Do you have access to their internal modelling? I don't. I have no idea what they were expecting.

I agree, that seems like a slow start, but that's a single month in a very challenging quarter. Given Netflix, one of the biggest participants in the space, missed their subscriber projections by 2.7M in the first quarter, and are forecasting a further 2.5M contraction, I see a very crowded field where a niche offering should be expected to find a small audience and grow slow.

Regardless, I stand by my claim that commenters are missing the forest for the trees, here, and using this as an opportunity to bash the CNN brand rather than stepping back and looking at the broader context.
For large airships, unless stored indoors (which is of course hard because of the size of the structure required) they are essentially permanently in flight. The Goodyear blimps, for example, are followed as they travel by portable (truck-mounted) mooring towers but must have pilots on board 24/7 even when moored, because a modest wind can easily blow the mooring tower over if pilots don't maneuver the ship "on the ground." In high winds mooring is simply impossible and the airships must remain aloft. The logistics of this operation are very complex, and the airship must be able to swing 360 degrees while moored to allow for maneuvering, which requires a huge area. The result is that the Goodyear blimps rely on a pretty limited set of mostly small municipal airports that they have experience with. Closed air force bases are popular since they're most likely to have a far corner of the tarmac that the trucks can easily drive out to but that has no structures or other aircraft use that the airship would interfere with. The Goodyear website has a picture that gives you a good idea of what this looks like: https://www.goodyearblimp.com/behind-the-scenes/img/emeablim...

Not pictured is the truck of helium cylinders that accompanies the blimp for top-ups, which are required as I understand it mostly due to leakage, as the pilots carefully avoid venting helium due to the high cost (it's an option for emergencies).

Airships are huge and hard to manage.

Wow, didn't know about this. Thanks! Slightly peaved once i read over the outline of the test tho.... linked below but series 65 assumes and prepares me to give advice on these matters. It includes estate planning and a whole slew of sections on the ethics of giving advice.

Agreed. We could starve ourselves out of existence but only in the case of a multi-decade event.
I've been looking for a tiny mixer with 3 band eq + FX sends per channel for a while to run synths and/or decks through. This look like this might fit the bill. The compressor on each channel is a bonus. I'm not entirely sure if there's alternative products that would work for me instead, but this has my attention.
"Taiwan should destroy TSMC if invaded, suggests US military paper"

It's always depressing to look back on the time I hopped on a backorder list for one then gave up after months of waiting only to have them gradually get more and more expensive when restocked. I really wanted to get one early on but dear lord they are so expensive now days.

Again, this narrative doesn't align with the facts.

Suppose TSMC never existed. USA would still be totally economically dependent on China in 2022. If USA declares war on China, USA will have an acute economic crisis within weeks due to half a trillion $ in missing imports. This has nothing to do with chips from TSMC.

The geopolitical leverage of TSMC is vastly overstated by people who get their geopolitics from geopolitical non-experts like Zeihan and Stratechery.
Parts of this read like satire, but other parts make me think this person is really someone with low cognitive ability.

Masks are 100% useless. We've known this since 2013[^1]!

The entire reason masks exist as a thing is because of "asymptomatic spread," which came from flawed studies[^2]. The WHO even tried saying so waaaay back and then walked back their statements for political reasons[^3]. There is likely zero asymptomatic spread.

I agree the shoe thing is stupid and should go away (it's only in America. No other country will make you take off your shoes. Most people still do it out of habit) and the liquids thing is stupid and ridiculous as well.

The rackmount server is really for folks that have their audio / video equipment in a rackmount, not to be a rackmounted server. It would be horrible to use that machine in a server room.
It probably won't happen, but if Apple did want to get into the server market, it would make a lot more sense for them to support linux on their hardware for server use cases than to make their own server software.
>That's totally what happened. We are in a renaissance of artistry, of artists creating meaningful art out of conviction, and making a living.

This is irony right? Because a guy made some money selling ape drawings there's now a renaissance?
This got a lot harder with the rise of the Internet because what was fairly well-known became completely well-known so loaners started creating poison pill clauses to try to stop it. And then once they moved to electronic billing a lot of them came up with the hostile options you mention. The couple of times I have refinanced mortgages, I explicitly checked this when choosing between offers.
My guess is that they will expand business manager and related tools and just make it a cloud product.

The decision for the first quote you used was overturned afterward, over 50 years ago now. It's misrepresentative of the current state of the law and you shouldn't use it as an example.

It's a question of relative positioning along spectrum, not a binary state. Real languages are not "synthetic" or "analytic" in an absolute sense. They are "more synthetic than this other language" or "more analytic than this other language."
Maybe an accident, but adjusted for inflation $2000 in 1983 USD corresponds to $5800 in current money. Electronics was expensive in the past.

It's exactly the opposite. A reduction in power can save millions of dollars in energy and cooling. All of the constraints and challenges of building a desktop are scaled up. This doesn't even factor in the savings in space. Real estate isn't cheap.

I've lost a 3T collection of HDTV movies back in the day (student) because of WD green drive that decided to return something else that was written to it in a USB box. Took me a while to realize what's going on, but seeing cksum errors when this particular drive was a member of zraid1, I didn't lose any more data (blocks with correct data and checksum were returned from pool) and was able to replace it on my schedule and money. Since then, I just don't feel like gambling on bitrot. Neither on movies, nor on family photos.
Would an endpoint management system like Jamf let you enforce that policy?
To get an idea you can search for blockchain on Google Scholar. There is plenty to be done. Some naive questions could be... How to scale them, how to increase privacy, what are the right incentive structures, what happens if you change those structures, how can you reduce the size of the chain while still keeping the chain secure, what kind of attacks are possible and how do you mitigate or prevent them and so on.
That's not a bubble. The film and television business has always been huge, and consumers pay to watch it. It's not even clear there's been any increase in real terms. There might be a shift to streaming, but the industry size has remained relatively constant in real terms.
Anyone who has tried to use their server products knows that Apple doesn't use them themselves for running the company. Heck, look at their opensource software and you can tell the teams are using Linux boxes.
Yeah California imports green energy from other states, and based on what you’re saying exports dirty energy. Maybe even to those same states.

The only critique I’ll say though is nuclear is definitely clean energy.
FreeBSD have a lower memory footprint and their network (now together with their filesystem) make it a better server than Linux if you want a better use of your network bandwidth.

I love FreeBSD and would prefer to use it as my desktop instead of Linux, but for servers people should also consider FreeBSD as a great option for a better use of computational resources. (And all this even when Linux have zillions of smart people working hours and hours to optimized it which FreeBSD cannot afford to)

Zucker was trying to spend big to get into the streaming space. For example, poaching Kasie Hunt...

"CNN is trying to hire dozens of people to help fuel its move into the streaming arena, and one person familiar with the matter said Hunt was offered an annual salary of between $1 million and $1.5 million that NBC News felt it simply could not match. This person suggested that Hunt could play a pivotal role in CNN’s streaming efforts, appearing online at moments of great national importance, such as during presidential elections."

>because EFI booting does not have any advantage, only disadvantage

For an already installed system it doesn't really matters, so the point is moot here.

But for the new systems setup I would always prefer a UEFI (with or without SecureBoot) because it allows to expose the HID management of the onboard/expansion board controllers, a proper way to return to the management/boot menu in the case of the failed boot.

Sure, it doesn't always work good, but neither BIOS/CMS.
Huh, it doesn't work for me with MacOS system settings set to Dark Mode, even though that does usually work in the browser for sites like google that support dark mode.
This feels like a very user-hostile attitude ...

Also, these files provide a useful service to Mac users. You could also find a way to support them instead of fighting this.
When the words Apple and Cloud come together I start to twitch.

It’s done to death that their web services are of dubious quality, and they have got better. However you don’t have to go very deep or use services for very long to find some very sharp edges.
The 10,000 CNN+ viewers will be disappointed I suppose.
They should try reading the website then. Go try to purchase an iphone 13 and it clearly tells you "what's in the box" during the order flow, and then directly beneath it it says:

> As part of our efforts to reach our environmental goals, iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini do not include a power adapter or EarPods. Included in the box is a USB‑C to Lightning Cable that supports fast charging and is compatible with USB‑C power adapters and computer ports.

> We encourage you to re‑use your current power adapters and headphones that are compatible with these iPhone models. But if you need any new Apple power adapters or headphones, they are available for purchase.

And in the box is a USB-C to lightning adapter, so if they have a USB-C charger they can just use that. I'm guessing you said "old Androids" to imply that they are so old they're using micro usb, right?
> China is a far stronger opponent than Russia, so I don’t see why that would change.

China is a weaker strategic threat despite being a stronger local conventional threat. That would seem to me to make outside direct intervention more likely (though not necessarily more likely than not.)

> The US would be going it comparatively alone against China in a Taiwan conflict

There is nothing as centralized as NATO or the EU in the region, but there are numerous US bilateral and a few small multilateral security arrangements, and China is one of the main things motivating those arrangements.

So can we be allowed to cross build with the toolchain on non-mac hosts now please?
I have used TE products on occasion and looked into them deeply from a bunch of engineering perspectives. Compared to other products in a similar price point and form factor the likelihood of a problem is far lower. When you reduce the size you eliminate structural components and if you can't mill aluminum you're left with a lot of difficult choices to make to keep things stable. TE does a good job of balancing those things.

Customer service is where you see the end result of this. Replacing things quickly and easily means they aren't struggling to support bad design decisions in terms of stability.
The general categorical answer to that question is not known. Some linguists think it might be so, others disagree.

Within the Indo-European family that includes Latin and Sanskrit, the empirical historical process seems to have been that the Proto-Indo-European language was highly synthetic, and as time went on, less synthetic daughter languages such as Latin and Sanskrit developed from it by degrees. These in turn gradually developed by degrees into even less synthetic / more analytic daughter languages (Italian, Hindi, etc.)

Why this happened is an open theoretical question. Pidginization (which would roughly correspond to 'lack of isolation'), and/or phonetic changes that impacted discernment of synthetic features are leading candidates.
> anarchy doesn’t scale

Fair argument, but mostly a strawman against peaceful progress.

Call it “nonviolence”. Define the broad goal of civilization as eliminating coercion, and these experiments seem useful.
Assuming you’re running a smb server, you could just veto the files. Windows isn’t much better since it likes to create thumbs.db almost everywhere too (which I also veto, but vetoing them can increase the load and bandwidth requirements and your server and clients)
I wonder if this might be even more useful for ReactOS, which is still actively supporting 32-bit x86, while Windows 11 no longer does.
> If you check the github thread then the very first post says it was flagged as PUA but the actual error they show is clearly a malware classification.

Are you sure that's what you're seeing? The image in the first post of that GitHub thread shows that Defender did indeed flag the qBittorrent installer as PUA.
Honestly, the risks of just-in-time have always been know. The problem is that holding excess inventory and/or reserve capacity costs real money, and somebody has to pay for it. Investors/managers drive out wasted costs or eventually they go out of business. (Absent government support.)

> this is the definitive signal that will not happen.

…that it will not happen via an add-on “server” program.

But TBH it’s hard to see how servers could be much of a market for Apple. People use the cloud more than local (“departmental”) servers these days and the cloud back end belongs to Linux, typically with a provider on top (AWS etc). Apple’s strengths lie elsewhere.
It's all about the calories. If you reduce them, you'll lose weight. If you increase them, you'll gain weight. Simple to say but difficult to do because we think we have to eat when we feel hungry. We don't because we have fat reserves but our body wants to save those for famines, which we don't experience.

The best way I've found to eat less is to combine keto and intermittent fasting. Reducing carbs reduces sugar spikes and crashes. A sugar crash makes you feel hungry. If you eat protein and healthy fats instead of carbs, you reduce your sugar spikes and crashes, thus reducing your feeling hungry. If I eat a meal of protein and fats, but no carbs, I can go 8 hours without feeling hungry.

This alone didn't help me lose weight because it wasn't forcing my body to use up the fat reserves on my body. Intermittent fasting can do that. I would eat two meals each day at 2pm and 8pm. I ate at 8pm because I knew I wouldn't get hungry before going to bed and I wouldn't feel hungry while sleeping. When I got up, I didn't eat. My stomach remained asleep so to speak. By 2pm I had gone 18 hours without eating. After the first 12 hours, my body started using up my fat reserves. At 2pm I had been burning fat for 6 hours.

If I didn't reduce my carbs, I wouldn't be able to fast intermittently because I'd be too hungry.

Is there a reason airships end up being round? I would think more of a saucer shape would be easier to move through the air and less subject to crosswind whims.
It matters for targeting "Apple Silicon" (aka M1, for now) Macs. It's complex to build a binary that works at feature parity on M1.

Licensing requirements for VMs and lack of server hardware that can be put in datacenters are both obstacles to target Apple Silicon. Not insurmountable, you can build enclosures for a rack of Mac Studios & Mac Pros and orchestrate VMs with Hypervisor framework, but it's a large enough obstacle that major cloud providers don't offer it and that pushes large costs onto the CI providers, which then get pushed to the folks trying to build tooling that works on M1 Macs. That includes the open source ecosystem.

The alternative is cross compilation, either cross-arch or cross-platform or both. All of these options are brittle and complex.

Speaking from experience here, I've had to follow issue trackers for: programming language teams shipping parity for M1, major libraries (think of foundational libraries like GRPC's libraries for each language) not yet shipping binaries for M1, and developer tools and OSS teams producing binaries. All of this needs to come together, and it hasn't yet.

The whole ecosystem is straining under the weight of this complexity to target engineers' laptops.
1. Can you share some use cases for this?

2. It seems like I can use your API to create bank accounts with your bank. Does this mean I could become a "bank wrapper" and use your API to generate real bank accounts and become a digital bank without having to go through the legal processes of becoming a real bank?
The fact that it's in the ToS doesn't mean it's not arbitrary.
More complex problems?

I'm not sure. A sophisticated camera is quite nice, but quake introduced a visibility determination solution that was used in dozens, perhaps hundreds of games afterwards. It also helped pioneer modding (it has a compiled scripting language), and later on had online deathmatch with predictive netcode (so it actually worked over the internet!) and was one of the first games to support hardware accelerated 3d graphics on pc.

It also has lightmaps, all surfaces are textured, and runs in software with no hardware acceleration, z-buffering, built-in perspective correct texture mapping, etc.

Obviously, that doesn't make it more fun to play, but Quake was an incredible technical achievement for the time, I don't think anybody would put Mario 64 in the same basket.
Well any exponential growth curve in the real world is actually a logistic growth curve in disguise. A civilization would have to go from Kardashev II to Kardashev III in about the same time as it went from I to II to maintain exponential energy growth.

As an aside, the Falcon 9 flew 30 times last year and goes significantly over Mach 3.
From the website:

> Ultimately, only by contacting the developer, can one confirm censorship.

Yeah I wish the website did this for every app listed, because claiming censorship if a developer temporarily removes an app in a region for language fixes or bugs makes it seem like a boy who cried wolf situation. At its current form it's more of a "is this app available in your region?" database.

I think a huge first step for me didn't require any textbooks, but simply manually calculating the CIE coordinates based on the actual light spectrum. There are some really good articles online at this point, but I think everyone should probably just do this once.
