Shopify's revenue last year was $4.6m last year, and that's before expenses, so I'd say it's quite a meaningful contribution. But regardless, a $1m donated to OSS is still $1m.

Nah, it leaks. Besides the big leaks like Chelsea Manning, there are constant small leaks: things like anonymous sources to the papers, and via Congressmembers (who collectively leak like a sieve). A lot of that is intentional.
FYI, if you mean that it should disable JS completely then you can already do that in Settings -> Safari.
We spent a fair amount of time trying to get this executing fast on SQL. However, with spreadsheets you recursively compute a lot of values. You can do this in SQL with recursive CTEs, but it’s slow, they’re not optimized for this. They also of course won’t do smart caching and dependency management for the cache. Fundamentally, it’s possible, but then we’d need to start hacking on a DB engine to make it work as a sheet. We concluded it’s better to continue on our existing engine.
I've been thinking about the QR code fatigue that people are already reporting and ways to get people to think scanning barcodes is fun again and this is an interesting example.
Getting rid of the GIL will also immediately expose all the not-thread-safe stuff that currently exists, so there's a couple of waves you would need before it would be broadly usable.
Search for "micarta gears". I'm not sure if that is a specific brand or a more general term but it results in lots of pictures. The gears are made of cloth and some sort of phenolic resin.

Seems the technique is also used by some for making knife handles out of cloth and epoxy resin.
Because in a busy environment (where consistently more than one person uses the elevator) the scenario of making a wrong decision and having the wish to correct it occurs far less than the scenario where someone does not pay attention to which floors have been selected already and deselects your destination. At the worst case this means that you both miss your stop because you both did not notice.
> I think you missed the forest for the trees... it is a Q&A system not just a search engine. You can talk to it, you can refine your queries.

From the creators:

> We're building a better search engine for software developers.

Also no you can't "talk to it", I'm not sure where you got that idea. It has a "Ask a follow up" but that performs a new search with none of the context of your previous search (also this UI of sliding a modal up from the bottom and layering the results is terrible).

> Search was the first step in finding information, Q&A is the next logical step.

And we are clearly not there. Not only does this not allow you to ask follow-ups to refine but it doesn't give good results in my testing.
The lawsuit survived the Sheriff's motion to dismiss last August. It looks like the court is now considering motions for summary judgment from each side (the plaintiffs' motion is here: https://www.courtlistener.com/docket/59720358/160/taylor-v-n...).

It really is amazing how poorly organized these things are at Google. 5+ name transitions, deprecations, broken features, logins, etc. What are the leaders at Google doing all day?
But you claim Java can hot swap... I happen to know all about hot-swapping in Java, and it's only good for very simple debugging reloads... not at all at the same level as Dart VM. No one who knows Java would claim that.

Common Lisp is only hot-swappable when you're not running a binary, at least from what I know of SBCL.

So, it's hard to take your comment seriously. I am unfamiliar with Visual C++'s hot-swapping capabilities, but to claim the language itself can do it seems pretty ridiculous to me, as all you've got is machine code at runtime, C++ has no hot-swapping runtime and could never have one... which makes me think you're just confused about what we're talking about... I am not talking about debuggers here.
On mobile browser I noticed that autocorrect was enabled, which isn't great for technical inputs. I want "hcl", not "hello".
Tsar is a contraction of Caesar as pronounced in Slavic languages. The corresponding Byzantine title was Basileus, and while the word itself is unrelated, the title correspondence was very well established at the time (much like the use of "emperor" for Chinese and Japanese rulers, even though the titles in those languages are not etymologically related, either).
To what end? What new insight is gained from such a reframing?

I personally don’t think the individual features are as interesting as the overall framing and the fact that Apple is publicly announcing their intentions. The feature set will doubtless change over time - such is the nature of any software endeavor - but starting that journey is the interesting part.

Getting stuck on “but it’s just xyz dumb feature…” or “but they should have done x long ago”, etc. just obscure the more interesting fact that they’re explicitly embarking on this path to begin with.
> basic stuff like CUA

I don't care for the defaults either, but I also don't care for CUA, so if you had your way the defaults would be just as objectionable to me as they are now. Since you can't make everybody happy, I think the best way forward is to continue the status quo, so at least you won't be forcing configuration on users who were previously fine with the default.
>We can reduce losses from primary to secondary energy by transitioning away from fossil fuels because the losses for these sources are particularly high. This reduces the amount of heat lost from converting these raw fuels into a usable form, such as electricity.

This is false, fossil fuel power plants have efficiencies between 30% and 60%, solar 15% to 25% (or much less if you consider the time that it's dark), wind 20% to 40% (or much less if you consider the time it's not windy). I suppose you can ignore these things because the sun and wind are free resources, but the basic fact is that transforming heat into electricity is considerably more efficient than photovoltaics or wind turbines.

On the same day, PM Elisabeth Borne said France will fully nationalize EDF (only 17% left to acquire though).

I didn't say Samsung was third-world junk.

And what's bullshit about it is that the OS has no significance to a huge number of those users. If you're in the far east slapping together phones as cheaply as possible, you have only one OS choice: Android. Hence the "huge market share." But what is that share actually worth? People buying commodity phones are unlikely to be big spenders on apps or other high-profit add-ons that make the iPhone such a huge profit center for Apple.
People working in early stage companies often get more of a first hand experience working on both sides of the business/tech fence.
That seems like something is wrong - if this is a known issue with such capable hardware I'd find that shocking
At this time, I don't think there is such a right --otherwise Ancestry/genomics and other companies would exist in completely different form.

I mean, I agree it is a very valid question; however that genie is out of the bottle and I don't see it going back in.
This is good news IMHO because it encourages that companies compete for the best offer in that space as they go.

In some way it reminds me (with all the differences!) of how things like cryptocurrencies could remove the state from a monopoly.

Good news for me this announcement!
Interesting statement, given that modern IDEs trace back to Lisp and Smalltalk graphical workstations.
I found this article disappointing. Neither Joule, Watt(seconds) nor any kind of energy potential or entropy were mentioned. The "primary, secondary, final, useful" categorizing seems arbitrary to me an i have doubts about its usefulness. In the end of the day, energy potential is nothing intrinsic to matter, it depends on what you can and will do with it.

In the diagram, the Oil, Wood and Coal chains are exclusively about burning that stuff. Oil and Coal are a climate problem just due to the fact that people dig/pump them out and put its carbon onto earths surface, burning it for heat is optional here. Think plastics.

This article gives me a odd feeling.
This is the first I have noticed them reporting power draw. It seems immoral to run it for anything that doesn't help stop global climate catastrophe. (Presumably global thermonuclear war would suffice. But carbon capture afterward would be hard to arrange for.)

Wondering if they measure while benchmarking, or add up max power ratings of the chips.

Did any old mainframe ever burn like that? E.g. the first big USAF missile tracking system, the one that filled four floors of a custom building?
Okay, find something like Gaia Terrain for Godot ?

To comment on the dynamic DOM - we're displaying up to three answer types (text, code, links) for each question. We're loading them independently to get information to the user as fast as possible. The alternative (in this state) is to have all of them wait until the slowest component finishes. We're still in the early stages of development, so either way it's not going to be perfect. I can see how this can be a poor experience for some - we're working on it.
You can do whatever the F you want. I do not care. Neither do most people in this world.

(Same film on both; the one on YouTube seems to be a slightly higher quality transfer.)
I'm curious as to why they didn't bother with antialiasing on the demo images - the performance effect should be almost negligible for this scene on a modern machine. The render quality may be fine but the jaggies make the end product look less refined.
Oh yeah, that's indeed not great. For messages with up to ~5 lines, the bridge actually just sends several messages, but as soon as the message has more lines than that, it only shows the first line as a preview. I could've sworn it actually sends the first couple lines, then a "(full message at ...)" message, but apparently not (anymore) - would probably be worth opening an issue for :)
The X1's matte display is a tradeoff however in it's own way. You introduce grain and lose vibrance making it a worse display in any other use case. I would note that the 14 inch pro has some antiglare coating going on that actually works pretty well.
Are these ultrasonic toothbrushes actually using ultrasonic waves? I have an expensive sonicare toothbrush and a cheap noname $10 "sonic" toothbrush from the supermarket and can't really tell the difference between both. Both feel like a standard toothbrush with a phone vibrating motor put inside.
Thanks for the tips. I'll buy this for an academic setting, so self-assembly is out of the question unfortunately (procurement rules prevent that for the most part).

I was somewhat shocked to see that HDDs and RAM actually carry an insane premium when you get them from large corps - RAM easily costs > $500 per 64gb, which is almost double the market price. But I've also had bad experiences with HP, which seems to limit the selection of RAM sticks you can use to prevent third-party purchases.
Ford is bipolar. On one hand some models are pure garbage. Then on the other hand their F-150 truck is incredible. Mustang and new Bronco are also loved.

>- Configuration profiles cannot be installed, and the device cannot enroll into mobile device management (MDM), while Lockdown Mode is turned on.

>HMM ... there are hardening settings only available through Configurator or MDM profiles. Will those be defaulted on as well?

Yes, that one leapt out at me as well as kind of an awkward one with more compromises, painting with a very broad brush. It's obvious that some of the very powerful config profiles/MDM capabilities could be used for a lot of mischief, but some of them are also exactly what I'd want to be running myself if I was at a lot of risk, and some are both. Ie., continuing to have one's own offline based CA with proper Name Constraints could be handy for a group of people who want to try to better secure and keep private their own internal network services from anything short of a government physical assault, but if an attacker can slip on a profile with an unlimited CA your goose is cooked.

Perhaps Apple simply doesn't have the capability for fine grained control of those capabilities yet, which wouldn't be surprising given their path up until now. I'll be interested to see if over time Apple leaves this mostly untouched or invests in seriously improving it. Like it'd be interesting if you could boot into a special mode ala DFU though requiring password and with graphics up and have a bunch of toggles for various capabilities that would then be enforced in normal usage. Analogous to the Recovery Mode on Macs.
I hope my thought-process is very wrong on this topic, but given how politically divided this has become, the concerning thing to me is that these vaccine requirements are largely functioning as an idealogical purge of large parts of the military and government. This is not necessarily based on political party, but on individuals' resistance to complying with questionable orders. (Whether or not you see the vaccines as a good or bad thing: it's clear that a non-trivial percentage of the country doesn't trust the rushed vaccine process, the ethics of trying to force it on everybody or become unemployed, or the overall cost-benefits of these vaccines given the relatively trivial risks of Covid.)

Entering what might be an unprecedented down economic period in American history where there will likely be significant civil unrest and NG in the streets, it's a bit worrisome that the soldiers who are perhaps a bit more resistant to blindly following questionable orders are drummed out through this process.
'Proof of Authority' sounds an awful lot like the regular banking system.
Yeah I don’t buy the argument that we would have to do it again immediately. Unless i’m wrong- which I may be - adding an octet would increase the number of IP addresses x 255 give or take. Using the excuse of running out of addresses to do an unnecessary wholesale change is my definition of really stupid.
That would make it unknowable whether he existed, it would not mean we have reason to believe he didn't.

This is not like physics where it's natural to assume something didn't exist if the proof for its existence is not strong enough.
This is it exactly. It opens up the door to even more complexity in the design...

Now that you can unselect floors, if the elevator is on its way to the 5th floor and you unselect it, should it skip that floor mid-movement?

If there's only one floor selected, we'll probably want to disallow unselecting it while the elevator is moving, but what if you just hopped on and it hasn't moved yet?

This would probably make for an interesting interview question.
I would like to read more about the Clovis Cartel phenomenon, but finding more info about it is tough thanks to lots of clutter regarding criminal cartels. Got a good link I can check out?
Confused by your reply. It is absolutely all marketing. Driven by data. They know their market, and the market for an 8GB M2 Air is not the HN crowd. Further, they know that the HN market exists, and will pay more for 16GB.
I realized some time ago, not wanting to install drivers, that a lot of office printers now have some janky webinterface that also allows uploading PDFs to submit as print jobs. This will turn a malicious PDF into perfectly safe paper!

Now whatever cursed embedded software on the printer reads the PDF is probably a lot easier to exploit than an updated PDF viewer, but that's not what these people are going for.

How Much More Data Do I Need? Estimating Requirements for Downstream Tasks
I have used it for about a year now, and haven't need to change them yet. It comes with 2 brushes in the box, and I'm still using the first brush, it is not showing any signs of wear.

The main thing is that you do not need to brush with any friction. You just move the brush gently over your teeth, so they barely wear.

For me this is also why I like it. With traditional hand brushes, I'd wear them out in 3 months or so. In hindsight this was a clear indicator that I was pushing way to hard on them.
I really dislike that there is so much social control :( In theory is to protect you. In practice it can and is misused in so many ways that it should not be even allowed without a judge authorization.

> Remember it's not 8gb of dedicated RAM. It's 8gb shared with the video subsystem.

Just as it was before, with the Intel chips. Sure you had 64MB of eDRAM or whatever they called it as a cache but you were still using system memory for video.
I think the perspective the people involved have matters a lot. If you just view what you're doing as your normal job, you don't even need to lie about what's going on, you just don't even talk about it because it's a mundane detail. When you conspire to do something everyone involved knows is illegal and wrong, your guilt weighs more heavily and you start slipping.

Magsafe is not a 'this or that'. The other end of the magsafe cable is type C with a standard type C power adaptor. You can bring a Type C cable instead and it works just fine.
Thanks for getting back to me! I didn't know about evaluation in the current context, which should let me inspect and explore the environment like I wanted to.

To clarify for anyone reading, `eval-defun` needs to be called with a prefix argument to instrument the first function, and `edebug-instrument-callee` (`I`) can be used to instrument the function following point in edebug's source-code-buffer, which I think is what you reffered to as a backtrace; I printed the edebug manual and brought it to work with me, in which I see that you can get a real back trace by calling `edebug-pop-to-backtrace` (`d`).

By `disassembled `, I meant bytecode, which after thinking about for a bit, maybe it could be done with lapcode, which is like bytecode made of s-expressions, but what I'd really want is a way to see the stack. Anyway, that seems like a whole 'nother beast, outside the scope of edebug.

Edit: I was looking for an evaluation list, see `edebug-visit-eval-list` (`E`) and `edebug-update-eval-list` (`C-c C-u`) c:
This is exactly what we think. And yes, we definitely plan to do better with space efficiency
yet ruby on rails and ruby is in decline. its getting harder to hire younger developers in this field, many don't even know what Ruby is or cares for it.

Seems like its another PHP type of situation, one which companies will move away from in the coming years. Not the fault of the ecosystem or language but simply because it gets expensive and the talent pool shrinks, not a good driver for business decision makers to back.

edit: i really dont understand the downvotes here I am simply mentioning the changing requirements in many companies that used to be on RoR that cannot find enough senior developers with the budget they are used to, to the point that they are moving to a new platform. theres just not enough RoR jobs and not enough RoR senior devs in the marketplace today and it will be far more bleak in the near future. there's not a lot of new minds coming into RoR and thats the talent pool you are gonna be stuck with if you keep the trajectory. Ask any new graduate and what tech stack language they are using, I'm willing to bet it isn't Ruby or RoR. Their attention is in Javascript or Python or more niche languages like Rust/Elixir/Clojure
I was all prepared to answer this with "so Reuters reporting something makes it true?", only to discover that, in fact, Reuters reported no such thing.

Reuters makes two claims:

1) The FBI talked to Apple (duh)
2) An unannounced plan to implement fully E2EE backups was no longer discussed with the FBI at their next meeting

Both of those things might be true! Reuters isn't known for just making stuff like this up, like, say Bloomberg, but the article specifically says:

"When Apple spoke privately to the FBI about its work on phone security the following year, the end-to-end encryption plan had been dropped, according to the six sources. Reuters could not determine why exactly Apple dropped the plan."

So we've got an unannounced product, which the FBI didn't like, which Apple stopped talking to the FBI about (according to some leakers at the FBI).

This does not add up to "Apple dropped plans due to pressure from [the] FBI/DOJ". It adds up to "secretive company discusses plans with secretive agency, and some stuff about that conversation leaked".
One can wonder how much info for the hack was collected during the interviews. "Tell me about the security protection you architected for your validators".
Yet according to the article, the malware was introduced by the "candidate" opening a PDF; I'd expect most senior developers to know better than to run a random script from a company they don't have an ongoing relationship with without looking at the source first, especially if they have sensitive credentials on the computer they're using.

But you never know.
I didn't know there were 3 more Azules! Which would you recommend getting after the original? Wikipedia mentions Stained Glass of Sintra, Summer Pavilion and Queen's Garden.
yep if that were your goal it would be way more cost effective to get a zero day from just not trying that hard with security practices. Not having any security knowledge on the team. Not patching/upgrading dependencies with security bugs.
Thanks, that's a good data point.

I'm wondering especially what the tangent for future developments will be. Most of the large language models are out of my league anyways (e.g. the new yandex russian-english model was trained on 800 A100s and needs 200GB of GPU ram to fine tune).

So maybe it would be more effective to go for high speed instead of large capacity. But then you probably end up with a custom chassis and PSU since 4x 400 watts are not something that you can use on most off-the-shelf workstations.
My argument is as sound as the English understanding out of the sentence.
Your apps have no permissions until you allow them. If you install spyware and it wants all your contacts and files it has to ask. You simply select "no" and then remove it.

Apps would force you to consent to eg contact permissions "in case you want to share something to a contact" and then harvest all your contacts. Apps can no longer use that pretense.
