This article or ones like it are, IMHO, long overdue. There is a bias online for people who are always online. It sounds obvious but "tech" companies and people online ignore or have a blind spot for people who remain offline. "Tech" companies and avid internet users generally see the world through their computers. If something is not represented online, then it is unlikely to register with them as being relevant. For example, as alluded to this by this Axios article, the opinions of people who do not express their opinions online.

It is rare to find someone online advising readers to ditch their pocket computers and disconnect their laptops. It would be like a newspaper pre-internet advising readers to stop buying newspapers. Therefore, everything read online must be weighed against this self-serving bias. Web traffic is the lifeblood of Google, Facebook and their ilk. If people go offline, the losses would be substantial. The civilised world can survive offline, as it did when many of us were born, and for centuries before, but Big Tech and their wannabes cannot. This is because, generally, they are only internediaries (middlemen). They sit on a computer network, observe and manipulate traffic of the people who use it. These companies want people online 24/7. As the article states only a minority of people have complied. Contrary to the title, this offline majority is neither new nor silent.
Oh I totally agree. Despite Saturn eventually failing the fixed pricing was extremely popular the whole time it was offered (can’t remember if they gave up). I’d be happy to have it with my next car.
I have to say, as someone that clicked this link that I found a few things you might want to consider before plugging again:

1. No disclaimer that you are involved with the site
2. Maybe talk about something other than furries in the room that you link
3. Maybe link to a landing page with more info on how to...do anything other than talk about furries?

Just my 2¢.
I have the 5K LG monitors, they have camera and mic.

Unless you live in windows ONLY, start with wgpu (a Rust library that supports WebGPU). It'll work with Metal/Vulkan/Web.

WebGPU is very similar to Vulkan, near a 1:1 in concepts. A lot of the new libraries (Metal, DirectX) are similar in fact, so learning WebGPU will get you extremely prepared for any of those.

The chassis seems to be around the right size for a DIY project of combining it with an iMac G4 swivel display [1].

With a modern display it would make for a really nice 3rd party accessory.

This is essentially what I've been doing. Spotify is usually decent enough when it comes to recommending new artists based on what I'm listening. When I find an artist whose work I plan on listening on a regular basis, I'll jump to Bandcamp or some other site where I can buy the song or album I'm interested in.

Sadly, the list of such sites seems to be shrinking with every passing year, and I've found many artists I'd like to support by buying their stuff, but they only offer streaming options. I've noticed it happens more frequently with artists that have been scooped up by a major label or one of its subsidiaries, unsurprisingly.
Under news stories like this, it's worth remembering that actions have consequences and high level political decisions matter.

Remember that Trump was impeached for threatening to cut off military aid to Ukraine in exchange for a personal favor. The very same military aid that has likely prevented the outright capture Ukraine by Russia.

This is why I personally built a home media server. Lapsing licensing agreements, older content, escalating streaming subscription costs, etc all led me to it. The secondary effect of being able to consume the content without depending on anything other than electricity is an additional benefit.

>> You mean if gaming supported Apple more, right?

I can tell you from long experience-- more than 20 years ago I produced a Mac games with Apple's financing and as recently as five years ago I produced a game that sold over $100m on an Apple device-- Apple has been extremely consistent in their attitude. They are much less supportive of gaming then Microsoft or Sony. Part of it is that they see games as a lesser use of their devices over other use cases. Another part is that they consistently promote the kind of experiences they wish their customers wanted over the experiences their customers choose.

You have your thumb on the scale and are subjecting GitHub to the more lenient half of a double standard. Just like lots of software that gets billed as working with "a single click" even though it doesn't[1], there's lots more to it than you're saying here. Go do a sober and objective measurement of how involved GitHub actually is, including scenarios for "I don't have an account yet", "I have an account, but I haven't forked/changed/committed my contributions yet", "I have cloned the original repo to my computer and committed the last few days of my work and need to submit my changes now", and "I need to maintain my privacy from casual snooping and to protect myself from people who would be casually willing to hurt me"[2].

And I'm continually astounded whenever I bring up any GitHub criticism and get in response folks so hurried to try and "but Hillary!" me while leaping to the conclusion that I like mailing lists—even here in this case where I deliberately took special effort to start off by outright saying they suck. Let me be emphatic (again): mailing lists _really_ suck.

> This workflow inefficiency is multiplied by the number of patches you have

On the topic of things that suck: Git's CLI. Having said that, I'm not going to lie about it being worse than it is. You've moved your thumb off the scale. You're now saying things that aren't true.

Git's native workflows should be better. So should GitHub's.

> There is no good reason for it other than nostalgia for the old days of Unix

Go nerd-strawman someone else. I'm not Drew DeVault. I'm not the easily-take-downable bogeyman that, for your own convenience, you wish you were engaging with. I'm saying GitHub sucks because it does.

(As further data points: it's been only since, like, sometime after COVID lockdowns began that GitHub's site was finally fixed so that when you visit on mobile now, you don't get a horizontal scrollbar anymore. And this is the pre-eminent, tech-oriented platform that people can't stand to see being heralded as anything other than the thing that makes doing technical work feel like normal and approachable for normal people? Their "wikis" aren't even wikis, for fuck's sake.)

> Guessing a lot of bars are going to find alternate Friday night programming

Do you mean that they will be showing baseball (because people can't watch it at home) or won't be showing baseball (because they won't buy Apple TV+)?

$4.99/mo isn't really an interesting amount for a bar to pay to get access to Friday night games. If they need a public performance license (depending on the size of their space or the size of their TVs), they'll be paying a lot more than that.

If anything, I'd think that bars would welcome this if it means more people coming to the bar to watch the game. If the bar can pay $5/mo and people come because they don't want to individually pay $5, that's a huge win for the bar. People come and drop a lot more than $5 on beer/food/snacks.
> The primary revenue model for search is micro auctions to determine ranking of product placement on search results.

Google monetizes search with ads. The micro auctions are for those ads. They even say "Ad" on each of them.

If you have evidence that they're doing paid placement in the actual search results, I'd love to see it.

FWIW, I do wish Google's ads were more obviously visually distinct from search results (and fewer in number).

I've been told in training at every retail store that I've worked for not to attempt to stop shoplifters. Because the cost of the goods is less than the cost of a dead employee. It's pretty damn dangerous to square off with someone when you don't know if they're armed or what they're willing to do if they're caught.

I think it's important to distinguish between opinion and false information.

It's very important to have different opinions represented across all different kind of media, but the opinion should be based on facts or make it very clear that there's not enough evidence in case of speculative posts.

RT, however, actively and knowingly publish false information and opinions based on false information, as ordered by the kremlin. This is dangerous because people can then build their own opinion (or adopt) based on false information.
> right and wrong (well outside real moral issues)

Even moral issues don't have objective right and wrong. The idea that there are base moral facts is ridiculous, and without fully understanding each others priors arguments about ethics are rarely productive.

Your not wrong, but we sort of did. Road infrastructure gets the funding. We need to nationalize our train infrastructure. And change our zoning laws to prioritize rail freight instead of trucks.

The amount of land saved from this alone would be huge. Trains are also just way more energy efficient

In a previous Apple press release[1] they said:

> The Mac is now one year into its two-year transition to Apple silicon, and M1 Pro and M1 Max represent another huge step forward. These are the most powerful and capable chips Apple has ever created, and together with M1, they form a family of chips that lead the industry in performance, custom technologies, and power efficiency.

I think it is just as likely that they mean "completes the family [as it stands today]" as they do "completes the family [permanently]."

Nothing can be done, because the system is owned by the corrupt, which means that the system is corrupt.

The only solution against this problem is violence. Despite what a lot of completely delusional and clueless morons believe, voting solves nothing as long as all parties are basically run by rich people and or paid career politicians.

And I'm not even going to dive into the details. They're not necessary. You have not just the politicians against you, you also have the media against you, which means that you have most people against you.

Unless you manage to get people to realize what's going on, things will only change when those in charge want things to change.

Then it'll happen on their terms, they will provide solutions to problems they created and we all are going to pay for it.
Yeah, this was my thought as well.

How is this not propaganda if these news source have a side and put much more positive news for one side than the other?

Donbass is being shelled for 8 years. UN recognizes more than 10,000 deaths in the conflict there. The few journalists that interviewed people there got some interviews that really describes war crimes (watched recently an italian documentary that collected testimonialsthere). Which is not surprising, since neonazi groups were integrated to Ukranian army. You may dispute that this should be classified as genocide, but there are human rights violations happening there and this is not just Russia propaganda.
Nice machine, but for all the lip service to sustainability and environmental friendliness, the insistence of soldering everything in makes for a disposable device. In particular, once the SSD goes, it’s just a very expensive brick.

for high brightness high CRI, I build lamps of out of Bridgelux modules. where 'building a lamp' generally means 'screwing the module to a heatsink'. they are pretty cheap ($14 at digikey for a 30W module) last quite a long time if you cool them properly. you do have to hook them up to an appropriate constant current power supply which does involve some familiarity with what current and voltage are.

I readily admit that's too DYI for most consumers, but the market is really only doing a good job of pumping out LED bulbs that fit into standard sockets and have dubious and variable light quality. you kind of just have to buy of bunch of them and throw out 80% for being too harsh, or too green, or simply failing.

we could have better standards (mechanical, electrical) that accommodate the technology shift. we could have more useful and flexible product lines that rethink the way we distribute power for lighting. the dimmer situation is nightmarish for consumers - dimming LEDs is trivial, but the consumer definition of dimmer is 'triac AC chopper' by default - not because they chose that

why isn't consumer capitalism fixing this? this is supposed to be what its best at.
Would 80% of "the desktop market"—whatever that means—care about Ice Lake to begin with, or any high end chip at all?
That Mac Pro probably won't include a new chip though since they said "one last chip" when presenting M1 Ultra. So no more than 128gb of HBM, but maybe there will be some kind of DIMM support?
M1 mini with 16GB RAM (most possible RAM): $1100

entry studio: $2000

That's a pretty big gap. Basically it means you have to shell out $2000+ if you want to do video editing on any M1 mac. Buying a brand new computer to do video editing that has only 16GB RAM in 2022 is unjustifiable.

$2k+ is too much for most people especially young "creatives" that are making entertainment (videos). Lots of people here make hundreds of thousands a year but none of those people make that money doing video editing or working in entertainment.

Oh got it, I should outline more of the problem we faced.

We had a high throughput server that needed a fair amount of in memory data to service the requests. The in memory data would update, one set of the data would update very quickly while the larger data set would update slowly.

Two things on this:
1) Ruby is not concurrent, it is multi-threaded but not concurrent. When ruby starts up you generally create a new process per CPU to ensure you can utilize all cpus. This is generally fine for a CRUD app but does not work well if you really need to share in memory data structures in a low latency way, it will result in any changes to memory being repeated for each process, so a 32 core machine is 1/32 as efficient with memory.
2) Ruby, at least at the time, had a non-compacting garage collector. This over time leads to memory fragmentation which ends up causing ruby to run out of pages, as such you run out of ram. This mean with Ruby you have to be careful if you get closer to the limit of how much ram you have on a machine and you are allocating/freeing large spans of memory, if freeing memory doesn't free the page you can still run out of memory. This appears as a memory leak for the machine but ruby appears to still just be using the same amount of memory. Only fix for this is having rolling restarts. Java using a compacting garage collector, which can help alleviate this issue, of course it does come with some pauses.

I also found the ruby schedule is not pre-emptive. This might have changed but at the time it meant if you had a lot of threads that were waiting on external IO that the ruby machine's performance deteriorated. Java's scheduled appeared to be more performant. Looking at this post makes me realize I should turn this into a blog post with links to the actual numbers to demonstrate each issue clearly.
As for (1): obviously yes it does produce meaning. Otherwise I wouldn’t have said it. I don’t know why meaning should obey the formula you give.

I get that you lose screen real estate with bringing back the home button but I think it's the right call.
