I don't know, when they were on Intel they went out of their way to support dual-booting with Windows.

Maybe if 20XX really does become year the "year of desktop on linux" they'll start to get worried? But for now it seems like an easy calculation that it only benefits Apple to allow easy dual-booting to Linux -- it makes their hardware more appealing to the hard-core geek crowd (w/ disproprtionate mind-share and knock-on effects), while still having essentially zero chance of Linux cannibalizing your every-day user market.
For a full backup of a huge DB a three-hour window is pretty small, but I doubt that is what is happening here.

A far more common setup is regular full backups, often daily though sometimes more/less frequent, with much smaller transaction log backups at high frequency, perhaps every 15 minutes, between. That way you lose at most what has happened since the last log backup, and you can restore to any point in time between the full backup and the last log backup. It takes more effort to restore as you need to first restore the full then restore (replay) the log backups in sequence until the point you care about.

Sometimes there is a third layer between: differential backups. These are usually much smaller than a full backup, while also smaller (and less faf/time to restore) than the log backups for the period they cover, but don't offer point-in-time recovery.
Apple is at no risk of having Linux stealing their users away. Unless someone makes a business of reselling Macbooks with linux being preinstalled and in some magical way that business becomes immensely successful.
There is good reason to believe that’s not the case. Oh having access to TSMC 5nm to other designs would definitely help reduce the gap, but we can see from like-for-like node implementations of previous A series chips and other ARM designs that Apple has a significant lead in architecture too. M1 has some really impressive new architectural features of its own that it’s hard to imagine their competitors being able to replicate any time soon.
I've been using it for some time now, it's perfect, thank thank you.
Java is kind of 'heavy'. One project I was changing yesterday. Well over 150MB of jar files dragged in. There is maybe 50 lines of total code in the whole project. You put in the right depend in your pom file and it seems like it drags in half of the java world. Plus whatever jar files are flatpacked into those.

So with the fun bit of flatpack you have to look at all of your dependencies and see if they are somehow sneaking that bad boy in. Luckily most just use pom depends and just pull the jar in and you can override at the top level.
That’s disingenuous. There are languages like php or JavaScript that are much much faster than Python and that don’t require you to give up the keys to your house.

There's a new set of Apple silicon Macs that go all the way up to 64 GB of RAM, although you'll pay a premium for it.
I have been running Ubuntu on my 14 inch Mac for a little while now and it works great. This project here is also really exciting.

Also, Windows ARM with the recent updates also works well in the new base 14 inch. I've been using it daily, no issues.

I have nothing but praise and swiftly switching between 3 OSs sure is neat. This computer is sooo fast.

I can see myself using this Mac for many years ahead.

> Those bad weather events come usually with lots of wind - which you can harvest, too. So the solution might just be the often propagated energy mix.

As i have said a few times around here, there's a meteorological phenomenon across Europe now ( since September, and projected to go well into the winter), with bad weather ( clouds, low sunlight), low temperatures, and low wind speeds. Traditional hydro and tidal energy generation are still OK, but solar and wind are at historical lows. And again, this is ongoing for months.

Furthermore, a bad weather event like storms can have winds that are too fast for a wind generator to operate safely.

well, truth is Apple MacBook Air 13 with 16 GB of RAM is listed at € 1.429 on the Italian Apple web site.

My 3D artist friend an Asus ROG 14 with an NVidia GPU and 32GB of RAM for € 1.780 and he's using it to render complex scenes.

Does the increase in performance justify the ridiculous price?

It doesn't, in my opinion.

Also, Apple doesn't want to be a mainstream company, their market is never gonna be huge, premium prices are only justifiable if the product is somewhat exclusive.

And regulations are written in blood, so we’ll only get enforced legal regulations after a lack of accessibility kills people.

Sorry, can't help but blame capitalism for saying "fuck performance, compatibility, accessibility, security, and privacy" and making the lives of engineers (and users) miserable.
I don't get why they ever green lit this "feature". It's unpopular with at least some users, it flies in the face of their big push for privacy and it increases their liability. Who approves such a request!?

Indeed, I remember going though great lengths to keep the Solaris hosts up that I used to administer. The graybeards I worked with treated rebooting as last resort, like admitting defeat. It was a dirty word, only reserved for lesser operating systems like Windows 95, that needed rebooting often. There was an art to systems administration that seems to be lost now. Or maybe I am just looking back though rose colored glasses. :)

Don't get your expectations up too high.

My ThinkPad X1E has horrible battery life under Linux, and has a boatload of issues with thunderbolt, the external dock, HDMI port, audio and WiFi. For example: when my Thinkpad goes standby with an external monitor attached via TB, some ACPI interrupt goes insane and starts burning 100% CPU resources. USB ports regularly don't work after stand-by. BMC support seems problematic as well, my battery status is often 'unknown' with the Lenovo ACPI kernel modules.

And this is even with 'official' support from Lenovo for Linux. I can only imagine how bad the experience will be for running Linux on Apple products for the coming years.
The name is an extension of '[user] story' - in literature, an epic is a collection of related stories (as in, The Epic of Gilgamesh), so they decided to call a collection of User Stories an Epic.
Thanks-- so more recently then. I agree about Plato and the common man, though I think a lot of that also came more from later interpretations by christeo platonists who espoused a sort dualism where spirit was good and matter was bad. But yeah, his idea of "philosopher kings" ruling over things doesn't really elevate then common man either, and that's without getting into criticism of the idea itself. I do like his way if talking out a problem with ever more precise questions disections and dissections if a problem, but it's a little too strong on pure reason and not enough on empiricism.

My own observations on the recent issues of authority are a little different though, viewing it as part of a longer trend. From my (limmited) perspective it seemed like before the power of the internet, Expertise ruled the day. When the internet really hit mainstream in the early 00's there began a great skepticism of experts, that there was no reason to regard their assessment any higher than another. And there's a little something to that since there's no inherent reason why a non expert can't understand something too. But then it seemed to go too far-- expertise is sort of just another way of saying someone has a lot of experience, which can provide a useful perspective. And citing authority is not always a fallacy of appeal to authority. But the push against expertise went too far, and people began discounting someone's point of view precisely because they were an expert if there was a disagreement rather than on the merits. I saw this play out in things like Wikipedia Talk pages about topics.

Now perhaps the pendulum is swinging back in the other direction again. I guess the hope is that at some point, at least for a while, it will stay in the middle for a while. As Aristotle liked to say: "The mean between extremes". I've always tried to keep that outlook-- skepticism towards most extremes. So it goes

Read your own damn paper. The exponential phase of a disease spread is at the very beginning when the total number of cases is small. The rate rapidly decays to a point of being mostly linear and continuing to drop off.

People think exponential is an accelerating rocket ship to 100% infected. It is not. It’s a decelerating trend likely to stall out well below 100%.

If the R factor increases from 1 to 2, over a LONG period, you would be wrong to expect exponentially more cases. You would probably see fewer than 2x the cases. You would see it expand much, much faster initially.

But both would see slow downs at similar inflection points.

The very first sentence of your own linked abstract:

> The INITIAL exponential growth rate of an epidemic is an important measure of the severeness of the epidemic, and is also closely related to the basic reproduction number. Estimating the growth rate from the epidemic curve can be a challenge, because of its DECAYS with time.

the long term model is not exponential. This really should be obvious, but you cannot create an accurate disease model that does not show the impact of population size. Pure exponential models are only relevant on a theoretical infinitely large population that is well and randomly mixed. When you establish that there’s only so many people, the growth rate has to decline, and not at 100% of the population. It stalls out well before that. Look into random graph models.
By Litte's Law, the arrival rate to the waiting room (l) is equal to the number of customers in the waiting room (L) divided by the amount of time a customer spends in the waiting room (W), ie., l = L/W. If the arrival rate to the post-injection waiting room is less than the throughput of the vaccination stations, then removing (or reducing) the waiting time after an injection is going to improve performance of the system.

I should have said velocity to clarify that people aren’t trying to go to the same place, again due to the diversity of preference.
It's not only that. They have the knowhow, and a top-notch engineering team. The iPhone processor were developed over the course of 15 years and grew organically to become the M1. Even if you consider other mobile processors on par with Apple's (they are not) - it will take years before they can be adapted to PCs. And as latest Intel efforts show us processors that were not designed with efficiency as a key target from the beginning cannot be easily modified to challenge the M1 either.

Even without TSMC Apple has all the cards - experience in state of the art chips, phones, tablets and PCs, from the silicon to the software, all in one company. They should do some serious slipups before someone has even a chance to challenge them.

The difference is largely semantic in the sense that you're still going "forwards" with a down migration, but the important bit is that by calling it a rollback you're accepting that the up migration won't be run again if you ever completely tear down the database and start again. Suggesting that you only ever go forwards implies that you'd run the incorrect migration and the fix for it again in the future,but you wouldn't. Calling it a rollback captures that information.
Yup, I've missed it somehow. I'm also a fan of approval and particularly star voting compared to IRV. It's good they're gaining ground.
> Sure, but semantic versioning really is the wrong kind of versioning to use for a language. The major version should represent major language changes, not whether its a breaking change or not

Major language changes almost implies breaking changes, like Python 2 to 3 was major changes that break things everything from how modules were changed, where they were, and some syntactic and fundamental changes as well.

> the code is not "equivalent" when it comes to refactoring and certain changes.

Yes, there are a very specific and limited set of changes you could make to the types here and not have to change this code. You can't replace `Result<>` with `Option<>` because of `map_err`. You could replace `Result<>` with something else that is very `Result<>`y, but your flexibility would be very limited if you didn't want to change the signatures of `with_some_error_handling_that_can_rescue` or `some_error_processing`.

I'm sure it's possible to contrive an example where this would help, but I don't believe that it would be that much of a help very often in practice. I think it's just a bit more monady and people who take the time to learn monads then want to apply that wherever they can.

I'm not saying that the combinators should never be used, but that each additional one you use increases the cognitive burden of reading your code. So the question becomes: which of the combinators are worth it.

I would argue that `.map_err()` is useful as it compliments the `?` operator. Hopefully with (and often without) `try!` blocks many of the other ones can go away. In particular I think that language constructs are almost always better than `.and_then()`.
Out of curiosity, how do transaction logs handle things like created_at fields, or randomly generated UUID, which rely on contextual data? Is the server time/rng seed faked for each replayed transaction?
I was trapped by a 'bug' that meant the verification code system was broke.

An open mind definitely, likely not the time to do it though. I've gone down similar rabbit holes for a number of related issues, and every single time what started as a disagreement with the scientific consensus in say, issue A, turned into a disagreement also with B, C, D, E, F and so on.

What remained was the disagreement with the scientific consensus. How likely is that?

If it's any helpful, that's my heuristic to spot valid criticism.

I agree that increasing efficiency has enormous potential, but consumers are almost certainly responsible for only a small share of overall energy consumption compared with industry and transport. We need to target our measures there, which implies adjusting incentives. We really should build pollution charges into the cost of electricity (“carbon pricing” if you’re talking to conservatives who balk at the “carbon tax” and the inverse for progressives who balk at markets); however, corporations won’t stand for that, and they effectively govern us over here in the United States. Moreover, this would also trickle down to consumers at least until industries respond by making their processes more efficient which would presumably drive public sentiment in favor of pollution (regrettably, I suspect we are a weak-willed people these days, but I’d be happy to be disproven).
There’s no rigorous academic evidence for this, but a lot of companies have been backporting typescript/mypy/sorbet onto existing dynamic codebases and the case studies have been overwhelmingly positive.

Not to be a buzzkill, but migration reports from any tech A to tech B are always overwhelmingly positive when the industry has a newlywed period with tech B. Save for a clear, undeniable failure the stakeholders will always claim success.
The techniques and tooling can be fit for both purposes but the telescope you build to look at something 250km away at high resolution and illuminated by the sun and the one you build to look at galaxies thousands of light years away that are fainter than can be seen with the naked eye are very very different.

Hubble's optics also weren't easy to produce and notoriously were faulty which had to be later corrected in orbit with a Shuttle mission. The bid being lower than expected could just as easily be explained by the contractor massively under bidding to win the contract. I've never heard anyone claim the Perkin-Elmer also made the optics for the KH series before now. Its not outside the realm of possibility but unless you have some compelling proof then I have no reason to believe that. I think the fact they screwed up indicates they probably weren't because if they had done the optics for the KH-11 series then they would have been well practiced at making mirrors that size by the time Hubble was built.
