I've been thinking about a future where deepfakes/AI are more everyday (which is soon).

I can imagine Apple doing some kind of hardware-level signing of camera and video data, so that any image shot by an iPhone/iPad would have a signature declaring that is was not edited by the user in any way. Details on whether RAW or any kind of auto-cleanup could be included.

In other words, a chain-of-custody kind of thing so that images can be asserted as real vs. created by a computer.

Depending on how such a system would be implemented, this would require "real Apple hardware" from the ground up.

Are there parental controls on Apple Watch and iPhone that make it easy for a parent to limit the kid to just messaging or calling the parents during school hours? I wouldn't even want my kid to see notifications from others, since the curiosity would be distracting.
That is OK, at least in the sense that there's no undefined behaviour.

I'm not sure it's also OK, because the memcmp suggestion you are replying to seems a bit suspect.

There's still the problem that comparing the uintptr_t's is not guaranteed to yield the same result as the pointers they were cast from. But that's merely implementation-specific behaviour, not undefined.
I do find the Boomer hate to be absolutely incoherent, but not new. Ultimately, the biggest factor is your economic class. If you're a boomer, but you're poor, you will live just as poorly as someone who's a poor Gen Z. If you're black and poor, you have far more in common on a day-to-day basis with a white poor person than with a black millionaire/billionaire.
People who will be getting this benefit have paid or will pay far more than $10k in federal taxes over their lifetime. You can view it as them getting a tax refund of their own money if you're concerned about helping anyone else with your money.

First of all, your calculation is completely wrong. 400W * 8h would be 3,2kWh which is a lot less than 2000W * 24h = 48kWh per day that is advocated here.

Second, the Macbook Pro which i use 8 hours a day has a 140W power supply but I'm sure it uses less than 50W on average.

- 50W * 8h = 0,4kWh

- 2kW * 24h = 48kWh.

The laptop isn't going to be the problem! Heating OTOH uses lots of energy so good insulation is the key.

That's not true, Humans are not more energy efficient than cars. Rather Humans are lighter than cars.

Okay, let's take a look at the context where the multiocular o was used: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiocular_O

I see that near it, there is an ef (Ф) with a very tall stem.

Why should that not be included as a standard unicode character? Surely it is used more often than the multiocular o.

You may say "it's a decorative flourish", which is of course true, but so is the multiocular o. Should we allow every conceivable decorative flourish into unicode? What is the standard for where flourishes become distinct characters?
As a child I was coerced to join the military by adults who told me I would run into incredible debt otherwise.

Coming from a poor family it felt like my only option, even with excellent performance in school (I lived in a small town).

Fortunately, my time in the military ended up becoming one of the most productive parts of my life but I still shudder at the thought of it happening to kids every day.

You are missing step 6, which is for iphone B to stop working after step 5. And part 6 would also include some kind of nasty "your phone has stolen parts in it" message to the user.

Just like the "don't boot with non-registered hardware", this is all software and can be changed. Maybe in future releases of iOS they change how this "check for legit parts" process works.

It hasn't got anything to do with the keywords actual meaning really... all of this is just to map the 7000-dimensional internal description space in SD to something we meagre humans can input and output. You can leave it free, but then you have to accept the result can be anything. Normally you do want to leverage some control of the process.

The keyword "4k" doesn't "mean" anything to the model, it maps to the internal space through the language model depending on its training on captions earlier. You could just as well have used any other way of assigning some parts of this 7000-dimensional vector, it just turns out these keywords are usable shortcut, just like specifying a camera model or an artist name in essence acts as a "macro" to the internal space.

You are speaking in extreme hypotheticals. I am unaware of any set of features that require a blockchain to satisfy them. Is there an as of yet unknown set of features that require a blockchain?

That "unlimited" thing only impacts a very small number of devices. It is a better headline than reality. Previously you could have two accidental damage incidents PER YEAR, which means four for a standard Applecare+ 24 months plan.

How many people, realistically, had over four accidental damage incidents in a two-year period wherein they benefit from this "unlimited" change? As I said, it is good marketing, a very niche change in reality.
Also they need to work day in, day out, for years, not just a couple of times.

Which can sometimes end up in James Webbification, as the more expensive and robust it gets, the more likely it's the only one and the higher the stakes if it breaks. So you make it more over-engineered and expensive.
That is certainly true. Though providing sources, let alone "credible" ones, would be hard. Personally, I am not that interested in the details and technicalities as this is where the deception is more likely to lurk.

These things might have value to you, which is nice, but they may or may not have any value to other people. Maybe ballet is a dead art. How much "value" does a mime artist or a lute player add to society? Your idea of value is totally subjective and driven by your personal circumstances. That is fine, but don't force others to subsidize your choices.

University used to be a place where you had to perform at an exceptional intellectual level across a balanced set of topics. Now, most schools have removed most/all of the STEM requirements for non-STEM students (or have dumbed them down to STEM for babies courses) and they are grinding out extremely mediocre task-followers with valueless degrees.
To note, it would be a waste of everyone’s time to scrutinize a product that has almost no users; it would need to have a really atrocious effect to make it worth considering.

The UX of Flash and Flash-dependent sites was often bad, too. Late in its life, full-Flash sites were the only ones that I had to sit and watch a progress bar to load… regular HTML/CSS/JS sites, especially with an adblocker, loaded instantly.

For sites that used a Flash component (e.g. YouTube), the plug-in was fussy and flaky and would sometimes not work for any discernible reason, sometimes requiring an update to fix it. HTML5 replacements have been far less cantankerous.

This misses the key property of such systems that make them remarkable. The computation involved begets new behavioral patterns that weren't enumerated by the initial program statements. The behavior is not just a representation of the human knowledge imparted to the system, but an emergent dynamic that is unpredictable from an analysis of the initial rules. It is a common mistake to dismiss the computational part of a system as carrying no informative or meaningful content. Just bracketing `the computation` as transparent and explanatorily insignificant is to miss a large part of the substance of the system.

Fraud requires intent in most jurisdictions. This looks more like gross negligence (and possibly embezzlement). In addition to, likely, a host of money transmission law infractions.
Yes, I keep JS disabled by default. For most websites, I will simply not allow it to be executed at all. If this breaks the website, I don't use the website.

For the small set of sites that are actually important to me, I selectively allow the minimum number of scripts required to make the site function well enough to do what I need it to do.

More apt analogy would be a workprint of a movie being leaked. This happened with "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" where lots of the special effects were still in progress so the workprint looked really cheap in some parts.

But the people likely to watch a workprint and then form their opinion on that is incredibly small.

Mostly yes: I use JS-blocking browser extensions, which (mostly) offer domain-by-domain control over JS loading. And only enable JS when the risk/reward ratio seems low enough.

Between the browser security issues & resource usage, anti-improved speed & UX, etc. - enabling JS is mostly not worth it to me.

Well, the link between whatever Carmack thought about FP and C, and Java and FP idioms, was tenuous to begin with. Yet you introduced it in your comment...

To give my perspective: Carmack was a latecomer in this, at least for the widespread programming paradigms community, and also remember game programming is a niche (so what worked there was unlikely to permeate to the general community [1]). So whatever Carmack thought (which I appreciate, since I hold him in high regard!) is unlikely to have had any sway in Java, Kotlin, Scala, and other proglangs adopting FP idioms. I distinctly remember back in that era, few people who were not gamers even knew who Carmack was (to my chagrin!).

[1] I remember an experience from my distant past, when interviewing at Vostu (a Zynga-like online game company), the chief engineer told me "we don't use frameworks here, just plain Java. Forget Spring, forget Hibernate, forget everything. We don't use them. Everything we do, we do by hand". (I didn't take the job offer for unrelated reasons). Note this is highly unrepresentative of the Java community at large!

Pamphlets are allowed inside the booth, but you have to bring it. They are sent separately in the mail some weeks before the election. At the voting booth they just give you the ballot. The ballot only has the brief descriptive text.

We have vote-by-mail as well, but the number of people who actually read the pamphlet and make an informed decision (rather than just briefly scan the ballot at the last minute) is small enough to matter.

>Apple has completely redesigned the internals of the iPhone 14 to make it easier to repair HN: <crickets>

Easier for who? Quote from the video:

"We're hearing reports of Apple continuing on the hostile path of pairing parts to the phone, requiring activation of the back glass after installation. Why in the world would you need permission to install a sheet of glass?! Using software to prevent the replacement of components with aftermarket parts gets a big thumbs-dwon from us."

Let's call it like it is. Apple is not doing you a favor for easier repairability, they're doing their bottom line a favor. If they actually cared, they wouldn't be so hostile to software lock you out of replacing a bloody glass panel.

The internal design is still greatly thought out though. I've been asking myself for years: why can't phone makers make phones with a mid frame that allow both sides to be easily swapped out, instead of one or another. Seems like Apple has cracked it. I hope other phone makers copy this minus the SW locks.
Separation of mechanism and policy is an important concept relevant to that. Proponents will think that is just execution of the policy of preventing drunk driving, which is relatively accepted. But it's a mandate for a mechanism to enforce such a policy. At some point, someone will likely push for that mechanism to be used to enforce other policies, citing the mechanism's existence as an argument that it's not really changing anything.

I don't recall OpenSPARC starting any kind of "ratcheting process" (whatever that is) in 2006 or anything similar when MIPS was made an open ISA so where is this giddy claim of inevitability coming from?

An open ISA is a small part of the picture since you have to then go from an ISA to an design and then from the design to a fabricable chip (imagine it cost you $X00,000 or more every time you compiled) and that last step has to be re-done for each process node for every fab you use. And then don't forget you need a compiler that's tweaked to generate code for your design that puts it on par with competing processor designs.

Only if people are stupid enough to repeat the last two years of nonsense. Take away all the fear mongering and testing and you probably wouldn't even notice covid was a thing. You'd get sick like you always do and just shrug it off as "that thing that was going around" like we all did in 2019...
If we define optimal play as never turning a win into a draw or a draw into a loss, then I think it's possible to play a passive-but-optimal style, with few traps for weak players to fall into. Also if a position is "lost" but it's very very non-trivial to see why, a stupid-but-optimal strategy is to resign or move pieces randomly. You need psychology to win from a lost position.
Notably the first time kasparov lost to a computer was basically a bluff.

The bot hit a bug that chose a strange move, and since kasparov couldn't figure out what the line was, he resigned. If he analysed the board instead of what the bot was thinking, he would have won easily
This brings back memories of the Xperia Z1 Compact (+ several later generations) that used this same design of gluing the screen and back glass independently to a mid frame.

Unfortunately they are not good memories. The slightest, barely visible bend or sub-par repair and the back glass would peel up in one corner and coat the underside of the camera in dust and condensation

I’m not sure I would risk buying a phone with this design again. Apple will have to have worked some serious magic to make it strong and robust
Totally speculating here. I wonder if this is preparing for a future where Apple encounters supply issues or pricing pressure caused by environmental and political turmoil. I could see the average lifespan of devices continuing to increase and more people using repair services. It also makes it easier to refurb devices for second hand use.
> ~25 minute 5k which most reasonably healthy adults could build up to quite quickly

For 5km, 25:00 would put you into the top 10% (median is 34:37).

https://runrepeat.com/how-do-you-masure-up-the-runners-perce...

That's out of those who post times in measured/timed events, so it would be an even better result compared to all runners, and better still compared to fit people specializing in other sports such as cycling. It's also for all ages. For example, in my own 50-59 age group that would be top 6% (median 36:36).

25:00 might not be all that impressive when you're looking on Strava, but in a broader context it really is closer to "well conditioned athlete" than to "reasonably healthy adult". BTW, since I know somebody will ad hominem at me if I don't say anything, I'm on schedule for 1000 miles this year and to that end I run 5km continuously (even on hills) at least once or twice a week. It takes a certain level of dedication independent of how generally fit you are.
