It's a little more complicated than that.

Dev devices are typically physically different - containing debug lines and connections that are not present in retail. The Switch itself has 2 different types of dev console: One that looks very much like retail, and another that is about 4x as thick and has every port under the sun.

Secondly, these consoles are physically fused differently. Instead of having retail encryption keys burned into the SoC, they have custom keys issued to the developer installed. This means dev consoles cannot run retail software for lack of a key to decrypt it - but they will decrypt, and run, anything the developer signs.

Both of these things are physical modifications, ultimately. Dev consoles, thus, do not come off the same production line as retail; but are customized and modified devices with their own manufacturing process. That's not cheap.

Sure, the Xbox does get away with the retail console having a "Dev Mode." That's a testament to the Xbox's security having gone 12 years without a crack. Making physically different retail and developer consoles is a much safer solution for anyone who isn't Xbox.
The one good thing about Palworld is it got me to learn about Cassette Beasts. A Pokemon-like that doesn't straight up rip off monsters and is not "early access" bullshit.
Just wanted to chime in that I love my Framework 13 as well. It's been running great on Ubuntu for well over a year now--no complaints.
I have no real comment on the wider issues raised in the article, but I agree that this is —at face value— odd.

‘Since the latest layoff, “they’ve been scheduling managers to do things like work a register for hours at a time, sorting and shelving books.”

“This is deliberate and systematic,” he continued. “There are days when there are as many managers working on the floor as union workers.”’

Should it not be okay for a business to ask any of its employees to perform a reasonable and safe task for which they’ve been trained?

I hope with the new modular keyboard tray we will get some decent option. I would only buy it if there was one with a track point tbh, third party or otherwise.
* Literally any problem ipv6 has, has already been solved and the solutions work just fine. Here we are. Literally everything is working fine.

* Literally offers no upsides to the consumer, only potential downsides

* ipv6 enabled devices don't live up the promise of "data center free vacuum robots", even though that's what everyone is screaming is the purpose

* Private devices should not be exposed to the internet anyway, nor individually identifiable when they use the internet

* IPv6 Privacy protections are less powerful than ipv4 NAT.

* Google/Facebook/Everyone pushing ipv6 the hardest has reasons to invade your privacy, therefore I suggest we do the exact opposite of what they want us to do with our personal lives and networks

I'm not opposed to new tech, but ipv6 for ipv6's sake is stupid. I just block it everywhere I can and move on with life.

You are not alone with both issues. Framework12, i5, NixOS. My milleage is 2.5~3h, but usage is light (vim mainly, often not even a browser).

I spent quite some time trying different things to optimize it, but never got more than realistic 3 hours.

I need Smalltalk for a lot of backends that have nothing to do with UI.
I once took a job that involved managing Ansible playbooks for an absolutely massive number of servers that would run them semi-regularly for things like bootstrapping and patching. I had used Chef before for a similar task, and I loved it because it's just ruby and I could easily define any logic I wanted while using loops and proper variables.

I understand that Ansible was designed for non-programmers, but there is no worse hell for someone who is actually familiar with basic programming than being confined to the hyper-verbose nonsense that is Jinja templating of Ansible playbooks when you need to have a lot of conditional tasks and loops.
Ah, that explains why I couldn’t find any online YAML->JSON converters that would demonstrate this flaw when it came up a few weeks ago.

So now we have the same language that parses the same document subtly differently depending on what version you use. Hooray?
Game mechanics are generally not copyrightable. Nintendo did file patents for some mechanics in the newest Zelda game. I don't know how well those would hold up under court scrutiny, bad patents are approved every day. Pokemon's mechanics were also not fully novel, it was inspired by what was already in 1997 the well established JRPG formula.
The original Big Bang theory is considered incorrect. The addition of "inflation" makes it compatible with current evidence, and we still colloquially call that theory the "Big Bang" theory, so... no, it's not been disproven.
Because a lot of us have non simple networks that are also not complex enough to warrant whatever the enterprise design commitee designed for ipv6.
Catalytic converter and transmission costs come nowhere near that of a new battery. As far as engines go, you can almost always repair an engine at a fraction of the cost of replacing an engine. Multiple times if need be. Probably same with the transmission. Battery replacement is a one shot deal.

> The Strauss–Howe generational theory, devised by William Strauss and Neil Howe, describes a theorized recurring generation cycle in American history and Western history. According to the theory, historical events are associated with recurring generational personas (archetypes). Each generational persona unleashes a new era (called a turning) lasting around 20–25 years, in which a new social, political, and economic climate (mood) exists. They are part of a larger cyclical "saeculum" (a long human life, which usually spans between 80 and 100 years, although some saecula have lasted longer). The theory states that a crisis recurs in American history after every saeculum, which is followed by a recovery (high). During this recovery, institutions and communitarian values are strong. Ultimately, succeeding generational archetypes attack and weaken institutions in the name of autonomy and individualism, which eventually creates a tumultuous political environment that ripens conditions for another crisis.

This AMD config uses s2idle and the battery life very much depends on the usage itself. Ideally, running UMA is going to yield a longer life than say, running from dGPU. For gaming, we have folks using dGPU only as needed. Provides choice.

This is the picture going around that this claim seems to be based on.

Admittedly I am new to IPv6 but: when AWS announced they were going to start charging for IPv4 addresses, I set about controlling costs by enabling IPv6 on our instances and then making sure I could reach them at their IPv6 addresses (e.g. via SSH). After some troubleshooting I discovered that IPv6 wasn't enabled on my local office router/gateway; it's about 10 years old (still works great btw). I went into the web-based control panel and found the "IPv6" section and didn't know what any of the settings did. Eventually I stumbled onto a config that allowed me to reach my remote IPv6 destinations without breaking IPv4. I confirmed my results with https://test-ipv6.com .

Then, I used test-ipv6.com from my home network and found, again, that IPv6 wasn't enabled.

From my standpoint, it doesn't matter that I, a techie, can get IPv6 working by doing one or two things. The VAST majority of people out there wouldn't know where to start. If it's not enabled in their router by default it's not getting enabled. Maybe newer devices are getting shipped with it enabled by default, I don't know. But LOTS of people have modems and routers that are going to be in the same state as mine, and best I can tell, they won't be able to reach my websites if I turn off IPv4.

If I'm misunderstanding the state of things, I would greatly appreciate it if someone could illuminate me.

The part of me that reveres clear, concise, correct communication appreciates any effort to encourage factual correctness. However, the cynically jaded part of me concedes that this battle has already been lost - at least in the public sphere of communication (eg politics, advertising, journalism, social media, corporate comms).

Anyone paying attention already knows that anything of value you don't pay for directly will have indirect costs, most often in the form of strings attached, advertising, upsells and annoyances. Today, whenever I hear something offered for "Free" it immediately implies two things. First, any actual value on offer is relatively low (or net negative), and second, the entity offering it has made a choice to obfuscate the true cost for reasons I'd need to understand before engaging.

This means I probably don't want it and even if I might want something like the promise of it, I'd have to navigate and parse a maze of obfuscation crafted by someone who's already not being entirely upfront with me. Since A) I generally value my time (and related intangibles like vendor grief, inconsistency, etc) more than my money, and B) I've learned I'm usually not happy with the lower cost versions of things that matter to me - I've adopted a default stance of "I don't want anything that's free". It's possible I'm some kind of oddball outlier but I don't think so. In fact, I'm fairly confident a good chunk of the highly-desirable "reasonably affluent consumer" segment are similarly jaded and now associate any offer pushing "FREE" in the top-line with a negative connotation.
I can't believe they have the gall to infringe on gamefreak inventions such as sheep and porcupines...
> there are lots of holes in that argument

There’s holes in all kinds of things people believe. If you’re talking about actual belief systems then you can’t assume rational actors and logical thinking. Philosophy really doesn’t have the tools to explain what’s going on. We’re in the realm of psychology / neuroscience.

> to assume that cessation of the latter must entail the cessation of the former

Mind uploading blurs the line between life and afterlife because it wasn’t conceived of when those ideas were created.

IMO the conceptual framework that created the idea of a material world is really a delineation between magic rituals / religion and what people actually observed. The wacky nature of the observable universe is really orthogonal to the initial differentiation to the point where I think people would still talk about the material world in terms of things like fate and reincarnation even if spells worked.

> I have been deploying IPv6 for more than ten years and it really improve many situations (beside larger addresses).

for most people, it is transparent and doesn't improve anything... ipv6 could be disabled on their router and everything would be the same (I actually used to disable ipv6 at router level to avoid inadvertently leaking data on ipv6)
OOf thats a tough sell, two hours is pretty pathetic. I can't imagine how any laptop maker can be selling a laptop in 2024 with anything shorter than 8 hours and keep a straight face.

This surely has to be a software issue, I can't imagine they'd have been silly enough to fit such a tiny battery!
Why? This could have been just some local system in that region.
I think the trend towards complexity is more just due to more complex things being built out of less complex ones - complexity creates/supports greater complexity, so it's a natural progression.

For higher level animals complexity may also be more inherently favorable since it supports a more customized environmental "fit", and helps in the predator-prey arms race.
Not at all—I would not have mentioned this if I was unwilling to talk about it.

The WARN Act[1] is a bit of federal legislation that applies during mass layoffs. There are some variations from state to state, but it generally ensures anyone caught in a mass layoff (50 to 100+ people) is required to receive either 2-months advance notice or 2-months salary+medical benefits.

When Shopify performed their layoffs, there were subject to WARN payouts as they did not furnish 2-months notice.

The severance agreement they gave me and others paid out an additional 8 weeks + 1 week per year of seniority, contingent on signing.

I declined to sign, which was painful, but my main concerns were over two clauses:

* a non-mutual NDA Shopify was unwilling to change to a mutual NDA.

* a provision to appear in court on Shopify’s behalf, uncompensated, for an indeterminate about of time, whenever requested.

There was a lot of other oddness about that whole layoff I’ll leave out here for the sake of brevity, but the whole process was quite the shitshow.

"One promising approach, known as “dropout”, runs a problem through a neural network algorithm multiple times, each with slightly different settings. We can then ask to what extent the resulting answers agree -- a proxy for how uncertain the network is about its choice."

I'm sorry, but the 737 MAX problems started well before 2018. The results of those problems were spectacularly made public in 2018.
> To fix that, the Itanium has the option to do a speculative load, which may or may not succeed at a later point. So you can do a load from a dubious pointer, then check if the pointer is fine (e.g. is it in bounds? Is it a null pointer?), and only once it has been validated you make use of the result.

Way back in the day, as a fairly young engineer, I was assigned to a project to get a bunch of legacy code migrated from Alpha to Itanium. The assignment was to "make it compile, run, and pass the tests. Do nothing else. At all."

We were using the Intel C compiler on OpenVMS and every once in a while would encounter a crash in a block of code that looked something like this:

if(ptr != NULL && ptr->val > 0) {
//do something
} else {
//init the ptr
}

It was evaluating both parts of the if statement simultaneously and crashing on the second. Not being allowed to spend too much time debugging or investigating the compiler options, we did the following:

if(ptr != NULL) {
if(ptr->val > 0) {
//do something
}
} else {
//init the ptr
}

Which resolved the problem!

EDIT - I recognize that the above change introduces a potential bug in the program ;) Obviously I wasn't copying code verbatim - it was 10-15 years ago! But you get the picture - the compiler was wonky, even the one you paid money for.

It's actually exactly the same as they way they "managed" projects before Scrum (and before XP, which Scrum itself is a bastardized version of): "tell me everything you're going to do, and then tell me how long it's going to take, and I'll provide value by asking you every day if you're done with it yet. See, I'm justifying why I make more money than you do!"
I understand that batteries have gradual degradation. But they will gradually degrade to the point where range is substantially impacted and that is the time you have to look at selling the car or replacing the battery. Again, I live in a rural area and a vehicle with 150 mile range would not be worth much. The problem is compounded by the harsh winters where I live. It was -35C here last week and that 150 mile range in summer is noticeably impacted in winter.
