From Mozilla's point of view its probably that people might get confused between the old and new themes and wonder why all the highly customisable themes we use to have no longer work. So we have to have a new the colourways name so Mozilla can market the 'new' feature and sidestep the problem.
Mine sat around too, until I began using it as an extended display on a stand. The recent Mac OS auxiliary display features are pretty good (brilliant in some ways, maddening in others).
It's important to distinguish between a core competency and something of extreme importance. Obviously education is extremely important but that doesn't mean a parent will inherently be any good at doing it, other than of course caring a lot, which may or may not help depending on how that energy is channeled.
I am assuming they will use the banana ancestor to breed it with their clone, and sell it at cost to the banana, pocketing the difference as profit.

then again, bananas will never pushback against footing the entire bill, so they'll probably get wiped out.

why do you think they're having some trouble finding banana ancestors? how much banana is there left?

This seems like an uncharitable take, the set of axioms and definitions used doesn't really fall under "mathematical truths", it's about agreement on what is implied by a given set of axioms. Even on Earth many people work in alternatives to ZFC and generally don't really disagree about what is "true".
The high refresh rate being limited to pro models seems like apple deliberately holding back a feature from it's lesser expensive models to avoid it competing with its more expensive models.

That was the original use case for NFTs (replacing paperwork as a record of ownership of something tangible), and what I remember people saying they could be used for when it was still just a concept yet to be implemented, way back when they were just called 'colored coins' and not NFTs.

It's still the most reasonable thing to me, or maybe signifying ownership of digital content (for a reasonable price), like owning a digital weapon in Warcraft you could sell to someone else via an NFT marketplace.

People just found some easy money with the PFP (profile pic) NFTs, started treating them like Pokemon cards, and prices got insane and stupid for a while.

Hopefully that more or less goes away and things will be sold for prices similar to what it should really be worth again (I don't mind paying $5-10 to say I 'own' a cool profile pic, for example, but $250k+ is insane).
Yeah, Apple has normalized misleading marketing speak.

Here's one from 2017 about the iPhone

> iPhone X: Apple's new 'edge-to-edge' screen includes strange notch at the top

> The screen doesn't actually go edge-to-edge, despite descriptions that refer to it that way. Or rather, it goes to three of the edges – leaving a little cut-out at the top, where the screen can't quite reach to the top of the display.

I know someone who got their first B in band because that teacher didn't think that anyone should get all As. Nevermind how hard she worked, nobody was allowed to get all As if that teacher could help it.

FWIW I think a monthly HOA of $941 for a condo that costs $2,395,000 is low.

I know places in Austin where (and this was years ago), HOA fees were $1100 for a condo in the $1.2 million range.

And, to be clear, I'm not saying 941 is "cheap" on an absolute basis, just that it is for a condo that is already that expensive.
The example given is fridge cleaning, but tasks outside your narrow job spec can be very useful.

For instance, if you are hired as a software tester, and snag a task setting up the automated build system, you can turn that into a higher paid dev ops careeer.

Some people thrive in highly structured environments where they can optimize for metrics and get promotions - they do well in big companies. Others collect skills and achievements and use those to push their career forward - they do well in small companies and consulting. The world needs both.

With that said, knowing when to say no is very important as you say.
For blogs, sure, JavaScript is "fast enough".

But in the context of applications, JavaScript is slow as dog shit.

It takes "seconds" to open my spreadsheet? That is an absolutely deplorable regression.

Personally, I'm fine with 200KB initial downloads, sure that's great and I don't mind repeating them. (But, also don't care about 50MB or even 500MB downloads that I only do once.)

But for the browser to really become the "single best application distribution method humanity has ever created" it needs to be capable of delivering software that executes efficiently or else it is regresssion to barbarism by a thousand cuts. Not just the putrid UX, but we now understand that slow, inefficient code also cooks the planet and destroys various life forms.

I work at a company that uses Google Sheets. So yeah, it does often take seconds to open a document. And I've spent way more time waiting for those sheets to load over the past 5 years than I have waiting for software installers.

And many web apps bog down and lag behind even just typing, because they are doing some (trivial) computation on every keystroke. It doesn't have to be that way, but it often is... because JavaScript.

I'm also bullish on the browser's future as an app-delivery channel — but that is only because I think doing it without JavaScript will become easy, and thus common.

JavaScript is relevant because of the browser, not the other way around.

It’s a big issue with the audience of this site being too hyper focused on software development.

You can see it taken one step further in threads about GitHub Copilot getting torn to bits but the threads on Stable Diffusion getting lauded as the end of artists.

It’s the double standards that come up when people fixate only on what they know well themselves.
Yeah! And why can't don't they have ports for SD cards, USB sticks, and floppy disks!

At some point, things change. We're at that point with wired headphones. You can already share Bluetooth headphones across a Mac/iPhone/Tablet with extreme ease. And if you really want, you can adapt regular wired headphones to bluetooth.

And on iPads specifically, it's not like people are carrying them around in their pocket to listen to music.
Well, that's just silly. The bill could have the full receipt, and a QR code easily enough.

The only reason to make it an either/or, is to try to force it.

I'd tip less, as a result too. Most places I worked at, has pooled tipping, meaning even the bus boy got some of the take.

But regardless, if my food is cold, or tasteless, I tip less too. My tip is some for the waiter's service, some for everything else.

And having to wait for a real receipt, and I presume eyerolling is part of it, would mean a lesser tip.

If someone thinks that unfair, then I say the same to them, as to the waiter. Find a different job, where the employer cares about customer satisfaction.
"Not knowing" doesn't free you from responsibility.

If you took a bunch of copyrighted and non-copyrighted books, cut them into pieces, shuffled them all together, then picked a passage at random from a hat; "not knowing" what you are going to get doesn't mean you aren't violating copyright.

That's essentially what copilot is doing: it's taking a bunch of code - some of it copyrighted without license - and using it as a dataset. The ML algorithm then tries to pattern match against that data to provide the user with something they want. That's just copyright violation lottery with extra steps.
Indeed. They are answering the question "Do teachers give girls higher marks than boys", and the answer is Yes, girls do get better grades than boys for the same work.

We do not get a final answer to why teachers are giving girls higher marks than boys.
Heck yeah. "Reading" sounds boring and easy, except when you have to quickly skim through 600-page PDFs with illustrations, and switch between those. This is a common use case for anybody designing electronics. I will take every CPU cycle I can get.

The existing iPads were already the best devices for this kind of thing, but faster is always better.

I still find it sad that:

a) Apple restricts iPad OS so much, that it's difficult to make good use of that fantastic hardware. It feels weird that people ask questions like "what can I actually use that power for?"

b) Companies do not ship better iPad apps. At this point, Fusion 360 would work better on this M2 iPad than on most PC machines, but we only get a half-baked "viewer" thing which doesn't really do anything useful.

I bought an iPad in 2020 fully thinking it’s gonna collect dust like all my other tablets over the years.

Nowadays I use it more than my laptop. With the magic keyboard and pen, it really has become the perfect portable computing device. Great for writing, great for sketching diagrams, even good for light coding (like for code samples). And it is fantastic for creating talk slides and even presenting full day workshops. Love it

This might just be a subjective thing then. My impression was that he was simply following a casual train of thought.

I agree with the other comment that my words “hostile gatekeeping” were too strong. I just get irritated with philosophers specifically, because philosophy itself is a normal human experience. Everyone finds themselves thinking about things that veer into philosophical subjects. To even criticize people for doing so without reading the professional literature is just so annoying to me.
I'm extremely skeptical of this claim.

It depends entirely where you are. I have fond memories of Math in school; particularly in 6th and 10-12th grades. Teachers were interesting and extremely invested in making sure we enjoyed ourselves and the material. When we were bored, they switched things up to get us interested.
Agree! I don't have controllers, but yes standing still games also work well. FPS's not so much.

These small changes are "big news" because the iPad is not (yet) a fashion statement, unlike the iPhone, who suffers enough small changes each iteration so your peers can guess what model you have and how cool you are.

I don't know if it's common, but I associate iPads with small kids, and maybe Apple wants to change that perception.

One of the other complaints you here on HN is that software is changing for sake of change rather than remaining relatively stable once the core feature-set has been built out. Well, MacOS strikes a pretty good balance on that score. They introduce new features, but haven't radically changed anything in a long time ... and that enables people to get work done.
They can't, not even remotely close any time in the next 20 years at least. Can you imagine what a landing beach would look like being pounded by drone spotted artillery? See war in Ukraine. Forget the approach, anti ship missiles, mines, sheer volume of logistics needed. Stepping on the landing beach is a suicide without absolutely astronomical advantage in air power and ability to suffer huge attrition, even then.. 155mm hidden under camo/thermal nets, DJI drone rigged with magazines of small bombs.. Kyiv, Kharkiv, Kherson Childs play, this would make Diep and Galipoli look like walk in the park.

I would go as far as to say that US Army + Marines + Navy could not land on Taiwan without suffering multiple brigades of attrition AFTER at least a year long blockade and air campaign. It is that hard.

PRC has to surpass US in GDP, then spend 10-20 years of US level military spending, then maybe.

Me too. In our extended social circle, we're seeing home schooling become more and more popular. Online schools, self-guided pacing and curricula, unschooling etc... A whole range, but whatever it is, not classroom based education.

Homeschooling is not just for anti-establishment weirdos anymore, "normal" people seem to take the leap a lot more.

Not sure what's holding us back; some combination of inertia, fear, doubt, finances no doubt.

Very little of your comment is true. I attribute increasing vitriol and false statements being thrown around as a symptom of our increasingly escalating cold war with China.

It is interesting to see how dramatically opinion has cooled on China in the past few years, simply because they have become a great power competitor.
My iPad Pro from years ago has USB-C. Apple has been moving that way for a while. My guess is they're saving iPhone for last because they know more people will complain about having to buy new cables than are complaining now about continuing to use 10 year old Lightning cables.
I've had the opposite experience, switched to Firefox on Android after the new update because of the better performance and UI. Limited extension support is annoying, but if you get it from F-Droid or use the nightly version, you can enable a hidden setting that lets you install any extension you like.
What a bizarre teaching philosophy.
The main use case for my current iPad is to connect the audio-jack to my guitar amp and use GarageBand - which currently works great because I can charge the iPad at the same time. I guess in the future one can only use the audio out OR charge - which is a shame.

Edit: No, I can't really use bluetooth here since a) 99% of guitar amps have no BT support and b) the latency is noticeable.

OK, Thread uses IEEE 802.15.4 (just like ZigBeww), most of its channels operate within 2.4GHz spectrum. HomePod mini has had Thread support since 2021, and looking at iFixit teardown, it uses SKY66404-11 for ZigBee/Thread/Bluetooth:

> military housing can provide a good lens into this.

IMO, that's not really fair - at least for barracks. And I don't really think that "married" house style housing really applies since it's a suburb that just happens to be inside the base.

1. You don't own your barracks room. You generally don't have any ability to change furniture, appliances, paint, etc.

2. Barracks typically offer little privacy - there are periodic inspections, limits on guests, etc.

3. Military culture is a bit weird - there is often a very strong drinking culture, etc. It's not clear to me that the same social forces exist for a civilian live-work building.

4. The barracks are sometimes raided for off-hours extra duty. This downside doesn't really exist in the same way for civilians.

I use a 5th gen iPad mini for web, email, telephony, ebooks, photos & video capture, but I use older Intel Macs (MBP 2010 & mini 2012) for local media server, storage, photo and video editing, torrent, file manipulation and transcoding, word processing & desktop publishing, pdf generation & editing, VM & emulation, and all the things that iDevices won't easily or gracefully allow or anything I happen to prefer on macOS. Granted, with effort, one can do nearly everything on iDevice, but it isn't always convenient. But upwards of 90% of the things I use Apple technology for is web browsing, email, and watching a movie or tv show, and this incidentally makes my Macs more secure and less needy of administration. I would like to have a new Mac, but I really can't justify it because I no longer use them for web and email, all the old Mac software can still do what I need it to do, although heavy processing takes longer, because the Macs are really in the background, it doesn't slow me down.
Don’t forget the 27,000 annual property tax as well.
Second this. What people outside the bay area miss is the location quality that is not possible to mimic. Unparalleled geologic features (Bay, Coastline, Hills) add on that you have many world class educational facilities that aren't going anywhere and an economy that has always ebbed and flowed but has a strong undercurrent of strength and resilience. Oh yeah and possibly the best food on the planet which has some value even if you don't really care about food.

Will it be the same? No but cities never revert they always change and remain dynamic as us humans do.

Is that "math" though, or just a particular construct in the system of math? I could imagine an alien mind that does not break things down across integer boundaries, when you consider that any labelings and groupings are arbitrary. That 1 "hat" you are wearing plus that 1 "hat" your buddy is wearing are actually not 1 and 1 but a conglomeration of fields/particles in an arbitrary configuration that can be torn or shredded or turned into plasma.

I wish it was a solution to housing, but it's going to be very expensive to try to retrofit the additional plumbing, HVAC and electricity load for residential space. It's also expensive to keep a building open, so I can imagine you'll need a high occupancy percentage to also make it work.

Converting vacant office buildings into homeless shelters would absolutely count as a "public use".
