No chance unfortunately. Windows 11 has pop up "notifications" that are basically ads all over. Unnecessarily hard to cleanup / customize in a biz setting.

If we could deploy Apple products in a business environment we would in a heartbeat. But Microsoft just is better here currently on a lot of fronts - the last time I chased my tail here it didn't pay off.

If Apple wants to compete for the business market I think they should! We need first class user account management that INTEGRATES with other stuff (ie, google email etc etc). Right now you can federate from active directory to almost anything (SonicWall/VPN for remote users, WiFi for onprem user devices, vSphere for VM management etc etc). If you sync to google you can then use google one click sign-ons everywhere on the web SAAS side.

We then need office running perfectly.

Then we'd probably do our legacy apps on some VMs and chrome for SAAS apps.

We also need to be able to run MacOS virtually. We have remote users who talk to an on-prem VMs, separates their personal and work stuff, we can lock down and monitor the on-prem VMs and they can watch netflix with no worries using home machine. How does this work with Apple? It's easy with Windows.

I think there would be some demand from smaller co's to make the switch if there was a solution which allowed what folks are looking for -> migration to cloud as offices go virtual with controlled "desktops" delivered to users while still allowing in office / warehouse / factory deployments.
iCloud Shared Photo Library debuts on iOS 16 to help share family photos
Yes.

As in the USA, certain acts that individuals do in China and Russia are prohibited in their respective regimes and yet practiced by their foreign intelligence agencies. We agree fully.

That is not the point you were originally making. You seemed, facetiously, to be confused that behavior prohibited to US citizens was permitted to the US intelligence apparatus.
They mean Apple's advantage is in good part due to their anti-competitive practice of buying TSMC's entire 5nm production. Leaving none for others like AMD which had to compete on 7nm for the longest time. Same will happen for 3nm if nothing changes.

Whatever your opinion may be about Apple/AMD/Intel. Unfair competition is not good for consumers in the long run.

edit: instantly downvoted. As per tradition in Apple related posts on HN when faced with facts.
Same thing that happens if your FIDO/U2F key breaks. If you have a backup key (or in the case of this implementation, icloud backup), then it shouldn't matter. Otherwise you're at the mercy of the site that's requesting the credentials. They might allow you to authenticate via another method (security questions?), or lock you out permanently.
> the best portable laptop Apple made since the 11" Air before it was discontinued

I used to have an 11" Air as a daily driver. The portability was nice but I'd never go back to a computer that small. Too cramped, too little screen real estate, too small a battery. It doesn't surprise me that 11" laptops are rare these days.
I've developed on an iPad using Termius SSHed to an EC2 node running tmux. Worked great.
> My involvement started as a way of publicizing the Cheapskate's Guide.

Well, sir, there's your problem right there. No social media site likes to have advertisers externalize the advertisers' costs to the social media site. Users don't like to see ads, they'll maybe tolerate ads that are relevant, but ads that the advertiser thinks are relevant, and the users don't? Well, those draw complaints.

Does Reddit "shadow ban" anyone? I thought that the phrase "shadow ban" was just the Qanon computer illiterates complaining about how everyone ignored their crazy rantings.

Synopsis: Goose's death was based on a real accident, but ejection protocol was changed by the Top-Gun timeline. Had Goose followed procedure, he should have survived the ejection.
Maybe there's a need for bridging app. Something to aid,suggest,review. So people could spend their energy slowly but surely ? an OSMCAD
I just had to hack/patch windows 11 in order to bring back "never combine taskbar windows" functionality which existed in windows 10. I am strongly considering switching over at this point. Removal of "never combine" is such a productivity kill that it baffles me how this thing rolled out at all. Who took over the wheel over at Microsoft and who left, that made this major breaking change take place?
The security of these tokens is still MFA as an end-to-end security model, insofar as you need a something-you-know [password, passcode] to unlock the device that serves as your something-you-have. So someone who just steals the device, can't use it to authenticate as you. (See also: smart cards having PINs.)

And, once again, companies doing MFA properly, enforce MDM policies on such devices, such that they either don't allow you to use the convenience biometric unlock features, or they limit them to ~1 minute before you must unlock with a something-you-know factor again.

(I worked for IBM for a year-or-so a while back; they required this even for phones not serving as MFA authenticators, because they had a threat model that included attackers cloning your fingerprint just to snoop company secrets out of the emails on your phone.)
It’s viable but you’ll spend a lot of time with memory compression/swap working hard. Not a great experience IMO.

It's more complicated than that; if you look at the reviews and tests 8GB M1 machines, you'll see there were no issues like the ones you're mentioning.

The pipeline between the unified RAM and the SSD is so fast, it's essentially a L3 cache as apposed to swap as in the way we traditionally think about it.
Mobile GPUs are much slower, they only share the same name
I use a windows 11 arm vm on my m1 MacBook with parallel and the experience is pretty good.
As an RP, there is nothing Apple specific for you to do, just WebAuthn.
I wish I could speak to geothermal, but it’s just a different industry & technology (maybe it’s like the the difference between architecting a chat app vs a ride-hailing app..? :) ). Yet +1 for the sustainability approach there, always a fan of those intentions =) Things I know revolve around the content of this video I produced: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZLkmrAvAzE

Relevance to original article, for example, are that there are ventures around here that focus on water suction, but their scope is practically limited to surface water. We’ve focused exclusively on submersible pumps so that farmers with wells can tap their groundwater for agriculture with us.
> 49 senators just voted to allow a 9 month old baby thats half way out to be killed.

Are you talking about HR-3755?

https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/3755...

I'm reading this now and I'm not seeing any references to "intact dilation and extraction" or "partial birth abortion". It specifically limits abortion to before the point of fetal viability unless the mother's life is at stake:

> (a) General Rule. — A health care provider has a statutory right under this Act to provide abortion services, and may provide abortion services, and that provider’s patient has a corresponding right to receive such services, without any of the following limitations or requirements:

> (snipped)

> (8) A prohibition on abortion at any point or points in time prior to fetal viability, including a prohibition or restriction on a particular abortion procedure.

> (9) A prohibition on abortion after fetal viability when, in the good-faith medical judgment of the treating health care provider, continuation of the pregnancy would pose a risk to the pregnant patient’s life or health.

Have you even read this bill for yourself, or are you reacting to some journalist's interpretation of the bill's text?
Upgrade-ability and repair-ability are important topics, and do impact how environmentally friendly a device can be considered to be, but this is unrelated to the core of the topic at hand.

The contention was that "They should have said it's less bad instead of saying it's better". That is what I was responding to.

You've introduced a different topic, that is tangentially related, but not directly relevant to a discussion about framing things. It'd be relevant in a discussion about the absolute environmental friendliness of the device, but that's another discussion entirely.
Pretty sure my Dell charger puts out nearly 100W, not sure how compatible it is actually though

Edit:

It is a power supply that came with an XPS 15

The text on the brick claims 5V 1A and 20 V 6.5 A, missing 9V and 15V levels and the current on 20V seems not to be standard. It does charge everything I have plugged it into, but they might all be falling back to 5V1A. The back text could also just not be telling the truth.
Not to mention, up until a few years ago, most PCs did not come with TPMs, so they can't run Windows 11. And Windows 10 won't get security patches after 2025.

I built my computer in 2017, and it's still very capable of running modern games, and in three years it will still be perfectly fine. But I won't be able to run Windows 11 unless I do weird hacks and workarounds, or try to source a TPM that works with my motherboard.
Scaling Container Technologies at Coinbase with Kubernetes
Well, you could put the containment completely underground, but you'd need to run your coolant of choice up to the surface (and you'd need air intakes for humans etc). You wouldn't need to with once-through water cooling using a large body of water, a river, or the ocean, but that's not allowed anymore.

Note that reactor vessels themselves are sometimes at least partially underground in a reinforced concrete pit in the containment.
Right now, just like you could yesterday. But maybe you actually want to run that code? That's probably never going to happen, not on the App Store at least!
No, it doesn't:

In [2]: sys.version_info
Out[2]: sys.version_info(major=3, minor=10, micro=1, releaselevel='final', serial=0)

In [3]: sys.version_info < (3, 10)

Not quite sure what your argument is.
Drastically reducing rentals would crush job mobility/flexibility. There are a lot of problems with the rental market, but it's existence is not one of them.
That's analog for you. You essentially have a speed of light connection from the frame buffer to the electron gun, with no processing involved. As fast as the bits can be read from the data buffer they appear on the screen.
You need 8GB just to run "modern" web applications, let alone develop them.
This was a sticking point for me as well.

Honestly I don't get the limitation. I'm assuming there were trade-offs involved, but it seems like an odd feature to sacrifice.
Anduril: Rebooting the Arsenal of Democracy
I don't have a horse in this race, but I don't follow your reasoning. If you thought there was a large bot problem, part of the appeal would be that there's an opportunity to fix that problem. That would increase the value of the company after you've fixed the problem. Assuming that's the case, then finding out there's not a big bot problem would mean there's not as much of an opportunity.
Curious if the web based version of vs code works for this?
Just a few weeks ago I replaced my Surface Laptop 3 with a M1 MacBook and couldn't agree more regarding hardware. I can't speak for any xbox branded stuff, but any MS-branded computer I've ever owned has been trash. Microsoft might be terrible at this hardware business, but they do have a powerful presence in the developer & business community.

I still feel like Microsoft is the strongest software company on earth. Consider that not even the confines of this M1 MacBook prevent me from being able to compile & run my .NET apps without modification. Apple's hypothetical hegemony does not cross over in the same way.

Until Apple can get me to look at their Xcode offerings and think "wow fuck visual studio, GitHub, et. al.", I do not think their takeover of the computing world will begin.
There is magsafe now, so you don't have to loose one for charging. Honestly it's easiest to just dump it into a USB C dock because they don't support more then one external monitor anyway.
I have a GaN charger from Anchor that delivers 62W and was under $50
No, you can't. There are no dark patterns, ads, or spam in macOS. The worst you could say is that it has "terrible UX." I would then respond: compared to what?

In my view, the only desktop-grade OS I prefer over the modern Mac is MacOS 9. It was much easier to use and understand from top to bottom. On the other hand, it lacked a lot of features I've come to take for granted (pre-emptive multitasking, multithreading, protected memory, support for modern hardware, gestures, etc).

I do really miss the spatial Finder though.
I was more referring to lying about layoffs
The RPi 400 seems pretty easy to get. I ordered 2 a couple of weeks ago and got them with no problem. It's any sort of regular RPi 4 board that's unobtainium, except occasionally as a bundle with a ton of stuff you may or may not want/need.
At least not mentioned. YouTube 4k will eat a lot of battery…
It's a vulnerability in the inside panel that was covered up by requiring the front panel to do more than it should. If the front panel were just a dumb I/O device, the inside panel could not have this specific vulnerability.
Hopefully external displays will also support full screen apps as well (I haven’t used normal windows since Lion).
Less safe is up to the statistics. My guess is that its safe "enough" right now and only gets safer beyond humans. But the other point is more interesting: Flexibility. Since you don't need a driver, you can have a different kind of fleet management that - yes, I am an optimist - would be more available 24/7 than with human drivers.
Orbits are very non-intuitive until you've had a chance to play around with them, KSP did wonders for my understanding of orbits. Lots of people make the mistake that once you're in orbit you can just freely move in 3D to wherever you want a perception not helped by the number of times movies show it working that way.
I think we're talking about two different machines, I have a fanless MacBook from ~2015, with the ultra low voltage intel CPU that is way, way too slow these days.

It has also survived multiple water spills, and the speakers don't work anymore. It's definitely time for an upgrade :)
Their announcement last month already indicated that it would become widely supported Soon (TM): https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2022/05/apple-google-and-micr...

I'm sort of expecting Google to follow suit with the next Android release, and perhaps Microsoft after that when the next iteration of Windows 11 drops (or at the same time, as Microsoft doesn't have a mobile market and relies on Android and iOS integrations).
seoul has city planners, hell, my cousin applied to be one. it's just that unlike in the us, city planners are empowered to get nimbys to shut the hell up and go and build things
GitHub Codespaces has also been a useful option.
Wow really? Why hasn't noone asked you to guide their waste disposal program the way you think it would work?

Have you ever seen what oceans do to glass over time?
I prefer the convenience of always having a reasonably large screen to hand.

Physical footprint doesn't matter for me; my Osprey backpack can easily take a 16" laptop. It's the weight that's the factor for me.
Still only supports one display. Also they increased the prices across the board..

Quite happy with my M1 Pro, a beat and a hell of a purchase.

Thankfully we don't need to trust in meaningless anecdotes about what those in the 'real world' do or don't know.

The facts on the ground are that Apple's Mac sales are rapidly growing and in the last quarter half of all Mac buyers were new. That clearly indicates that something new to the Mac platform is attracting users.

So whether they know specifically about M1 or not they do know that the Macs have better characteristics than in previous years which M1 is responsible for.

And given that in all Mac marketing the M1 has been heavily advertised logically at least some proportion of users do know about it and do see it as a key differentiator.
-- only real issue walking in Seoul is the fine folks of said city have not yet selected a uniformed direction of travel per side of any given walkway - that is to say - they meander all over - i've always found this quite challenging - i like to look a head a plan my path through the pedestrians - a difficult endeavor in this city -- that said - still easily my favorite city in the world for walking around --
I've used blinkshell to remote into other machines and it's worked well enough for me, although it still requires another machine. It apparently has vscode built into it now, but I haven't used it much since.

I'd really love to see a native vscode on ipad.
I've tried FreeBSD (without desktop) on Thinkpad X1. I must admit, it is pretty good.
If your friends have access to VLC on all of their devices, and have some appetite for tech, why not use an RTSP server and just hand them RTSP URLs as "channels"? You don't get browser playback, but as long as everyone has VLC or an RTSP capable media player they can just open the stream on whatever device they have.
Interesting. I wouldn't consider the base 30W adapter as a de-facto $40 either.
> 5 years from now people will grok more fundamentally that launching 2 process nodes ahead of Intel via TSMC was the big win.

AMD will have process node parity with Apple this year - Zen4 will be on N5P, as will M2. I doubt that alone will be sufficient for x86 to catch up, they have a LOT of ground to make up.

(this is, of course, the "small" laptop chip for Apple, the M2 Pro/Max will add more CPU cores and a much larger GPU, but you can still extrapolate the performance trends once we see Zen4 and I doubt it's going to be all that flattering. AMD has said "minimum of 15% faster", but even if that works out to 40% on average, Apple just made their own 18% leap, and the current architectural gap is much larger than 22% according to SPEC2017 benchmarks.)

It's not all just "apple wants to go bigger" either - Apple's cores are quite svelte in terms of transistor count as well, they're in between Zen3 and Alder Lake transistor count (this is supposition, but I think they would still be slightly smaller than Alder Lake even if you removed the AVX-512 support from Alder Lake). Most of their transistors go towards a truly titanic GPU, the cores themselves are fairly small (the efficiency cores in particular are impressively small for the performance they give).

And yes, of course "Apple has chosen to target slightly lower clock rates with really high IPC", but that is enabled by design decisions that ARMv8 allows (really deep reorder buffer, really wide decode) that x86 cannot replicate as easily, you can't just triple x86's IPC by targeting a slightly lower clockrate and going wider.

And yes, ARM code is slightly less dense - about 12% larger than x86 when compiling the SPEC2017 test suite, according to the numbers from the RISC-V people. That's not where the difference comes from either, it's not just "high IPC on low density code".

I know what Jim Keller said, and he's right, x86 isn't dead, but it's not ahead right now either, even considering Apple is on 5nm. When AMD is on 5nm this year, we can re-assess and see whether that was the driving factor, or whether there are design reasons as well.

People seem to have interpreted Keller's comments as being "it is physically impossible for ISA to make any perceptible difference in perf-per-transistor or perf-per-watt" and I'm not sure that's a statement he would agree with. A 10-20% advantage to restructuring your architecture in a way that enables deeper reorder and better decoding vs x86, seems like a reasonable premise to me. Especially considering the baseline is x86, the quintessential legacy behemoth ISA. There has been a lot of work to keep it in play, but that means a lot of the "easy tricks" like instruction cache have already been exploited just to get it this far. Surely there are things that could have been done better from a clean start.

> Seoul is not a pretty town, not at least by most Western senses of beauty.

Seoul is one of the most intensely aesthetic places on the planet. It's ugliness wraps all the way around into a kind of brutalist cyber punk thing that I find to be one of the coolest aesthetics of any city anywhere. I don't think I've ever found brutalist stuff to be beautiful outside of Seoul

Really grateful for the countless hours of my life I've gotten to spend walking around Seoul between 3-6am
On the contrary, voice is too high resolution. Live and interactive, with no video to distract, makes it immediately obvious when someone is bullshitting you, compared to text (especially 140char limited) or pre-recorded videos/podcasts.

The only thing clubhouse would be worth for is improv comedy, but there are not enough good troupes.
Windows on ARM is basically completely different at this point, it's perfectly functional; they have x64 emulation as of recently and it just uses normal UEFI for booting, just like most other normal laptops. Honestly the emulation is pretty good even if it's not as fast as Rosetta2, and they even now have a new 64-bit Windows ABI and calling convention that allows developers to incrementally port their applications to AArch64 on an individual DLL-by-DLL basis (so the emulator can handle transitioning between an x64 app and an AArch64 DLL, or the other way around.) They aren't just doing nothing.

The biggest problem is the hardware: you're basically just buying a poorly performing laptop with probably lagging Linux support if you get tired of Windows, and you could just buy an M1 Macbook and get superior performance and battery life for the same cost, and you can even just run Windows on that using Parallels and still get good performance. The AArch64 laptop market is mostly just Qualcomm processors and Apple, and if you actually care about the performance profile, there's basically no comparison between the two right now with current offerings; the Mac is the winner, and you can even run Linux on it.
Not Docker, webpack. Your run-of-the-mill webpack dev server will happily gulp gigabytes of RAM, and pray that your frontend dev stack only runs one of them. Your IDE will probably use a few more gigabytes on top of that for static analysis and autocompletion, and that's how you need at least 8-10GB to run develop your average mid-size web app without swapping.
All i want is a laptop with similar build quality, battery life, and Ubuntu.
But note that they still haven't proceeded to prosecute him for these charges yet. Which just seems so odd.
Running Macbook Air M1 with 16 GB of RAM and never had performance issues running multiple Electron instances, simulators, compilers, browsers and what not. Changed to Macbook Air after my 3 times as expensive Macbook Pro 16" (8 core Intel) was stolen and never missed it for a second. Doesn't seem like there is a compelling reason to upgrade to Macbook Air M2.

Quick Google search indicates Windows still holds a 74% market share. Apple has a long way to go before they are really crunching on Windows in the general market. Hardware superiority does not guarantee success, for many people what they are already comfortable with is fine.
