I wish they just include a modern Touch ID in their latest phones that's what keeps me away from the latest and almost greatest. Love to have a better camera but it's Touch ID or nothing!

I bought the X and loathed the unlock UX especially if you ever might need to use your phone in the car.
It's certainly not the sole determinant of performance but given two reasonably solid designs, one with a vastly larger transistor budget and major node advantage to boot, I know which one I'd pick as likely winner.
Call them out on Twitter, they'll reply. Be aware much of their team is in the Ukraine, so expect some potentially belated replies.
I wish we could go back to that. Personally I find most weed I smoke these days to be way way too strong.
While you might attribute this to them being terrible wastes of humanity. I'd suggest it's probably no specific flaw on the Russian people besides their indiscriminate exposure to brainwashing state propaganda.

I have a hard time blaming people for doing exactly what their environment programs them to.
For anyone interested in further discussion of this topic, I highly recommend "Imperialism, the Highest Stage of Capitalism" by Lenin (1917).
> It posits a voting requirement, in the individual's willingness to sacrifice themselves for the good of all

No. It requires being soldiers and equates being soldiers to individual willingness to sacrifice himself for the good. Unwuestioningly assuming those are the same ... and also that self sacrifice should be requires.

Those are fascist ideas, really. And here you are defending them, equating the system describe by the book with what book defends.

Because, the book is written from the point on view of fan and contain no other point of view.

Poland learned how to deal with weasel US diplomacy. Nothing is set in stone, not even a signed piece of paper (Budapest Memorandum anyone?). Actions, not words matter.

When you read https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/biden-admin-talks-polan...

>The Biden administration is holding talks with Poland about a possible deal to help provide Soviet-era fighter jets to Ukraine, a White House spokesperson said.

>The deal would involve Poland donating its old Russian-made MiG fighters to Ukraine, and then replacing them with the purchase of U.S.-made F-16 jets.

>“We are working with the Poles on this issue and consulting with the rest of our NATO allies,” a White House spokesperson said.

>Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Sunday confirmed that the discussions are underway but said the timing is still unclear.

and at the same time those very "talks" are Blinken merely suggesting the possibility of working something later down the road "but we must act now", and you already got screwed by US to the tune of $10B on military deals (initial F-16 purchase), then you know to tread carefully.

Not to mention surprised pikachu face https://mobile.twitter.com/ak_mack/status/150129250400772096...

>Undersecretary of State Toria Nuland, testifying before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, just said this statement was not pre-consulted with the U.S. Seems to have come as a bit of a surprise."

So Biden officials leak "advanced talks" to the press while Undersecretary of State doesnt know anything about it and is not in the loop.

EDIT: And there it is https://www.defense.gov/News/Releases/Release/Article/296018... here come the weasel words:

"We will continue consulting with our Allies and partners about our ongoing security assistance to Ukraine, because, in fact, Poland's proposal shows just some of the complexities this issue presents.

We will continue to consult with Poland and our other NATO allies about this issue and the difficult logistical challenges it presents, but we do not believe Poland's proposal is a tenable one."

Typical US goading others to do the dirty work, but when push comes to shove "its complicated and untenable"

This has been disproven so many times, it is tiring to even try. Small amount, dispersed over huge distances. Current measurements indicate NO more lead in the blood of people near airports than not.

Yeah, this rounded metallic chassis was in a lot of older iPhones. I think they might use their old inventory to produce these budget phones.
> Poland is next on the Putin list after Ukraine, right there with Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania.

I would guess Moldova, considering that it's not a NATO member and Russia already has a presence as peacekeepers protecting the breakaway province of Transnistria. And Moldova is closer to the Balkan countries that Russia is keen on.

Thats sounding more like being an Apple apologist. And there are certainly other uses of graphics without using PS or InDesign involved e.g Meshlab 3D renders, computer graphics & raytracing where more RAM definitely counts. Upselling the Studio definitely hits the academic bracket (mine) hard, when it was perfectly possible to just introduce M1 variants, with its advantage of ports & more RAM. That sort of upgrade would have cost ~$1500 theoretically given Apple component listing, which is still 25% cheaper than baseline Mac Studio.

(For students looking to upgrade, $400 is a month's rent saved)
Yes I noticed this, it seemed utterly bizarre.

I really struggle to watch Apple’s events these days. As slick as the production is, they’re almost becoming parodies of themselves.
But it's still impossible to replace RTX 3090 with this new Mac Studio because games just will not run on MacOS.
> Yet, that didn't make us ease sanctions significantly. Did it?

One could equally flip that. Did famines and sanctions make them our allies? No, it hasn't.
That is a great question, and it has stumped a lot of people. Some people regard it as proof that economic laws are different now.

My take on it is that it's like physics - if you conduct an experiment and determine that the laws of physics don't apply, you've either made a mistake or our understanding of physics is all wrong. Which is much more likely?

My take on the 2009-2021 not causing huge inflation is there was something else going on. Two possibilities:

1. quantitative easing deferred the inflation to the future. There's been a lot of talk in the last few months about it putting the whole financial system onto another precipice.

2. That it did cause inflation - it's just that it compensated for massive deflation caused by the banking collapses.

Or maybe the 25% inflation we see today is just a delayed effect.

(Yes, I know the official rate is 7.5%. But everything I buy seems to have gone up 25%.)

Excercise is great for overall fitness but it really does nothing for weight loss. This has been shown over and over.
No, "they" didn't. An iPhone 13 mini was rumored ten days before the iPhone 12 was revealed [1] (see also in that same rumor the 2022 SE 3 launch). There were rumors through out following year that Apple was still going to have 13 mini even with poor sales of the 12 mini [2].

The same people are saying that the mini is toast for the iPhone 14. It's gone. Maybe Tim Cook will do his Tim Cook thing and reuse the mini form factor as the next SE for the next half decade, but I wouldn't bet on it.

Currently using the original SE and I'm quite happy with it; as a device it still performs decently too. I don't need more than that for my use so I'm going to hold onto it till it dies out. One issue I've had with the small size is that a lot of websites are not rendering properly with this screen size and make the assumption that my phone's size is larger. It's not the device's problem the websites are broken but it's quite telling that the whole industry moved on to phablets.

A teenager nephew saw my SE recently and he held himself from laughing at it. I take pride in using an old phone.

Putin is not thinking about the USSR. He's not a communist and he is not interested in a soviet union.

He is thinking about the pre-Tsarist Russian Empire. Which included a few countries that were not in the USSR.
What level of behavior counts as “performative social justice” to you?

I ask as my workplace would probably be stereotyped at first glance as a place like that but the only extra effort I had to put in was listing my pronouns in my company profile which isn’t really a burden. I had more performative social justice work thrown at me at stodgy old corporations where they’d file you in for day long seminars a few times a year talking about the regular social justice points while the entire leadership team was white guys who got to skip the seminars
Yes. This is a perfect argument why society needs government regulations.

Without sanctions, corporations could be competing over who would supply the Russian army with uniforms if the ROI was there.
Fanta, the brand name was invented during WWII.

Fanta, the original recipe, is not the modern orange soda, but was rather a soda cobbled together from fruit scraps and whatever else was available in a severely rationed Germany. The original recipe was discontinued in 1945 and the orange soda launched in 1955. I don’t think anyone could find original-recipe Fanta.
The right thing for the environment maybe, but it would be an extremely regressive tax, regardless of how it's advertised.
Not the modern version. Just the name.
On the JVM, maven doesn’t make this particularly easy.

It’s possible to try to store dependencies locally instead of shared in a global m2 repository, but it’s difficult to stop maven from adding the current time in jars or wars…

It’s as if all the default settings are the opposite of what they should be for reproducible builds.

Any idea if there is a project to try to improve things with maven or with another JVM tool? (Grade, sbt, etc.)
Apple's market share has always been a small slice of the overall PC market.

Small is doing a lot of work in that sentence.

Apple sold nearly $11 billion worth of Macs last quarter. Once you get out of the HN echo chamber and enterprise IT circles, Macs are quite popular.

In a way, they never did "mass market".

Having an Apple Store within a 20 minute drive of 80% of the American public counts as mass market [1]. Haven't been lately because pandemic but my local Apple Stores were always packed with people. And of course there's a Best Buy, Micro Center and other regional retailers that sell Macs in places with no Apple Stores.

It's not just prosumers; it's normies who just want a good computer made by a company they've heard of and trust vs. a cheap plastic 3rd tier PC from a manufacturer they're vaguely familiar with. I've been involved in user groups since the 80's; trust me, most Mac users are just regular people—not music producers and cinematographers.

An M1 Mac mini, which certainly outperforms most PCs in it's price class. The retail price starts at $699 but is available for significantly less via 3rd parties like Amazon.

If you think of the market segment as "non-plastic computers that don't suck", Apple is doing quite well. And now that Apple Silicon performance continues to outpace the industry as a whole, this will continue.

The other segment is the "I like nice things" crowd. They aren't price sensitive; they just like nice things and Macs have that in spades compared to the vast majority of PCs.

> Politics is a dirty but necessary business, and for many of us it’s far better to keep parties at arm’s length.

Studies of voting behavior pretty consistently show that self-identified independents are, on average, either equally or very nearly equally reliably partisan in voting as those who identify with one major party or the other.
> In the sense that 1 joule of electrical energy is inherently more valuable than 1 joule of thermal energy. A current commercial nuclear reactor requires 3 units of the latter to produce 1 unit of the former.

When people are talking about 1 GW nuclear reactor, they mean that reactor is generating 1 GW of electricity, so that the reactor is in fact >3 GW thermal. Nobody is comparing electricity from renewables to thermal energy from nuclear.

In fact, this actually makes nuclear superior: you can use the waste 2 GW of heat to run district heating in nearby located cities. Pretty popular in Europe, though with coal/gas plants. There is no similar useful byproduct to solar/wind.

I think your experience has been a constant of most Apple products for the last 22 years or so. Some people have no issues ever, some people have constant issues all the time. That said, I loved the Cinema displays and they did have a good track record, but if memory serves, the Thunderbolt Display variant was notoriously flaky [0]. Since they've put out so few external displays, it does stain their reputation a bit.

The original SE was 2016. 2020 was the first update.
All of the women in my life that I can think of have larger phones, often the plus sized models. They tend to use some form of a popsocket to make it manageable.

This could very well be the reality of the phone market for women without trying to unmask anyone making the observation as sexist. Seems like you read their comment as a prescription of how things ought to be.

I'm not sure what the fuss is about though. The people doing the market research have decided offer two small options in the current iPhone generation, so there's clearly a market for it whether that's women driving that market or not. There are all sorts of reasons anyone might want a smaller phone. I own a 13 mini myself and I'm a big guy.
For a smooth transition, you need to "make before break". If we take away people's cars overnight, then people will be stranded with no way to buy food or earn income. (Raising prices on gasoline is a slower means of effecting change, but people don't have the opportunity to just throw away their home and home equity to move somewhere with public transportation. This just makes people miserable; it doesn't help them out of their miserable situation.) We can't undo 100 years of terrible urban planning with one stroke of the pen.
This bike is designed around removing the seat post so I wouldn't apply rules for other bikes here.

Anecdotally, I have never dropped my seat post even when stuffing a bike in the trunk and neither have my riding partners and a lot of us have carbon seat posts now so we don't grease them. Most of us are simply too iffy to mess with our riding configuration. I'm also sure professional bike fitters wouldn't use a solution that would inconvenience most of their customers. This urban frame lock bike is a very special case and should be treated as such.
I don’t think so - my impression is that it’s feed algorithms pushing the most incendiary topics to people because they get the most engagement.

Nothing gets people going like someone saying something divisive or controversial after all.

So pretty soon most of the feed is divisive bullshit.
>There's limits to how much they'll delete

Yes it's a huge problem. Many of us (or maybe just me?) would not have been so candid on HN had we known our comments would be indelibly preserved forever with no option for deletion.

The stated reasons for this policy I've seen from 'dang amount to "we don't like the look of a bunch of comment chains with [deleted] everywhere" which I find insulting.

I have a suspicion that the real reason is that the site software conveniently doesn't have a mass-deletion function.
Ok, yes - i remember them being fined and they did pay for my battery replacement; So, i assumed it was an admission of guilt.

> Blame Putin for Putin's war. If you don't like suffering for one man's tantrum -- call the Kremlin.

This reminds me how people in Soviet Union wrote letters to Stalin to describe injustices and how much they love him because he is the best possible leader they could have. Putin isn't Stalin yet, but the Russian people are waiting patiently for him to become one.

Don't forget the part about "gives them more performance" which is just an overt lie. They use it because aviation is regulated to high heaven and there are no approved alternatives yet.
Razor sharp analysis, well done.

From my European perspective, I've always considered the Democrats to be a right wing party. Things implemented in other advanced economies decades ago, the very basics of progressive policy, are just nowhere to be seen: a livable minimum wage, universal healthcare, affordable schooling, employment protection, the like.

In other countries, this isn't even called progressive, just "basics". Not even right wing parties try to abolish or undo this foundation.

We do see that media is far more left than the actual population, which is typically center to center-right. The way I see it, the population of almost any developed country is center-right. It makes sense when you think about it. Due to the population pyramid, most people are middle-aged or older. They're already planning for the exit so they want to protect whatever they got. No funny stuff.

The young want to change everything but that's easy when you have no responsibilities or stake in the game. As soon as they acquire the basics of life, they'll join the rest, and try to protect it.

That is the gigantic failure of the left, the inability to connect with the vast majority of the population. Here in Europe, the left has abandoned the (white) working class somewhere in the late nineties, and they've been failing ever since.
Part of Apple's historic MO has been to not invest in areas they don't see themselves having a competitive advantage in. Now that they can make gaming happen with a very low wattage budget they may well try to enter that space in earnest.
Getting rid of the Russian interference forever would be still pay back. We must remember that Germany was fully destroyed to rubble also and now is the largest economy in the EU.

I’m confused by this, isn’t one of the mains points of uring is that it’s faster?
> you'd have to assume that the giant corporations suddenly decided to crank the greed knob in lockstep with a massive amount of money being printed in the last two years

No need to assume that, they're perfectly capable of all independently noticing the rise in headlines mentioning inflation and independently choosing to use it as a cover for price gouging.
Blaming "crony" capitalism implies the issue is too much regulation, not too little. Since I'm asserting that most of the issues stem from the period of deregulation following Reagan, that's clearly at very different conclusion.

Short-sighted pursuit of profit is a failure mode inherent in capitalism in general, no cronyism required.

For a while, I resolved "OK, if anyone retweets this stuff, I will simply unfollow them"

You can also turn off retweets for those people. Twitter does seem to have some idiotic take on what I want to see.
I only did 12 of them before exiting but got 100% of them. I watched them on my phone without turning it landscape to simulate how I'd normally watch a brief news clip like this.

They're still not particularly convincing, especially the audio ones sound very fake.

But I think these sorts of tests are flawed. The fact that it's a test primes you to look for these details in a way you might not if these clips were shared on Twitter/Reddit/etc. The deepfakes are still pretty obviously fake, so I don't think I'd fall for one "in the wild". But I also see this style of test used for things like "can you hear the difference between these 2 audio compression formats" or "does this virtual guitar amp sound just like the real thing", and that's just not how you consume real media. For example I'd probably never know Meshuggah switched to entirely digital guitar amps years ago if it weren't for them saying it in interviews.

When deepfakes one day do get as close to the real thing as digital guitar amps have gotten to real amps, I doubt I'd notice a random r/worldnews post is faked, even if I could still reliably pass an A/B test.
If the prodisplay xdr is anything to go by, you wouldn't. That could only connect to PC's with thunderbolt, but because the monitor controls were built into macOS, you couldn't change any settings or use it at its native resolution.
This (the various types of crude) is not the real reason, based on what I read before. The US is a major (biggest?) exporter of refined oil products. I think even western Europe gets a significant portion of refined product from the US. There is simply a lot of capacity, built in the 2010s. So the imports of crude are used for refining.
It's not a question of the validity of either military action. It's just that for many years people have called for product boycotts in the case it Israel and the common response was based on boycotts having no impact for various reasons.
