Collective output? How does that work, each one looks at a different part? Might we do the same?

I can admit when I don't grasp something. But I'm not going to defer to someone else who says that it's incomprehensible to anyone but them. A statement like that should set your bullshit detector off immediately, unless you like being sacrificed atop a pyramid.
I guess the question is: in terms of performance per watt, how valuable is the "unified" aspect?
It's not just Outlook. Teams is messing that up just as well, and so did RiF on Android.

Turns out, dealing with Unicode beyond 2 bytes (i.e. anything above ASCII and the common Latin characters) is still a problem in 2023.
Why wouldn't you think it's both?

they obviously care about money and selling periphials is money... but so is selling consoles.

If they can't control the cheaters in some fashion (losing battle and all that) then they will sell less consoles because why would people pay for that? (unless you're a cheater paying for it but that's besides the point).

The problem you have is that you think there's only one answer to this and the answers is the want to stop the cheaters AND they want money because cheaters affect both.
I generally agree with the accessibility arguments against doing anything for this, but if you are going to do something, I feel like "give dev's a way to opt into this check, limit to online play" feels like a reasonable system. That would allow fighting games in particular to not opt in.

Sony has something like this setup with screen recording, where some parts of games (cutscenes in some stuff) can't get recorded. It's annoying, but at least it's not the whole game, and the feature exists.
The indirect effect of open source software are really strong though. It only takes one coder to remove an anti-feature that the devs decided to include and publish.
I don't know.

If you gave me 1 million, I'm going to bet against myself creating a trillion dollar company.

If you gave a bunch of smart people 1 million, I'd bet against 99.9% of them replicating Bezos' success.

Pre-family investment, Bezos was already a super investor at a HF.
M2 was late rather than M3 being early.

The devil tends to be in the details. More precisely, in the benchmark details. I think Apple provided none other than the marketing blurb. In the meantime, embarrassingly parallel applications do benefit from having more performant cores.
A lot of marketing is aspirational though. People want what the pros use. If it's their top hobby or they aspire to becoming one of those pros... then they want the best, no limits if they can afford it. Even if many of those buyers realistically never will hit those limits.

I suspect that impulse sells a lot of MBPs, DSLRs back in the day, Photoshop licenses, sports cars, high end ski gear, etc. etc.
I think this is brilliant: let the people know how much of the price actually goes to the company, and how much to the government. Helps people make an informed decision on who's to blame for high prices of everything.
I don't think autopilot works if the cameras are not calibrated. I had to also drive a certain set of miles for it to operate again.

Your response corresponds to a lot of research I did on if I had to pay the recalibration fee or not (when I initially got a quote from Safelite) - the consensus online is mixed, but I'm speaking from my own personal experience here that I did not require recalibration tooling other than to press the recalibrate service button after my windshield was replaced and drove 20-30 miles before autopilot would be re-enabled again.

Although these are Model Y instructions, they pretty much reflect the experience I had:

https://service.tesla.com/docs/Public/diy/modely/en_us/GUID-...

The document does mention "Contact Tesla only if your Model Y has not completed the calibration process after driving 100 miles (160 km) in the described conditions.", which probably means you would need external hardware calibration tooling because it couldn't auto-calibrate.
> 1. I like interesting puzzles. A lot of code - especially commercial code - is pretty boring if you do it right. I find myself subconsciously pushing for features that will be fun to implement. And by "fun", I mean, features that will overcomplicate everything.

That's what factorio is for!
I enjoyed "black think juice".
my intel died last week. had to get an m2 pro and THIS drops today. kinda salty that my intel couldn' have held out till the M3 was available
> Wanting to dock onto two displays even at the low end doesn't seem like such a niche use-case.

I mean, it almost certainly is? I would guess a majority of the low-end SKUs are rarely if ever attached to one external display. Two would be rarer still.
The plan is to stay 5 years in the same place.

I feel more a nomad, rather than an expat. Expats are imo paid by their company to go work in some other place (full expenses paid). Nomads make their own choices.
But it seems most of the world has a different interpretation.

Maybe I'll adopt the "slowmad" title.
I was always baffled how M$ actually took over the controller game on PC as well. But this is also pretty greedy and obviously just for the money. Like if people wan to buy some crap that breaks in 30 days they should be, the market should decide. They should also buy some innovative controller from "unauthorized" companies that just work.

I mean its great to have a standardized button layout but we pretty much had that even B4 Xbox was were basically forced on every PC gamer. Games and steam also support PS controllers but I read all the time that games are lacking the icons or that they do not work correctly.

I recently bought a Turtle Beach controller that has button below that act like stick presses, I think the elite controller have that as well but it was cheaper and has no stupid wireless I do not need. Anyway I really do not like the fact that they have to pay some licensing fees or need to get it officially approve from fucking M$. I remember back in the day were you could actually use any controller in games, I do not think it works like that these days. You need like xbox controller emulator and shit so I just buy them begrudgingly. There would be more innovation like the Steam Controller (just on better, from someone else, never used one but the layout made no sense to me like the buttons below the pad but it was a step in the right direction I think) if M$ would not had this monopoly on their controllers that never really change.
Given the frequent mentions of Cloudflare in this post, I'd like to offer an alternative suggestion.

Consider migrating your website to web hosting providers renowned for their DDoS protection, such as OVH or Path. By doing so, you can ensure that your server performance remains unaffected even during ongoing attacks.
Yeah, what is it with dog owners who all seem to be clueless about the dangers of an unleashed dog? Is there a psychological disorder to explain this worldview? In my life, 100% of dog owners all think their dog is "well behaved" when many are not. Bizarre.
As a Canadian living in the US, this is the bane of my existence. The disappearance of Ts from so many words and phrases irks me:

- bouny hunner

- innerview

- alannic ciddy

- Rocky Mounins

- haunid house

- udderly

- budder (the bagel topping)

- winner (the season)

- bidder (the taste)

- invennive

- annie-American

- bedder

- odder (the cute wadder mammal)

The inventive ways that Ts are dropped in favor of:

- Ns

- Ds

- glottal stops

- nothing at all

are legion.

I've mused about publishing a compilation of these words with dropped Ts, but it's hit-or-miss whether the other person in America who cares would buy the book.
Wild guess but if the base chip has 3 channels and the higher binned chip has 4 channels:

3x6GB = 18GB

3x12GB = 36GB

3x32GB = 96GB

4x12GB = 48GB

4x16GB = 64GB

4x32GB = 128GB
No, you're arguing in bad faith. It's obvious that that wasn't what the OP meant. Besides, the insulin graft is an excellent example of how in some countries people with a particular illness are just seen as dairy cows to be milked for every last cent: because life is priceless.

In a just world - not the one we live in - medicine would be produced like every other bulk molecule, because that's really what it is. Insulin could cost ~ what you pay for some other complex chemical. But because of patents and various graft protecting industry practices depending on where you live you may be overpaying by many orders of magnitude for something that could be quite cheap.
That's because nobody shipped devices that mattered with that architecture.
Apple's biggest problem may be how good the M1 laptops were. I have a 14' M1 Max and there's no task in my workflow that's slow enough that I feel any real need to upgrade.
US SEC sues SolarWinds for concealing cyber risks before hacking
Only 3, unless you're counting the developer boxes? M1 machines were released in November 2020. However, M1 Pro and M1 Max were released only 2 years ago. Things are definitely picking up now...
If they were trying to combat cheaters, they wouldn't have released an official controller that allows generic, 3rd party, unauthenticated inputs: the Xbox Adaptive Controller.

It would be pretty trivial to hook up a Pi Pico through the jacks and USB ports to be able to make a KBM adapter like that. There just hasn't been a point making such a device when the xim/cronus works fine.

It might not even need the jacks, according to https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/account-profile/accessib... the USB-A ports accept HID gamepads.
You're talking about the ones behind someone's patreon? Or something else?
That is an important distinction to make, though what it might look like (even if MAN is also opted out) could be that the users don't see ads, but they are still possibly contributing data to the overall ad profile business. The data would be used for less targeted stuff like demographics or similar wide brushes, since the individual user it came from isn't part of the feedback loop by seeing targeted ads anymore.

I guess I'm saying even if they aren't targeting an individual with that individuals data, they can use it to target other individuals who do see the ads.

As I said above, used is not an option for anything other than a hobby. You found a great used PC for $100. Awesome, now get me 50 more of those with the same specs and price. And don’t forget to make sure every power supply, RAM and SSD is working properly.

Are these Qualcomm chips in products shipping next month?
Yeah, that's a great point.

Although, sometimes (usually) the benefit to an unwritten rule is so much more mundane and benign, right?

Like, "we do it this way because it is just easier if all 500 employees don't make up their own individual rules on how to do it, because that cohesion has its own benefits and now we always know where the mop bucket is instead of looking in 500 different places, some of which are possibly a little more optimal"

Generally a lot of jobs are pretty receptive to process improvements (they are a win for your boss, too) but it takes some social skill to sell those improvements and this is an area where those on the spectrum can struggle more often than average.
I would argue that “investing in your kids” is a middle class point of view. If you’re upper middle class or upper class you have nannies and au pairs helping you raise your children. Your relationship with your children has much more of an air of convenience than a middle class family.

It’s frustrating. I wish they would just charge an extra $X for the privilege of using multiple external monitors. I like the form factor of the MBA as is… if I need to compromise on that, I might as well choose a different machine.
Seriously.... My 16gb MacBook pro M1 work machine runs out of memory constantly. I had a MacBook air 8gb and it was useless, it would freeze constantly and have crackly audio.
I found that 24GB ram is really the minimum that is usable on M-series when doing any type of basic work.

Likely an output of so many electron based apps which are memory hungry, but if the memory is supposedly "really fast" then I would expect better performance. Never had the issue with Intel.

But with a nice bit or memory, the performance is really nice.
100 miles is not sufficient for commutes in America these days. Many people drive more than 100 miles in a day. Even if they don't do it every day, the drive to/from work plus an extra shopping or social trip in the evening could easily put them over 100 miles.

The problem is that, because of cars, they built everything farther apart, and people willingly chose places to live farther away from work. Just look at a map of the city of Phoenix AZ for instance: 100 miles' range won't cover a trip from one side of the city to the other side and back.

However, for vacations, a rental car is absolutely the right idea. That's what people here in Tokyo do: there's lots of convenient places to rent a car for shopping trips to Costco, or a trip to the mountains, etc., because so many people don't own cars.
Yep! But at least it can leverage hyperkit and vastly reduce overhead when running images of matching architecture.

or join with the authorities to maintain law and order.

You spin it as "cartel" but why can't it be spun as Law & Order?

Or do you think that cheaters should have unrestricted control and the ability to destroy the economy of any given game? You think people will play on platforms that aren't working to keep things even?

This is the same argument for P2W games where you can just pay to be the best. A few people will argue for that as they drop thousands to get those "rare" loot boxes and the rest will say "it's no fun to play a game against someone who's paying to be better than they really are".
If it's to stop cheaters, then why not disable the controller only during multiplayer?
Not running their own fabs makes it easier, right? They presumably pay a premium for being the first to use a generation, but not anywhere near as much as the full cost of developing it, since TSMC can sell that capacity to everybody else when they are done with it.
The data isn't very granular. $218.76 spent at Amazon could be almost anything (or anythings). Honestly, I look at my credit card statements and even I have trouble figuring out what I spent money on. The data just doesn't seem that interesting.
I had a Thinkpad X13s for a while that worked quite well except for a video issue (used pawn shop purchases are a risk like that). Firefox, Edge, and MS Office worked great natively on ARM. LibreOffice worked just fine via the MS x86 emulator. And the X13s had the old Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 with less than half the performance. Granted, I wasn't doing any heavy lifting with it the month I had it.

I mainly got it to test out my PortableApps.com stuff running under ARM. I'm doing it now on a Macbook Air M1 with Windows 11 running under UTM.
> a security guard had to let them into the right queue.

So, just looking at the final result they ended up in the right place ?

Assuming the security guard made that adjustment because they were so many of them, the strategy seems to be paying off in that specific case.
M3 should not be in the macbook pro line.

My (possibly naive) hope is that the best practice for a lot of these would be "Don't use AI." That being said, there's certainly a lot of niches in our system where AI could be used. For example, if a witness uses AI to make a sketch of the suspect they saw, you can bypass all the biases present in a police sketch artist.
Interesting take, the introduction makes it clear it isn't a replacement for actual therapy and if you were to prompt the model, it regularly encourages a user to talk to their loved ones and an actual therapist if they are in a bad state. It's designed as a tool to help people deal with their issues in an affordable and accessible way, similar to journaling. Happy to discuss this with you more if you have a genuine reason to believe this will be harmful given the above.
NextDoor is the absolute fucking worst with this. They sign you up to 10+ lists each in over 9+ categories that results in what feels like 100 different "notification types".

Unsubscribing from an email just unsubscribes from that one list. They don't show any other lists or categories (or imply there are more) during this process.

Once you login you are greeted with a multi-page disaster to manually untoggle each of the near 100 list types.

Then when they add new notifications it is auto-on for everyone.

"You will still need API docs"

Been free in my IDE since I compiled the code...

"E2E integration tests"

I can mostly run these on my machine, no need to stand up a cluster to get it running (bonus points if you virt multiple machines on one and still don't need the cluster for complex distributed scenarios).

"you will need some other kind of persistent message queue"

var queue = new Queue();
// then sometime later...
queue.Save();
// or
queue.EmplaceAndSave(); ... queue.Pop();

Trivial and didn't need a server to set it up.

Lots of tech stack stuff simply disappears without server boundaries and the like to get in the way. There is other tech you have to deal with, but at the small scales it mostly doesn't apply. Which, you as a dev are usually only working at small, testing scales, so you don't usually need to support it.
What you're saying is true but needs context. Chemical weapons aren't very effective in war because you need high concentrations spread over large areas, the wind is your enemy, full body clothing is common and and gas masks are cheap.

But if your target is an unsuspecting small population in an enclosed space who's spending a lot time there the calculus changes a bit. Sarin for example is odorless and colorless, mustard gas can also be colorless, doesn't hit you immediately and unlikely to be detected by smell.

It actually happened in Iran and it's lucky the people responsible either didn't know what they were doing or were actively trying to not kill people because they easily could have.
We learned there is, a year ago, in late 2022's RISC-V Summit.

Windows came up a few times in RISC-V's foundation own talks.

An official announcement would follow hardware availability. rather than the other way around.
I'm one of them. For work, come and grab my 2019 16in from my cold dead hands - it may not have the battery lifetime of my private 2022 M2 MBA, but at least I don't have to fight weird issues with x86 Docker images (especially anything involving a JDK runtime, i.e. Tomcat, tends to act up). And no, converting these images to ARM isn't an option, the source image doesn't come from us, and we need to reproduce the exact software environment to reproduce bugs.

And for me as a Samsung phone user, I'm pretty annoyed that I have to drag out a win10 machine every time I want to update the firmware of my phone because Odin is only available on Windows and UTM can't use Rosetta to emulate a Windows VM at any acceptable speed or stability.
You got it. Instead of letting software developers allocate a static cache with overhead that eats a little into the unified memory, the Mac gets to decide how to dynamically allocate and release cache for graphics. They said it would be "transparent to developers," but not really sure what that means exactly.
> I actually think this is the opposite of the case, for some definition of “generic”: the more generic problem has fewer possible solutions (there is only one pure function of type x=>x) so, if you hit on the right general problem to solve, your code will almost always be simpler. The problem is this is one of those “$1 to solve the problem/$99 to know which problem to solve” situations.

This is true, but I think also illustrates the phenomenon. It's tempting not to solve the specific problem in front of you, because a more general problem might be easier and more elegant to solve—and this mindset can easily lead one into, at worst, never solving the real problem; or, at less worst, solving a problem that's so far generalized that no one else looking at your code can tell why it's doing what it's doing.

(It can also happen that the more general problem doesn't have a simpler solution. If I want to print a string that has a few hard-coded values in it, formatted a particular way, I could develop a formatting spec and write a formatting library to process it, which is surely the right solution to the general problem—but, if the specific problem is likely only going to arise once, then it may be both easier to understand and a better use of time just to put in the hard-coded values.)
IIRC, CAN-SPAM explicitly says the unsubscribe button needs to be available without logging in. So this would be a violation.
It was pretty hard to saturate the memory bandwidth on the M2 on the CPU side (not sure about the GPU).
We desperately need to stop thinking of housing in terms of investment at all.

Housing is for people to live in. That's it. Any other purpose is a long-distant second to that. The fact that it has become primarily an investment product is what's causing all the pain.
Love the improvement on the CPUs, but I was hoping for bigger iMacs and smaller Macbooks. I work at home on a 27" iMac, and on the road on a 12", 2 pound Macbook. We are years into the M generation of chips, and iMacs are still stuck at 24", and laptops are minimum 3 pounds and 13".
Same page indeed, just providing an argument to attack the assumption as you mentioned.
> Any reason for not upgrading?

Why is this sort of question always framed as if people have to provide a justification for not buying a new model, as if spending money on the new shiny without any reason is normal or desirable?

We live in a day and age where hardware bought a decade ago still packs enough punch to run most of today's software without any hiccup. Why would anyone waste their cash to replace something that works without having any compelling reason?
Faster than what? M1 Pro? Just barely.
With a MBP, sure. I don’t want a machine that large however. I have both a 14” Pro and a 15” Air that feels significantly smaller than its “smaller” counterpart…

> My usual test for a lot of critics of current systems that offer something "far better" with nearly no downside

The current system absolutely depends on fossil fuels, which are not unlimited. Also it brought us into a mass extinction (we are in it, that's a fact), and it is bringing climate change (which will just be a complication on top of the energy crisis when we pass peak production of fossil fuels - pretty soon).

I don't see that as "no downside"; our system is literally about to collapse.
