I’d argue for the MBPro keeping the eth port (and even going latest gen, like 2.5 or 10Gb), and the Air not including it.

I would argue that since Laura Foster doesn't have a Wikipedia page but her murderer Tom Dula does is evidence to the contrary.
You don’t have to do the entrepreneurial route to become a millionaire. Any tech job will make you a millionaire in your lifetime. If you make 100k/yr and save 30% a year from age 21 to 67 you’ll have $2.2MM in savings.

Found an Ars article that has some sales figures over time: https://arstechnica.com/features/2005/12/total-share/

Basically the industry was already shipping million computers yearly at the beginning of 80s and >100M units at the end of 90s. So I wouldn't say it's all that small numbers here
Yes. Learning Vim has had the best ROI for my time of any other tool I've learned over the years (git comes close though). Not only is it a great general-purpose editor, but it's available on every machine I interact with.
Computers are an inherently oppressive technology only in the same sense as any technology that isn't, like, a magical box that automatically feeds everyone on earth from thin air forever. There are certainly negative aspects to computers, some of which are touched upon in the article (my specific pet peeve is "middleman" apps like DoorDash or Uber whose sole value-add is to allow you to avoid talking to "the help" delivering your groceries, making your food, etc.). I think it's more productive to judge computers by their net "oppression", and for every Bitcoin or GrubHub there is an encrypted messaging app that stops the state from peering into an aspect our lives, an anonymity tool that lets people speak freely, or a Wikipedia. To use one facet of computing as an example, the populace in aggregate has more secrets than the government, so if each secret kept by the government via encryption adds 1 unit of oppression and each secret kept from the government via encryption subtracts 1, (theoretical, perfect) cryptography would clearly be liberatory on net.
That is a good point and had to think about if humans are like this by nature or were they been nurtured by the current society. So here is what I came up with this is like comparing present society to the 18 century where back then stuff isn't much available and so there is interest elsewhere for that dopamine hit of owning that new xbox http://www.paulgraham.com/stuff.html
So my guess is in the future the next dopamine hit will not be from acquiring new xbox but from other people (friends just hanging out all day) of the egalitarian and collectivism will be the result after almost a catastrophic scenario of depleting the earth of natural resources
when you can afford it without other commitments or burdens, buy the house. Best is to have enough cash reserves. As mortgages rates are going up, job instability with layoffs underway, could result in foreclosures, also homes purchased for AirBB and other rental property may go down in demand with folks back in-person at office. Many many factors could cause a market correction for home prices to drop. So if you have cash reserves for 20% or higher for down payment, now might be a good time. You can refi it when the mortgage rates drop in the coming years.

Yes, they still do.
I think it's an issue with some tools being "good enough" (majority of the free ones) + the feeling where you paid for something and it feels meh (or maybe it asks for paid upgrades, etc)

I tried Sublime Text once and then never bothered later. There wasn't anything that exciting about it that I couldn't do one way or another anywhere else.

The barrier to payment is higher if the comparison with a free tool is mixed. If there was one big thing the free ones couldn't do or they were much worse then there would be a case for paying for your tools
OMG yes, the retros at my current company are just full of platitudes (and that’s what people look forward to) and I hate it. People do bring up difficult topics but because want to get through every. single. topic. the difficult convos get rescheduled to yetanothermeeting so there’s time to talk about all the positive stuff (which, again are just platitudes, nothing constructive). I tried to change this and got shot down.

Otherwise (and I’m forgetting which thread I’m in here so maybe repeating myself), I have experienced incredibly valuable retros. They were structured but still fun.

And very much agree with the first paragraph. I also agree it could just be done on Slack, but I personally like having a daily meeting where I get to see my team all together… so long as that meeting is short (max 5 mins on a good day).
Theoretically, perhaps.

But keep in mind that a simulation is, well, a simulation. Artificial consciousness may be possible. It may also be possible to simulate something with a surface appearance indistinguishable from consciousness but not actually be consciousness, while actual consciousness would require very different methods.

When thinking about these things we have to draw a line between something that can fool gross human perception and something that is actually conscious. Right now we don't even know enough to know what the tools required to make such a determination would look like. It may very well be that, from an ethical standpoint, we'll need to ascribe consciousness to systems for year or decades before we're able to determine if it's real or the equivalent of a very convincing optical illusion.
Well that's what I figured but it doesn't make a lot of sense either way
> but the Jetbrains IDEs are simply better and more mature in every single way

That's just not true.

I have access to the full Jetbrains suite for free, yet I still opt to use Neovim or VS Code/Codium for most languages.

Jetbrains IDEs are great in many ways, but are objectively worse on several metrics:

* slow startup times

* slow initial operations until the JIT is warmed up

* even once warm, you always eventually do something that lags or blocks the UI, maybe barely enough to consciously notice, maybe for several seconds; and it really affects user experience if you care about latency - it drives me crazy each time

* plugins: VS Code has a wide range of great plugins, many more than the Jetbrains ecosystem and especially when it comes to more niche languages or functionality, Vim/emacs but also VS Code are much more extensible in general

* keyboard warriors: the Vim plugin is fine, and you can configure the Jetbrains IDEs to do almost anything with the keyboard, but you need way more arcane knowledge in the form of memorized context-specific bindings, and you always eventually forget something and need to switch back to the mouse. Vim and emacs are just much better there. VS Code is actually also better, because the interactions are significantly more customizable.

* Wayland / tiling WM / input lag: Jetbrains products really suck on tiling window managers like i3 / sway because they use native windows for dialogs. They also don't support Wayland natively, so they run through X server emulation which hurts input lag and brings plenty of bugs like weird dialog behaviour. In general the input lag is quite bad on Linux, it seems to be much better optimized on Mac OS

There are plenty of valid reasons why you wouldn't want to use their IDEs, even if they provide more integration and superior refactoring.
Let me phrase it this way: “being required to trust somebody” being a problem is the underlying problem. Why are there untrustworthy people in society?
For information indices like cac40 are price of stock without dividends reinvested. If you want something that represent the gain of an investor you have to look at "cac 40 gross tr". The difference between the standard index and the reinvested index is less visible in USA because a lot of companies chose to buy stock instead of paying dividends.

So using the mains indices like you do to compare economic growth or investor gains is meaningless.

First time but hopefully not the last time I heard this.
My argument, based on this thread alone, would be that Codium will always be... held back by its roots in open core project, with some amazing features (like remote editing) or plugins being unavailable. Codium developers do not "own" their core platform (they can't really fork it without breaking plugins), and they don't have much (if any) say in the future direction of it.
Given that it's not unreasonable to think that VS Code is not really that open, and a more desirable outcome would be for developers to support more open alternatives.
Can't you do outlier detection, and disable the AI if the input wasn't in the training set?
I had a Gifford S-100 machine. I bought a 40MB hard drive for it for $4K! (Closer to $12K if you count inflation.) All the software I was developing "sat in a little corner" of it, as I put it at the time; I was so happy about how huge it was. Those were the days!

They don't block source releases indeed, but only for unencumbered sources. What the ODM should probably have done is either make it out-of-tree or make an unencumbered implementation (if that is the problem at all) and ship that. Or maybe they just made a mistake or were lazy and will include it after the weekend when people are actually back at work.
Putting a lot of faith in this: “These extensions are uploaded by the official developers or by the community.”

Here’s an example of a simple C++ function, manually vectorized + unrolled for optimal performance on modern processors: https://stackoverflow.com/a/59495197/126995

Of all C++ compilers, only clang generates similar machine code from a straightforward source. And only with some special compiler switches, most importantly the -fast-math. Dot product of 2 vectors is a trivially simple algorithm, sum( a[ i ] * b[ i ], i = 0..N-1 ), I wouldn’t expect clang to auto-vectorize more complicated stuff. Finally, C++ compilers are designed to work offline so the optimizer can afford to spend substantial CPU time searching for a best optimization, a JIT compiler like Java runtime simply doesn’t have time for that.

I think most of us value our freedom more.

Most people don't think of it in terms of freedom, but freedom it is. With proprietary software:

- You don't know when it will disappear or be discontinued. Even your paid-for existing version stops working when the activation servers go down.

- You might be forced into an "upgrade" which breaks something you rely on

- That's not to mention issues like being able to fix bugs yourself, extend it, or understand it. I don't do this often directly, but something like being able to understand a file format my data is in or similar is common

I don't mind paying for things, but things need to be a lot better on other axes before this one becomes the most important.

My experience is that:

- Things I did decades ago are sometimes useful. Nearly 100% of the time, if this was in a proprietary system, it's gone or unusable. My LaTeX files still work.

- Companies switch between growth mode and cash cow mode. When this happens, the cost to me is almost always higher than the initial benefit over free.

- Which is better on other axes goes back-and-forth. An investment I make into a tool now doesn't mean it will be the leading tool in five years.

- Those sorts of long-term considerations are almost always more important than short-term technical stuff.

I originally read it as a different editor entirely than VS Code.

The slight startup delay for VS Code vs. for example Notepad++ is quite annoying. I wish there was software as cool as VS Code, but with ultra low startup time.
Not fair! Open-source, shareware, public-domain, freeware - been touted for decades now. But folks buy into all that and suddenly they're 'resistant to other people earning a living'.

Or I interpreted that wrong, and it's supposed to be a criticism of open-source? Then I agree. Open-source is a pox on responsible and reliable software, cannibalizing good software by offering free, bad software.
can you elaborate?

"I made something people seem to like, hopefully it can help feed my family" sounds more like a wonderful success story rather than shady (depending on target audience of course but that's the part I'd like to understand better rather than make assumptions)

Yup, it’s definitely not a money thing. There’s plenty of tooling I do pay for, but I like hacking on my editor.

Sure, you need to go deep sometimes to tune things how you want, but hey, that’s what we do, right?

The important point is that people have different priorities and will make different trade offs. For me I like lean, fast and hackable. For others it’s that they don’t want to have to understand or configure it. That’s totally fine.
I think developers do pay a Lot for hardware tools ( Mac / screen / custom keyboard / IOTs they will never play with and so on ). They just don't pay much for software tools.

Do you think that Covid-19 was a serious pandemic, effectively mitigated by vaccination - at least before omicron?

Do you think it is fair that sources that consistently claim the opposite should be deprecated by a resource that espouses factual content?

If so - that's most, if not all of the US source deprecations explained.

Can you think of a similar non-factual conspiracy that has infected substantial numbers of left wing sources?
Trust is everywhere. I eat at a cafe being trusted to pay later. In South Korea, I am trusted to have paid for my ticket upon entering the train (no one ever checked it). I trust every person I stroll past in a dark alley to not rob me at knifepoint. I am trusted by my customers to not deliver a backdoored codebase (yes, there is the letter of the contract, but really it comes down to interpersonal trust since they cannot verify it themselves). Etc., etc.

You should probably leave it to the Academies, given that others take the opposite general stance.

What the server /accepts/ is left to configuration (some still recommend, "Strict in formulating the output, loose in interpreting the input"). What is "legitimate" is another matter, and will have to consider the term's curriculum, also because other proposals are faulty (e.g. conventionalism: "/whose/ convention?").

> Permanent disability. Heart/lung conditions. Mental illness. Chronic fatigue. All from a young age.

Is there a serious study showing that the young and healthy (those w/o any comorbidities) are at significantly increased risk of these due to catching Covid itself? Those issues were affecting people long before Covid arrived.

QCovid predicts that that hypothetical 19 year old unvaccinated me has a 1 in 62,500 risk of "catching and being admitted to hospital with COVID-19". For context: what's the risk of ending up in hospital after a car accident in your part of the world?

> This simple focus on death rates misses the mark entirely

Some would say that two years+ of singular focus on Covid is what's missing the mark.

As my doctor keeps telling me, there are plenty of other viruses and plenty of other health conditions.
Seems that[0] clang doesn't succeed at vectorizing that, instead just doing a bunch of boring regular unrolling. I'd assume it wouldn't be too hard for clang to be able to understand that pattern, just noone has bothered to (and it won't pop up much in regular code because usually it'd be done with vector pushes and not a preallocated buffer).

Sure. But doesn’t change the fact that for me, when you have good beans, black coffee is much nicer without any added milk or sugar.

When you use cheapo beans from Starbucks or the super market, it’s difficult to make good tasting black coffee. So making it with milk makes it drinkable.
I always come back to vim. Sure there are "vim mode" options for VS Code, Jetbrains products, Xcode, whatever else, but there is a speed and ergonomics to regular old vim that none of those bolted-on modes have matched yet. And with some setup you can get the same LSP features in vim that you have in VS Code today.

Yes - I know that there are plenty of libraries or just do it in the browser stuff. But there's just a brutal reduction in barriers in a switch on to basic system that would let much more people through the door.

If there's a risk of oppression, it's likely to be due to the power of a small number of people to control a large number. For instance the people who can afford to employ a large pool of programmers have more control than those who can only write their own programs, or who at worst are confined to the user side of the relationship.

Since I'm not in that first group, my only hope is to differentiate myself from the last one. Hence why I enjoy programming for my own use despite note writing "software" for other people to use.
