I'm not going to wade into this flamewar but I will say one thing. Apple is what it says on the tin. It's a curated garden that mostly just works. At a certain point in your life and your career you don't have weekends to spare on side projects and, especially in the tools that you use the most to interact with the Internet (phone, laptop) you want it to work the first time. I've flirted with Linux and for what it is, it's great, but I'm mostly done with hunting down drivers not working. Apple gives me my time back.

I think you'd have to be willing to be extremely enthusiastic dealing with all the shortcomings of the experimental support currently. Maybe older MacBooks are somewhat supported, but the ARM (Asahi Linux) is alpha right now, and a lot of stuff simply isn't implemented.

There's also some individual differences, i.e. from what I've heard you won't ever be able to run something like the Xen Hypervisor as Apple didn't fully implement the Arm spec s.t. some opcodes are missing.
Have you checked out Symbolics.jl? It's a lot like SymPy.jl but with all the niceness of a implementation in native Julia instead of a python binding.
Can you explain your objections? I don’t really understand this comment.
This is the best answer I've had so far, thanks! And even better that book is available on Kindle Unlimited, thanks for the recommendation.

> You could also make an argument for rum is native to Britain given it was likely in invented in Barbados, or another British sugar island as a direct result of colonization.

That does make sense in fact and I think you've proven me wrong - technically at least - which is great, because my rum connoisseur friends did not propose that argument and I can tease them about it next time we hang out :)
I’m not gonna go through and compare the wording, but the difference is that one set is enforceable and the other isn’t.
I've learned most of this stuff at VUSEC.

VUSEC: learn about systems security!

In your own time figure out:

- git

- vim (you wanna be cool right? Btw, use vimtutor in the commandline ;-) )

- C (okay okay, it was a prerequisite, I didn't have it, haha, so learned some basic C in a week to do the assignments. I knew Java only at that point)

- ssh

- Many other things
Not really. It does not matter what other states do as long ad it is not submission like from Belarus goverment. Ukraine invasion was not about Nazi and that talking point was abandoned long time ago.

And it had zero to do with Russian speaking Ukrainians or Russian minority too.
> where money is to be stole

I think the big one is at the large scale: government reducing it's debt burden by devaluing the currency that is used to repay their creditors.

But even on the small scale it seems like they win:

Let's say you have 100k in a HYSA that yields 5%. And the inflation rate is 10%. Not too far from current numbers.

After 1 year, your real (inflation-adjusted) return is -5%, so you've lost 5k of spending power. But then, at tax time, you have to write a check to the govt to pay taxes on your 5k "gain".

The exercise part is possible in theory, but in practise not many people have lives in which they can do 4000 kcal of exercise daily, six days a week. 4000 kcal takes a long time. I have heard of a guy who became a security guard and walked around a town for 10 hours each night. Exercise took him from "severely obese" to just above "normal" BMI over the course of 18 months or so.

The diet part is also possible in theory, but many people's family and social environments practically require them to eat muffins, cakes, sweet desserts, and other micronutrient-poor dishes. Refusal to take part gets them ostracized.
How do you know that? There are thousands upon thousands of books that haven't been digitized.
RoTT is about a compiler with two properties. 1. It produces backdoored programs. 2. It propagates when compiling compilers.

The exploit in the article only has the first of those.

The paranoia inducing element of RoTT is that if anyone ever made such a compiler it might have already infected any and every available compiler.
Your objections can be split in three parts.

First, "this is not for pilots", it probably can be.

Second, the layout/design is not helpful, seems to be mostly nit picking (which is good).

Third, the data is wrong.

The data can be corrected on http://osm.org by anyone, so that means your first objection is true. The design and layout can of course be corrected over time, depending on how many people care about mapping/visualizing them. The question is can you land an airplane with this map, this will be tested in flight sims that will use the same data.

So I do not know the goal of this map, but I have entered data about airports in to Openstreetmap and I most certainly did not do it for pilots. This was ten years ago I see that the amount of data has grown incredibly, So there must be people that care about it. That makes me believe that all your objections will be solved. Except the first one I listed since we can't have an fully loaded passenger plane land based upon my data.
Thanks a lot. Maybe I'm starting to see what you are talking about. I have setup a working (?) lazyvim. Let's see where it goes. Some frustrations had to be overcome, most of them turning off unwanted functionality like autopairing parantheses, for example.. The custom notifications/popups also had to be disabled for now since they have some problems (cursor vanishes in light terminal? Important command outputs are only visible for a few seconds?).
You've conflated two different issues. The ECHR has ruled (and I think they're right) that Russia is in control of the region.

That tells us nothing about whether the people of the region want to be part of Russia.

For that, we have to look to polls, like the one I cited, which tell us that the people living in the region do support Russia.

Which isn't that surprising, considering that the elected President they supported was driven out of office by a revolution. That kind of thing would make anyone question their democracy. If you must compare it to Jan 6th, it's as if the Jan 6th riots had lasted for weeks and at the end, the President preferred by the rioters took over.
First is common sense, computer viruses is a so common knowledge thing that scares many people, even my parents who are dummy on technology fears them and avoid suspicous sites and malwares from unknown sources, same thing carries for apps (ie. don't install from second sources)

Second is even if an android version lagging behing on security features from later versions, play store enforce enough harsh policies on app submissions requiring access to external data and collect user data, that you can trust most of it. Sure some apps can slip under their radar but play store bots can eventually catch up to them.
> Who's battery lasts > 6-7 years?

I think the relevant question is whose phone lasts 6-7 years? Because you might well replace the battery a couple times over the life of the phone and that's fine.

Anyway I just got a whole new iphone 8+ out of a failed battery replacement and it was showing all kinds of OS and application glitches, just as the moto G I had before it did too. The flash and DRAM doesn't last forever, the practical lifespan of the handset itself is about 3 years for complete stability, 4 years for moderate glitchiness, and 5 years for complete unusability, same pattern across both phones.

But yes, this means I will be using a 2017 phone for another 4 years, so the software lifespan probably needs to be close to a decade, and Android's lifespan is absurdly far from that level.
I think you’re misunderstanding the Android bootloader model. All the Android phones I saw when researching one to buy came with locked bootloaders, even the easily-unlocked Google Pixel series. So it’s not even a question whether the bootloader will arrive unlocked. What differentiates models is whether “there’s a way to unlock it” – plenty of models don’t support any such way. (I didn’t consider some classes of Android phones in my research of which to buy, so this could be a faulty generalization.)

The parent comments weren’t specific about whether this phone’s bootloader can be unlocked, but when they talk about this phone’s locked bootloader, I think unlockability is the issue they are really talking about.

I got the Nokia G-100 about a month ago for less than 200 USD and it worked fine out of the box. In fact I would say it worked better out of the box then my partner’s iphone mini. My nokia has a headphone jack, it came with a charger with the correct ports etc. My partner on the other hand had to immediately purchase all the appropriate dongles and chords to fit the proprietary ports.

Are you talking about public transit connections to the university? That’s a valid, but general complaint about American mass transit and car culture.

> but I literally do run X without a compositor

The price is tearing. Which may not be too noticeable at 1920@60fps, but playing a video on a bigger screen at higher refresh rate will very very seriously tear. It is not an accident that every other OS is compositor-only.

Only the first two. You can allow a third-party program to control your windows’ state via any IPC mechanism you choose.

In Russian stove there's usually a "throttle" - a metal sheet which may be inserted into the exhaust to completely block loss of heat via air sucking. Obviously you must ensure that fire is no longer burning before closing it.
Well you need both.. What does it do and why. And then how. The how needs to be somewhere if it's not something super standard, and even then I think it's best to explain. Because things are simply not obvious.
Adversarial attacks are inference-time, backdoors are training time. This paper isn't the first to propose the idea of backdooring DNNs (I believe our paper [1], concurrently with a couple others [2,3], did that). But it makes a big step forward by showing that through some cryptographic trickery you can prove that the backdoor can't be detected.

I'd tried to do back of the the envelope calcs for that sort of thing.

Resistive heat has the property that efficiency doesn't change with temperature. So you can heat a small amount of bricks to oven temp with no loss. But heat pump efficiency is very dependent.

So yeah in theory you could use a heat pump to heat a heat reservoir. Where I get stuck is detailed calcs are needed to suss out the economics. That people don't tend to do this says the economics aren't strongly in favor.
See my comments elsewhere but this is handset damage (flash and DRAM wear and battery performance leading to processor throttling) and would go away if you had your handset replaced with another 7. It's not the hardware spec that's the problem, it's your particular unit.
The "Technical debt" in my career was going to a small university no one has heard of for my CS degree, then trying to get my start in a very competitive city with a much larger university feeding into a lot of the Junior positions, where the housing was expensive and the salaries were low.

I mostly fixed it by moving to a much different city, applying to jobs outside my comfort zone there, landing a good position at a recognizable company name, and building from there.

I changed jobs 3 times in 5 years and doubled my salary.

My ongoing "technical debt" is that I am extremely abrasive towards authority, so I don't get along with executive types. I also tend to think they aren't as valuable as their salaries would suggest. It's something I will have to get over or it will place a permanent ceiling over how much I can grow in my career.

Oh please. Get a grip.

I’ve honestly got no idea what things are like in this space post-ARM-transition. I don’t really care, either. Historically though, there have been enough people claiming that the hardware quality of a MacBook is so good that it’s worth buying one just to run Linux on it, for it to be considered a ‘serious option’.

Are you sure that “promote, justify, and defend their purchase decisions” isn’t just code for “liking something that I don’t like”?

The undertones of this mentality are so gross and elitist.
Thanks for pointing that out. I'll fix it, but for now just have the .trane directory in the folder right above.

I guess you are right. The textbooks definitely have dependencies, but that seems to be the very problem that you have with them. Unfortunately, I think other than different curriculums for each way to approach the subject, this is beyond the current scope of Trane. I made this thinking of music at first, which has a more rigid way of approaching the subject that tends to work for a wide set of students. There's no person on earth that will be comfortable studying highly chromatic music without mastering harmonically easier material first.

No, drug approval takes time everywhere with a health care system. Heck I've been on methylphenidate for my ADHD for almost 15 years now, and it's still off-label when prescribed to an adult in the UK according to the NICE.
> The argument russia uses is "strategic buffer".

Yeah, it's weird, as Russia is huge.

If they really wanted a strategic buffer, they'd have created one using their own, existing territory.

eg Redraw their "unfriendly" border areas (say) 100km inwards, with that 100kms being a DMZ.

Russia is so big, people would be hard pressed to notice that on a map.

But Russia insists on pointing at other countries, saying "they're our strategic buffer" instead.

Then acts all surprised when those same countries are like "Well, fuck that!", and join together against this wannabe bully of their nations.

Russia's primary goal is to prevent an invasion by way of Europe.

The past invasions have been both painful and costly, and they must not be repeated. This goal is shared by the whole world, because Russia will not endure another siege of Stalingrad/St. Petersburg without bringing armageddon, nor can they be expected to do so.

I believe that, if the West delivers sufficient guarantees to Russia's territorial integrity and lifts sanctions, peace could be attained.

The guarantees would have to be very real.
That is the ultimate solution. But it’s extremely difficult to leapfrog any steps in the process of advancing an economy. It’s hard to take a shoemaker and turn them into a scientist. Usually it’s a better idea to give the shoemaker a good shot at turning their kids into scientists.

Eh, they're only doing this because they're required by EU mandate to have removable batteries in a few years right?

They get as much credit as Apple gets for switching to USB-C to ensure legal compliance with that EU mandate: zero.

Probably there was enough people tired of fanbois. Even half of this thread is full of them.

There's at least weekly Apple worship thread on HN, about laptop speakers, icons they did 20 years ago or other largerly irrelevant thing, that Apple apparently did kinda well. It's always full of people exclaiming that "Apple is so ahead of competition".

Really it's face-palm worthy.
As many folks mentioned already, the hate isn't new. Teams keep trying to use a one size fit all. Using SPAs for traditional websites was never a good idea, but people kept trying. SPAs tend to be pretty cheap and easy to build, especially if you cut corners, which makes them good to get an MVP out of the door quick (even if it's gonna suck). When trying to build "app like" products and given enough effort, they worked well and people made tons of money from them.

Now though, there's a couple of entities who benefit a lot ($$$) by telling people "Actually, this SPA thing sucks, look at OUR solution that will solve all your problems!". And they're VERY vocal about it (much more vocal than people who actually dislike SPAs).

A lot of trend setting in the tech industry is just from people ruffling feather or sowing confusion on purpose to then sell a solution. Right now we have a FEW of those, a bunch of people making money out of training you to solve the problem you didn't know you had, as well as a couple of Youtube "influencers" making money from the confusion.
Apple works great if you use it to do the 6 things it supports natively and that's it.

If you want to go outside the walled garden of apple, even windows is better. Old software, incompatible software, weird software? Nope. USB->rs232? Good luck finding that kext, but it just works on linux, and the cd in the box has the windows drivers. Some weird vpn setup? Good luck. Need a non standard hotspot setup with wpa enterprise? Good luck.

So yes... if you just need a browser, sure,.... if you need anything more, as many people here do, then macs might not be the best or most flexible choice.
Apple has giving up on having consistently non-blurry fractional scaling, pushing apple users to buy monitors "recommended by Apple", even if they are from other vendors.

On Windows not all Apps do scale on a HiDPI display. You then have to fiddle in the program's launch options and hope it's not too blurry when scaled.

Wayland does only have blurriness with certain Xwayland embeddings.

It's not a solved problem.
