Exactly this. I vividly remember watching that first public demo and thinking "sure, this is OK but touch screens are really annoying to use". When I saw Jobs flick through a list of contacts (or whatever it was) I was blown away. Finally somebody had made touch screens useful.

I am sure someone with quibble that some other product technically had something similar first, and they are probably right. But the iPhone demo was the first time I had seen anything quite like it.
You can definitely point out some processor decisions that seemed poor in hindsight, but the fact is nothing in Intel's lineup at the time was any good for a laptop.

Maybe they were worse than they needed to be, but the best they could have been with Intel would have still left so much to be desired.
I think Windbound[0] does a decent job. Maybe not; I haven’t advanced much. But there is some compelling mystery it offers, which also seems to promise a payoff in the end. Also some clear milestones to hit in the form of “““reaching locations””” and “““activating things”””.

I never really “got into it”, as it were, but it has all the right pieces for a good survival-craft. Rogue-lite too, if I’m not mistaken.

I guess i'd presume that with the billions of dollars someone would probably have to kick at a project like this that that'd use active stabilization[0] all over the place if the hull ended up being too rocky.

I liked Pokemon Sun and Moon and not just because I moed hard for Lusamine.

I thought it struck a good balance of story and gameplay and I like the way characters were revealed. I thought it was a huge missed opportunity that it didn’t take advantage of stereoscopy on the 3DS but I guess they didn’t want the 3DS to upstage the switch or maybe they couldn’t decide if Lusamine’s hair formed a cone or a sheet.

I have some software that works like Disney’s multi plane camera and have wanted to cut up some art from that game and make some stereo dioramas but had the excuse that I could only make lousy anaglyph images but now that I have the MQ3 I’d really better do it.
Social media is the fastest today. Probably even TikTok. It matters for some things - floods, wars. There's enough paranoia that advance warning helps; it was useful when we had waves of on and off COVID lockdowns. I like to have a month's groceries at home but it's bad when every damn person in town is buying months of groceries at once.

HN is quite fast too, almost too fast. It'll probably be off the front page by the time I'm awake. But not for political news.
Oh, right, I agree. I guess my further point is that I'd prefer that after you close the sale and finish the transaction, you're sure you have the money. Cash and some electronic transfers give you that, while checks don't.
Well, the fact that both Microchip and Nordic Semiconductor are shipping actual chips based on RISC-V says that if it's not this year, the year is really close.
Did the author really upgrade from a X220? If so, wow what an upgrade. These caught my eye but my Linux computer is a T480 and despite the i5-8350U getting a bit long in the tooth, it is still going strong. I did upgrade the memory to 32GB, the NVME drive to 1TB, and added some WiFi 6 support via a AX200NGW swap.

What does the previous ball have to do with it? We KNOW the previous ball is red. Then it asks "more likely to be red" It seems pretty obvious that it is saying draw the next ball, which is more likely? Red, green, equal.
Why would you think it is comparing the second pick probability to the first pick probability?
The whole point of Threads seemed to be the flex that they could blitzkrieg their app to market at the precise moment that Musk was floundering with the service and shedding users

Even Bluesky with a ex-Twitter folk and have been seemingly developing a competing platform couldn’t execute like that. Mastadon was in no position to capitalize like that.

It wasn’t to force users to use the mouse. It was to force developers to create software that used the new paradigm rather than just porting over CLI apps.

Apple still uses this tactic a lot, and it’s one of the things that irritates people most about them. I’m glad they do it, but it’s understandable why it pisses people off.
Well, yeah. It is a surprise to me.

They're linked up heavy with dirtbag fraudsters, and pedophiles.

Nobody I know/see in my social circles has ever linked to threads or really ever talked about it, in contrast everyone is linking tweets fairly often and X/twitter gets mentioned often. Just my observation.

Simply false brand-oriented thinking.
> Also, for what it's worth, you're citing "carry quarters" as some kind of dystopic microaggression

Uh, yeah, it actually WAS. Quarters were a non-trivial amount of currency (a little under a gallon of gas) back when downtowns still existed and parking meters took them.

There is a reason why "meter maids" were hated so much.
> to be fair there is an awful lot of copying and extending in place

That's how technology proliferates. The point is if the M1 wasn't innovative, that rules out pretty much everything AMD, Intel and potentially even NVIDIA have done in the last three decades.
I don’t get the idea of having a separate pressure hull for your helicopter hangar. Surely if your submarine is compromised to the point of needing the pressure hull you are long past the point where your helicopter is going to save you.

Guys, don't get distracted by all the new mysterious causes of Alzheimers.

Alzheimers is "brain diabetes". You get it from a lifetime of eating carbs and developing insulin resistance.

To me, 3D home recording playback is a huge use case.

Why would you want presence in an action movie? Cool, in an exciting sort of way.

But presence in recording of your family? That's powerful stuff, for everyone!

That feels like the long-term hook. iCloud to handle obscene storage amounts as a service. iPhone to generate new recordings. Vision to play back recordings.

And the dastardly brilliant part is... the more 3D video you record... the more valuable a Vision is to you.

>> Capturing -- One of the more remarkable things to watch? Your own home 3-D movies. Apple introduced “spatial video” for the iPhone 15 Pro a few months ago, and I started recording my sons with it. Watching the videos in 3-D in the headset now is almost like reliving the moment. The Vision Pro also captures these videos and photos—you just hold down a button on the top left.
I run all my workloads in AWS on armchips. It's half the cost for just as good of an experience on my side.

That's not really a fair criticism. SAFe is very complex and overkill for small organizations. But if you're managing a huge product portfolio with multiple teams spread across the world and need to deal with external priorities then SAFe is kind of the least bad way to keep everything somewhat sane. Sprints are never planned more than 3 months in advance, and often less. SAFe has provisions for some teams to run continuous flow (Kanban) with minimal advance planning.

Some feedback from my wife, who started using Quazel to practice French after your previous Show HN:

---

Gameification sounds like something that should be either left for later, or very subtle. It's a great product as is. Maybe later you could have different trouble words fly at the user like soap bubbles and you have to say the word twice to pop them. That might make the drilling/practice more fun. A reward could be a joke in the language they are trying to learn?

Another user left a comment about being distracted by seeing their words written out as they talk. I need that feature left in because on occasion the microphone thinks I've said one thing, and really I have said another. It's rare, and completely due to my accent, but it does happen
I worked at (American drink company in Japan) previously and saw what the poster may be referring to.

Management Consulting sells ideas, many of them silly or not important that are marketed and packaged as era-defining. A manager who implements #FASHIONABLE_IDEA can look forward to upwards mobility, while boring, realistic, business-focused ideas from people in the trenches usually get ignored (unless you want a lateral transfer to a similar job). hashtag-collection-of-ideas is much easier to explain when the time comes for the next step up.

This explains why you get insane things like Metaverse fashion shows that barely manage to look better than a liveleak beheading video. These sorts of things might seem like minor distractions, but getting these sorts of boondoggles up and running creates stress and drowns out other concerns. Once the idea is deployed, the success or failure of the idea is of minimal importance, it must be /made/ successful so that $important_person can get their next job.

These projects starve companies of morale, focus and resources. I recall the struggle for a ~USD $20k budget on a project to automate internal corporate systems, while some consultants received (much) more than 10 times that amount for a report that basically wound up in the bin.

Oddly, this sort of corporate supplication to management consultants worked out for me (personally). I was a dev who wound up as a manager and was able to deliver projects internally, while other decent project managers could not get budget and wound up looking worse for something that wasn't their fault.

I don't think any of the projects brought by management consultants really moved the needle in any meaningful way while I worked for any BigCos.
There are plenty of people who still use nothing but a CLI text editor like vim. Nothing wrong with sticking with simpler tools. And as you point out, if you’ve got good keyboard shortcuts, using the terminal for most of the fancy stuff an IDE does is just as quick and often more flexible.

You’ll see more IDE use in the .Net and Java worlds. The startup environment is much more diverse. And honestly, the VSCode bandwagon is pretty new, too. Until 5 years ago, Sublime and its ilk were the default. I for one still find IDEs unergonomic and am sticking with my text editor of choice.

The one downside to a plain text editor is that you wont be able to integrate well with coding assistance features like copilot, or get some of the tools an IDE gives you for minor refactoring and other common tasks.

> Datacenters were and still are full of monstrous Xeons, and for a good reason.

To ask the foolish question, why? My guess would be power efficiency. I've only ever seen them in workstations, and in that use-case it was the number of cores that was the main advantage.
But how will my 10Gb StarLink work?

> Matte screen – Why are shiny screens an option? Who wants that?

Because the matte diffuser doesn't just obscure glare, it diffuses the light emitted from the screen. Glass/glossy screens look noticeably sharper at the expense of glare.

I'd love it if a glossy option was available for the framework once they introduce higher resolution displays, right now it looks pretty cheap.
Those numbers aren't new inflows of capital into Bitcoin. They're the total volume traded both buys and sells. There are traders, market makers, etc both buying and selling many times a day, and anyone wanting to make large block trades can get a sufficiently modest piece of that. 5% is very achievable with very little price impact even in markets with lower liquidity than Bitcoin.
I'm not sure why you think it is ill posed.
The question is, you randomly pick a ball, IF it is red then...
So yeah, it is basically the same as "someone else removes a red ball" now randomly select a ball.
OR Pick a ball, is the color of the second ball more likely to be the same as the first, different, or equal. That is really the question here.

edit: After thinking about it some more, it is NOTHING like handing the bag to someone else and having them remove a red ball. The whole point to the first draw is to draw the ball randomly. I think my second statement is still true.
But to your original question, if the first ball isn't red, then the question is invalid (and you can't throw the ball in and choose again)
The [indexed] web died before that because Google is already "forgetting" things in the indexer that were always there. I bet that Google/Alphabet already knows that these are the last shots.

I have been daily driving the same machine for a couple months. Would buy again. Upgraded from a Macbook Pro – the Framework hardware lacks Apple’s level of refinement but it’s decent.

Intel did screw up and get stuck on 14nm for far too long. But then does Apple deserve credit for TSMC's process advantage? AMD was never stuck in the way Intel was, and they have had the performance crown since for most kinds of workloads. I suppose Apple figured if they were going to switch chip vendors again it might as well be to themselves.

proteins themselves are turing complete; the folding is not really the interesting bit. just like there is a turing tarpit, trying to do anything reliable with protein folding (the process) is not likely to be effective.
Instead, merely use existing functions provided by evolution to manage a DNA tape. You don't even need proteins; you can do it with just RNA and DNA. If you're really clever, with just RNA, and if you're super clever, just DNA.
Why so defensive about Intel? I think you're the one doing the brand-oriented thinking here.
> It turns out, for years, popular terminals have supported 24-bit color. And yet they’re rarely used.

Hard to say how rarely. I've been using 24-bit color in bash prompts and neovim scheme for a while. Can't go back to 16 or 256 color ones, they are just too limited.

I wish tty terminal also supported 24-bit color.

For setting the color in bash I use something like:

printf "\x1b[38;2;${r};${g};${b}m"

or

printf "\x1b[${f};38;2;${r};${g};${b}m"

If I need to set extra bits like bold.
That is true of LLMs, but if you’re looking to replace iTalki, the standard to meet or beat on grammar correctness and explanation is that of a human instructor - this is not the type of mistake that my native tutor would make, and if he somehow did, I would find a new tutor that I could be confident is teaching me correct grammar.

I certainly don’t point it out to be discouraging - on the contrary, I feel like I am the exact target audience for a product like this and would happily pay for it if it can reach or be near the trustworthiness of a human teacher.

My first thought on this is, half the time there will be more red balls in the container. IF you draw a red ball first, you are more likely to be in the half that had more red balls. Therefore you are more likely to draw a second red ball.
Yes, a small percent of the time you will be in the case that there are more green balls (maybe you got unlucky and pick the 1 red ball!) So my guess is that it isn't a huge percent higher, but it is more likely to be a red ball.
