It's a river, a town, a religious icon, a name in Spain and then, when conquistadores from the area went to Mexico, they named another town, another icon... Nuestra Señora de Guadalupe is the patron saint of Mexico, so it's a big thing there.

That pronunciation is not so bad. Source: I'm a native Spanish speaker and dated a Guadalupe for years :)

Oh yeah, totally agree on that point. Apple always does these "shot on iPhone" things that just don't look anything like my videos. But I also have never once been bothered enough by it to put my videos through editing software/color correction/etc. So I can't really complain.

I think it does still highlight that you can take this device far, almost as far as you'd ever need to. I think most people making videos are doing it for youtube and social, they would invest in a few smaller accessories that would cover 80% of the needs and would never need to use all of what Apple had at their disposal (the SpaceCam rig is excessive, a lot can be done with amateur/affordable gimbles and rigs). So, it's selling the fact that it's a good starter device for budding videographers (plenty of room for you can grow into it). But also not likely to convert pros away from whatever they're already using.
That's too charitable. People's usual motivation to complain about "virtue signaling" is that they personally are amoral pieces of garbage, and would prefer that other people not punish amoral-piece-of-garbageness in any way, because they would find that inconvenient.
But should you be able to totally escape from scrutiny? To me it seems very wrong to deny a child the opportunity to learn the things they'd need to function in society like reading, math, and science. Most homeschooling parents are teaching these things to there kids, but there are some who aren't. That ought to be stopped.
Will it continue to expand? This article makes the case that the large increase in 2020 was driven by temporary pandemic conditions, and explicitly not by politics or school quality. The graph shows it has already started to decline. Longer-term data shows a small peak in 2012 followed by a slow decline until the pandemic: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d21/tables/dt21_206.10.a.... In the article's district lookup tool, most districts follow this same pattern of a pandemic spike that begins to decline, whether you pick a stereotypically liberal or conservative district.
That's already way more than you need to beat the iPhone. The iPhone can't even capture 4k 60fps ProRes on device - you need to connect an external recording device to use that.

Also note that, according to its datasheet, the iPhone cannot capture video on its tiny 48MP sensor at that resolution at all - just 4k.
It depends on the level of government and their sovereignty. If the government controls it's own currency, the purpose of taxes is not to pay for expenses, but to provision the government, create a demand for that currency, and create markets. Sovereign governments are in a perpetual state of deficit on purpose.

Governments in the Eurozone are not Sovereign because they don't have control over the currency and must use taxes to pay government expenses.

US states and cities also must use taxes to pay for government expenses.

So the real answer is complex, it depends on whether you are a sovereign government or not.
Anecdotally I have worked in government roles and have been rewarded extremely well for saving taxpayer money, to the point where I felt it was too much at times. It really all dials down on the common denominator, which is the boss or manager. I've learned over the years in both the private and public world that if a manager is not willing to go out of their way to reward their great employees, it's time to move on to the next role.
Some improvements are in flight.

It was explained to me that they have to do the "tour" model (which is a minimum of 1 year, up to 4 years) because it is the only way they can bypass the usual lengthy government hiring process.
That's whose goal? It certainly isn't the goal of billionaires and people that run the country. By in large, their goal is to be rich and powerful: to have power over other people. You don't get that by eliminating the need to work.

It would take an incredible amount of altruism to share your goal, and you don't become a billionaire by being altruistic.
This V7 model is much better than the V2 model that we previously open-sourced. And Q4 quantization would also likely have a large detrimental impact.

Kafka is amazing for what it is made for, but it doesn't seem to solve the query problem for past states. For example, if there is some intermediary details related to the "in-progress" state that will get overwritten once the job transitions into the "complete" state (or "error" state) then that is non-trivial to query from Kafka.

Even in you decide to keep those intermediary states in the main table then there are other niggles, like retries. If a job gets picked up and fails then I might write to an `error_details` column in the main table. However, if I have retries and the job fails a couple of times then only the latest error details are in the main table. If I want to reconstruct the history of the job I have to somehow retrieve each error event for that job from my append only log. And now I'm querying across systems and combining the data in the application tier.

I'm not saying these aren't solvable problems or that there doesn't exist tools already that can achieve what I'm talking about. Engineers love to say "why don't you just ..." for almost any conceivable problem. What I mean to say is that we seem to be separating things into different systems (append only logs vs. rdbms) which feel like they might be more tightly related. rdbms are like one half and append only logs are the other half. Maybe one day those halves will be combined.
Even the BMD camera app — at least the version that's publicly available — can't work around those limitations. It still records footage in VFR.
> A few years later I also pulled a similar prank on my uncle, who bought a new CD player. He asked me and my cousin to set it up and we found a remote in the box. We told him it was voice activated and we used the remote while he asked it to play/pause/skip. Again for a few moments he thought it was the coolest thing ever until our disappointing reveal.

When I first got a Pixel phone with the fingerprint sensor on the back, I told my father that the phone responded to voice commands to unlock, but it only would listen to my voice. I demonstrated by telling it "unlock" (and pressing the sensor on the back) and then locked it and handed it to him to try to unlock it, and it was amusing to watch him say "unlock!" in amazement a few times before I showed him how it actually worked.

Ironically, a couple years later, I ended up getting a Google Home smart speaker and showed him it, and he was reluctant to use voice commands to try it out at first (possibly due to being wary of being tricked again). He ended up having fun seeing how it would respond to silly phrasings of questions though; I think his favorite was when he told it "Play that funky music, white cylinder!" and it obediently started playing "Play That Funky Music" by Wild Cherry.
you would throw out hundreds of years of copyright law on a whim. This is economic suicide for independent creatives. The most tragic part of this is that creatives themselves, immersed in creativity, see no rhyme or reason to stop the flow. Over time, those that grow old or weak are discarded with no rights to their own work. Yes, it is that bad.
What "different" schools allow parents to do is pull the top 1% of lucky students out to escape. Maybe most of the parents in the low cost of living areas can't give any time to their children because they've got three jobs, but there are always going to be the few that can. The same goes for a few who can one way or another afford private school. It's better that three percent get through than none.
Yes, a phone is a small part of the cost in this set up.

An actual film camera instead can be much, much more per day.

In reality no one other than apple is going to have high end professional light rigs and a phone camera. But plenty of people could use the money they aren't spending on a "proper" camera on better lighting instead and perhaps get a better final product than the historical configuration of "we've spent a tonne renting the camera, let's see if we can afford any lighting".
The thing that bugs me about the magic community is the sentiment that “the trick is better when you don’t know how it works.” It’s obviously understandable to protect your secrets to make your performances harder to copy or even to license them to other magicians, but don’t tell me that I will enjoy the trick less if I know how it worked! I assure you that is not the case!

For clarity, this page is not misleading. I loved reading it, to be honest, and I love seeing the advances.

But he rest of Apple's marketing around things like this is much more "look at the videos you can create with just an iPhone and a Mac".

I didn't say it's dangerous to boot off a degraded array. I said it's dangerous to boot off a degraded array normally. Mounting it degraded but read-only is reasonable, because that prevents silently writing new data without the level of redundancy the user previously requested.

There's nothing terrible about advice against responding to a drive failure by putting the system into an even more precarious state without user interaction.

You might own your house, but if you stop paying taxes, you will, somehow, lose ownership of it. The same thing applies here.

There is no such thing as absolute property. Legal entities can confiscate and expropriate whatever they think they should, regardless of ownership. Everything is fluid and exists on sufferance. If you want absolute irrevocable control, use a darknet, like .onion.

> I don't think you've really thought this through. How would someone make millions off of that? If someone tried, the original author is still offering it for free. Why would someone pay for it?

Tens of millions of fans of a living celebrity would pay for it and the fans do not care about the original author as long as it is the celebrity's name that is selling it and can claim it as their own.

They don't need to give credit or sources to whatever their selling to generate millions.

Home schooling is also the worst form of education, only second to no education.
It does still matter for people using low-end computers. My MacBook's screen cracked while on vacation recently and I had to buy an emergency laptop. I picked up a device with a Celeron 6305 and 4GB of RAM. I loaded up Firefox like I normally do, and it was so slow and laggy to the point it was unusable.

I then switched over to Edge and it performed significantly faster, and was using less of the 4GB of RAM. I was surprised at how significant the difference was, but there was no denying it. Edge performs much better than other browsers on low-end PC's.
It honestly doesn’t matter. We’re talking about hundreds of millions of devices sending data in either case. A hundred million more provides no additional value.

Isn't the utility of the cycler that it can be a massive object with a lot of shielding for humans and permanently installed life support systems? Like a big space station for whole crews to live safely and comfortably while in transit.

You (incrementally) build up a large cycler in parts, each part accelerated to the orbit once.

Once the cycler is large, it seems infeasible to burn fuel to periodically adjust the orbit since it's massive. Unless propellant less stuff like light sails can be used over long periods.
You likely know this, but keep in mind the kind of selection bias in taking feedback mostly from your own users. The number of times I've heard product designers claim that their users prefer some aspect of how their application already works, ignoring the fact that the users who didn't prefer it have left and hence are likely not available to survey.

It's constantly going to be with us. These systems weren't "put into place" they generated "higher profits" when implemented. As such, the people profiting from their existence are willing to use some of those profits in preventing the advantages of technological advancement from reaching the populations they currently enjoy power over.

This is part of the reason why business monopolies are social poison.
I'd say that it's rather used as a device for underscoring how important the previous passage was, skimming an article it breaks up the monotonity of recounting so that the reader gets a slight pause to reflect on why the break is there and connect it to the obvious lie just presented before.
Average Cali salary is 73k. Assume an employee stays for 2 years (I just made this number up, I have no idea what the average retention for a remote worker is, but it’s probably more). It would barely represent 1% of total renumeration for the employee. “Significant” is not a word I’d use to describe a 1-2% cost to an employer.

There's plenty of theories out there as to why the WiiU didn't do as well as other consoles. I have my own, which centers around the Switch's eventual release, and what Nintendo wanted to make vs. what they could achieve at the time. My guess is that the dream of making the Switch was very alive at the time, but the hardware was not quite ready. A pivot to still incorporate the design DNA, but also save on iteration costs was likely made to keep development cheaper, hence the second revision of the CPU and GPU platform that we saw from the Wii and the GameCube before it. Because this stopgap console wouldn't be the new design they wanted, and they were iterating on the Wii platform, there was a decision to call the new console the "WiiU". This smells of "makes sense in the engineering department, but not to marketing".

As a result, die hards (admittedly, like myself) were happy to purchase the console, and were willing to get read up on the differences, but capturing the casual, and probably more importantly, the parent audience, who remarkably during the NES -> SNES transition were adamant about not purchasing a new console because "they already have one" didn't understand that, while there was backwards compatibility, the console was certainly capable of standing on its own. It would have offered neat experiences with games like Breath of the Wild taking advantage of the WiiU gamepad with screen, and otherwise been easy to write software for as an existing developer on the previous platforms. It would have been a quite fine stopgap release if it had been marketed appropriately.
Their version of "Buzz Saw" follows that formula. Sawing a person in half is one of the most exposed tricks of all time. So they turn that on its head by exposing several principles employed in the classic method only to pull the rug out from under you with a gory surprise ending. Man I love Penn & Teller so much.
Firefox is definitely on par with Chrome these days, so if you’re seeing issues like this, I would first suspect that it’s the web sites you have loaded in those 50+ open tabs instead of the browser itself. So many sites use bad JavaScript and that’s often what causes the problems.
RevenueCat's data-caching techniques for 1.2B daily API requests
24 years ago, my then startup bought about 60,000 domain names. For many.of the TLDs in question it represented the largest chunk of income they'd had. We had about $1m in funding at that stage.

Put another way: Many of these TLDs bring in little enough that it'd likely take a really small funding round to go to some of these registries and make them a nice offer to tighten rules so that e.g. all registrants outside the country needs a licensed representative in the country, and convince them to license only you.

I wasn't homeschooled and it's not legal to do it in my country even, so I have a bias. That being said it seems weird to me that parents in the US seem to consider that they "own" their kids to a much bigger degree than some places in Europe at least. I don't have kids but I think most parents around me growing up had a sense that their kid also belongs "to society" in a way, and going to school and learning about what society "wants you to" is expected, in the same way you also are just simply required to vaccinate and that's it, because you also "belong to society" in some way other than just belonging to your parents.

I wonder how much of the whole debate is mostly about difference of opinions between people on both sides of this specific subject rather than the ones the media focuses on.
