How do you know that don't? Really though, they shouldn't. That's pissing in the ocean on an individual level, and the government doesn't run it's budget off rando Treasury donations. They are not just advocating more taxes on themselves but on the very wealthy in general. A systemic change in taxation.

These same people likely also donate a huge amount of money to charities and etc. On an individual basis it's easier to draw a line between funds donated and outcomes.

> They don't need the government to compel them.

Do they? Do you? Why not just make the government a charity then.
The issue isn’t “propaganda” in the general sense. It is “war propaganda, denying war crimes Russia is committing, lying about the invasion of a European country, etc”. Your comparison doesn’t make much sense.
You actually have the option to just use any USB-C charger in the 3 USB-C ports though, at least on my work 14-inch M1 Pro MBP. I just keep the MagSafe charger in my backpack, because those are the situations where I'd want it (rather than at home... though with my dog, maybe I should get more MagSafe cables).
None of the major manufacturers are going to ship Linux to consumers. Having a version of Windows that actually has apps that they can ship means now building the hardware is worth it.
Yeah I guess that's why it took 5 seconds. Didn't need to waste any breathe on HDMI, SD, or even MagSafe!
Because you are most likely running the Intel version, not the Apple Silicon one!
Check it in the Activity Monitor. There should be a "Kind" column on the CPU or Memory tabs. If not, you can turn on that column via a right click on the headers.
Would you be OK with a USB-C to MagSafe adapter?

I totally get your point and can't disagree with it. But I really love the magsafe connector for power. It's just so nice. usb-c feels slow clunky in comparison. Just for a straight power supply use case, I think magsafe is superior to usb-c.

So I wonder if anyone is contemplating an adapter? There's probably going to be too much of a mismatch of power requirements or something to make it viable.
Good faith answer?

Supply chains. Good ol’ supply chains.

The “Mac” is really the “MacBook”—very solid majority of devices sold are laptops, followed by iMacs, then minis, then a teeeeeny sliver of Mac Pros.

Well, probably. People infer it from quarterly earnings. Apple no longer breaks it down explicitly by category. But it’s a very safe assumption the biggest selling Macs, by far, are laptops, and they are prioritizing silicon for those.
They’re high end consumer-grade safes. Which in the world of commercial-grade security, is also known as “not a safe”.

So, depending on your perspective, they’re either really good, or entirely unusable.

True, Musk's lawyers haven't accused Twitter of lying. They've said Twitter is withholding information that Musk is entitled to (I had to go read the letter). And yeah, the contract gives him very broad rights:

> Section 6.4 Access to Information; Confidentiality. Upon reasonable notice, the Company shall (and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to) ... furnish promptly ... all information concerning the business ... as may reasonably be requested ... for any reasonable business purpose related to the consummation of the transaction...

I think it makes perfect sense that any financier will ask "How many users does Twitter have?" And that entitles him to this information.
To expand on this: the molar weight of dry air is ~28g/mol, while CO2 is ~44g/mol.

So each increase in atmospheric CO2 by 1ppm corresponds to about 8.6GT of unabsorbed CO2. The Keeling Curve shows an increase of 1.86PPM from May 2021 to May 2022, meaning that the amount of CO2 emitted from all sources was greater than the amount absorbed by 15.7GT. So of the 29GT emitted by humans, 13.3 was reabsorbed.

Obviously this is not the whole story. The Keeling Curve shows that worldwide CO2 levels were already rising in the 50s and early 60s, when total emissions were below the 13.3 our biosphere is absorbing annually. But this is sufficient to show that a (substantial) reduction in human emissions would reverse the currently increasing global CO2 levels, and the greenhouse warming that comes with it.

The context of this thread is democracy and the rights of Americans.

I'm not even sure what "selectively attack an enemy" means in this context. What Snowden disclosed was unequivocally bad, who cares what his motives were? We are not comparing soft drinks.
I am 100% with you. To add to this, in my two work environments (office and home), my laptop is charged via my monitor with a single cable. WTF would I want an additional cable? My magsafe adaptor went into the drawer as soon as I got it. Magsafe made the charger included in my m1 macbook pro _less useful_. My previous charger was great for vacations as it could charge my ipad, nintendo switch, headphones, or laptop.

That said I'm sure it's nice for _someone_.

Edit: I just realized that the magsafe connector can be disconnected from the brick, and a standard usb type-c cable can be used thusly making the charger as useful as the old one, provided you buy an admittedly cheap in the big picture cable.
It's a mobile device. Mobile devices are designed primarily for consumption or interaction with walled gardens where your content can easily be monetized by someone else (like social networks). They're consumer devices with the emphasis on the word consumer.

As you say it's entirely an OS limit not a hardware limit.
It's really going to depend on how well arm64 is supported in your stack.

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

Korea is not a particularly pretty country in general. I think people got there for the culture, people and food.

Contrast this with Japan which is stunning almost everywhere. But with a very different culinary and cultural experience.

I like both countries, but if it was natural or urban beauty it is Japan hands down.

Well if we take a law to mean "forced on everyone" that's really the definition of "it to happen".
I was waiting for today to buy a macMini for my wife whose 2012 iMac died. So I'm unhappy as well and just bought a M1 macMini because I can't wait any longer.

I agree. It's not like there aren't plenty of improvements to be made, but I write a lot of async Rust and the limitations (which are well enumerated elsewhere in the comments) just aren't really an issue for what I do.
It might make sense to have runtime configuration that enables no-GIL mode, or just enable it automatically when importing threading, so that non-threaded workloads don't suffer.

At least as I understand it, in implementations like yubikey the FIDO2 secret is baked-in to the yubikey for security, which is good as it shouldn't be possible to remove the private key.

However the main issue I have is that the user cannot import their own secret into the yubikey, so you cannot choose to use your own secret vs the factory generated one, or choose to have multiple yubikeys using the same secret, which would be useful as you wouldnt need to enrol multiple secrets with each service.
This. I hate MacOS with a passion.

My cut n' paste pet peeve example of why macOS seems like a "toy" and not for serious business use:

The file save dialog box has this unbelievable limit of 38 viewable characters! I regularly have to deal with 50+ character naming conventions where the first 38 characters are the same among many files. It is a huge hassle of cursor navigation that is so unnecessary as I am looking at all this unused real estate in the dialog box.
I actually used to do this. Samba on Mac used to be great, so you could do a good hybrid setup. And once you had Samba working your linux users could jump in more or less if they could self support.

I think Samba went to GPLv3 and updates for it on mac seemed to stop entirely cold which killed this as the easy integration glue. Does anyone remember details? This great integration point went away and basically you end up tilting at windmills.

> But fast forward 20/30 years later, and people use whatsapp, FB, and telegram - I can't help but wonder if monopolies will work themselves out eventually as technology re-invents itself.

Maybe they will, but cancer eventually works itself out too. The problem is that the patient usually dies in the process. I'm not sure it's actually a good idea to wait for monopolies, monopsonies, or oligopolies to "work themselves out" because when corporations (and individuals) become too rich and too powerful they can place themselves above the law and do as they please.

A situation where a few corporations and individuals are essentially sovereign entities equal to the world's governments doesn't seem like a sustainable situation to me. I think the governments representing us should have the authority to prevent such accumulations and abuses of power from happening.

I also think that when a government agency or somebody working for a government agency oversteps their authority, they should be thoroughly investigated, publicly tried, and (if proven guilty) punished without mercy. If, for example, the FBI steps out of line again, it ought to be shut down. If a cop summarily executes an unarmed black man for driving with a busted taillight, he should be guillotined.

IMO and incidentally, the only valid use case for cryptocurrency is the one Jim Bell outlined in the 1990s when he wrote Assassination Politics. Though that's probably not a good idea to actually implement in the real world, lest you have Elon Musk paying to have trolls whacked instead of just blocking them on Twitter.

M2 will outperform the M1 Pro variants on single core perf, since it is the same across all M1 chips apart from the memory bandwidth.
After some time using it you understand it works for everything. Essentially, it features simpler and powerful loops and recursions. So you wrote those differently and end up writing many things differently.

That said, I used it for a simple game AI at university. My AI was the best of the class and it was something like 30 LOC. I remember thinking I would have spend 5x more time writing the same thing in C instead of 1 hour (plus some tests and play session)
They didn't know that they had Cobalt-60 on the college campus, which would have made a superb dirty bomb. They did get their hands on some Uranium, though.

I'm confused about the display size. It's smaller than the 14".

Also, the small print is outdated:

> The displays on the 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro have rounded corners at the top. When measured as a standard rectangular shape, the screens are 14.2 inches and 16.2 inches diagonally (actual viewable area is less).

Oh that's for the pro
There was some dock from a 3rd party vendor that let you do more screens, but I can't remember which one...
Yeah. As soon as it’s got feature parity I am getting an m1 Mac to run Linux with i3. And no don’t mention magnet it’s not the same.
Not exactly - there are about three things in play

1. You cannot alter a company with code in the way you can with written words.
If we split the compmay-as-a-machine and company-as-people-operating-(in)-the-machine and compmay-as-people-adjusting-the-machine then the difference is more stark.

a company as a machine does run on written (and often unwritten) policies that humans adhere to. More and more now there is code doing the actual machine but but it is rare if ever it is a whole piece - maybe there are whole companies totally automated but so doubt it.

As such a big important part of being a manager - changing the machine to be more efficient - is just not (yet) possible with code. but when it is, managers will talk code and write code.

2. I am not sure where to go with the filing part. Yes in many companies there are so many jobs to get done that anyone getting their hands in and automating anything is a huge help. That person would be making a part of the company-as-machine. good. presumably they would do it ten hours a week to a professional standard.

is it the best way to organise things. No - again torvalds had hierarchical arrangement and hardly ever write code - but that belies the reams of code he wrote as examples, discussion documents, strawman and just test code.

Manager should be writing test frameworks or tools to build the documentation in Japan or whatever

3. The whole "pointing people at someone else who is expert". scream bottleneck to me. Screams that people are in silos, there is not enough brown bag lunches ot other ways to discover / get repeatedly told about how other areas of codebase work.

4. things like weird bugs and effects of the tech stack are great - exactly the sort of thing to put in a code review. Or a code review of reviews (which I think is another good managerial practise)

The 18% is for multi-threaded benchmarks.

They did not give any number for single-thread speed, so it can be expected that there the improvement is much less impressive.

They said that the little cores have been improved substantially, so it is likely that a good part of the 18% comes from the faster little cores.

Bipartisan Legislation to Strengthen Cybersecurity for Medical Devices
I have an older work laptop but a nearly brand new (comparatively) battery that's about a year, maybe 18 months old. If I'm actually using my laptop, it will last maybe an hour or two. I might get it to last 3-4 if I just have email up with the screen dimmed.

Not sure if it's Windows, too much work surveillance-ware, or just HP being garbage, but my M1 Mac will last twice as long as I've ever needed it to without getting plugged in. Even my older Intel MBP lasts most of the day.
How does this bode for anonymity and multiple identities?

I'm imagining a world where all PCs/Macs/Smartphones have FIDO/WebAuthn and there's no other way to log in. Can I setup up multiple IDs on my iPhone and decide which services get to be associated with which id? I get that supposedly iPhone (etc) will (may?) give out a different number to each service but they'll still be associated with a single account at Apple's level. Further, it's likely these services will ask for more info and Apple will give it to them.

As it is I have a different id for almost every service. I'd like to keep it that way.

> However the main issue I have is that the user cannot import their own secret into the yubikey

Where would you get this secret from in a secure way? How would you prevent a nefarious actor from exporting it and importing it into their own yubikey or similar?
You can, just like you can store your TOTP key in your password manager to have the security of 1FA again.

A site that doesn't want you to could try to use attestation certificates to force you to use a real vendor's keys which should never be extractable.
No, it absolutely doesn't matter for video or photo jobs, and no one is running multi-day simulations on one of these devices. If you're running such intense simulations, a theoretical 5% to 15% difference in performance makes no difference at all when you can pay a little bit more to get either a 14"/16" MBP or a Mac Studio and easily get a much more substantial 50%+ performance uplift.

The 13" MBP is a relic that should have been discontinued. It makes no sense for Apple to have kept it around.
You mean like this? https://www.apple.com/shop/buy-ipad/ipad-pro/11-inch-display...
Meh. I'm more productive when one thing has focus, so I prefer not having multiple applications open at once vying for my attention. One display works great for me ... I'd even shut my laptop screen if I could, but I use touch ID for authentication.

Maybe it's a failure of imagination on my part, but I've never been in a position where I thought that having more screen real estate than a large 4k display would be helpful. When I need to have more than one application visible I can do that; when I want to focus on one thing at a time I can do that too.

Looks like these will be "available next month". Usually they say when you can order, but I've not seen that detail. Anyone have more info on how to get my grubby little hands on one?
Yes, the code is correct.

That comes from the undecidability of any interesting property in Turing complete code. It means that if you are doing static analysis on your code, you have to decide if you are going with false errors or mark bad code a correct, because no analysis can always give you the correct result.

On this case, you get a false error.
Yes. On the other hand, the NSA illegally spying on Americans is bad. You don't need to know the motivations, it's just bad. You cannot build a robust democracy on top of such a shaky foundation.

They can claim "Snowden was a KGB mole!" but if they hadn't been doing such nasty things, there wouldn't have been something so damaging for the mole (or a disgruntled ex employee, whatever) to disclose. There will always be dirty laundry to disclose of course -- nobody is 100% clean -- but this was major.

This is classic "shooting the messenger".
Sure, but they are making tradeoffs, whether it be portability or profit. Either way, their machines and product tend to last very long relative to the competition, and they seem to be doing the most to drive down power consumption. Little to no environmental progress seems overboard from my perspective.
Agreed. That's why I mentioned in my root comment that Twitter board needs to fight this. Elon's line of reasoning is bad for Twitter as a company.
I have only had passing experience with Prolog, many moons ago.
