Synaptics touchpads on Linux used to support these features with a FLOSS driver, but this was abandoned when Linux distributions adopted libinput instead. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Touchpad_Synaptics Note the amount of config options available.
Yeah I don’t actually want Apple to put Alps switches into a Macbook.

I’d buy one if they did though.
I just tried it on this Windows laptop, and it worked exactly as you described, at least in firefox. I pretty much never use a touchpad though, so I don't think I ever saw that before. If I did though, I can imagine coming to rely on it pretty quickly.
AFAIK: two fingers on the touchpad, move your fingers and observe how things scroll. When it is good you don't feel any lag and the content moves as fast or as slow (even by a single pixel) as your fingers are. Some inertial scrolling on top and that's it.

Privately I am using a lot of Chromebooks and it is good in my opinion, but I was never wowed by Apple implementation so maybe I am not a good person to ask.
Yeah, this looks like a Comcast specific problem. It is affecting routing to some AWS IPs, but not all of them.
If the wages are so low that the workers require government assistance, that business isn't productive enough to be allowed to survive in a modern economy. It doesn't produce enough (or its owners demand too much of the rewards, or its customers arent willing to pay, the "reason" is immaterial, those all basically are the same problem). The customers and shareholders aren't entitled to unlimited immigration to prop up their unproductive business model at the cost of the taxpayer.

True progressives would seek to raise the living standards of the working poor over importing a slave caste to do the work leaving wages stagnant or in decline.
This is an ancient article. Pretty much only Rust has .drop() with such strong steroids. Either way struct in C# means something very specific and it is the same as struct in C. You can cast a malloced pointer in C to a struct and use it as such, you can do the same in C# (not that you should, but you can).

In terms for article contents - structs absolutely do go on the stack when you declare them as locals except select scenarios: async and iterator methods, both of which can capture variables that live across yields or awaits into a state machine struct or class (debug/release difference, and also ValueTask which does not alloc when it completes synchronously).

If you care about memory lifetimes, the compiler will helpfully error out when you are returning a 'ref' to a local scope, violating the lifetime (because it has rudimentary lifetime analysis underneath hence scoped and unscoped semantics).
You should definitely be able to do so , just get the code and add it.
Generally Apple is only expected to make their own touchpads work well. So it's fewer devices to develop/test, the OS folks can talk to the hardware devs, see their designs and firware and even get to influence hardware decisions. Perhaps Apple puts in work for a handful of the top touchpad brands, but they also are incentivised to work with Apple.

Compare to linux, where they have zero influence over any of the hardware involved, and are expected to support every single hardware combo possible.
There's a business necessity defense, and in sure a case could be made that a below median salary is a business necessity, considering addressing those marginal costs is exactly the intent of the business.
I have a question in the realm of unintended consequences.

The DJI app on Android requires sideloading. The lengths to which they go to obfuscate the app's code are extensive, as has been previously highlighted on this site. It is a very fair assumption that the reason that DJI went the sideloading route was because whatever they are up to would not pass Play Store review.

Are iOS users about to be subjected to a sideloaded DJI app with who knows what happening under the hood?

I think the reason is that "a good trackpad" as well as "a good keyboard" is not something that can be measured. Let's say that the cost of a good trackpad is equivalent to the cost of, let's say, 16 more Gb of RAM. Does the user given the same price choose to by the laptop with written on the box "32Gb of RAM" or the one that says 16? The first, because 32 is better than 16!

Apple is different because they have a product that is not comparable to other PCs, or they want you to believe that, thus they can put the price tag they want on it. Want they spend 100$ on a trackpad, they can, but a PC manufacturer can't.

Beside that, I think also the reason why PC manufacturer didn't invest on them is that most PC have Windows on them, and native multitouch trackpad gestures on Windows is rather a new thing (even on Linux, by the way, it started being supported as smoothly as macOS only with Wayland). Thus why have an hardware that supports something than in the end the OS that most people is using doesn't support?
I think this could actually be somewhat competitive outside of the RISC-V developer and enthusiasts market, if the performance is a advertised: Cortex-A55 30% faster, 20% more efficient, that should be similar to the Cortex-A510, and dual-issue RVV 1.0 with VLEN=256

AFAIK there is currently no Cortex-A510 easily available SBC, and this should have 2x the vector performance than it. (A510: dual-issue 128 bit neon vs X60: dual-issue 256 bit RVV)

Edit: I had ", not factoring in that RVV is generally a more expressive/feature-rich isa than neon" in the above, which is true, but the Cortex-A510 also supports SVE has a similar feature set (it includes gather/scatter/compress operations).

This might be ideal for low power applications that need a decent amount of cores and can take advantage of vector compute.

> It would be better to put these in the application menu (the bold faced one with the application name to the left of "file").

This is not an unreasonable proposal in itself; however, it does not conform to how Apple still treats the File menu in general, or its guidelines for its use.
I'm pretty sure there's some bias present due to adaption. I'm very much used to some non-MB touchpad, and whenever I use a MB it feels worse (too slow and mushy). I feel similar pain even when switching operating systems on the same laptop, which almost certainly has to do with muscle memory. In that sense "getting it right" for Apple users would mean other manufacturers would need to exactly copy Apple's behavior, and probably make other users unhappy.
This is called extrapolation and can be done with simple linear regression in some cases
'switch' and 'restore' have gone a long way toward making everyday git usage feel less like an inscrutable crazyland.
Mac trackpads have been top notch as far back as I can remember, to the iBook G3. First one I actually owned was a derelict 2006 MacBook someone had thrown away in 2012, and it was still easier to use than the modern loaner Windows laptops at school.

And now with the modern Macs, I prefer the trackpad over a mouse even on a desk. Never would've thought it before.
I had high hopes for WSA as an enterprise platform, not as a consumer platform. Give enterprises an easy way to build one custom workflow app for mobile incl. offline support and syncing, then use the same app on your desktop. There is already great tooling for work profiles and mobile device management. Too bad this didn't get enough traction.
Having a PhD is not a requirement for being intelligent
> There is no way I'm going to suffer the ergonomic hell that is a laptop for a second longer than I absolutely have to

I agree with this, but intentionally choosing a trackpad to put on your desk is just accepting a portion of this hell, in my opinion. The trackpad is an RSI torture device to me, because of the way you have to hold the muscles in the back of your hand tense so all but one finger is a little higher than the others.

Still doing it. Nothing about an LLM is "intelligent". ML at best, not ai.

In this context, it's about scrolling when you slide your fingers along a trackpad surface.

It's supposed to be like "buttery smooth" scrolling on a smartphone. Whatever is on the screen should move with your fingers, with pixel accuracy and low delay, so it feels like you're dragging something around with your fingers.

When you let go, it might continue to scroll, as if you flicked the object with your fingers. This is called inertial scrolling. At the limits, it should show your attempt to scroll beyond the limits somehow. Apple and Android do this differently for patent reasons.

Of course with a touchpad the image isn't underneath your fingers like with a smartphone. So the scrolling amount doesn't have to be the same physical length as your finger movement. It's scaled, but it should feel similar to smartphone scrolling.

There's no arrow.

Actually I'd argue that Linux is a magic bullet that stops ... most malware.

The problem I see with OSX and Windows is they don't have a unified package manager, which encourages users to go find it, often from a random website. Being commercially driven Apple and Microsoft have much weaker open source communities. Why would someone write a screen saver for Apple or Windows? Why would they give it away free? Why would they pay apple for the privileged of writing an OSX program and hosting it on their app store?

Take a security naive user, sit them in front of a Linux box, and they are likely to meet most of their needs with apt/yum/dnf install <foo> or using any of numerous GUIs to do the same. There's MUCH less of the install random package or shudder browser plugin from a random site in the linux world.

Similarly it seems that generally Chrome OS is more secure than windows or OSX, mostly because even though you can install apps, they have a more limited sandbox.

I think at least part of it is that many people creating the job postings literally don't know the difference between a machine learning specialist and an "AI Engineer" who is just calling an API. One thing that is confusing is that with the powerful models that have come out in the last few years, someone using the right API and maybe a good prompt can actually handle many tasks that three years ago would have taken an ML engineer months to train a custom model for.

I have been saying I'm a "software engineer with a recent focus on generative AI". Half of my clients are convinced that they need to train a custom model in order to solve their problems at all. Because they typed a request into ChatGPT and it didn't do exactly what they wanted. But usually if I just do an API call with an actual system message and temperature 0 then I can demonstrate that they don't need a custom model.

There are good reasons to want custom models, but those are probably phase two or three of most projects. And 100 X as expensive and complex. Phase one for many projects will work fine as a proof of concept using an API call or two.

I think there will be jobs for ML specialists that know how to do fine-tuning of common models. But you will be competing with people like me who don't have an ML PhD. But beyond that, it seems that you have to build specialized architectures that can compete with the general ML architectures built by leading edge researchers at huge companies. And it's becoming increasingly difficult to invent a new architecture that is truly better in a niche.
Apple is not allowing "sideloading" understood as downloading directly from the web, they require all apps to go through a store (either theirs or an alternative one). So this app would have to pass some review process, presumably.
Nvidia and Micron came up with GDDR6X, which isn't a JEDEC standard. JEDEC did standardize GDDR5X before that, but only Micron ever made it and only Nvidia ever used it AFAIK.
I believe you, it sounds like you're living in a form of hell on Earth as it stands.

My two cents, before thinking about the Catholic Church or any Church's claims for that matter, form a relationship with Jesus/God. You seem like a pretty tuned in person, I feel that you will find your answers. If we are made in His image, and He gave his only Son up to be tortured and killed for us, there is no way your suffering goes unnoticed.

Without that relationship, every Church is just a bunch of rules to follow, and ya, that would really suck to be involved with. God bless you on your journey.
For instances of this that the system knows about, you could add a response that says, “technically correct but not what I’m looking for.” Similar to how one would do it in real life.
Trackpoints IMHO suck hard, simply because you need a lot of fine motor control to precisely operate them, the texture is bad, and a single "purring cat on closed lid" event can be enough to permanently stain the screen.
Sure, a system prompt alone isn't much of a product and is only the barest of what you can do with LLMs. But there's _so_ much more you can do with an LLM. Developing something more complex is what the position should be about. Integrating it into workflows is the most obvious example, and the only way to do that is just a bunch of integration work, like software engineers do.
> got it wrong

But your query was ambiguous as written.

8 hours and 32 minutes is how long it takes to go from 3:38 pm to 10 after midnight? Perhaps the am/pm thing is also underspecified, so it chooses the shorter time delta?
Depends on what you call “similar”. They’ll have storage, layout, a part of the layout that’s visible, etc, but they may not separate them that clearly, and won’t have that rich an API. TextView is way more flexible than what the typical _text_ editor needs. Text editors typically don’t need multiple fonts, multiple font sizes, varying line spacing, paragraph indents, proportional fonts, right-aligning or decimal tabs, images inside text, etc.

All those features make TextView relatively slow and memory hungry. Because of that, I don’t think _text_ editors that handle multi-megabyte files will use a single NSAttributedString to store the entire document’s text.
These models usually have poorer fit though

Said it before and said it again, the issue with AMD GPUs is not individual kernels which are easy to translate, but the libraries. From the release notes saying 'Add minimal support of cuDNN, cuBLAS, cuSPARSE, cuFFT, NCCL, NVML' it looks like this project was going towards this which is great. Whether it'll have momentum after AMD stop funding it... who knows.

Apple introduces transcripts for Apple Podcasts
There's a categorical difference between preferring one sort of input over another, and there being only one acceptable implementation of that category. As you indicated, if the keyboard cough nub, let's call it a nub, is your mouse pusher of choice, you pretty much own a ThinkPad, because the other ones suck.

If you like a trackpad, you have a Mac, for the same reason. I don't know if it's the hardware or the firmware, might be some of both, but no one else ships a laptop with an acceptable response curve.

I stick with the Apple ecosystem for a few reasons, but this is a big one. Even when I'm at the desktop with keyboard and trackball, I'll reach over to the laptop sometimes to pinch, or three-finger swipe, just because it's the easiest way to express my intention. The context switch from using the keyboard to using the mouse is a fairly complete one for me, which is to say I tend to spend long stretches doing one or the other. I don't place any value on staying on the home row while switching. I do place considerable value on proper pointer and scroll acceleration, reliable recognition of gestures, and input rejection when my palm or thumb happens to rest on the trackpad. Any non-Apple laptop trackpad I've tested completely fails one or all of these.

There was an incredibly stubborn post-Cold War "end of history" complacency in Europe that really should have ended after the annexation of Crimea in 2014. Instead it lasted until the full invasion in 2022.

What's been starkly revealed since is that Europe is woefully unprepared to respond to any kind of aggression, and aside from France's nuclear weapons, wholly reliant on America. At some point you have to get serious and live in the real world where threats still exist.
