I don't think it will be the price of a new machine, it will be the price of a flat rate repair which is a fixed price for any sort of work past a certain point (as far as the genius bar worker described to me at least). For my 2020 laptop it could explode in a fireball and Apple will repair it for $418 before tax, my flat rate for this laptop.
There might be language games at work here. '4/4 only' could be totally reasonable for an MVP from the perspective of the software developers, but not minimally viable from the perspective of a musician.

Here's the first tablet in original language sung by Peter Pringle (with help from prof. A. R. George for pronunciation) accompanied with music instruments available at the time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-ex09YaTOQ, a continuation to a very popular video made years ago where he sung an excerpt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUcTsFe1PVs.
> This is exactly the situation with a number of long-standing, formerly popular languages.

This is also not new. I've replaced a number of "legacy" apps because, basically, it was too hard to find devs for the current language. This was happening with perl in the early 2000s, PHP in the 2010s, Ruby now. Java has gone through surges and waning of support over the years. When I was a fresh devs, the old timers told me about this thing called serverside javascript.

This kind of thing is inevitable. It is something that businesses just need to plan for, because it can happen with established languages (PHP) just as easily as it can for trendy ones. And you can't predict future generation's attitudes towards tech.
I haven't done it for a while but when I last compared 15 to 30 year rates the interest was outrageous, pure usury, for the 30 year. But that isn't my main motivation to sticking to a 15 year, it's just a mechanism to limit how much I can borrow and spend. It caps me at a reasonable amount without me having to think about it, while granting a lower interest rate. It just nicely lines up with an amount that my spouse or I can afford with even one job, or a very basic low paying job. I'm definitely doing what you're suggesting and staying away from the edge.
I know that David Nanian and co worked with Apple to address the issue(s) that prevented them from providing a bootable backup.

100% unrelated but I would suggest installing `pipx` when you need python packages to use from the CLI/outside a python project environment. `pipx` installs each package in its own virtualenv, so it is independent of your system python.

I don’t really get this point… how does that work?
These kind of organizational problems happen everywhere, that doesn't bug me. What bugs me is when leadership knows about it and doesn't care. After low-level engineers stick their professional neck out to complain in internal town halls and through feedback forms, and leadership gives some bullshit answer that doesn't address or even acknowledge the problem. It would be less infuriating if they just said "I don't give a shit." It's the weasel words and pretending the problem doesn't exist that infuriates me. A lot of the time it doesn't even take much work at all to begin addressing the issue, like a working group for continuous improvement of highly-painful high-value processes. You don't even have to solve it. Just attempt to address it.
>at a steep discount before they even hit the market

This isn't really true. They are paying above market rates and have been for the past 18 months or so.
Just a note to say that the term for a mortgage in the USA is really up to the borrower. This is because you are permitted to pay back more than the specified loan repayment, any time you like. So you can make a 30-year loan into a 20 year loan if you want, or any term shorter than 30 years. The main benefit to a 15-year loan is that it (usually) has a lower interest rate than the equivalent 30-year loan.
10x this. Install it. Set autoupdates. Come back in 3 years when it's time to think about upgrading to the next major release. Maybe don't upgrade, because, why? Everything works. I just want to keep things working.

To be honest, Desktops reached their peak for me with Gnome 2. I'm using MATE and I'm good.
It absolutely is. If the person behind was unable to avoid collision, then the collision occurred because they were following too closely. It doesn't matter whether it was a Tesla phantom-braking, or a human slamming on the brakes to avoid hitting a dog. It is always the driver's responsibility to maintain enough distance that they can safely respond to any action taken by the vehicle ahead.
> People aren’t swapping their 2011 i3 for a 2011 i7 if they care about performance

I beg to differ.
I swapped my 2011 i5-2500k for a 2012 i7-3770 and it was a nice and cheap upgrade.

Used hardware is cheap, there is no reason to not upgrade it all the way.

Ask HN: How do you deal with your not-so-intelligent family/friends?
I don't want to mince words here. There are people around you who cannot think at your level. And may be you are that person to someone else too. This does not include cases when we can say "So what? They have their own things they are good at." No, these people are genuinely atleast a level below you intellectually. It is quite common in my circles due to very understandable reasons. It could be parents, partners, siblings etc. So how do you deal with them when discussing issues which need deep thinking?
Yeah, I used to be active in various audio & development-related Discord instances and one day my account got banned with no good reason and no possibility for appeal. Fuck that.
Throw it away and give you a new one?
I feel like people forgot after about five years. I remember wasting a week filling out various pieces of paperwork and submitting byzantine configuration CLs so that some contractor would have permission to view a certain webpage through the corporate proxy. (I think what made me most mad is that regular employees could view the website with no additional configuration. I can understand if I was filling out tickets to get approval, or a security review, but the actual configuration of the proxy had to change to allow this, in addition to getting all of those approvals!) My team didn't make the website, and the contractor didn't work on my team, so I'm honestly not sure why I was involved. I just remember being annoyed about it. I'm sure there are some memes about it in the archive.
If by "toolboxes" you mean the original "CoreOS Toolbox" (https://github.com/coreos/toolbox) which was originally a bash script, now re-written in Go (https://github.com/containers/toolbox) that's very, very unfortunate.

It should just be a user configuration.

In the original we defaulted to the latest Fedora image (yes, even in the days of CoreOS... blame me for that), but allowed the user to override this with an environment variable (and later a `.toolboxrc` file in their home directory). Thus, IMHO, this is a regression.

Now it seems the new stewards are trying to be "clever" and protect you from yourself, creating "foot-guns" in the process.

According to the docs (https://github.com/containers/toolbox#image-requirements):

Since Toolbox only works with OCI images that fulfill certain requirements, it will refuse images that aren't tagged with com.github.containers.toolbox="true" and com.github.debarshiray.toolbox="true" labels. These labels are meant to be used by the maintainer of the image to indicate that they have read this document and tested that the image works with Toolbox. You can use the following snippet in a Dockerfile for this:

LABEL com.github.containers.toolbox="true"

edit: I forgot part of my point: This is a regression from the original utility.

I appreciate the analysis, though I am not sure that any of the results should surprise anyone.

- NY is moving away from nuclear (counted under "clean")

- none of the "clean" sources can easily scale on demand. Sun, wind, hydro and nuclear have either fixed or random output

- all peaker plants and less-desirable and so less-fully-maximized sources fall under the dirty category. Sun not providing enough juice? Ramp up nat gas peaker plants

No surprises here. We need batteries, more reliable clean base generation if we want to use less dirty peak generation.
This is a tangential question. I adore my Thinkpad x230t but it has a whopping ~1 hour battery life at this point. Do you leave yours permanently plugged in or do you have some sort of modern battery solution for our ancient beast with an amazing keyboard?
Yes, as long as your use-case only includes driving straight forward, the MVP is fine. Supporting non-4/4 time is such a fundamental change that not being to turn is a good analogy.

The rule of thumb is that you need to design to support at least 3 different use cases from the start if you want to create something that can viably extend to being a generic product.
Subjective answer: Any data that has the potential for abuse regarding privacy will eventually find its way to being abused. Providing said feature requires curating the dataset necessary to power it. How can we trust companies beholden to quarterly earnings to do the right thing when financial motivations inform 100% of their actions? We can't.
I wrote a comment above addressing some of your thoughts.

I'm not the one to say if what we choose will last in the future, but we really are not afraid that they will be gone in the near future. The technologies we picked are not the "hot new thing", and we just picked them up.

If I can use your metaphor, I'm not sure we could have built this in COBOL. We chose the tools that we thought were best at this moment in time.
My point is, if Democrats actually cared about this they would fix it in the states they have power in. Instead, they just benefit from it without trying to reform it. It feels like virtue signalling to me. If you think it is a problem then fix it.
Framework's hardware is entirely open source (https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/ExpansionCards) so you can buy parts from any third-party that wants to produce them.
Nobody knows, full stop. We can guess and conjecture about what should and should not be possible with respect to the origins of life, but really, we know very little. So it's not very meaningful.

We haven't observed abiogenesis and experiment/observation is the ultimate guide.
Krugman has stated in the past that the entire reason he became an economist is because it was the closest real world profession to being a psychohistorian.

From the original comment alone one can't deduce it was about zero communication without some serious assumptions. Only a difference in communication structure.

That this invokes the kneejerk response of "well you need to communicate to make products" is arguably a bigger testament of what is wrong with tech. Including the incessant need to label everything with only the smallest details.
I know what he replied with, a yes and an irrelevant example so that leaves just the yes. What I'm after is a stronger, relevant argument.

Let us not forget my original argument. Where I said that this is the current legal situation, I just think that this will change in the future if autonomous actions (driving or other behaviors) keep improving. I believe we have reached a point where it's not necessarily clear anymore who is in the wrong. Not in a legal sense, the law tends to run after the facts. More in a moral sense.
IMO packages like virtualenv should be brought in by a local python that's installed, not brew.
Well, several posters in this thread have made it clear that they intend to replace real meat with fake meat over any objections. I think this is reasonable to be upset about.

For many of us, this seems like another example of the affluent, technological society causing us a problem, then selling us a solution, which will inevitably cause more problems, and etc.

Perhaps the problem is not that humans eat meat, but rather something at the ideal level of this society, causing it to act in this way over and over again, despite the cascade of self-inflicted crises that it has no hope of solving…
I think the article is talking about when the internal drive is physically damaged/not working, and not just simple USB booting. USB booting is definitely supported on M1 Macs since I did it last week, but I don't have a machine with an actually broken SSD to test with.

It can be observed that even T2 systems will fail to power up the Intel CPU system if the BridgeOS cannot be read properly. The system will only power up the T2 until it is reflashed through Apple Configurator.
TL:DR: don't waste your time. There are literally security features not implemented since 2017.

E.G: no proper support for webauthn (CTAP2) in firefox on macos (abysymal situation shown here: https://fidoalliance.org/fido2/fido2-web-authentication-weba...) linux not much better. Safari, Chrome, even Edge have it, while firefox is stagnating since 2017 (bug report: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1530373 ) :-(

When I hear about features like Colorways being prioritized over things like proper webauthn support on important platform (4 years now) it makes me sad.

Would have helped personally, but moving parts of firefox to rust not even decimated the contributors margin, but probably reduced it 100x. and here we are with rs_webauthn lib lacking necessary fixes in security important area :(

p.s. I knot how my post sounds, but I'm frustrated with (some) mozilla decisions.
The post is at least up front that it's got an agenda that it's setting out to prove.

A more standard measure of progress would be carbon intensity (carbon emitted per kWh generated) I have a hunch that it doesn't support this argument as the decision to bucket everything into "clean" or "dirty" is otherwise bizarre.

It's also misses things like greater electrification which might be graded poorly on this, e.g. every car running on gas powered electricity is an improvement but will show up here as a bad thing.

I can't see any scenario on any hardware in which I would not strongly advise to make regular backups.

Beside theses laptop are designed to be used (if configured so) with full disk encryption using a strong key stored inside a secure enclave on the cpu. If something is amiss the data is lost, they could almost say it's a feature (but they probably won't as is would be seen as a bug by the majority of people hence this thread).
They do have good repair as well. It saves you a ton of money because the devices are so common and the parts are cheap, I don’t go to Lenovo.com, I buy some junk devices and take the parts off them.

You’re stating effort like it’s hard to unscrew a laptop and seat in a new part, which you’ll need to do for framework too.
Is /dev/null fast? I will use /dev/null if it is fast.
Well yes like I said on Windows you can access the terminal and set its properties without encoding terminal escape sequences in the output stream. On Linux afaik escape sequences are the only way. On MacOS i have no idea. Generally speaking the escape sequences aren't "standard" but different terminals (and these days terminal emulators) all have their own codes. Hence ncurses which tries to encapsulate this and provide a uniform API so that the application doesn't have to deal with these murky details.

Have you double checked with s hex editor what is in the txt file? Suppose it could also be your text editor that doesn't want to render those codes.
I think this is about right, as long as mastodon is enforcing the requirement across all instances. I suspect that if it was enforcing this in other instances it would have said so.
So both Windows 11 and Fedora are significantly better than Windows 10 in CPU utilization for you?
Assuming you want to do repair, I have no interest in repairing anything. In fact I'll happily part with my money to not have to deal with repairing stuff. Same applies to my car.
There's a fundamental problem with the Foundation series - it's based on obsolete scientific thinking about predictability. The concept of 'engineers of history' that the Foundation series is based on - i.e. that these white-robed geniuses could steer the course of future events, hundreds or thousands of years later, by making small key changes to the present - relies on a lack of knowledge of chaos and sensitive dependence on initial conditions (which to be fair only really came with the widespread use of computers, i.e. Lorenz 1963):

https://www.astro.puc.cl/~rparra/tools/PAPERS/lorenz1962.pdf

However, the general concept was already known:

> Poincaré, 1903:
“A very small cause which escapes our notice determines a considerable effect that we cannot fail to see, and then we say that the effect is due to chance. If we knew exactly the laws of nature and the situation of the universe at the initial moment, we could predict exactly the situation of that same universe at a succeeding moment. But even if it were the case that the natural laws had no longer any secret for us, we could still only know the initial situation approximately. If that enabled us to predict the succeeding situation with the same approximation, that is all we require, and we should say that the phenomenon had been predicted, that it is governed by laws. But it is not always so; it may happen that small differences in the initial conditions produce very great ones in the final phenomena. A small error in the former will produce an enormous error in the latter. Prediction becomes impossible, and we have the fortuitous phenomenon.”

Thus 'Seldon's equations of psychohistory' would almost certainly be subject to sensitive dependence on initial conditions, and would be no more useful than algorithms claiming to predict future financial market behavior, or the specific weather at a certain location on a year from now.

It's not really Asimov's fault - this was also an era when people believed they could learn how to steer hurricanes with minor energy inputs, another topic where chaos demonstrated why that would be impossible to do with any confidence.

However, it's also kind of hilarious that Seldon failed to predict fundamental changes in society (like women in leading academic or political positions), Asimov's vision is basically 1950s society projected into the future. I suppose some people have wistful longings for that era, but not me.
I'm in the UK too, finding myself unwilling to pay the new Mac prices and getting impatient for the framework. So, recently I've been considering a StarBook Mk V from https://starlabs.systems/

They publish a full disassembly guide[0], so I'm reasonably sure the whole thing is repairable and upgradable if necessary. Lots of options for custom build at order time including coreboot. I'm a bit hesitant about a 1920x1080 display but otherwise extremely tempted.

Thats not how you look at this. If this were a strong market signal they would be selling to Blackrock at a profit and not a loss. The exchange value is down not up. There were equal buyers matched to sellers in 2008 as well when the market was cratering (not that we are in 2008).

The other comment points it out correctly, no one wants it price conscious or not.

Between the fact that many of them work without issue for years, and the fact that an new equivalent to your 2011 i3 becomes exponentially cheaper over time, repairing it will never be worth it.

A Raspberry PI 4 is a functional computer but costs less than just the CPU of that i3 based machine while trouncing it in performance and power efficiency.

Welcome to government bureaucracy and understaffing. I had a similar issue with a rights violation last year - nobody cares or investigates, just pass the buck.

Your, or their, insurance might investigate (somewhat unlikely). You can try to complain to Telsa, but I think they are more concerned about sweeping negative stuff under the rug whenever possible. Your state DOT might be interested in the report. I doubt they'll really look into unless there are a bunch of similar incidents.

"... she had actually had the same kind of collision on Autopilot previously!"

Sounds like someone is extremely ignorant or doesn't value their life. Why would she trust a safety critical system that failed and caused a crash previously?
It's not just about upgrades, in fact it's not even mainly about upgrades. It's about being able to understand the machine, repairing it when necessary and ultimately being able to rely on it. Otherwise your device might be a candidate for the bin after the warranty expired, which can be surprisingly quick.
