Definitely some are lurking out of sheer addictive habit. But there's fewer reasons to leave comments because a) the community grew and there's already someone who articulated your point, so no sense in repeating it and b) the hivemind has moved in a different direction and it's more challenging to have reasonable discourse here without it feeling like you're "debating" 14-year-olds on Reddit.

You could also come at the problem the other way. If incomes were keeping up with productivity and cost-of-living, people wouldn't be relying so heavily on their homes appreciating in order to have enough money to retire.
I think the issue is that “the disabled don’t need access to everything” ends up with the abled deciding what the disabled deserve to access. How shitty a life having to utter something like, “sorry no, I haven’t tried the new ramen shop, the state legislature decided that restaurants weren’t essential enough to require wheelchair access and the front door is up some stairs.”

It in no way excuses the frankly bullshit lawsuits the parent is referencing but in general I think everything should be accessible. Like in all things there needs to be an element of good faith. There’s a world of difference between painted lines being slightly faded and “I genuinely can’t get into your business.”
given that thunderbolt 3 is basically PCI,
the only far fetched part would be having to write a 3rd party driver for the card. Given the high end businesses that exist in this world to work with video on the (eg Davinci on the iPad which was recently on the front page), combined with a demand for absolute highest end GPU performance, I think there's a business case for it. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to be open source though.

Hello Texas abortion law
It's relatively easier to have a pint or two and ride a horse or drive a wagon than it is to do the same and ride an old bicycle. I would assume you could also water, feed, and rest your horse at the tavern, which a bicycle did not require.
If your government asks you to delete your post or pay up a million dollars, is it your fault for choosing to delete the post?

There is maybe something here if the law was active before they made all the videos, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
You're forgetting that the demand side of the equation is very sensitive to the cost of credit.

Put it this way. We know for example that a lot of homes are rented out as AirBnBs. We can safely assume that many of those were purchased for that purpose and that the purchase was funded with borrowed money. The AirBnB income and anticipated capital gains made the borrowing worthwhile. Is it still worthwhile if the cost of credit doubles and capital gains seem much less certain? It's likely that we'll see a lot of investment and speculative demand disappear leading to lower demand overall.

In other words, demand isn't just for properties as homes - it's for properties as investments as well.
Reinstalled what? AFAIK there’s no way to uninstall iPadOS, ergo no way to reinstall it.

As long as we’re trading anecdotes, I have an old, refurb 9.7” iPad Pro, so that’s a 2016 release date. Thunderbolt port is a wonky after having dropped it an embarrassing number of times while it was plugged in, so I have to jiggle the plug to get a charging connection. Battery this past few months is starting to show its age, discharging in about two hours of continuous wifi use. It’s otherwise still going strong.

Edit: as to OP’s “why?” IIRC, the non-Pro didn’t support the pencil at the time.

The current lineup is nonsensical. 11” appears to be nigh identical to the 12”, the Air seems to be about the same price as the Pro, the new non-Pro uses an old, obsolete pencil that it can’t even charge - Apple has lost the plot.

‹lights his hair on fire and puts on his running shoes›
The one that sticks with me was the demo to the engineering team of "Aqua". A small team had been developing the new "lickable" user interface that was called Aqua. Before the release of OS X with the new UI, Jobs assembled the engineers that worked on the OS that would be tasked with carrying the UI throughout with their frameworks/apps.

In typical Steve fashion he had a slide-preso for the reveal. He began with a kind of simplified history of the computer user-interface: starting with the command-line. His next slide showed the graphical user interface popularized, surprise, by his earlier Apple Macintosh.

The NeXt slide (ha ha) showed, perhaps unsurprisingly, the NeXT user interface. A "boo" from one of the engineers in the crowd.

Jobs froze and the showman tone of his voice was gone, "Who said that? Who booed?" He was clearly enraged. He stared into the audience, scanning the faces of the engineers. I think he followed that with some expletives and a claim that the NeXT UI was an amazing step in UI design but I was still kind of in shock myself.
The article says "chase innocent businesses" and that their new venture has courses limited to 500 people, which seems to indicate similar exemptions in their version.
20% lose-it-or-lose-it yearly is my experience in Canada, and I believe that's on top of being allowed to make double payments.

And yes, the prepay penalty is generally based on the interest they would lose or a few month's interest, whichever is better for the bank at the time of payment.

But also note that if you paid the extra for a 10-year, Canadian federal law says you can prepay 100% at any time after 5 years with no penalty (or virtually no penalty?). Which is part of why longer-term mortgages are markedly more expensive.
Interestingly GCP already offers over 75% discounts for n2d (AMD) spot instances that don't rely on any internal market, and the discounts for other families are fairly close.

We see individual spot instances go away every few days which works pretty well for GKE. The older preemptible class of instances restarted every 24 hours which was more of a pain (mitigated a bit with a preemptible killer to spread the restarts out).
This is a University town. It's stuffed with student accomodation, a.k.a. "homes in multiple occupation".

Yes, I think it's roughly like what you said: the Council doesn't want holiday homes in this town. Housing is expensive here, because in addition to two universites, it has a cluster of big hospitals. But we still need inexpensive housing for the multitude of low-paid wokers those institutions require.

Tourists are a boon for some places, but this town would work better with less tourists (few of the tourists buy anything, and most of them don't stay overnight anyway - they just want a selfie in front of an old building).

[Edit] Not exactly; an old-fashioned couch-surfing isn't ruled out. Nor is am apartment let for less than 90 days a year. But anything that could be an attempt to get around student-housing regulations is probably banned, because that's heavily regulated.
> Unfortunately every time you create a new law with a private right of action, lawyers will monetize it at industrial scale.

Why "unfortunately"? It seems to me this is the intended outcome. It's how these laws actually get enforced.

> I usually assume that this USA-specific "missing middle" of dense housing is a result of car culture and the suburban nightmare we've created across the country.

The rural areas are just that, rural. But cities are where the problem of the suburban nightmare take hold and they weren’t an issue for most of American history because a city was a city and the countryside was the countryside.

This changed with the highway infrastructure, gutting of city transit like existing streetcars, etc. and trying to sell the idyllic countryside at mass scale that was for a brief period “achievable” via personal automobile.

Socialization doesn’t have to be because of density. It can be between homesteaders who pass each other by once in awhile or meet up at the market place that exists in the town. The problem with suburbs is that they don’t reproduce any of the benefits of city life or productive rural life.
There were constables in England in the Middle Ages. There have been local volunteer watchman and paid constables in the United States since the early colonial days. There was also "hue and cry", whereby someone witnessed a crime and then shouted out and all men were supposed to help catch the criminal. This, as can be imagined, was sometimes quite the shit-show.

Anyone who owns a house for long (the older the house, the more true it is), knows that it requires constant small bits of care here and there to make it ‘work’. A bit of maintenance on the exterior here, some yelling at a new yard guy who is mangling something here, getting a plumber in to fix a blocked drain there, add some untangling who gets to figure out the fence contractor on top, and you’re looking at work. Not full time work, but it goes on the pile.

If it doesn’t happen, it goes into a maintenance backlog that will make your head spin later, and possibly your wallet implode.

If you live there, it’s usually straightforward enough to fit it in with everything else, but can be exhausting on it’s own.

Through something major in (roof leak? AC breakage?), add it being in an area you don’t live in anymore, and gets harder.

Then, you can have tenants that aren’t absolutely perfect, and it gets even harder and more tiring. Late payments? Property damage? Neighbor complaints?

If you pick good tenants each time and nothing goes wrong, it can be great. It only takes one case of it not for things to get really unpleasant and overwhelming however.

Also, add in the Covid eviction moratoriums, which opened a whole additional can of worms for landlords - if something happens like that again, which precedent has now been set - you could spend years paying a mortgage and upkeep on a place with zero income from it.

Personally, I never rent out a place unless I know how to do an eviction in the local jurisdiction. I hope I never would have to, but not knowing how is a good recipe to lose your shirt and possibly any future gains you could ever hope to have.

I’ve known folks that had renters who seemed perfectly fine (solid full time professional jobs, etc), but left a complete trash house (literally, multiple dumpsters worth - trash to chest high), and disappeared suddenly without paying last months rent.

The underlying truth is that it takes work and management expertise + energy to maintain a house in livable condition, let alone want-to-live-in-it-condition, and that has value. Also, not everyone can, or wants to do that.
Apple gets to break all the rules

No, everyone who’s a registered developer knew they couldn’t use a different browser engine. That’s been the policy from day 1.

It would be different if Apple allowed 3rd party rendering engines and then forced them off, but that’s not the case.

Among other things, 3rd party engines would be incompatible with Apple’s Lockdown feature. Because browsers are required to use WebKit on iOS, they automatically work with lockdown mode; it would be much more difficult if every browser on iOS had it’s own rendering and JavaScript engine:

On a more technical level, a number of web technologies are turned off,
including just-in-time (JIT) JavaScript compilation (where code is run
and compiled at the same time.) In addition, configuration profiles
(for work or school for example) can't be installed.

Until the professor actually asks real questions and grades them as they should be graded. Then the students complain, and the grades are "renormalized" or whatever euphemism they use. And certainly in the US, students have a lot of influence, since they're the paying clients. It's really not surprising that employers ask academic titles for so many entry-level jobs.

More precision would require an atomic (hydrogen or cesium) clock on each satellite, and periodic adjustments for relativistic effects, just like regular GPS and other GNSS systems.

An intermediate improvement might be a small/lightweight rubidium clock synced to GPS to improve stability for when GPS is unavailable to the satellite.
I'm not sure about this either. My guess is that there are two factors at work:

1) raising rates and otherwise making money more expensive encourages capital to do something else with their money than speculate on real estate cheaply, which was a pretty appealing option over the last 5-6 years (let alone the last 2).

2) it's a mistake to rely on interest rates alone to address issues here. There's a whole raft of policy issues that should be brought into play here: progressive taxation by ownership volume and vacation-rental usage, better interest breaks for first-time homebuyers, encourage owner restoration and discourage investor-flippers. BUT every other way of addressing the policy is actually harder politically, since one party sees inequality as feature-not-bug and will actively fight attempts to address it (especially if it represents a win for their opposition), and the other has both a tenuous hold on power and a coalition that may not be all on board.
How likely is this to make some kind of stride in the macOS gaming world?

It's not that bad as long as you're planning to stay in your home and keep your job. Long-term owners are basically indifferent to housing prices, because they're not going to be making any transactions in the housing market. Same reason Warren Buffett is always marveling over why working-age people think news of stock market declines is bad. If you are a net saver, you want asset prices to be cheap and interest rates to be high, because you'll be a buyer of assets.

Also, you're going to be investing in your children for a good 20 years, so it's not that irrational to make a 30yr investment in a house to get them into a good school district.

But the whole point of rpm-ostree is to avoid rpms where possible. You can't be for rpm-ostree and at the same time propose continuing with traditional packaging system, which is discouraged for immutable systems.

Snap and Flatpak where not only meant to enable sandboxing, but also to eliminate huge distribution repositories of packages all modifying root directory contents and requiring redundant packaging work.

I agree that neither Flatpak nor Snap are there yet, but we're all still in the transition stage.
> But if the law specifically says web videos need captions, and you put web videos up without captions and subsequently get sued…

Except that's not really what happened. The site has a bunch of videos that were legal when created, but are no longer legal. And rather than going back and bringing them up to code, the author has decided to shut down shop.

Plus, being compliant doesn't save them from having to deal with the lawsuits. As has been discussed throughout this thread, these laws are abused a lot to bully and shutdown smaller companies that don't have the resources to defend themselves.
Many devs don't maintain their software the way you describe. I don't think they should need to.

If you look at what most software does, it's pretty static. Like you're telling the OS to draw windows with buttons and run your code in response to inputs. More complex with games, but still. The Mac user interface doesn't change much over time. The software should be a lot safer from OS changes. Microsoft showed that it's possible, and they even did it with third-party hardware. Same with the web. If Apple wanted compatibility with less burden, they could've provided better abstractions to devs. "Do things this one sanctioned way, and it won't break."

Mac OS was not good for games in the end. It was common for a minor OS release to break a good portion of your game library, sometimes permanently. If I understand correctly, Apple even intentionally let OpenGL go stale to push Metal instead. This was all on top of DirectX being Windows-only. Relying on WINE for an official software release is a kludge, and despite the common claim that it comes at no performance cost, somehow things tended to be much slower in it (not from the WINE translation layer itself but some other consequence of semi-incompatibility).
Great point, and I just edited that out on re-read because I realized it's simply not true. In fact, it's the core problem with using private action as an enforcement mechanism. You pass a specialized regulatory problem to a generic court and waste everyone's time with cases like this one where the companies may in fact be perfectly compliant - but first you need to spend money teaching the judge what the facts are.

I get what you're saying, but I'm not referring to all journalists. There are some that still do a decent job at representing the facts, while some others are at the opposite end of the spectrum and seem to only care about making a striking headline or telling a certain group of people what they want to hear. Like when in the game you take a picture of four people where three are mad at each other and the fourth is neutral, and the headline says "Almost everyone hates everyone else!".
Demand is a function of money, not counting up people and dividing by houses. The supply of credit and discretionary spending is drying up at the same time.
