Third Quarter 2021 Results
I am now humming that song from memory. I LOVED watching 3-2-1 contact after school.

But as a parent, I can tell you that it's sooo much better growing up today. We had to have shows like that dribbled out to us on a daily basis, and learning stopped after the 30 minutes were over and the McNeil Lehrer News Hour would start. Today, kids have access to that kind of programming any time they want, on various screens, in never ending quantities. Any question can be answered without a trip to the library or reading decades old information out of whatever volume of World Book Encyclopedia your family had on hand.

It was simpler when we were younger because our world was so much smaller.

That Focus mode would be killer if it integrated some sort of pomodoro / calendar integration.
Cue is nice, but I'm not sure that solves anything.

For one, it would require that we first migrate all our current Kustomize-based Kubernetes manifests to Cue, and it would require that all apps be designed from the ground up as "repurposable" templates.

I'm more interested in the orchestration aspect here. We already have apps expressed as deployable resources, but we need something that can do that.

On my desktop computer that runs Linux, and where I mostly type code and write in English, I use US English as the input and a Dvorak-based layout in hardware that I made for my programmable keyboard.

Since I very rarely type in my native tongue on that computer, and I annoyingly frequently have had to reinstall the OS from scratch, I no longer bother with customizing xmodmap or similar things on that computer.

So the few times when I have to type æ, ø or å on that computer, I just Google aelig, oslash or aring respectively and I go to the Wikipedia article about the letter or some other page from the results that has the letter on it and copy it from there.

Works well enough given how rarely I type any of those letters on that computer.
they're probably implying it was a sort of warrant canary or that they did not comply with overreaching government wiretap requests (the assumption being that now they do).
> I'd love to learn not just how to use it but also how to know when to use it.

I think you have to learn it and get some experience before you can know when it's useful.

FWIW the only dev I know that had any experience with Prolog told me that it was too slow so his job was to rewrite the program in C. He said it was basically a big loop with ifs and elsifs...
100% agree, personally I just prefer typing but seems like I am not in the majority. I very often receive audio replies to my typed messages and it’s very frustrating. 70% of the time, I’m not in a position where I can easily listen to the audio vs just reading text. The other 30% of the time I’m simply annoyed as I do not want to be forced to listen to the audio.
"We really enjoyed trying to build something useful and impactful for you." To me this sounds like the startup failed and the team got acquire-hired to work on something new at Figma. With such a press release (blog post) both parties can claim success. I personally know three teams that went through such acquisitions. Bank account empty, acquirer assumes no risk, investors get nothing, product closed immediately.

>and I suspect it will have not-great scores until someone writes a game and optimizes it specifically for the M1. Which is most likely never.

Don't forget that these days few demanding games are "optimized for Platform XYZ", they're generally using one a small set of middleware/engine they license. So it's more a question of if Unreal Engine and Unity and so on get optimizations aimed at Apple's M-series chips. That isn't out of the question at all, given that they definitely have optimization aimed at Apple's A-series chips. Once they do, everything going forward that uses them will be better "for free". Even if they don't hit the performance of something truly hand tuned just to make max use of the arch it won't be entirely ignored either. May not even be that much work.

That's another potential non-technical performance advantage in moving the Mac from x86, they get to piggyback in some areas off the enormously higher market share iDevices. We'll see how it works out of course.
Ultimately, how many engineers a company has is not that relevant when it comes to scaling.

A small team of product-oriented engineers with a devops mentality can easily develop, maintain, and continuously deploy a considerably complex application.

A similarly complex project in the hands of a larger sales driven company often resembles a spaghetti ball, and is held together with rotting shell scripts and unproductive manual processes.
You forget the other company he manages.
Same with video rental information after Robert Bork's rental history was leaked and all of Congress realized the same thing could happen to any of them, regardless of party. If the Patriot Act didn't kill it off, the wording of the law along with the switch to streaming likely has rendered it mostly ineffective.
The tax code is an iron rod of oppression and needs to be nuked from orbit, then replaced with a coherent system.

At the same time, Congress needs to budget in a sane way.
Why are you bringing up vaccines and medicine in a discussion about bootcamps?

I’m criticizing both the false claims and the VC model of hyper scaling and hyper growth being applied to education.

"Move fast and break things" isn't the motto of the medical industry, but it is for tech. So how is this even related?

If you want to talk about medicine, that’s a completely different discussion.
I believe that the main assumption they can make is that they can use the name on the ID forms issued by the government or, in case of foreign citizens, their passports. Due to history of international diplomacy, the general standard for passports expects that in addition to whatever script the country uses, they will also include the name of the person in English or French - so this is the key source of the problem, as for passports in e.g. Russian you will get an "English" name that you might use, however, you may get passports with names only in French, so you would have to support the English and French alphabets but perhaps not necessarily any others.

Regarding trailing spaces etc, IMHO the standard would be "as shown in passport" i.e. trailing spaces definitely would not matter, but spaces and punctuation between words would (e.g. D'Artagnan as a name). I looked for but did not find any specific restrictions on name length. In general, the country will have regulations on what they accept as names in their official IDs, and again you may piggyback on other institutions - as long as you accept everything for which your government have issued documents, you should be fine; and if someone has an interesting case that requires changing the process, let that fight happen between them and the government first.

It's strange and sad how, to me, at least, WW2 artifacts like these are moving from the category of items representing the time we live in to items representing the distant past, like wrecks of wooden frigates. ~80 years is a long time.
I don't think it was Firewire that kept it as a niche product. It was that iTunes wasn't initially available on Windows machines, and Macs were still quite rare.

I had a G3 iMac (Graphite) at the time the iPod came out. So I got one. Actually, I got three: the first died after a day, the second was DOA, but the third kept chugging away for about 3 years until the battery died and it was only usable when plugged in.

It's funny to remember how unusual the iPod was. People on the tube in London, which isn't known for conversation amongst strangers, would ask me what it was. Tiny, about the size of a cassette case, with that that amazing white face and silver case. It was like something from the future.
The dosing isn't based on a single dose. Obviously if you vomit it up before the initial dose has time to work, then you need a second dose.

I have worked at many bootcamp-style educational programs.

Teaching in a bootcamp-style environment is a team endeavor. Recent graduates can be a part of that mix.

Generally, it makes sense to hire some of the instructor pool out of recent graduates. It is often difficult to find instructors at all. The recent graduates know the curriculum. It also helps those recent graduates develop a deeper understanding of the material and extend their job searching window. It can be a form of peer learning that some students respond well to.

There are also definite limitations. Primarily, the recent graduates might not have great teaching skills, knowledge outside of the curriculum, and knowledge of real-world applications.
Lol. You think there wouldn't be a way to proxy signals to keep it anonymous? They can't even reliably trace robo call spam on normal phone networks as is.

But sure it's possible. But the public is almost always one step ahead of the tech developed by the police.

If we're at the level of piloting robot humans remotely in huge crowds for protests, you can bet there's a few small really smart people defending everyone against tech attacks.

It's why the police always lobby for regulations or bans instead of fighting tech against tech.

It's really not hard to be a "10x engineer" if you disregard tech-debt and error-handling. I was part of a very productive, complementary duo where my partner churned out a lot of code that only catered to the happy path, and I'd clean it up/"productize" it.

I actually enjoy that sort of work, but didn't receive as many accolades as the guy "churning out features quickly", even though he'd break the build and block the entire company at least once a week before I paired up with him.

Once I saw how the sausage is made, I'm a lot more sceptical of the "10x" label, either there's an invisible support system, or the code base had a short half-life. Any other scenario is a set-up for disaster.
I'm not really sure it's a idea that's usable, I mean the results of the framework would end up below results on actual explosions, so it'd be a PITA to search for information...

You're right that agile is more positively stated and this declaration violates the more productive tone of the manifesto [0].

> Agile processes promote sustainable development

Did I take license? I did. Yet, I was present for some of the unpleasant and ineffective abuses and waste that "agile" was a counteraction to. Although the same types of leaders continue to act against my interpretation's goal, the industry is broadly improved (though physics continues to allow for localized terribleness). There are those who act as though talent retention isn't an important factor in delivery but they can't talk to us because they're busy trying to mend their velocity.

More importantly, it gives us granular isolation and automated ways of activating them, rather than just having a single Do Not Disturb option that does all-or-nothing. It’s a feature that I have really come to like during the betas and definitely helps me to stay on top of information overload, allowing notifications from certain apps at certain times of day (e.g. work hours, sleep hours) or places (e.g. gym).

You can say that about anything. It's better to point out real concerns. There always are, than unknown unknowns that doesn't really tell anybody anything real.

The vaccines have side effects, though are regarded as a very safe method. It's very targeted, as broad corona vaccines are not deemed to be good. Medical experts know this much better.
Their wiki uses the slash: https://www.reddit.com/wiki/rss

Personally I feel like the precedence is more obvious with the slash, so it's clearer to figure out how more obscure combinations work, like:

https://reddit.com/r/news+worldnews/.rss

Do you have to add ".rss" to both subreddit names? (I assume not) Is it more likely that their parser could break some day with or without the slash? RSS is fringe enough, so removing the slash is probably even more fringe.

That being said, I also hate needlessly ugly URLs. If someone leaves in the tracking garbage then I hate it (like this):

?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
I know I’m late to the party here, but I feel the need to chime in anyway.

In general I agree, the vaccinations do more good than harm. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t continually question everything the government tells us to do. When you surrender your right (or ability) to make decisions for yourself, no matter how well-intentioned, you have already lost your right to self-determination.

In the Western world (US, UK, Germany, France, etc.) it’s easy to sit back and judge other countries. To varying degrees none of these Western countries have ever had these problems.

As a well-educated American who is very aware of the history involved, but has lived in far Eastern Europe (Estonia) for 4 years it has been shocking.

In the West we read and hear about the history, but we never live it. Here the people born in the 80’s don’t have to read about it, they remember it. The people born in the 90’s had parents and grandparents drilling into them from birth how they should horde resources and never, ever, speak to anyone they didn’t know.

In Estonia they have been “free” since 1992, but they didn’t even have their own set of laws until 2004 - before that everything was a carbon copy of the Soviet laws.

In these countries it is possible that Covid is a bigger threat to their fledgling democracy than to public health.

Whether you’re a he/she/they/them or you’re from a country that actually suffered during the Cold War, stop assuming that everyone else has had the same life experiences you have.

>What the hell went through everyone's head when they built this system?

They thought that the next computer system would be better, and when they re-wrote it for the new machine, they'd be able to fix the problems they found, in about 3 years or so. They certainly didn't expect it to still be running in the 1970s or 1980s, let alone in 2021.

IBM broke everything when they introduced backwards compatibility. It saved a ton of time, in the short term, but everything before that point was frozen, and the technical debt it caused has never been paid.
There are people that do some wild things with shortcuts, I wouldn't be surprised if someone has already done the work with that.

Edit: It looks like shortcuts won't be able to set (or clear) focus modes, so that'll have to wait. Bummer.
Yep I got my Chuwi 14" for the same reason. To use in situations where I'm not very comfortable using an expensive laptop.

And like yourself I was impressed with the speed, display and battery life. I would have been disappointed if it had cost me 1000 euro. But for 180, wow. It's much better than I thought it would be.

Even 4 years later I still use it a lot. I'm not really a laptop guy anyway, I prefer desktops so this is in fact my only personal laptop in active use.
you're perfectly right

I get scared every time that senior leadership pushes a new member on the team, because I know that overall quality will drop; their view is completely related to how much things they want to done on every cycle, and they don't care about quality (until it blows up in their face)
