The thing is, the trash can Mac Pro kinda fits the market segment the Mac Studio is now in. If Apple had created the "Studio" range back then for it, rather than suggest it was the successor of the Pro, it would have been better received.

Apple don't tend to make the same mistake twice, this time they created the new marketing category for that product. 99% of people who would have been in the "Pro" category are happy getting a "Studio", plus a bunch upgrading from an iMac.

The Studio is the new Pro to them, it's just for marketing they needed to change the name and have a "continuation line" for the old product. As you said it's here for the long haul but mostly has a legacy range.
Yes, we value understandability if an application is succcessful.

My point was that even if logic isn't valuable understandability helps the person reading it decide whether to delete it or replace it. Code that can't be understood and sits within vast applications providing no value is often very difficult to remove and ends up being a long-term cost to a business.

> Perl? Wow. Is that better than bash, python or even nodejs? Why write in Perl over these?

It depends on scale.

If you have some quick parsing to do, then awk will get you started quickly, but as you expand your experimentation on what you want to extract/manipulate, it may not be easy to add onto the awk beginnings of your "one liner".

But if you start with awk-like† syntax but invoking it with Perl, then if you find you have to expand, Perl has more elbow room.

The intention is not to 'go big', which those other languages may be better at, but to more easily 'start small'.

† IIRC, Larry Wall wanted a utility that had awk/(s)ed-like syntax for text manipulation, just 'with more'.
> Then, in some jurisdictions like Ontario and BC, owner-occupied homes are actually charged less property taxes. In other words, renters are subsidizing homeowners.

I’ve owned in both and I am not sure what you are referring to. Residential mill rates don’t seem to distinguish between owner occupied and not. The only thing I can think of that resembles what you are talking about is the extra tax on vacant homes or extra tax in some municipalities on secondary homes?

> Then, in some provinces like in BC, you can actually apply to defer paying property taxes entirely until you're dead at which point the estate pays the balance.

There’s interest that applies too right? It is essentially a loan from the municipality and I think it also gets paid if you sell before death. I agree that it is totally bizarre that BC offers this.

> Further, homeowners with a home worth less than about 2.125 million, and you are 65 or older, you are eligible for a grant of $1045 per month discount on your property taxes simply for being a poor downtrodden homeowner.

Yup, this is ludicrous and a self-serving item by and for boomers. I think this is per year though - not per month.
You just start an http server with

python3 -m http.server 8080

and then access the server on the receiving device through its IP address. It’ll show a basic directory listing, and you can download from there.
So much for all those "you don't need static typing" / "dynamic typing is better" arguments.
A few months ago there was a leak where they showed Apple had x86 servers running MacOS.

They have the source and can compile for themselves. I doubt x86 support will truly leave while it’s still the only way to do servers.

Well I guess I’ll have to finally make a few withdrawals from society’s safety net after decades of deposits, oops, there isn’t one, or not one targeted at me.

Well I guess family and friends will fill the gap right? Yikes, hearing about bootstraps was actively unhelpful.

Well I guess I’ll “knuckle through” and if they find me dead, it will at least be at my desk, mid-keystroke when some blood vessel gave out.

I don't think the interest is that weird.

Before Apple Silicon, the performance ratio between a Mac Pro and the rest of their lineup was large. I think people were hoping the same ratio would somehow hold true today (i.e. rumors of a new M2 variant that was somehow two M2 Ultra stitched together, in the same way the Ultra is two Max, and the Max is two Pro...)

I'm sure someone out there is running a gigantic local storage setup with U.2 drives and the new Mac Pro, and is doing something that would require so many PCIe slots, but it does seem very niche.
You can start making progress quickly. When two numbers are added, the most you can get in a column is 9+9=18, which gives you a carry of 1. That means the next column will sum to at most 1+9+9=19. That means you can never have a carry higher than 1.

Since the sum has one more digit than any of the addends, the first column needs to receive a carry to not sum to 0, and since that carry has to be 1, M must be 1.

How you go from that to solving the rest in a matter of seconds, I don’t know.
Yeah, if you compare single cards, instead of cards that can be plugged together, with higher in-device memory storage.

And then there are capabilities that Apple silicon doesn't do, like storage device DMA into GPUs, GPU Work Graphs,...
> Also, Typescript is hard, apparently.

I am also skeptical of the accuracy of the initial rules but this seems like a domain that should be fairly easy to refine with a large enough corpus of data. Once an insurance company has a sufficient number of claims from telematics users I would wager that they will be able to find strong signals in the telematics data to identify customers who are likely to be expensive.
> It seems to me that 100 articles on 100 different topics across the globe might be much better written by 100 different freelance authors rather than the same 19.

You would think that but that hasn't really happened. The magazine had a point of view and editorial standpoint that people appreciated. What you are suggesting is basically what we get from digital outlets today.
I already bought a home (it is a starter home) and it is nice seeing my home price increase but I can never upgrade (well .. I can but it would be financial suicide to). I think some Canadian home owners get that but your point is actually totally valid. The Home Affordability issue just targets renters.

Having just upgraded from Mojave to Ventura, I don't really see that they're heavily pushing the desktop OS in the direction of a phone OS.

This is still the most powerful Unix desktop system out there, and there's nothing keeping "power users" (in lack of a better term) from treating it as such.

They've been talking about this for years though, and I think with people like Craig Federighi in place, there's no real danger of further lock downs.
I like how Awk is just a single executable. A single-executable Perl that includes only the core library would be great. There is Microperl [0, 1], but no idea how well it compiles with more up-to-date Perl versions.

A search engine doesn't index the HTML code. You're looking at a few Kb per document. You also don't need multiple historical snapshots of the document like WM retains.

> One issue is than ANC can't predict and sometimes react fast enough to sudden loud noises, so if an engine backfires next to you, your ANC headphones will take a few miliseconds to catch up and will allow the original sound (minus their inherent (passive) sound isolation) to reach your ear.

Want to add that the shortest path is only obvious from hindsight. And someone's shortest path maybe shorter than yours. Incremental iteration seems all the rage nowadays, but it didn't take one's taste and experience into account. If one's shortest path is long and winded, no amount of iteration will bring you to any sorts of local optima. The ultimate judgement is whether the things you built is getting use. If a tree falls in a forest and no one heard it, it didn't make a sound. It doesn't matter your code is good or bad. Build a mental map that leads you to building things useful
Or maybe it's more like a lawyer/consultant. In many situations, you know what needs to be done, but you'll run it by the lawyer because the lawyer has a lot more data and has seen this game many times before. So you are relying on their bank of information and pattern matching ability.
My auto insurance provider (in the US) has never even offered such a tracking program to me (and I know my current rates are pretty reasonable/in line with other companies). Maybe it's because of my history with the provider (I'm 50 and they've been covering me since I was 16)?

Based on the context provided through the article, I think what the author actually wanted was a Minimum Viable Product, that is, instead of coding the shortest path first, you remove the need for unnecessary paths (and without cutting corners). This should create a reasonably correct product that is safe to use and easy to build on top of.

But I do agree about the CI/CD part. In my case however, it's because many of these CI/CD services uses their own propriety config formats which are unfriendly for local testing. I can't remember how much time I've spent on hot-trying Travis CI just to get the build process right. I imagine things could feel a lot different if the services supports NixOS or just Dockerfile based script, because I can at least try the script locally before invoking the online service.
Playing devil's advocate here based on my own experience. It's sometimes extremely useful to be prompted to flip perspectives. Many people (myself included) find self-compassion much more difficult than compassion towards others.

I remember telling a therapist about various negative thoughts I'd had towards myself, and she said "Now imagine that a friend told you all those things. How would you respond?". The sudden shift in perspective from that simple question was huge. I went from "I'm clearly hopeless" to "Perhaps I do have worth".

Ontop of that, it's a powerful thing to encourage someone to do the work themselves rather than doing it for them. Similar to how people often learn mathematics better by solving problems than by reading textbooks.
Not really. You need a separate payment profile in the country you intend to subscribe to it. My Play Store profile is USA-based, but I'm in Thailand and I subscribe for the 1-year plan for $44.99. A new payment profile is created for YouTube billing, though I deleted it as it's quite a hassle to manage different profile; I'll create a new one if needed.

Just speculating. How would enum dispatch work here? If used as a library they won't be extensible I guess. But are there any other ways of using it that ways.

The author is a bit strange.

He said than he have only tree requirements: Phone notifications, step counting & long battery life. But then faced with a Casio he said "Casio watches showed promise, but their limited notifications and unattractive styling didn’t meet my preferences for a more elegant design"...

His final choice may have been more because of the "elegant design" than his initial requirements. He confirm it more or less because he even "had to disable a ton of fitness tracking features that I’ll never use just so that I could do the things I wanted."
The basic idea is that, keeping all other things constant, the code with the least surprises and paradigm shifts is the more maintainable one, because almost all code innovations have a learning curve that pays back the more you use the concept.

The maintainer is by definition on the losing end of that tradeoff, because they have to learn lots of things about your code and have limited opportunities to apply that learning. So poor code without surprises is much better than poor code that tries to take you outside of your comfort zone.

Thank you for the link. It's good to know that people can heal with proper treatment. Getting that treatment is difficult in the UK. As a nation we've entirely committed to a national health system. It's broken and everyone knows it, but it's presented a binary option between the NHS and the American system: there is no discussion of the European health systems that appear, at least from the outside, to be significantly better.

The education system infuriates me. I go to a technical school, it's meant to be for intelligent, motivated people to learn in peace and safety. But because of our ban on new grammar schools, bullies were let in - had to be let in - and their actions taken for granted. People insist standards are high, but they're only high if it's someone with a history of being civilised doing something wrong. It's just expected that there are violent people who will fuck things up for everyone around them, and nothing is really done about it.
I'm also happy with my Garmin vívoactive 3. It has the features I want and I can get it looking fairly minimalist. Battery life is good as well, probably over a week on a single charge, though maybe a bit less if I'm doing loads of activities.

gravity's impact on liquids is much more defined by them being pulled 'sideways' than 'up' or 'down'. For example, the tides are not mostly caused by the water being lighter or heavier due to the tidal forces of the moon and being pulled down by a greater or lesser degree, but by the sideways pull of the water on the 'side' of the earth causing it to bunch up where the sideways pulls converge (which is why you get tides with bodies of water as big as the oceans but not so much with lakes). The same thing happens here: stronger gravity elsewhere pulls the water sideways away from the low-gravity area, causing the depression (in fact, absent dynamic effects and other forces like wind, the surface of a liquid will be an isograv: every point at its surface will have the same gravitational potential).
The title should really be the quest for a cheap smartwatch with battery life, which seems to be what the author was looking for. The more expensive Garmin watches have excellent battery life and solar charging.

I use a Garmin smartwatch. One of the surprising things about Garmin is that they don't have a proper app store. They have an app where you can load apps into your watch, but it's rather crippled by having no payment system.

That would be fine if all the apps are free, but they're not: a lot of the prettier watch faces (for example) expect cash - but there's no easy way to pay for them. I recently added a watch face which stopped working after a few days because the author wanted cash sent through some dubious third party website.

I presume they do this to avoid issues with Android / Apple rules about payment, but it's a poor experience.
Well, "the sky" is nearby hills and mountains. This is a flat plane between some hills and some very tall mountains. If you've flown over the area you can see they even carved a human figure into the side of one of the hills overlooking the plains, as if it was a person standing and observing.

Also, it wouldn't be a lot of time to make the figures. It's a plain with an aeolian crust that is easily penetrated. You just need to move some hand-size stones around and scrape the oxidized crust to reveal the lighter substrate. It would probably all wash away after a rain, except it just never rains there.

Yes, you could always do creative stuff with limited resources. My point was rather that while it's possible to crank out cool stuff even on PS3 Cell's (and the lessons learned from that era has been useful afterwards), the mere ability to "randomly" traverse memory IF needed allows developers to do even more tricks that become troublesome if you don't have the ability.

> people who get coaching maybe just don't talk about it openly?

Ding ding ding.

I'm sure there are plenty of scammers and generic self help people, but a good exec coach is invaluable. You can get help and feedback on things as a CEO that are really difficult to get from your own company, leadership team, or investors — because the coach works for you, and the explicit goal is to make you better. Think how to better manage, how to raise, dealing with personality issues, org structure and pivots.

Try doing that with your board or investors (what if they think I'm bad at my job and fire me, or don't invest in my next round?) or your team (what if they lose faith in me?). A confident, experienced leader might not need this sort of help, but I highly recommend it for newly funded startup CEOs past 5 people.
