> People like you are why I never ask for reasonable accommodations for my disability, even when I am having serious health problems.

Fair warning: when people like you break down and go AWOL, you end up on the radar of people like me. Then it gets handled as a semi-public security incident instead of the confidential medical issue it should have been. Once I reach out to your colleagues trying to figure out what the fuck is going on, rumors start spreading.

Your aversion to accepting accommodations only hurts you. If you need help, you must ask. Losing control of your own narrative is nobody's fault but yours.
Maybe I'm odd, but I much prefer the Thinkpad's body to the Macbook (I have both). I don't like the coldness of the metal chassis, either on my palms or on my legs if using it away from a desk. Thinkpad plastic does not feel cheap or weak to me, so that's not an issue.

I also can't stand the Mac keyboard, especially compared to the Thinkpad.
And how has that definition worked out for any tech company in the last 30 years?

How has any FTC action worked against a tech company in 30 years? Even Microsoft just got a slap on the wrist

In this case of Apple, we had a real judge in the Epic case saying that Apple is not a monopoly
Husbands can be divorced. Alimony/child support can be ordered.
> In addition to the conference itself, the gathering features off-site events and sponsored parties at luxe locations like the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center. Those kinds of outings are important to attend, especially for individuals who are just starting their career, Lord said.

> "We understand that the individual appeared at a nearby venue, as a local, on the invitation of a former colleague who is completely unassociated with Reveal. Moreover, he was not with Reveal employees at the venue and was present completely of his own accord."

I mean we can totally speculate what's considered "at the conference" in its culture all we want, I ended the argument with an "In any case...".
They don't believe that because they're innumerate, they believe that because the 2020 election was conducted under extraordinary circumstances that are unlikely to repeat. The rest of your points thus have the causality reversed.
Mark Russinovich: "There is industry consensus on moving away from C/C++"
It's part of the reason Apple has so few SKUs compared to others, because everything is conjoined; Dell will have five SKUs that are identical except two removable pieces (RAM and SSD) are varying sizes.
It does if you select use device location
Actually, FastUI is repeating the same thing. It's cool but don't we get the same thing if we return HTML instead of JSON, combined with HTMX? We rely on the browser and battle-tested Django forms. No need to invent the wheel.

How do you explain throwing or joint-locking an opponent to someone who does not believe they have a right or a left arm? Both of these actions can involve turning around. Anywhere from 45º to 360º.
An organization like Mozilla may have more resiliency against distributing something malicious, as they define "malicious".

An individual may be more likely to agree with your own definition of "malicious".
All the extra mass budget would likely be better spent on a more robust attitude control system to avoid flopping over in the first place. Unless you need it for something else anyway.
Retaliate how?
I don't generally believe in orchestrators (they miss the point, things are not single computers and neither is the world) and so I have that feedback here but also for:

Which don't really think about modelling non-centralized things.

This of course doesn't mean they're not useful, it's just that they don't have what I believe is a good long-term value proposition.

I'm incredibly biased because I'm working on programmatic, real-time modelling of distributed systems with https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/
Sure they can, especially on old things like air-cooled VW Beetles.
Since PRC represents "Chinese" territory at UN, one is illegal trespassing, other is self defense. US physically inserting itself in PRC territory during a legally ongoing civil war and eventually getting slapped is perfectly "legal", whether legality matters in international law when great powers interest clash is another matter.

I have taught JS, HTML/CSS, and Java at the highschool level, and learned a lot about breaking down coding concepts and communicating about them. I went through a software engineering bootcamp with Flatiron School to learn more, and am continuing to hone my skills and learn new technologies. I would love to work in a remote team-based environment for a company or organization with a mission and positive organizational culture.
You’re just not clued into the lingo. This person is an ideologue and is trying to hide it somewhat but is failing to completely omit the use of language that reveals the leftist ideology they have been swimming in.

Few people on HN can read this kind of critique without short circuiting but it’s a valid critique and I would bet a good sum that if you looked into this author you’d find lots more direct evidence of promulgation of leftist ideology (critical theory)

So what you’re saying is you can’t find a better performance per watt, AMD “comes close.”

You are doing the spec monkey thing again. You changed the spec. I chose performance per watt and now you’ve changed it to performance per dollar.

Under a performance per dollar logic AMD makes the best PC graphics card on the market, which they obviously don’t in terms of total performance. Nvidia charges a huge price/performance premium on the RTX4090 because you can’t buy that performance elsewhere. Sound familiar?

> So the only example you can come up with is performance per watt

I’ve got another one: media encoding. Apple’s systems obliterate the rest.

If your argument is that CUDA is important I hate to say it but you’re actually reverting to that whole “product ecosystem and experience” angle that you were deriding in the same breath. Nvidia users have to buy Nvidia because it’s the only way to use Nvidia software. Kind of like how iOS developers and Final Cut Pro users must buy a Mac? “Yeah, nothing but apple exists in an apple fanboy's mind.” You could replace that statement with “Nvidia” under your own preferences.

Under the spec monkey argument someone buying a graphics card should ignore Nvidia’s CUDA ecosystem and buy an AMD graphics card that offers better performance per dollar. But you’re saying that the lack of CUDA on a Mac is a major downside. Which is it? Performance per dollar or user experience and ecosystem?

This is why doing the spec monkey thing turns us around and around in circles. I’m not being an Apple fanboy I’m just pointing out how it’s completely reasonable for an expensive computer to not prioritize supporting a zillion monitors.
>There was nothing stopping other enormous companies to compete on quality and customer service, but they decided against that.

I mean, are we pretending that Microsoft also isn't a trillion dollar company? They are the only one with an incentive to do that strategy, but they probably got a good share of money from licensing their platform to other OEMs.

The next closest thing to "full OS vertical integration" are game consoles. Specialized devices focused on entertainment instead of general purpose ones.
Yep, jQuery isn't an obvious choice if you want performance:

I always keep an eye on those, but certified refurbished from manufacturers (whether Apple or Dell or HP, etc) are really good deals, quite often, and a known quantity.

I've no problem buying certified refurbished for work, whereas for home eBay off-lease is more acceptable because I know it's me dealing with issues if they crop up.
Because the point is to listen, not solve problems.

If you told me "ugh today was a really hard day at work" and I said "why don't you quit? then you wouldn't have hard days at work anymore!" would you feel heard?
Erlang's briefly mentioned at the end of the article:

> There are two other languages I found with graph types: Erlang and SWI-Prolog. I don’t know either language and cannot tell when they were added; with Erlang, at least, it was before 2008. I reached out to a person on the Erlang core language committee but did not hear back.
In the fall of 2022, a U.S. intelligence assessment put the odds at 50-50 that Russia would launch a nuclear strike to halt Ukrainian forces if they breached its defense of Crimea.

Much more likely today is that NATO would launch a nuclear strike to halt Russian forces if they advanced too close to "NATO's Borders".

"NATO's Borders" is a term used a lot by NATO, except that NATO is not a country. And only individual countries can have borders.
The only non-user friendly defaults in the Mac purchasing flow are the 8G RAM and 256G SSD. I think in 2024, 16G & 512G should be the default, with an option to downgrade.

With such bloated webapps now a days, those 8G of RAM are going to cook too fast...
M3 Pro gets to 36GB, the M3 Max can do 128GB
I think what's often underestimated is actually the performance improvement you get from removing trackers.

I did so 2 months ago for our landing page and it now loads 4 times faster [1].

Fun fact. All the tracking I removed I am not missing at all because I actually never used it [2].

Put Maverick in there. He'll make that work.
I don't disagree but on the other hand, I never run into problems with the language model being censored because I am not asking it to write bad words just so I can post online that it can't write bad words.

Both sides in this to me need to get a life.

We might have different definitions of 'died.' Approximately a hundred thousand non-spam posts a month in the text heirarchy and hundreds of terabytes a month in the binaries seems like a living system to me. I accept that this might not be enough for others to bother with.
there are AMD chips being sold right now that don't even support HDMI Org VRR let alone AV1 decode.

and those skylake laptops are stuck on HDMI 1.4b, so they top out at effectively 1080p60, but sure, you get three of them. And the DP/thunderbolt tops out at 4K60 non-HDR with crappy decode support, and you get at most like 2 ports per laptop.

the grass isn't always greener, there's lots of pain points with x86 hardware too. heck, those celerons you're so fond of are down to literally a single memory channel by this point. is a single stick going to be enough raw bandwidth for a developer that wants to be compiling code etc?
No, there is no fallacy here. You’re just ignorant. There are several signifying phrases and terms used here that are commonly used by people who have absorbed critical theory ideology.
No, I don't owe him anything, and it is not "based on nothing" -- it's based on its being a piece with no original reporting. And he says "out of print" as if to excuse the lack of any content from those books.

And as for "without indexing every bit of research they've done" is just gaslighting, or something. How about anything that a casual web search wouldn't turn up?
That solves the browser.

What about colima vm for docker? Intellij, gradle daemon, android studio, xcode, electron apps, android virtual device, slack, spring boot apps, iMovie, Davinci Resolve, python notebooks?

Phones now have more than 8gb of RAM
> There was no profit incentive for creating Git. It still got created and became popular.

That's not the whole story.

There was lots of profit incentive behind Github. And is was Github that won, not Git. Git was carried along as a parasite.
What do you expect a definition to do?
Why Do We Need So Much Tracking? We Don't
Congrats on getting this out there. Looks slick. I’ll take a look tomorrow when I’m back at a computer with a larger screen.
Here's a video of a similar Dutch event where they threw a bunch of 1U servers.

If your spouse married you for your money, then you probably should get divorced. Unless of course you only wanted a "trophy", in which case you got exactly what you bargained up for.

(And don't say you married for kids if you spend all your time at work instead of with them.)
From Wikipedia[1]:

When X is an n×n diagonal matrix then exp(X) will be an n×n diagonal matrix with each diagonal element equal to the ordinary exponential applied to the corresponding diagonal element of X.

Perhaps that's what GP meant?

Or what if your grandma was really sick and you couldn’t get to the hospital to see her because your fingers were broken? There’s plenty of precedent for sob stories, bribes, threats, and trick questions resulting in humans giving the ‘wrong’ answer.
It also forces the next generation of scientists to repeat the same mistakes instead of learning from the past.

Of course it would be easier still to learn from mistakes if academic research allowed for more honesty about negative or undecipherable results, but that's another issue.

It's still orders of magnitude easier to do some in-depth analysis on a paper in your chosen field to see if it looks like a load of BS than to get funding and conduct a study yourself to see if a hypothesis pans out with some kind of meaningful result.
Are you suggesting the M2/M3 are "underpowered"?

Please post links to benchmarks of a windows laptop that costs the same as a base model Apple laptop but is faster, while being similar in weight, battery life and heat.
You can get a refurbished Air direct from Apple for $749. Cheaper from other places online.
It is absolutely not bait. Declarative programming for the web is certainly more pleasant, but direct DOM manipulation will always and forever have a performance upper hand over rendering frameworks that sit atop the DOM. Now this performance difference is usually negligible, but for projects like VSCode or this, there’s a very good reason they aren’t written using frameworks.
FhG and Dolby did eventually put up a list of patents you are licensing from them.

It makes for some funny reading if you're familiar with the field. (This should not be construed as legal advice as to the validity of the pool)
Capturing content like that is something you'd do with GPU passthrough, not virtio drivers.
God forbid a novice user learns things and becomes a power user. Memory is so cheap, there's literally no reason these machines should not have 16gb.
When governments get involved in free markets - isn't the thing that makes this situation worse that the market becomes even less free? I can't understand your reasoning here yet.
I've had a Subpac for years, never really considered the applications for the deaf. But it would be great. Really, seriously elevates music. But I imagine you get a lot of the same feeling already during concerts.
The grocery chain example has one very important difference: You can choose to buy Apple - they aren't a monopoly by any means in any market. Whereas with the grocery chains - you must go to the store in California or not get groceries.

I think Peter Thiel's logic is flawed. Apple does not conglomerate, does not have a monopoly in any sense, and has actively avoided those situations. In order to please shareholders it does need to innovate and attempt new markets (Project Titan is a good example).

Microsoft in the 90s was completely different - they wanted domination.
Astronauts must be nervous stepping onto the first manned flight of a new craft that has a 100% success rate in the sole previous flight, but might have only a 50% success rate by the end of their mission...
To be fair the actual benefit of AI is more software than hardware driven.

I imagine apple is waiting for the hardware to be such that it’s cheap to do on device, and then see what types of software use cases are best.
We also do a desktop in a browser, but some core differences are you can launch real browsers in our environment and essentially load any web-based app you want collaboratively. It also does screen sharing and has A/V for meetings (we are not open source though, and have a paid product):

Knowing how difficult it is to build something like this, Puter definitely deserves praise.
I stopped engaging with your parent because they were not arguing in good faith. The post you were replying to is an example of Motte-and-bailey fallacy. The only reason they are talking about the Samaritans is because they failed argue that West Bank Settlers have any right to the land, so they turned to the much more reasonable argument that an indigenous religious minority should have rights as a group.

Note that this etno-religious minority numbers fewer than a 1000 people, only about 400 live in the occupied West Bank (and honestly, I haven’t asked them, but I would be very surprised if they were happy with the occupation). It is obvious from the early points that parent was arguing for something with much grander stakes than this tiny minority.

Not only that but your parent explicitly mentioned Jewish people earlier (obviously referring to illegal settlers), while from what I know about the Samaritan minority is that their religion related to Judaism while still distinct, so I question whether it is actually accurate to refer to them as Jewish.

In other threads your parent actually crossed the line and started attacking me as a person. Wrongly claiming my position is pro-colonial https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39497508 Which kind of feels like the poster is trying to Kafkatrap[1] me.

I think it's just really hard to assess the performance of LLMs.

Also AI safety is the stated reason for Anthropic's existence, we can't be angry at them for making it a priority.
Well, you're wrong. A monopoly is when there are no viable alternatives. "Mono" meaning "one".

Firefox presented not only a viable alternative, but was a demonstrably better browser. According to this site [0] Firefox peaked at 47.5% (vs IE 40.2%).

That is reversing a browser monopoly. Period.

I've swam out by this plan a few times. Its a popular boating spot.
Let’s see how much scrutiny my professional development budget gets…
We are in a sad state of bloat. 99% of what people do on their computers now goes through a web browser, and opening lots of tabs chews through RAM like nothing else.
jquery isn't on that list
To make matters worse, people often run graph algorithms on graphs that are too large to store, the details of which are generated on the fly at each step of the algorithm from the definition of the graph.
Generalized pointers (RAM addresses, disk storage locations, network locations, etc.) would be the general way to implement explicit literal graphs.

Other graphs, that are partly or wholly computed or recomputed as needed from other relationships, could be considered "implicit" graphs and can be implemented many other ways.

The fact that graphs can be any combinations of literally or dependently defined, static or dynamic defined, would add even more complexity to any truly general graph library.
> For nearly 10 years now Microsoft's VS Code has been the dominant text editor among the soydev community. I use it on my Microsoft Windows machine to write Microsoft Typescript code with help from the latest AI models in Microsoft Copilot, it installs my Microsoft npm packages, pushes my code to Microsoft Github and automatically deploys to Microsoft Azure which I then admire from the Microsoft Edge browser.[1]

For real it's scary how much developer experience is controlled by Microsoft.

For $1500 it's better to get one of the 43" 4K displays. I've used one for over half a decade now, and the ability to comfortably tile a browser plus four terminals side-by-side is unmatched. Or if you will, display 10 A4 pages of a document simultaneously.
Underpowered in terms of RAMs, storage, and possibly GPU. Agree that M2/M3 are faster and have better battery life. Weight/heat to me fall under build quality, not specs.
Ask HN: Do fanless laptops have a shorter life?
Anyone know?
That confidence interval seems large, no?
