And Germans snickered when Trump said the same in 2018.

Don't remind me
Surely you must know people that just do-their-own-thing, rather than the fake aspirationals (often middle-class status seekers)?

I don’t think it is that difficult to tell the difference between the loving enthusiast (with say a gaming PC they built that looks like dreck using unpopular parts, with judicious use of expense), and the mere status chaser (with say a stupid expensive gaming PC with clichéd blingken lights, plus an enthusiasm for high-status parts and ranking behaviours). If engineers, find the true engineer types, rather than the wannabes?

I could imagine it is difficult in some suburbs that mostly have plastic people, but you said you are more worldly than that. There are poseurs everywhere, but there are definite patterns of behaviour that you can use to filter them out, regardless of their clique.
I didn't say anything about taking away freedom. I said - "get us to consent willingly to greater governance".

You believe the stories you are told, you trust the emissions testing, you trust the government to do something, the law-making process, the corrections to the bad acts on the part of corporations, etc. You've literally no idea whether any of that is true! I doubt you even think you are being gassed by cars.

But you probably support early scraping of functional cars, subsidising of electric cars (even though they are dirty to produce and not fit for purpose), artificially increasing the cost of travel (fuel taxes), food production, deliveries, etc, you support forcing cumbersome travel options on everyone (public transport accessible via tracking ids), decreasing parking, pedestrianising of areas, etc.

But these options are not ones you wanted either! You have simply been told they are good, you are saving the planet. You might not believe in religion, while you pay penance for your sinful nature.

In the past, towns and cities were engineered in order to provide access for cars - people then were told that was good, and believed it! It seems to me, that whatever government tells people is good, if they see it on a screen, they believe it! Even though they are actually poorer and have less options. Its amazing to me, that this is all it takes! To take ever more money from people, for less - you simply tell them on TV!

And I'm the one doing mental gymnastics! Do you actually notice the world at all? Do you verify any of your cherished beliefs? Has the water risen? Is it warmer? Was weather ever unchanging?
> That should be your responsibility mate.

This type of commentary online is contradictory and lazy.

- Parent puts in effort to manage their child's time (and or access).

WHY AREN'T YOU PARENTING?!

- Parent doesn't put in effort to manage their child's time (and or access).

WHY AREN'T YOU PARENTING?!

Plus when a parent really goes whole-hog on the whole protective thing they get criticized for being authoritarian and or not allowing their kid to make mistakes/grow into an adult.

The direct implication here is that a child should only have exactly as much time on technology as the parent has free time to sit behind them and look over their shoulder. Yet if you phased a parent doing that as a question from the child's point-of-view, it would get HEAVILY criticized (and perhaps not incorrectly either). In essence all parenting today exists in a super position (or "Schrödinger's Parenting" if you will) wherein everything they do is incorrect and or a complete contradiction.

Seemingly to comes from two groups:

- Those who have never had kids.

- Those who had kids before technology really existed like it does today.

These people don't really have anything valuable to offer the discussion.
The markup is in the RAM/storage upgrades. Your stuck with Apple's prices at time of purchase for the most part and if you need it fast then you have to go some way more expensive SKU to get it. Only the Mac Pro (which is already insanely expensive) and the Intel Mac Mini (where you can only upgrade the RAM) are user expandable. And who knows if the Apple Silicon Mac Pro will be.

The mistake is buying a $400 laptop. Although anecdotically I've known a lot more people whose MacBook has died than PC laptops.
I just want to know how to turn the damn “anti malware service executable off”. I’ve turned it off in settings, I’ve added various registry keys but that damn process still haunts me.
I've been using conventional commits for that, if there was equivalent of this that conformed to the CC standard then I would give it a try
A space elevator for our own moon would be far more interesting to me. It could be built with known materials.
By creating a platform that emulates Windows, otherwise no one would bother to target their device natively.

Those 2% market shared are filled with games that are developed on Windows, targeting Windows.

Meaning those game studios will keep giving Microsoft money, and letting Valve do the needful to work on their platform.
If I'm adding something weird and funky that requires a long explanation of context, it goes in a comment (or even an ADR). If I'm removing it, it goes in the commit message.

(Those are not the only situations, of course.)
I mean, if I'd written the software for them and it were my software being certified, I'd say two years would be an underestimate :P
You could look into LTSC, it's about as close to W7 as you can get in terms of user control (e.g. no forced updates) and still enjoy semi-recent Windows features like D3D12 ""Agile SDK"" (lol)
> If I don't my time might simply be wasted (eg on videogames, netflix, or even job applications).

So how many hours per week do you believe we should be allowed to waste whilst still being a valid member of society?
The advantage being that you could sort things to implement priorities and such? Did you use listen()/notify() at all?

ETA: seeing your list of missing features now, that all makes a lot of sense. In my mind the biggest advantage of SQS is that it glues together all the other AWS offerings, so you can go AWS -> Lambda for an instant job queue (with concurrency limits, etc. so you don't blow your hand off - perhaps undermining the simplicity argument). But everything you're saying makes sense if your job queue needs any degree of sophistication.
I just tried `I dreamt I was getting a tarot reading of the Hermit, the Wheel of Fortune and the Fool.`. Turns out, the Dream app is already an okay tarot reader!

There is a definite business opportunity there...
Elon Musk says Twitter will increase character limit on tweets up to 4000
Nice satire of this here: https://twitter.com/Plinz/status/1601025426297475072
I guess someone will refrain using Verse
The price difference between the two products is all over the place depending on the country. For example, in the U.S., ipad pro is quite a bit cheaper than MBP. However, opposite is true for Japan, even more so than UK.

UK

> 12.9" 256GB ipad pro = 1360 pounds

> 13" 256GB MBP = 1349 pounds

US

> 12.9" 256GB ipad pro = $1199

> 13" 256GB MBP = $1299

Japan

> 12.9" 256GB ipad pro = $188,800 yen

> 13" 256GB MBP = 178,800 yen

Germany

> 12.9" 256GB ipad pro = 1579 Euro

> 13" 256GB MBP = 1599 Euro
So, to solve such issue we can add noise? So, lets say I play 1 game, i let another people/bot to play another game using same account?
Thanks. I re-read them but the metaverse angle still doesn’t make much sense to me. I don’t think that’s super relevant to the PLT stuff though.
Yes, it can drive external monitors
Are you being serious? I can’t tell but I can’t imagine why you would be serious. People getting out of prison have a huge stigma from people thinking this way and it makes reintegrations much harder than it should be.

Anyway, most people are criminals just waiting to get caught. Most people speed, jay walk, go through red lights at least once in their life, unintentionally lie on tax forms, forget to declare things at customs, etc. You’re probably a criminal, the odds are not in your favor… so, if you are serious, you should take a look in the mirror.
I bought a Brother printer about a year back and the toner stopped working because Brother decided it was "empty" instead of allowing me to continue until it fades and I decide it's "empty". (In this case, the print quality was perfect until it was declared empty.)

So it seems Brother is not immune from giving into the temptation of turning into a terrible printer company. Hopefully they don't continue down that path.

(I can't remember which model I have and am away on travel, but I can update assuming anyone cares...)
For music production you should check out Bitwig. It's awesome and competitive with other mainstream DAWs.
I’ve never seen a program that would magically be better on a distributed architecture if it was written in a different language. Programs run on a single core because they have a single core’s worth of work to do. Autoparallelization, like autovectorization, doesn’t work.
Don't worry, a bunch of Microsoft VPs got promoted for showing that this would boost revenue (and, unless MS experiences a serious exodus due to this latest round of shenanigans, such increa$es will materialize).

So, yes, there certainly are MS folks who (unironically) think that they did a "great job" with this.
More cupholders, the ability to seat 3 carseats abreast, fabric rather than leather seats, better gas mileage, fits more easily in tight parking spots (and you care less if it gets dinged because you didn't pay $70K for it). Only thing the BMW really has on them is soundproofing (and probably acceleration & handling, but I don't care much about that).

And I care more about how reliable it is at > 10 years of ownership, not < 3 years (when nearly everything is reliable). My Honda Fit is coming up on 14 years old and runs like new.
Conserving Dürer’s Triumphal Arch: coming apart at the seams (2016)
I don't think you get to define what is a professional or not.

Many people e.g. musicians, photographers, editors, architects etc use the iPad Pro and by the popularity of their respective apps it clearly works well for them.
100%. I love this adaptation so much for this reason. The tone is so good.

Having read the book, the big thing I feel they didn’t really convey as strongly was the sophistication of Karla’s “clever knot”. I think that was glossed over a bit.

Granted it’s a pretty subtle thing to depict, even in a film as subtle as this.
I'd think the real interesting stuff would have been the transactional parts and the effects system. Unfortunately, these slides don't describe them; they just mention that they exist.
The same service that sends Ms every bin you run? You've got a lot of Spectres in that machine I'm afraid.
depends, if you are bisecting the commit messages are very helpful
A lot of Ukrainians I know seem to be speaking much more Ukrainian than they did a few years ago. People from Russian speaking towns.

There does seem to be a serious de-russification vibe, stronger than ever and definitely not just something foreigners are interested in.

I'll give just one small example that I'm reminded of... There's been a lot of drama about signs when you enter a town. Russians will capture a town, paint the sign with their flag, change spellings to replace і with и, etc. Ukrainians will recapture, repaint, and switch to their spelling... It's a thing.
I primarily use dark mode when I am in the dark or in a dimly lit room.
Having any light blasted right into my eyes hurts. And ruins my night vision. And also messes with my sleep.
This article seems to equate dark mode with white text on black background. I tend to see dark kodes more complex than that, specifically with yellow text on a dark background which is what I tend to prefer. Ive always liked darcula themes for coding because of the variety of contrasts are better for me.
The difference is the display.
I don't get what this comment is supposed to be.

For some of us these are our tools. I own the monitor you're awkwardly trying to lampoon: the Pro Display XDR.

It cost $5,000 and it's been with me through at least a million dollars in income at this point, so I'd say it's a bargain?

Apple makes hardware for people who understand that the cheapest item is not necessarily the best value.

Sure there might be extravagant extras at times like that stand, but Apple's budget iPhone is faster than $1000 Android flagships and will get updates for longer than half of them.

People who try to imply Apple is a bad value are usually just missing the forest for the trees.
Why? Would be a terrible product - try to work on an iPad keyboard for coding and you'll rapidly realise how much happier you were with an actual MacBook.

I mean, could you do it? Sure, but you'd be doing it for the sake of feeling like you could rather than it being optimal - then there's all the other cases of people that still want it to behave like iOS when in "Mac mode", but of course it can't, because the security model is different there and iOS devices don't run unsigned code.
Content and time limit are distinct issues. There is much to say about content but time limit is simple:

* there should be one

* it will make no sense to a child as something they enjoy and is available in unlimited quantity, will be taken away for no reason they understand

* It will come down to an argument from authority and one needs to be strong, emotionally intelligent and sensitive to make that work.
Which specific models are your units?
I just used your prompt with chatGPT and it gave me a spot on interpretation of a dream I had last year, much better than Nightcap.

Literally the top results for US smartphone ownership. You can do it.

> that those that make do with only phones would even want to purchase a tablet or laptop?

That's the whole point - they don't need / want one. But given the services that everyone needs are moving online, everyone needs some level of internet access. This effectively moves windows users to Linux/Android as discussed upthread.
I'm currently watching this. The score is fantastic.
(notice he still wore a suit while testifying to Congress though).

Don't like the guy, his company, his policies. And I tend to repect our elected officals more than most.

But the idea of showing up dressed in a t-shirt and jeans, and/or a hoodie, make me smile broadly.
At the very least we need to start demanding two things: falsifiability and reproducibility. We should stop calling "science" things that are unfalsifiable.
Worth noting I'm also red/green color blind, which might matter.
As an end user, I don't have a "make Cogent behave differently" button, but I do have an "enable IPv6" button.

And when turning that one off makes my internet work, and turning it on makes my internet not work, guess what.
I won't argue that it wasn't possible. But that link shows 20-40 books, and covers 3000 years of human culture. That's about one anonymous book per century. I think we need more anonymity than that. But I think the amount of anonymity we have now is disastrous to civil society.

Appreciate the link though. Thanks for engaging.
Maybe IE was better for a while. But for a long time it wasn't, and it wasn't allowed to stand by itself. That was the problem. It was the de facto standard, not by being good, but by being pushed via Windows.

I hope we can agree a text editor is different that a browser, word processor, or an IDE (at least nowadays). Nobody complains that Microsoft ships Nodepad or Paint, because they are the bare minimum and avoidable. Hell, they shipped Nodepad and Wordpad, and neither dented Word's market share.

Regarding 2, this is unbelievably naive. For such an important product, of course Microsoft would find a way to make it do "essential" OS tasks. Apple/iOS is obviously much worse in this regard. But for better or worse, iOS devices are a minority in the EU.
But kafka isn't a standard message queue, and therefore won't make onboarding easier except for the ones who already know it, which is not a significant majority, right?

Or at least we'll have to agree on the definition of standard here. For the equivalents of SQL, I'd say we have AMQP or MQTT, and kafka does not seem to support any (my goggling tells me it has its own protocol); deployment-wise, it doesn't seem easier to set up than, let's say, SQS; while used and supported in most common languages, most queue/job frameworks do not seem to support it OOTB (looked into ruby, python, php, javascript), so you'd have to write your own custom kafka handling code from scratch. So what would make it easier than just riding postgres?
In Cloud Native Diary, I weekly share my journey working with application development, platform engineering, and cloud native technologies.

This past week has been great! Excellent feedback from the readers of my book, various tasks on supply chain security (SLSA, Sigstore, SBOMs), refinement of image building (Buildpacks, kpack, Paketo), and work on platform engineering.
Tweets were originally restricted to 140 characters, but the limit was doubled to 280 for non-CJK languages in November 2017.

4000 characters would represent an increase by a factor of 14.286.
IIRC fonts specifically made for dyslexic people (e.g. OpenDyslexic) tend to be even better in that regard; if the goal is accessibility, one of those would be a better choice.
> back when balmer jumped up and down in a presentation yelling "developers, developers, developers", they were still good (despite balmer's terrible leadership).

My memory is probably faulty so corrections welcome, but wasn't "developers, developers, developers" a while before he became CEO?
You're welcome :)

Let's throw in The Importance of Being Earnest and HHGTTG (don't watch the movie). Maybe also some Vonnegut books? My favourite is Hocus Pocus.
... Metafilter, since pre-2000. [1]

Draw a skinny vertical rectangle - this will be the lifetime line of the class. Go to the properties panel on the bottom right of the window, select 'add anchor points' under the 'edit' dropdown. I find 5-8 on the left works well. Then edit the rectangle so that it's only pixel wide (drag, edit, etc.) and set the width to one and linetype dashed. Drag this entity to your toolbar for reuse now and in the future. Now you can attach arrows to any of the anchor points.
This is sadly the problem with most new languages.
Neat idea!

I do wish the home page listed a bunch of examples of dreams people have written and the resulting interpretations. I can't remember any recent dreams of my own, and I'd much rather browse a bunch that already exist.

Extra credit if people could upvote the funniest/craziest interpretations. :)
This looks like Erlang for game design.

I’ve done some game programming software and a large number of their decisions make sense in that environment. In particular, expression evaluation and a lack of booleans.
Useful suggestions. I think that the crack allows the weight to go onto the corner of the basket instead of being concentrated on the little bump/foot. So it might be a self-limiting problem where no action is needed (for a long time anyway). It would be interesting if the OP would take no action and then report back in 10 years to see what happened.
Does anyone good religiously play the same opening as black?

I don’t know chess but that sounds like a bad idea
"Pro" hardly means "professionals of all disciplines"... it's an odd point to build an argument around.

Even the original iPad could do things that the latest MacBook Pro cannot, that made it more useful for "professionals".
> maybe by their 40s-60s they have lost all interest in what 25yos

Its not about the fashion, its about looking put together. Its signaling that you care. Of course, there's the article which says that people who made it can stop signaling, so maybe that's you.
A steamOS fork?
And we almost used all of it then.
one more vote for mantine, such a fantastic, dynamic and constantly updated UI library
Sounds good, I’ll try again when I have time.

My latest attempt was back in Summer with Fedora 36 and a Logitech mouse. The default was one line at a time and I could not find a setting for it. (Apart from Firefox config but I need multiple browsers.)

Amusingly I even gave Chromebook (kind of a Linux) a proper try and with the scroll wheel it too scrolled a single line at a time.
Pleasant to see a fast website, that sadly does not happen a lot nowadays!
Thanks! I'm definitely taking notes.
Ghost in the shell is a classic.

Generally, I’m not sure Hollywood is up to the task however with all the nuance involved.

Most resort to a “the ai is a person” model, but that’s a dangerous idea because there is no evidence there any sentience — just the simulation of it. As humans become empathetic towards machines that have no internal experience, we will begin getting manipulated in some really scary ways over the next century
100% agree with using night shift/flux.

But having a monitor on in the dark, even if I use flux/night vision and even with low brightness physically hurts my eyes compared to just using dark mode on my apps.
> phased out due to backwash and contamination from the injection process. But that's a fixable problem. I think.

I'm kinda glad that they don't keep trying to fix it in production when a good enough alternative exists.

(Backwash = spreading disease from one patient to the next, and nasty stuff too like Hepatitis)
There is literally no valid reason to not support dual-boot on iPad.

Should macOS support full touch screen input? Naw, it’d be terrible.

Is an iPad with Magic Keyboard functionally equivalent to a MacBook? Categorically yes. In every single possible way.

The fact that they won’t let you run macOS on an iPad is obscene.
€¥£

Nowadays even other currencies are getting in on this business of having symbols.
The Data grid does support virtualization. You can see it in the menu of examples. It's only the default example that does not use it.
I am not sure how much I can say, because I used to work there. But I think it's OK to say many Google engineers don't particularly like Angular.
I think it makes more sense if you don't think of it as an angle but a motivation. We've all been attacked with stuff like "shopping lists but on the blockchain!" for so long. This isn't like that. It's that they're foreseeing a technical problem of a shitload of concurrency and extra pain of API changes (metaverse) and this is meant to help.
Walk through a hypethetical ticketing system migration with your tech lead. Assume all external links are broken, and see how expensive it becomes to answer questions about your own codebase. "why did we add special case X? is it still applicable? It interferes with new feature request Y, can we remove it to reduce total risk/cost of implementing Y?"

Integrating with another tool is fine, but not at the expense of your commit history!
the 13" macbook "pro" does not deserve the name. it is not pro in any sense, it should be called just macbook. better to compare to the 14"
No offense, but: does this actually relate the metaverse, or was that part added in so Epic Games would fund it? I don't see any first-class features that would be specific to that use case.
+1 - phenomenal vibe (and franchise). I would recommend Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence as well. Man, what a soundtrack.
Annoyingly LTSC costs around $300ish for the typical end user and has an inordinate amount of hoops just to buy it... makes it difficult to recommend to family so I curse them with Arch instead.
If a company does a buyback, shouldn't you still have a higher percent control if you dont sell any of your holdings, and the same % control if you do sell the dividend equivalent

Imagine a company has 100 shares and I own 10. If they company buys back 50, the stock price will double, and my % ownership goes up from 10 to 20%. I can sell down to 10%, the same control I had before to take my profits.

What am I missing here?
Twitter to Increase Tweet Character Limit to 4000, Elon Musk Says
