Yes and no.

If they aren't making money and aren't likely to be making a lot of money at any time in the future, it doesn't seem low - regardless of whatever impact you perceive. One of the problems that ARM faces is that people have alternatives or can create them. For example, you talk about Apple, but Apple is only licensing the instruction set. Instruction sets have some value, but the real value that ARM provides is in their core design. However, more players are looking to design their own cores. Apple already does and Qualcomm is looking to do the same. That would really harm ARM's revenue stream.

Did ARM bring about these paradigm shifts or were they merely a convenience? Apple started using ARM in their iPhone because it was a convenient and affordable low powered processor, but if ARM had wanted more for their IP, people wouldn't have used ARM in the first place.

It's one of the reasons that companies like to bait-and-switch if they can. Get people using your product for cheap and then hike the price once everyone is using your thing. You then argue that you've created so much value via your product - but everyone would have just used something else if you'd charged a lot from the beginning.

ARM's in a tough place where Apple has an architecture license and makes their own cores and others are looking to follow that lead. As ARM tries to generate profits, others are there to stop that from happening. I'm not as bullish on RISC-V as many on here (it just takes a long time to get to the level that high-end ARM chips are at), but it could certainly start eliminating some business and provides a hedge against ARM increasing prices.

CNBC is saying ARM's PE ratio is 170. Where's its growth going to come from to justify that? With Nvidia, we see major growth. Nvidia has a differentiated product with some lock-in around CUDA and such. ARM's largest customers are looking to pay ARM less money going forward. If ARM loses its suit against Qualcomm/Nuvia and Qualcomm stops using ARM's cores, what happens to ARM's revenue/profits?

Some businesses that have a large impact only have that large impact because they were offering an affordable product. That affordability limits their valuation. Without that affordability, the world would have gone in another direction. Right now, ARM is trying to figure out how to pump up its profits given the slight amount of lock-in it commands. However, I think it's more likely that ARM will just hasten companies moving to their own core designs and investing more in RISC-V.
Fondly remembering the constant nightmare that was browser bugs and IE support from the mid 2000s to the mid 2010s.
"basically forever" is only true in Mac-land now because of the recent architectural switch.

Apple was dropping support for specific Intel microarchitectures with each release for a while there.

Now that the future is ARM, these machines will be supported for a long time. Not sure how long the Intel Macbook Pros from 2020 will be. I bet it's not another 8 years.

2016 is an important cutoff because it is when they introduced the T1 boot security chip. Some future macOS will drop support for everything before these machines, which will permanently evaporate the concept of a hackintosh.
Latency. I may spend 1,000 times as long looking at a website as it takes to render but that doesn’t mean taking a long time to render is ok.

This is why modern consumer processors have boost modes followed by thermal throttling.

To me “open letter” usually signifies that there are a significant number of signatories, like various open letters to governments from the scientific community, with one not being a significant enough number to qualify however important that one person is (or thinks they are!). Sort-of like difference between some random person telling you that you are too drunk too often, and a group of concerned friends & relatives staging an intervention, to put it into a social context. It is that significant number of significant (either to the receiver of the letter, to the public at large, or both) people that makes it important. Here I feel the term is being used incorrectly.
It's definitely not a super intuitive model, but it is a powerful one.

As I see it, git is a distributed database of snapshots of a directory of files. Every commit is a new snapshot. It's designed the way it is to achieve that goal while minimizing the space used, yet keeping an entire history of the project. It also has tools like git-diff to better compare those snapshots.

But distributed matters most because it was literally designed for managing the Linux kernel development- a large open source project with thousands of contributors working concurrently.

Merge conflicts are hard in this model because you're trying to put two snapshots together, not just two diffs.

- free2play games. It's all about those whales.
- games. Preorder, delux/collector editions, DLC, battle passes, micro transactions, etc.
- a bunch of SaaS offerings are adding new AI tiers right now, e.g. Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Dueling to name a few.

There was definitely a time when the name of the game in tech, was expanding the user base. Right now it feels like everyone is trying their hardest to increase their per user revenue or as companies would put it, capture more of the value they generate.

One might think, that this could actually have its upsides. Companies increasing the value to their existing users to entice them to pay more, but by and large this isn't what I'm seeing. Instead it feels like many are instead putting existing features behind higher paywalls, churning out junk content, particularly in games as well as adding the buzzword of the year, e.g. NFT, metaverse, AI.

Instructions to not _do_ things are conspicuously lacking from these trainings. We were instructed not to consider the legality of what we were doing, avoid using all the above language, and let the lawyers clean up afterwards if it's necessary. I think the only exceptions might have been export controls, copyright (loosely), and HR training (discrimination, etc.).

Seems like we're talking about different things.

For one thing, I could see the possibility that some part of Google may have engaged in unethical behavior. It might even have been at the C-level. It might have crossed the antitrust law, who knows. I have no idea.

On the other hand, I do believe that when Google was sending this message company-wide, pretty much everybody understood it as "Don't use these words because they can be taken out of context and then you're going to have a lot of pain," not "Don't use these words because then we cannot hide the unethical things we might be doing." I was there at Google.
The conflation of "MacOS" with "Apple computer" is a problem that should be addressed.

Dimensional analysis is useful when you want to convert between compositions of units. A good example is comparing the price of petrol where different units are being used. If you know the conversion rate between litres and gallons, and the conversion rate between USD and GBP, then you can figure out the conversion rate between USD/gal and GBP/L:

USD/gal * GBP/USD * gal/L = GBP/L
1.24 USD = 1 GBP
1 gal = 3.78541 L
GBP/USD = 1.24
gal/L = 3.78541
USD/gal * 1.24 * 3.78541 = GBP/L
USD/gal * 4.6939084 = GBP/L
$4.6939084/gal = £1/L
Hertz are really only appropriate for describing cyclical events. But by convention the units are just 1/s, so have fun abusing it.
There are quite a lot of HN users that insist on logical correctness at least the vast majority of the time, and they will probably outlast you both in a debate and as a participant in online commenting. So it's just one of those things that you either accept or downvote and move on.
> to the worse impulses

In my experience, making stuff that provides no intrinsic value like video games, only value of meaning, my games have only gotten better by catering to those impulses, which are really not that negative or stupid.

Really, who needs tutorials? Why make stuff that needs a tutorial? You can have complex games without tutorials and FTUEs. You don't need so much UI. It's not about scrolling so much as it is that so many apps obscure, rather than transmit, anything meaningful, through really obnoxious UI.

Go to a real ophthalmologist, not some Luxottica tourist scam.

It took until age 40 for a reputable ophthalmologist to do an old-school 4 PRT to discover I had monofixation syndrome. [1] It also suggests diminished depth perception and explains why I can't see autostereograms.

> From a bank/fund perspective - we get tons and tons of training about how we should not insider trade, money launder, etc. They have people who have gone to jail come give talks about how it's not worth it, it was the biggest mistake of their lives, etc. Never ever, across half a dozen firms and 20 years, have I had training that was like "so hey don't use these terms that are used by insider traders because that would give the wrong impression when you are um.. doing your job and stuff..".

I got the same takeaway when I was at Google as when I was in the hedge fund space: be careful what you say, regulators and judges might not be very charitable. In both cases, the concept of something you say being in the New York Times was present for me.

The Googlewide training and messaging when I was there did focus on not using anti-trust-triggering _language_ over the specific acts, but I don't think it's fair to interpret this as "Violate anti-trust regulations" but rather a recognition that the common fuck-up some random employee can make isn't to commit a material anti-trust violation, but to provide nasty evidence by writing a puffy email about "crushing the competition". Telling people to write emails about "making users happy" rather than "owning the market" is not telling people to behave badly.

I don't know what you're doing in finance, but it's my understanding that folks who are actually involved in stuff where their job could look like insider trading probably do get subtler lines drawn than I ever sought (I was in systematic/program trading.) Places where doing my job well could be confused for something bad, e.g., tax optimization, we did discuss how to properly communicate in order to avoid misunderstanding if a regulator, court, or journalist ever read our communication.
Heh, I knew all the names by the photo... maybe I should leave the house one day.
The I had the last pixelbook and loved it as a dev laptop. Although, the hardware was lacking.I have a Framework running Fedora now.

I like the default window manager and shortcuts on chromeOS better then any linux distro. I hate customizing linux distrubtions and I like a laptop where I can sync my backups and start new with little time configuring. I really love the linux container/vm integration and would like to see further polish for running VMs and containers. For me the single remaining and sort of major downside is that I can't just read a large variety of filesystems to access backups. I can't DD a linux ISO to pen drives either. I'd like to play with bcachefs when its out for backups but currently I can't on chrome OS. Its so close to being such a nice base secure OS with great out of box container/primitives, but it just feels easier and more practical to run fedora these days and chromeOS develops pretty slowly.
Git separates its plumbing from its porcelain very well. That makes all the different front ends possible. Maybe there's one that will help you to work with git?

Well they're bringing AAA games like Resident Evil 4 Remake and Assassin's Creed Mirage to the iPhone, complete with raytracing support, so it looks like it'll be a golden age of Apple gaming soon enough.
Purposely being coy about they type of updates thinking it will get brand new OSs up to year ten is disingenuous. It will likely be security patches mostly after year 3
Agreed. Right before your comment I pulled mac from the list. I was thinking of apple's iphone support being pretty good in the mobile arena and conflating that with their non-mobile support.

After double checking to see what's going on with old hardware, it became really clear that apple doesn't support their older laptops.

I'm about 25 years into my career, and I can definitely say there is a plateau. Yes, my first job switch resulted in almost a whopping 50% increase. Wow! Second job switch was about +25%. Third was +10%. Fast forward a decade, my last two job changes were pretty much even. Maybe 0.1%+ if that. You will get to that point if you don't go into the executive leadership suite.
I like this because I like to flatter myself that I have a good intuition about people after seeing them, and this shows that I’m completely wrong about that—barely better than random.
“ There is a catch though: Apple's A17 Pro operates at 3.75 GHz, according to the benchmark, whereas its mighty competitors work at about 5.80 GHz and 6.0 GHz, respectively.”

This is why numbers like this don’t matter when you say the performance is within 10%
The early watches (or at least my old series 3) had issues staying powered through the day if you did workouts or other intense (for the watch cpu) activities. My series 7 has never come close to zero in the two years I’ve had it.
How do you run both? Or is this one as a VM within the other?
I've seen older literature that just uses "cycles," "kilocycles," and so forth.

It's never abbreviated, so I always assumed the use of a named unit came from the desire to be able to write shorthand like kHz.
Thank you!

You are right: Nue takes inspiration from Vue 2.0, petite-vue and Riot.

I'll make the comparison more fair, but it doesn't take out the fact that React/Vue promote use of "spaghetti" code where logic/layout/styling are mixed together making the code hard to read and causes the size to grow. Everywhere I look the projects are unnecessarily big. Very often in the factor of 10x too big.

Pretty sure Nue JS will always need a build step. I don't like the idea to load the compiler and run JS exec() on the client side. Heavy and unsecure.

Haven't checked performance yet. I want to see this project getting more traction before deep diving to benchmarking

Ville, in response to who forked it: "Coders from Ukraine's eastern neighbor. And closed source seems to be a quite good way of getting rid of their forum spamming (to use a polite expression)."
Agreed, it's super useful to write out all the units and check that they cancel out properly.

I usually write out the Witt I want to convert, complete with units, and successively multiply by dimensionless conversion factors which equal 1.

That is to convert 45 MPG to "km/l" I'd write out:

45 (mile / UK gallon) * (1 UK gallon / 4.55 l) * (1.6 km / 1 mile)

The expression (1.6 km / 1 mile) is dimensionless and equal to 1 (it's a length divided by an equal length).

Cancelling the units gives (45 / 4.55 * 1.6) km/l
You're confused because you're treating the repo server as special.

Git doesn't do special. All branches, on all machines, are just branches. "main" on your device and "origin/main" (main on the machine you called "origin"), are two different branches. They don't need to share a name, you can just as easily set your local "main" to have "origin/Release" as its upstream. The name "main" isn't special. You can name your branches anything you desire. If you want to lock yourself out from controlling your own code, that's a customization for you to make. To git, there's no difference between committing to "main","feature111", or anything else. "origin" isn't special, either: you can have many different repo servers hosting different branches. Or maybe you don't have a repo server at all, and you just have all your fellow devs machines and you coordinate via email.

While being perhaps a bit un-opinionated, it also makes Git conceptually extremely consistent, and thus simple.
Yeah, I originally had some Linus snark in there but deleted it. My above comment is being rapidly downvoted though, which is in some sense validating.

Not really comparable though- when someone says "google it" they mean "use whatever search engine is configured in your browser to look it up".

Nobody has ever said "I saw it on twitter" when they actually saw it on TikTok.
Remember that whatever is in the A series chips ends up in future M series chips too, only with lower thermal and battery restrictions.

Twitter or X, Musk owns them both. From a sociopathic satisfaction perspective, I doubt he's losing sleep over the people making iOS shortcuts to bring back the little blue bird icon.

The better thing to call it is 'dead'. No private platform should be as depended-on as Twitter was. Our mistakes will inform the future of social media.

I have a 2017 Ford Focus without a 4G cell connection (came with 3G, which is no longer supported) - no tracking.

It works fine - has physical dials/switches for most things, it does have a screen for backup camera and CarPlay and the like. It doesn't have parking assist or any sort of lane keeping or autopilot. Seats 5, but not a lot of trunk space.

Only issue is it has a 110mi range which is fine for my commute or going short distances out of town.

If you want something like this find an older EV, and disconnect the cell modem.
