Any moves Apple made now would wind their way through ASML et al., through fab construction and qualification, and then finally adapting their chips to a new process.

They could pull the trigger on the Power to Intel because they'd spent a decade+ of contingency planning, OS/app support, and acquisitions.

This isn't like that.

The Logitech MX Master series has a heavy, (optionally) free-spinning scroll wheel.

It's the best scroll wheel I've ever used: night and day better than anything else. Scrolling through a long doc is a flick or two, and it just keeps rolling along, until you touch it and it stops instantly. It allows amazing precision.

If only the side-to-side scroller was as good ...

The key point here is "... and hardly anyone noticed."

In theory, site reliability engineers and software engineers work together at Google to maintain existing functionality and check for regressions. In practice, regression checks can only cover what they've been told to cover, and if breaking a feature doesn't cause a metric to crash, Site Reliability doesn't have the information to know something is wrong.

The result is that generally speaking, Google prioritizes existing features by how popular they are (i.e. "Maintenance by Popularity") modulo how much of a stink someone influential can make if they screw it up (i.e. "Maintenance by Twitter."). If almost nobody uses the CC filter (and I bet, in the grand scheme of things, they don't), Google may not have enough signal to know they broke the filter unless someone had the foresight to add a metric to check search results on that query separate from the rest of the search result data (and at Google's scale, you can't just add a metric for free; in addition to eng-hours to build and tune it, the data has to be stored somewhere and teams have finite budgets for space that can only be grown by negotiation with the relevant teams managing the monitoring services or the project as a whole).
Anecdata: In recent times, to a high degree: programmers. I attended one music festival with a high presence of volunteers from the Esperanto community, and among these people, ~20% were programmers.

The grammar is mostly regular. It seems like the thing a stubborn introvert likes: You can hardly use it anywhere, but it has nice properties. And unlike Lojban, Esperanto is something you can learn to fluency fast on your own on the internet.
It's too bad that it took a long time for linux support for the cosmo communicator to not be an absolute dog and good luck porting to anything other than their debian flavor. Also good luck finding replacement parts if anything breaks! That's the biggest problem IMO and one that I feel most happy with MNT, Pine64, and Purism (availability of replacement parts)

How can you win if you don't play? <-- Philosophical rhetorical question

I get what you're saying and why you'd feel that way. I'm sure you already know what I'm going to say, and that I disagree because there's a lot of things you're saying that a newbro would say that are not as true as they seem at first glance once you've been going a while.

When I was a kid I used to think about my idols or the people who had things I wanted and it was so inconceivable to think that we're the same people and they they dared to reach for the thing we both wanted. Them being there first made me wrongfully feel like they had something I didn't, when in fact it's been there the whole time and just had to grab for it.

I think we both have some points, and we both have some experiences, but a thing I see a lot of Eve vets doing is badgering the fuck out of a newbro on the internet who just wanted to make a spreadsheets-in-space meme and get some upvotes on r/Eve. I think I'm teetering on the edge of being that guy, and that's counterproductive because I hope some day you come back so some person like myself can show you the finesse of being a digital space-terrorist.

It's the fact that an arbitrary and capricious decision by two private corporations or perhaps moralistic CEO gets to dictate cultural norms for entire society.

If visa and mastercard decide to block you, your business / income is dead.

> On the other hand, it seems that many financial things are set by international organizations

Not organizations, governments. Financial rules set by governments to cut down on money laundering, terrorist funding and other "financial crimes" are why payment processing is rife with liabilities and why Visa and banks have such strict rules. Without these rules banks would happily work with anyone that has money.
> Pretty much everything pre-englightenment is really smart sounding nonsense. Understanding it is mostly just useful as historical or anthropological context for how intellectual people thought at the time.

Plato's critique of democracy was written long before the period of enlightenment. It stands on its own to this day. There are countless other examples of philosophical works that hold up to scrutiny even when viewed through an analytical lens.
I find this interesting, if nothing else. My first question is what was the opportunity cost of focusing manpower to setting up on-prem infrastructure that now needs maintained? What on the product roadmap was sacrificed/delayed in exchange for the time on this project? What are the projected future hiring costs to maintain these servers (and applications like Cassandra!) going forward? Nothing is free, and at just 4-5 additional hires they will be giving back a large chunk of that $800k to employees. IDK - maybe that's a fare trade-off to pump up the common man with money instead of the establishment.
> "It also establishes a precedent, allowing private companies to set opaque, moralizing, and arbitrary censorship terms without oversight."

Politics makes strange bedfellows.

Complain that twitter or facebook is censoring things and you'll get told that the government should not be able to dictate to private companies who can or cannot be excluded.

Allow private companies to exclude a significant chunk of the population, and those same groups will complain of censorship.

Both the Right and the Left have a common interest in forcing private companies to not exclude certain people.

Too bad that too few people see the value in regulating de-facto monopolies.

I was born and raised in Florence. I've always been fascinated by how widely the water tower is known; as far away as Boston I've had someone remark on it upon learning that I'm from there.

I'm not sure Florence has all that much else to recommend it, mind you. Of all the suburban towns surrounding Cincinnati, it's definitely one of them.

My point is that the "war on drugs" approach is pretty ineffective while at the same time inflicting significant collateral damage. It already is underground, and it already is almost illegal in most jurisdictions.

The word "precedent" in that quote seems to be being used in order to deny that this is not already the case in many other contexts! Also strange that one of the examples given of this supposed "censorship" was a pornographer's difficulties in obtaining a loan due to the financial risk brought on, in part, by chargebacks, and not some supposed anti-pornography convictions held by the bankers.

> Without moralist obsessions with sex, nobody would care.

That is an observably incoherent claim. Sex is a subject that virtually everyone obsesses over and cares about to a greater or lesser extent and literally everyone that does is moralist about it. You, for example, evidently hold the moral position that prostitution, pornography, and other sex-related commercial activity is either good or at least not bad.
I have something akin to this. For the vast majority of my data, a cloud platform is the authoritative storage: Gmail, Google Photos, GitHub, etc. I have a local NAS that does streaming backups of those systems to give me a persistent local copy, and then the NAS also backs up the totality of its local backups to an S3 bucket whose policy enforces deletion protection.

I think most westerners feel that peace-and-love aren't an option here. Even most pacifists believe that a country has the right to defend itself, and nearly everybody outside the Russian sphere of influence sees this as Ukrainian self-defense.

There might be protests if Westerners were putting their lives on the line here, but they aren't. I'm told there are some protests in Germany about the very real hardship of losing Russian gas, but I think they see Russian aggression at fault and most would rather work around it.

Which is to say: most westerners see their governments doing more or less the right thing, and aren't protesting. They see it as highly unlikely that they've been so misled about the situation in Ukraine as to think that it should surrender to Russia.

Pacifists have always had to contend with rhetoric about "just wars", and this is one of the clearest examples they've seen in decades. They've certainly protested against many unjust Western wars -- usually not terribly effectively, but they did come out. And I think they would if they felt it was relevant now.

No amount of exposure to Russia's mass media is likely to change their minds about that. Such as today, with Russian media announcing a 99+% result in a "referendum". They can't even begin to imagine that this will inspire protests from Western pacifists.
I would love to use it actually, but would want to have some pricing or long term garantue.
Websites can’t write to arbitrary places on your FS and the browser has a central way to delete the data that a website can write.

Desktop apps can write anywhere, and what it writes might or might not be a cache, so there’s no way to centrally manage it. Apps like cache-cleaners simply hard-code common cache paths for common apps.
The KeePassXC team has also been trying to get their app into the store while this has happened. While this is nothing new in general, it's yet another "counterfeit" app proliferating in what's supposed to be considered a trusted source to be able to get your applications from.

This is a good example of how "app stores" tend to provide a false sense of security about what you're really downloading. There are clearly failures in terms of vetting what's there and towards ensuring that the user is actually getting what they think they're supposed to be getting.

Perhaps the "app store" model is still generally better than downloading executable code from completely random sources (nobody should be doing that), but I'm not sure there's anything more reliable (and also "secure") here than downloading a piece of software from its official source (such as from a server under the domain of the known publisher), verifying hashes/signatures, and leaving out as many intermediaries as possible who often have motives not fully aligned with the software user. Of course, this would require users to possess and be willing to use some knowledge of basic software and data hygiene, but it seems that along the way we have somewhat given up on that and so now we're stuck trusting these intermediaries usually much more than they ought to be trusted.
Like many things, it's a question of definitions. There are already cars on the road operating commercial autonomous services. It's new and immmature, but in a very real sense "self-driving" is already here. L5 or offroad might still be decades out from initial introduction.

Well, I should clarify that in terms of geological time the "large magnitude swings" I was thinking of when I wrote that are still very high frequency. I was thinking in terms of large temperature fluctuations over periods of days, weeks, months, like the ones experienced during when the polar vortex destabilizes and floats around the northern hemisphere.

> The army has always been glorified as a country without soldiers is free pickings

That is your own conlcusion. Historically armies were "staffed" by nobles. You couldn't be a soldier if you didn't have land or title, so it started out as something of prestigious and exclusive (as an alternative explanation why it was/is glorified).

My point isn't that we should see sex work as important as being a soldier (though this is still somewhat subjective). My point is that people do things _as jobs_ that can have psycological impacts. Soldiers are not treated in some different class to other jobs. They are treated essentially the same: people have contracts, insurance, pensions, etc.

why is sex work different?

No.
It’s a little too easy to be nude on the internet and make money off it compared to being a prostitute irl. There needs to be some moral policing in my opinion so online pornography doesn’t become normalized. I’m all for completely legalized prostitution, but the balance is it still needs to be on the margins to have an upstanding society.
If Apple isn't at least working on how to bring chip manufacturing in-house I'd be incredibly surprised. They have $48 billion in cash on hand, they at least have worked out a plan on how they would do it if needed.
I'm of two minds on this topic of centralization.

On the one hand, I did post a reactionary hot take yesterday in response to the "pardon me, Cisco" ad that you posted [1]. I'm sorry for that; I should have kept that immediate reaction to myself. Still, I'm apprehensive about increasing the power of one of a handful of big players by routing my company's web traffic through Cloudflare, let alone running applications themselves on the Cloudflare platform, though Workers is certainly interesting technology. And I'm certainly not going to route all of my Internet traffic through Warp, or even use 1.1.1.1 for DNS.

But in the specific case of Turnstile, it is clearly now the least bad option. So I will be happy to use it when something like a CAPTCHA is needed.

It is obvious to some professional philosophers, especially the ones who publish in the top analytic philosophy journals, but there is a whole bunch of professional philosophers who primarily work historically. I'd say that at least half of my colleagues work primarily historically. They really just write papers about what another philosopher said or thought (usually long dead ones).

My impression is that it's primarily a way of immunizing yourself against critique and avoiding academic conflicts. If you write a solid, exegetically sound historical paper you can publish it almost for sure in some journal. No reviewer will be offended by it. You won't make it into journals that require real originality such as the Journal of Philosophy, but you can easily build a career by being a "philosopher X" scholar. Publishing original content and making a name for yourself as a defender of a new philosophical thesis or tradition is much harder.

One of my colleagues works among the world's foremost Wittgenstein scholars and he told me ten years ago that it bores him to death. Nothing has changed since then, however, he's still working almost solely on Wittgenstein.
If you look at the disassembly, there's no difference in python 3 (I only tested 3.7+), so it's a matter of style.

There used to be a difference in python2 -- the list option would turn into n LOAD_CONSTs and a BUILD_LIST, whereas the tuple option would just emit one LOAD_CONST.

import dis

def with_tuple():
for i in (1,2,3):
print(i)

def with_list():
for i in [1,2,3]:
print(i)

print("with_tuple")
dis.dis(with_tuple)
print("with_list")
dis.dis(with_list)

edit: looks like this changed in python 3.6: https://python.godbolt.org/z/rEfY9GT9W
It's late stage capitalism. It's how all 'free markets' end up eventually.

The biggest players gobbling up all of the competition and essentially having a monopoly.

All you have to do is drive through middle america to see the Ruby Tuesday/Strip Mall-ification effect on most of the United States.

I love capitalism when it's functioning it's the greatest system ever invented.

When it's just a market full of monopolies it's akin to dysfunctional communism from a consumer choice perspective.

I don't know what the solution is.
I agree. Even though I think the comparison to physics doesn't fully found what you want to say.

Physics is an empirical science with a rather neutral language to communicate its content. Arguments (much more 'findings') can be translated to this language and be understood on their own.

The language of philosophy isn't so clear (or it is, but everyone has their own). Therefore an argument might not be fully understood on its own. The author/ philosopher might have tried to do so, but eventually it is easier to understand an arguments if you know what the state of the art was back then.

My point basically is, that this goes beyond 'motivation' - which is hard to illustrate if we look at physics for comparison.
