My 2017 MBP is getting very tired now, and after getting a taste of what a real machine is capable of since working from home, I've realised how much time I've wasted waiting for builds and whatnot.

The laptop form factor doesn't do anything for me any more either, and I want to jump straight onto a Mini or Studio (who's price is similar to what my MBP originally cost), but I feel like it's a blind jump without knowing if all my development tools are going to work.

Apple's relationship with backwards compatibility has always been poor, and Catalina's 32bit removal - even though I delayed by update for a year - still hurt. Tools that I used wouldn't get 64bit updates for another few months.

I am concerned that Rosetta won't be around forever, and I use tools today that one might regard as abandonware - they'll never get arm64 versions. I do sometimes use and Linux and Windows VM's as well, VirtualBox doesn't support M1 yet and Apple have some new poorly supported virtualisation framework

So, for anyone in a similar situation:
1) What kind of codgy old tools do/don't work?
2) What VM software do you use? Does it have USB passthrough? How does it compare with VirtualBox's more advanced features?
Is "better off [economically]" you're guide on ethical labor practices? I don't want to read too much into your comment, but that is the implication, in which case any labor practice can be justified so long as someone is willing to do it. That's a rather extreme view.
Good that you are liking firefox. But i feel mozilla does not have same principles now a days. Or maybe their marketshare has made them desperate.

I exclusively use Edge on mobile and Mac, it is great, support adblock on mobile and better privacy than chrome.
There just isn’t much software that works on Big Sur but not Monterey, if any. It’s not like a windows 95 to XP update. With yearly OS releases, the ecosystem is somewhat more up-to-date and resilient to typical changes.
Maybe they can include these features in a premium service, and call it... Google+?
That's nim[0], not zig

You just made me conscious on my initial choice for an invoices ingest app, so I might end up looking somewhere else: you are totally right, it takes ages to load a moderatively simple layout, not even taking into account a single XHR request.
(Not affiliated with Warp but care about this particular thing)

Shell scripts implies, well, a particular shell. If everyone is on similar OSes, maybe that works for you, but as a Windows user, "pile of bash scripts" might as well be "doesn't work for you." I use a terminal for my daily work, but don't have bash installed on my machine.

That said, I haven't tried Warp yet specifically because it's Mac-only right now. Even within that context, Warp integrates with Bash, Zsh, or Fish, which do have their own extensions to POSIX shell, but at least you can rely on Bash being installed.
In this case, it was actually a feature, not a product.

Agreed on shop pay which also comes with the rest of the store. Even Bolt has the whole checkout flow at least
I give credit to lots of people for what they do without thinking only they are the only ones who could do it.
Since you didn't seem to notice the username: you are replying to a person who developed a search engine alone. (So be prepared to applaud.)
Does what I think of free speech matter in this conversation or does what musk thinks matters? He talks about censoring as a violation of free speech and then engages in the same sort of behavior when he does things like canceling the Tesla order of a reporter who said things he doesn’t like.

He’s an inconsistent hypocrite and there’s zero evidence that’s been presented to make me believe this move is coming from a sincerely held belief that isn’t “what’s best for Elon is the right thing”

Edit: fixed autocorrect of “and” back to “an”
Twitter doesn't have "free speech policies". It has moderation policies. They're not enforced evenly, but no platform has solved this.
Vim supports multiline editing and I'd imagine emacs does as well.
In bash/zsh, <ctrl-x ctrl-e> opens up $EDITOR so you can use whatever you're accustomed to anyhow.

Most of these features are already available if one spends a bit of time configuring their terminal/shell.

Same. I switched to it for a day just to give it a try and I never switched back. Absolutely willing to pay if the quality stays the same.
> from a developers perspective, all of the work is clearly valuable, I mean they got paid 300k+

Midwestern US salary caps are more like $90k-$150k.
None of the examples explained here impress me (with maybe the exception of Goggles by brave search).

- The first example is not much more than Google with a styling chrome extension

- The second doesnt bring anything more than Google when you are searching about webcontent. Some ideas on filters are interesting but this is not user friendly

- You is powered by AI, so it is basicaly giving not what you want except when you ask for the general case (the case Google works pretty well for)

- Andi is a chatbot. Which is basically Google + only the first answer

Brave Search Goggles, (what most people call collections, what Pinterest calls a board, what Twitter call List) is for me what is going to be the real innovation of search Engine. They are a way to bring collaboration to enrich content, but nobody has cracked the UX to make it work yet
> A fork implies that the projects are going diverge,

...which is exactly what you're doing when you branch off a release branch and start applying your own commits with no plan to merge them back to mainline.

> which it seems they don't want to happen.

They are already doing it. They are only arguing that they can reapply the same patches over the next release branch, but that doesn't really change anything.
they’ll have a business offering which lets people collaborate
Context: currently at a FAANG, worked for startups in the past

The only way to answer the question is to generalize. There will always be individual exceptions. The pros and cons below mainly apply to engineers who only have experience in one or the other. They are personal observations and definitely do not represent _all_ engineers:

FAANG engineers

+ comfortable with thinking about scale

+ used to being on call

+ less likely to overpromise and underdeliver (consequences are worse at a FAANG)

- less able to work without requirements (they've always worked with a PM)

- used to working with incredible internal tooling

- expect a lot of compensation!

Startup engineers

+ more comfortable with switching stack/technologies

+ happier to pitch in with ideas outside of their team

+ more likely to have been involved in interviewing, even at junior level

- less used to documenting everything

- more likely to resist "formalizing" processes as the startup grows
I'd question the intelligence of anyone or anything who recommended following the musings of Ted Cruz. And that's coming from someone who grew up in a family deeply engaged in county-level republican politics.

If it were 2009, and Twitter was pushing Al Gore and ignoring George Bush, I'd see it differently. But it's 2022, and the toxic & polarizing aspects of many individuals make a perceived endorsement problematic for mainstream consumers.
Thank you :) We are looking forward to build that.

Rust has pretty extensive platform support, which makes it relatively simple for us to do that.
Sure, banning users from posting a published news story is "permissive".
Just tried it too.. Justified worries over closed-source & telemetry/github sign-in, but holy cow it's good. I especially like the just right minimal amount of settings – nothing extra, nothing missing – and fantastic minimalistic docs that gives understanding of all features and all hotkeys in like 10 mins.
Impressive.
Weird that Elon musk would do something like this

I assumed he would optimize how he spends his time.

He mentioned once that he sometimes sleeps/slept at the factory.

I had a similar thought on Putin: as long as the war is ongoing he has less time to do other things.

When Biden took over trump I also thought that bidens team might be able to do more change than the trump team because he fired so many and golfed often.
>Forums existed well before 1996. Both CompuServe and Prodigy were found liable for things people posted on forums on their platforms.

Dont take me as opposing the CDA. I think Section 230 is superb and necessary.

What I believe is that we simply enforce the rules. Free speech is guaranteed on twitter.
I mean, just minimize the comment? I like seeing discussion on many related aspects of an article, it's cool seeing how things compare.
The playground is not that bad: https://sap.github.io/ui5-webcomponents/playground/component... (for instance). But as other commenter pointed out, just take a look how long it takes to load some badges.
(Disclosure: current PM for Dependabot Alerts, currently working at GitHub)

You're right -- we haven't invested nearly enough in Dependabot Alerts. We're working to change that, starting with some foundational improvements like alert persistence, which shipped in February. (https://github.blog/2022-02-08-improving-developer-experienc...)

After our recent ship, we're in good shape to start addressing some of your concerns, like greater clarity through an alert's lifecycle or comments with dismissal.

Would love to hear any additional feedback. Let me know!
Ayn Rand's heroes are overwrought and improbable, but her villains are nothing to emulate either.
What's an LMM?
Beyond a few pretty questionable assumptions at work here (that the labor market is an effective decider of what skills are valuable to society full stop; that someone's labor dictates what skills they have; that what someone has to offer the labor market could correlate at all to something like character), I would simply reflect on whatever thought process has brought you to the situation where someone simply says, in so many words, that "the meek shall inherit the earth", and your first impulse is to say "no, in fact, they are shortsighted and viscious people who get whipped into frenzies for often no reason".

I dont even think Rand would follow you there; I can't really think of any corollary to that sentiment other than fascist rhetoric. To know nothing of a group of people but how much they make at work, and to go that far in painting a picture of them... Its shocking! Haha

I'm sure you mean well, and are genuinely reflecting, but this is not a good look at all to anybody but the most rightwing people. What amounts Idiocracy lore is not a suitable or humane thing to ground political beliefs on.
Thank you. Wanted to keep it simple and lightweight. Not the biggest fan of an average React/Angular project with 200mb+ of dependencies.
>The new argument is different, which asserts that a vendor may charge you more due to PayPal fees.

You misunderstand me. I didn't say you got charged extra for paypal over Stripe, for instance.

Stripe which you mention is also expensive, and also factored in to the price. I don't know of any serious eccomerce company that is not acutely aware of card fees.
Every payment gateway charges high fees and it is factored in to the price the consumer pays.

FWIW, while the UI for re-running jobs used to be better, the result was a LOT worse as it would re-run all the jobs instead of just the failing ones, so I am still MUCH happier with the new flow ;P.
“Large World Coordinates (LWC)” - fantastic.

My projects use Unity and any time the camera gets 1800m from the world (0,0,0) the camera begins to shake. By 2000m the shake is too violent to use.

So you have to reset the coordinates by a hack if you want a world scale 1:1 map
This is a pointless question. FAANG has people who are there to get paid while doing basic coding, VERY smart people, and plenty in between. So do startups.

Design your interview process according to your needs. Don't test on knowledge, bur rather reasoning skill according to the type of product. For example, for backend services positions, we set up a debugging problem based on the real world example that we had to go through, and it has been a very valuable tool for screening candidates.
There also exists a version where the original MI1 and 2 have the talkie dialog patched in from the special edition. That's my preferred way to play:

Since when is "published" a meaningful quality barrier to content?

Any idiot with a WP site can "publish" a "news story".

Besides, if I reply to your tweet, "My child just died in a fire." with an article about how fire deaths are among the most painful ways to die, it doesn't really matter much how "published" that "news story" is, it's hateful and has no place on the Internet.
A big part of why we're crowdfunding is to be able to grow the team and support more platforms (e.g. Desktop Firefox & Safari, mobile devices)
Offering someone $50K to stop doing something == Free Association and Free Market

Advocating Totalitarian controls via Terms of Service, and/or Government !== Free Association

Come back when it attempts to have Twitter ban this persons account, then you may have a case, offering an monetary incentive for someone to change their behavior is not censorship in any form.

Stop being a tool
(I didn't know of this company's existence until their non-existence today)

I don't think the idea is really that bad, and a form-filling browser extension would not be comparable to what they were trying to do here. The idea is pretty compelling in isolation - your random mom n pop ecommerce site can compete with Amazon on price for a lot of things, but it can't compete with convenience.

If I go to Amazon I can buy something with one or two clicks and be pretty certain that my card details aren't going to get stolen and the thing I ordered will probably arrive when they say it will just about.

If I go to a random ecommerce site I probably have to register, have to enter my card details and confront the possibility of getting ripped off. It's so much less convenient, so for most purchases I just go to Amazon, which is bad for a bunch of reasons.

What Fast was promising to do was to bring that convenience and trust to ecommerce sites, so that they could become more competitive with the Amazons of this world, get more sales, make more money, consumers save money, everyone wins.

Of course the problem is that they're only compelling when they're ubiquitous, and when everyone already has an account and everyone already trusts them. It's a bootstrapping problem, one that only really works if you burn a whole bunch of capital to get both consumers and suppliers signed up, or if you can piggyback off someone else's market penetration, e.g. Stripe, and even with that leg-up they weren't able to survive. All of this also ignores the existence of paypal, apple pay, google pay etc which do offer most of the convenience already.
This is awesome! How did you go about making this game? Would love a blog post/tutorial/primer, on how you made it happen.
> With regards to "why are there poor and rich people", the answer is so complex as to occupy entire libraries.

I think that would quality under beacon's idea of a more "nuanced" ideology, rather than something hard/fast (eg: a Marxist narrative dividing people into capital owners and non-owners).
I just went on a mini vacation to Vegas, and was thinking how nice it would be to just call up someone and ask for some simple advice. I did a bunch of online research before I booked things, but man was it painful. There are so many copy-cat blogs who just throw together a bunch of basic information with no real research done in order to get those clicks/adwords.

For example: best hotel pool in vegas. Seems simple enough. Circus Circus actually has a waterslide, but if you dive deeper (read a hundred reviews manually) you find out parts are often shut down, and the hotel itself is quite trashy and smells bad and has bad service (explains the really cheap room rate). But do you find that information on blogs? No way, they just include all the hotels with pools and copy in the verbiage directly from the hotel websites or other blogs.

There's probably an actual traveler blog out there that tells you all this and has great information, but it's hidden by all the SEO optimized trash blogs.

And this example can be applied to so many things we do all the time. Try to find a product you want on Amazon without spending half a day sorting through reviews and trash blogs.

So, personally, I think the future will be actual human service. I'd pay a few bucks to call up a service to answer these questions definitively for me.
Musk is famous for aggressively silencing his opponents when he has the power to do so (or thinks he does).
If you're already putting your own frontend on it in Slack, you could add a 're-run' button to that failure notification that hits the API for that? (I assume there is one.)

There's a weird DSL for buttons/layout in Slack, but it works, and obviously it's pretty easily testable, just fire the examples at your own endpoint and tweak it until it does what you want.

My own main frustration with Actions is just that the docs are bad, making it hard to configure.

I know your comment is tongue-in-cheek but I happily pay for Youtube premium and it's truly an amazing experience compared to the ad-ridden non-usable free Youtube. If Google created a similar Google premium where it had such features and no pesky ads I'd pay for it in a heartbeat.

A deadline is not the defining factor of a project; a clear definition of "done" is the defining factor. I have dozens of projects that have no specific deadline, but I know for sure when they will be done, because I will have achieved what I intended to do.
Yeah I was really wondering who found it easier to hack ASDF to work with other languages than just use a few separate package management solutions. It's an incredible library, but man I would not want to push its limits or it would go from odd to unusable pretty quick.

Who has been banned from Twitter for a joke that offended "only the wokest"? Dave Chapelle still has a twitter account. As does Louis CK.
>> he won't overtly threaten the company with a takeover or equivalent

Well, he can overtly threaten all he wants. He can begin the process. He can make all the money arrangements and make agreements with other shareholders. He just cannot complete the takeover by actually acquiring more stock (or other instruments) until after 90 days. Imho that isn't a practical limit on threats.
They're not slaves. They have choice. In fact, an unending list of jobs available in the tech industry.

Why is it Tesla's / SpaceX fault for being a cool company for many people to work at and they're willing to take a pay cut? It is 100% their choice.

There is absolutely no counter argument here that I can see. I am trying.

Pharo and Smalltalk in general always remind me of that famous William Gibson quote: "The future is already here—It’s just not very evenly distributed".
Yeah, I noticed that too. How can you confuse 'May' with 'March"?

Update: They fixed it.
Some people also have wildly different views on what "abuse" is...
That would also now force everyone to use this proprietary product instead of whatever they're familiar with.

For mac <-> linux, posix-compliant scripts mostly work in my experience but you have to account for different versions of gnu utils. For linux <-> windows, if it's small you could just write a powershell script, or use something like python on both, no?

I fail to see how these features are nice enough to force people to use a proprietary terminal that, for now, is compatible with existing bash/zsh shells.
Free tier vs paid tier always made perfect sense in theory, but what industry has actually pulled this off?

Newspapers? Hah. Spotify? Perhaps.

The problem with capital-gains-driven investment is Netflix can't just sit semi-sustainability at a steady share price and just pay out a dividend. Instead we're likely to see all sorts of jerking around until the business shoots itself in the foot.
Consider the phrasing: “So calling someone ‘pedo guy’ on Twitter once is Ok behavior?” You chose to unpack the facts in a direction chosen by you. A court of law unpacked it in a different direction.

Lumen doesn't need any hardware implementation. It can use one if available, though.
> On top of that, you also proceeded to say that $2 billion in property damage and "mostly peaceful" can co-exist. Sorry, but $2 billion (with a "b") in property damage and a much larger - but difficult to quantify - amount from lost business and other collateral damage is far too great to make the allowance of "mostly peaceful".

Sorry, those things can obviously co-exist, otherwise you're in nonsense territory where everything is tainted because everything has nuts associated with it.

So the question is: how many people participated in the protests, how many damaged property, and (in this case) how many of those where just exploiting the situation to pursue other goals (e.g. boogaloo bois). If the peaceful fraction is in "most" territory, then they were "mostly peaceful."
Oh I like the look of this. Can't wait to try it out
I'm not sure if this is the right answer.

The prevailing political view, was that strong economic ties would make war and violent conflict between Germany and Russia impossible. This is basically what happened intentionally and successfully between Germany and France after World War II first with European Coal and Steel Community and later the European Union.
50 years ago it was "now or never" to prevent any major effects from climate change. then it was "now or never" to keep warming under 1C, then to prevent ocean acidification, then to keep warming under 2C, then to keep the ice caps from melting, then to prevent a runaway effect.

it's like a fire alarm going off. if you act early, you can smother it. otherwise you need an extinguisher, then to call the fire department, then at least to get you and your kids to safety. it's always now or never to save what you can, it's just that what you can save diminishes.
