That Goomics comic was shown in my Noogler training. I thought it was a joke, but I've learned it's definitely not a joke.
I currently use a latest-gen iPad Air.

I used the iPad Pro before the redesign for school.

Currently a lot of my friends use the device as a second screen because they're always traveling. Secondly, many content creators use it as a portable workstation because it works really well for certain types of editing. I personally prefer Lightroom on an iPad to the one on the computer. Lastly, it's my favorite media consumption device. I've been thinking of turning in my iPad Air for the newest iPad Pro because I want the improved screen.

Very cool! I like that the author chose socket-based communication over a C FFI, which I assume might lead to better reliability and a cleaner API on the Lisp side. Are there any disadvantages to sockets vs. FFI? Any additional, perceivable latency?

This is false. All US military navigation systems, including the referenced drone, are primarily inertial and always have been. These systems can optionally accept fine-tuning GPS corrections, but only if those corrections are within the tight (classified) error margins of the inertial navigation system. It is a misconception that the US has ever used GPS for primary guidance in weapon systems; even cheap throwaway weapons like JDAM are primarily inertial. The kind of influence possible via manipulation of GPS is measured in meters. State-of-the-art INS technology is now good enough that the US military is considering phasing out GPS corrections for some newer systems.

GPS was designed for the purpose of accurately measuring the Earth during peacetime to build a precise model the world that could be used for inertial navigation systems in wartime. It was never intended to be used as a critical navigation system since it could be trivially destroyed by the Soviet Union when it was designed. Civilian systems tend to not concern themselves with this vulnerability and therefore happily use it for navigation.
What did you find to be misleading about the headline? I'm only asking because it made me think of a black-market-sold drug ("illicit drug") that was recently encountered and recognized as distinctly different ("new"; "has been discovered") from other current-market drugs, which seems to match the description you gave of the article.
I was curious about this too:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Secret_Service#I...

Cyber investigations include cybercrime, network intrusions, identity theft, access device fraud, credit card fraud, and intellectual property crimes. […] The Secret Service has concurrent jurisdiction with the FBI over certain violations of federal computer crime laws. They have created 24 Electronic Crimes Task Forces (ECTFs) across the United States. These task forces are partnerships between the service, federal/state and local law enforcement, the private sector and academia aimed at combating technology-based crimes.

The housing market is quite peculiar in many aspects.

The article is right about the effect of interest rates, they tend to push the prices up when they are low and having high interest rates will reduce demand of people who are using houses as investment assets.

This is far from marginal but also not the complete picture.

Most homeowners are living in them, and most potential home buyers are looking to do the same.

The core (and thus the long-term trends) of the supply/demand game in the housing market is directly related to demography.

Short term panic can occur, but unless people are dying _en masse_ or you wait long enough to see effect the demographic slowdown in your area, I don't think the housing market is susceptible to crash durably.

I think it would be an excellent thing if it could stabilize.
If I look at the bike angles website, it looks like all the rewards are credits or swag, and it's unclear if you get charged for the bike rides - seems like you need to already pay for a membership in order to not lose money doing this. It's unclear how anyone is doing this to make money, but I guess you can take opportune bike rides to get some kickbacks.

The redundancy Flatpak and Snap induce is nothing in comparison to hundreds of, say, coreutils packages - each for some Linux distribution and its supported versions.

Also I don't think tracking dependencies is the root problem, rather different applications requiring different dependency versions, which leads to even more redundancy on top of the aforementioned one. And if you avoid providing different lib versions, you end up with silly application version freezes until next distribution version is released along with updated repos.

Rpm/deb/etc. repositories simply don't scale. You either end up with a small well-maintained repo, or a huge one with many abandoned or version-frozen packages. Not to mention you'd have to write sandboxing rules for each distro version separately, which is why most distros do not provide complete sandboxing at all. Perhaps there are some distributions inbetween, but not in my experience.

I do understand current Flatpak's and Snap's technical limitations. I just think they will be solved, sooner or later. I'd be happy to use Guix or Nix instead of Toolbox, but currently their requirements conflict with how rpm-ostree treats system's root directory.
I'd take Burp Suite over cURL.

Your first sentence is not accurate as, by default, the Asahi installer sets up a separate partition for dual-boot purposes. The Asahi developers have even recommended keeping this configuration in order to receive future firmware updates from Apple.

Even so, SpaceX can launch 50 satellites in one launch, and each suborbital interceptor can only hit one. And the "if it had navigation" part is doing a lot of work in that sentence; a satellite interceptor kill vehicle is not easy to build. Are 50 of them cheaper than one Falcon 9 launch with a 15x reused booster? I think "maybe" is the only possible answer, but probably the cost of killing all the satellites that way would be around the same order of magnitude as putting them up in the first place. You would need to build multiple whole factories just to make the thousands of interceptors you would need.

No, Live Nation owns/leases small/midsize places like House of Blues. But they don't own the Honda Center. That's owned by the City of Anaheim. When Jay Z comes to down, he's not playing the House of Blues.

This situation repeats in practically every major metro. The massive arenas are probably owned by the city, or maybe the owner of the team that plays in them.

Which goes back into my argument, they own some venues. But not all of them, and certainly not the major arenas that mega artists play in.

If every candidate in front of me were competent enough to fulfill the role, I wouldn't need an interview process period. For some hires there's no need for an interview process, but most do, and the benefit of an interview process is that it's open to anyone.

>Why are you passing bad candidates on to your co-workers?

How does this follow from anything I've said?

I use a M1 12.9 iPad for mostly work. It is a glorified email machine that I use for the Microsoft suite of business products (Outlook, Teams, Office, etc.). I can either use an iPad to directly work with these apps, or use a laptop to Citrix in and have a Remote Desktop. The iPad is really fast and the display is amazing. But, I would gladly give it up for the small Surface Go that I own personally, but the apps running directly on my hardware are not supported or permitted by my IT group. So I am stuck with the iPad. It is heavier than a M1 or M2 air, and doesn’t have the same full functionality. Again, I would gladly give it up for small, light and convenient. It really isn’t even good as a media consumption machine because of the screen format. But is everything on it a smooth, buttery experience? You bet. But it isn’t worth the money for the beauty of the screen. I bought it as a hope to utilize it as a single device, but the limitations of the device and lock down strategy behind the os limits its true depth of functionality (at least what the hardware would permit) and forces me to keep a mini running as a home server to remotely connect to. I regret the purchase, if you hadn’t guessed.
No, Gil and Ellen were incompetent. If they had understood how to separate the wheat from the chaff, a useful version of Copland could have been out in 1997. They were not willing to say no and fire people. The first thing Steve did when he took over? Mass layoff.

It was absolute malpractice to buy NeXT for the OS, which was an obsolete, moribund, and expensive version of Unix.

What they ended up getting was adult management, which was not what they bought the company for, but was what Apple needed.

I am a huge proponent of normalizing work from home / remote work for this reason. Arbitrary, economically forced turnover (i.e., location requirements from corporations) is very disruptive for human life and childhood development. As a kid, I averaged one move per year due to job availability being tied to location of said job. If housing turnover was primarily a matter of personal preference, not economic necessity, the world would be a more stable, healthier place.
Now the question is: if I write a web scraper that collects data from LinkedIn, and I do it on weekend as a hobby project, but I end up with personal data of 1M people is it still a "personal or household activity"?
I don't think that's at all the goal or even vague direction of the Asahi Linux project. It's to replace macOS, not to run as a VM within it.

It's already possible to do what you want, with Parallels and any modern arm64 Linux distro, as long as the games are compiled for arm64 / you're willing to take the performance hit of emulation.
"Server apps" can just be systemd services with isolation configured to your liking. Even if it's necessary that the service include some arbitrary subset of userspace, that can still be done with systemd portable services.

How many specialists did you go to before it was identified?

How many other people with the condition were misidentified?

I only say this because of a family member with a rare genetic condition. For years they were told it was something else, or told 'it was in their head'. The family member started a journal of their medical conditions and experiences that was detailed then brought that to their PC which whom then sent them to a specialist, this specialist wasn't sure and sent them to another specialist that had a 3 month wait. After 5+ years of living with increasing severity of the condition it was identified.

So, just saying, it's as much likely that the condition was identified because you kept a detailed list (on paper or in your mind) of the aliments and presented them in a manner that helped with the final diagnosis.

The paper goes over that too: 1. The brain uses information to build models, 2. all brain models are necessarily inaccurate.

Therefore quale are inaccurate models of perceptions and/or models of perceptual memory, where some information has been thrown away, as we do with all models. The redness of an apple is a distorted sense memory of the apple, just with all the "appleness" thrown away leaving only the "redness", which is why they seem so vague and ephemeral.

My advice is to get 'ML' on your resume, some way, somehow, along with some selection of: TypeScript, React, Python, C#, Java, Linux, and Kubernetes.

Start with a good online free course like https://www.coursera.org/specializations/machine-learning-in...

You don't have to be a full-bore data scientist to benefit from the surging interest in ML -- for example, I've made my current focus 'UX for data scientists', I focus on trying to make interfaces that are pleasing to people working in ML, and this, I am pleased to say, just got my ass hired.

It's also salient to know that, over the next decade, while tech salaries will likely trend down (esp. as CoPilot, nocode/lowcode, etc continue to make our lives easier and hence less lucrative ;D) the *amount of addressable work* in ML specifically will almost certainly offset this change.

YMMV in other tech specializations, but I'd still rather be in our industry than most others. Again, there's plenty of work in MLOps that does not require being a data scientist.

Finally, if you can physically live in a geolocation with lower cost of living (or better yet, a currency that is weaker than USD) you can be the lower-cost option that everyone ditches Fancy McSanFransiscoPants for in 2023. Be sure to blog and show your work on GH ;D

> How likely is this to make some kind of stride in the macOS gaming world?

It doesn't make any strides unfortunately.

> Perhaps some kind of "headless" Linux VM

Linux narrowly supports the Steam Deck's goals. It doesn't make sense to use on a device like a Mac.

> Can someone with more knowledge than me explain if that is feasible in the coming months/years?

An end user is best served by Parallels. Overall, it doesn't make sense to run Windows-only games on a Mac.

That's my interpretation as well, except I'd go a step further and say it's time-independent based on what we've seen of quantum entanglement. There's no reason to resolve a particle's state if it's not interacting with anything, but once you do you can safely define the entangled pair's state retroactively because it hasn't interacted with anything either.

So what we end up seeing is that after you measure one particle, the other behaves as if it always had the complementary value. It's not faster-than-light spooky action at a distance, it's more akin to reality "resolving" to a consistent time-independent state.

You might see a few games like Diablo 2 or DOOM running, but modern games are almost totally out of the question. The biggest roadblock is getting a complete Vulkan driver, which is at least a few years off. That would allow for DXVK to run, which enables the majority of Proton titles.

And then there's the issue of the stack itself. It's hard enough getting Wine and DXVK to run on hardware designed to run Windows/DirectX respectively, but running it through Rosetta/Box86, on Asahi, using half-finished video drivers, is probably not great for stability. Just my $0.02.

Edit: I thought you were talking about Asahi gaming. The state of Proton on MacOS is hopeless (Valve devs abandoned it after the Catalina announcement), but you can definitely run it in a VM if you're so-inclined. Wouldn't necessarily be any faster than using Windows in a VM, but it's still an option.
Any sort of regulation around web accessibility is so much more nuanced than building a ramp up to a restaurant, having the right clearance under a sink, or offering braille menus. It's orders of magnitude more complex in scale and requirements.

I'm positive that, in general, the web needs to do so much better when it comes to web accessibility, but we might not be ready for regulation without a lot of guardrail around what types of sites are regulated. At least start with government sites, education, etc. and work out the kinks first.
