Pretty much. And the "advantage" does not even matter in the end since it cannot run anything worthwhile with those speeds.
The current Apple marketing material is hilariously old/bad ports of software that really are not the leader in their fields but also generally just work better/faster on a windows PC (sometimes even on Linux).

Which is why the quoted battery life is complete bullshit for Apple fanboys who never go out of the walled garden. If you start using the software other people use and need the battery life becomes a lot less impressive, because those software actually makes use of the hardware.

It was ok when Apple wasn't too bad of a deal from a hardware pricing standpoint (considering build quality and potential longevity thanks to ease of repair/upgrade) but now it is plain stupid.

As far as im concerned, unless you are developing for Apple platforms or really have to use Logic/Final Cut; it doesn't make sense to invest in an Apple computer at the moment, considering the price. They just don't offer anything worth the pricing delta no matter what the marketing and fanboys say.

Entry level machines are barely relevant, but with the upgrade pricing on RAM/storage, high end machines just don't matter in the grand scheme of things. I could buy 2 fully loaded PCs for one high end Mac Studio, there is no way it can make up the productivity for that difference, no matter how little power it consumes (power that is cheap, and conveniently only gets used when actual work is being done...)
I can't go along with your reasons at all (installing go on every machine is not solving a portability problem, it is the portability problem) but I'm going to leave that aside.

can Go be used REPL as a shell CLI? and do everything I need to do from the CLI? because that's why I use bash for scripting. An equal amount of time I spend typing at the command line, and I one language is the language I want to use.
I still have this problem, I have friends but when we talk I often drift to make conversations about them. I think it is a difficult habit to get out of, and it feels awkward to say things about myself without getting an explicit question. For a long time I just thought people were rude but nowdays I understand the problem to a big part is with me. I have started to talk more about subjects that interest me since that doesnt make me feel as egocentric as straight up talking about myself. It feels like a step in the right direction…

IMHO IK provides enough to counter the issues the person I was replying to was mentioning.

Now of course you can go above and beyond that for more realistic motion and , but having worked in the space, I would Serguei that is also solved without requiring recent research. Most recent motion research is about novel motion generation but the general problem of dynamic adjustment to authored animation has been solved by several systems already. But just like my original comment, there’s both a development and runtime cost to all of this.
There's this video from a woman reporter in Gaza taking a video, and casually a rocket flies out from behind her. Either from her building directly, and if not the launch site must have been very close by. She turns around, say "oh that happens all the time", and goes on, as if nothing happened. I can't find the video of the Palestinian reporter actually laughing it off, but there's these videos:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_fP6mlNSK8

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EaqWqjb4w6s

Obviously if this happens, you leave the area and don't come back. And if you don't leave, you don't complain about a rocket coming back.

And of course, no explanation from anyone for the effects on the other side. Because everyone is saying "Israel stops most of these rockets and less people die there". And because of that, Israel should just tolerate this. People in Israel should just accept they live under constant rocket fire. THAT, is apparently not worth disturbing comfortable apartments of people in Gaza ...

How anyone can even suggest Gazans have any kind of moral high ground when they're not doing anything about this, how they expect to go about their lives undisturbed while their apartments are being used to kill people ...

Well the middle ground does exist and it is mostly just a blend of the two problems.

Most companies I worked tend to oscillate between these two extreme:

- why can’t we get anything done quicker? We need to stop refactoring everything all the time!

6 months later:

- why is everything breaking all the time? Why are engineers complaining that the code is shit? We have to stop and start again on cleaner bases.

6 months later:

- why can’t we get anything done?

One has to realize that this is how it works, and be at peace with it.

It seems like jq is getting a nice boost due to how useful it is getting JSON into and out of OpenAI and LLM environments that understand jq.

This is close to my use case as well. I mainly buy e-books these days, but they are often published as an afterthought[1] and not designed for readers – things like maths and plots get mangled in the process and vary from excellent to completely unreadable. So I want something closer to the physical book to look up the equations and visuals, but I don't want to have to go to the library[2] for each one. A PDF scan of the print book is very convenient.

[1] Sometimes they are literally an OCR of the print book! You can tell because of the symbol substitutions.

[2] Even most digital libraries I've tried are very inconvenient to "go to". Archive.org might be the exception.

The described behaviors could be narcissism but are likely innocent ADHD. I have noticed that unmedicated highly ADHD persons will inject themselves into conversations they were never party to of close physical proximity and then redirect the conversation to their personal experiences.

To the uninformed these behaviors look like narcissistic personality disorders, but they are not. They are instead multiple hyper-stimulus seeking behaviors devoid of context and patience. Also bear in mind many people are ADHD absent of a diagnosis or diagnosed well into adulthood.

> Similar to how bank transactions have been instant in Europe for more than two decades, but are still a novelty in the US.

As the other commenter says, "Europe" is not a uniform entity. You may be thinking of some component of "Europe" where this may have been true for two decades. Wonder where that is.

In my experience, in the French component, this has absolutely not been the case. Only recently have "immediate" transfers become free at my bank, and they've only been available at all for a few years. Certainly less than 10 years.

And they're also not actually instant. I'm a freelance, and my professional account is at the same bank, same branch, as my personal account. The "instant" transfer is only credited the next day, even though it shows up quickly in pending transactions.

And this isn't some dingy "mom & pop" operation, it's the biggest bank in Europe (which may or may not help with these issues).

> This regulation should be seen in the context of the pre-existing systems which it builds on, towards a common European standard. An obvious criticism is that this centralizes power, but that is fundamentally rooted in the assumption that the EU is similar to the US: It's not.

> In the EU the component States are very influential, they have formal or 'soft' veto's on practical all matters. There are no EU presential elections. The EU 'government' is run by appointees nominated by the States. Its much more like the US Confederacy.

I'm not familiar with US' workings or its history so can't comment on how close the EU is to it. But, at least in France, people do take issue with the centralization of power. "It's not the US" is actually an argument against centralization (again, not sure how correct this is).

I've found that small, focused teams are generally better at this, especially when they're close to the stakeholders and can arrange a metting to get some feedback if need be.

Unfortunately companies tend to throw people at the problem, so you get 10+ sized teams where 30% at maximum do any productive work, because the rest is either too caught up in their personal lives or too junior to pull their own weight.

I've been both part of that 30% and the rest in different projects and I've managed to flip one dev to the better side once, so it's not typically an inherent feature of a person.
Excellent list of articles. I suggest people to look more into the author's CollapseOS, their research into a post-collapse minimal operating system to bootstrap computing anew.

OSDev is such a fascinating and lost topic, due to how niche it is and how computers and hardware have become a complicated mass of abstractions only a few have full access to. Writing a OS that talks with 90% of your hardware is relatively doable, writing a GPU driver is pretty much impossible these days unless you are the manufacturer.

We need more research into alternative computing. We need to move past UNIX which has served us well but it is a local maxima, not the best we can do. We need to return to the roots somewhat (maximecb's uvm, Devine Lu Linvega's uxn, etc.) to find a way forward.

I started with OsDev at 16 [1], had to find a regular boring job for the rest of my career, but my goal right now is to bootstrap my own small "lifestyle" business to find money, time and freedom to explore the world of bare metal alternative OS again. Something Lispy and Smalltalky to power the entire thing. I wrote a bit about it in my website. [2][3]

Sorry for the tangent. I love OSDev. Many of you would too, I bet.

Oh yeah. I have good conversational memory. Hearing the same story three times is usually when I start to doubt the other persons memory. However, they have a different task to solve. I only have to concentrate on what they are telling me, and that makes repetition detection easier. However, they likely told the same story to numberous people, so they are used to repetitions, but they have no (good) mechanism to detect when they tell the same story to the same person.

2 stripe blue belt here! I used to use Vim for everything other than Java development and have now adopted Emacs in the same way. I am using it for Clojure and Common Lisp development along with org mode, irc, rss, git and file management

I started with Evil mode and then moved to Xah fly keys before sticking to the emacs bindings. Having the caps lock key bound to CTRL helped me a lot. I don't know if it makes that much of a difference for Emacs but using the DVORAK layout has helped my fingers

There are other bindings you can try like Meow or God mode but I don't know what the adoption rate is like for them. Emacs gives you the flexibility to set it up as you please. As others have mentioned, there may be other keyboard options that might be more helpful as well

> it’s also a big security improvement for all the cases where the third party need that info anyway

Security there (in the cases I am guessing) is determined not by Alice being able to prove that she is Alice, but by Trudy not having secondary ways allowing her to claim that she is Alice.

So, it would be «a big security improvement» only when login were restricted to needing a certificate.

JQ is an insanely powerful language, just to put to rest any of your doubts about what it is capable of here is an implementation of JQ... in JQ itself:

https://github.com/wader/jqjq

It really is a super cool little, super expressive nearly (if not entirely) turing complete pure functional programming language.

You can:

* Define your own functions and libraries of functions

* Do light statistics

* Drastically reshape JSON data

* Create data indexes as part of you JQ scripts and summarize things

* Take JSON data, mangle it into TSV and pipe into SQLite

cat data.json | jq '<expr>[]|@tsv' | sqlite3 -cmd ".mode tabs" -cmd ".import /dev/stdin YourTable"

And also for prototyping you can also use it to tailor output of APIs to what you need in a pinch, using JQ as a library especially with something like python:

https://pypi.org/project/jq/

As a part of the library you can compile your expressions down to "byte-code" once and reuse them.

Saying JQ is a best kept secret is an understatement. JQ gets more amazing the deeper you dig into it. Also it is kind of crazy fast for what it is.

> There are several color models with a more human-centered design, such as HSL, LCH, OKLCH. Their coordinates are designed around how humans describe colors, such as hue for the main color (e.g. red, yellow, green, etc.), chroma/saturation to specify how intense the color is (e.g. 0 would be gray), and lightness to specify how light it is (e.g. white would be 100% and black would be 0%).

This is less convincing when you realize that HSL (for example) also uses numbers to describe hue, so you still have to memorize the order and positions of different hues. Is that a big deal? Nope, but it's not as perfectly human-friendly as the author makes it out to be.

I think it’s the other way around, right? Our common ancestors evolved high-melanin skin, and people with less melanin in their skin evolved to lose the melanin as a response to moving to lower-light parts of the world.
It's not actually that difficult to know, you can look it up. It isn't 90% effective, or 10%, but rather 0.2% effective.

The other major problem here is that what you're deterring isn't the underlying crime that generates the money but rather the activity that triggers AML scrutiny. So you have little hope of deterring the underlying crime, all you do is cause people to organize their finances in a different way. Which is hardly worth imposing significant costs on millions of innocent people.

It won’t burn through the budget faster by having more cores. You’re given a fixed time-slice of the whole CPU (in K8s, caveats below), whether you use all the cores or just one doesn’t particularly matter. On one hand, it would be would nice to be able to limit workloads on K8s to a subset of cores too, on the other, I can only imagine how much catastrophically complex that would make scheduling and optimisation.

Caveats: up to the number of cores exposed to your VM. I also believe the later versions of K8s let you do some degree of workload-core pinning and I don’t yet know how that interacts with core availability .
Regarding your last point: I've (finally!) switched from Windows to Linux last year. I have, however, decided to set up a dual boot system, and have installed Linux first. Worked just fine.
do you happen to be working in CUCO?
I'm sometimes wondering whether Microsoft wants to tank their Windows Server or what? A great OS overall, but speaking as a service provider - the licensing makes so much effort on provider part to even offer a VM with Microsoft OS. Only recently (due to EU pressure?) provided License mobility where customer himself is responsible for software licences and can BYOL.

Otherwise it was on service provider to collect whatever software the customer is using and charge for it. And if you don't, prepare for a hefty fine. Windows of course provides SIL infrastructure to do just that, but all that implies server has to be configured in some way.

And then the price for the licence ofcourse...

I really like Windows Server OS, but the effort it puts on part of service provider - no wonders everyone wants and offers to deploy Linux.
