Can you break that down? I am not sure I understand what you mean.
I was waiting for a Macbook Pro M2 2022 announcement... :(
Memorably (to me) in Berlin they at various points banned drinking beers outdoors, implemented a 10 or 11pm (can't remember) curfew, and other absolutely pointless reactionary measures.

The guidance seemed to be randomly generated at times, and kept changing.
Is it me or innovation at apple is going down?

The last time they released a "new type" of device is the apple watch or TV and all they are doing these days is "improving" existing devices. Don't get me wrong, I prefer apple's eco-system over others but I feel that the Apple most people love is no more.

I understand from a business perspective that they want to milk the cash cows but I am afraid they are slowly becoming more like Microsoft. Probably time for new player.
Affinity Designer is another really good vector app and exists on desktop too so you can have a single app workflow
But it doesn't matter what you think my duties are. And it didn't matter what my manager thought my duties were. It mattered what I thought they were. And on that day, considering the circumstances (some shit job I'm working for barely more than minimum wage as I work my way through college) I chose to decide that sweeping the parking lot was not an acceptable duty. Maybe I would have chosen differently if I'd desperately needed that job to feed a family, but that just goes to show that our lines are somewhat situation dependent.
Multiple grounding rods (electrodes) are permitted by § 250.52, but they have to be bonded together and kept away from other (non-bonded) grounding systems:

Electrode Spacing. Where more than one of the electrodes of the type specified in 250.52(A)(5) or (A)(7) are used, each electrode of one grounding system (including that used for strike termination devices) shall not be less than 1.83 m (6 ft) from any other electrode of another grounding system. Two or more grounding electrodes that are bonded together shall be considered a single grounding electrode system.

http://thenecwiki.com/2021/02/article-250/

That said, it would be very strange to add another grounding rod just because you added another breaker or outlet—I can't think of any circumstance where that would be required, unless the existing service entrance was not properly grounded, in which case you have bigger problems.
Has any non-ad driven piece of software ever used this inorganic growth hack? Admittedly, it has been a long long time since I've suffered using an OS burdened with this kind of malady, but it was definitely where I learned about how apps are not as "free" as one might be led to believe. It was these types of apps and the damn browser toolbar installs that were dark-UI/hidden installed when installing a completely different app.

This should work, and has been there a very long time!
There's truth in Mike Judge's caricature. It's because you don't get paid as much to say "we've got themes".

Simply because some group advocates something, doesnt mean its not true.
Implying this is a non-argument.

Maybe youre part of the problem?
Pitching in on one's own space is different from being demoted to being a custodian that costs the company like an engineer. It's well within the company's rights to ask employees to keep a tidy office.
"Plus that's easy to do to if there is a quarantine period, out people on shifts of 5-7 days on site, one week off."

Exactly.

"have appropriate disinfectant/decontamination guidelines."

Yeah... it seems there have been some issues with people consistently following them. At least with the quarantine you have some defense in depth in case the procedures in the lab failed. (I think a woman in Fance died doing prion research. Why? Because she violated multiple protocols. I want to say she didn't even report it at first, but I could be wrong. And this isnt even a true infectious disease)
This is a convincing argument.
Pi is the human joke of the galaxy--they all use Tau.
Sure, but when does the russian doll end? Who implements the automation? How is it tested in CI? Who watches the automation to make sure it is working? Who fixes it when it is broken once a year. What happens if I get hit by a bus or leave the company?

If Github could just solve the issue with a PAT that solves my usecase, it seems like a far less brittle solution.
I think someone on HN suggested "change your employer" with the dual meaning intended. First try to get the necessary changes through without swapping in a completely different employer. If that's not possible, look for a new job.

Came here to +1 on the likelihood of transition thoughts and the discovery of procreate.

I also happened to gift an iPad Pro to my wife. Her daily workflow for work are apps like gdocs and buffer and the ipad handles that just fine. I think we underestimate how similar is the regular job workflow and overestimate the particular setup we need for programming / engineering.

And for digital art, she started from 0 and is now a pro at ClipStudio art and Procreate. She is working on her webtoon and has created plenty of nfts and twitter profile pictures on fiverr. I’ve started bringing an ipad to engineering lectures since it has also helped me
a great deal with note taking.

I’ll send her your wife’s insta, here is her’s: https://www.instagram.com/yanora_draws/
vscode in github, simply replace any github.com url with github.dev and you've got a full vscode environment with github plugins right in the browser.
yeah i was at a startup that had SVP of product and SVP of engineering. For the entire year I was there 60% of the time was spent in meetings where they just blamed each other. Engineering would say product didn't tell us what to build so we just built what we thought they wanted and product would say they told engineering what to build but they did it incorrectly.

The company I am at now has a leader who has product and engineering reporting to them for their charter basically following the mini-ceo/cto you described. It has its issues but works much better than the alternative.
The last years have seen an online congress (rc3).

To be honest, its been pretty shit. The meatspace part is what actually makes congress good.
You need an MDM to manage it remotely. Something like Jamf Now is $2/device/month. Not sure how much the shipping costs, but might be break-even
Ahh the gotcha fallacy, touche.

I've decided it's fine for now, they already have my payment details. At least I made a conscious decision and don't believe they are selling it.

I'm looking to quit in the near future, as the product has been going down hill. But I have a few things to watch first.
> COVID-19 vaccine was created after the fact, and it hardly prevented a major global catastrophe.

What? It immediately dropped the death rate. How many more millions of lives would it have to have saved to get notice?
I’m rooting for Oxide - big fan of the past work of the headline crew involved, and their interesting and approach to on prem hardware.
Tiktok also shadowbans comments!
The M* series chips are an absolutely wild innovation. Changed the whole productline and imo, represtents a "new type" of devive. Plus the VR headset is coming, and the AR glasses are going to knock everyones socks off when they see how clever they are compared to every other AR waveguide approach
"Main culprit" is irrelevant, both because emissions are pretty well spread between numerous major activity/economic sectors. Even if it wasn't, we still wouldn't say "well shucks, X isn't the MAIN cause of Y, so we shouldn't do anything about it" https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/global-greenhouse-gas-emiss...

By the way, in the EU for example, passenger cars account for 60% of CO2 emissions related to transportation.
In practice, yes you can only approximate it, because in theory it requires an infinite series of sinusoidal waves. But since maths is all about the theory, Laplace's objections were silly.
(though I admit I don't know what the state of acceptance of infinite series was at that time)

Also, it's fine to cut off the infinite series of sinusoidal waves because all physical systems cut off around a given frequency, for example human hearing around ~20kHz.
But that's also a major problem. We have deemed life so unimportant, that if Russia wants San Francisco obliterated tomorrow, they have the power to do that. Literally nothing can stop them if they are hell-bent on that, damn the consequences.

I think the only people that realize things like this are those that have lost others. Perhaps by mistake even- perhaps especially - his hand slipped and he is dead now. Someone's wife out there is thinking that ALL the time. Perhaps in a year we'll be mourning permanently for New York like that.
Go. Your manager should be encouraging you to do so - it will open up a spot for them to find the right fit for what they're trying to do as well as keep someone valuable to the company.
Do you think these alternative cycles are always the same amplitude? or do you think maybe... we're at peak amplitude of that tech growth cycle that won't be seen again without another major breakthrough technology?

Or I guess we can just be pendantic. There are no such thing as alternating periods, all periods of time are exactly the same!
That's not the point of the title. The point of the article (and their coverage of MS for years) is that Microsoft used to be all about Windows: An operating system that abstracts hardware and enables first- and third-party apps. And now they making themselves about a system that abstracts hardware and runs apps again, but across a spectrum of devices and front-to-back. The common element is now the user and their account, not the single PC it runs on.

I also think it's obvious, but then salient things are. Consumers today don't decide between PC vendors and operating systems, but between entire company-branded computing ecosystems. Are you on the Google or Apple or Amazon train?

Things Stratechery doesn't discuss enough and this article is poor about:

- Unlike in the Windows days, in the new competing-ecosystems world, geopolitics plays a much grander role. Everyone used to be on Windows, not everyone is on Google. China, Korea, Russia all have their own ecosystem juggernauts. In our globally interconnected world, computing has become somehow less globalized recently.

- Microsoft doing VR stuff on Facebook's platform is totally in line with their observations on Microsoft's strategy going forward, but Microsoft and Facebook also compete on the ecosystem front, and the implications of this are just brushed over here as that's not the article, but it would be a more interesting one.

- The really interesting thing that sets these different companies apart is their revenue sources. Apple sells hardware (and content and lifestyle), Microsoft sells enterprise software subscriptions and cloud, Google sells ad space and cloud.
The issue is that back to office people seem to wish to make that mandatory. John Doe can be a cashier all they want, people shop online anyway - because we have lives outside offices and we dont want to spend them wasted commuting. John Doe is a dying breed unfortunately.
promotion gets progressively harder the further up the org chart you go. There's just fewer and fewer slots and better and better people trying to get them.

I'm at a level now where the next level up just looks miserable. The people I know one level up are the most intelligent productive people I know but almost every single one of them has some bizarre unexplained health issue likely related to stress. The things my boss, her boss, and their peers are able to accomplish is amazing to me but, man, i just don't think that level of suffering is worth the increase in pay.
Geeky Timer for Your Terminal
Windows really is a clusterf*k right now. In addition to the mess of frameworks that you talk about, Windows 11 has been a mess. From the random Bing-related crap getting increasingly prevalent and pervasive around the OS to the TPM fiasco (they originally let you install it on non-supported hardware but are now withholding updates). From the feature regression (e.g., taskbar is now immovable) to the yet-another-redesign that they teased/leaked during Build this year.

At this point, I'd prefer an Azure OS that I could install locally and have the Windows team slowly transition to supporting Wine, improving Linux DEs/Wayland (or even create their own DE), since I believe that they're using some Wayland compositor (mutter?) for gWSL anyways, and contributing to the Linux kernel, which they're already doing to some degree. I genuinely don't know how feasible that is and I'm aware it's wishful thinking, but a person can dream.

Then again, it would probably be to the Linux community's detriment and they'd just do the same scummy Bing/telemetry/dark pattern crap to foster ad revenue.

Second with what others said, the new standard iPad should fit your bill. It has the ultrawide camera too with people tracking which makes it even better.
> Humanity has peaked sometime around 1960s-1980s

I'm 99% certain they would have said the same things in the 60's to 80's about the 20's to 40's (maybe stopping somewhere around 1939) and in the 20's they would certainly be reminiscing about the industrial revolution and gilded age.
I'm glad you realized your hands were too important to be callused by a broom

You misunderstand. I have no problem sweeping. If he'd asked me to sweep in the store, that would have been fine. I did that pretty much every day anyway. It was more that the *fucking parking lot* doesn't need to be swept in the first place. It's a parking lot! This guy was just being a jackoff, which is why my response was as seemingly hyperbolic as it was.

Sorry, that's my fault for eliding some details in the story, because I was in a hurry earlier.

This is incorrect. As recently as 2019, just under 70% of phones from samsung, huawei etc used USB C. Phones using micro usb are still on the market or still being used. The dominant connector on phones is still micro USB.
I think the law should address multiple things, only one of which is the outputs of learning. For example, if both the copycat human and the original director human both watched the movie via stealing it, that's also bad. Especially because copycat human is then going on to create copies of work they never had legal permission to copy! CoPilot effectively cannot tell the difference between an homage and theft.
Some people want to enjoy their time at work as well.

There is life outside of work, but that doesn't mean work needs to be lifeless.
I don't desperately need to have understanding for governments or corporations. They can all take care of themselves without my help.
Sure you can. Look into MDM services like Jamf Now.
The reason the iPad Pro works so great for writing is the 120Hz refresh. I don't think we will see that in an e-ink system anytime soon, but I can always dream.

The troubling rise of digital, artificial intelligence cops
This matches what I've heard about Intel from friends who have worked there. I had a firmware programmer friend who's job was literally to copy data from excel files to .h files and when he offered to automate the process was told that the manual transfer was the process he should follow. He described his role as dead weight.
I'd really like to learn to do what he does. It's always so impressive, clear, concise and comprehensive. I feel like everything he does is a perfect pedagogical modality. I just wish everyone could get on board, especially university professors and publishers.
Here's a blog post where they have a screenshot of the new UI [1]. The biggest thing that always annoys me with UI redesigns is when something with a good label gets replaced with a flat icon and whitespace.

For example, what was wrong with the vertical labels on the left (Project, etc.)? How is an icon and extra whitespace better for my productivity? I want to see what the ellipses on the left are hiding. If it's a menu with a couple items that could have simply been put in the newly created vertical whitespace, I'd like to know what the reasoning is for that. It's not like I'm using their apps on my phone, right?

Sometimes I feel like all I've got is a hamburger menu and 2 feet of (horizontal) whitespace. What an awful trend. I also prefer colored icons. Distinct colors help me remember and I can find things more quickly.

> 99% of companies

Most companies have small amount of users and don't have rapidly shrinking/growing user bases, meaning their infrastructure need is not rapidly shrinking/growing neither, in most cases.

Hence, Kubernetes being accidental complexity most people can do without, rather than necessary complexity.
i've always said this but women have much better emotional regulation compared to men at the same age, they can make themselves do things that are boring but are valuable for their future in the long term. Men, i've observed are either too into something (at the expense of everything else) or can't care at all.
Firefox wasting time on re-implementing every pointless Chrome feature is half the reason we're in this space to begin with.

A browser doesn't need to be an operating system.
Why is that valuable? It takes weeks if not days to synthesize a vaccine for a new strain. It then takes months if not years, and massive investment, to test it for safety and efficacy. How the hell does shortening the weeks part of this at the expense of potentially requiring a new expensive test, in case the experiment leaks, make any sense?
It would only hurt me.
"Advice: don't let the tag predicates refer to other tags"

But then how would I search by the tag of all tags that do not tag themselves???
> and they don't have to try to force their preferences on existing large communities.

Or they can advocate for their ideology until existing large communities share their preferences.

I didn't really talk about climate above but that is a huge influence as well. I think advocates feel that time pressure and don't see any other option but to push for sweeping changes quickly and at a large scale.
The main feature I expect from private browsing is that the browser history will not be saved, but in normal browsing I do want it saved
What access token does that automation use?
You're getting lots of explanations for why people don't switch to rust, mostly existing projects, but I'd like to point out that plenty of people still start new projects in C++ as well. Most game dev has to be c/c++ if you want to release on consoles. This isn't technically true, but in practice it is most of the time. Not everybody wants to program in rust's pseudo-functional style. Some people like C because if you can generally map nice C code to its assembly in your head.

In my opinion, memory safety also gets a little overblown. Most applications don't really need memory safety, and for the ones that do, C++ smart pointers are good enough. I'm sure plenty of people will have strong opinions against that.

Ultimately there is this sort of energy towards c++ because there are orders of magnitude more projects and developers that use C++, and it would be silly to stop work on C++ every time a C++ killer came along.
"You can still socialize digitally with others if you work from home, or step out and get lunch or coffee at local businesses and be around people."

I don't think socializing digitally is a sufficient substitute. Being around people I don't know isn't socializing because I don't have a relationship with them."

"A home is no more distracting than an office."

My apartment is quiet, I have two cats, I'm not near any loud roadway just a park, and my building has sound proofing so I never hear my neighbors.

Everyone has a different living situation but your comment implies it's the same for everyone.

--------------------------------------------

"Work is what happens when your laptop is open. Make a ritual of closing it to symbolize the end of your work day and you get the same effect."

This is not sufficient for me. I don't know why you think what works for you psychologically would work for others.

"Working from an office sucks and is for lower class jobs IMO. It is beneath a software engineer’s esteemed status.

This is such a stupid comment that I'm just going to call you an asshole and take the flag.

I am in a similar situation. I have to write and review requirements and other docs in a system with the worst usability and stability I have ever seen. Every little thing you do turns into a massive ordeal because there is always something that doesn’t work right. So I am spending an enormous amount of energy and time just figuring out the quieks of the system. Everybody who has to work with it hates it.

In the last few months I have basically neglected my regular job which is to be a team lead and architect. Other people have picked up the slack to some degree but I feel more and more that my tech skills are going downhill because I am dealing with a software system that shouldn’t ever have been bought.

This is becoming a real career problem. I am learning “skills” that are totally useless in any sane company and neglecting the skills that can get you a good job.

I have always wanted to try that! I'm not going to try it on any car I own either. It is all just super high risk, and I just don't have a spare car laying around that has the beans to pull that off.
What are you able to do in Kubernetes that you cannot (yet) do in Nomad? Seems to cover exactly the same use cases, and more even, as you can run non-containers in Nomad and also Nomad seems to require less resources for hosts so you could run it on much smaller devices/instances.

That would be a set of values :-)
AMD and Intel are both US based companies.

Again - I'm talking about R&D, chip design, intellectual property - in chips the US holds the majority of the major players. Yes, TSMC is manufacturing many of those chips today, but design and manufacturing are not the same thing.

It's appreciated when you read the entirety of the post before sharing information that's already been reviewed and incorrect information.
It has IEEE 802.11ax WiFi6E, first Apple device with it, apparently. Even the M2 MacBook Air and the Mac Studio don't have it.

Edit: only dual-band. no 6GHz? WTF, Apple? Definitely skipping this generation, then.
there's a massive difference between tagging-for-self-recall and tagging-for-other-recall. when i invented tagging the first was paramount, but the latter has become dominant and has very different design considerations

one interesting note: you can infer a bunch of hierarchical information since people frequently tag from broader to more specific, topicwise.

some things can be tagged by multiple people and you can thus infer synonyms as well. this can thus be fixed in search.
