You can easily experiment with smaller models, for example, Mistral 7B or Phi-2 on M1/M2/M3 processors. With more memory, you can run larger models, and better memory bandwidth (M2 Ultra vs. M2 base model) means improved performance (tokens/second).
Read it in grad school (for an English PhD). And honestly, that's the only context in which I'd recommend doing so. It's a dreary slog of a book; we were reading it more for its historical importance than for any particular literary quality.

But I don't recall anyone at the time (mid 90s) doubting that the book was a forgery -- a somewhat inept mish-mash of Celtic literary figures and motifs. The interesting part was that people went absolutely wild for it. To the point that one can now speak of "Ossianism" as a significant literary movement.
The fact that you compare iA Writer with Scrivener is pretty funny.

The first is an overpriced minimalist lifestyle app. It has some value, but definitely not what they sell it for. The app is a rather simple development with a low number of features, most of it can be found in many equivalent apps, for free or close to that.

The second is an actual tool that handles a lot of complexity inherent in writing large bodies of work with a lot of features. They sell it for barely more money than iA even though the development and support cost must be much higher.

You complaining about old looks and the niche features of Scrivener illustrate exactly what is wrong and rotten about the Apple platforms in general: the cult of minimalist bullshit that results in basically useless software that only achieve one thing, looking good.
Even macOS has largely suffered from the trend it is extremely appalling but since this is a trend that shows up in Apple owns software, I don't think there is much hope to be had.

The point is that Scrivener is a mostly done work and there is not much left to do, change for the sake of change doesn't make any sense even if it might please your sense for new looks or whatever.

The design trends are irrelevant for what is a tool, and just like a good screwdriver that looks old is still good 20 years later, a good software that looks old is still good 20 years later provided you are able to run it.

And this is exactly the point of owning software. The developers won't be responsible for it running well on the latest system, but it will run with the original setup as long as you can keep it or recreate it one way or another. That is the only thing asked and it is fair.

While sometimes there are meaningful improvements to some software, it is mostly a sales tactic, especially used by Apple to market questionnable changes and features that end up costing more than they are worth very often (time and money).

In fact, I would argue that Apple has created this whole update argument nonsense in order to force people to buy new hardware and make it easier and cheaper for them to maintain their systems. I think it is not right that macOS system have such low support time, especially with the embedded browser when you paid so much for it. Being able to update is not a good argument since not only do they change the performance profile of what you bought in many ways but sometimes they even remove features or break compatibility on purpose.

At least back then you could downgrade easily but now with Apple Silicon it's almost the same bullshit as iOS devices.

Subscription only makes sense if you have running cost (server software, or infrastructure bits) but is mostly nonsense for most consumers' use cases. You need to purposefully introduce breaking changes or shallow superficial reason for it to exist. Which is exactly what Apple is doing, because money...
There is an additional element of bad timing for seemingly unrelated issues. Since December 2023 several other issues have cropped up that, related or not and whether or not Boeing’s fault, make it a tough time to trust Boeing is competent when added all together.

Just a day or two ago a Boeing serving a flight from Atlanta to Bogota lost a nose wheel.

The public is understandably starting to have a negative association with Boeing. This is a big problem for the US in broader terms because they’re the only large scale passenger jet manufacturing company we have and represent an important strategic asset.

Are you thinking of "Wire wrap construction" perhaps?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_wrap
> This exploits a design flaw in hotspot-like networks and allows the attacker to force an access points to encrypt yet to be queued frames using an adversary-chosen key, thereby bypassing Wi-Fi encryption entirely. Our attacks have a widespread impact as they affect various devices and operating systems (Linux, FreeBSD, iOS, and Android) and because they can be used to hijack TCP connections or intercept client and web traffic

Interesting approach, that seems to be limited to Hotspots or am I getting this wrong?
“Despite 2FA” is the wrong way for the article to describe it. The sim swap was specifically done to get around text-message-based 2FA.

Everybody should lock their SIMs. But the real problem is the reliance on SMS “authentication”

DHTML in this context stood for Dynamic HTML, not “distributed”, hence the Dynamic of Dynamic Drive.

FedCM Update January 2024
It's not hyperbole when he listed multiple examples and issues which clearly highlight why he calls it that.

I don't think there was anything hyperbolic or disrespectful in that post at all. If I was a maintainer there and someone put in the effort to list out the specific issues like that I would be very happy for the feedback.

People need to stop seeing negative feedback as some sort of slight against them. It's not. Any feedback should be seen as a gift, negative or positive alike. We live in a massive attention-competition world, so to get anyone to spend the time to use, test and go out of their way to even write out in detail their feedback on something you provide is free information. Not just free information, but free analysis.

Really wish that we could all understand and empathize with frustration on software has nothing to do with the maintainers or devs unless directly targeted.

You could say possibly that the overall tone of the post was "disrespectful" because of its negativity, but I think receiving that kind of post which ties together not just the issues in some bland objective manner but highlights appropriately the biggest pain points and how they're pain points in context of a workflow is incredibly useful.

I am constantly pushing and begging for this feedback on my work, so to get this for free is a gift.
>So maybe you know that /etc/passwd one way to get that stream on your system, and you decide to use awk for this problem, and type

>awk -F: '$6 ~ "bash$" { print $1 }' /etc/passwd

I like to apply similar logic to when I use search engines and start broad, narrowing down as needed. If you jump straight to grep or awk you may entirely miss what you were looking for. I frequently search my local IRC logs, and my tool of choice is `less`. I would probably also use that here. You can comfortably get around, all the data is there, and you can search within it. You see adjacent lines which may be relevant to your interests.

You could maybe describe this difference in mindset as programmers vs users. I consider myself a user, but not a programmer. Just as in your example, I thought to look in /etc/passwd for the desired info, but I don't understand why you jumped to that gnarly awk one-liner. Maybe the missing context is you were writing some sort of script/program, but the way you framed it read to me like "I want to get this information on a unix-like machine", and as a human I would just open the file in less. Using cat is another option, but I hate when a file was longer than expected and I have to scroll way up after printing it out. Plus, it's easier to search the text with less than it is in my terminal emulator (though tmux scrollback search helps in a pinch).

I find that the unix approach to things often feels intuitive from a user-perspective where the cranky programmers who insist using python would be better than working with shell have some alternative solution I can't really grok. Maybe it's just people preferring what they're used to, though.

Musk has gotten increasingly more outspoken with all of his views and has certainly said some eyebrow raisers but the anti-Musk narrative just makes my eyes roll.

MSM clearly loves writing about him (how else will they fill the void of showing us Trump tweets everyday?) Many people just follow the establishment narrative and billionaires and government officials are the easiest boogeyman before you have to give it some thought.

I will continue to like people for the good things they do and focus my criticism on their actions rather than the person.

The boomers are entering the biggest year of retirement. More then ever have put their retirement funds into 'safe' or 'low risk' which means bonds, which means money should be negative rates right now. Which we have seen on the worse off WW2 countries like germany and japan.

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2019/nov/22/germanys-ri...

https://asia.nikkei.com/Economy/Bank-of-Japan/BOJ-lays-groun...

Yet here we are with high rates.

https://tradingeconomics.com/united-states/central-bank-bala...

The USA printed a ton of money. Set that graph to max. The rate they are paying that down, there's no chance of success.

With rates high, that means landlords have to charge more. If there's a group of landlords who must charge more, everyone else can as well and they will. Afterall inflation is high, cost of living is higher. They have to charge more.

Now consider who is paying the inflation tax.

If your debt is secured at a fixed low rate. You're laughing. At current rates I'm earning $30,000/year.

If you don't hold any cash or cash-likes. You're laughing.

But if you're the person who has a bond which matures with 2% rate and inflation is 5%. You're literally giving the government free money.

If you're a retiree who is legally obligated through your fund to invest in ways that are 'safe'. The government is getting a huge paycheque from you.

Funny - I heard about the finale before I saw it, so I figured there would be a lot of ambiguity, but it was quite obvious to me that it was “lights out” for Tony so to speak. I suppose that speaks well for it that we are able to take our own meaning.
I always found weird all these discussions about what exists and what not exists in that there is a distinct lack of focus on what existence means.

Even if the only thing to exists (existence level 0, if you wish) was some vague "cognitive activity" would I not exist (existence level 1) in that cognition?

Unless you assume that there is a certain divine level and you are conjecturing about your relative existence compared to it what is the object of talking about the possibility of non-existence?

In my mind this is similar to the theological mind-trip about the universe being a simulation; it is clear that I exist in some sense, rather than focusing on whether my existence is fake or "not real existence" is it not more reasonable to focus on how my existence relates to other existences?

The author seems to miss a lot of git internals : the name and email in the commit message are nothing but text, everybody can write anything. The one who wrote a commit may not be the one who push the commit in github (or in any kind of remote). But reading the "pro/con" at the end of the article should be enough to throw the whole things away :/
this is fine with me, but it shouldnt replace the existing panel, instead augment the panelists with it. It could analyze the rotations and timings much more closely and replay/study it at a more technical level.

NIMBYism is an issue, but I've seen enough to conclude that I firmly believe the core problem is private equity and the way they unify rent across their property.

For example: The area I last lived in (Austin outskirts) my apartment wasn't anything special, there were new units popping up around me and it was fairly far from anything major. When I left in late 2022, they tried to give me a renewal offer that was a 40% increase in rent.

Most of the apartments around me were Greystar and of course, they all went up at the same rate and time.
A friend-of-a-friend lived on a narrowboat for a year while we were at university.

It was all fairly straightforward, although maintenance cost more than he expected, and he was surprised to find he couldn't just moor it in central London — 'parking' is limited and restricted there.

You'll find plenty of people have written about this, e.g. https://livingonanarrowboat.co.uk/. You could also search "narrowboat holidays" and see if you can hire a boat for 6 months.

I don't think being non-UK will make any difference. You can visit the UK for up to 6 months as a tourist.

I don't know why HN is so anti-Peterson. He has been tremendously helpful to me, and 12 Rules for Life helped me a lot when I was going through self-inflicted tough times.

The article derides him for for stating platitudes, truisms, and cliches (I am actually surprised that the article didn't include that word) in new and interesting ways. However, that is exactly what he is popular for in the first place. A more charitable way to put that, might be to say that he restates old-timey wisdom in new and interesting ways. Of course this is going to appeal to conservatives, and bring struggling young people to the conservative side.

Between Jordan Peterson and C.S. Lewis, I rediscovered a lot of wisdom that my parents tried to teach me. I learned to respect old and ancient ideas. Ideas aren't "wrong" because they're old, and also they aren't right or good because they're new. People throughout history was smarter and wiser than we give them credit for.

Maybe if more "serious" intellectuals (whatever that means), moved past the "new=good and old=bad" groove, they might start enjoying some popularity too.

My point is that Jordan Peterson is re-introducing some very true, but old ideas. These old ideas are very helpful to a lot of people, especially disenfranchised young men. These young men then use the old ideas to get their lives together, and that is why Jordan Peterson is popular.

> "He shows a culture bereft of ideas, a politics without inspiration or principle."

No, he shows us the gold that our intellectuals threw on the rubbish heap, because they thought it was junk. And just because they still think it is junk, doesn't actually make it junk.

> I’m fairly sure but not certain the exact same thing can be done on iPhone - the Apple ID is required for the store, not the device

I know, but an iPhone is not very useful with just the standard apps, most of which also require an Apple ID by the way.

At least on Android you can sideload everything you need (which is what I do actually - I never log in to a Google account on my Androids)

> Why compare apples (ha) to oranges, that is iPhone to Windows?

Because this model is what both Apple and Microsoft want to go towards. The chance to skim 30% off the top of every app purchase is something they deeply want. The only reason it's not enforced on macOS and Windows is that users will feel like something is being taken away from them.

On Windows it's now necessary to disconnect from the internet to make the local account option appear, and macOS is constantly reminding you with nags and red dots on the configuration panel ("Finish set-up of your new mac") to create an Apple ID.
