Apparently they've learned nothing from Meta's mistakes.

They're for gaming and escape. Not for work, not for communication.

This could be a huge market, but Apple and Meta don't seem to understand that at the highest levels.
Couple years ago I bought a Thinkpad, back when everything came with Win10 but you could still do the Win7 downgrade. I tried to do just that, but everything went sideways in roughly the same ways as your post, just with different details.

After two weeks and getting Lenovo to physically FedEx me some Win7 recovery media and I STILL couldn't get the license key to take, I threw up my hands and decided to see if 2017 might truly be the year of the Linux desktop.

I threw Ubuntu on it and everything was just flawless. From the first boot. Set up full-disk encryption with no hassles at all, pointed a backup target at my NAS, found a few Gnome tweaks to correct little UI misfeatures like the alt-tab delay, and went on about my day.

As a lifelong DOS/Windows user up to that point, but now a 6-year Linux convert, I wonder why I waited so long. At some point Ubuntu hosed itself in a dist-upgrade so I switched to Pop!OS, which took less than an hour and I restored my last backup and everything just works again. It's bizarre that anything could be so trouble-free. Case-sensitive filesystems still annoy me but I'm slowly memorizing all the weird capitalized directories and stuff, a small price to pay.

> Where do the standards say it ought to work?

The wording has not changed since the 2016 version of the DOM Parsing and Serialization standard [0]:

> On setting, the following steps must be run: 1. Let parent be the context object's parent. [...] 4. If parent is a DocumentFragment, let parent be a new Element with

> - body as its local name,

> - The HTML namespace as its namespace, and

> - The context object's node document as its node document.

But Blink instead throws a DOMException with name "NoModificationAllowedError" and message "Failed to set the 'outerHTML' property on 'Element': This element's parent is of type '#document-fragment', which is not an element node." This was filed as a Chromium bug last December and assigned a week later [1].

Wasn't there also something about Alibaba specifically working on a money lending scheme which circumvented banking regulations and which regulators feared would create vast amounts of unsecured debt and destabilize the economy?
Are JSON fields "crazy"? That seems like a myth that should be dispelled. To me, "crazy" is making your `data` field unstructured text.
Had a similar experience with my kobo, but I was able to forward the usb port to a windows 10 virtual machine (using qemu kvm with the help of virt-manager). It might work for you too.

Added bonus: you could snapshot the vm and always have a working copy around.

What makes you think copy and pasting responses from an LLM is the actual job being posted?
The problem with bazel here is that every project, no matter how small, ends up needing some beefy WORKSPACE and bazelrc, especially when you start bringing in this party dependencies.

How do we streamline this? bzlmod and bcr are steps in this direction, but it still seems far away to me.
Again, the fact that he was actually just out of sight IS what makes this situation fine. Without this fact, putting the supervision responsibility of road safety of a 3-year-old solely on a 5 and 7-year-old is unfair to them all. But that isn't what happened, he was literally there. I think all parties seem reasonable in the scenario.

Supervision is not an all-or-nothing thing. When someone calls the cops on your 10 year-old climbing a tree in your front yard or the neighborhood woods (let alone in your fenced-in back yard), that is ridiculous. But, there is a problem when you equivocate a toddler on a public road and a grade-schooler playing outside. One is able to stumble into problems and solve them while building confidence--the other just learned it's name and how to put on their shoes and pedal the bike.

Like, all 3-year-olds are different, perhaps his was closer to 4. Perhaps they were developmentally way ahead of their peers. Perhaps this was the most rural quiet and safe road ever. But without knowing that extra stuff, I think it is reasonable to voice your concern after finding a 3 year old on a road without real supervision.
There's quite a lot of online groups you can get involved in. My friend joined a DnD campaign on startplaying.games, for instance.

From our first analysis, applying the thrust through the container seems doable; the containers are secured to each-other and the ship via mechanical "twistlocks", which are designed to handle not just ship loads, but also trucking loads (such as a 2g hard braking from a semi). The roll loads are actually the more difficult design challenge.

Regarding kites, we looked at those quite a bit. The challenge with those is that kites tend to be best for when the wind is coming from behind you or crosswind. For a container ship traveling at high speed, the kites would act more as a parachute and slow you down (even if you were extracting energy from them).
What about the medical costs from getting hit, or if you get hit again and are injured to the point where you are disabled for some time?

I have a motorcycle and I don’t feel comfortable driving to/through the city because of the number of times I’ve been run off the road, almost hit, or getting rammed while stopped at a traffic light in an SUV.

Arguably I'm not quite done mulling over this, but I've started to wonder if the insistence that work-from-home isn't working, isn't an indication of failed management.

While software developers and similar roles have rather easily adapted to working from home, some managers haven't been able to keep up. I suspect this is because many of them weren't great manager to begin with. They struggle to do project planing, follow ups on current tasks and keeping the job queues full. Forcing people back into the office is an attempt to revert to an environment that hides poor management skills, even if it's worse for everyone else.

The success of "work from home" seems to me to be very much dependent on the management and culture of a company and Facebook may simply not have a management layer that can deal with developers not being at the office or working at odd hours.
UE4 onwards has this interesting mechanism where it slows movement as you move through a zone that triggers asset loading. It removes loading screens by imposing a movement speed penalty to give it time to pre-load assets.

I don't think its a question of intelligence. you have to spend some time listening to messaien and late romantic/contemporary music in general before you start to 'learn the language'. I think its worth the minor effort if you think there is nothing new under the sun, but it all your choice :)

The ARM chips had me seriously considering a mac for the first time in years. I was seriously thinking about an M2 MBA or 13" MBP - but the price to get either of those (or really any Mac) outfitted with a decent amount of RAM is obscene.

So, I just picked up a refurb 13" XPS with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB SSD from the Dell Outlet for under a thousand bucks and slapped Ubuntu on it. A similarly appointed MBP 13 would have been over double the cost.
Wow...I don't even have any words really. So I'll just say THANK YOU! I will need to read that a coupe more times. But my first question is who are you and how do you know all this and how can I contact you?

Why would I choose the inferior product?
I'm trying not to optimize this too much. It’s unclear if I really need something in the future given that we have something like ChatGPT already. Also I don’t want to be an information hoarder.

In short, if something doesn’t work, I just manually paste a snippet.

The PDF doesn’t need to look nice. It’s more that I can get an impression of how the website looked.
Hmm I don't follow. Governments and corporations are organizations of people. Just because people move between them doesn't mean they aren't different.

The origin, abilities, aims, and accountability are different.

> elementary and high school are the same its just different people moving between them competing for status.

This doesn't seem persuasive to me. Describing what some people do while in an organization doesn't define the organization.

Why not include universities in that list?

Governments exists to manage violence and through law. Corporations exist because they outcompete individuals for subsistence.
This is the other big reason people move to bustling cities: the social dimension. It's not just about jobs.
I'm sure people said the same thing about compilers. And then interpreters. Even today people complain about interpreted languages being too slow and not requiring people to understand "enough" of what's actually happening.

Turns out that really doesn't matter. I think your argument is incredibly weak; the fact that some people don't use these tools effectively doesn't mean that nobody can. Whoever figures this stuff out is going to win, that's just how it works.

That is to say, there will always be a niche for people who refuse to move up the chain of abstraction: they're actually incredibly necessary. However, as low-level foundations improve, the possibilities enabled higher up the chain grow at an exponentially-higher rate, and so that's where most of the work is needed. Career-wise it might be better to avoid AI if that's what you want to do, but as a business I can't see a dogmatic stance against these tools being anything but an own goal.

The thing they're all missing is volume. I bought my Tesla in December, because my old car was dying and I was ready to get an EV. I drove an hour and a half away to test drive a Bolt, a VW dealership near me had a 2021 id.4 to test drive, and that was all I could find (other than the Tesla, which was a snap to test drive both a 3 and a Y). I had wanted an Ioniq 5 but all the dealerships around me were marking them up at least $5k over MSRP, and I couldn't find one to test drive.

I think the competitors are getting pretty good, but Tesla still sells an order of magnitude more than them in the US, and so it will be a couple years of ramping before they're really "dunking" on Tesla. At least, around here in the midwest where I live. You can probably comparison shop a lot more easily in SF or something.
Huh, I knew there had been actual deaths but not that it was hand to hand combat…
The standard says that if the parent node is a DocumentFragment, then a temporary Element must be created to act as the context element for fragment parsing [0].

Yup, at most. They're still selling my 2019 Mac Pro configured the way I have it (12 core, 192GB, 8TB, W5700X 16GB) for $13,000, just as it was in 2019...

... and if I go to trade it in, they'll give me $850 for it ...
It was forced by the pandemic. Workers had to stay home, as required by governments, and companies had no choice but to adapt. In that time workers gained a right that only a small number of them could convince employers to give them before. It’s got to the point where a large number of people would quit their job rather than work in an office and now that that’s a risky proposition, companies can take the opportunity to remove that right from workers with less risk they’ll quit.
Lots of Five Cent Army here on HN.
High speed internet has largely rendered local storage obsolete for most users.

However, Apple’s base model is frankly silly. A solid 2TB NVME drive is only 150$, slapping the equivalent of 20$ worth of storage on a 1,500$ laptop is crazy.

Let me guess: you were born in the 70s to 80s, and the 80s/90s were a formative time for you? That is because you don't remember all the shit that played in whatever golden time period you're imagining. You only remember the hits. You're not accurately remembering the broad distribution of what was on the radio and in theaters in the past, which also contained a lot of crap that you likely never would have wasted your money on. Terrible movies got dumped to TV specials or direct-to-video (today they get dumped to streaming platforms), so even if we filter to what was released in theaters, we're missing a lot of crap.

But how about we look at the top grossing films of 1983 [1], 30 years ago? Some of these hold up and are the classics you remember, like #1 Star Wars Return of the Jedi (still a franchise though), #2 Terms of Endearment, #4 Trading Places, #5 WarGames, #10 Risky Business, #11 National Lampoon's Vacation, #13 The Big Chill, #16 Scarface. Bonafide classics, no question there.

But go even a little down the list and you get middling sequels and formulaic franchise films: #6 Octopussy (formulaic Bond film, which was the Marvel of its time), #7 Sudden Impact (Dirty Harry sequel, not great), #8 Staying Alive (Saturday Night Fever sequel, not great), #12 Superman III (one of the worst Superman films of all time, but ahead of Superman IV), #14 Never Say Never Again (another Bond film, better than Octopussy, but still two in one year), #15 Jaws 3-D (one of the worst action films of all time), #20 Psycho II (another meh sequel).

And these are the top 20 movies ranked on how many people paid to see them in the theaters. There are hundreds of others that were regularly shown in theaters that I'm sure you can't recall. Some are classics now (Videodrome, Monty Python's Meaning of Life), but most are not.

Couldn't have explained better! Just because some people are well accustomed to working in bash files and terminal, they assume it's a child's play for everyone. There are multiple types of shells alone with each having different syntaxes for something as simple as redirecting error/output to a file. First you'd have to explain to them what is a shell, before telling them why the solution given on Stack Overflow doesn't work for them.

That's the problem. You need to discharge the battery once in a while or it builds up gas and expands. I had a 2015 that was perfect until I stopped going anywhere in March 2020. So I basically didn't unplug it for a year, and then the battery got explodey.

So now that I still work at home, I make sure to unplug my laptop once in a while just to drain it down a bit.

Edit: Not sure why I'm getting downvoted here. You still need to unplug your older Macs that don't have the software and firmware updates that do this automatically now.

I'm simply pointing out why OP had battery problems.

I've just been using Python "pseudocode" with good success. It's great for getting structured output from GPT3. Works less well with chat-fine tuned models, hopefully openai releases a simple instruct-tuned GPT4 instead of chat-tuned.

For instance, this prompt:

best_artists = search(year=2014, genre="hip-hop")
assert(len(best_artists) == 10)
for i, artist in enumerate(best_artists):
print(f"{i}. {artist}")

Stdout:

Yields this output:

0. Kendrick Lamar
1. Drake
2. J. Cole
3. Logic
4. Childish Gambino
5. Joey Bada$$
6. Chance the Rapper
7. Schoolboy Q
8. Vince Staples
9. Run the Jewels

Note how the `assert` is used to constrain the output. The `search` method is not defined but what it does is obvious so the LLM hallucinates its output.
Well I think everyone outside of the socially anxious would agree that face to face conversation conversation is preferable to telephone calls and video chat. That doesn’t change the fact that the iPhone is probably the most successful product of all time. I’m a remote work advocate, but just because Apple themselves don’t prefer remote work doesn’t mean they can’t put out a product that aids in it. Besides, I’m not convinced that remote work is necessarily what they’re talking about here. You could have a bunch of architects in a meeting together discussing a blueprint, you could have a bunch of medical students in a university hospital seeing a surgery through the eyes of a surgeon rather than from the viewing area, there’s a lot of decent use cases outside of coding for a good headset if it’s done right. Whether it has enough appeal to cross over into the mainstream or not is another matter. Just because Zuckerberg dropped the ball with his dystopian metaverse doesn’t necessarily mean every other company will.
And now with MS integrating GPT into office and the whole OS via Edge, old PCs will become a lot more useful.

Even with just a terminal, if you can talk to a chat agent, then you can practically do anything from a basic computer.

All we need now is an Internet connection with a terminal.

Is someone building “ChatOS”?

A chat-based OS, where everything is done via chat?
I bought a $900 Asus Zenbook 9 years ago and it's still going strong as good as it was the day I bought it.

The problem with these kinds of anecdotes is they lack a control. If you compared an identically priced PC laptop you might find that there's almost no difference. You're just making an assumption without any actual contrasting data to back it up.
Most jobs are worthless and shouldn't be artificially preserved. The end game of AI is just doing nothing and still having a roof and food. It's not like we're going to have human manual labor picking apples. At which point all of these people who sold out and made their what would otherwise be an intellectual job into something profitable, will have no value.
