I’m not knowledgeable on hardware/music, would an usb-c to jack converter decrease quality/increase latency? I know that it is still a bad option as you may want to charge it at the same time..
Maybe those usb-c dongles used primarily in macs? They often have jack as well, would that not be a good replacement?
> The researchers found that each person’s self-reported stress level corresponded to the noise level of the flying car. As the noise increased, the participants reported greater stress. When the noise level decreased, they reported lower stress levels. However, brain activity data showed a different pattern. As predicted, when the noise level increased for the first time in the experiment, the EEG data showed higher levels of stress among the participants. But once the participants were exposed to loud noise, their stress levels did not decrease - even after the noise level dropped. This may suggest that while most people think they can become accustomed to loud noise, it may actually be causing them stress without noticing it
But does UTM support OpenGL powered by the M2 GPU?!

And off topic but what about connecting a mouse to this thing?

And what about compiling apps on it!?

What about running OpenGL on non emulated linux on this?

I know the GPU is being worked on but do the old OpenGL parts work allready or is that part of the reverse engineering?

I wish you could change batteries yourself... hopefully they have moved towards that: 3/10 on the old one: https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPad+Pro+11-Inch+Teardown/11...
The Miyawaki model is incredibly labor intensive and requires far more sophistication in monitoring and planting methods than developing countries are usually willing to commit to mass planting projects.

90%+ of these mass planting "1 million trees in 30 seconds" projects is usually little more than putting sticks in the ground, hoping some of them make it, with little regard for survivability, usefulness, tree species nativity, etc.
Hey, listen. I just read the article, and said to myself:

"Self, y'know, this chap is talking about database migrations, which isn't really my cup of tea, but his point is just as valid for codebase and dependency migrations."

So I made a point, based on that. It was not my intention to pee in anybody's punch bowl.

So I leave the field to you.

I yield.

I surrender.

You win.

Have a great day.
Most people's commute sucks. And for those with less sucky commute, they mostly pay a premium for their rent to be as close as possible to their workplace. Both situations are horrible and the benefits of WFH are vast, not only to people who want it, but also those who don't.
> I wonder if thats because, if you let engineers do both, you end up with a mess and accomplish nothing

No, it is because an Engineer (with technology selection blinders on) will jump to a What/How before the Why actually lands in a conversation.

The why will be recorded as "what the customer wants", we jump from problem to solution too fast.

In fact most of the times the product org only provides a "What" to the engineering team which is where most of the problems are buried & plays it close to the chest with the "Why".

I was an engineer reporting to the CPO in my last job and my entire job was to diffuse the "Why" down to the engineering org, so that they felt purposeful about the problems they were solving & to push back on the What if there's a better solution possible. But I didn't get to redefine the "Why" part of the question, even though I really wanted to do it to make more progress in the directions I was already headed.

Once you got "what", then you get to "how", "who", "when" and usually "how much?".

The message usually bounces off the end of that and goes back, to the customer who's eventually going to solve the "how much" problem.
In terms of human existence tech is overwhelmingly above the average person need. It's not providing anything beside more addictive paths. You don't need more resolution, more bandwidth, more anything.. you probably need less, or more space to reflect and live outside the networked digital realm.

ps: to add a bit more, from the few chats I have, people are either saying "well I need that to check my bank account or pay taxes" or "well I need that so I can binge on netflix"
Considering the typical behavior of about 90% or more of all major tech companies that many people on this site work for or contract to, it's laughable that you'd snark at someone talking about a minor pseudo-theft of electricity form a dorm room several years ago. Hell, much of the shit being thrown by commentators on this site on cryptominers, who often use renewable energy sources for their mining, is itself laughable considering how much electricity and resources the mega tech corps they work for burn all the time. You could argue that said companies do so for "better" reasons, but that's debatable and a separate matter.
I'm not seeing how 'security agreements' can guard against them deciding to just stay in Saudi Arabia with the patronage of the princes.
Not just the walled garden. iPads are simply less capable as productivity devices than a laptop is.

Right now, for instance, I have this page open in a web browser, which has youtube playing in one tab, twitter in another, and this in yet another. I also have an iPhone simulator running behind this browser, a terminal window tail -f ing a logfile, and vscode in another window.

All of this stuff is open at the same time. I can hear audio from all of it, access all of it, see all of it, all at the same time. This is not possible on an iPad.

Yep there are plenty of watches like that (for example Fossil I think), but I'd really like to take a nice vintage watch and build a hackable watch platform myself.
You're not alone - I more or less bailed around the iPhone/iTunes start, once amazon gave me a way to 'own' my music outside of an OS/hardware dependent ecosystem, I left. Apple makes everything wonderful if you never leave their walled garden, but I operate linux servers, I support mac engineers, and I provide service to windows clients. The only OS that makes supporting all three harder is macOS.
If you only use communication tools, web based apps, Word, and only need to be able to open/tweak an excel or PowerPoint doc, then yeah they’re awesome, anything more and you need a laptop.
I set out building my first full-stack webapp [0] to make a custom theme-based tagging/organizational system for musical ideas. I did not initially realize all the hairy design choices inherent in this domain, but have found it humbling and educational.

Remaining features to be implemented include in-app audio recording, editing, and custom labeling outside of the main tree structured organizational system.

I'd appreciate any thoughts or suggestions if anyone cares to take a look!

It is hilarious to me that apple keeps adding accessories to the iPad to make it look more and more like a laptop.

The iPad is a very bad laptop, but is a great tablet.
Defer code compliance to time of sale/purchase. Basically: if you want to sell it as a house, it has to be up to code, but until then, go hog-wild. Seems like that would solve the issue - and in practice I'm pretty sure that's already the case.
IMO, the solution offered in the article is not realistic. If you're getting a job offer from Coinbase that's 30% higher than Google's (tweet referenced by the article), neither company will agree to you working both jobs concurrently. Even if they astonishingly did, they would likely require at least 30 hours each, which is extremely bad for your mental health.

Here are a couple more realistic options to consider:

1) If you're not born in India or China, prioritize landing a job at a stable employee-friendly company that is willing to start your green card petition asap. Stay there till you get your green card. If things go smoothly, it should only take ~2 years

2) If you're born in India or China, live extremely frugally throughout your 20s and save up as much money as you possibly can. Worst case scenario: use your savings and supplement with personal loans to apply for a EB5 visa (costs about $800k)

3) Apply for permanent residency in places like Canada/Australia/NZ. If you're a FANG caliber developer, you'll be welcomed with open arms in most countries besides USA. You'll most likely take a big hit to your compensation, and being forced to move countries is never fun, but at least your life would be somewhat similar to living in USA
I don't think Apple is marketing it as heavily as you think at replacing Workplace laptops, but moreso consumer laptops. iPad is a delightfully simple device for consuming any kind of media, editing photos and videos, light to medium gaming, and doing little creative things.

if bullying in school is necessary for kids to learn how to cope with adult life then most children are going to fail, because most of them will not experience any bullying. so how does that help?

i must therefore disagree with that premise. i was bullied (thankfully just mildly) in school, and i learned nothing from it that would have been useful later.

what we need to kids to learn is that bullying is not part of life and should not be tolerated anywhere, but should be stopped whereever possible. if we want to help children then not by letting them learn how to cope with being bullied, but teaching all children how to not be a bully, and how to recognize when others are being bullied, and how to help both the one being bullied, as well as the bully, who may well act out because they are themselves coming from a difficult situation eg at home.

doing that in a school requires active involvement from teachers and parents. absent that, going to school doesn't provide any benefit on that issue.
Remember, if you aren't wealthy enough to be able to make these kinds of changes or buy a new home which doesn't need them, that means you're in the pocket of big oil. Or something, idk.
I think the problem is that if Facebook, Twitter and similar platforms were to publicly present an unambiguous defintion of what 'abusive content' is, then it would become fairly clear that they're engaging in selective enforcement of that standard based on characteristics of the perpetrator such as: market power, governmental influence, number of followers, etc.

For example, if the US State Department press releases start getting banned as misinformation, much as Russian Foreign ministry press releases might be, then I think this would result in a blowback detrimental to Facebook's financial interests due to increased governmental scrutiny. Same for other 'trusted sources' like the NYTimes, Washington Post, etc., who have the ability to retaliate.

Now, one solution is just to lower the standard for what's considered 'abusive' and stop promoting one government's propaganda above anothers, and focus on the most obvious and blatant examples of undesirable content (it's not that big of a list), but then, this could upset advertisers who don't want to be affiliated with such a broad spectrum of content, again hurting Facebook's bottom line.

Once again, an opportunity arises to roll out my favorite quote from Conrad's Heart of Darkness:

"There had been a lot of such rot let loose in print and talk just about that time, and the excellent woman, living right in the rush of all that humbug, got carried off her feet. She talked about ‘weaning those ignorant millions from their horrid ways,’ till, upon my word, she made me quite uncomfortable. I ventured to hint that the Company was run for profit."
> forcing you to bring up the man page

Man pages in OpenBSD for instance are a "must". In the GNU world, often man pages are really badly maintained pointing to GNU info. Also, the so called "Linux Howtos" were a disaster full of obsolete points.

Just compare the OpenBSDxy.html upgrading page (where m and n are release numbers) for OpenBSD releases (and the FAQ) to the Arch Wiki.
I manage a team of Solution Architects and I've hired many where this is their first "sales" job.

What kind of jobs are you applying to? If this is your first SA role, you should take a look at the technologies you use every day and apply to those vendors (and/or their competitors). You'll be able to speak credibly to their customers about your experiences and it'll make you a very effective SA.

In my experience, to hire a good SA, the sales skills come in a distant second to relevant technical skills. Rewrite your resume to highlight those skills and you'll have success.
Canoo ( https://www.canoo.com/ ), because that van looks cool!
In Seattle, we have a similar program. The tree comes with a donut-shaped water bag for twice weekly watering during the dry summer, and instructions for tree care for those first 5 years. The main takeaways I got were: don't bury the trunk (the top of the root system should just barely be above the dirt line) and amend the tree maybe once a year with coarse wood or bark mulch, leaving a couple inches of space around the trunk. Three years in, my tree seems to be flourishing.
This isn't contrary. Quite the opposite. None of the cases you present are iPad only. They are iPad alongside laptops. They might find cases where the iPad is fine, but none are iPad only.

And your "bonus" is basically an iPad Pro as a $1000+ chat device.

Now, if you mean that they added an iPad Pro, and eventually stopped ever using their laptop, that's a different story, but that's not what you said in your comment.

In short, the banana that preceded Cavendish was Gros Michel, which had different composition taste-wise. The earlier sweets/candies were based on the taste of those. Gros Michel suffered from diseases, stopped being the main cultivar and Cavendish took over with its different taste.

Hard to say without know how your team cuts a new release, but my guess is you'll want to track all these changes in your project management software. How do tickets move through your system from planning -> analysis -> dev -> QA -> production?

Your release process should in theory only be picking up changes for tickets that have made it to QA and are tagged as QA or passed QA in your project management system.

> What is the exact reason for such a big backlog ?

I would love to see a GANTT chart for all kinds government bureaucracy, not just visa approval. Everything from building permits to environmental impact studies, to issuances of drivers licenses... we just seem to accept that it vaguely takes a long time, but why? What physical actions all add up to 10 years? What actual activity does person A do, how long does it take, then what actual activity does person B then do if it's blocked on person A's work, how long between person A completes their task and person B picks up the work, and so on. Maybe I am just ignorant of the amount of time that these things actually take to approve, but I suspect the vast, vast amount of time is spent with people actually doing nothing: they're waiting for the previous step, sitting in meetings, picking their nose, doing other things besides the actual processing.

How does a building permit take 6 months? It should take 30 minutes to read the application, apply some criteria and stamp the paper. Does it really just sit in a queue for 5 months, 29 days, 23 hours, 30 minutes out of those 6 months?

> kind of weird and sometimes socially crippled
> A lot of home schooled kids are clearly from incredibly conservative religious fundamentalist families

I wonder if anti-social tendencies are more of a function of a child's home environment, in general, and not specifically related to homeschooling (though, of course, spending more time in the home would amplify the effect of that environment on a person's upbringing....).

I say that because I have spent time around a good number of home-schooled teenagers who live in stable, middle-class, non-extremist households and I can say that basically all of them are able to socially function at a very high level (well above average). Sure they might be hip with the latest Zoomer lingo (are teenagers still Gen-Z?) but they understood how to have intelligent conversations with adults as well as their peers (e.g. look someone in the eye when speaking to them, express their thoughts and opinions clearly, listen and understand what was being said to them).
Honest question: other than the phrase "It's been a disaster of a Government with disastrous policies" which is really negative, but I still consider it a valid point of view. What is emotionally charged in the language?

The word "fraudulently" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. As I understand it, the bar to get into "fraud" territory is actually pretty far down the spectrum.

Dating people and limiting people you go on dates with the "US Citizens" because you want to be able to actually have a life that doesn't involve one/both of you being deported is 100% not fraud, or illegal. If you main reason for having a relationship with someone is to get a green card, but you still have a bonafide relationship with that person, it is not illegal. It may make you a shitty person, but it's not illegal.

A conspiracy to lie to USCIS about your relationship, which typically involves purposely arranging and/or fabricating evidence of a relationship *is* fraud, and is definitely illegal.

This is the reason the Semantic Web never took off—people on the internet can't even agree on what a "sandwich" is, let alone the exact hierarchy of ontology.

This is an area where large language models have a role to play—whatever you're hoping to achieve with user-generated tags can probably be achieved with ML-powered associations or navigation. And the potential benefit is that it could be tailored to each user—so you're only surfacing "Hot Dogs" when certain users click "Sandwich."
This is a glimpse of the aerospace industry behind the curtain. Much of it is backed by the filipino and hispanic working class in LA.

Certainly. If the biosphere cannot stand in the way of economic progress in a free society, what chance does it stand when stacked against the high moral ambition of lifting all of humanity out of poverty at the behest of a totalitarian state.

In the end, the Soviet Union intended to develop it's own consumer capitalism, albeit heavily mediated through the state. You can see late Soviet propaganda which attempts to entice the public's support through pictures of families in the newest apartment projects with TVs and cozy new clothing.
Eh, I don't think Putin himself is the mastermind. He just bullies his underlings into figuring out how to actually do things, and throws tantrums when he doesn't get what he wants. Like Trump, he really just seems like a big evil baby, and I highly doubt he pulls his weight in any kind of strategic planning that requires true brain power. He's not even a good orator, or creative liar. He literally just says the opposite of the truth, which makes him easy to figure out in a way.

He has only one skill, like the orange man, and that is demanding personal enrichment at all costs. He is, at the end of the day, just another basic KGB neanderthal.
I actually quit jobs without next being lined up. And in retrospect these were the best decisions. Sometimes it's better to cut loses/bad fit and concentrate on the future than dragging it on and draining yourself.
