Short term, it's a problem in the US, but long term, we have a lot of ways to trim some fat. Like those gigantic, deadly trucks that get used to ferry a kid to school or a dad to the office. Or re-legalize things like corner stores so people can walk or bike to do some of what they need on a day to day basis.
Not really, it feels like the US trying to help Ukraine get some planes but Poland doesn't want to give up its stuff so the US is promising more planes to replace the old Migs.
Governments make laws, and constituents vote to choose who is in the government. Companies can do neither.

Any company that takes on much higher costs than its competitors without getting some benefit in return will not be able to stay in business for long.

Now what benefits might you get by manufacturing in the US? Certainly, it could be good for marketing. And consumers, particularly those at the high end, might be willing to pay more for a product manufactured here. Apple has, in fact, tried to do this. Remember when they made a big deal about moving manufacturing of the Mac Pro to Texas in 2019 [1]? Unfortunately, this hasn't worked out as well as they'd hoped due to the expertise and supply chain issues that others have mentioned [2].

I love the fact that it comes with a "CMOC for Basic Programmers" manual.

I was an MLB.TV subscriber for a number of years, back when there were no blackout restrictions (or ads) in Canada. It was a really great service.

The thing I learned very quickly was that most local team broadcasts were orders of magnitude more entertaining than the "neutral" national broadcasts, even for a new fan learning the game. The great local broadcasters have the solid on-screen chemistry that only comes from doing 100+ games a year, and an actual point of view without being bald-faced homers. It's a lot more fun to watch.

The national broadcasts, on the other hand, seem to be aimed at people who hate watching baseball.

In a three game series, I'd watch the home team broadcast for game 1, the away team broadcast for game 2, and the better of the two for game 3. If a game was national broadcast I'd usually just skip it. In the playoffs, I always listened to the local team radio broadcasts synced up to the video.

In recent years MLB has experimented with broadcasting some games on Facebook and YouTube, and the result is always awful and hated by most fans. I don't expect the Apple TV+ version to be any different. It'll be baseball for people who don't want to watch baseball.

Anyway, MLB.TV turned to crap in Canada, so I no longer watch. MLB produces some great content, and then does everything in their power to prevent people from watching it.
Well, more reasonable than a mac pro, price wise. Might have to consider this when the time comes to replace my Ryzen9 rig.
...Wow.

That resonates hard with some stuff I'm seein' now.
I think circles were too tied to privacy. Public posts ended up mushed together just like twitter.

In reality though would you really want your games to be installed on the same machine as your daily driver?

Game companies and their parent companies tend to install some shady spyware on your machine in the name of "anti-cheat software" (ie, installed in the ring0/kernel space). I am kind of relieved that I have 2 separate machines.

Although if they develop virtualized environments to sandbox games from the host machine (similar to QEMU) then I suppose that might work.
The question is in relation to Apple's claim that it's "the world’s most powerful and capable chip for a personal computer".
marketing and a forgiving audience.

You have to remember that since the 2014 retina, Apple's offerings have been a bit crap.

This is a return to form ( and a good one at that) but its not worthy of hero worship. They've done a good job turning things around, which is very hard.
I generally agree, though I don't think the "saintliness" even matters. The queen as seen by the public is probably a persona, sure, but so long as the persona stays put, she's a symbol of stability, and that is the whole point of the monarchy.

This even shows up in tech - Bill Gates isn't exactly known for widespread political opinions, and while we all know he was probably not a great person early on, he's now generally contributing to universally approved causes, and otherwise just there, so to some extent he's a symbol of the possibilities available through tech.

Meanwhile, you've got Elon, who I think would be reasonably similar - if he could stay the hell off Twitter and stop overpromising so goddamn often. He could have ended up as a symbol for the commercial space revolution and the surge of EV popularity, but instead he's polarising and often hated.

Generally, polarisation isn't great for authority figures. Even in politics this is sort of true - relatively centrist parties often have broader appeal than extreme views. (Though because politicians are our means of changing things, there's also an aversion to politicians with no opinions at all.)

Your point is completely unclear. The vast majority of Google's money is coming from selling advertising.

Throwing more silicon at it, like this, sounds extremely expensive or price-inefficient.

It's at least two separate chips combined together. That makes more sense, mitigates the problem.

It took less than 6month to have a faster amd / intel CPU than the m1 back then, Apple charts are showing performance / watt which for a desktop PC is kind of irrelevant. In pure speed amd / intel are faster or will be very soon.

For graphic card I don't try to argue because fps on Mac are very inferior in games than a average modern card. It's not even on the same league.
But then why choose such a horrible sound to drown out the background? Why not something easier on the ear? Personally I find the noise so jarring and intolerable I'd be more distracted by it (even on a low volume) than whatever irritating noises I'm hearing in the background.
Just 140 PPI? Can’t be serious with that.

I have no idea how people can work with such low pixels density, really - I’ve tried and it's just impossible.
I thought that to extract peak performance out of NUMA based systems, you had to get down-and-dirty with memory access & locality to ensure you don’t cross sockets for data thats stored in RAM attached to other CPUs.

Or am I out of date on NUMA systems?
Price ceilings also have a way of doing that (by limiting production, which therefore limits consumption).
A close friend of mine is, well, gay (as in man gay), and he doesn't have the fondest opinion of lesbians. He's also quite critical about trans people. He does like other (especially beautiful) men a lot, so that gay part is definitely covered, he's not in the closet by any means or anything like that.

"They" said there would not be an iPhone 13 Mini either but they were obviously wrong there.
No, NATO has plenty of wiggle room to decide not to retaliate in order to prevent further escalation. And furthermore, you might see a flat out refusal to honor treaty obligations to avoid “the unthinkable”.

EDIT: and remember 1939. They can simply drag their feet on actual military retaliation until the immediate threat subsides. A Russian invasion of Poland is highly unlikely. It’s not an objective of theirs. And without the threat of an invasion that would directly threaten larger economic powers, is a conflict with Russia even rational? NATO will simply absorb the hit.
Nah. Lots of people I know have the a 2020 iPhone SE - both for its size and more importantly for the fingerprint reader. I have one and love it. I would consider the 13 mini - but I prefer fingerprint vs faceid.
As an American, I'll try to explain how our two parties (and their voters) work in practice.

The Left (voters) have two main platforms: economic and cultural.

The Right (voters) have two main platforms: economic and cultural.

The Left votes for the Democratic Party. The Right votes for the Republican Party. Independents mostly vote one way or another, and a small percentage vote for whoever seems most moderate that particular election.

When governing, the Democratic Party works with the Republican Party to implement:

1. The cultural platform of the Left.

2. The economic platform of the Right.

The cultural platform of the Right and the economic platform of the Left are not implemented.

The Left calls the Democratic-Republican Establishment the "corporate" party and believes the country has moved strongly to the Right over the last 40 years. (They are focusing on the fact that the economic platform of the Right is being implemented.)

The Right calls the Democratic-Republican Establishment the "uniparty" and believes the country has moved strongly to the Left over the last 40 years. (They are focusing on the fact that the cultural platform of the Left is being implemented.)

This is a stable political system because neither a Left voter nor a Right voter wants to vote for the other party, because then they wouldn't even be getting half of what they want! The Democratic-Republican Establishment doesn't care who people vote for, because it wins either way. The important thing is for voters to believe their vote matters—even though it actually doesn't.

The key result is that neither the Left's economic platform nor the Right's cultural platform are ever implemented. (A few legacy cultural issues on the Right, e.g. 2nd Amendment gun rights, still exist. Same with pre-WW2 economic issues on the Left.)

Hope this helps!

Something is seriously fishy about those geekbench results.

24-core scores 20k, 32-core scores 22.3k, and 64-core score 25k. Something isn't scaling there.
There's also determinism. I know that when I kick a ball it will go on a direction I want. Not always but most of the time and the more I do it the better I get. If it's an illusion, thats ok. I will live with it the rest of my life. It works for me.
Do you know of any gimmick, e.g. case that brings the button and its tactile feedback to 11,12,13?
You say it's easy to cool but that's actually not the case, for anybody that cares about noise. Any music studio is going to happily take the 60W over 200W because they record and monitor music and need the quietest machine possible in the room.

Unsurprisingly, it's called Mac Studio, as in music studio, or art studio, or what have you studio, where these things matter.

This is a machine aimed at content creators.
Agreed, I think they will use the 4C config to debut M2 and make a slash. They said in the keynote that M1 Ultra completes the M1 family. Timing works out well for November launch with the 2 year apple silicon transition timeline they gave themselves. Not sure what they are going to call it and if it will be A15 or A16 based.

A16 would give great performance, and I think it’s safe for them to have a two year iteration time on laptop/desktops vs one year for phone/tablet.
I did a short stint at Google and I saw this very thing. I think the one thing that’s a little bit different with Mandiant is that it’s largely a services organization. If they pigeonhole it as Google Cloud security then folks will bail very quickly. If they find a way to also extend it into their enterprise customer case as a value added service then I could see it being pretty interesting.
To take your first point one further, services like ours don't do anything to remove people's info from the dark web. Indeed, no one can, that's the entire premise of the dark web.

And there are some data sets that are inherently difficult to remove, e.g. public records, voter records, etc (as you pointed out). However, we often can get this type of data removed from the for-profit web sites that re-publish it and market it online. And we do remove the vast majority of information that's out there on individuals, dramatically reducing your surface area for discovery and attack. For example, many of the web sites that re-publish public records, usually only publish very limited amount of information, and lead to other sites that have much richer and more sensitive information like phone number, email address, age, home address, family members' names, etc.

Its very difficult to get everything removed, but if you can get rid of 99% of it, you can maintain a much lower profile and make it that much more difficult for someone that's trying to act against you. If a bad actor is just looking for a victim, they're more likely to move on to the next person that has done nothing to protect themselves.

Also, having a low profile might be a signal to bad actors that you take your privacy and security seriously, you have good security hygiene, and are likely to have other security mechanisms in place to protect you, and make their task more difficult, like identity theft protection, a home security system, a VPN, or even Multi-factor Authentication.
I don't think he's talking about something 77 years ago vs. now.

He want's to describe the association to the generalization. Eg. Nazi vs Germans. And Russians vs. 'Putin's Russians?'. I don't know how to describe it better.

The description of the problem at hand could have been better, but I do agree it's an issue.

I know the difference between the groups. But it could be confusing for someone else who is eg. Russian and they could feel offended.

Ugh, that does look bad. I didn’t realize it was on the side. Reminds me of the mouse with the charging port on the bottom.

If I owned one of these and had external speakers, I’d consider getting a basic USB audio adapter and using that so it’s out of sight. Bonus: it keeps your headphone jack free for actual headphones.
Should tha baker have the right to refuse baking a gay wedding cake or some group has the power to decide what rights another group has? As a gay man the LGBT groups keep declining in the quality of their fights and, having survived their own usefulness, they invent fights that inevitably clash with others liberties and belief. No, I do need that cake, there are other bakeries.
We don't make iPhones but there is this smart phone being made here.

https://puri.sm/products/librem-5-usa/

It is like 1000$ more expensive than the China version of the same phone. Could Apple and their volume get their price down? Probably but it is still going to be significantly more expensive.

If the US was desperate, we could maybe switch to this phone in an emergency?
The amount of compute paired with the shared memory and fast bandwidth would make this an awesome fit for machine learning. But for PyTorch, the framework everybody is using now at least in computer vision, there seems to be no support at all for the GPU or the neural cores (which the presentation went on and on about).

I guess I’d better not hold my breath about support there, given Apples historical stance on support third party APIs/frameworks?

In that case, wouldn't production in Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, and India REALLY ramp up to fill the vacuum? Especially over a longer timeline, the world will adjust. America will always find the cheapest place to acquire goods and services.

Among the best mental health decisions of my life is to get rid of Twitter from my everyday life. I still have an account (the only reason to delete it would be as a sign of protect, but I don't care, and Twitter doesn't care that I don't care). I do not visit the site on my own. There's just so much negativity, cruelty, and stupid thoughts. How can anyone post anything insightful, nuanced, and worth reading with such a character limit?

I realized that interesting tweets (or rather, Twitter threads) have a way of finding me through other means. That's the only time I visit Twitter.

I'm ok on missing out on ideas that do not find me through other means. The vomit to caviar ratio on Twitter is way too high.

How is this news? Apple has had the exact specs (27 in, 5K res) available since something like 5-7 years ago, both as a stand-alone monitor and as an iMac.
I would take a mini at the price point of the SE. At the current price it's simply too costly.
Depends on what you define "capable" as. Remember, they specify that it is the most powerful and capable chip, not necessarily complete system.

There's no other chip that has the power of an RTX 3090 and more power than an i9-12900K in it - after all, Threadripper doesn't have a lick of graphics power at all. This chip can do 18 8K video streams at once, which Threadripper would get demolished at.

I'm content with giving them the chip crown. Full system? Debatable.
it actually looks great on the LG 5k giving you 2880 pixels across and there's no significant performance hit w a M1 macbook air.
Seems disingenuous to not mention that most of that US oil (65%!) comes from environmentally destructive practices, which is a damn good reason to prefer imports.

Or, put simply: how much US oil comes from fracking? Not a small number - the aforementioned 65%. Source for this data: the U.S. government.

https://www.eia.gov/tools/faqs/faq.php?id=847&t=6

Remember, these aren't small amounts of water either. I live in California, where we have drought conditions. How much water do you think a typical well uses? "Up to 9.6 million gallons of water (!!!!) per well." For just one well!

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/analysis-fracking...

That whole sentence is worth quoting in full:

Oil and natural gas fracking, on average, uses more than 28 times the water it did 15 years ago, gulping up to 9.6 million gallons of water per well and putting farming and drinking sources at risk in arid states, especially during drought.

So, here's the thing. The "cost" of that water in the market is just the cost in dollars. But to Americans, and future generations? It's much higher. You can throw a stone at a US map and hit a state that's experiencing drought conditions right now (and that well water is permanently off limits for drinking).

If we can slash the real cost - the externality cost - by just buying it from elsewhere, we should. And we do. And that's the right choice, despite what NASDAQ thinks.
I’m signed up for this service and while I am generally satisfied, they have placed some of the most common websites in their most expensive tier. If I contact their customer service, they write back with a condescending tone.
Russia's GDP is like Spain's with (going by memory) 4-5 times the population.
I really wonder whether any of the political establishment even has a clue as to the political makeup of the Independents.

The two-party system keeps dominating all the news cycles, so it’s got to be pretty difficult for all of the marketing analytics companies to keep up with the noise.
Exactly, trade tends to build trust and good relations (or at least respectful relations) so it's a good Net-Net thing. However, if in stressful times like war the government can pretty easily enact tariffs and even dictates that all domestic production stays here. That is of course for only emergency conditions.
Buk and S300/S400 are different things. Buk is self propelled all-in-one system, which has four rockets and integrated radar [1]. Buk's rockets range is about 50km. While S300/S400 have mich bigger rockets thus range, 300 and 400km respectively [2].

I never understood why Twitter has a character limit. It reduces discussion to tiny empty soundbites. People get around it via "Twitter threads", which are a giant pain in the ass to create (vs. writing a simple post) and navigate through.

Does Twitter just hold on to the character limit for nostalgia purposes? I mean if they really wanted to keep that limit, at the least why not create a separate Twitter without a character limit as an experiment, and see what the demand is?
This was very easy. I skipped the text based ones, I can't keep up with the random things politicians say :)

Yes. The color and the smell vary a lot. Venezuela and Canada sell a heavy crude that is basically roofing tar. Some spots in west Texas and Malaysia produce something close enough to diesel to just put in your truck and go with no refining.
