The only sync option? My Pictures go to NextCloud, my contacts and calendar are on NextCloud, and in contrast to Android (I recently switched) I don't even need an app (like davx5, great app though, as said here) to sync them, it all just works from the standard contacts and calendar app. Oh and the mail app doens't push me anywhere, it just works with my local provider via IMAP.

My vpn is a Wireguard server (and some Tailscale, recently tested mullvad, works great as well), my position is updated to my family via Home Assistant, Bitwarden pops up automatically anywhere I need to enter a password. Podverse is great for podcasts.

Sure, it's a walled garden and I have my annoyances but much less so than I was led to believe before I got my first iPhone last year. I find it easy to swap out default components where I don't like them (like iCloud and Apple podcasts) and use them when they are superior (like the calendar and mail app, I was always trying 3rd party apps on Android).
It’s not just extra hops: there’s no network! (In distributed SQLite for reads at least.) Great for read-heavy workloads, and no n+1 query problems.

Concurrent readers is no problem. No concurrent writes right now.

You actually can ask ChatGPT to cite its sources.

Unfortunately, the sources it cites are very often completely made up, despite looking like extremely good sources.

Counterpoint: I know who Ian Fleming is, but I had to Google Le Carré. I am aware of Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy and some of his other works, but they aren't lodged in my head the way James Bond is.

And I think that's the point of Fleming's essay. He wasn't writing to be high art, he was writing to make money. Fleming avoided deep plots and emotional exploration, because those detracted from the guttural response he wanted out of his readers.
In the case of that page, the answer is "because somebody's setting line-height to 1 for the body copy and the paragraphs are Too Damn Long"
The "shiny stuff" is almost all retreads and new clothes on old ideas. Containers and VMs? Around for decades in various forms. Cloud? That was mainframe computing years ago. CI/CD? Had it back in the '70s. Same with TDD. A hallmark of the software industry: almost nothing truly new gets introduced, but old ideas and technologies get a new coat of paint, a buzzword, and make more sense today because the hardware and networking have improved by orders of magnitude.

Anyone who learned C back in the '70s or '80s can pick up most newer languages quickly. Relational databases, the core of every non-trivial business application, date from the '80s.

My advice: don't worry about or focus on your age, don't make excuses, don't try to persuade people you haven't turned into a dinosaur. Focus on business needs and how you can solve problems and add value. Ageism in tech certainly exists but you mainly run into it when a team of younger people interview someone their dad's age and don't see a good fit with the team. And they're right about that -- I won't work 18 hrs/day for free pizza and beer anymore, and I don't play foosball or need a nap room.
Pretty cool that I get a simple summary of information with citations. Would love it if it were a little bit more conversational considering that's a huge strength of GPT. Would love to see how this develops further.
Are you able to talk about what kind of hardware is on the satellite? I'm curious if it's commodity like the Mars helicopter or something made for the purpose.
It's not clear that the existing selection processes at most universities actually adds value in proportion to its cost. What value, and to who? What are the shortcomings you think they're trying to fix?

Even if everyone agreed on a standard and its impact on admissions (+3 for participation in the Model UN, for example) it's not clear how we'd judge "better results" as we evaluate our admissions criteria. Are we optimizing for an even racial/religious mix of students? Higher output grades? Higher wages? More children raised successfully by the age of 40?

Then even with an agreed upon goal and some objective measures to used to approach it - is it worth doing? If we could get 1% better results by doubling the difficulty of the application process for the students then it probably wouldn't be worth doing it when the plan was considered holistically. What's an acceptable trade-off? What's the cost on transparency and perception of bias when we start considering subjective criteria?
The physical security key is interesting as it shows a lightning port in the image. Maybe a sign that a portless iPhone isn't necessarily in the immediate future? I also wonder if there's another copy of the image showing a USB-C port, since it's assumed the iPhone 15 will be USB-C to comply with the EU's standard port requirements.
> What makes you think that companies would have been willing to make the effort to deploy "IPv4+" any more than IPv6?

I'm pretty sure that those who built new protocol were aware of this and were like "anyway we are gonna have to upgrade network devices. Why don't we build a new protocol while avoiding pitfalls of older one"

Any comittee that sat down to solve IPv4 issue would have thought of compatibility first.

I am shocked that so many people agree with OP's armchair solution here.
Great news. Law enforcement needs to find better ways to caught the bad guys. My data , is my business. I hope Apple doesn't implement a backdoor or something, and for real don't store encryption keys on their servers.
For those curious, I went and looked it up, and the one way (not round trip!) light travel time to the moon is about 1.3 seconds, and one way light travel time to mars is 3-22 minutes or so, depending on how far they are at the time.

So maaaaaybe you could have a really painful conversation with someone the moon, but not Mars.

edit: This is WITHOUT any latency introduced by the link/protocol, or if you have to then route the message from one side of the earth to the other, just time-of-flight distance calculations, so the absolute minimum possible latency.

The theory would be that it would be extralegal pressure. Out of the Snowden era, for this generation, came the belief that the government would use extralegal coercion to get what they want when it comes to domestic espionage. This showed up in eg how the government battled Yahoo over PRISM [0], and the story of Joseph Nacchio of QWest [1] supposedly being targeted by the Feds for refusing to go along with the program/s.

For prior generations, Hoover, Nixon, MLK (how they targeted him), the Church hearings, and many other things provided evidence as to the extralegal behavior of the government at times.

eSIM isn't any different here, it still runs the same applets. What makes it secure is the IOMMU preventing it from accessing main memory.
I used to write bare-metal C for my day job. It's pretty hard to get everything right when the language has so many sharp edges. I wouldn't want to use C for a bigger project (e.g. the kernel, drivers, a gui app) but I'd quite happily use Rust because the compiler will yell at me if I do something stupid

FWIW, there's a "product packaging hack"¹ that gives you 4TB if you pay for both Apple One Premium and iCloud+ at total cost of $40/mo. It's not a great value, but it's possible. I'd bet on them adding a 4TB plan in 2023.

FWIW, you can sync files with Nextcloud on IOS and it works fine. Also automatically syncs photos which makes it a viable alternative for cloud storage on iPhone. What it doesn't sync are things like settings, though.
Another factor, that other things are falling into the whole, wouldn’t that mean that the event horizon, relatively, gets closer to an earlier object? Meaning an object may reach the event horizon faster than it would originally or is that constant relatively where the object exist in its descend?

“ Come on, you have to admit that competition is lacking in the CPU space,”

Competition is lacking because Intel fucked up. Apple bet big on power sipping performance and it’s paid off. Why should they “help” the industry out when they’re so far ahead?

They also have no incentive to spend billions on R&D only to open it up to competition. That makes no sense. They’re not a platform like Microsoft is. MS wants an open platform hardware wise so they can sell more licenses of Windows. They’re different business models. Surely you see that?

“ FOSS people have no reason to like Apple, let alone to support them.”

Of course. And nowhere was I saying “FOSS” folks to support them just celebrate the work of your fellow hackers doing the equivalent of reverse engineering some Empire tech for the Rebellion. Does that metaphor work for you?

I admit I still use a 6-digit passcode, but if you're actually serious about protecting your data you should be using an alphanumeric password anyway. Even ignoring the server-side stuff, that single password unlocks most of the data on your phone.
This is known as "forward error correction". If the nature of the corruption is known and predictable, then you can design a reasonably efficient scheme to mitigate it. Otherwise, I suspect some amount of acknowledgement and retransmission at the MAC layer or above is a good idea. It really depends on the latency of the link, though, and the probability of corruption. If a round-trip delay is larger than a reasonable window size, and corruption is frequent, then FEC would help a lot. It's the only option for one-way comms such as digital broadcast television.
I think it's similar to what works for a lot of people regardless of age. Focus on a particular niche, learn how it works to the degree that you would be able to participate in that business, build tooling that would help you do that, let the people in that community know. The people who use you tools will ask you to make more tools.

To avoid ageism, focus on online communities on Twitter and Discord. They don't even need to see your face. 99% of the time they are happy to do a text or voice chat.

I'd like to add the most linters change things like line length and so on. However, this linter is changing the order of keys and values in a go struct (which I'd already formatted with go fmt), which makes it much harder to review than your typical line length change.
Oru could definitely improve its marketing here, but Oru kayaks (when used responsibly with appropriate gear in appropriate conditions) are nothing short of a quantum leap. Getting Oru kayaks has unlocked kayaking for many of my friends who would otherwise balk at having to install rails and pads, lift heavy kayaks on top of the car, tie it down correctly and effectively, and then unload it, paddle, load it again, unload it in the garage, and so on. With the Oru, they just throw it in the back, unfold it in about 8 minutes, enjoy the water, fold it back up in about 8 minutes, and that's it. If you have any friends who are not yet on the water, could not recommend them more, and I'll probably get Orus for myself from here on out.
I recall reading a blog post years ago where someone made a air quality raspberry pi thing and they lived in a major city. When their windows were open, air quality was shit, but reduced quite a bit with them closed.
Has the causal and temporal relationship between cooking and modern brain development been firmly established? The last time I looked into the literature I could find (a decade ago), there seemed to be a tantalizing correlation but enough noise in the timing of cooking to place it well short of being an well-accepted theory. And the question of what constitutes a "modern brain" and when our ancestors had it was an even fuzzier area.
I have used a control freak (mentioned above).

All the induction cooktops I've used (both builtin and plug-in) have been REALLY useless at temperature control. Even the heat settings leave a lot to be desired, they are very coarse.

The control freak is orders of magnitude better at temperature control. I suspect it is not only the design and quality of the sensors, but the algorithms used to maintain the temperature (probably good PID).

There are two sensors:

a small glass covered sensor built into the center of the heating element that is spring-loaded and gets the heat off the bottom of the pan.

a second plug-in sensor with a cable, that can be attached to the side of a pot using an insulator gadget and suspended in the middle of whatever you're cooking.

Another pretty critical part is the "programs" you can write.

For example, you could make a "hamburger" program to bring the pan up to temperature, then beep to add the burger, then flip it later, then remove it and do another.
I love blender, but the Python API is really unpythonic. I really wish you could treat the different things as objects and not by referencing then by their names. Nevertheless, it's pretty cool to automate some things I have to do at work (I am a civil engineer working in research)
Yeah they want to witness confrontation and take the winner. Its actually a strategy ive absolutely used a few times, basically creating random bullshit drama and vaguely humiliate a third party male in order to raise attraction in a girl i was aiming for. Some people would say its bad but the more i live the more i think "its life and you cant change it" (and also that confrontation brings the best of people) so i think its fine on a the bigger picture.

The danger is that also works both ways, some girls lose all attraction if their man lose at something in any way. I will always actively try to avoid crying in front of a girl I love (despite her thinking she wants that), and also actively avoid having my girl in a situation where she can see me lose somehow.
Consistently inconsistent. But it took me ages to figure this out. Hence me looking for an enhanced way to review
Doesn't that assume that people only think beautiful art is "worthwhile"? People - in particular the sort of people who deeply care about art - may see value in ugly art, if the ugliness helps achieve the goals of the artwork.
But that doesn't mean they want to deal with C code in their free time.
Theoretically you could attach to a process with LLDB, and use objc swizzling to intercept calls to NSUserDefaults. However to do this, I think you would need to disable SIP. Even then i'm not sure this would work.

In practice, people probably just read user defaults and try to reverse engineer what they do.

> anyone claiming that it does hasn't thought about it very hard yet.

Or maybe you haven't given enough thought to what "beauty" might mean such that it could be objective. Not everyone means by "beauty" "that which I find appealing". Some mean "the will's response to truth": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transcendentals

A wonderful example of this is given in _All Hallows Eve_ by Charles Williams:

> "Over here," Jonathan said, and took his friend round to the other side of the room. A second easel was standing back to back with the first, also holding a canvas, but this uncovered. Richard set himself to look at it.

> It was of a part of London after a raid—he thought, of the City proper, for a shape on the right reminded him dimly of St. Paul's. At the back were a few houses, but the rest of the painting was of a wide stretch of desolation. The time was late dawn; the sky was clear; the light came, it seemed at first, from the yet unrisen sun behind the single group of houses. The light was the most outstanding thing in the painting; presently, as Richard looked, it seemed to stand out from the painting, and almost to dominate the room itself. At least it so governed the painting that all other details and elements were contained within it. They floated in that imaginary light as the earth does in the sun's. The colours were so heightened that they were almost at odds. Richard saw again what the critics meant when they said that Jonathan Drayton's paintings "were shrill" or "shrieked", but he saw also that what prevented this was a certain massiveness. The usual slight distinction between shape and hue seemed wholly to have vanished. Colour was more intensely image than it can usually manage to be, even in that art. A beam of wood painted amber was more than that; it was light which had become amber in order to become wood. All that massiveness of colour was led, by delicate gradations almost like the vibrations of light itself, towards the hidden sun; the eye encountered the gradations in their outward passage and moved inwards towards their source. It was then that the style of the painting came fully into its own. The spectator became convinced that the source, of that light was not only in that hidden sun; as, localized, it certainly was. "Here lies the east; does not the day break here?" The day did, but the light did not. The eye, nearing that particular day, realized that it was leaving the whole fullness of the light behind. It was everywhere in the painting—concealed in houses and in their projected shadows, lying in ambush in the cathedral, opening in the rubble, vivid in the vividness of the sky. It would everywhere have burst through, had it not chosen rather to be shaped into forms, and to restrain and change its greatness in the colours of those lesser limits. It was universal, and lived.

Or you could write an email? I don't see how that works at all, you'd still be sitting in silence for minutes while the response loops around.
I think it's precisely because he sees himself as more of a craftsman that creates entertainment rather than an artist who is trying to express the nuance of the human condition. He is secure in his work and purpose and understands just what he is doing.

I believe it's important to make distinct the difference between "art" and "entertainment". Art is inward looking and for the individual to experience uniquely theirs, whereas entertainment is for the masses and outwardly.
Yes, many union problems are essentially problems of scale. However, a subset is unique to public sector unions. I feel like I addressed this distinction multiple times. Note, I'm not making a case that public unions are any more corrupt than private ones, just that they play by a different set of rules.

Consider a large corporation goes on strike, like a Boeing or Raytheon or a public utility, that is considered "essential" to public safety or national security. If the union isn't at least somewhat reasonable, it will cause the business to risk going under, or the govt to nationalize its property, or them to succumb to competition. It's a form of mutually assured destruction. This is exactly what happened to the automotive unions after the 2008 financial crises. They re-negotiated existing contracts to ensure the viability of the business. Many hourly rates were slashed to less than half of what they were just a year prior.

Contrast that to something like a police union. What is the backstop to prevent union demands from getting unreasonable? Essentially very little. We can't just stop having a police force. There's no competition to go hire the next contract with better terms. If the union knows they can't go under, their demands can get more extreme. Plus, they work with a captured market. A private business has to essentially woo customers to remain viable, public organizations have established clientele that have no other options and limited oversight compared to regulated monopolies in the private sector. It's also already been said multiple times that police are the very mechanism often used to break up strikes, so who prevents an illegal police strike? They are also well equipped so the threat of sanctioned violence by something like the national guard is not a good option. None of these issues are generalizable to private organizations of large scale. There's just less mitigation to keep public unions reasonable because public services are different in their application.
Furthermore, looking at almost 26k GitHub stars for this repository, if only about 14% of the people who this resource is useful for, sponsored me with a one time amount of a single Euro, I could order a new machine that probably lasted me another eight years. It's not something I'd expect, nor think I should. It's entirely my issue.

It's unseemly that people have to beg like this. I would be happy to pay a small annual Github subscription if it were distributed back to repo maintainers. Same thing with all the 'buy me a coffee' tags and now the 'buy me a slice of pizza' ones. Instead of funding useful bodies of work with meaningful micro-grants you have projects competing to provide people with better cups to rattle.
My guess would be people who primarily write, not speak, English. 'h' is a consonant after all, the fact that its like that here may not be apparent to people who write more than they speak English (as a second/third language)
Essentially yes, with a single SQLite instance, you have a small window of downtime on every deploy. But depending on your setup, that window could be very small, and unnoticeable if you have something in front that just delays incoming requests (like fly.io does with a load balancer in front of that single instance).

And yes, LiteFS just selects a new leader and does a rolling deploy (or whatever else you want).
Why would a property developer finish a new build with hardwood, stone, brass, etc when they can double their volume and return by building towers of cheaply-clad flammable doggy crates?

It's a misallocation of incentives for what gets built these days.
