> the median student

Oh boy. I feel like people who are active in the education policy world will come for you with pitchforks for suggesting that.

Arguably the median student is exactly what public school kinda does fine with today. Such kids basically learn what they need to and probably get into an ok college and have a decent chance in life.

However, the parents of the kids with learning disabilities or neurodivergent brains are screaming that it doesn’t work for their kids, who are absolutely floundering and cannot learn in the “median kid” environment. Meanwhile the parents of the gifted kids, the ones who truly are having their time wasted “learning” with those far beneath their own abilities, are also complaining bitterly that their kids aren’t being challenged enough, and they resent any attempts to temper the speed of the curriculum to allow the bottom half of the class to finish grasping the material. Neither of these groups is well-served - and it seems like any changes made to help one of them frequently hurts the other.

(I don’t have any answers for any of these groups, which is why I’m not involved in telling anyone how to do education!)

In this case, we're using the term "cross-vendor transferable" to mean that the key material can be exported out of one vendor and imported into another. So if you could export the passkey from Windows Hello and import it into your iCloud Keychain, that would be cross-vendor transferable. Or if you could export the Resident Key out of your Yubikey and import it into Google Password Manager, that would be cross-vendor transferable.
It sounds like the tutoring you were doing was supplemental to your students' primary source of education. That's probably mostly what the parent was referring to as remedial tutoring, as opposed to an education primarily delivered through tutoring.

That’s because Microsoft GitHub is a proprietary monolith. Compare that to the open core & self-hosting of GitLab the more FOSS-positive space where each server (without federation) requires a new sign up, confirmation emails (meaning you already had to go thru email), CAPTCHAs, setting up new keys, etc. That said, you will need to get your email filters in place or you can get a lot of new, unwanted mail (assuming you are required to sign up which often isn’t the case).

People have always thrown around corrosive falsehoods like you wouldn't believe. At least modern social networks also let others spread corrections and counteractions to common myths and bullshit political beliefs.

I'd love to see some modern polyannas about "misinformation" hop into a time machine and then spend even a few days talking to any average group of people about their general beliefs in the mid 20th century on downard, or just take a look at the kind of utter invented garbage and hyperbole that was constantly peddled and regularly sold to wide swathes of the public by government and media organizations of all kinds so much more easily in previos decades and centuries.

Humans love to invent stories based on tribal notions and biases, so falsehoods never go away even in the most advanced communication age in human history, but historically, we're not doing so bad, simply because the cost of spreading any idea is now lower than ever previously and the means for doing so are more widely available than they've ever been, letting things average out much more rapidly towards message dilution. Anything in the opposite direction, and any centralized "vigilance" of supposed wrong ideas will only take us back to a place where a small number control more narrative than they ever should, and that small number will always tend towards dictating based on selfish interest.

One very underestimated aspects of the logistics business is trust. Specifically trust in your carrier/forward-freight/etc company.

The least thing that you as a SME and/or a BigCo. wants is to have one of the companies that deliver your physical goods (that implied some manufacturing and other resources in advance) being carrier for some unstable company[1] in terms of cash with financiers (e.g. Venture Capital) that characteristically has the reputation to make it or fail.

I did all of that on an M1 MacBook Air and now on a M2 without any problems whatsoever. Only caveat the Airs have is that you can't attach more than one external screen without some workarounds[1]. If you don't rely on that the machine should be more than capable of what you're looking for!

I started again at 32. Similar story to you (kinda).

4 years later, I can build anything I want with lines of code in 3 languages. Best part = building is free (it takes time tho) + it's fun.

My advice to you is to decide what you want to work on by building things.

It's true that learning CS is important. But you can just read books + do youtube lectures on the side from the big colleges.

The tech dream you are referring too is about building things. There is a lot to that but nothing beats actually building things for users.

Also, remember that knowledge work (like tech) still have people working at 70 years old. I have conversations with programmers who are around that age. They haven't slowed down.

To answer your question, where do I begin, start by building something that you would have used in a PM role. Once you have the project in mind, the details will fall into place (google!)

I have a maxed out 13 inch M2 air, it’s a great device.

It's just a regular thing on anything crowdsourced. Ubuntu uses Weblate, so just create an account on Github, sneak anything you want and wouldn't be understood (how many people in Ubuntu knows Ukranian? Russian? Persian? Hebrew?), ask for a merge.

Unfortunately no write-up. But to get music to pause when the phone rings I use the Spotify integration and HA companion app. It's a pretty simple automation - it has one trigger when "Phone state" changes to "ringing", one condition that Spotify is playing, and one action which sets Spotify to paused.

I think the "ringing" state provided by the companion app only works on Android, not iOS though.

OwnTone has an HA integration so I would expect you can do something similar with that.

Moving from an aging intel macbook to a modern m2 is a night and day difference, the passive cooling won’t limit you for most dev tasks you throw at it.

As for your throttling, I experienced massive throttling issues on a 2018 macbook pro 15”. Started out of the blue, and was so bad that I couldn’t even do 15 minutes of video meetings before audio and video lag and break ups set in. Lived with it for weeks, until I tried resetting the SMC - which worked like magic! Machine returned to its former glory. Worth a shot in your case as well.

Other things to try if the machine is aging, is to open it up, clean all the dust, and reapply thermal paste. It might be all clogged up depending on where you’ve used it. Aging thick thermal paste can be pretty bad as well.
Just because you are not on Twitter (or Facebook, or whatever) won't stop other people from tweeting lies about you. And the public image that you have on social media matters a lot in this society. See also: "Cancel culture".

Working in IntelliJ on a few Java projects (40k LOC) and a few Docker containers, works great. I've never seen it throttle outside of video games and when it does throttle it's by 5-10% so not much but then I'm just building web apps.

If your projects are bigger or if you have a front end open in say VSCode or WebStorm at the same time and more than quite a few Docker containers then I'd recommend the Pro - basically any Macbook with a fan.

> The idea of going to a doctor with “procrastination” seems very off in that context.

I understand your sentiment, but how about we call “procrastination” what it is: Consistent and repeated non- or under-functioning.

If the person has tried over years so many things, out of the good and best will to function, participate in society and work culture and still fails, why do you still call it “procrastination”? I guess it must be a cultural thing, especially German, to not give the benefit of doubt and just call a medically relevant condition “Faulheit”. I hope you realize that denying the be benefit of doubt - especially after many years of unsuccessful tries, perpetuates the sickness of people and denies them aid that would help them and make them functional again.

Procrastination can be a symptom of deep and challenging mental health issues, some of which have still huge stigma around them. This stigma makes individuals not seek help where actually needed. So please, work on your stigmatization and be more compassionate so that the person might have a chance to overcome their internalized stigmatization.

I mean, the goal here is to turn people functional again, and not bully them, am I right?

Of course it's not legal. OP's property was damaged by store staff.

Also, in the US there's implied merchantability warranties, and most people have no idea it exists. If your expensive high quality headphones die a week after the one year warranty ends, implied merchantabilty still applies, because people expect headphones to last several years if treated appropriately.

OP needs to go back to the Apple store and say "I came in with a working airpod and case, and left with nothing working. Please make this right."

If they refuse, say "my next stop is small claims court for your staff damaging my property."

The problem is that you can't permanently disable it.

To me, the risk of something like what happened to OP is more concerning than being able to lock a thief out of using/reselling my laptop. So I'd prefer to just disable Activation Lock entirely, and prevent it from ever being enabled. Of course, the ability to do that essentially reduces the theft deterrent somewhat, so Apple wouldn't want to implement this ability.

> you're doing something very wrong with your Airpods when many of its users are able to do long walks and runs without them ever budging

It's a product relying on friction fit with a body part that's shaped differently on every person, what makes you even consider the individual user is at fault?

Also in my experience Airpods require a very precise orientation in the ear to really hold well. If the angle is a bit off they can fall out within 30 seconds, if it's exactly right I can listen to music for an hour without any issue. But I can't eat or drink in that time as that almost guarantees they'll slip out, and lying on my back is also not a good idea apparently.

Those things are otherwise really cool devices but this is definitely a problem. I've seen a YouTube review where the guy said he's on his third pair by now.
> laws of physics

Honest question, which of those is in any way applicable to this technology? Besides the fact that these services already exist and, provided you have decent infrastructure, which will only become more accessible as time goes on, do serve most people's gaming needs even in this early state.

Of course, there will always be some for whom local will be the preferred option, but they were talking about the future default. There are still people buying and consuming Blu-ray due to its higher quality, but the default (i.e. what the majority use) has become streaming, and I don't see anything preventing gaming going the same way. If you wanna stick with gaming, the majority tend to play on consoles and do view the advantages in convinience to outweigh the disadvantages in terms of possible fidelity, higher framerates and lower latency that a PC may offer (even in cases of similar pricing).

Concerning cloud gaming, network latency will go down, and the offered bandwidth will go up in most areas of the globe. With recent advancements in high quality upscaling, networking demands will also decrease. Physics is not a hindrance, unless I am overlooking something.

>I am running in "linux/amd64" mode as I had some compatibility issues.

we were having the same issue at work, and one of the solutions was move as many images to arm64 as possible.

so, things like postgresql, rabbitmq, redis are quite safe. it made development a lot faster and it was using a lot less memory.

the other thing was doing work on making sure our microservices were also arm64 compatible, which was not that hard given we mainly use python.
