But there are many ways to show that the iPad incorporates all of those things. Make a mini character enter the iPad and visit a succession of caves, each one full of artists doing art with traditional tools. Or put mini instruments in a drawer, one after the other, and when the drawer is opened again it only contains an iPad.

But no! They thought it was more fun to destroy everything. They wanted to make porn. They wanted to make their own little snuff movie.

And nobody in what one imagines to be a long chain of command, felt physically sick watching it.
That's incredibly funny, since I've been developing software for 20+ years using debian and vim (look mom, no IDE!) and I'm pretty sure that's what I'll be doing for the years to come.
Imagine how valuable it will be when you're in the minority of humans who still understand how a linux system operates, and how to write and read your own code! Amazing! I absolutely welcome cloud and AI, happy to let it destroy any and all wisdom of future generations :)
Because they're not just engaged with their competitors. They also have relationships with the government and with suppliers (of food, of labor, etc).

Below the line fees are a political statement, and act as political back pressure against the purported source of some costs.

Do I need different prompts? These results seem sane to me. It interprets laser eye removal surgery as referring to LASIK, which I would do as well. When I clarified that I did mean removal, it said that the procedure didn't exist. It interprets Mid-Atlantic Mountain Range as referring to the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and notes that it is underwater and hard to access. Not that I'm arguing GPT-4 has a deeper understanding than you're suggesting, but these examples aren't making your point.

Nope. Their employers are not paying them full wage. That's the problem. Tippers are subsidizing the restaurant owners and enabling the practice while feeling righteous about their destructive behavior.

Of course the best behavior is to completely avoid any place of business that runs on tipping when possible.

ROFF: Not Just for Manpages (A dossier on (G)ROFF, datasets, exmaples)
I promised a dossier on ROFF in my last post and I shall hereby deliver.

If you star this repository I will add more scripts, or even programs, to `roff-utils` directory. I wish to implement my own ROFF and I wanna have a bit of a dry-run if you will.

Thanks.
Or, you could argue that the existence of such low minimum wages are the true crime, because now you have this shitty Nash equilibrium where you must beg for tips because everyone else does.

Agreed on the multiple PDFs (I think that's a WIP), but I'm actually in favor of annotations stored in a separate document rather than embedded in the PDF. Ideally it would be nice to have both options which Zotero and your mentioned extension offer, but I'd prefer to have annotations separate so you can access a 'clean' copy of the PDF to e.g. share with others. Additionally, each PDF viewer that supports 'annotations' currently supports them in its own unique way and programs usually can't distinguish highlights/notes made by other programs from the original source. However, Zotero and a few other readers are starting to use Web Annotation Data Model (https://www.w3.org/TR/annotation-model/) as a universal annotation storage mechanism, which I'm hoping will eventually allow you to create some highlights/notes in Sioyek, view and edit them in KOReader on an e-reader, then send an annotations file to a colleague who uses Zotero or Obsidian/PMK and has their own separate copy of that PDF (something I'm working on but very early on). https://hypothes.is operates a bit like this.
By then it will be too late for those laid off, so a lose-lose situation.

All iPhones going all the way back to 2018 can upgrade to iOS 17 right now.

66% of all active iPhones are already on iOS 17, 23% are on iOS 16, and only 11% use anything older. People upgrade iOS fairly quickly and it’s uncommon to support anything more than the two most recent major versions. So it’s more like one year, not five.

I think the mark of a good ad is that you can turn the music off and most people will get the message. The imagery of destroying the things is the problem, if you turn the music off you really don’t know how you are supposed to feel about this. Apple conveyed similar messages before with animations that did not destroy the underlying album arts, just shrunk them into an iPod. It would hit very different if they crushed a bunch of music paraphernalia people got a lot of enjoyment out of.
For one, there will be an immediate price ratchet that would scare customers away, and they would rather avoid that.

Two, customers (yes, that's us I'm talking about) are dumb and superstitious when it comes to numbers.

$10 = oh no, that's bad

$9.99 = oh, that's perfectly fine!

By raising 'visible' prices for everyone some portion of the customers will shy away from the product, say by buying groceries rather than eating out.
Plus in a motor vehicle driver's world, blindness presents a much more serious problem for mobility, which makes 'the blind community' more diffuse. Blind people are, unfortunately, often relatively socially isolated.
Unions made Detroit a world-leading city and made the American auto industry a leader in productivity and profitability.

Teacher unions have made the American public education system the envy of the world.

Airline unions have made flying safe, smooth, affordable and reliable.

I look forward to continuing the excellent track record of American unions improving everything for everyone.

Millennial modernism doesn't mean the generation. It's the industrial design and UI aesthetic that took hold around the turn of the millennium. AFAIK Jony Ive, one of its main architects, is a genX-er. Generationally I associate it more with genX since it took hold when that generation was entering higher levels in the corporate world.

I do agree that there is more wrong with the advert than this. I was just pointing out something nobody'd brought up.
You don't. However, not tipping in the current system makes you an asshole.

In a perfect world tipping wouldn't be required, but we don't live there right now, and until then all you're doing by not tipping is hitting some working class person in their pocketbook.

The moment a piano starts selling tablature in the TabStore™, I'm sure that people won't mind to see a piano being crushed in a hydraulic press.
> An iPad will never replicate the beauty of a human playing a piano or a violin.

I mean, one of its primary uses is to replicate the beauty of a human playing piano or violin via videos and recordings.

Aside from that, isn’t this just an appeal to tradition? An iPad is a tool just like a piano or the violin, people make beautiful music with them all the time.

I am sure there were curmudgeons saying that the piano and violin would never replicate the beauty of the human voice when they were the top technology of the day.
There's a step function difference between a large megacorp making their message about crushing artistic merit/individuality and selling their device as a replacement to all compared to hollywood using a couple cars as a stunt in the background. Apples to oranges.

If you can't see the difference here I think this says more about you being able to put together reasonable comparables for arguments then anything else.

For example using "Australian girl on Instagram that crushes things and dances to their shape" as a comparable is so completely different as to be irrelevant except that there is similarity in something being crushed. It's like comparing a military jet and a mosquito because they can both fly.
Yes! And we wonder also whether LLMs will get good enough soon to reliably auto-fill those. That would be amazing.
> “Ladies and gentlemen,” he began, “I will tell you of the highlights of my life. I am a director of plays. I am a producer of plays. I am an actor on the legitimate stage.

I don't know how prevalent my behavior is, but I eat out less since these random fees appeared.

If the price were simply 15% higher, I think would not mind (again I am guessing, who knows really - needs some sort of experiment).

I deeply dislike being quoted one price on the menu, but by the time I check out, it is notably higher. Once I add both the tax and the "fees," it is like paying for another complete entree. That unpleasant memory stays with me, even until the next time I consider eating out.

But then, I am not in the restaurant business, and I have lots of sympathy for those that make a living in such a razor-thin profit environment.

Do addon fees hurt more the businesses than help? I can't tell but I can provide my own behavior as an example.
I don't think we can say that, either. After all, the brain is able to perform both processing and storage with its neurons. The quotes about LLMs are talking only about connections between data items stored elsewhere.
I’m more sympathetic to this. There are plenty of cases where the tax rate is a solid “it depends”. For example, in some places a cold burrito is a non-taxable grocery item and a hot burrito is a taxable meal. A local place here has one tax rate if you order your pie boxed up to go (grocery) and another if you ask for a fork and eat it there (meal). It’s a Schrôdinger’s tax where you don’t know what it’s going to be until you check out.
I've never had a laptop louder than my Intel Macbook Pro under load. That was a uniquely Apple problem, not a general problem.

Presumably the number of leprosy cases originating in modern England is near zero, so actually procuring relevant strains seems impossible, no? I can't imagine that comparing random strains from places around the would would yield interesting results.

I get why this take is so common, but it's just wrong. Not that most use of iPad isn't consumption, but that this is different. PCs, too. MacBook Whatevers, too. TVs, too (obviously).

The iPads have had a hard time because, yeah, the OS was/is in its infancy but nobody (except the dgaf-wealthy) buys the $2000+ iPad Pro for "consumption" because they sell a $400 and $700 iPad for that.

The things iPad (Pro) can do are indeed far fewer than an unencumbered (by draconian lockdown, or simple lack of development resources) PC or even Mac laptop. But that's different than "none". The more hardware equipment in my studio I can shovel onto Apple's magic hydraulic obliterator, the better.

(Although it's a lot less than shown in that ad, haha. But I liked the ad, as far as ads go.)

The way it works on Android is that the system web view is an "app" (though not one you can launch) that updates via the Play Store. Any app using webviews automatically gets the upgraded experience whenever that app gets upgraded.

I had a strongly negative emotional reaction to the ad. Dwelling on crushing musical instruments, kids' toys, books, sculptures, and then the paint spurting out at the end into a depressing post-industrial warehouse -- something about it really affected me. It's not like I'm debilitated for the rest of the day, but it definitely makes me feel less positively about the ipad advertised.
> Auto manufacturers release many new models every year and most people do not buy them all. Nor do they wish that appliance manufacturers stopped releasing new models so they could keep their fridge for longer.

Generations of vehicles seem to be sold for at least half a decade, with maybe slight facelifts but largely functionally unchanged. My 20 year old truck, perhaps barring some safety features, also does basically the same job as a newer truck and drives down the same roads and so on. Thankfully the auto manufacturers haven't yet found a way to make your car or truck obsolescent in 3-5 years.

As far as appliances I swear to god I know I and a large number of other people would absolutely kill for an older Kenmore washer and dryer as they basically run forever and are easier to service. We keep jamming useless crap on everything (of course my refrigerator needs an embedded screen and internet of shit connection, so that it can spy on me and generally be another worthless shiny doodad that's going to break) while making things simultaneously harder to service. My 15 year old fridge does the exact same thing as the newer shitheap Samsung fridges they sell at big box retailers but without needing to be replaced every 5 years. Barring some marginal advances in refrigerant and insulation, some of the old stuff legitimately is better.

I think the real sore spot it hit is outing all the faux creative types who think owning an Apple product makes them creative.

Apple probably looked at usage stats and saw that 100x as many people use the ipad as piano than hook up an actual piano.
For the latest version (2.0.0): There is supposed to be a setting for (1), but the note in the supplied settings file seems to be misleading. I find that if I set `should_launch_new_instance` to 1, then I can have multiple PDFs open in Sioyek simultaneously, but only if I open the PDFs after the first from the termiinal; opening them from within Sioyek or from dmenu replaces the PDF that’s already open. But I never got any crashes. I use dwm on Debian.

I consider (2) desirable.
The point is to make a ballpark estimate, or at least to estimate the order of magnitude.

From the sibling comment:

> Individual proteins are capable of basic computation which are then integrated into regulatory circuits, epigenetics, and cellular behavior.

If this is true, then there may be many orders of magnitude unaccounted for.

Imagine if our intelligent thought actually depends irreducibly on the complex interactions of proteins bumping into each other in solution. It would mean computers would never be able to play the same game.
40 minutes after being seated is my limit before I walk out or whenever someone seated after me is served first. Let them eat the cost of their poor service.
Chrome OS does a fairly decent job with the transition now. I used to use a Lenovo Duet at times. If you had the keyboard / touchpad attached, it would go into the usual desktop mode with floating windows. If it was just the tablet, then windows would tile. Gestures for the usual tasks. It wasn't a complicated system but it did work fairly smoothly.

And then there were the checkboxes which allowed you to extend the OS beyond Chrome OS's initial limitations. Enable Android. Enable Linux. Enable developer mode. But the user (or administrator) could ignore those checkboxes and keep the machine in a fairly locked down state.

Keep imagining a similar abilities on iPads. A seamless transition from desktop mode to touch and back again. With options allowing you to make it into more of a general purpose computer if you want. But the options can be ignored in favor of the walled garden, if that's what the user or school or corporate owners want.

all two jobs I've worked, both as a backend dev using Go in data-storage companies, have offered Macs.
The first one, a small, badly run startup, only offered Macs. This gig, a larger company, offers Mac, Linux and Windows. I started with Linux and then switched to Mac because I was tired of stuff breaking.

I use Debian + FreeBSD on my personal PCs though.

Which tricks do you use to write less code?
I found some "tricks" to write less code, hence less code to maintain if there are any changes. Also less code with bugs just by changing the inputs.

For example, OpenAPI spec file + OpenAPI generator (https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator). Any changes in the OpenAPI spec are reflected in the final code with a build step.

Another example: MapStruct (https://mapstruct.org/) to avoid passing data from Entity classes to DTO and back. Saves looots of boilerplate code.

I don't have much to say for frontend as I am mainly working on backend. So good to know your stuff.

Which are your tricks?
Sure. What happened on 6/4 in Beijing? China has a fact and everyone else has different fact.
The thing is we're seeing more and more restaurants doing this. It's like a cancer cell, there's only one at first, then if its successful it's conquered the entire organ market rather quickly. This is about cutting off a bad practice we're seeing spread in that industry.

And I want the bill to spread to other markets that love tacking on hidden fees (looking at you Airbnb).
That was obviously the point. It was about compression not destruction.
Snowflakes are normally found en mass
It’s beyond needing us, it’s having the courage to create a lifecycle of improvement and healthfulness which allows you to never need lay off any employee because you already have a human being who is able to live sustainably, adapt and improve over time instead of being extracted from and discarded. This means hiring less people probably, but investing more into them.
Well the Ad is disturbing to me. I can see the intent and it's not malicious. But the backlash is good IMO. Because it sets a stake in the ground and a point to be brought up in the room when the marketing team wants to show a hydraulic press, a chain saw, flame thrower, a wrecking ball or a bulldozer destroying things for the purpose of grabbing my attention in their next ad.

An animation of all those nice items magically squeezing into the iPad one at a time, each contributing to an ongoing song/theme would sell far far better.

Thx.

Though, I don't see true sideloading (like on Android) specified. If apps still need Apple's approval, we will get "freedom" who to pay, not what to run. I still don't see device liberation within the scope of the DMA.

However, if we're lucky, Apple may decide the app approval process may not be worth it, if they are not allowed to extort developers anymore, so they may allow unsupervised sideloading as a consequence.

In any case, requirements and reality may take much longer to align than 6 more months, considering Apple's cringeworthy tantrums so far...
