Apple are experts are experts at creating these patterns that fall just at the edge of being classified as anti-consumer, to the point where you frequently find heated discussions about whether they are.

Battery throtteling on the iPhone 6s; The sandboxing / sideloading discussion; The no-iCloud experience; The way that regular bluetooth headsets work fine, but AirPods work even better; How unauthorized Apps on MacOS must be opened with a right-click.

Safari suggestions are also a great example: So far, I like them in iOS 17, since they can also provide direct links to useful sites such as Wikipedia. But don't doubt for a second, that taking traffic away from Google was the primary goal here.

Microsoft isn't so smart. Most users, including non-technical, can see through their attempts.
Finally! I've waited 25 years for something like this, which totally derailed the career I had envisioned for myself. I might even lose the option of making fun of all new chips for providing marginal performance increases for exponentially growing complexity, and have to find a new shtick.

A few predictions/concerns:

* I can't find a price, so I'm predicting that it will be over $1,000 which will prevent it from going mainstream (and also be ~10 times more expensive than it should be).

* There will be poison pill(s). Maybe flash memory that can only be written 1000 times, preventing its use for evolutionary hardware and genetic algorithms. Maybe the place-and-route software won't be good enough to prevent short circuits, so certain configurations will burn up. Maybe some aspect of the software will be proprietary and/or encumbered by patents, preventing hobbyists from thinking outside the box and "getting real work done".

* Any dedicated hardware like memories, ALUs, etc may be misaligned for various use-cases. I just want an array of RISC-V, Arm, DEC Alpha, PowerPC 601/603, something like that, starting with 2 and topping 100 or 1000 cores eventually. So where I'll need memories near CPUs, something in the FPGA will lack the interconnect to allow that.

I hope I'm wrong about any or all of these. Price I can live with, as long as economies of scale or competition kick in and eventually deliver something under $1,000. The rest of it.. eh, I'm not holding my breath. I've been underwhelmed by all previous FPGAs, but maybe they didn't count. Maybe this is something new that finally manifests the original vision of what FPGAs could be.

I don’t think you have to conclude that was shared for that reason. It could be shared simply as “this is what a plaintiff alleges, and we don’t have any data or anything further to verify that these claims are true.”
The CCS chargers here all have those, but they don't work at Electrify America, evGo, ChargePoint or the smaller networks kiosks I've seen.

The one counterexample was that I found an EA terminal with a working credit card reader, but it did not work reliably.

For instance, you had to tap Visa, but insert chip for MC, and swipe Amex (I might have those constraints wrong), and if you did the wrong thing, the charge circuit computer state machine would get confused with the unexpected payment error, and put your car computer into a "busted charger" timeout mode. A re-attempt would cause most CC companies to issue a fraud lockout for that kiosk.

Also, these issues were compounded by the CCS connector EA uses being a bit out of mechanical tolerance, so the machine has a sign saying to pull up during handshake to get the computers to talk.

The same EA kiosks work reasonably well (> 90% success on first handshake) if you pay with the app.
Besides the obvious option of not using those apps, I have an adblocker on Android, and it works perfectly fine with my apps, so I’m not sure why that would change.
Open a terminal and type “wsl”, it will tell you what to do from there. It’s also easily available in the MS App Store without an account.
Wasm has the promise to be a single target for your plugins that could be written in node/rust/python and the consumer won't have to have that specific version of python installed. That and the possibility to sandbox a plugin so my repl function can't also upload my ssh keys would be nice.

WASM doesn't mean this has to be true, but it could be.
I feel very fortunate to have been around for this part of internet culture. Chat was so different at the time; this part especially stuck out to me:

>Our MC Skat Kat posted from the persona of this fictional MC Skat Kat, regularly referring to Paula Abdul as his girlfriend. Everyone simply accepted this.

You would see the same essentially-anonymous users every day, and there were users with known-unlikely stories - this is before catfishing as a concept was part of the lexicon - but they were just accepted. Did I think that I was talking, at 13, to Demi Moore about Bruce Willis's latest movie? No, I did not. But someone got online every night to just shoot the shit and pretend to be Demi Moore, and they were just one of the gang. No one believed them but no one tried to prove them wrong, either, because they were otherwise a good citizen. It was surreal, but at the time human interaction in real-time over the internet with strangers WAS surreal, in itself. No one could prove or disprove anything without a lot of work, so people just tended to shrug at wild claims.

I know that newer generations are all experiencing their own forms of social-media-ingrouping that they will feel just as nostalgic for, but it truly was a unique time.
We heavily used `sips` when I was at Apple, because it was quicker than writing code against QuickTime or the other rendering subsystems.
ƧƧ is a decent approximation (that's two backwards capital S glyphs, if it doesn't render)
You are assuming the intent of the poster. Your "civil rights" example does not capture the same (ambiguous) spirit that the poster's use of "woke" captures.

1. Did they use scare quotes to make it seem like "woke" is a nonsense concept?
2. Did they use quotes to identify that they are aware that they are perhaps using the term ackwardly, having little experience using it in discussion?
3. Are they putting it in quotes because they happen to already be mostly on your side regarding the word's offensiveness, and wanted to have a shorthand way to express that conviction without getting bogged down in the details?
4. Are they putting it in quotes as shorthand for all the ambiguity of points #1-3 and a myriad of other possible positions?

Your line of reasoning is a moral argument against using this word except in very limited circumstances where the speaker's moral stance is made clear with lots of stated qualifications- with no intent to offend, and with no possible indicated bias against any group that could be slighted by use of the term. This is a hostile norm of expectations that it makes conversations more difficult and less productive.

As far as I can perceive it, the majority of people haven't arrived at the conclusion that woke is a slur. When you are on the front lines of the linguistic fight, you're either gonna have to convince people that the word is hurtful, or at least convince them that if they use the word, bad things will happen to them. I'm not really convinced of either of these right now, and I hope that the majority of people are the same. After all, wokeness is a political stance, and it's pretty rare for descriptors of political stances to get a reputation as such a vile slur that we no longer use the word. After all, Nazi and Communist get thrown around as insults all the time, along with their non-insulting literal denotations.
> Maybe if it becomes a brain implant at some point. I hope to be long gone before then.

This has been a big fear of mine since I started studying CS. Implants that are still not fully proven safe, but create a massive productivity gain. This might make the choice to get a sketchy implant or be unemployed.
> The digits in your password must add up to 25.

Unclear what is not adding up to 25 here. Is it a bug?
The acceleration of the model 3 has already helped me avoided a few accidents.

That acceleration isn’t useless.
Its just human nature to start from a position and investigate outwards looking for facts. It takes discipline and practice to avoid doing this ... unfortunately. And I doubt anyone really reaches that level of objectiveness, instead generally trusting their "intuition" even when they're a practiced scientist.

Ultimately that's why debate and varied opinions are important .. as long as we all meet on equal footing and good intent.
Good to know, does the client have a basis to withhold payment simply due to believing my hours did not align with the "unusable" code they received?

This is the lamest thing I've ever seen someone try to pull. They even said they were generous with offering to pay a portion of the invoice, like they aren't legally required to uphold their end of the damn contract...
> I'm not really a fan of those & shortcuts.

One of my favorite parts of ruby!

`collect.each(&:operation)` vs `collection.each { |thing| thing.operation }`
The other networks have that too, fwiw. Though, for some, there is a big red "emergency stop" button that people can press, and it incorrectly marks the charger as broken.

So, the map will incorrectly tell you not to use that charger.

It's not a VPN service like the type you'd use for privacy. The VPN part all happens on your device so there's no data being sent to a third party for them to harvest to begin with.

Not sure if that is what you meant. If your concern is more generally about the app being malicious, I suppose you could audit the source code. But this is not something I have done or even am qualified to do, so I don't know.
> If that's correct, do you have a way to make this system portable? I feel like the place I'm most likely to need to answer such questions would typically only have my phone available.

If your phone runs Android, you can just install Termux and then do everything exactly the same. Stick the files in a git repo, edit with vim. If the ergonomics bother you, I think it's possible to have termux open files in an android native text editor app, but I unironically read and edit my files in (neo?)vim and it works fine.
That's still a no-op because `threads` is empty

I'm glad someone else has the sense to see Inside Out for what it was.

But the article just seems to reaffirm the idea that Pixar isn't what it used to be, just pushing the date to when they stopped making a lot of good movies further back.

Thanks for your comment! We're always open to product improvement around our Workflows product. I agree there's more features we need to add to service a robust set of web hook use cases.

With that being said, there may be ways to accomplish what you're looking for with the current state of our Workflows feature so feel free to send me a DM on Twitter or Linkedin.
It matters even in a Consolidated Market. The cost of a thousand calories of steak is different than the cost of a thousand calories of dried beans.

Just because the cost of dry beans has gone up 10% doesn't mean that you can't save money by eating them instead of beef.

If customers don't switch to beans despite high prices for steak, it tells you something about the demand for beef relative to the cost sensitivity of customers.
The good news is that when the battery dies, it has no moving parts!, keeping it simple.

EDIT:

What would be really neat ; putting little inflatable pontoons on those skids.

That thing is awesome, however, with the hard plastic wheels, and the way it scapes them back into forward wheels, I feel like this is a dead-in-the-water-flaw.

Imagine trying to scrape the wheels back into place on sand, or any other terrain obsticals that will prevent the pulling the wheels in.

Instead, it should move the pivot joint and allow for the wheels to be lifted up, gull-wing-style, then straightened and then placed down like feet, lift the body, then drive....

That thing will die in water without pontoons (the wheels/tyres maybe) -- and also not relying on scraping hard Big-Wheel stile plastice tyres along whatever surface.
Has the number of chips produced from a single wafer (assuming same wafer size) changed from what they call 5nm to 2nm? I know that's hard to quantify, you basically have to start a new architecture from scratch when a new node comes out.

I'm curious if the price increase isn't as bad as it seems because of that, but IANAE.

In any case, I suppose this was expected. TSMC is on the bleeding edge of technology, and the techniques and equipment that make all of this possible is absurdly astounding. It's a miracle of modern cooperation and science that any of it works at all.

Prices will go down as the process matures, and we all see progress march forward. Win-win to me.
Drones are the future of warfare so you are a little late to complain about drones being used for warfare. The race is well under way.

If you're using zsh, you can just replace any instance of

For bash, this only works if you have at least one `|`.
Not to mention, if you're able, you can paste in code to ChatGPT to give context and tell it to generate unit tests. I've found it does a generally good outline of code that annoys me to write, and then I can tweak the cases and add more as I need. Makes a chore I dislike much, much easier.

let me amend my point to: a system designed for storing counters can optimize for that case, while sql DBs will do relatively more IO to incremental a counter
Some time ago I was through a stage of depression, anxiety attacks and I couldn't eat a thing, my brain was simply refusing to accept a food. I lost a lot of weight then... But this is the worst way of losing weight IMHO. Every now and then I read about intermittent fasting and it reminds me of those days. When simply not eating lead to losing weight.
From what I can tell with my eyeballs, whatever the voltage limit is, it's less for NACS, since the DC pins are closer together.
here's my notes from reading the comments: https://notes.billmill.org/computer_usage/mac_os/mac_os_comm...
I'd be lying if I said I'd never thought about it. Given how many dejected people there are in society, including those who have had military training, I'm surprised there hasn't been more of it at this point.
It's not really intended to be a daily driver once you've built it. There is "beyond linux from scratch" that extends the system but.. normal distros with normal package managers are just infinitely more usable than a LFS system. It really is just about the journey and learning how it works from zero.

How do you know this is an NVIDIA issue, as opposed to a Wayland or wlroots issue?
I leave few things on Windows as Microsoft have opinions, and then OSQuery gives IT admins opinions.

I prefer as few outside opinions on what I run as possible, so I only leave Chrome and VSCode in Windows and everything else is in Linux.

I had run Linux for years, but whilst I still have Linux on desktop machines I leave Windows on my laptop as it truly gives me 8-9h battery life and Linux only gives me a matter of a few hours tops.
I honestly really like this, both conceptually and from an implementations point of view.

Assisting in the creation of single purpose functions is, in my experience, by far the most reliable use case for LLMs in regard to code creation at this point in time, yet is something I haven't seen many companies really lean into. In fact, the only other example I know of is Cloudflares Workers Workshop [0], which I have been waiting for since May.

What I especially like about the implementation showcased in your demo videos though was the visual component. Some subtle animations, effective use of diff, methods being editable before pasting, it all felt very cohesive and thought through, which is something I can't say about every company utilizing OpenAIs APIs. Seems more like something that can serve a real value add for users, rather than just jumping on LLMs because it's the hot thing this summer.

Really hope more people are experimenting with the "visual implementation" of LLMs, using animations and graphs to communicate LLM outputs has a lot of unused potential currently.

Ford's press release cited a study where they had paid drivers go to random Blue Oval (their charge affiliate network) chargers and see whether they could charge or not. They said this was the main reason they were adopting the tesla standard.

Anecdotally, 90% of the time I've been unable to charge at a Blue Oval certified network (I drive a BMW, but the list of networks is well-known), it has been a payment issue, not a CCS issue.

Also, the Biden administration recognized that this was a problem, and built a payment availability SLA into the inflation reduction act.
I'm not arguing, but do you have a source for this? I happen to agree with GP. I'm 55, I want a quiet, comfortable car. I don't care about performance.
Because that's not objecting; you're still feeding into the power Windows has over computing.

Bill Gates said so himself in 2007: "It's easier for our software to compete with Linux when there's piracy than when there's not,"[1]

I'm not pretending that the intervening 16 years hasn't changed things; I am happily gaming exclusively on Linux after all, something most people didn't truly expect back then. But that statement remains true regardless.

Presumably, it is also capable of performing valuable services. Otherwise why would you build it?
Apple has been pretty good at sticking to the premium market and not exploiting its users. However, even if we assume that Apple stays that way, their products might not be affordable for all users and many will choose less privacy if it comes with a reduced price, especially if they can barely afford a device as is.
The internal presentation states: "Move Windows 11 increasingly to the cloud: Build on Windows 365 to enable a full Windows operating system streamed from the cloud to any device. Use the power of the cloud and client to enable improved AI-powered services and full roaming of people’s digital experience."

Why would someone want to stream Windows from the cloud?

Wouldn't it make more sense to stream the data or offer a website or client application that uses cloud APIs to interact with the application running on a server?

Streaming a desktop operating system seems like a form factor mismatch. If I have a smartphone or tablet, I want a native application or mobile website that will work well with that form factor. If I am on a laptop or desktop, I have a local operating system, so why would I want to stream Windows from the cloud?
> Maybe we will be surprised by killer plugins that wouldn’t be possible with regular plug-in systems…

It's less "this wouldn't be possible" and more the fact that the existence of plugins that are sandboxed and access-permissioned makes me far more likely to seek out and install plugins in the first place, since it lowers the trust barrier. It's the same reason why I browse random websites freely while also being loathe to install random binaries on my computer. Being language-agnostic is just icing on the cake.
Nor is it the experience anyone with a Tesla experiences. Nothing else comes close to Tesla in build quality (My wife's Subi Forrester is a flaming POS in comparison) or driving experience. Every other car company makes vehicles to make money, and fail on target after warranty (or in the case of Ford during warranty costing Ford billions in warranty costs). Tesla seems to "break" capitalism, they make their cars to last and NOT break.
Someone pulling the plug has already made the call that those services are not worth the cost of whatever mischief the AI has been pulling.

This is why it grates on me when people say things like we shouldn't legislate morality. At it's core every legislative question is a moral question, but we don't actually want to debate the moral issue so we instead frame the discussion as if we are really debating theoretical models that can be tested and disproven.
Thanks for the kind words! A lot of thought went into the user experience. You can expect the same level of thought with all of our future AI features.
Its the sort of bare-faced lying that is genuinely offensive to me and just swooshes over the head of most which just makes me all the more irate.
those android phones will have terrible materials, terrible internals and non-existent support. Their existence doesn't really say much.

I also dislike many things apple does but all too often, their hardware quality is good and lasts a long time. I'm still using a 2014 macbook. it is on its last legs but eight years out of a piece of tech is borderline amazing.
The problem is much harder than arguing against a "panacea". That's a classic straw-man – it's very rare for somebody to actually believe a new tool will solve "all their problems". The difficulty is you might find a tool that could solve many of your problems but has trade-offs. Some of which are foreseeable and some which are not. Predicting and weighing those is the hard part, not disabusing people of the notion of a perfect solution.
That plus reasonable security (my code isn't worth money) is all I really want...
