It gives me headaches just thinking of it.
I thought this was already built-in? My friend had a setup like this back in 2017? I guess he was probably using one of the various apps- a lot export in "NDI" format, which you can search for.

Less related; I bought a z-cam e1 off ebay a back, it has nice wifi streaming, but it's semi-complicated a protocol (make http requests to grab each frame) & no one has yet written a gstreamer or whatever plugin so we can easily v4l2 it back into a webcam. But there's plenty of other active & neat Video4Linux pipes & tools out there, to make virtual webcams with(e.g.: webcamoid[1])!

>And then of course there's grafana which is definitely not for the feint of heart.

If you just want canned dashboards there's so many premade Grafana dashboards that work seamlessly with Prometheus /exporters. If you aren't customizing you can get a lot of mileage out of the premade stuff.
No, it was extremely easy and I was surprised about it. Just install Parallel, select windows 11, wait a bit and it’s done.
Can someone summarize how this compares to how things were prior (if there is even any change at all)? Does this make it easier or harder to sideload apps, for instance?
> I recently tried using a 486 + CRT monitor setup. The speed at which your keystrokes appear on the screen is simply astounding.

Use a fast editor like Sublime Text or even something like JetBrains IDEA with the zero-latency mode enabled and the editor delay will be single-digit milliseconds.

Get a modern 120Hz or more monitor (search for gaming monitor) with low latency and your display lag will be less than 10ms.

This is wonderful news! If anyone is interested in experimenting we built an API that makes it very simple to add WebAuthn (passkeys) to your existing web app.

It’s available at https://passwordless.dev

Note: We also maintain the open source fido2-net-lib, the API just lowers the friction for devs.
Forced by developers that refuse to make the necessary investment in producing native applications, because — with features like web push notifications — the poor web UX is something these developers consider “good enough”.

This thread is about actively facilitating that kind of behavior by developers.

Well, this is pretty much Google Docs or any Open Source clone like Nextcloud or LibreOffice Online I guess. It's surely possible though to write something like that with a very lean UI.

I think many Web developers go by default for something more complex though because it's not necessarily more effort. And well, there are already a bizillion similar apps.

I've been looking for replacement home networking gear the last few days - I still don't understand Wifi 6 vs 6E, but mostly what I wanted to say was when the Wifi4,5,.. naming came out a few years back my response was "ugh, stupid marketing" and now that I was actually having to look for hardware the difference in actually comparing functionality with linearly increasing numbers is so wonderful :D

That said, what exactly does E imply? I was really trying to distinguish devices using separate 6ghz backplane, and that was annoyingly opaque to me as a person who writes does code but aggressively avoids anything networking :D
Parallels currently supports it, but for whatever reason it's Windows 11 only.

The idea that Mx swapping to NVME is essentially no-op from performance perspective is patently wrong.
> Don't the RPI boards require blobs to boot the GPU, which boots the rest of the board? And hardware video decoding requires paying extra and using a proprietary blob?

Yes, Raspberry Pi hardware is stunningly awful and succeeds only through sheer ecosystem size, community dedication, and a company that's willing to ship something that works and try to make the thing reasonable in spite of having built it on completely unreasonable Hardware.
I'm not saying they should, just disagreeing with the idea that it's a proven thing. Apple likely has many reasons for not selling a user-configurable Mac, but I don't believe "users don't want it" is in that list of reasons.

For example, customers definitely want lower prices, and a modular/user-upgradable Mac would clearly offer that (e.g. upgrading the stock hard drive with something much bigger, faster, and cheaper). So to say that Apple doesn't do it because users don't want it is simply wrong.

Various strategies that trade off security vs. convenience. Most secure is probably something simple like printing it out and putting that in a fire-proof safe. But there are lots of options. For the non-tech parents or some such, a nice pass-phrase would probably work well as the secret.
Growth is overrated. We sorely need to have financial architectures of capital that don't depend on the assumption of endless growth.
What gives merit to an argument is whether something has been researched and the accuracy of information behind it, not the occupation of the person presenting it.

It's just incredible to me that Apple saw how much people hated IE and decided "You know what, let's do them one better".

Really doesn't help that they've pull so far back from open standards. They used to champion OpenGL, OpenCL, and open web standards, now they are working like Balmer's Microsoft. Everything internal and they sabotage open standards. Either by not implementing them, or obstructing all evolution at the standards committees.

Before we get too excited by the title of the article which looks too good to offer what you may think it offers, in reality it is still virtualization with in macOS allowing Linux to be run as a guest and not a full installation.
I have worked on big companies that do pretty much all of this on Mac. I agree that it might be harder to do than on Windows, because there is so much industry know-how on the MS side. But there is no real technical barrier for this to happen.
That's badly phrased. They're referring to the gravitational equivalent to an experiment where magnetic fields not evident in a particle's path affect it anyways due to the uncertainty principle meaning that the particle can be found, with some probability, to be in the area where those magnetic fields can be observed.
I have to say, as a kid, I watched my productivity going from 286 to 396 to 486dx to Pentium just skyrocket. I went from writing config.sys & autoexec.bat files just to get my games to run to running mIRC while my mom was screaming at me to get off the phone line. Modern innovations just don't provide that level of change for the end user, no matter how Apple spins it. I wonder if we'll ever get that again.
I don't understand why the new M2 MacBook Pro with Touch Bar exists.

The universe is infinite and continuously expanding. This cosmological scale, the monumental distance between celestial objects in deep space, would make it quite literally impossible for any extraterrestrial to feasibly be aware of or make contact with humans and vice versa. Even if we could travel beyond the speed of light, we'd still probably never make contact; there would be too many things that could go wrong. It's depressing to think about.

Space limits everything, and is the simplest solution to the Fermi paradox (following Occam's razor).

1. Fair on ICE. But if only one party is NATed, then you don't need STUN (or TURN if there's CGNAT involved.)

Now a days I mostly always use either graphql/openapi depending on the history of the project and the preferences of the team. So there typically is a spec for the API.

I usually prefer a code-first approach and the open source tooling is able to extract the spec for me from annotations - which becomes a centralized location for exploration or generating clients.
Virtualization.framework is the hypervisor itself, you only need simple tool to launch it. You probably could just copy-paste provided code into eg. https://github.com/gyf304/vmcli. However macOS 13 beta currently seems to be only available for registered developers.
thanks i will check it out that looks interesting
My work machine has one, and I use it to display status information, give me a proper Rub Out key, and for soft keys to insert certain Unicode and macros that I need occasionally, but not often enough to remember.

I think it would have been better accepted if Apple make it more customizable right out of the box, instead of relying on half-baked solutions from tinkerers to program it.

In my opinion, it should also have been in addition to the function keys, not a replacement.

There are practical considerations. You need top end device with mobile connections to drive experience similar to Carplay or Android Auto with fancy map animation, fast touch response time and music streaming apps. That device cost at least $700+. Nobody wants to use slow as death chromecast like IoT to drive car experience when you have phone in your pocket.

Why build something when there is no demand? Besides there are all sorts of security consideration in not allowing random devices to change to many things in the car.
So India is ok with selling us to Russia, is ok with supporting genocide and somehow wants me to see it as something positive?

You are as cynical as Russia. You don't get to blame countries that provide humanitarian support and arms to victims for what country you supports started. You don't respect Ukrainians, because you want then to submit to Russia. And you would then looked down on them and called them disloyal Russians anyway.

You are on the side of genocide. You don't get to call Ukrainian politicians shitty with much much worst politics you support.

Feel free to move to Russia. Feel free to see pleasures of being ruled by country like that

Agreed, calling these things "MLMs" doesn't make sense. But they prey on the same instincts, and I think should be called out for doing so.

Maybe we need a new term for these types of businesses. "Contract Predators" sounds about right. Maybe "Risk Pushers."
This seems like a positive change, or at least a non-issue. It’s not a big deal to ask developers to check a “I know what I’m doing” box.

However, I’m not sure how big of an attack vector they’re closing here. I’m thinking of two channels:

1. Drive by installs when someone uses a public charger or another person’s computer to charge while using their phone

2. Users being guided to install malicious apps themselves under the guise of fake support or similar setups.

These just don’t seem like major problems to me. (1) could probably work if you were targeting an individual, but it doesn’t seem like this is the weak link. For (2) I can’t imagine anyone who goes to the trouble of installing xcode and deploying to their device wouldn’t be willing to just check that box too.

As part of our commitment to security, Apple regularly engages with third-party organizations to certify and attest to the security of Apple’s hardware, software, and services. These internationally recognized organizations provide Apple with certifications that align with each major operating system release.

It's not a BSD vs. Linux thing. It's the entire software stack including user space, e.g. how much is the CPU woken up by silly background tasks doing useless things. That thing can be fixed regardless of the underlying kernel if people care enough. The total investment in desktop Linux is tiny compared to what Apple puts into macOS.
Speed _is_ all that matters. Who cares what the hardware is as long as it responds quickly to my commands?

Even if that’s not the case though, still dont see how it’s different than app notifications.

The US rounded up Japanese people and put them into concentration camps during WWII, the second amendment made no difference.

While I agree that there will be more demands for the all-in-one coder+subject matter experts, I think that coding will have to fundamentally change for it to become expected of everyone.

Right now, we professional coders make our living because we have trained our brains to think like a computer does. It's why we can tell them what to do, but it means that we simply don't think like a "normal" does. As long as that is true, I doubt that it is possible to be as common as typing skills.

If it is possible to develop a programming language that is high enough level that it can actually be written by a normal who thinks in normal, human ways, then that might change things. Or if it possible to build a computer that thinks in human ways enough that you could give it natural language direction like you would to a human, either of those would render the skill of "thinking like a computer" obsolete, but I'm pretty sure that the solution isn't going to be "everyone is now expected to think like a computer." That's just too hard a lift for most people.

> I don't see why not. With M.2 SSDs and DIMM sticks you've got quite a thin minimum footprint.

The memory used in Apple laptops is not the same type of memory that you find on a DIMM. The architecture is more like a GPU, with high-speed memory placed as close as possible to the CPU.

Nobody complains that they can't upgrade the RAM on their GPU because we all understand the benefits of putting it on the same PCB. Apple did the same with CPUs.

> Framework has designed a laptop with some excellent repairability and they're just a small team with extremely limited funds. Tech giants like Apple should have no trouble coming up with similar devices if they actually cared to do so.

99.9% of consumers do not care about upgrading. They wouldn't be opening their laptops and trying to swap out components even if they could. It's not reasonable to expect Apple to compromise the design of their system to cater to the vanishingly small minority of customers who demand such features.

For that minority of users, companies like Framework exist to fill the void. However, let's not pretend like the Framework laptop is on par with an M1/M2 Apple laptop in terms of speed, size, power, battery life, or really any other metric beyond ability to swap out parts. They're cool laptops, but Apple's highly integrated products are on a different level entirely.

I have a question regarding "mainline" that I hope someone could help clarify.

What is the difference (in terms of coding, etc.) between mainlining support for a chip into Linux versus pinning it to a specific kernel revision? What makes it easy to bring a chip up on a specific kernel version,but not easy to submit that to the mainline kernel so future versions of the kernel are compatible?

Are there significant changes between kernel versions that require someone to be an active maintainer for the specific chip, making sure changes to the kernel stay compatible with the chip? And thus most manufacturer don't care enough to keep supporting future versions once they get on specific kernel version working?

Attestation is an option in the FIDO ecosystem, and it is up to each website whether or not attestation is needed. Attestation is often required in enterprise settings. While consumer adoption of WebAuthn is incredibly low, the introduction of passkeys and multi-device credentials looks poised to change that.

For consumer scenarios, attestation is often not a requirement. In that case, FIDO offers the "none" and "self" attestation modes. None conveys no attestation. Self attestation involves a per-website key pair. Either of these modes are privacy and DIY friendly.
That’s not what forced means. Consider that there are developers who have apps with no notifications at all. For some, something is better than nothing.

Personally I like web notifications, if the site doesn’t implement them well then turn it off for that site.
You’re drawing an arbitrary line. The majority of digital advertisers are using digital advertising because the value is quantifiable through attributable revenue.

There are certainly a minority of major brands that operate as advertisers with awareness campaigns — sponsored hashtags are a good example — but if you read the Twitter filings, it’s very clear that their focus is performance based advertising — and that’s where they see their future, too.

Maybe a decade ago you could have said that advertisers were just trusting platforms to deliver value, and that ad-fraud could make or break a platform if they got caught, but that’s not true anymore, it’s a much more sophisticated market. Advertisers aren’t (as) dumb (as they once were).

Brand safety is a whole other kettle of fish — that’s a concern across all types of advertising, and not relevant to the audience, rather the content of the platform.
