You made a conjecture that Apple abandoned Nvidia GPUs after issues with their earlier GPUs.

This is not a new argument. It’s been made by many people before. All of these people forget that Apple switched back for a while, long after those issues.

I’m simply pointing that your conjecture is at least on shaky ground.

You also claimed that the 2011 MBP broke the camel’s back. I point out that there was no 2011 MBP model with an Nvidia GPU, which angers you for some reason. I can only assume that you are confusing “2011 MBP model” with “2010 MBP model that I bought in 2011”, but who knows?
Do you know that each of these systems actually has a defined "owner"? It's part of the FISMA process and every so often these "owners" have to attest that certain security processes are in place and functioning and that no significant changes have been made without a full review... among many other things.

That "owner" is also a federal employee, not a contractor.

Thanks to our broken incentive systems for mass media, public trust in strangers and society is at record lows, and most people think violent crime has gone up when in reality it is at multi-decade record lows (the spike the last 24 months from covid notwithstanding).

Gun violence, for example, has been decreasing for decades. Watch the news and you'd think there's a "gun violence epidemic".

It's more profitable to peddle panic than the true framing of our reality.
Fully agreed. Suburbs are a disaster for families. I spend hours every day driving my kids to school and activities because there is no where they can safely walk (no sidewalks! high-speed car traffic!) and nothing within range of walking (infrequent bus service! low-density single-family dwellings!). My kids have no friends that they can interact with from our house.
The apparent inconsistency here is because you're misunderstanding what Wide Vine is:

The standard is Encrypted Media Extensions: https://www.w3.org/TR/encrypted-media/

That provides a standard way for web developers to say “Our audio/video files are encrypted. Use this decoder to decrypt the bytes for playback.”. Wide Vine is a popular Content Decryption Module used by EME but it's not the only one (Apple devices use FairPlay, Microsoft ships PlayReady) and the standards process required interoperability to be demonstrated.

Web SQL's standardization process halted precisely because nobody was interested in building a second implementation. If Web SQL had a second implementation, it could have been standardized just like EME was.

This piece gets the cart and the horse backwards. The localization of chip manufacturing isn't a "move into protectionism," it's simply a delayed response to the growing recognition that chips are more than just consumer goods. Energy and information have always been the things most valued by states, the only thing new is that solar panels and silicon dominance have moved from being a far fleck on the horizon to being seen as the inevitable future, if not already the present. You may as well call a state "protectionist" for attempting to achieve self-sufficiency in food and water. When barriers to access go from international policy to international supply, you adapt or die.

You then turn this into an absolute number for 1. But your absolute number of a $150/person/year would certainly approach 10% of my annual grocery spend... which lines up. Your absolute number would be frightening for a family of 4 making the median income.

The software doesn't, not for probably 70%+ of user base. The company needs to, because they need to have excuse for selling new versions.

How you excuse selling new version if users are using same old features and their use case doesn't need the new niche gadget new version is adding ?

(you don't and just sell app as SaaS or other subscription so everyone have to pay you monthly)

That's why I think we see the occasional "redesigns for sake of redesigns", designers need to excuse their employment so they make "new" ui, don't even test whether current users area actually faster doing stuff the "new" way, copy some recent design trend and now you have app with "new" UI everyone actually using for longer periods needs to waste time to relearn only to get to same (or worse) efficiency.

After three years ending ~EOY'19, I stopped tracking all these data. (It turns out combing every grocery store receipt and manually typing, categorizing, and calculating the data takes a lot of time.)

I can't say how my experience tracked or would have tracked inflation, but I can say that even before the pandemic, I did see wildly varying prices on things. Costco's large vanilla extract was once around $10 (though this was before my spreadsheet, so I don't have dates/exact prices). It was up to $35 in '18, then down to $30 a year later, and just a few days ago, I noticed it for a little over $20. But 25# of flour used to be around $6-7, and I bought a bunch the other day for ~$12. So some things up, others down.
> By your logic could I not claim that I drew that ensuing picture because I "wrote the prompt"?

I feel like "drawing" is a very specific action involving a writing utensil. I don't think I'd consider an image made in Adobe Illustrator to be "drawn", unless you were using a Wacom or similar.

But, yes, I'd say you could claim you "made" or "designed" the ensuing picture.

> Let's take it a step further, what happens if I take my prompt and hire an artist on fiverr? We go back-and-forth via email as I ask them to make various changes and then wind up with a final drawing. Am I still allowed to make the claim that I drew that picture?

No, because the artist on fiverr drew the picture.

Let's tweak this analogy a bit. Let's say you had a photograph of two people holding hands on a crowded beach. You want to retouch the photograph to remove the crowd, so the beach appears empty.

If you're lucky, you may be able to use Photoshop's Content Aware Fill to remove the crowd in less than a minute. In this case, you could absolutely claim that you retouched the photograph, even though Photoshop's algorithm did all of the work. A computer program can't be the creator of anything—the person using the program can.

If you're unlucky, Photoshop's Content Aware Fill will produce bad results, and you'll have to painstakingly go through the photo by hand. If you're short on time, you could hire a retoucher on Fiverr. In this scenario, however, you wouldn't be able to rightly claim that you retouched the photograph, because another human did that.

In every other case I can think of, the person using a tool gets to take credit for what they've made with the tool. Use an electronic screwdriver to fix a car? The screwdriver didn't fix the car, you did! Use a calculator to add two large numbers? The calculator didn't find the sum, you did.

None of this should change just because we have better tools. Schools may place additional limitations on students for certain assignments—math classes may restrict the use of calculators, art classes may restrict the use of drawing—but these limitations (1) should not always be in place for every assignment and thus (2) should be stated explicitly up-front.
I think people very much miss your first point. The powers-of-tens thing just isn't as common an operation as people seem to imagine. Scientists work in scientific notation directly on the base unit. There's no need to convert to megamoles or hectoliters or anything else. If you're stitching together fourteen 2-cm pieces of cloth, the total length is 28 cm, and nobody cares if it's also 280 mm and .28 m.

It's not that people never do these things. It's just that people talk about the English system as if converting from feet to miles is an onerous daily operation. If you're working in feet, you stay in feet.

I'd say that the more useful conversions in the metric system are when you're converting between different unit types, which aren't ten-based but are defined in convenient terms: a kilogram of water takes up 1 liter; a milliliter is 1 cm on a side. These are not-uncommon operations, and the factor-of-ten doesn't really matter.

People talk about the prefixes because they're easy to understand, and that's great. But prefix switching just isn't as important as it sounds.
> LED where controlling current is not feasible

Voltage-controlled current source is a pretty basic OpAmp circuit actually. There's also some tricks to turn some common voltage regulators into current controls. If your "information" is already encoded as current, you can somewhat current-mirror with a very basic BJT circuit (its not the best circuit, but if you don't care about accuracy its fine).

I'd say that current control is _more expensive_ than PWM though. PWM is just software or a 555 timer if you're oldschool, both are cheaper than OpAmps / Voltage Regulators.

Or maybe you mean, "not feasible for the costs people expect", which is probably true. PWM is just so much cheaper in practice.

> The hope was that economic integration would lead to less conflict, but the Russian invasion has proved that to be misguided.

Precisely, it was misguided.

This invasion did not, and will not, ever, benefit anyone. The decision of invasion was not based on a shared interest in peace and integration (!) but on an imperial domination vision.

So you can't blame the rules most countries follow in autonomy, peace and development interests (economic integration, international order), because one particular country decided (violently) not to.

The true enemy is this idea of local/regional exceptionalism, that justifies overreaching, that's growing (that Russia and China, among a few others, nurture carefully).

Yes and no. Cholesterol by itself ain't bad, in fact it is necessary to synthesize sex hormones and vitamin D, among other things.

High sugar in blood is bad. High sugar and high fat in the bloodstream is worse. Also, recent studies seem to show that cholesterol limits are arbitrary and don't mean much in a vacuum: there seem to be a correlation between high LDL levels and longevity—i.e. people that live longer tend to have higher levels of LDL than average recommendations. Go figure.

The important levels for health are: stable glucose/insulin system, lower triglycerides, lower trig/HDL ratio. Everything else is too noisy a signal, including just measuring dietary cholesterol.

One use of rare earths is for permanent magnet motors. Induction motors don't use permanent magnets, but they tend to be significantly less efficient.

Permanent magnets can also be made without rare earths, but I expect the result would be a physically larger/heavier and/or less powerful motor. So, it's a trade-off.

So once again, after the 1800s migrating to purely metric units everywhere became quite a challenge.

One could argue the switch to metric at least partially occurred in the US. My Nutrition Facts label here has grams and Calories. The medicine in my medicine cabinet is in grams and milliliters. My car has a 3L engine in it. I buy bottled beverages in 2L bottles. Over half the tools in my tool chest have measurements in millimeters, with most of the bolts and screws on my vehicles in millimeters. My backpack water bladder is 2L in size. My car's speedo does list the speed in km/h as well as mph. I use metric seconds, hertz, watts, amps, volts, etc.
> police scanners relay police knowledge about suspected crimes.

If I'm physically stabbed during the commission of a suspected crime, the material reality of my bleeding out is more relevant to me than whether or not a judge and jury will decide whether it was a crime or not.

> They have a big appetite for adding complexity to systems

For what its worth, one of the best engineers that I've ever worked with was incredible about not adding complexity to systems. I remember reading a lot of his code and always thinking "damn, that's really simple I bet I could've thought of that" – even though of course I hadn't. I think that these engineers need coaching from people who've gained a lot of experience building complex systems in complex organizations, not just complex code, and supporting them over many years.
> Why not just use AWS?

Physical goods vendors that sell through Amazon have found that once they sell something highly in demand, and profitable, Amazon uses all of their internal knowledge of the sales to create their own Amazon Basics version of the same good and then promotes that as a cheaper alternative, capturing most of the profit.

There is absolutely no reason not to believe that AWS will do the same thing and use their knowledge of the workloads and exact hardware requested to compete with you. The fact that they haven't done so yet isn't much evidence against them doing this in the future, since other parts of the same company already follow this approach.

>The "free market" thinking behind globalization was broken by China first.

You're right about PRC operating at PRC scale upsetting balance, but it's more inducting PRC into WTO gave US, historically and currently the worst breaker of free market due to domestic policies and sheer historic economic heft, a taste of being victimized by industrial policy from another large economy. Look up WTO DSS database, US is by far the worst WTO violator, and it's not even close. PRC adjusted of ascension time is closer to a medium sized country such as JP, i.e. relative to her trade volume, PRC is probably one of the top adherents of the WTO system and globalization in general, which makes sense since it has benefitted her so much. Finally there's a reason US is holding WTO dispute settlement body hostage, despite all other parties wanting appellate bodies to presume. Why it lost it's shit at WTO for siding with PRC on steel, and also against Canada and Mexico for NAFTA auto shenanigans, showing that currently, US domestic politics can't even cope with regionalism / friendshoring.

The TLDR is US logic is it no longer benefits from globalisms as much as others, particularly PRC, not that US doesn't still disproportionately benefit relative to most parties. But it would rather crush system for everyone else than enable PRC to keep reeping benefits of globalism which could long term displace US in variety of sectors. Which to be fair, might be in US interest.

E: I think this image really highlights the issue

https://i.imgur.com/YGx2fQy.jpg

PRC excess production capacity, it's ability to over supply after meeding domestic demand, hammers shares from incumbent industrial leaders. Part of it is industrial policy, but part of it is also PRC has the infra, talent in absurd quantities where over supply is almost inevitable. As PRC move up value chain, it's going to systemically take market share from US/western companies, but especially US who leads in many fields. Ergo, within US interest to stall that process (Tech sanctions / WTO drama), and try to fracture market into west/rest to maintain her racket.
