Apple does not look at hardware and need to release sooner rather than later. Apple is a software company. When they look at a product category, they think of the software they want running on that.

With a computer you wear on your face, they’ve just released their minimal viable product. You’ll get glasses when they can fit visionOS in them.

In the meantime you can buy glasses from other companies that only take creepy pictures.
Linq does this [0], maybe partially because it's SQL-like but built for working with enumerables instead so they could do what they wanted. One other quirk of SQL ordering that always gets me is that SET comes before WHERE in UPDATE. I always get terrified that I'll run without the WHERE or without selecting the WHERE. Thankfully a good database tool like DataGrip will yell at you if you try to do a modifying operation without a WHERE.

How much information do app devs get when customers disable app notifications from their app entirely? Some apps (especially food delivery.. doordash, i'm looking at you) have such spammy notifications, I tend to disable notifications from the app entirely unless I'm actively using it (eg, an order is pending).
I'm not a huge sports fan. I'd rather play than watch but I did have a SI subscription as a kid. As a teen, I thougfhrly enjoyed the swimsuit editions.

However, IMHO the article has missed it. Article claims that SI is a failure because "Real Journalism" is dying and SI should have used real writers.

I don't think so, SI has been falling (like a lot of print) since the internet. Sports people want to read and talk about sports, SI was that outlet and they've lost the marginal subscriber. Now there are limitless places to go for a sports fix.

SI was doomed from the beginning and lack of "Real Journalism" wouldn't have saved it.

The real interesting question is does the brand still have value (Maybe not 1M/month) and what to do with it now.
Is there another elephant sitting on it called real wage growth?

Not mentioned in the article but touched in the conference is this is at least third time a 500N-class thruster failed on an ISAS probe.

What is the definition of "journalism"? Are there particular examples that you are thinking of for these 'amateurs'? How many 'amateurs' have broken stories which involved going into archives, chasing down leads, interviewing the principles involved, etc?

As compared to [vb]logs (re-)reporting a story that was originally broken by a 'non-amateur'?

>but if they don't do it until 2030, they might as well give up.

Why? PRC is currently extracting the greatest high skill demographic divident in human history in the next 30 years, and even with shit tier TFR they're producing more bodies than any modern military needs, and will continue to under the most pessimestic demographic projections until end of century. They have decades to try and try again, because they can replicate US expeditionary military model with even less than fraction of their population and industrial output. Ultimately IMO PRC doesn't need to dominate, or take over west/really US tier of hyperdominance, which it can't. But that's also exactly why it's fine and even prudent for PRC to take over TW and bring pyrrhic disaster for everyone. In terms of cold interest calculus, the west, being at the top has more to lose, and historically, you displace regional hegemon with force. Meanwhile PRC got plenty of excess/surplus workforce past 2050s for reconstruction. The TLDR is PRC comprehensive power by herself is going to increase / close gap with west. And even if she doesn't want war, structure forces / trends won't dissuade her, and if anything incentivizes escalation.
Record every outstanding project related to operation and maintenance
Project address: https://github.com/eryajf/awesome-ops

Project introduction：

The field of operation and maintenance is so vast that in every sub-category, there are many pioneers who have turned their efforts into open-source projects, and this project is hoping to make a collection of such projects. Whether you are doing operation and maintenance or something else, as long as you are in the technical field, then this carefully selected and categorized project will be your treasure book. The categories and tables in the project are automatically generated through GitHub Action, and each included project is based on yaml file maintenance, which is easier to collaborate.

That said I've missed all the things mentioned. And I don't miss it. Days where IE4, NN4 and a huge margins of stealing browsers existed all at once. Nobody was willing to take the literal hours to download a new browser over dialup. Hell, people rarely ran windows updates.

I still remember IE 5.0 that was on the office 2000 and Windows 2000 disks (not ME). It broke the legacy interface for manipulation of select controls. 5.0.1 fixed that, but it was too late.

I remember when IE8's JSON parsee broke with an error you can't catch if you used the prototype library or similar.

IE4, NN4 and IE5/NN5 had different, largely incompatible interface for dynamic elements. Want a form to show a field based on another field selection, client side and cross browser, omg it was a pain.

Materialism, which by my reading has the most evidence going for it, solves these particular questions rather easily. Your experience as an observer is the result of your brain. It's not another one or none b/c those aren't your particular brains.

This doesn't solve the "hard" problem, it's still quite mysterious how exactly and at what point neuronal mappings become sentient, but it does leave you without having to wonder the particular questions you asked there.
People are messily fractal, individual, and won't sort neatly into boxes. Dealing with them requires individual attention.

Yup. It did. To me the transition happened in front of our eyes because the T2 chip was Apple stopping development of new hardware features on Intel. All that came to T2 could have been done on Intel but Apple was already committed to the switch so they started the work early and made it so they didn’t have to do it twice.
> modern decentralized networking

But the internet is already completely decentralized and has been since the 1990s when we switched from EGP to BGP. EGP used to have a single, global "backbone", BGP doesn't.

The only semi-centralized part of the internet are the regional registries, although IANA is still the supreme numbers authority, but they don't care about what you do with your assigned numbers unless you hijack other numbers or acquired yours fraudulently.
It looks great and all. And it probably serves one use case that Bandcamp serves.

But for me Bandcamp is primarily a collection of music I like, like other people would have a shelf with CDs or Vinyls. This doesn't really do that. "Just install it on your server" probably sounds a lot harder to an average musican than to an average techie as well (sure, there's overlap, but it's not the same).
The problems with aggregated payments go far beyond just ensuring someone can pay hosting and card processing fees. Who will take chargeback risk? Handle KYC for payouts (especially since many garage bands won’t have business entities)? Handle fraud at scale, including fraud rings using your service to validate stolen credit cards?

https://www.candyjapan.com/behind-the-scenes/candy-japan-hit... is an old (2015) but still relevant illustration of this.

Centralizing payments requires human monitoring and capital cushions. With services like Stripe this can be cheaper, but still requires nontrivial resources.

- We still build some 800 - 1500 sq foot living spaces. They're called "condos" or apartments. We should be building a lot more of them, but we do still build some.

- Small bungalows should still be built in rural areas, but they're highly inappropriate in urban areas. The secondary costs of the car-dependent sprawl required by inexpensive single family homes is massive. They may have been built for $6,000 in the 50's but today likely cost the cities that house them more than $6,000 per year in infrastructure maintenance costs.

Every piece of legislation that has anything to do with privacy or surveillance will inevitably be corrupted to make surveillance worse, either directly by inserting or modifying language, or indirectly by interpretation or optimizing right up to the letter of the law, but not the spirit. And then there's the fact that intelligence agencies will just outright lie to oversight bodies. No consequences. We're in a dystopia that still has sunshine, NetFlix, and arguing over trivialities to distract us.
Matt Levine (of MoneyStuff/BBG) covered the events[1] of the oddness that led up to the eventual layoffs. His perspective seems to convey that the layoffs were not a "AI can replace staff" play but more so... there was a lot of shady (or mis-executed) corporate dealing and the layoffs were tied to Arena losing its license.

The reason behind that license loss is a contradiction between the two sources. TechDirt seems to imply that it was a renegotiation tactic where as Levine seems to imply that it was chaotic at post-Merger Arena and they were just dropping the ball on their debt and licensing obligations. Maybe a little of column A and a little of column B.

Brain antennae + consciousness is more complex than just brain consciousness. In the former, we still have to answer "so... what is consciousness then? where is it? how does it couple to the brain? can it be blocked?" In the latter, it's just "consciousness is a property of a brain", and we are only left with the question of how the brain produces it. The antenna theory is just multiplying entities unnecessarily.

What do you suggest people eat then? Air?

The context was, even killing plants is wrong, so we should cook and enjoy those to the best of our ability.

You can say "plants aren't self-aware" or something, but there's no way out of it. Plants might even be home for insects or other creatures which die when you take the plants. Plants are living organisms and you shorten a beetroots life when you tug it out of the ground.

I think the point still stands. Be grateful for each meal and do your best to enjoy and savor it. It's not about "celebrating killing" you injected that into it. It's about showing respect.
Yet another reason to deny notification rights to pretty much everything nonnative, and to restrict the native stuff.

I mean, first, they're disruptive. You don't need to know every time you get an email. Even on my laptop, I only get an email ding if it's from (a) a coworker (and it's a small company) or (b) my wife.

Second, the notification-spam ship has sailed. Apps behave TERRIBLY and abuse the privilege. DoorDash, for example, will spam you with ads using notifications if you turn it on. As a consequence, I just watch the app itself when food delivery is pending -- and so no notifications are required.

I can't. Even this company policy being talked about in this thread is ambigiuose. That's the problem.

He was fired from y combinator and the entire board wanted to fire his ass too.

Therefore by this logic he should have universal support for reinstatement and the entire board should be vilified? Makes no sense. But this is exactly the direction of the Mob and was the general reaction on HN.

It was ambigiuose whether Sam was a problem and that makes ambigiuose treatment and investigation warranted. The proper reaction is: "wtf is going on? Let's find out" Instead what he got was hero worship. The public was literally condemning the board and worshipping the guy with no evidence.

And now with even more ambiguous and suspicious facts everyone here is suddenly "level headed." Yeah that's bs. What's going on is mostly everyone here is just going with the flow and adopting the background trends and sentiments. Mob mentality all the way.

My feature request for iOS:

Allow me to disable notifications from an app unless I have opened it within the last X hours.

I’d set it to a couple hours. My food apps could then tell me the order is ready, but can’t spam me with “Special Offers For You” days later.

Maybe I can do this with an automation?
Depends on the competition format a bit. You can also have rankings and while they are not ideal either, probably it will not be as bad as "send positive competence signal to one person (winner)". For example if you do a single elimination tournament of course people eliminated in first round will get bored and not interested (you can't even make a proper ranking)

Focusing on winners only is a societal choice though. I have met people (in countries were a lot of people like doing sport) that were practicing a sport and joining competitions for years even though they were not very competent in that sport - because it was their hobby and they just enjoyed being there.

That's already something not many newspapers or radio stations do, their content tends to originate from press agencies, verbatim copying police reports, or from syndicate stations as John Oliver pointed out a few years back [1].

Some outlets are even worse, they do just the same but it's not even a human journalist rehashing someone else's content but some kind of AI.

I don't even allow DoorDash to send notifications. They're so spammy and abusive with it that I turned them off, and just keep an eye on the app when an order pending. It's less net annoyance to me.

I allow very few notifications on my phone, and nearly all the exceptions are iOS built-ins like Mail (which I still heavily restrict). Honestly, I think the only non-Apple exceptions are my VOIP softphone and Teams.
My mental model was always that the order of keywords mirrored the order the database engine applied them. So WHERE is processed first and SELECT last.

Also SELECT should be the last clause (at least for row-oriented DBMS, for columnar databases it might come before WHERE, GROUP BY, ORDER BY to hint which columns we want to select to query on).

"Keep in mind that we're not trying to model the internal state of a human machine"

Yes, that is exactly what we are discussing in this thread: Modelling the internal state of the human machine.

The discussion of generating the exact stream of words is otherwise pointless. Fire lz at the collected output and call it a day; it isn't optimal but it's close enough. The entire conversation is whether we could recover the human consciousness from just the historical record.
I don't remember during exactly what period I had an SI subscription (I was much more into sports long ago) but at one point I probably was subscribing to 20 magazines. Today I don't pay for one. (Though I do have a couple of digital subscriptions I pay for.)

It’s much simpler to me than all that. To maintain the growth percentages that Apple has seen, there are only a few markets that Apple can enter to make enough money to keep growing at the same rate. Otherwise growth stops and then the stock price tanks. So Apple needs to get into American healthcare, cars, or housing.

The fact they chose cars is not that it’s a natural fit. It’s that it’s the only fit.
