It's not the kernel maintainer's job to care about unsupported hardware any more than they need to worry about upstreaming the Linux fork designed to run on iPhones. This is the problem with trying to maintain community-sourced patches for complex hardware architectures; getting Linux to run on Mac is not a priority. It's not a machine designed for Linux, and Apple makes no effort to cooperate with the maintainers of the Linux kernel.

If Apple (the company with ~$200,000,000,000 in cash reserves) worked with the community here, there wouldn't be any issues here.
Stars do show parallax, but the amount of parallax they show is consistent with the stars being much further than 1 lightyear. And "proof"? Proofs are for mathematics.

Holograms, iphone screens... what are you even on about? Are you alluding to the firmament, e.g. the idea that stars are merely dots of light painted on a surface very near to earth? Have you been reading the bible or something? Read this instead: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stellar_parallax If you're going to wander off into lala land, you at least owe it to yourself to understand the theories and evidence you are casually discarding.
Isn't some amount of severance legally required during layoffs? That's not "buying someone out" that's complying with the law.
As someone who supported Biden at the time of his withdrawal from Afghanistan, I think it's unreasonable to equate criticism of his Afghanistan withdrawal (one area of "inaccurate information" DHS was targeting) to the promotion of cults and political violence. Even so, if an individual goes so far as to ignore Occam's razor as to ascribe to QAnon, then I'm certain that such a nut-job would flock to other, equally ridiculous, conspiracy theories. Furthermore, our government can be wrong, e.g. Powell's disastrous UN speech that ignored the State Department's own intelligence [1].

At a fundamental level, one must ask why people are attacking 5G towers, storming the Capitol, and calling for violence against politicians: they believe their voices are not being heard. Censorship and banishment to alt-tech platforms only reinforces that belief.

To use the words of Scalia in "R.A.V. v. City of St. Paul", I believe the government "has sufficient means at its disposal to prevent such behavior without adding the First Amendment to the fire" [2].

I'm waiting for the next TSMC process node for my next laptop purchase.
Can you cite where it’s been said he’s firing 25% (or any significant percentage) “for
cause”?

The only parties being cited as fired for cause are the outgoing executives, and WaPo article at the top of this post provides reasons for that.
Brilliant observation.

In a way, all might be a huge early optimization.
We've known that lines of code were no indication of code quality or developer productivity for well over two decades now -- why would it start to matter now, particularly for those at more senior levels?

Circling, circling, circling - but no specific analysis, citations, or criticisms of Tesla's stated logic. Gainsaying isn't a positive contribution to a conversation.
Those are exactly the kinds of things I was thinking of when I suggested that proto is designed for Google scale.

It’s not that smaller companies never have these problems. It’s that, at smaller companies, the ways in which they manifest themselves and the cost/benefit ratios tend to favor different solutions to these problems. For example, the company I was at that stuck with Proto2 so they could keep required fields, all the engineers worked in a single room, and could resolve questions about the needs of all a protocols consumers by simply standing up and saying, "Hey everybody, …"
Every jurisdiction is different in details, of course, but "at-will" just means you can fire someone, not that you get to decide what happens after unilaterally (e.g. you may owe severance)
I think there will always be this conflict between the state and the open internet. The state is an institution of the past, and the internet is an institution of the future that transcends any state in particular

The critical question is this: how can we preserve an open internet without opening the door for foreign governments to wage psychological warfare?
I bet my shirt that the measure is flawed.

I mean look at the chart showing the change in productivity. It's all over the place. Productivity is a cultural thing that doesn't suddenly jumps up and down.
I have the appropriate tarsnap key printed out and stored in a physical location known to my loved ones.

They're not particularly keen on the idea of having to type in two pages of private key but as I point out, it's both (a) a good opportunity to learn about OCR and (b) not my problem.
this is where things get trickier for me. don't all the social media giants have rights to free speech as well, allowing them to do whatever they want with regards to promoting / disseminating content on their site ?
it seems like the government is not forcing them to do anything, it seems like the companies are the one's taking action since the government portal is just to make requests. there might be nuance here if the company allows a government official to remove content directly but even then it might still be legal. can you prevent a private company / individual from giving someone else control over their speech ?

within that context though, perhaps you are saying that it is or should be illegal for government employees to ask . . . i'll have to think some more about what my opinion is there, i have no idea what the laws are around something like that. as a hyperbolic extrapolation, since you mention police, is it or should it be illegal for a police officer to ask someone not to call them a mean word ?
Can't blame them honestly. There was that Project Veritas video where they talked to some employees and they don't even hide how big of assholes they are.
It could not take gc discs.
Regarding your edit, we know how recruiting works. What people are genuinely upset about is the lack of empathy for the job seeker, who is wasting their time, in the game as you play it (and the strong assumption that this is the only way the game is played).
Before ExtensionKit you could only make app extensions to extend the functionality of Apple provided systems. Things like authentication, file sync and badging in the Finder, Xcode text editors, or Final Cut Pro editing extensions. With ExtensionKit you can make your own extension points and let people develop extensions for your apps on all Apple platforms.

The code editor Chime just released extension support in their 2.0 release if you are on macOS 13. They have a lot of good details on how the implemented the feature on their blog. https://www.chimehq.com/blog/extensionkit-intro
Some of the responses here are a classic case of Fundamental Attribution Error - I see a lot of assumptions that imply that the employers must not be adding salaries because they are malicious or bad actors (which, of course there are some). But the overwhelming majority of these employers probably don't even know for themselves the salary that they're willing to pay, since compensation is highly variable based upon the individual's experience and complex market factors.

Should they all have better data, better perspectives, and better job specs? Sure thing. I agree. You'd hire much better people, that's for sure.

On the other hand, should we regulate them into compliance on this matter? Ironically, it seems like a great opportunity to add inefficiency and possibly even have a net negative impact on salaries.

I say, let them ship crappy job descriptions and let the market sort it out.
We need to urgently optimize Boomers and GenXers know-how transfer to millenials or we're toasted.
Maybe an even simpler explanation is that productively is roughly calculated as GDP / employed workers.

Productivity almost always goes up in a recession, especially one accompanied with massive layoffs (like early COVID).

Productivity is going down right now compared to 2020 because we are pretty much at full employment.

These productivity measurements aren’t really tracking individual productivity at all.

The Wii U could play gamecube games in wii mode, but it required jailbreaking and loading the images onto storage. So, I wouldn't say it was "possible" ootb.

Ad hominem, but no content.
Not in general, no. They do count the dollars, but they also measure the dollar-to-quantity ratios of various goods and services. The final productivity measure is based on these adjustments.

So if the amount of money that is exchanging hands goes up but the amount of goods and services produced stays the same, then the measured productivity does not go up.

You may be thinking about how GDP is calculated, specifically regarding government employees. For this category of spending, the "quantity" measured for the dollars-to-quantity ratio is simply the number of government employees. So as long as the government is hiring more people, the money they spend on those people counts towards real GDP, regardless of what those people are doing.

However, government spending is not used in calculating productivity, which measures only certain parts of the private sector where it is possible to also measure output of goods and services instead of relying on measures like 'employee counting'.

You might be right but a lot of this stuff is based on the calculation that most people do not have the assets to wage a lengthy legal battle when they’re newly unemployed. I’ve heard a lot of stories about wildly illegal things which either went completely unchallenged or became moot because the company went busy with no assets.
I don't work in the industry. But just because you "worked on AA games" before doesn't make you correct.

This detailed architectural overview of the 360 discusses the hypervisor:

This YouTuber, who is an industry vet, and has done several xbox ports claims the XB360 has a hypervisor:

And there entries in the CVE database for the XB360 which describe the ability to run code in "hypervisor mode":

This detailed article on the above exploit goes into detail on how the memory model works on the XB360, including how main memory addressing works differently in hypervisor mode than in real mode:

That's a whole lot of really smart people discussing a topic that you claim doesn't exist.
This is interesting to learn about. How expensive is it, and do you know if it differs around the world (since there are lots of national ISBN agencies)?
I'm afraid entire political system runs on populism. It gives them free pass to any idea they want to push.
Not an exact definition, but it is how fast the experience converts to skill. Imagine two people spending 100 hours doing the same thing, one of them improves more than the other.
Scanning downloads on macOS in realtime for security vulnerabilities
Detect known security vulnerabilities in real-time in packages, libraries, and all sorts of downloads on your macOS. If you are a developer using a mac machine, you end up downloading all kinds of frameworks and libraries. Mac Scan detects known security vulnerabilities in real-time on all these downloads.
Length of contract and year it ended would give enough information to most people, I think.

For example:
"6 month contract ended in 2021, and paid $125/hr"

You'd also be able to show how income has trended over time and possibly overlay it with macro economic events to try to put odd data into context.

UI Browser 4
At Uni as a summer job I worked processing Corporate Actions for a large custodial bank. We used exactly the same kind of system where every action was 4 characters. I can still remember some of them despite it being 10 years since I did that job. Even more importantly, the screens were trivially scriptable so lots of the grunt work could be handled by writing export scripts, pulling a bunch of data into excel, processing it and occasionally posting the results back the same way.

Absolutely no way a modern system could be half as efficient, short of completely automating the whole job (which involved a lot of communication with other parties and basically freeform restrictions).
Any programming language you can teach to process protobuf or other binary formats you can teach to process JSON. The hardest part of the JSON spec is UTF-8 support and if your programming language doesn't have strong UTF-8 support in 2022 you have other, presumably larger problems.
You need to be respectful of everyone's time. If I apply to a position that will never offer me what I want to make then you just wasted my time and yours. You are asking me to be upfront about absolutely everything, I'm asking for one key detail. I do not think that you appreciate my side of this bargain at all. This is not a one-way deal, we need to cooperate and be able to work together toward a solution if this is ever going to work out. I'm choosing to work with you, not choosing you as my dictator. If you are not willing to work with me a little then I'm going to keep looking, your loss not mine.
Each of those services can be a unikernel being managed by a type 1 hypervisor.
My local Aldi is advertising $16.50/hr + benefits. Average rent for a 1BR in the general area is $1000-1200ish.

As for me personally, I don't think I could be more productive if I tried. I finish work and then look to pick something up - are there isn't anything ready. If I try to make something ready, people want everything run past a committee to gain consensus. Twice in the past 6 months, I've spent 2 weeks developing a plan, running things past people, and then I come to a single question and the response is "hmm, you know, let's not work on this right now".

This morning I was on an email chain in which one executive had committed us to paying $$$$ for some consultants to do something, and he wanted the CTO to do some checks to make sure our system could handle it. But what exactly? The CTO had no idea what he was asking for. They went back and forth, and I'm nearly positive that they were both acting in good faith, but for the life of them they couldn't communicate. And so a bunch of workers are going to sit around with nothing to do, collecting their paycheck.

I've been doing this now for over 20 years, I'm fairly senior, and I deal with executive-level people a lot. I've never seen anything like what's going on, and it's totally unfair to blame this entirely on workers (they aren't blameless either, tbh).
This is such a bad comment. Nobody is suggesting free speech for government employees during the performance of their jobs. Would you think it was ironic that somebody who supported the 1st Amendment would object to the FBI writing letters to MLK convincing him to kill himself? Would that be something you loved, or not?
I don't think you intended to create that impression, but I didn't go looking for it either. It's created by phrasing like

> In this post, I’ll be presenting an alternative to the traditional strategy of manual memory management that I’ve had success with: the arena allocator.

and

> My approach, on the other hand, is this: instead of assuming that malloc and free were the correct low-level operations, we can change the memory allocation interface...

Together with a complete absence of any reference to the history of the technique or any of the people besides you involved in its development.

It's not an accusation, but it's a clarification worth making as I genuinely think someone without knowledge of the subject could come away thinking you were presenting your own innovation.
> you can still feed the big corps with your data if that's what you prefer

This is an app for MacOS, the desktop operating system that sends Apple telemetry after every time you open an app. The notion that Chime is more private than comparable open-source editors is an outright lie, I welcome you to prove me wrong.
The rise of Iran's drone industry
Yeah! (shakes cane)

I began coding in the late 80s as a hobby. It led to a career in programming, beginning in the 90s, just out of high school. Turbo Pascal was my first "serious" language. I'm not retired yet.
> But models aren't real, and never will be.

Of course they aren't real, that's the entire point.

A model is a simplified mathematical description which, within a specified domain ie range of input values, is able to provide predictions.

The models we care about provide useful predictions, ie ones that match measurements to a sufficient degree, with a limited number of inputs[1].

For an additional $1/year, you can buy a custom domain to use with it.

Do you mean $1/month? Most .com, .org, and .net domains I've seen cost ~$12/year.

At this point I'm starting to believe that Apple begrudgingly accepts that people outside that UFO that landed in Cupertino should be granted the privilege to develop applications for their hardware.
So basically, everyone is finally admitting that this tech was a pipe dream all along except for very niche and highly-controlled use cases, and that we've been propagandized by VCs and con-men and hypnotized by cheap Fed dollars for a decade now.

Who coulda node?
Have you used it?

I can easily see what domains are blocked in the web ui and see that Adobe products are trying to phone home so often and which clients are trying to resolve what domains.
From a security point of view, the benefits of cookies are that your script cannot read the value of the cookie. Sure, malicious code could make requests through the browser, but they won't be able to retrieve the access token which would be a bigger compromise.
I believe there already are plenty (objc.io, Swift by Sundell, Hacking w/ Swift, many more), where they're both technical and tutorial style info.

But I still feel that, as paying developers (membership fees, and giving out 15-30% of sales to Apple), we should get all the basic info needed without relying on third parties to get it.
> The sweeping New York City rules will apply to almost all companies except for the smallest firms. Any business with at least four workers, assuming at least one of them is based in the city, must include the lowest and highest salaries for any job it posts.

...so, uh, question, because I'm getting increasingly confused about how jurisdiction works.

Let's say Houston passes a law which makes it illegal for companies to disclose salary ranges. I have no idea why Houston would do that, but stupider laws exist.

BigCorp has employees in both Houston and New York City. Heck, BigCorp probably has at least one job which requires alternating between NYC and Houston to meet with different teams. How does BigCorp avoid breaking the law?
I’ve been watching both Intel and Meta stock with interest. They’re in a fairly similar situation. The reason why Intel trades at a P/E of 15 while Meta is hovering around 10 must be mostly the dividend. The market doesn’t trust Zuck but it still has some trust in Gelsinger to somehow balance the dividend with the massive fab investments.

If Intel gives up on the dividend, they could be down another 30-40% to Meta-like P/E levels.
It's an interesting concept but that price is unreasonable to my frugal self. I would consider a paid for $400 but obviously my finances are vastly less than their target demographic.
Who cares about the debt? Trust me. The debtors will find your estate and if they don’t, your dead anyway.

The main area to record would be asset accounts, valuables held in safe deposit boxes, files, or secret locations holding things like cash, stamps, coins, treasury certificates, partnership agreements, titles, deeds, etc.
It's not about conspiracy. Christianity isn't a conspiracy. It's about belief, dogma, and for folks of a certain nature, REAL SCIENCE.

NASA is just a church pushing doctrine. I'm challenging their dogma. If it had been the Vatican or Putin, my argument would be the same.
Germany has spent hundreds of billons developing solar and wind, and yet they are deindustrializing now with just a moderate decrease in natural gas supply. People are going into forests, chopping down trees in European countries when faced with a reduction in fossil fuel supply. In that case, what hope is there for a developing country?

Wind and Solar are not -- and have never been -- a replacement for reliable energy sources, because the energy storage problem has not been solved for them. This is not what solar advocates want to hear, but it's the truth.

Nuclear, on the other hand, is a reliable source of energy. Hydro and geothermal are also reliable, but their supply is limited.
out of curiosity: still using atom or vscode or switched to something else?
"Easily" is doing a lot of work there.
This is not the first time a twitter employee has implied a light work schedule. There were posts when the first Elon buyout rumor came around about twitter employee reporting remote work amounting to around 30 hours a week..

This just adds fuel to the fire that for the most part Twitter has a bunch of part time employee getting very high full time wages.

Now there is a large segment of the population that believe 32 hour work weeks should be standard, if your one of those then I suppose their posts will not spark much respond, but for most people that will spark strong negative emotions.

> She describes what amounts to maybe an hour of break time, including lunch -- the rest of her day is meetings and working time.

then it should not be labeled as "a day in the life"

Watching the video the person comes away with an impression this is more than just 1 hour of the day. I also suspect you are giving this person far too much credit for the amount of work they did that day. I am guessing it was more like 1 hour of real work, couple hours of meetings, and the rest socializing / using the "amenities"
I guess I should clarify that my point was purely in abstract and not specific to the XBox situation.

Of course in reality it depends on the hypervisor and the deployed configuration. Running a database under an ESXi VM with SSDs connected to a passed-through PCIe controller (under x86_64 with hardware-assisted CPU and IO virtualization enabled and correctly activated, interrupts working correctly, etc) gives me performance numbers within the statistical error margin when compared to the same configuration without ESXi in the picture.

I haven’t quantified the GPU performance similarly but others have and the performance hit (again, under different hypervisors) is definitely not what you make it out to be.

My point was that if there’s a specific performance hit, it would be pedantically incorrect to say “virtualizing the GPU is the problem” as compared to saying “the way MS virtualized GPU access caused a noticeable drop in achievable graphics.”
If this were to happen, then wouldn't people just start "checking out" on Thursdays?
Teaching everyone to be a better person is very necessary and important.
But most of the prisoners believe that they are still good people inside.
Also, Nazis believed they are working towards greater good.

I believe the truth is the first step. Yes, also by means of education.
One can not be a better person if he is manipulated to think he already is.

This is also an option to break social media bubbles where people only get information that already confirms their beliefs.
So what have the engineers working on this been up to for the last 5 years? Nothing?
