Do you claim that Soviets has actually moved that factory someplace else; or are you blaming that factory for continuing to be where it was built, producing stuff it was built to produce, likely paying wages to the same people who worked there from the start?

I know that Soviet Union has took e.g. Opel manufacturing line as reparations to form Moskvitch plant, but that's a different story.
sitting is natural.

Sitting on a chair, at a desk, staring at a screen, for 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, and then sitting in your car, and then sitting on your couch and never actually walking anywhere, isn't.

>Are older games somehow inferior?

No, but imagine getting DOOM in 1999 instead of 1993.

As I was saying, Mac gaming is basically leftovers. Which isn't terrible, but means the Vision Pro probably isn't very good for games (raw performance is fine, but devs won't build for it).
For me the main benefit of Obsidian is live-rendering editor + other handy features. Not having to look at two panes side-by-side (or having to parse the markdown format in my head) is such a QOL improvement.

Neovim might never be able to provide complete live-rendering. I don't blame it though, I wouldn't want terminals to become a rendering engine.

I said that both sides use propaganda, but one side is still (much) more believable.
I don't disagree with any of that, but it's interesting to consider how China might move to be a place where like in the UK (aspirationally at least) or in Germany or Scandanavia where people might enjoy freedom, healthcare, social care etc. Americans have their own freedoms. Do we see this slowly evolving in China too or is their regime a barrier to that?
As far as I know that’s pretty much what it is yes, a bunch of per-bank scraping systems, which get updated when the bank decides to switch things up.

IIRC Yodlee and Mint do (did?) about the same thing, for banks without a formal API.
As someone who used to have a shade of number color synesthesia, I don't think psychedelics would temporarily induce this in a person.

I was not advocating for "online slacktivism", I was merely giving my opinion of what rules or laws ought to be introduced to the effect, akin to copyright laws or open-source licenses (it is not "online activism" to give correct attribution according to the terms of a license). Shouldn't we be able to have this debate, or do you think that this decision-making should be confined to policymakers?
And how might this happen?
Exactly. Seeing people talk about "unlimited number of monitors in VR" is kind of frustrating. Monitors are containers for apps, portals into your digital desktop. You don't need monitors in VR. The monitor is a skeuomorphism! Just put app windows wherever, unbounded by monitors.
In that video they run the Linux experiments over a windows with a virtual machine. And I didn't see the model, but I bet you I can trains a model in a 4090 one 2x faster than in a old 1050 (because i can chose a model which bottle neck could be the data transfering not the actual computation).

I don't mean this personal, but I find it very very hard to deal with people like you in professional contexts. You focus on a 0.01% problem and make an absolute statement ("in every sense, password managers are a really bad, bad idea"), while completely ignoring that for everybody else, password managers (and even more so passkeys) will prevent real problems like their bank account being emptied.
Exactly. I know many people are upset that this will lead to patent soup resulting in less innovation or competition, which may very well be the case, but it shows also how much they haven’t just put high res glasses and a fast chip in a headset, but really tried to push the limits and leap past everyone with their first offering
A 15 year head start in a category they essentially defined plus an entire generation of executives, developers, and users doesn’t hurt either.

People complain about the “Nvidia tax” but the hardware is superior (untouchable at datacenter scale) and the “tax” turns into a dividend as soon as your (very expensive) team spends hour after hour (week after week) dealing with issues on other platforms compared to anything based on CUDA often being a Docker pull away with absolutely first class support on any ML framework.

Nvidia gets a lot of shade on HN and elsewhere but if you’ve spent any time in this field you completely understand why they have 80-90% market share of GPGPU. With Willow[0] and the Willow Inference Server[1] I'm often asked by users with no experience in the space why we don't target AMD, Coral TPUs (don't even get me started), etc. It's almost impossible to understand "why CUDA" unless you've fought these battles and spent time with "alternatives".

I’ve been active in the space for roughly half a decade and when I look back to my early days I’m amazed what a beginner like me was able to do because of CUDA. I still routinely am. What you’re able to actually accomplish with a $1000 Nvidia card and a few lines with transformers and/or a Docker container is incredible.

That said I am really looking forward to Apple stepping it up here - I’ve given up on AMD ever getting it together on GPGPU and Intel (with Arc) is even further behind. The space needs some real competition somewhere.

I picked the one that was donated on purpose by its creators though, and it's still making profits for the drug companies 100 years later. So why do we need patents, then?

From the page you linked:

> While these drugs are nearing the end of their patent term, the release of generics may be delayed due to litigation, acquisitions, or other exclusivities. As a result, some expected generics from previous years may still be in progress.

The point about the PBMs is that apparently, drugs have to be profitable or they are not made anymore. So even the generic companies need to position themselves in a way where their products are profitable, not only for them but for the insurance (or they will be dropped by formularies, and nobody's insurance will cover it.)

If patents are the only way for firms to protect the profitability of their drugs then we are doomed.

I picked one, sure, and you provided a list as counter-example. But the FDA also ships its own list... of off-patent approved drugs without an approved generic (and the current publication is a full 16 pages of drug names):

https://www.fda.gov/drugs/abbreviated-new-drug-application-a...

If the pharma companies can make a change to the formula so that the new formula of a drug is no longer covered by the original patent, they can get a new patent. I'm not an expert, but this is how I've understood the problem through reading about it. Yes, we have generics, but what doctor will prescribe "worse-pirin" when there's a better aspirin on the market now? What insurance company will cover it?

So, with 20 years of head start and a deep war chest, the companies you mentioned can all iterate, stop research on the previous drug, put up legal roadblocks in the way of their competition, put out a new drug which cannot be copied, while it costs a lot of money (and time) for competition to get their generic form of the drug tested and approved. It's not as automatic as the term "patent cliff" might suggest.

I'm just saying that the intent of patents in general is for innovations to enter the public domain after the period of exclusivity on the idea that enables their creators to enjoy profitability and a legally protected (temporary) monopoly on the idea. It seems like a fair question to ask, is that really what's happening? (What percent of time does it happen like that, what percent of time does it go down some other way?)
It feels like they had someone developing this service that hasn’t done this kind of thing before. Which is a pretty startupy thing to do. I’ve been there before, even with that exact footgun. Though a much smaller feature and testing revealed it.
Huh? You see their cloths and environment ..

Do you mean the avatar thingy?
Meh, this is the same thing they did with the Watch - the last "new thing" they released. The initial Apple Watch release was a pretty scatter gun approach. I mean, one of the headline features was "send your heartbeat to someone else".

They didn't really find a unique selling point, and they didn't really nail the implementation. Few versions later they refined the product and their messaging for it, and carved out a decent market for it. I actually think the original iPhone announcement was pretty close to this VR headset. It's only selling point was that it did everything nicer and better than the competition, and then it relentlessly iterated. iPhone was an easier sell though than expensive ski goggles - barrier is much lower with it.

It's clear(ish) they have some impressive tech in it, and are 'best in market'. I wouldn't be surprised if "Vision Pro" became a lot more of a compelling device in 5 years time. But right now it doesn't really seem to give me $3500 worth of benefit.
I've called this the snowball of success where you make small, disciplined actions that you call "success" (_setting an alarm_) than then "snowballs" into larger "successes" (_cleaning your room_). The opposite is true as well, in my experience: if you fail to make the _small_ actions, it will "snowball" into you not making the larger actions throughout the day.
Just use one note, or a wiki.
Correct, it is pointless.

It could have had a killer app: games. Most VR headsets suck in one way or another, Apple could make one that's actually nice to use.

Sadly, for some bizarre reason Apple still don't understand games. They even have pretty good GPUs now and they're still not making an Apple TV Pro to compete with the PS5.

Even just the Vision could've been announced along with a couple exclusives, but instead they have an offhand mention of Arcade.
Could you expand on your numbers a little?

Assuming 4k resolution per eye and 120 degree FoV would give 3840*2/120 = 64 ppd.

Using the link that you gave a 4k screen at 60cm is 73 ppd, so it is reasonably close.

Apple haven't said what the FoV is yet, so I'm guessing 120 based on the pi-max and an early impressions video from mkbd. The horizontal range isn't clear either: 23 megapixels would be about three 4k screens so it depends on the overlap region between the eyes.

It's not that far off 4k, and when sitting that close to a 28" 4k screen I find the pixels barely noticeable, i.e. I can see them if they are aliased but would not notice them when the colour gradient is smooth.
I hate this forced localization so much and its everywhere. The internet used to be a place where you would actually encounter stuff outside your locale.
>The other threads here seems to have missed just how "huge" a projects this is.

The other threads are busy jumping on the Hate Apple bandwagon, is what it is.

I have my own criticism of Apple's VR goggle, specifically that its form factor (albeit necessitated by today's technologies) drags the whole thing down in both the luxury/fashion and usage factors.

But if I put that aside, the technology and innovative thoughts crammed into that thing is potentially groundbreakingly amazing if the marketing is truthful and accurate. Even the $3500 price tag, which yes is bloody expensive, doesn't sound unreasonable given most other "cheaper" VR goggles still require a mothership costing about the same anyway.

I wish Apple success here, because the VR industry needs someone to come in and kickstart it back to something interesting and worthy of attention.

...I also admit I wouldn't mind seeing all the haters getting put out to dry for their noisy trouble, but maybe that's beside the point. :V
> seriously, measuring graphics cards in gigabytes is like measuring battery life in volts. it's the wrong unit.

Yes, but, if you need 48GB to run inference on a model, and you only have 24GB available, you don't get to enjoy the tflops difference.

If nVidia released somewhat lower-performance GPUs but with more VRAM, we could talk. But they're not stupid :)
That's right but the infamous 60% debt limit gave them some kind of scientific reasoning.

I want it "hackable", not because I myself is gonna do anything with it, but because I want that kind of innovation. Not the boring, polished, exec-vision thingy. Let other people invent new ways of doing stuff!

If you only can do Apple-approved-stuff on it, it will be boring. Let people release half-baked demos and cool tech. Don't force everything to go through their "review" process.

> being able to expand my workstation to an indefinite number of virtual monitors

Can it do that though? In the presentation, they only showed 1 virtual monitor replacing you laptop's screen - essentially just mirroring the screen once.

Everything else were what looked like native apps, so likely as restrictive as iPad apps, but in (virtual) space.
But the comparison is that it is "[arguably the most groundbreaking product ever] sticked to your eyes", and the property of groundbreakingness is not necessarily transitive.
This is like a mutation in a dungeon crawl game, that affects most of your stats negatively but gives you the ability to discover the effect of scrolls.
If I had to live in a VR context for any reason, this really feels like the product I’d want to have to do it in. But I can’t think of a reason why I’d have to.
Your laptop needn't be in front of you. You just need space for a keyboard and mouse/trackpad. That's "Stable Table" size, so works on the couch, dining table, kitchen bench, outside table, etc. Without relocating your external displays. Or your home office desk could be 12" deep rather than 2-3x that.

Thanks, you saved me some looking, I thought OpenBSD did something in this case and was going to poke around.

ReVanced – Continuing the Legacy of Vanced
Yes, in the same way as you can trivially restyle a Word document with a few clicks around the Style section of the ribbon - making it easy to adjust for the demands of your publisher, or to the new corporate color scheme.

That is, it's trivial if you carefully followed the best practices, did everything correctly at every step to make sure the internal representation is semantically correct and complete - and not bashed stuff around, copying and pasting and dragging by hand, until it looked okay-ish on the screen, like everyone else does.
And Visual Voice Mail—that was a huge step forward.

Could be three different processes interacting with different systems. Say one process listening to a CAN bus, another to local Ethernet[1] and a third to some I2C/SPI sensors. If they don't interact otherwise, which they probably wouldn't given they're just logging telemetry, it's more flexible to just have them as separate processes. The I2C/SPI might be a Python script, the others in C/C++ or Rust say, whatever is easier.

> So far he hasn't turned into a domestic terrorist, and neither is he selling heroin for crypto on the dark web.

So you think. I for one have greatly enjoyed subscribing to your kids’ onlyfans where he relentlessly mocks about how clueless they are to his terrorism and heroin business.

Joking aside, it’s hard to know what our kids are doing and reminds me of a friend who swears that their kids don’t need controls because they don’t do anything bad. And the kid literally has a YouTube channel with them vaping, getting arrested, tagging buildings. They literally said something like “I talk with my kids and know them and they would tell me if they were doing this stuff.” And there’s a weird cognitive dissonance when they watched the video where they said that it wasn’t them, but their friends. “They were holding that vape for their friend, they don’t use it.” People love their kids.

I struggle with having useful controls and use a mix of Apple, Microsoft, google and third party tools like bark. None of them work well. Some do a good job blocking, but not unblocking for things like school.

A simple example of Apple’s, that I think is best, you can set a screen time limit like “one hour a day” and then set some apps like those used for school as unlimited. But the unlimited time apps consume the one hour limit and block the “fun apps.” So my kids would wake up early to use their one hour before school and have no time after school. You can approve extended time, buts by clock time, not actual usage. So if you approve an hour at 709, then it’s allowed until 809, even if they only use the app for 30 seconds.

It’s a usability pain in the rear end and I can’t expect anyone actually uses it.

Not to mention how buggy it is. At least a few times a day it takes 60-120 seconds to open the screen time app because it syncs usage before letting you approve requests.

So really, it’s easier to just block devices altogether. If I could do it again, I would wait until 8th grade.
Completely disagree with the aproach humans are not perfect. This was not a one opportunity only event. Every test case they did not run, every load simulation they did not perform, every chaos test they decided to overlook was an example of humans failing repeatedly. Massive websites were running since the early nineties...And robust software practices are a thing of the sixties.

Not knowing Python, but I have a feeling things like this weren't as well known back in 2010 and the reason they're so well known is from people doing it at sites like Digg and then telling everyone that's a really bad idea. There are so many things that I know now for programming that were pretty much unknown 10-years ago because no one had really encountered them in a large scale setup.
I love how you've pushed your opinion as fact here.
