That's what accessibility settings are for. These aren't an afterthought. Good interfaces are designed with them in mind.

voice/sound controlling their computer

Desktop interfaces aren't a good fit for these modalities anyways, and I don't want a 1% use-case detracting from my ui. If you designed an interface from the ground up for eye-tracking, it probably also wouldn't have any scrollbars (see Apple Vision)

A bigger problem are signifiers that something can be scrolled. Mostly it's self-evident that there's more content outside the viewport, but sometimes you run into edge-cases: iOS used to have some bad spots in the share sheet and Apple Music.
I agree, publicly deployed models seem to be easy to train from. I did say "internally deployed LLM" though. agentcoops said "...where the models in question increase the productivity of workers in their non-ai-related profit centers" above, that's the bit I was thinking about. I think private models, either trained from scratch or fine-tuned, are going to be a big deal though they won't make the PR splash that public models make.
Not everybody plays games that need such low latencies

e.g. Simulation games like Anno 1800 or Cities Skyline 2 require extremely good hardware if you want good frame rates late game

Besides most competitive players I know all play on lowest settings to minimize risk of lag spikes so they're unlikely to be the target audience anyways

> Why there are so many people under mental health issues?

Do you know any other "mental health" issues except of just being stupid? Can you elaborate on that kind of issues?

> My question is, the whole business model of the world gone wrong?

Same issue but a different perspective. You might be a really smart guy, possible a Noble winner, but then you buy some computer devices which are hostile to a FOSS philosophy, you lose some of your personal freedoms and attract other guys, smart guys and really smart guys to do the same. Those devices limit a honest discussion by allegation reasons (CSAM, Patriot Act, ignorance of Ed Snowden's research etc) and the world without a honest discussions is going to fall in a war with increased speed and acceleration.

Roughly same is happening with climate change - there is a lack of a honest discussions and that leads to such an ultimately stupid decisions as closing nuclear electro stations in Germany.

Another growing problem is anti-abortion laws which will increase a criminalship after 15+ years from now. How is even possible to persuade religion-driven actors to consider the real facts? I believe only prohibition of every piece of software but FOSS can fix the problem of lacking the honest discussions.

Anyway, interesting take that people working for the public should have no right to privacy in any way. Not sure you will find many people for such work, though.
I don't do mobile work.

I mostly use either VScode or Rubymine while working with Ruby (mainly using Rails) while running multiple docker containers (some setups required multiple projects to run in the same time)

If I don't do video calls or screen sharing the actual development works fine - with an external fan under the laptop. But in general it gets warm even if I don't do video calls.
If you don't want to pay duties and plan on getting the equipment back from the trip you should get an ATA Carnet.
I very much agree, plus:

Are they thinking of the kids when they come for dad when dad really doesn't like his pictures scanned and self-hosts his infra and uses a Linux based phone?

"Remove half of the signs, they become outdated whenever we change the roads"

Software is written by humans for humans, and documentation is a fundamental part of it, and needs maintenance just like the rest. It is beyond me why one would want to maintain only half of the thing and say "discard the rest"
Dammit! I recorded that episode in 1978 and was going to listen to it tonight for the very first time. Now it's been ruined for me!

It is definitely reasonable to avoid Apple products! For both these sorts of reasons and others. I'm not trying to argue otherwise. However, the claim "it's reasonable to not use Apple products" is very different from "using/liking Apple products is a sign of Stockholm syndrome".
Possession of OAuth Client Secrets doesn't grant you access to any private data, it's a non-issue and it's unrelated to the linked Cisco vulnerability:

You can get closer by limiting the depth and breadth of the API, for example by using VT100 and the I/O operations from the C standard library.

That is ‘a bit’ minimalistic, but it is “just a single stable, non-bloated, reliable, portable platform that could be used for when you just want to Write Once and then know that it will Run Everywhere _forever_ […] Would not even have to be an entire API”, and it could run on hardware that has no chance to run Win32.
This is a X11 feature AFAIK. Meta+Right-click resizes the window by the way.
My point is that it's extremely common for people to go "this doesn't need to be documented", and then I come along as a user of the library and have to actually run the thing to determine its semantics.
SEO is the name of the game, and Microsoft is hoping to capitalize on some of the traffic and direct it towards WSL. Obviously their interests are selfish (as is the nature of business), but that explains some of the language.
First of all Linux distributions are the laggard, commercial UNIX systems have moved away from init before systemd was an idea.

Secondly, Lennart Poettering became a Microsoft employee only recently, after all the systemd drama took place.
It's pretty much as big an issue now, because my field of view has not gotten any bigger.

And I think you missed the essential part of my comment: The reason it's a waste of screen real estate for me is that there is no need for any edge to grab when I can grab the window anywhere by combining with a keypress.

I have more real estate to "grab" than you can ever get with borders that way, without dedicating any space to it at all.
I had a Casio calculator that could show calendars like this. It could also play do-re-mi when you pressed digits and you could set an alarm with a jolly tune. And when I pressed the square root key repeatedly, the number got smaller and smaller until it showed 1. This was the 80s and it was my most precious thing.
I dunno, something just doesn't smell right about this guy's story.

For example a search of his blog post for the words "recovery key" yields zero results.

You don't need to setup Find My. But you must use at least one of the many options that Apple provides you to regain access.
I used these, or tried to. The UX was beautiful, but it was unusable. All form no function. A properly put together UX should solve the latter, and if the former can also be incorporate, all the better.
> have you tried acupuncture?

Did not try that.

Currently, I am doing it twice per year kinetotherapy, and in the last 6 months, I lost around 10 kg - making the pain a bit more supportable. I even have days without feeling any pain at all.
That would be ideal for me as well. I tried getting something similar to work and eventually gave up. I just game through Steam and let the preconfigured proton stuff handle everything.
I would like to apply for Backend Engineer role, where should I apply?
Every now and then I use geforce now as my pc is very outdated and my laptop can't handle some games. Last Christmas I used it to play riftbreaker which none of my devices can handle. So for people like me it's great, I can't justify spending lots of money on a new pc
The problem with about:config options is that Mozilla sometimes decides to remove them (based on telemetry numbers perhaps). The usual path for an unpopular option seems to be GUI -> about:config -> The Void.
I do tech DD and get to see the other side of the table as well, which can be pretty interesting. Some VCs are cautious and spend wisely, others are reckless and will throw money away in the hope of a jackpot. I've seen business cases that were so broken they essentially amounted to VC subsidized re-sale of luxury goods and yet nobody thought twice about it. I think I understand the rationale behind about the 50% or so of the deals that I see. But - and this is where it gets really interesting - I've been wrong on a low number of occasions too (from the investors perspective, they made out like bandits) and there is a pattern here: VCs don't necessarily need for the company to work out long term, they just need for it to work out until they sell their shares. This is known as the 'bigger fool' theory and you have to wonder how many of the 50% of the deals remaining falls into that category.

Finally: some VCs have a model that drives them to do this, they get paid over 'funds under management', and whether or not that eventually works out or not doesn't matter all that much, they get paid in the meantime. It will ultimately affect their ability to launch new funds but by then they usually have three funds in flight due to the delay between launching the first fund and the problems in the investments catching up with them, companies with money to burn can take a long time to fail.
The soloists and populars of the software world
Some people leave their stuff in a shopping cart, some people don't setup their new laptop completely, some people aren't careful with their equipment at airport security. It's not a personal failing, it's just the way they are.
Ok, but we were talking about the default, the average for the majority of consumers. Did any of them care about the far more significant latency that their TVs processing imposes (or did impose, as now many TVs switch to "game mode" by themselves) on their console gaming experience?

No, the majority never even noticed. The irreducible latency some are talking about is imperceptible, not a factor for the vast majority of the populus. Ease of use, lack of install times, flexibility, and ability to spread out cost, all will outweigh that.
Is it even close? 4 of my 174 Steam games have Microsoft's name on it, and if they bought Activision.. it'd still be 4.
This is indeed a cautionary tale. But soon enough, this taking out electronics at airports will be a thing of the past as more and more airports deploy luggage scanners like the ones at Dubai airport where you don't have to take anything out of the bag.

In general, here's my operational security to prevent scenarios like this:

1. All my luggage has uniquely identifiable tags and stickers on them. This includes my laptop, mobile phone, chargers and cables. This largely avoids myself or someone else mistakenly picking up wrong things.
When I'm asked to take out electronics at airport security, I use 4 trays in sequence – carry-on luggage, all my electronics in the tray, and my backpack, my shoes. This way, my electronics tray is sandwiched between my luggages. I also put my laptop in a thin cushion sleeve and I have not been asked to remove the sleeve. I also put all my smaller electronics and cables in a clear plastic zip bag and put it in the tray. Then, I try to cross the human x-ray at the same time as my luggage (most airports do a good job of ensuring this if you stay in the lane next to the luggage line). When I pickup my luggage I'm super focused to make sure I verify I got back my stuff correctly.

2. My corporate MacBook and iPhone does not allow iCloud account on it. Hence, there is no Find My. But it is tied to corp MDM. If anyone were to find it and try to wipe and install, the MDM will force a profile on it. When I report my laptop is lost, they will put it in lost mode (via MDM) and also remote wipe it. Also, they have loss/theft insurance to cover the cost of the laptop.

3. On my personal MacBook and iPhone, I have had firmware lock (on Intel ones), and always had FileVault (for M1/M2 silicon, this is same as firmware lock) on with recovery key (not iCloud recovery). Recently I have turned on lockdown mode as well. I do have an apple account for Activation Lock, App Store and TV. And I have advanced data protection mode on for this iCloud account and I have disabled iCloud Web. I have recovery key and recovery contact for this iCloud account. I don't want my data on iCloud servers without end to end encryption nor do I want Apple to be able to unlock/wipe my devices without a cryptographic consent from another iDevice I possess. With File Vault on, nobody else who gets my laptop can unlock it or wipe it or reinstall it. On some of my devices, location service is off, so Find My can't show the location but it can still activate lost mode or remote wipe the device.

4. I have both physical sim which is locked and eSIM on my iPhone. And my iPhone is locked with a password. I disable Face ID while traveling.

5. Similarly, I have advanced data protection on my Google accounts.

6. I use physical Yubikeys with pin locks for 2FA.

IIUC spilling liquid in zero-gravity is extremely dangerous.

When you spill on earth, it falls to the floor.

When you spill in space, it floats around and globs up. Then that glob is attracted to, and sticks to, anything that’s hydrophilic. Which happens to include you. More alarmingly, your face.

If I remember correctly there was a recent incident where an astronaut’s dehumidifier in their suit gave out, and they almost drowned in the water being released from their own body (breath, sweat, etc)

I hardly have any UI elements to begin with, it's almost all text. But that's also largely besides the point, which was more that window borders only matters beyond visual separation in the first place because of a UI paradigm that wants you to hunt for a specific place on the edge of the window in order to move or resize it, but it doesn't need to be like that at all.
If you can identify the half that was written to have been written, rather than to be read, yes, delete it. Nobody is getting any value from it anyway.

Yeah, I run my monitor at 20% brightness, unless for watching movies. Then I change to 50%. Wish it would had presets.

This is the better way. The redirection happens inside the server. Rack Attack runs early in the request processing and says "do the rest of the processing as if the client's request were for a page that does not exist", then the server acts accordingly.
Because of this one extreme case that will almost certainly never affect you, that you can easily work around, you should abandon all the other benefits of 'buying Apple'?

Short term cheap, but long term very expensive. I stopped using CISCO after the first time, but I will never know how my current vendor deals with these things either because it's not as if this gear comes with full source code attached and even if it did I wouldn't have the resources to audit it.

But inside CISCO even the most basic code review should have caught this, besides that even for test purposes they should have never ever implemented this.
You can also use almost the complete set of Microsoft tools in the browser now.
They might wish but the fundamentals of Linux (to borrow a term from finance) might be stronger here. What if Linux had a Windows subsystem instead so one could run windows apps securely and without the adware?
I started a Bachelor's in CS in 2019, graduated in 2022 at age 38, and got a dev job that I really enjoy. I was one of the older students (but not the oldest!) and it felt like half the class was older than your typical university student.

I had only had fairly low skilled jobs (and lots of unemployment) earlier in life. I even dropped out of college when I was younger, just like you. I definitely graduated at just the right time, but I think that it can be done, and it's not as weird anymore to go back to school when you're older.

I was extremely motivated because I felt like it was my last shot, and I knew that I really enjoyed programming after doing a couple of MOOCs and such.
Not my experience at all.

Was able to do latency-sensitive gaming like VR gaming from a Shadow PC 200 miles away. Have happily streamed PC games to my phone whilst out and about on 4G networks. I suppose if you're comparing it to 4K ultra quality local gaming you might find it much worse, but for someone who only has a MacBook Pro I found it performed significantly better to stream the game from a PC elsewhere than to try to run Mac native versions of games – and also just let me open up high quality games very quickly from many devices without having to mess around with cables and device drivers and all that stuff.

My partner streams the Xbox games to her Surface laptop which is definitely not powerful enough to play them natively.

That said I know it's still fairly niche, but I think it has a shot of tapping into a much broader casual market than e.g. PC gaming and consoles which require people to already care enough to do a big upfront investment.

>"If the docs differ from the code, I'm left to figure out which is right."

That's a good thing! It makes you think about what is actually the truth. If there was only code, you could easily get the wrong assumption silently. You wouldn't be confused, but you would also be wrong..... when the code and documentation doesn't match, you have to expend brainpower to figure out what's going on. This is a good thing, it also helps you learn:)
Yes. I usually change laptops once every say 6-7 years. This is why four years ago I decided to buy a maxed-out 16" MacBook Pro with 64GB so that it should keep me for at least 8 years or more.

But it seems not to be the case.
It shows no jamming over Ukraine.

However, since the map actually shows the percentage of flights reporting low-navigation accuracy, what it really means is that there are no normal air traffic over Ukraine.
Yes, that is what it normally means. But: the stock market has effects far beyond the stock market itself and Flexport supplies enough companies that are listed that their status can have significant effect. That's why you see publications like the Wall Street Journal reporting on them.
Those are UK branches of US companies. I still don't know why UK judges would have any say in US internal matters.
I much prefer that when I connect my gf's headphones to my phone, or vice versa, or anything to anything, they just work. There is no excuse for this. It's ridiculous to even contemplate really.

How come over the last idk 40 years since portable electronics with headphones have been around, I never had any such calamity that my headphones got confused with someone else's? Oh right, they weren't $200 for no reason for one thing so who tf cared if it ever did happen, and there were 6000 different companies and models and styles instead of everyone in the world having the exact same thing.

I use bspwm, which is still not easy for beginners though not as extreme as dwm, but it's also kinda besides the point which is that a lot of the complaints about borders really are complaints about the difficulty of moving and resizing windows or otherwise manipulating rhem, and once you look at it from that point of view there are alternative solutions, one of which is this one.
