You can't play this game since you're too ignorant as to the nature of the game. The Win/Linux part is irrelevant in this conversation about whether an argument about MacOS is "dumb and misinformed", and is actually reinforcing the author's point since he also claims it's a common issue across OS

> `sudo csrutil disable` is all it takes to disable SIP and be able to mount the root partition

> Saying macOS is locked down only shows the ignorance of the person saying it.

Oh, the irony of an ignorant calling out the ignorance. It used to be that "simple" (though you still had to waste time figuring out which spread-out junk was safe to delete).

But it isn't that simple any more with the newer OS, it's much more, yes, locked down, since you forgot about that minor crypto-signed thingy called Signed System Volume (SSV) (https://eclecticlight.co/2020/11/30/is-big-surs-system-volum...)

You can check some more complicated setup here https://nektony.com/how-to/uninstall-default-apple-apps-on-m..., but then it's much more involved, but also more risky, and then there are still updates..
As someone who attended two different universities for my undergrad, the first was way harder than the second. Basically, I failed out of my first, and cruised through my second. I intentionally selected a much lower ranked university for my second attempt. I felt like I was buying a university degree at my second place. And, yes, both were ACM accredited. It means little.

What I am noticing on all threads about HN hiring: Hiring knowledge workers is fundamentally a difficult, fuzzy process. Few want to admit it. And, there are some people are naturally much better at it because they can control themselves very well during an interview. People who are very strong at solving puzzles will nearly always outperform during interviews for hands-on roles. More than anything, interviewing feels like dating. Everyone hates it until you find what you are looking for... then it becomes: "Oh, it worked fine for me."
Growth has dropped a lot from triple digits percent to mid double digits. We have years of VC cash at our current burn and we have about -200% EBITDA margins. Seems like we’ll need to cut a LOT of heads to find a path to breakeven if growth doesn’t pick back up in the next 6 months. We’re in the AI space.
Looking at the landing page it appears they are aligning the product with the Diataxis framework (web: Diataxis.fr).

+1. I gave them a try during the pandemic and it led to some knee pain. Thankfully I switched back before causing serious damage. I’m sure that they work well for some people but they can also hurt.
Have you tried cloudron? It's pretty close to phone apps.
Have you got a gamer teenager? I do.

They seem to care a great deal about their hardware and gamer teenagers also seem to spend alot more time analysing hardware and milliseconds performance advantages than anyone else. They literally care about mouse latency in milliseconds.

They spend a huge amount of time on YouTube and online forums talking gaming hardware. If the word on the street is that ARM is milliseconds slower than Intel then they won't buy it. There's lots of huge YouTube channels that do nothing but measure game performance on various hardware.
>Although variability in the cannabis products used, outcomes assessed, and study quality limits the conclusions that can be made, modest reductions in cognitive performance were generally detected with higher doses and heavier lifetime use.

>However, larger methodologically rigorous trials and longitudinal studies that assess cognition prior to the initiation of cannabis use are greatly needed to infer a causal relationship. This need is highlighted by the fact that many negative effects on cognition that were reported by studies in this review decreased after adjusting for confounding variables (e.g., differences in premorbid IQ for users and nonusers).

So heavy lifetime use and high doses may case modest cognitive impairment in older adults... or it is pure correlation, and perhaps older adults seeking strong relief have other things going on prior to heavy cannabis use that also cause cognitive impairment.
Do you consider Google to be responsible for "winner take all" dynamics? I also think they have contributed to it, but my intuition says this dynamics would have happened even without Google. Before Google, there were other dominant search engines and portals.

Disclaimer: I built, tested and now fly a Van's kit so I'm biased. I don't think the FAA is trying to "kill" experimental, at least not with MOSAIC. In fact, my understanding is that there was quite a bit of behind the scenes work between EAA and the FAA on MOSAIC.

MOSAIC doesn't add really enough to the LSA category that would change my mind and "push" me toward it. If I had to make the choice again, I'd still build and operate a kitplane. To me, the major benefits of the E/AB category are: 1. the builder's permission to perform his own annual condition inspections, 2. the owner's permission to perform major maintenance and make modifications, 3. access to bleeding edge avionics and safety systems not available on certified or LSA. I don't think the MOSAIC rulemaking adds any of this to the LSA category[1].

If anything, MOSAIC helps LSAs eat into the market of Part 23 personal aircraft. If I wanted a fairly beefy airplane, didn't want to build, and was trying to decide between a LSA and FAR23 aircraft, I would lean much farther towards the LSA post-MOSAIC.

1: EDIT: Actually, it looks like it's more complex than I thought, and I'm probably wrong. There are actually pathways for folks to obtain repairman certificates for both ELSA and SLSA aircraft. Interesting topic I'll have to dig more into!
Show HN: Ghfetch – Fetch and Display GitHub User Info Like Neofetch
Introducing ghfetch, a simple CLI tool that fetches GitHub user information and displays it in a style similar to neofetch.
Processes get interrupted and rescheduled between tens and hundreds of times per second (depending on OS, the scheduler may take over somewhere between 100 and 2000 Hz, although it doesn't necessarily deschedule every time). This is how SMP works at its most fundamental level. Every time that happens, it involves a full flush from the hardware perspective. It's always context switching, savings the registers, clearing the buffers, etc.

When a process gets descheduled and then later rescheduled, there is no particular reason to reschedule it on the same core it was on previously. Desktop class hardware doesn't have NUMA. Last level caches might have locality-dependent performance characteristics, but this is usually pretty nuanced, wildly variable between hardware microarchitectures, and not accounted for / not worth accounting for in the OS's scheduler, since there's a good chance that data won't be around next timeslice anyway.

Binding a processor to a single core affinity-wise is not changing any of this.

If you really have a throughput-bound process that needs to squeeze every single microsecond of compute and/or you're super latency bound for some reason, you schedule a process with what's called realtime priority, which changes the scheduling decision of WHEN to deschedule it. Not every operating system has equivalent mechanisms for this, but that's more in line with the phenomena that you're describing. But a process may well cause itself to be descheduled anyway by doing something that puts it to sleep. You have no control over this.

In reality, looking at which core a process is on is mostly the wrong way to be thinking. You're looking at this on a 1-2 second window (the amount of time it takes for Activity Monitor / Task Manager to update its UI). A full second of time is an absolute eternity to a process. Large amounts of work happen on the order of microseconds and quicker. And in that 1-2 second snapshot that Activity Monitor or Task Manager gave you, the process probably spent time on EVERY core -- and you're just seeing wherever it was in the brief moment when Activity Monitor / Task Manager updated its UI.

> gamers have been binding to single processors/cores for years for that reason, it's a huge cause of microstutter type behaviors

It wouldn't be the first time gamers prescribed placebo tweaks because of magical type thinking.
When I found out Mike Acton had left Unity a while back, I knew they were headed for a downfall. Granted, it may have just been to take break, but he was at Insomniac for a very long time before then so it seemed very odd.
One of the biggest advantages of MSW, is that you can use the same mock server in your unit tests (jest) on Node.js environment and run the full frontend in the Browser for development and preview.

The best if you have totally the same mock data, so super easy to debug your tests.

Also, you can use this trick to have scenarios, so you can demo different behaviours just by passing a query param. QA loves it as well.

> After all, pilots and passengers generally want, other things equal, to be safe, so an unfettered free market will deliver cost-effective safety-improving innovations over time.

Ah, such optimistic belief in the "unfettered free market"! That might be true, but aircraft operators mostly want to make as much money as possible, so if the choice is between a cost-effective safety-improving innovation and an even more cost-effective non-innovation (i.e. not doing anything), they will choose the latter.

They have recent relevant experience with remote controlled aircrafts. Which was an great hobby for many decades. And suddenly it's not.
FoxIt does zoom on Ctrl+Scroll, and Pan on Left Click+Drag. Runs on Mac and I'd assume linux.

Close enough?

I assume if you REALLY want to go nuclear on it, there is some shareware app that will let you do per-app keyboard emulation and rebind inputs "in flight" or something.

I believe https://www.keyboardmaestro.com/main/ is the standard solution.

> today's insanely powerful hardware you should not ever be constrained in your programs to ever have to consider setting core affinity

That is wrong in HPC environment.

Most programs tailored for HPC will set core affinity manually.
And they have very good reason to do so (cache affinity, memory bindings).

The correct abstraction depend of your domain. There were indeed very little incentive up to know to play with core affinity and the scheduler in a classical desktop environment.

The story is different on systems with strong constraints on efficiency.
Thanks for sharing I'm definitely going to read into it a bit, and I'll be the first to admit I don't know much about South American economics nor have I spent a lot of time there.I definitely haven't bought anything expensive there. As I said in a previous comments this was sometime ago, but I would say that if a bunch of carriers were selling their allotment of phones to US markets it could lead to the scenarios that you are depicting. If it's easier to offload to the US market expensive phones than reasonably there would have to be a big incentive to keep them in market which would inflate costs to be higher than US markets. I can't speak to the tariff issues though that could hurt my argument. It may be a lesser evil at the end of the day who is it for me to say. I just didn't feel right about it.
Apparently it doesn't. From what I read, relative humidity is maximum possible humidity divided by actual humidity (probably not the correct terms), whereas vapor pressure deficit is maximum possible minus actual. Fraction versus difference. So the same vapor pressure deficit could correspond to 80% relative humidity at one temperature, and 85% relative humidity at a higher temperature.

>Why do some countries develop and others not?

Somebody, somewhere needs to have a progress mindset.

And most everybody else needs to have behaviors that do not inhibit that progress. Or even worse, reverse it.

>Why did New York develop and Mississippi did not?

Maybe the same reason Vermont is not as metropolitan as New York either. With Mississippi it could be because New Orleans was already there.

Education can be important. Perhaps an unbroken chain of near-universal multi-generational emphasis on formal education can be hard to compare to any other way.

This seems unfortunate, surely they could sufficiently sandbox the decoder
I think it’s slightly more complex than that. Apple included in their processor design custom extensions to ARM that alter things like memory order to make emulation easier [1]. It’s not just control over the software stack that makes Rosetta so performant.

If you're including a video codec in a phone app, you are almost certainly making a terrible mistake. Android and iOS have very comprehensive media APIs.
Its very puzzling, my understanding is most people use Google analytics anyway, and anyone serious about it pays them. Do they think they can extract more money from this sector or something? Surely they are the market leaders, unless something changed while I wasn't looking.

Imagine that - you pay Google for analytics and they tell you "oh, its a bunch of people using our free proxy service. It's extra to find out more." Seems real fishy.
This is a general result. For example, ChatGPT struggles hard with following lexical, syntactic, or phonetic constraints in prompts due to the tokenization scheme - see https://paperswithcode.com/paper/most-language-models-can-be...

LLMs + Diffusors are super charged when using techniques like constraints, controlnet, regional prompting, and related techniques.
I am not an "older person" and I was smoking bud a few decades ago, thank you very much. Some of the stuff I got back then was categorically better than a great deal of the dispensary bud found today. Some of the cannabis cup winning strains from the mid 90's to mid 2000's would beat the pants off of the vast majority of mega-THC, mass produced strains sold in your average pot shop in terms of pleasant qualitative effects. It's wonderful to be able to take a few hits and hit the perfect high.. you smoke less bud, experience more of the pleasant effects with less of the mind-numbing, paranoia, and other unpleasant side-effects. In the 70's (and still today with trash-tier cannabis) people had to smoke tons to get any effect. I have done this with Mexican brick weed (purchased in Mexico). It is just straight up an inferior experience, there is nothing more safe or beneficial to smoking a butt load of crappy weed in order to get high.

Also, it's kind of a myth that cannabis was terrible back in the 70's. A lot of it was, don't get me wrong. But selective breeding and sophisticated indoor growing techniques were developing at that time, so it was possible to get pretty damn good bud if you happened to know the right people. There is still plenty of outdoor 'Mexican brick weed' going around these days just like it was back in the 70's, and it's pure trash. And there is plenty of mediocre bud masquerading as "top shelf" going around today (including strains in dispensaries advertising astronomical and dubious THC percentages). As ever it takes a lot of time, expertise, equipment, and capital to produce truly great bud.

Now if you start talking about distillates and concentrates, that is one area in which I agree there is a notable difference in usage patterns and negative effects. It's kind of comparable to turning cocaine into free-base IMO.

>I personally know someone in their early 20 who experienced a major psychotic event following regular heavy use of cannabis

This is the classic timeframe for psychosis to develop. Despite millions of gov dollars spent trying to prove a connection, there is no evidence that cannabis causes psychosis:

Cannabis and Psychosis: a Critical Overview of the Relationship

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26781550/

>Evidence reviewed here suggests that cannabis does not in itself cause a psychosis disorder. Rather, the evidence leads us to conclude that both early use and heavy use of cannabis are more likely in individuals with a vulnerability to psychosis.

I don't use at all anymore, btw, so I'm definitely not a cannabis evangelist or any such. Just throwing in my two cents.
This kind of hyper-masculine "men need to feel powerful" stuff is pure patriarchy. So much of this stuff is societal, not biological, and yet it's presented as truth.

Highly recommend _The Will to Change: Men, Masculinity, and Love_ by bell hooks, if you're looking for a book about Men's suffering that actually looks at how men need to be cared for and loved. @watchfulcoyote on tiktok also has really great content, if you want something more shortform and digestible.

"Government has exactly the same ability to hire people as the private sector"

Yes, by paying more. What you're saying is that government should just be another market player.

Which causes inflation.

That's a fallacy of composition. Government is too big to do that.

There's nothing contrarian in what I'm saying. What I'm saying is look at it from the other point of view. If government increases the taxes on employers at a particular salary band then it will not be able to hire so many staff at that salary band. They will then take the government's shilling at the price on offer.

Which is how you solve the staffing problem in the NHS. By taxing the private healthcare providers at the relevant salary band until the NHS becomes fully staffed.

"more actually; it has a broader revenue base"

Government doesn't have a revenue base at all. Governments spend by printing money and tax by shredding money.

The little silver coins going into a big chest mental model isn't how it actually works. There are no little silver coins and there is no chest.

It's just debits and credits.

"when unemployment shoots up governments in most developed countries have the obligation to pay lots of people unemployment benefits for , not working"

Well there's a simple solution to that. Pay them to work instead. Backwards to what you are suggesting.

Which will then, remarkably, start acting as a spend-side auto stabiliser which means we can dispense with interest rate changes...

Artroom.ai is a great option. Free image generation feature, plus a ton of editing features like layers, zoom out etc.

I received a 3 day In School Suspension during the 7th grade for "breaking" one of the computers in the library/school computer lab. What I had done was change the color scheme of the task bar/windows.

Interesting read. I was very surprised by the mention of adding editing features at the end. That sounds like a proverbial black hole of potential feature requests and "bloat".
