Crossover isn't free and doesn't have DXVK or professional support from Valve, though. The difference is pretty obvious when you compare compatibility lists: I'd consider Proton's 85%+ coverage of the Steam store to be 'decent enough', but the patchwork support Crossover offers is more along the lines of 'barely justifiable' from a price perspective.

I agree about the other issues you bring up though. The lack of 32-bit support is going to be a real stability challenge for anyone who wants to take Mac gaming seriously, and without a decent graphics API like Vulkan it will be exceptionally hard to court developers. Interestingly, it seems like Rosetta's overhead could be the bottleneck for a lot of these games too: if you watch the performance of GPU-light games like CS:GO, people struggle to surpass 90fps even at 720p on the new machines. Since ARM will always be punching up the abstraction layer to emulate x86, I suspect this may always be the case for Apple Silicon.

Let’s not pretend Apple is doing it for the good of their customers. They don’t want to cannibalise their own product lines. It makes sense from a business point of view but is terrible from a user one.

Obviously the iPad could serve professionals. The surface has shown that. It’s not even about developer. I personally would love an iPad Pro with the full version of PowerPoint. I have a MacBook Air and the iPad Pro could basically do the same things. Of course if Apple gave me the product I want I wouldn’t have had to buy the iPad I use when I want to show things to customers.

I remember an interview that NPR had hosted with both a philly DA and a UPenn law professor (Lou Rulli) specializing in civil forfeiture.

I remember it because of how thoroughly the law prof eviscerated every defense that the DA put forward in defense of the practice, the episode itself was held in the wake of the Philly DA seizing a grandmothers home because her grandson sold a small amount of marijuana outside of it.

The DA was trying to actively avoid answering the question of how evicting an elderly woman on fixed income from her home without due process was legal.

It turns out that the Philadelphia Police prior to the current DA specialized in robbing minorities via civil forfeiture, and were some of the most prolific abusers of civil forfeiture in the country, treating the seized money as profit they could use towards their budget, which incentivized them to find victims who couldn’t fight back.

> True innovation would be more control over your money. For example, you could have a bank account with $100 in it, and you allocate dollars $0-50 to be "online" money. This can mean different things, but for the sake of example let's say that means that you can go to https://bank.com/user/endisneigh and if I give you a special code that I create you can take an amount of money directly from my bank account, specified by the code. No need to use something like stripe.

This is a thing in the Netherlands, between iDeal / Tikkie / and bank transfers. iDeal is used for payments online, it depends a tiny bit on your bank but you get a QR code and you scan it, it then does a direct bank payment from your bank to their account.

Tikkie is similar but is p2p. I can create a link or a QR code and send it to people. They can then use the link or QR code and send me money. Alternatively you can just use my account number (an IBAN printed on the card) and just transfer money.

I think the answer is that the pain wasn't enough in the US to encourage the kind of innovation you saw in Africa. The marginal benefit of paying with your phone instead of card in your wallet is actually pretty small for most Americans, and much of it can only can be realized until you can leave your wallet at home. Similarly for other innovations where the incumbent was "good enough," ubiquitous, and already built.
Well, they covered that too. "As part of the deal [to get his money back], he agreed not to pursue legal action against the government".
> But you can write Java and C# in a more performant way while not sacrificing time to market, speed of refactors and maintainability.

Writing Java in a more performant way often means ditching OOP and using primitive types, primitive arrays everywhere instead, and also avoiding allocations up to the point where all objects are reused. Such code is just as slow to write and as error-prone as C, and way worse than C++ where at least you have RAII, generics, STL algorithms and zero-cost abstractions.

Universal health care and centralization of patient records would probably be required to do what you’re talking about.

If scientists actually could mine everyone’s data easily it would be a lot easier to do stuff like this. Privacy laws and the fact that so much of the medical system is disconnected from itself get in the way - it’s normal for every new doctor to ask the same questions again because there’s no reliable way to share information.
A bit disappointed the Fed’s instant payment system (FedNow), going live in 2023, wasn’t mentioned (although Zelle and private wallets like Venmo and Cash App were). The knock on effect from this will be a decline in neobanks (Chime, for example) funding themselves from interchange fees, necessitating free deposit account support through policy (as commercial banks don’t want to provide these accounts at a loss and interest income would be insufficient to be self sustaining).

54 other countries already have instant payment systems, and utility priced (ie very cheap) instant payment infra is the innovation. America is just catching up the the developed world, financial services speaking. After deposit accounts and instant payments are solidified, the remaining innovation is…lending (securitize all the things, real estate, autos, factoring, float, etc).

The remittance cost piece was spot on though wrt to Wise. Surprised we haven’t seen more copycats, but it turns out culture and management are the hard parts, not the tech.

I wonder what percent of the buyers were mistaken and what percent were anticipating this bump.

Relatedly, I wonder if executives of the Canadian company considered the possibility when rumors of the FB name change started circulating. Would it be legal for executives (or other employees with a decent amount of shares) to sell their company stock now, to lock in these gains? Or would the executives be subject to a purchase/sale schedule that would make it difficult to make nimble moves like this? Employees would presumably be less constrained with regard to the timing of stock sales.

Honestly, I am dismayed by the negative reactions. Even if facebook fails at this, they will produce huge technical innovation. This is an expensive space, you need a big player willing to spend 10-20 billion on it. You need the technical resources and data. The end result will be a ton of open source and new know how in AR/VR. What a blessing!

That's not the interpretation the courts have taken. Essentially you can't take the constitution as a whole and say it applies to Americans or not. There are rights specifically conveyed to citizens (like voting). Those are clearly American only. Then in contrast to that there are rights conveyed to people generally, and rights formed as blanket restrictions on government. Those are interpreted as equally applying to non Americans.
Hijacking the thread a bit, but I'm not sure people understand how predatory student housing is in aggregate.

At many colleges you don't even have a choice to live in the dorms or not as an undergrad, living on campus for 1-2 years is tied to enrollment.

On top of this lots of financing for college housing is wonky, because some colleges do not pay property tax. (So you can have the college hold the land and some third party company finance/build the building students are forced to live in.) This is a significant part of ACC's business model.[0] Student loan money is used to pay rent on these buildings, so it's indirectly funded by taxpayers.

The power colleges have over students lives is concerning regardless of if this dorm design is good or bad. If UCSB put in one of these requirements students could be forced to take part in a social experiment designed by a billionaire. UCSB, or another campus w/ a Munger dorm, doesn't have this requirement today but could have it tomorrow.

It does expose it to YouTube people, but I think that's reasonable given that there's money involved.

> "The felony murder rule is an exception to the normal rules of homicide."

Whether or not one accepts that use of “normal”, it remains a rule and the claim that murder without specific intent is categorically not first degree, even in broad general terms is false (even before looking into all the variations in specific statutory schemes in the US, which really frustrate this kind of generalization, which takes common law rules and overgeneralizes the way things that are not part of the common law are mapped on to it.)

Yeah our male BC was an adoption and I feel like he behaves more like an Aussie than a BC -- e.g. nips and barks at animals instead of the BC stare which is apparently a key difference in their herding behaviour -- and does the same for people.

Most of the things in the article were possible in the 2000s via credit unions, just not banks in the USA. I honestly don't think it's innovation in any meaningful sense. That's to say nothing about the rest of the world.

Alliant for example has had same-day ACH for a while. Many credit unions also removed the ability to overdraft by default (technically this was always possible with a bank if you called).

Apple is nice comparison.

Apple leveraged the power of its brand in that transition (and created a flywheel of sorts to strengthen its brand), whereas the current FB brand wouldn't likely extend as well.

So helps show one reason why FB likely saw the need to change naming and start building a new brand (whereas Apple (and Amazon) went the other way).

I know, that's why I presented hypothetical alternative actions law enforcement could have taken, as a thought experiment.

At the root of the issue is this: absent explicit evidence of a crime, should possession of arbitrary amounts of cash be considered suspect? Suppose he'd been pulled over with 2 million dollars cash in a truck and said he'd intended to use it to buy a mansion but the transaction fell through. How should law enforcement respond? Is there any amount of cash where you'd say "Something isn't right here"?

I never said they were prefect, that's not a requirement to do good now. Yes they laid of workers here but they pay living wages in those outsourced countries. Many of them FAR closer to the raw materials. If fact outsourcing manufacturing has at times been found to be a wash in terms of environmental impacts. Finished products are often much smaller and less impactful to ship than raw materials. I don't know that is the case here but unless you can so prove that it's Environmentally damaging to outsource their product your are spouting bullshit. Beyond that Patagonia sells their products all over the world so no one aside form them has any clue if it's a negative impact or not. Also how do you know they haven't invested in new methods of producing artificial fibers? Also since when do you need to be a materials scientist to care about the environment? Also they use a TON of wool in their products. I've tried to buy their products, they are normally cut in a manner that doesn't work well for me - slim and tapered, often when I wanted it was because of the wool usage as it's a great material for outdoor clothing.

>Why is the absolute 5% and the RR 32%? What's the difference?

Absolute reduction is compared to control in absolute terms (16% hospitalized in control minus 11% with treatment = 5%).

Relative risk reduction is the absolute reduction divided by hospitalizations in the control (5%/16%)

Absolute % tells you how big the effect is, relative risk tells you how big it is in comparison to the reference.

>Why wouldn't they mention anything else but the reduction in hospitalization in their Interpretation section? Is it because all the other effects were not statistically significant to count?

The P values tell you the % chance that the difference could be due to random sampling.

e.g. hospitalization for COVID P = 0·1 means that the there is an 10% chance this difference is due to random sampling. The standard for reportable finding is P < 0.05, more than 95% confidence the observation is not due to random sampling.

>Why wouldn't they mention anything else but the reduction in hospitalization in their Interpretation section? Is it because all the other effects were not statistically significant to count?

The primary test the study was designed to evaluate was:

>risk of hospitalization defined as either retention in a COVID-19 emergency setting or transfer to tertiary hospital due to COVID-19 for patients allocated fluvoxamine versus placebo

This is why most of the discussion focuses on this question.
Death was also statistically significant and called out in the findings, most of the other outcomes didn't pass the 95% threshold
