Maybe it will be like some of Apple's changes that allowed Apple's apps to bypass a whole lot of the network stack, VPNs, content filters, firewalls.

They later removed it, and tried to spin it as a "temporary feature while they resolved bugs in those pieces of software", though it's hard to imagine what apps like TextEdit needed a network kernel extension for...

It isn’t. Programming today is so much easier, in every single way, than it used to be 40 years ago when I learned how to program. I am pretty sure that people making a living today, programming by copy-pasting code from Google searches, would have had real trouble programming without the internet back then.
I haven't noticed any ads in Windows 10 LTSC on my gaming computer. I do have multiple layers of ad blocking though so it's possible they are being blocked by something and I just don't notice. Laptop is Debian.
You don’t see the difference between Amazon selling ads based on what I do on Amazon’s platform and Facebook selling ads based on what I do on Amazon?

It’s the sane thing in this case with Apple.

Besides, Apple isn’t banning third parties from sharing information. They just have to ask permission. What’s the government suppose to do? Say Apple isn’t allowed to ask consumers whether they want to be tracked across parties?

I'm a bit doubtful about that math...

A Nubian goat will apparently produce an average of 2000 pounds per lactation, which averages 284 days. Since gestation averages 149 days, you're getting less than 2000 pounds per year per goat. (https://extension.psu.edu/dairy-goat-production)

2000 pounds per goat is about 250 gallons. A brief search tells me that you might get up to $5/gallon for milk wholesale, which gives you $1259 per goat per annum, or $15000 for a dozen. That's pre-tax, of course, and doesn't include your expenses.

I guess if you sell directly to consumers for $26.66 per gallon, you could gross $80k.

You can produce cheese and such, but that's an additional enterprise. And of course there's potential for income selling goats for meat, since yearly breeding is going to give you a surplus unless you're looking to expand the herd.

I get the impression right now they're stuck at "damned if you do, damned if you don't".

If you view the current supply shortage is a temporary issue (as much as it doesn't feel very temporary right now), then not being able to provide stock to "us" is also a temporary issue. But failing their OEMs is a long-term issue - if not a permanent one. If Sharp's commercial display business takes a hit because they bought into the rpi ecosystem, and it bit them in the ass - they will not be back (See also: Apple vs nvidia). You seem to take the view that the OEMs deserve it for taking "our boards" - but rpi still take the hit when partners leave them. (and OEMs are a snowball effect: being able to point to examples like Sharp helps them win the next OEM - and I'm pretty sure that if they start publicly losing partners, the loss would only encourage the next loss).

For the rest of us - there's not many great contenders. I'm surprised at this - traditionally pi-alternatives have struggled from the lack of community. If someone else has a way around the supply shortages, this would seem like the best time to get in there and steal that community. But so far they haven't, so there's the best chance we're just going to sit here and wait for the return of the pi.

It's not ideal, it's not fair, life's a bitch. I am annoyed that it impacts me, but I can't begrudge rpi for taking the most sensible option.
That's just restating the problem in a single, flashy sentence.
> Slum tourism, poverty tourism, ghetto tourism or trauma tourism is a type of city tourism that involves visiting impoverished areas.

> The Oxford English Dictionary dates the first use of the word slumming to 1884. In London, people visited slum neighborhoods such as Whitechapel or Shoreditch to observe life in this situation. Wealthier people in New York City began to visit the Bowery and the Five Points, Manhattan on the Lower East Side, neighborhoods of poor immigrants, to see "how the other half lives".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slum_tourism

> Slum tourism has been the subject of much controversy, with critics labelling the voyeuristic aspects of slum tourism as poverty porn.

> A primary accusation that the advocates against slum tourism make is that it "turns poverty into entertainment, something that can be momentarily experienced and then escaped from".

> 93% of women prefer to be asked out on a date, while 16% of men prefer to be asked out. So if you're a man who won't ask women out, you're going to miss out on potential dates with a lot of women. No judgment — that may not be a bad strategy if you're the type of man who needs their partner to "wear the pants", so to speak.

Do you have a source for that because I find it shocking only 16% of men prefer to be asked out.
I’m not sure you could do it in 5 years at a FAANG even if you saved every penny (literally zero living expenses.)

Because if you start a career at 22, that means you retire at 27, and have to have enough saved up for something like 40 years before social security kicks in. That’s a long time to be living off of savings. Can you have enough that you can live off the interest in your investments? Depends. You’d need near-zero-risk investments because you don’t want to get wiped out at the next recession (they happen every 10-ish years) and those tend to have low yields.

Source: I’m 10 years into a faang and I have a bunch saved up, but I’m still in my 30s. There’s no way I could retire now with my wife and kids depending on me, the amount I make on the interest of my investments isn’t nearly enough and is too risky.
How is this supposed to be a counterexample? I'll have to lean on Google Translate for the French, but here are the first two verses of the English song:

You may have the money
But you've got to go
It's sensible (it's sensible)
And those endless seasons
That go on and on
Incredible

But I'd sooner get out
And remember where we went last year
You said everything about it moved on your career
If you want to go
I'll take you back one day

Here are the first two verses of the French song:

It's a corner [hidden spot?] lost
on the Atlantic
It's exotic (it's exotic)
A secret corner
under the palms
It's fantastic

I could show you
how to get there, it's very easy
Close your eyes and let your eyelashes tangle
Here we are already
Welcome to the bay

These songs are set to the same music, but they are otherwise unrelated to each other. This is like saying that Weird Al Yankovic translated Gangsta's Paradise into English.
This is so brilliant because it's funny and persuasive, and the fact that it's funny is essential to what makes it persuasive. Just a wonderful piece of self-referential writing, that also serves a serious purpose.

If we consider a sequence of possible events:

1) Ukraine continues to push Russia back

2) Putin, cornered, resorts to nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons

3) Hell ensues

(Note that I'm not saying this is going to happen. Anyone who claims to know that is misguided.)

Then we have to consider alternatives where no one gets everything they want, regardless of who is in the right. Wars don't always end in unconditional surrender, like WW II, and sometimes no one feels good about it.

So good on Elon for stepping up. His is not the only such alternative: Putin getting asylum in a third country is another one.

I uninstalled Uber when Travis Kalanick's myriad improprieties came to light. I'm not ready to forgive the company, since its very existence is built on such despicable behavior. Sure they've made improvements blah blah, but I see no reason to go back. I hope Lyft survives for this reason alone.
There's no alternative. All the alternatives are actually worse in terms of "greed" or whatever. Apple is the only one putting out quality hardware and software.

Actually even the software is somewhat suspect but it's still leagues ahead of the "competition".
I'm leaning more towards the fact that umbrella terms like "neurotypical" are setting forward something that doesn't exist, and that everyone has some aberrant wiring. I just find that a lot of this tends to boil down to people scree-ing at one another, coming up with broad generalizations, boxing themselves and others...

It should be "normal" to be different - 'cause that's the reality, even if you're in the tails.

And to be fair, I did add a caveat where... "Clinically" severe cases probably do need some formalities. It just seems like, reading through the DSM, knowing clinical therapists, and having my own deal of insight on these matters that we're (society) actually pathologizing functional people. That we're giving people language and identities to fixate on or to affix onto others and we do it in a way that is inconsistent even at the clinical level.

> if I want to know the most commonly used spelling between two options

do those mirrors count as "use" of the word? Or does "use" refer only to the original writer?

If a neologism is written once and read by millions, it carries more weight than one read by only a few people. Perhaps the same goes for spelling variants: the more people see it, the more people agree it's the typical spelling. Lots of mirroring could be a decent proxy for lots of readership.

> Most consoles are sold at a loss

After it took Sony way too long to get PS3 sales profitable, they said "no more" and made sure PS4 and PS5 sales were profitable within a year of release, just like the PS1 and PS2 were.

Xbox is sold "at a loss" only because Microsoft is still accounting for the massive cost incurred by RRoD failures, not that they're losing money per-unit.

Nintendo only ever sold the Wii U and 3DS at a loss for any real amount of time (and the Virtual Boy was a money pit if you count that.)

So yeah, that's basically only true for the 7th gen consoles, because the PS3 was overdesigned and Microsoft was willing to spend money like water to break into the market, then not sour their lead because of RRoDs.

AVIF I think is already well on the way. HEIC is DOA.
Yeah, quite different. Technical as much as procedural and psychological.

In a Clojure REPL, you navigate "modules" like directories. And each directory has "files", or vars you've defined. Basically 'cd' and 'ls', but for module-level structures.

So you 'cd' to one "directory", query an AWS service or read a CSV file, and save results in that namespace ("my_namespace/my_results"). While you're at it, you save the results to a JSON file ('echo ... > tests/saved_results.json').

(You type this all into a REPL, no need to save this one-time command in a file. You can always re-run it by pressing UP like in bash.)

Then, you write a function called 'save_to_db()' in your text editor in the "database" namespace that accepts the input and writes to a database. You send that function to the REPL, and in the REPL, run the function on the results you saved from the first step in the var ("database.save_to_db(my_namespace/my_results)".

While you're at it, you 'cd' to your "tests" namespace in the REPL, and write a quick test in your test editor that parses 'tests/saved_results.json' and calls your "save_to_db" function and verifies the database. Send test to REPL (keyboard shortcut), run the test (another keyboard shortcut), fix the code, send updated code to REPL, rinse and repeat.

And this is all in one process, so you only "start up" Java once. Everything else is basically instant.

There's a ton of Youtube videos on using Clojure REPLs. It's really a game changer...

Good question. No, i don't think it's much different in other sectors.

And the comparison to NGO's is a good one because the same realisation can be made about big parts of that world - ie. lots of them exist to further geopolitical or corporate ends, niches, or keep higher middle class do gooders busy instead of focusing on political or systemic issues. (i have lots of respect for a lot of people in that world still).

I guess that leads me to the actual problem; their images as somehow pure or isolated from the rest of societal power dynamics.

Everywhere it's about resources, realpolitiks and (media) power, but the internet is filled with people blindly believing in "science", "ngo"'s or people with diplomas for that sake.
What infuriates me is Ebon selling himself as some sort of hero, claiming that they're prioritizing things so that "people don't lose their jobs." How brave and noble of him, right?

If he stopped supplying OEMs, nobody would lose their jobs. The opposite, in fact. More engineering staff and contractors and consultants would get work because these companies would have to re-develop their products to use an in-house SBC or any of the hundreds of industrial SBCs out there.

Everyone else can't do that. Your average hobbyist can't just call up an industrial SBC company and buy. That was the whole point behind the Pi (well, the whole point was using up shitty SoCs that Broadcom hadn't been able to sell, but that's beside the point.)

What's really going on is that Ebon is prioritizing large OEMs who use Pis because they don't want to be bothered spending R&D to develop their own embedded system.

Meanwhile he's fucking over every small guy. All the retailers who have lost all that revenue and associated accessory sales? Fucked. What about their livelihoods? What about the logistics people they employed? They apparently can all get fucked.

All the non-profits (like libraries, hackerspaces, schools, etc) who may have secured budget and grant money for Pi-based programs that now cannot be spent? Fucked. rarely can money secured for purpose A be diverted to purpose B, and more often than not, you simply lose the funding entirely and you lose that amount of money from next year's budget, too.

How about the thousands of cottage industry small entrepreneurs making a living off Pi-based products they've developed? Fucked.

How about all the researchers, using Pis for data collection and controlling experiments? Fucked.

How about all the people who had home or business automation who need to replace a damaged or fried Pi? Fucked.

But thank god we're saving jobs at those large corporations who went with Pis because it was a cost-saving measure.

The Pi Foundation isn't even particularly competent. Every single Pi model has had problems, and the Pi 4 had basic, obvious-within-minutes-to-anyone-who-tried-to-use-it problems with power because the Pi foundation fucked up their USB-PD implementation.

Ebon says they're making 6M Pi's a year but it's months between any US supplier getting Pis, which means he's doing way more than "prioritizing OEMs."

>Lebron James has been remarked upon for his ability to remember practically any play of any game he's ever been in (and many that he hasn't) in precise detail. And actress Marilu Henner can basically remember every detail of her entire life, a condition called hyperthermesia. I think superior memory is an underestimated driver of successful people.

I think it depends. There is certainly a balance to be struck here. In the case of hyperthermesia its selectivity (tightly coupled to autobiographical details) makes it quite different from ordinary memorization:

>Even those with a high level of hyperthymesia do not remember exactly everything in their lives or have "perfect memory". Studies have shown that it is a selective ability, as shown by Price's case, and they can have comparative difficulty with rote memorization and therefore cannot apply their ability to school and work.[0]

The short story Funes el memorioso by Jorge Luis Borges - who explores this theme[1] quite radically in his typical style - is imv particularly enlightening.

In short: A certain amount of "forgetting" (you don't want to remember all details at all times) helps to consolidate and facilitates to see "things" in a new light. In a sense sleep itself (biologically hardcoded) fulfills a very large part of that function.
