ya ya, having the feature/capability is a nice to have for some web apps (web, the platform apple's been restricting/hating/building against for more than a decade), and even in that space more notifications is debatably not a good thing, but trying to also say it's not newsworthy, not a feature to dwell on from WWDC etc. Apple has a habit of making flashy announcements for stuff that's either not news/been around, or could just be rolled out in updates (like for example almost all of the silly messaging updates/features?)

The web was created to serve users. Users benefit from rich web apps.
Every website: ‘Allow notifications?’

Every answer: ‘GTFO’
Yup. If this isn't allow/disallow by web site, I'll be turning off all Safari notifications. Even so, aside from messaging apps, I pretty much have notifications turned off already.

Native apps is not why the web was created by Berners-Lee and gang, but a certain segment of the web has been chasing the desktop-like experience since, on, 1990-something. The obsession with the desktop experience, and the associated inferiority complex, are pretty much part of the web DNA.

There are plenty of dark patterns in macOS. For example, macOS will trick users into thinking that the apps they want to use are either broken or malicious if developers didn't pay Apple $100 a year and Notarize apps. macOS has increasingly become a platform to sell iCloud subscriptions, as well.

Hmm this + the new API to check whether an app has been installed from the AppStore (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/storekit/apptransa...) makes me wonder what we’re in for
That is true although I suspect it might be like an ant and us -- the ant certainly interacts with us but does it, can it, know anything about us? Maybe the output of AI is all around us and we are simply (now and forever) incapable of "seeing" it. My other hunch is that communication at that level isn't actually required in the traditional sense, and anything that would need to be communicable is done so via truth seeking.
I found bugs in the position of text along a path using baseline etc. I need to dig up the code to find it.
In an ideal world voters would rationally consider leaks, blame would be allocated appropriately, and the importance of the whole situation would be weighed against other concerns.

In the real world voters are at the mercy of cognitive and other biases, tend to blame the current government no matter what, and a leak's importance depends as much on media attention and trivialities like how close the leak is to an election as it depends on actual merit.

So, even true leaks can be effective tools to remove a government you don't like.

Suppose some government opposes the U.S. in some important way. That government then gets voted out at the next election due to a leak. Would you care if that leak came from a CIA mole? I would. I doubt the CIA would investigate and reveal foreign corruption or illegal overreach purely out of the goodness of its heart.
It's annoyingly ambiguous. The "on Apple silicon" and "full Linux" strongly suggest it's bare metal. (Why say it that way if it's not?)

But the title is "Create macOS or Linux virtual machines", which strongly suggests it's not bare metal.

But sometimes people write titles that only hit the biggest highlights, and the title may not mention everything that's in the video, so it's not impossible that it's Mac VMs, Linux VMs, and Linux bare metal.

Can someone tell me how big of a difference in performance the missing fan on the air will make against the pro 13”?
Interesting that you state there are missing features.

I remember a speech given by one of the leaders of Mac development at Microsoft saying that new features are tested out on the Mac first, and if they work out, they're brought into the Windows version.

Is that no longer the case?
I was exposed to Common Lisp in college in a "Programming Language Concepts" class, almost 20 years ago, and it didn't "click". I got no help or assistance or explanation, and this was pre-youtube and Google so it was hard to find an answer to "why is this happening?"

But I gave Clojure a try despite the bad taste in my mouth Common Lisp left, and it was def worth it.

Not sure why you're being downvoted for pointing this out. She was responsible for "their" home. Not the tens of thousands of households across the empire.

It is not a zero-sum game. Some money spent on labor adds more jobs than others. For example, if I employ people building a road to nowhere, I have only employed the builders. If I build a road that is needed, more economic opportunities are unlocked.

And Intel has big.LITTLE but they're not using TSMC nodes. Apple comparisons run on OSX or Asahi Linux, which doesn't run x86, so the software/ecosystem is different. Etc etc.

No comparison is ever perfect, you'll just have to take the best data we have and run with it. Complaining that a study isn't exactly perfect is trite, once you get beyond the "junior scientist makes obvious methodological error" tier it's honestly one of the least useful forms of criticism, someone is always going to think it should have been done better/differently (and wants you to take the time and spend the money to do it for them). But science is about doing the best you have and trying to make reasonable extrapolations about the things you can't.

Single-thread benchmarks on big vs little cores will get you IPC figures, and then you can scale those according to clocks you see on full-load conditions, for example.

Or you can simply compare it to a future 13th/14th gen Intel i3 with big.LITTLE, or an AMD quad-core APU. AMD has SMT, that's an advantage, Apple has single-threaded cores but a couple extra little cores, it's similar-ish.

Nothing is ever perfect. You just make do. It doesn't mean we throw up our hands and scream that if we can't be accurate to 1000 decimal points then we can never truly know anything.

(You may not have intended this, so just FYI: it kinda comes off like you're pre-stating that you won't accept the results if they don't come out the way you like, that you'll find some other difference between the two to latch onto. And there will always be some minor thing you can latch onto, no two designs are exactly identical. But that's not really an honest way to approach science, merely being able to theorize some differences isn't useful and if you feel strongly about it then you should do a similar test yourself to demonstrate.)
Thank you for the feedback.

I am working on a beat up old Inspiron… I gotta think an Air can handle the work.
Your finger never slipped and hit the "play" button by mistake, blasting the last song you played at max volume directly into your ear. Happened dozens of times in the first year of having a touchbar (work laptop, not my decision), super jarring every time. Decades of having a physical "play" function button hooked up to do the same thing and it didn't happen once.

It's actually the opposite of an ad hominem: Shakespeare puts those words in the mouth of a violent and disordered criminal precisely to attack such sentiments, tempting though they may be to us when faced with outrageous behavior by lawyers. It is a warning to us to avoid throwing the baby with the bathwater, and the deplorable character of Dick is exactly to the point.

Other words of fiction on the topic, though placed in the mouths of real people who held something of these views (A Man For All Seasons):

William Roper: So, now you give the Devil the benefit of law!

Sir Thomas More: Yes! What would you do? Cut a great road through the law to get after the Devil?

William Roper: Yes, I'd cut down every law in England to do that!

Sir Thomas More: Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's! And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake!

Does it? The touch bar is something like 2170x60px. That's a tiny fraction of the processing power and data bandwidth compared to an actual screen. In terms of raw pixel count, it's only about 2x as many pixels as my old Commodore 64 would push every frame. Each of those pixels is a lot deeper but it's still probably pretty much a rounding error compared to how much is being dealt with for the internal screen, never mind an external one.

(Hell, is the central GPU even running the touchbar, or is there a specialized display circuit just for it?)

That said, my reaction to this whole thread is pretty much "I guess multiple external monitors is a reason to upsell you to a Pro machine" so we agree on that point :)
Yes, they should say nothing at all. Instead of saying things like "This means that every Mac Apple creates, from design to manufacturing, will be 100 percent carbon neutral."

Carbon Neutrality is branding and does nothing to reverse CO2 or climate change. It is all green washing.

Better for the environment is never buying another computer.

Yes, I am saying that the MacBook Air M1 I am writing on right now should not exist. That what short term gains I am getting from it now will end up causing all your kids to suffer. I am saying you are all sacrificing your children future for novelty and convince. I ams also saying there is no way out of this because we have built this Tower of Babel and what will happen now is out of our hands.
Single threaded performance is very useful for gaming, but I agree that the M1 is so fast that anything faster is just a bonus.
I feel uneasy dismissing this new way of things and harkening back to the more meaningful old days, because the crispy clear meaning back then often stemmed from war. When you had adversaries threatening to destroy your country of course it felt so much more fulfilling to train to be any number of supporting or active roles. Without that pressure, things seem to lose that sharp drive but perhaps we are better off. It is also probably true that we have not evolved to live in a state of peace, and have a long way to go as a race to become accustomed to it.
I don’t think I have seen a linked list used in production code in the last +10 years. Maybe there are some cases where it may be practical from a design perspective. Many langs have a list collection that one is supposed to use instead.
Sans the "contactless" cooling I'm assuming?
I own a 12" Retina MacBook and I am sad that none of the new laptops can really replace it. They're all significantly larger and heavier. The new MacBook Air is a replacement for the old MacBook Air, not the MacBook. It's a shame Apple have given up on the ultra-ultra-lightweight MacBook concept, considering that the M1 would be perfect for it.
I think it's an OK kind of harder though. It's harder in the sense that you have to more clearly express your intention to load a non-store app and take a reboot.

It's not harder in the sense of "you are prohibited from doing it".
> Why pay USA wages when you can hire a Canadian or Mexican at 75% the cost?

Where are these mythical cheap Canadians and Mexicans just as good as six-figure American talent? Where can I meet them?

We acquired something a while back in Montreal, Canada and it sure wasn't cheap. We actually got most of the team to relocate in the valley on O-1s but still have some guys over there but it's definitely not at 75%!

I mean, it might be different for devs who can't pass the stricter bar for US immigrations, but then you aren't hiring for the same positions anyways...

Yeah, only

- the processor has several times more transistors and cores,

- plus several special purposes devices for encoding video, AI tasks, and so on

- the video performance is several times faster

- the battery lasts 4 times as much,

- the RAM is several times faster,

- the SSD is 4-5x faster,

- the display has twice the resolution and extremelly improved brightness and color rendition...

and so on

Disk can have high transfer speeds but access time isn't at all comparable to ram.

I was interested until I saw it tops out at 8gb. My environment typically needs just over 16gb.
I'm following. Modular designs are not without tradeoff. Using memory on a board requires different types of memory (i.e. not LPDDRX), which have different performance and power characteristics. It requires changes to packaging and the overall design to facilitate that modularity. It changes their ability to share subcomponent designs with other products in their offerings. It introduces opportunities for commercial third-party modifications, which can be of varying quality. It requires a larger BOM. And it changes the mechanics of product tiering.

All of these attributes influence factors for which the mass market does consider when buying laptops.
I think some of it also the absence of cars in places you'd see them in the west. In particular absence of parked cars. I didn't realize that that was part of it till I learned that street parking is highly restricted in Japan and now I cannot unsee it. Similarly the tiny backstreets are super charming and also not car friendly. It's human friendly though.

Edit: another thing that really sticks out as adding to the charm is the more diverse usage of building space. You might find businesses on floors other than the ground floor and many of them are much smaller than you'd ever find a similar business in Europe and especially not the US. It gives a feeling that there are always things to discover.

From where I'm sitting a 15 minute walks gets to two schools, a grocery store, the library, two gyms, a bike path, and a soccer field. The tennis court is 19 minutes away, and the high school would be the furthest, at 40 minutes.

And this is in a smallish town, one advantage of which is that things cannot be that far away in a town that takes an hour to walk across.
For those 3 people who genuinely think that the touch bar is useful. And isn't it cheaper and lower-end than the M1 Pro/Max 14"? (gosh is their naming confusing)
"Since its inception, FIRE has received funding from a variety of conservative foundations, including millions from some linked to billionaire Charles Koch."
Previously, each developer had to do one or more of:

* use TestFlight for centralized distribution of pre-release apps, through Apple (with some lighter-touch app review involved), or

* use enterprise signing (which requires enrolling in a more expensive program and jumping through some corporate hoops, with your apps subject to deactivation if you abuse it) to install on an unrestricted number of devices theoretically owned by your company, or

* whitelist a pretty low number of specific iOS devices to install arbitrary apps onto — I think that limit is still 100 devices per year, per developer account

This sounds like it removes the whitelisting requirement from the third option. Hope it's enough friction to prevent the worst aspects of sideloading from taking hold.
Yes and no? My m1 MacBook Air doesn't have a fan and performs better than my Intel MBP in many respects.
UTM doesn't leave that much to be desired does it? I mean something first-party would be nice, but it's not like we're in a terrible state as it is...
20% faster. The chassis and display have been changed as well. (Not to say you’ve made the wrong decision)
The price/performance for the M1 air is impossible to beat. Anyone who just needs a good laptop at a reasonable(ish) price can grab that and be happy for years.
> Disk can have high transfer speeds but access time isn't at all comparable to ram.

I never said it was. I said _if_ it was, we wouldn't need RAM.
I agree that this particular aspect of the the dialog box is bad. But if something as minor as this keeps you off an entire platform, it sounds like making excuses.

I save ~50 - ~100 character filenames all the time. I even cut, copy, and paste bits of them in that little box. It doesn't feel like a big deal to me.

But yeah, it's the little things like this that belie Apple's reputation for attention to detail.
One of my favorite things about my 2020 13" MBP (Intel) is that it has USB-C ports on both sides, so it's a bit disappointing that Apple decided not to carry that feature on to the smaller M1 Macbooks. The 14" M1 seems like a big hit to portability just to get a few extra ports.
