Some people have experienced downsides you might want to know about.

For example as you passed 2016-2019, not only did you have the butterfly keyboard mess but each generation reportedly got hotter and thus louder.

My 2015 was quieter/cooler than my 2019.

So if you’re happy it may turn out that even though the newer machine has better performance it feels like a downgrade for other reasons.

(I don’t think that’s the case here)
oh absolutely, I can't wait to see the benchmarks. Per the (non-numerical data) benchmarks in the video tho - it is faster. So... until other evidence presents itself, that's what we have to go on.
It should still be able to run an up to date web browser though, right?

If one is that concerned about someone exploiting an OS level security flaw to exfiltrate their online banking credentials (wildly unlikely), they should just be doing that stuff in a VM or similarly isolated environment anyways.
Does HN have the SLA and uptime that the startup signed with their clients and will half an hour of downtime sink HN?
4.5k monitor, 4480x2250. The extra area around a 4K viewport and the M3 could make these into decent editing machines.
I've been trying to leave my current gig for the last 9+ months. It's tough to find the right roles these days
Heh. Bit too high of a bar. Even if it helps to develop boo about 9000 that's fun to prooomt for a while, I think it's fair game
How often do you travel? Optimize for the typical case.
> its target market is more likely

I dont know about this part. Whoever wanted to BYOD has been using MacBook Pros. Vast majority of 27" iMac users seems to want to get another large iMac.

And there aren't even great monitor choices. Studio display costs as much as a low end iMac used to cost. Samsung Ultrafine is horrible (if its even still produced). And other 3rd party monitors usually don't have 5k at 27".
Haven't heard of Hickam's dictum before, thanks!

I see how it makes sense, given it comes from medicine - the very field dedicated to literally the single most complex system we know of: the human body. But I don't see it as an opposite to Occam's razor - rather, a missing lower bound. That is, I see Hickam's dictum as a reminder that some hypotheses may be too simple.

My guess at how one would formalize this is, when you're comparing hypotheses explaining something in a given domain (such as "behavior of things being thrown", or "health of a human body"), there is a level of complexity inherent to the domain. A hypothesis that's so simple as to fall below that level is too simple - it doesn't have enough bits to express what's happening within the domain. The further below the complexity threshold it is, the more likely it is to be falsified by new evidence. In contrast, hypotheses above the domain complexity level are all capable of explaining the domain fully; however, the more complex a hypothesis, the more likely it is to be at least partially wrong.

This gives us the following takes:

- Occam's razor: for hypotheses above the domain complexity threshold, the least complex one is most likely to be true.

- Hickam's dictum: your hypothesis is way below the domain complexity threshold - which you didn't notice, because you don't appreciate how complex the domain is in the first place.

Reconciliation:

- The closer a hypothesis is to the domain complexity level, the more likely it is to correctly explain new evidence. The best hypothesis matches the complexity of the domain. Above it, hypotheses gain superfluous parts, which are either redundant (unlikely), or wrong (very likely). Below it, hypotheses are always wrong - they're too simple to account for all possible predictions, so new evidence will eventually falsify them. The tricky part is - even though we both postulate hypotheses and define their domain, we tend to hand-wave the latter a lot, so in some cases (like medicine) we may not realize that our hypotheses are too simple.
? Imma be shocked if theres a basis to this, for real
Maybe you should be asking the people at Kagi about this ...
It would depend on workload. On my old intel MacBook, I was looking at an hour or so to build, and it could only complete one build on the battery if that. Testing took a similarly absurd amount of time.

The M1 dropped both times by in the region of 30 minutes, could do multiple rounds on a single charge and didn't make a tonne of noise while doing so.

The amount of time savings you get from the improved CPU perf is quantifiable, and you can assign a monetary amount to that time.

Now if your use case is not performance (cpu, battery, etc) limited then of course there's no reason to upgrade, ever really, but that would apply to any laptop or pc not just Macs.

> Story points stand for the size of the task, regardless of its nature. Like for distance, it equals velocity by time

The size depends on the doer regardless of how you measure it my friend. Measuring in abstractions or human-hours does not make a difference.

Yes it is just like distance = velocity * time. It measures the velocity or the time but not the distance, which is unknown until the feature is completed :)
Cloud services could make this really easy to game nowadays
This article is pretty late to the party. PE was fueled by low interest rates, so at this point, I wouldn't be surprised if it's in decline.
The iMac screen is actually not as good as the MacBook Pro screen; it's only 60hz and I think it's less HDR.
Hi, I didn't totally understand your writing.

One reason why a lot of things are comorbid: generally, few mental things have "a single gene" but are manifestations of many gene differences and nature.

One reason why a lot of things are comorbid is just that more people are a little something than a lot something, and people who get diagnosed for one thing are more likely to have resources and reasons to be diagnosed for another something.

After rereading your msg, I'm concerned you're looking for some sort of thing like "If I'm sufficiently good at X I can't be Y"

I don't think these things work this way. Many folks on the spectrum share some social skills weaknesses, but social skills challenges are not really what makes them on the spectrum.

In all, all models wrong - some models useful. An attitude of viewing these things from the lens of asking if they help you understand yourself and navigate the world is probably best. I was really worried with labels before I kept repeating to myself 'all models wrong, some models useful'

Depression, ADHD, autism, all models. All 'wrong'.Still, useful sometimes. They aren't meant to be the be all end all though, and they only sometimes (maybe often) accurately represent reality, which is a bit of a silly statement, since there isn't one reality to it all.

There we go, I got more confusing sorry :)
Well, you mention you mainly care for feature set. What kind of feature is body color that would affect functionality. In fact I feel any kind of scratch would be worse on space black as compared to gray or silver.
> It's the difference between drag-dropping a reference between "projects" or whatnot in your monolith project, or coming up with a publish pipeline after which your merged code gets into the repo so that other people can use it

You already have that pipeline for release/deployment though, don't you? (And it's already hooked up to your SSO or what have you).

> if you have three projects in three checkouts that all have to be coordinated and merged in order so that you don't accidentally break your environment and worry about security and and and....

It's the same as any other library dependency though, which is a completely normal thing to deal with. The cost of separating your pieces enough that you can use different versions of a library in different services is that you can use different versions of a library in different services.

I'm skeptical about microservices as a deployment model, but I'm absolutely convinced that code-level modularisation and independent release cycles for things that deploy independently are worthwhile, at least if your language ecosystem has decent dependency management.
> It's easy to understand: large orgs are competing against other large orgs that are similarly inefficient, because efficiency in a large org is a really, really, really hard human problem that we simply haven't solved.

We used to break up companies that became Too Large. Either they became so large that it was impossible to compete against them (as Large Company can demand way better pricing on volume than Small Startup can or has way better access to financial instruments due to better ratings, or like many automotive companies even run their own goddamn bank), or because they could use a wildly profitable business to price-dump competitors out of existence or because they became so large that they felt free to extort their customers to the tune the people would complain about it in the media/their congresspeople too much, or because they became so large their sheer size represented too much economic risk ("too big to fail").

We should begin doing that again. Something as big as Google/Alphabet, Apple, Amazon, Meta/Facebook, Walmart, the Big Four consultancy shops, virtually all major banks - there's absolutely no reason these should be allowed to exist at their current size. Or, if these companies still wish to exist at their size / their existence as one platform, they at least have to be regulated to mitigate the threat originating from that scale.
The politicians (not bureaucrats: bureaucrats don't make policy) aren't making these laws up all by themselves: they're responding to the whims of the voters.

Jim Crow laws were "fair and just" at the time, according to most people of the time; that's why the laws existed. The people wanted them (well, the majority who had political power anyway, obviously not the Black people). "Fair and just" is simply an opinion, and according to the people at that time, those shitty laws were fine. They weren't getting their morality from lawmakers; the people at the time simply had bad morals.
> Workers (and therefore unions) are very much interested in companies being successful.

For some definition of "successful", yes. But their definition won't necessarily be the same as the definition used by the company's owners or management.
I am likely a bit "on the spectrum myself" but have also had pretty good success socially in general. I was a super awkward kid and then worked hard on it. Maybe my self-assessment is off, I dunno.

But anyway....

I use pattern matching in my head to develop patterns for specific people!

I don't know if this is, in principle, that different from what neurotypicals do? I think it's typically harder for those on the spectrum, perhaps especially so when it comes to initial encounters. Or maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're saying?
Didn't Apple start shipping water cooled overclocked CPUs just to get some sort of a speed bump when the CPUs topped out? Was that the G5 you mentioned?
I have 8GB, it does web dev work just fine.
So there's no confusion, there's a distinction between "nobody but me can understand" and "nobody but me currently understands", right?
At the risk of sounding pedantic, it's probably worth pointing out that this executive order isn't really regulating AI.

That's congress' job.

It's doing some guideline stuff and specifying how it's used internally in the government and by government funded entities.

We're still free to develop AI any way we chose.
Yep, it's just a box :)

that is great - i love all those wires going all over the place. one of those things that almostly didn't work, but did.
> Does unionization really make companies more successful?

In the US auto industry (which is the relevant industry for the article under discussion), it hasn't. Companies like Toyota that employ non-union workers in the US are doing at least as well as (and have arguably done better than over time) the Big Three.
IRAs have a much lower max contribution than 401ks which as far as I can tell only serves to force you to line the pockets of whoever your company chooses to operate your 401k.
While this sounds great on the surface, it's used to control things like our elections. Politicians that Google likes can send as much mail as they want. Ones they don't mysteriously gets all of their email marked as spam.

Normies don't understand that big tech will basically control our elections from now on (and they won't understand how) unless we get the government involved.
My guess is that the firing rate of biological neurons more or less simplifies to the activation in an artificial neuron. Higher firing rate = higher activation.
The 27” iMac on my desk is better than dual displays: simply better display quality when you’re not on a laptop power budget but also losing the borders, alignment, etc. issues is hard to give up since there are a lot of development tools designed for one big display.

The drawback is that they lost target display mode years ago and there’s no way to upgrade. I’d love to swap a logic board to go to ARM but it feels wasteful to toss a perfectly usable system.
Right, simple arrogance.

I refuted flat earthers, and I learned why they think what they do, and why I think it's round.

Arrogance is not an argument.
It's gonna be cheap risc-v Chinese phones for a while. And they'll get faster and faster every six months. But they'll stay cheap. Until even Samsung can't compete and stops making phones, like LG did.
Also cost.

Apple introduced the 15 inch MacBook Air on June 6th.

If they upgraded it to the M3 right now that machine would have only lasted 4 months and 4 days.

Sure they could do it, but how many sales are they really losing because they haven’t? People buying the Air are not exactly looking for the absolute best in technology. They’re probably much more likely to be price sensitive, and putting a brand new M3 in would likely make that worse.

So if you consider that you have to make new boxes and manuals and new hardware and test it and change the lines and everything else… what are the chances you would come out positive after such a short amount of time?

It would make some more sense for the 13 inch air which is about 18 months old, but again if you don’t have to maybe you keep selling the M2 for another six months.
Like recommending abstinence only education.
> They have fixed a faulty GPU on a 4 year old laptop for free

I have to laugh at this.

Apple had a well known strategy of denying that obvious problems with their devices were not actually problems with their devices until 5-10 years later when no one would be using those devices anymore, at which point they would announce a recall, which involved a tedious process of proving it's the right device, and shipping it to Apple for days or taking it to an Apple Store for repairs.

In the meanwhile they would deny that it was ever a problem. The good thing was that a lot of Apple Geniuses were absolutely decent people and would probably give you a repair for free although they were supposed to try to get you to pay for the repairs.

I mean, just consider how long Apple denied the following, highly public recall worthy issues (and then extrapolate that to how they would behave with something that was less publicized and had a failure rate of about 10% as opposed to the much higher failure rates exhibited in these situations):

1. You're holding it wrong, iPhone 4.
2. No, your battery is not degraded...you're just imagining that your battery life is low
3. We fixed the degraded battery....no your phone hasn't slowed down...you're just imagining it.
4. Butterfly keyboards.
Awesome. My kids will love this one. I signed up but I needed to have a password that is less than 20 characters, no special characters (only alpha numeric characters). I also had to prove that I'm a special robot every time I try to fix their password requirements, which they won't say until you make the mistakes. You should be able to do in about 4 tries at worst.
I have that problem with a former utility company that keeps sending updates about the business that I've unsubscribed from multiple times. The one that irks me the most is TP-Link Kasa who has a marketing opt-out in the account creation flow and they still send repetitive spam without honoring the unsubscribe link.
Wouldn't make more sense for Apple to define and backup what they mean as the most advanced? Also, Apple's products never hold up to the specs they quote in their marketing material any way. I'm not sure why you are taking their own post as fact, when Apple is one of the most blatant over marketing companies around.

And even if it was true, it doesn't matter because Apple is obsessed with placing their chips in the most thermally constrained form factors as possible.
Yeah unless the market is doing well and your balance is growing. I get that it isn't a "problem" per se. :-)
I’m thinking https://astral.sh/ are going to be the ones to “solve” this.
No, it doesn't. The original questioner is already aware of the extremely common phenomenon where mail providers scan links in emails. That's not what the question is about. The first comment contains a very specific question about something different. The response is derailing the discussion.
I feel like most people with those needs aside from a handful of corporate purchasers are going to be building their own towers anyway, which Apple is going to have a hard time competing with even if they fixed the current issues with the Mac Pro towers.

It would be interesting if Apple took a crack at an M-series HEDT variant that’s allowed to chug electricity freely though, even if that’d be extremely niche.
At a ~recent work place the entire floor of developers had (Intel) MacBook Pros with dual 24" monitors.

Some of them were trying out Apple Silicon replacements, though I'm not aware of what they did monitor wise. Probably used the excuse to buy a single large ultrawide each instead, though I don't actually know. ;)
Cgroup
It's a little surprising a Republican who supports universal health care (maybe there just aren't any) hasn't played it up as a pro-business policy.
very cool work! if you used diff models to embed the docs, did they give you diff sized vectors? did this cause any problems in db storage or calculating vector distances?
What I'm trying to say is simple: the unions' basic position is that corporations don't treat workers the way they deserve to be treated. If that is really true, unions should be able to increase productivity and efficiency by putting their money where their mouth is and forming their own corporations that treat workers better, and selling the services of the workers to other corporations. Then negotiations like the ones described in the article would be straightforward contract negotiations between corporations with roughly equal bargaining power. That's what the unions claim to want. And yet it doesn't happen: the UAW, for example, has never even considered becoming the United Auto Workers Corporation and selling services to GM and Ford.
Nope. Using LibreWolf.

As another poster pointed out, maybe you should contact the people at Kagi about this.
Thanks _benj!
To a first approximation - no one cares about how well a Qualcomm desktop chip runs Linux. The consumer market is Windows and Macs

Nebraska Furniture Mart. It could be because I had a really rough time with Rooms-to-Go.
IMO catching bugs is a nice side-effect of code reviews.

The primary value I've seen across teams has been more on having shared team context across a codebase, if something goes bump in the night you've got a sense on how that part of the codebase works. It's also a great opportunity for other engineers to ask "why" and explain parts that aren't obvious or other context that's relevant. We'll find the occasional architectural mismatch(although we like to catch those much earlier in the design process) and certainly prevented bugs from shipping but if that's the primary focus I think a team is missing a lot of the value from regular code reviews.
My other favorite instructions on the VAX: the CRC instruction, the CASE dispatch table operations, and, glory of all glories, the _3-parameter_ operand + operand + destination instructions.
It seemed like Metal was probably measuring it under the covers and adjusting things as opposed to asking the programmer to figure it out.
In case I haven’t already made it clear enough in the comment you replied to - whether I believe in something or not doesn’t depend on who would benefit from it.

But to answer the question, you use proprietary software protected by means other than government force every single day.
Guessing using two smaller capacity battery packs instead isn't workable?
>For most companies “deleting the model” is equivalent to dissolving the company

I'm okay with that. It's sad that you're not. If you're willing to start a business on such shady foundations, there's a really good chance your business will continue to make shady decisions in the future. It's better to find and remove the cancer early
