One thing they can do is incentivise women to rejoin the workforce after having kids, another is raise the retirement age to 70+. I think we'll see both in the next 5-10 years. Maybe they can kill two birds with one stone and have OAPs work as childcare providers.

On the topic of this "intern" scheme, I've seen a couple of NHK documentaries on it in the past year or two so it's definitely in the public consciousness now - although I get the impression the response it's got hasn't matched the outrage I would have hoped for. From what I saw a "technical intern" is another name for a farm/factory labourer, which is almost beyond parody.

In February the "technical intern" program was abolished and a new system set up in its place. I'm doubtful it will be much better, but I guess we'll find out eventually.
It’s offensive because the message is “we want to destroy all of these real things and replace them with a simulation that we sell you”. Apple is trying to kill the competition and the competition are now the people who make paintbrushes, violins, etc etc.

With more and more things being mass produced, simulated, and faked, people increasingly value things that feel “real”. Apple with this add is explicitly claiming to destroy the real and trying to sell that.
Doesn't matter. Its the title.
The internet often carries a reverse of a normal distribution in terms of sentiment of opinion.

Does anybody actually watch ads? I think it’s been decades since I paid attention to an ad.
That also can be used in the affirmative: "Wanna get food?" "Uh huh."

"Understood", or "got it" expresses acknowledgement without agreement.
I think Apple needs to go back to Mac guy and PC guy and have Mac guy give a play by play of their intent. It's not very clear.
LOL, you can get 5x - 10x computational power (including AI if needed) for the same price from other vendors.

Unless they overshot production and have stock of unsold M2s they're willing to sell at 90% discount.
This looks pretty nice! I like the ability to add multiple file panels versus tabs that are common with nnn and ranger. Going to give this a spin today.
What sort of battery life do you get?

Online reviews say to expect under two hours from the x395 running zoom in windows.

I assume stuff like suspend/resume, webcam and audio work, since it’s a daily-driver.

(My only other question is whether I can have vs code yet, but that’s not related to the laptop.)
Right. The problem as originally stated is paradoxical. You can't uniformly sample an unbounded set. I assume OP used a random floating point, which are bounded.

But the important part of the question can be asked for any possible distribution over the reals.
I mostly agree. My point is I don’t think the audience here would give the same empathy to flag burning, Christian trolling etc. just want to be clear if these are the gods we worship here
The backwards version of the ad is leaps and bounds better. I'm sure some ad "creative" type somwehere is kicking themselves for not having the same idea.
No, because we never know what's around the corner. Even Moore's law didn't peak. As long as there is fierce competition, things will continue to move forward.
Gravitational Engine as Thermoacoustic Engine/Acoustic Refrigerator
I've stayed in at least a few hotels that had small kitchens in Europe. I washed clothes in the tub. In the US, extended stay hotels are incredibly common, cost-effective, and I actually prefer them.
Bob Lazar's Craft as a Physicist
That big thing that whacked us and created the Moon may be responsible for our being here. Amazing.

The simplest and most likely explanation for the Fermi paradox that does not rely on fanciful future great filters or even more fanciful galactic zoo hypotheses is that complex highly intelligent life capable of space flight is extraordinarily rare in space and time.

When we go out there we might end up finding some bacteria-like organisms and simple fossils but nothing close to ourselves.

But ultimately we don't know until we go see.
I think SAML should be available for business tier as well.

Apple doesn’t pay consumer prices for their own chips.
I’m pretty sure you’re thinking about the work on the open source GPU driver. AFAIK Apple contributed the MPS backend for pytorch and tensorflow-metal PluggableDevice.
I'm not so sure about that; the emoji with the eyeballs squeezed out of their sockets didn't exactly scream "compression" to me. It felt like they were aiming for over the top cartoonish destruction - but destruction nonetheless.
Happy for you, most houses I visited in Canada are so poorly insulated (noise and temperatures) that it's laughable and triple glased windows would just move the problem from windows to walls.

Asked a home building company if they build with concrete (not that you couldn't insulate a wood construction though) and they scoffed saying it would take 15 years to recoup the costs through energy savings... Which doesn't sound that long to me, it's a house not a car
> They are entirely dependent on the owner for continued existence.

They are dependent on someone but an owner moving to a new apartment could theoretically find another person to take care of them.
> Git isn't easy but it's conceptually simple

That may be, but the state of your repo, expressed as a combination of the 4 things listed after doing an arcane and globally unique sequence of git commands, is in no way conceptually simple. If it was, the implicit lurking horror that every programmer knows lies inside git would not be a shared traumatic developer coming of age story. You are the exception here.

> No, that is still fully decentralized.

The word decentralized does not really apply here. Is Figma decentralized? Do you ever do peer-to-peer git? Do you really? Or do you kind of just have a single source of truth with a lot of local copies, that allow offline-first workflows that you rarely need.

> if GitHub or GitLab or Azure DevOps or whatever suddenly disappeared could be promoted to be the new shared source of truth.

This is not a selling point you think will be taken seriously, right?
Thanks for this recommendation. I've tried SteerMouse and other alternatives in the past and haven't stuck with them (can't recall why exactly) but would dearly like to get away from Logitech's software.
Interactive Gradient Descent with Momentum Demonstration
More people know about iPad released a thinner version now than before the controversy.

Mission accomplished.

There is really no such thing as bad publicity.

Number of people who will stop buying Apple products due to this Ad : ZERO

Number of people who are aware of iPad Thin due to controversy : > ZERO

A small number of people shit on Apple/Google/Meta/Amazon all the time for every little thing

Edit : HN crowd downvoting a marketing concept. I must be right!
I fully agree that anything to the extreme can be detrimental and therefor unsustainable and ineffective. I will say that I have seen great value in building up a rough mental model of (1) how energy dense various foods are (2) where my routines / habits are causing me to over consume energy.

I agree having a compulsion to weigh everything you eat for fear of "failing" isn't very productive. But on the other hand I think there is genuine utility in knowing roughly what percentage of your daily energy comes from your typical breakfast / lunch / drinks / dinner / snacks etc etc.

Where I feel my approach beats the typical calorie tracker is that it doesn't encourage micro-counting or even reaching a specific goal, but rather just keeps you informed. This makes it very easy to know where your energy came from and thus gives you power to increase / decrease as needed.

Definitely take your point on the other factors - but for many people, I think, it would help knowing what a maintenance day of eating looks / feels like.
My comment never said otherwise. I just feel that it needs to be said that it is incorrect and inappropriate to blame the composition or the rulings of SCOTUS on a specific President. The government was intentionally designed to prevent that.
Swift does this, but their release cycle is currently more frequent and the roadmap is (possibly) more clear. Paraphrasing:

Warning: <Certain undesirable behavior>
will be an error in Swift <Version
+ 1>.

I’m not sure if it’s an huge improvement, but it’s easy to block all forward warnings with `-Werror` to clean up right away.
To me it says "Look at all this stuff you can do with an ipad now, and in a thinner form factor. It used to take a room full of stuff to do this. Isn't that awesome?".

You might not be angry but you're using pretty malicious language to assign intent to the ad that doesn't seem present to me.
I saw that stat on their chart. My question with it is 100 or so storms per cycle that just burp out into space period, or is it 100 or so per cycle that interact with Earth?
This is very cool! One of the hardest things in tech is to teach non tech people to write decent bugs.
Our team wouldn’t be able to use this because HAR records at L7 only, after browser content-decoding. A lot of the problems we find end up with symptoms revealed by the encoder or decoder.
I assume he means things like the Strand Magazine, that Sherlock Holmes was first published in, it's not unusual to find copies bound into hardback books like that.
That would've be hilarious as parody of this commercial if the hydraulic press shot out flames too and burnt some books. Make that message even more ambiguous lol.

My line supplied that plant. It's about 45 minutes down the road from where I worked. And the Alabama legislature is now making it easier for companies to hire child laborers. We're going to start seeing a lot more injuries in manufacturing and food processing. We are regressing.

I don't enjoy absolute silence at all, quietness for me is low intensity natural background noise. Shuffling of leaves, birds, crickets, wind through trees' canopy, a stream of water, all of that is very much soothing (and wanted) noise for me.

I've been around a few suburbs in the USA and they aren't quiet to my ears, they sound dead for a lack of a better word. Dead with the odd noise from a car's engine and tyres (usually a pickup truck), lawn mower, leaf blower rushing through it.

Absolute silence is not even natural, it gives me the creeps when I'm in a deafening silent ambient.
There's not so much as a screenshot of MC on their official page. Hard to say.

Did the author say their product was better?
Scenario:

"When we do db lookups it's easier if there is no punctuation."

"OK, easy, let's take out the punctuation"

Later:

"It turns out that data is used to make Street signs"

"Well, it's sort of a problem with the database isn't it ...."
People underestimate the cost of shipping produce. If you look at banana boxes, most of them come from Ecuador (in my area).

There's a river of bananas coming from Ecuador to the US, and that river gets broken up into various tributaries which get smaller and smaller until the dribble of bananas ends up at your local store.

And then they sell for .68/lb.

Anything that makes those things last longer is something everyone wants.

In fact, in the case of bananas that variety (Cavendish) is chosen because it lasts longer. There are plenty of produce that aren't shippable because they spoil - like Hood Strawberries, which only last for a few days and are only available locally.

That's two examples, but really - the idea that producers change the expiration date is patently ridiculous, at least in the US.

Frozen food and canned goods probably never expire.

But things do break down. As a sort of ridiculous example, soda doesn't last forever for sure. And if it's in the sun or not refrigerated it gets weird.
I trimmed down my linux machine more and more, but I still need linux for some usages (I stream and use OBS for one). But I use OpenBSD on a dozen of servers I manage, it is rock solid for many (not all) usages.

I really like those simple desktop environment where you have a good understanding of the machine you are using. I do use ranger as file manager, it is heavier than walk, but it is very capable and scriptable while staying quite simple.
When your Brand is as valuable as Apple or Boeing, bad publicity is a thing.

They don't need to be known, but they need to maintain the positive values associated with their brand.

The Apple brand is their most valuable asset, they probably destroyed billions in brand value with the shitstorm around this horribly distasteful ad.
> It is uncertain when it went from purple to red

The same dye produces a wide range of shades between purple and red depending on how the cloth is treated/the amount used/the aging of the piece. A shift in color could very much be a gradual shift over time as styles/process change.
CPU architecture probably doesn't matter.

But then I'm back to my original question: where are the Linux or Windows machines with great battery life and good performance. Is there anything like what Apple sells at Walmart: a 13.3" MacBook Air with the M1 chip, retina display, and 8 GB of RAM for $700. This is a very old machine at this point and still very hard to beat.
I've never met anyone capable of communicating with well-defined terms. Or giving definitions that actually match the real-word usage of the term. And all definitions are ultimately circular, because the number of words is finite. In any chain of definitions, you will eventually have to use a term you were trying to define.

What you call the scientific method is a philosophical construct that has little to do with actual science. And philosophers disagree on whether it's a good ideal for science. Given that it's neither a good description of science nor a universal ideal for science, I wouldn't focus too much on it when discussing science.
> I really would like to see a 100lb digital piano replacing a 500lb upright piano while keeping its action, feel and sound, if not a grand piano. That hasn't happened yet

It absolutely has. The sales of upright pianos are down, while sales of digital pianos are up. I'd call that replacing.

"Hybrid pianos have gained immense popularity among music lovers. These pianos are increasingly being used to provide keyboard lessons as they combine the electronic, mechanical and acoustic aspects of both acoustic and digital pianos. In addition, hybrid pianos take up limited space and can be easily moved due to their small size and lightness. In addition, these pianos require little maintenance. Temperature and humidity do not affect their configuration due to amplifiers and speakers. They can also be connected to digital interfaces, laptops, iPads and other devices. As a result, pianists are increasingly preferring hybrid pianos, prompting vendors to launch more innovative products that will boost market growth during the forecast period."

What the Decline of Lean Production Means for Workers
What’s really appalling is the lack of solidarity.
It's not matter of spiritualism.

If I put my skill and effort crafting something and it is destroyed, I'll feel sad.

Feeling that way even for things other made is called empathy.
What does the base 8GB RAM option have to do with how Apple will spec their servers?

The M2 Ultra supports up to 196GB of RAM in the products Apple offers it in.
On my Renault Megane e-Tech the cameare is placed at the top of the rear window, and due to the small "shelf" on the top of the roof above, it's quite sheltered.

I often find that I forget to wipe the rear window because I have no trouble seeing with the camera.

However the wiper does go over the area covered by the camera, so with snow in particular the wiper works wonders.
Best would be pianoteq, but let's be serious, nothing will come close to an acoustic piano.
After for YouTube consumption and for the mass, yeah, it will be good enough, afterall most people don't realize that Rousseau is/was not only a team but rearranging midi for their output and still are playing poorly.
> Keep in mind this is likely a hit piece in a press war. Telegram and Signal regularly attack each other, accusing the other of security and privacy failures.

That argument seems like false balance.

One of the two is peer-reviewed and is participating in productive exchange with academic industry security specialists; the other is reinventing the wheel and tapering over the numerous resulting red flags with a huge marketing budget.

Their respective public statements simply do not have the same weight.

> Unlike Telegram, Signal doesn’t allow researchers to make sure that their GitHub code is the same code that is used in the Signal app run on users’ iPhones

This is technically impossible on iOS due to its app distribution model. If Telegram claims anything else, that’s concerning.
"Since the Supreme Court was established in 1789, presidents have submitted 165 nominations for the Court, including those for chief justice. Of this total, 128 were confirmed (7 declined to serve"

Based on the above, it's clear that the president's nominations are largely successful, and therefore, as the only nominator, it stands to reason that presidents define supreme courts, not Congress.

Also, no need to be snarky.
Can you name and shame the company? And the city / state where this took place?
It’s not like the workers that got their jobs replaced by an LLM cease to exist. Unless LLMs caused people to work more from home, or have fewer kids, I can’t see how they affected the environment positively.

Small countries: Blockchains were at the level of The Netherlands at some point. So we’re not talking city state, but real, industrialised country.
I almost didn't even try to figure it out after I installed and the `superfile` command didn't work.
We adopted a piano while we were overseas and moved it to San Francisco. We ended up giving it to a church after my son decided he couldn't abide the high notes that could never quite get into tune. Still have fond memories of it though.
All work has a cost including documentation. You either make updated documentation an explicit work item or it will, at best, get done ad hoc, at worst, it will not be done. If you allow urgency of code requests to bypass a documentation requirement expect documentation to fall behind. If you expect the team to create documentation without explicit time to do so, expect it to not get done.

It is either a priority to do with time set aside to do it or it isn't, and you get what you get. Even a time-box, best effort documentation effort is going to have a better result than "hoping" it gets done and making it a lower priority.
As stated in the definition, the distribution is that of independent uniform coefficients in (-1,1).
Are there extensions planned for other browsers? It seems right now when you click on "get jam" button, it takes me to the chrome web store.
It depends on the locale but usually not more frequently than once per quarter. Aside from this, one aspect that makes it complicated and intractable is that the rules for applying sales tax to various goods sometimes require very late binding -- the correct tax rate cannot be known until checkout because it is dependent on customer decisions at checkout. The common example of this is the definition of "prepared foods", because something you are going to eat immediately gets taxed differently than something you are going to take home. Tax authorities have standards of evidence at checkout based on customer behavior for food items that could reasonably fall into either category.

An argument could be made that sales tax should have rules that don't require this type of very late binding. The issue is that legal authority over this is completely decentralized as a Constitutional matter and there are thousands of overlapping tax authorities. There is no feasible way to compel them to all do something sensible, so the system has to operate under the assumption that some tax authorities will issue these types of rules as a matter of robustness.
Also extremely annoying as a customer from a different culture.

I've learned to always ask "what's the final price I will have to pay for this item?" everywhere I go in the USA. Restaurants, bars, shops, even the places I assume I will pay the sticker price I will ask that question to avoid any surprises.
Long industrial technology, Short pre-industrial technology
Thank you for the additional color. I will say that aside from the physical stuff, this doesn't sound all that different from the treatment that workers for Amazon or a call center would be subject to. I had my own wage-slave days and navigating this type of employment was an incredibly demoralizing way to start a working life. I certainly don't take for granted the cushy role that I have at a software company now, in spite of the fact that I work for a small company at a salary many here would find insulting.
Try contributing.
As my kids got some recent Choose Your Own Adventure books, I'd say that the quests in modern MMORPGs tend to be significantly worse than that.
Thank you! No real abuse mitigation yet. The file size limits is most likely the avenue I'll take though. I've only just released this today, so would like to get an idea of some usage patterns from users before I implement anything!
As easy as it is to interpret it as "fuck your cherished things! get indoctrinated by tech" It is just because tech's true colors have really exposed themselves as of late to be money grubbing criminals to the extreme. It is inevitable that any corporation of sufficient size (only acheivable by evil) will stop being able to be "cute" advertising anymore

Why "can't" (won't) screen readers pick up the title attribute?
Every single app having to import the same popper library, for over a decade, indicates there's sufficient need for native support.

I've also been a proponent of a combobox becoming native (for ex: a select box of Countries where you can filter by typing) https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/combobox/#:~:text=C.... and ideally multi-select for ex a tag selector.
They can still label them correctly. Here we have Tesco normal prices like £20 for a sandwich, £3 with a clubcard, and they just write both prices together.
There's not much to stop what you describe, other than the trust you place in a native app when you install it. Super common experience to have to give superuser access once during an installation process, and most bets are off regarding security once you do that. That's part of the added friction involved in running a native app; you have to trust it more.

Only other alternative I can think of would be an Apple App Store-style review process where the task of proving trustworthiness gets shifted onto the developer rather than the user. But it's still based around human trust rather than a platform constraint.
You’re confusing formal/informal language and strong/hedged claims here.

The article is not a scientific paper, but even in those, if you know how to read them, you’ll find authors saying “this is very weird”, albeit in different words.
