I don't agree that you need to be rich to properly care for a dog, but you do need to understand and accept the commitment it takes.

One thing that can help a lot is remote work. That means you can avoid expenses like hiring a dog walker or sitter because you can be there with your dog. As for the vacation part, my wife and I solve that by simply taking our dogs with us. That does restrict what you can do; we personally don't care because we don't take the kind of vacations where having dogs along would be a problem.

"loved by millions"? In all my years in the IT sector, I'm not sure I've ever met anyone who actually loved Windows.

When you force people to come into the doctor for things they don't actually need an in-person visit for, you're making a lot of them drive there, and driving has risk of serious injury or death. You're also putting them in a room with other patients, some of whom will have contagious illnesses. Probably most importantly, you're causing some of them, who don't have the time or transportation to get to a doctor's office, to miss out on getting health care entirely.

Pretty cool. [+NSArray alloc] isn't auto-released so it needs to be released but it doesn't need to be retained.
Because people are buying dogs way too big for their homes and then they don't take them for walks or exercise them. I live a few doors down from a doctor and he drives a $100k+ Mercedes, but I've never once seen anyone in his family take their German shepherd for a walk. Pets are just accessories for some people. Then when their dogs get bored and start chewing things up, digging holes, or generally doing dog things people decide to just drug their animal and tranquilize them rather than give them more exercise or find a better outlet for their animal's energy.

Has anyone done a perf / watt scatterplot of the current AMD and Apple offerings?

I'd guess this wins in absolute performance (due to the TDP), but I've heard AMD is pretty competitive on energy efficiency too these days. I'm typing this on an M2, which is simultaneously cooler and faster than my old Intel laptop.

Wondering if it's time to upgrade my decade-old Intel Linux desktop to an AMD yet.

The funny thing is, every level of government acknowledges it was CHEAPER to provide stable housing, than to deal with the problems which come with life on the streets.

It's analogous to diversion programs for drug crime: keeping people locked up is ruinously expensive compared to keeping them out of the prison system in the first place.

Discord, by dent of having no clear path to profitability, must get creative in how it captures value from its assets — namely, user data.

How Discord and other “free” (I know they have paid subscribers but they don’t pay the bills) services monetizes will be subject to future developments. Will they run ads? Train AI models? Sell user data? Pipe it straight into NSA servers? Does Discord already do these things?

Being a “free service” means you always have great PR; how can you hold a free service to high standards without being entitled?

This really irks me and maybe it's related to the problems. I have no idea. I love dogs, but have never owned one.

Dogs aren't human.
You are not their parent.

Stop treating them as toddler substitutes. I'd argue that the excessive coddling of pets is abuse.

If you're not killing anything, then probably not. It's not a bad thing to be conscientious of, but if static just isn't a problem for you and you aren't handling super sensitive components, stressing about it isn't terribly productive.
I disagree with this. I’ve had 2 dogs the past 20 years (2 sets of 2 dogs) and they absolutely tire each other out. The chase squirrels together, they chase each other around the house, they play fight. Dogs are used to being part of a pack, I personally think having 2 dogs gives them a more meaningful (doggy) life

Harvard rejects business-school applicants who hacked site (2005)
One of our dogs came from a previous human who, we can infer, did not treat her very nicely. She was on Prozac when she arrived, but we have since weaned her off. To this day, when someone -- particularly a woman, but even another dog or a cat -- threatens or appears to threaten her bed or her food, there can be much growling, baying, and baring of teeth. For this reason we have learned to prevent my wife and the dog from occupying the human bed at the same time, and she has become quite obedient of the command "get off the bed".

Other than that, she is doing well, a loved and happy dog. We are grateful for the opportunity to show this creature what it's like to be loved by humans over the long term. We hope to get her in front of a behaviorist to figure out how we can ease her anxiety further -- without drugs.

It’s pretty much collectivism vs individualism.

The West has mostly leaned towards individualism (aka “it's a free country”) while the East Asia under the influence of Confucianism is most collective.

Collectivism has its downsides. It can be suffocating. Society also doesn’t always take into consideration an individual’s limitations when it comes to meeting societal obligations - a moot point in more individualistic societies.

I like my dog, but I don't plan to ever own another. Besides money, she costs a lot in time and convenience. Food and water. Walk her morning (feel bad if I sleep in too long), noon, and night. Brush her and vacuum often (sheds a lot). Clip her nails frequently (which is a struggle), or her feet will hurt. Give her a bath every couple weeks. Wash her bed. Take her to the vet. Give her monthly prescription meds for fleas/ticks/heartworm. Clean up when she gets sick. If we want to leave home for more than like 8 hours, we have to take her along (if dogs are allowed where we're going) or get a sitter. It's all manageable, but personally, I would just rather not have the responsibility, even for a dog that's not high maintenance. And I'm not sure I like the "dog culture" I live in where the outside of my building always smells like pee, there's pee in the elevator every morning, dog shit appears in random places, people let their big dogs play off leash, dogs left alone spend all day barking, etc...
I made a significant amount of money at once. It ended up destroying a few long term friendships. In hindsight, maybe that was my fault. But human nature is a funny thing, and rapid changes in social status will reap havoc on social equilibriums built over decades

Brisbane's lord Mayor Clem Jones is famous for two things: installing the sewers (before then the city was septic tanks in the main) and digging up the mangroves, which he disliked on aesthetic reasons. Silting became a huge issue in the river and water quality declined overall for complex reasons, but the lack of mangroves definitely affected fish stocks.

Post Clem Jones, the mangroves have mostly recovered, although flooding causes some die-back. Fish stocks are huge, recreational fishing is all up the river, the prawn industry is back in the lower reaches, the river is not crystal clear but its significantly better overall. Bull sharks live in the upper reaches of the city, we see dolphins from time to time, threadfin salmon, eel, and bait fish. Herons, Kingfishers, Pelicans, sea eagles and kites up and down the river.

The city has high(ish) speed commuter catamarans, ploughing up the water from the docks up stream to the university and mangroves help stabilise the banks which suffer badly from the wash (it's not enough, the council deploys gabions and rocks to try and help halt erosion too)

Mangroves are the fish nursery. They're where young fish hide from predators, where eggs hatch, where prawns and mudskippers live. They provide perches for birdlife, and screen the river from the city. Fruitbats live in amongst them too in some of the quieter stretches.
I didn't want to say that, but, you're 100% correct.

Dog trainers do MOST of their work training the trainer.
Despite claims to the contrary, I haven't really seen evidence of this with Tesla. The giga casts have pretty conventional crush structures ahead and behind them. It seems like the kind of crashes that'd cause massive costs are big enough to be massively costly either way.

The Rivian case is a bit of a head scratcher. They made some truly odd choices that are making fairly simple repairs much harder than necessary. It is obvious they are new to this.
I do not see how that is relevant to my statement that formal methods, as required by the higher Common Criteria levels, do not constitute “box-ticking exercises”.

Why Children of Married Parents Do Better
"Kearney says she's not advocating that children live in a household filled with marital tension or where parents are unhappy or mistreating each other. As an economist, she sees marriage as a long-term contract between two individuals to pool their resources and share household responsibilities, including raising children. Two is greater than one. The genders of the parents are irrelevant."
I recently reread The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. It's really worthwhile and there's a lot of stuff people have forgotten.

For a month or two in 1940, Hitler was pushing his military for invasion plans for England. They dutifully came up with "plans." We know it never happened, of course. There was a lot of discussion among the staff.

The staff battles were about the width of the beachhead. Too narrow and the English could overwhelm it before they could break out; too wide and the Germans didn't have the naval forces to defend and resupply it.

Eventually, Hitler decided they could starve out / bomb out England, plus he wanted to invade Russia.
There is no need to start out every article with remedial lessons. It is reasonable for an enthusiast magazine to assume familiarity with how computers work. The average ExtremeTech reader should already know what memory is and how increasing the amount of memory changes (or doesn't change) performance.

It is not possible to give all the systems the same memory configuration. They don't support the same memory and don't have the same number of channels. And I expect giving all the systems 512 GiB of memory would only widen the lead because larger DIMMs are usually slower.

>Do they expect all of their readers to then audit the code of the benchmarking that they are doing to ensure that it cannot possibly be bound by this?

Cinebench is hardly obscure. The average ExtremeTech reader will already know what it is and what it measures.

Yeah... maybe I'm lucky to be from an area where dog ownership is more common and the responsibilities more well known, but it's shocking how many Brooklyn yuppies I know who learned this lesson the hard way.
This is neat. I hadn't seen it before. I'm still convinced that the internet -- and young, first-time programmers -- lost a really valuable tool with Flash. It's a shame they could never get the security paradigm to work. Flash Applets had a lot of capability and a rare low barrier to entry.

It would also help if society didn't encourage people to have kids. Then they could probably afford to take better care of their dogs.

Yes as you say, video games do some of that. There is also the nascent art of 360 videos (sometimes erroneously called “VR videos”). They are developing their own conventions and experimenting with what works and what does not.

As you said, the medium makes it easier to make a movie that still has something new to enjoy on the second or third watch.

Another thing is discovering the best clues to direct the viewer to look where you want them to (sound, light, movement, but also having the other characters look that way).
The Sun's Magnetic Poles Are Vanishing
Working dogs especially require work to feel satisfied. I grew up around red heelers (bred to herd cattle by nipping at their legs, which ours never did) and that instinct easily translates to herding kids or people. They are very bite happy on legs and take serious training and socializing before they are safe to introduce people to. One dog in particular bit most of the people who met him in general. My wife is the only girlfriend of mine he immediately loved when I introduced her. The one before that he was leery of, and the one before that he outright bit. Both ended up cheating on me, while my wife and I have been married 11 years...so honestly he seemed like a good judge of character.
