> Apples not been worth it for pro users for a good decade.

I'm curious what you mean by this. In my country, a large percentage of developers are often seen working on Macs, and these are not developers of iOS or macOS apps, they just like using linux tools but on a non-linux OS UI. Visit a Clojure conference, for example, and notice how many are using macs. Same is true in many other engineering communities.
The Maps stuff always gets me. Yeah sure it looks pretty, but almost none of what makes it a usable product is available to me in Sweden.

I really liked the scripting language for defining 3D scenes; I bet today you could have an interactive UI that shows the scene in real-time as you modify the script.

The last scene I rendered, about 14 years ago, was a picture of the NIST national standard for pi: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tiggerntatie/pivis/master/...
Depends what you mean? If you want a modern high performance ray tracer with support for all the latest hardware and implementing all the cutting edge ray tracing research, there is Embree and OptiX. They don't however come with their own scene description language, which is what made POV-Ray so popular in the first place.

It won't, because there is no type narrowing in Gleam currently, the type system is also very different to something like Typescript, I just don't see what you are describing as something that could realistically happen, but if you have an example I would be curious.

If the return type changes, the code using the function should definitely blow up until it's changed, don't think that's a bad thing.

Chomsky has explicitly answered this: Moro has shown in experiments that humans do not appear to be able to learn arbitrary grammatical structures in the same way as human-like (hierarchical) languages. Non-human like languages take longer to interpret and use non-language parts of the brain.

LLMs on the other hand can easily learn these non-human grammatical structures which means that they are not the way humans do it.

> they're silently managing an ads-funded cash cow, with billions of dollars that go directly to the bottom line, as pure profit

Advertising isn't anti-privacy. Apple's fight was with tracking by third parties without user knowledge or consent. That is independent of, but often used for, advertising purposes.

This is different from say Google determining ads on Youtube based on what you are watching on Youtube.com, and from Amazon or Apple promoting products based on your product searches solely within their respective stores.
Yes, exactly this. I have had this for a while and works wonderfully well in most cases but it’s wonky and not seamless. I wanted a more integrated approach with Photos app which only Apple can bring to the table.

What's funny is that, in all these orgs, it ends up being the low-tech vulns that compromise you in the end. Physical access, social engineering, etc. However, I'm really impressed by the technical lengths Apples goes to though. The key-burning thing reminds me of ICANN' Root KSK Ceremonies.

I remember in 1999 thinking "Damn! The world's moved on to Java and I'm still writing in C! I won't last much longer..." Then I got a job writing C code for those wireless credit card doohickies (a nasty mess of Z80s with crazy paging schemes to access 2mb of memory, but I digress).

A few years later I actually started working in Java and Python, and then iPhone came along and I was right back in C land again!

Then in 2016 I got a job writing in Go, which lasted 2 years - aaaaand now I'm back to writing C (and C++) again - 25 years after my C-career crisis.

It's not like I'm actively seeking C jobs - I'm a polyglot and can handle pretty much anything. But again and again these C jobs just keep coming out of the woodwork... And I can command premium salary because there just aren't many skilled C developers anymore.

SteamDB has a "technologies used" field taken from the Steam API. Not all are bad, EAC and Battleye are the most common, and are both reputable. Those run with the game and close with the game, and they minimize data collection.
I noticed the same rush when consistently journalling and keeping track of my habits. There is something commit-like about checking in on yourself, even if it's not even remotely code-related. I also think it builds a well-maintained framework that you can attach other (especially time management) chores to. (Well, I'm already at my desk for journalling, let's also write down other tasks I need to do today/tomorrow and get started with the first one)

I'm not quite sure whether it's really important to keep your github bathroom wall green, but it builds a quite useful habit imo.

Something like window snapping has been out since Windows Vista or 7, I forgot. If you make an app to do this on macOS, you would have had nearly 20 years to make sales.

To me, these apps don't have any moat anyway. Developers for this category of apps should already understand that if it's essential, Apple or Google or Microsoft will integrate it into their OS eventually.

> I think that posting at least one commit per day is an incredible low goal. A commit can be anything, from a major refactoring to fixing a typo.

This is an easy goal in some companies / projects, while in others (usually bigger companies / projects) it's unreasonable and will even be counter productive.

You might need hours of execution time in a test cluster, then need code reviews from several peers (who are busy working on prioritized items), and if your commit is later integrated with commits from other organizations and tested as a whole which results in failures, you put extra load on those who are tasked with finding and sorting out the offending commits.

In principle I do absolutely agree with you that ideally it should be encouraged to spontaneously fix and commit, but in practice "it depends". I've found that larger companies / projects have a certain cadence, and trying to deviate from that cadence too much just results in grinding gears on all levels.

Universal grammar has not been "debunked", despite evidence-free claims otherwise.
The memory used by Apple isn't anything magical or special - it's bog standard LPDDR5, essentially same as phone - and in a laptop it's way less limited by thermal and power constraints to add more (which is how you have the rather large possible set of options).

While going for the top tier of memory sizes Apple offers does cost considerable amounts, making 16, or even 32GB standard is peanuts.
I think you might be making some assumptions about how this stuff works without looking into it.

- A lot (most?) people’s Apple Account name is actually their main email address (e.g. Gmail), so they would still control their email address even if their Apple Account was compromised.

- You can still recover your Apple Account and iCloud Keychain without any devices (e.g. if phone broke like in your scenario).

- Your passkeys stored in iCloud Keychain are still protected even if your Apple Account has been compromised.

Apple Watch is an cheap iPhone accessory. Vision Pro is an overpriced strap-on full facial PC. There's no comparison between the two that makes any sense at all.

Shipping old but stable versions of packages with security fixes backported is the motto of Debian Stable. If you don't like it, you will not be happy with it.

If you want to stick to Debian, you could try switching to Debian Testing and have newer packages (although the mention "syncthing" is not at the latest stable version there either).
Python/Django devs: do you use Celery? And why does it suck for you?
I have joined a new company lately and they heavily use Celery for background tasks (mails, analytics, etc.) for their Django app.

I haven't used it before but I now noticed it sucks. I genuinely don't understand what it offers to developers above standalone RabbitMQ + cron jobs.

And it adds more complexity and reduces transparency a lot.

I was wondering if others share my point of view or do you think Celery is awesome?

I think you may have misinterpreted him. We all tell stories. But ironically I can't stand him as an individual.
a $300 iPhone accessory is not a $4,000 strap-on face computer. That you'd even suggest that is a joke and you should be embarrassed.
>Then it should be up to the user to pin the package to an older version. I want the latest official stable version of e.g. syncthing. If I want an older version, I should be able to pin it that version instead.

Then Debian/Devuan/Gnuinos (FSF) is not for you. I used to pin the backports repo to have the highest priority, as it had the most updated browsers, libreoffice and the kernel while keeping the rest stable. It worked really well.

>I don't want to read a lot of documentation on how to set it up to get the latest official stable version of each program.

Debian has an administration handbook which can be installed offline, you don't have to do for each program. Just read the section on backports, set the priorities right under Synaptic (the easiest way to do that) and rull a full upgrade.
That flashed me back to a vague memory that the film 10,000BC showed mammoths in use building the pyramids, which I thought was incredibly silly (well, it was...). But it's kind of satisfying to know that the building at least overlapped with the mammoths in real life.

> Am I toasted for good

That might be rather harsh wording, but I wouldn't rule it out entirely.

I am in my mid 40s, have been professionally in the business since my 20s and recently "migrated" out as I did not see much potential in it any more.

Admittedly, it also depends on how flexible you are and how willing to adopt the latest trends (to avoid saying fads :) ). If you feel comfortable with that, it shouldn't be "impossible" to stay in the field but the age will certainly still play a factor.

I am not sure how good my advice can be, but if you want to stay technical and with Go, I'd say keep applying for such positions. Many companies will reject you because you may not fulfill their arbitrary requirements, but there'll be eventually a company who recognises your experience and your abilities.

While I am probably biased, I would still say programming has become a rather tough market these days for anyone 35+
There are plenty of ways to build apps. Not so many great ways to monetize them.

> Google pulled out of China over hacking and subsequently refused to censor

My impression is that they had little chance to survive in a Chinese market, competing with a severely limited product against state-sponsored search products while also being a victim of state-sponsored cyberattacks.

It was the morally correct decision, but I don't know if they were leaving any money on the table doing so. I suspect the Google of today would also decide not to shovel cash into an incinerator.
Their friends don't live in their backyards though.
And yes, what jc6 said might be true as well. The public sector often does not immediately go all-in on the latest fads and may have more realistic expectations.

Still, no guarantee either of course.
This. I run stable versions of everything, but for libre games I just compile the latest version over Git/SVN to get new features or campaigns. As games are not an essential tool, I can break things from time to time.
It's honestly nice when it's optional but with tooling understanding the inferred type. (Both LSP and docs) Sometimes you have a function with a single line implementation and an obvious return (bool or string). Having to add explicit types to everything becomes a bit silly.
Don't expect balanced objective opinions on Apple on HN, that was never ever the case. Some of it are tech enthusiasts, some are maybe employees or investors, some is paid PR.

Nothing wrong there per se, its just good to realize it.
DuckDB has great ergonomics for moving data between different databases and making copies for local analysis.
The one thing that differed in my experience with it from the author’s is how much of the Postgres sql dialect (and extensions) it supports. Attempting to run my Postgres analytics sql code in duckdb errors out on most json operations - to be fair, the DuckDB json functions have cleaner names than jsonb_path_query - also, DuckDB has no support for handling xml, so all xpath calls fail as well.

I think what you are pointing out is really really important.

All of this "get SOME work done every day" is really really good, but (atleast in my experience) you have to separate your feelings from likes or stars on social media. Do it for yourself. Do it because you like to do it. Do it because you can develop your inner strength with it. Sure, github stars and a great commit history might give you a dopamine rush, but so does learning to appreciate the struggle and working through it. It doesn't matter what anybody else thinks about it.

Over the past year/months I built a RISC-V CPU in VHDL. It can barely do anything and if I show it to most people they'd probably think it's super boring. But I love it. I love to work on it. I love to let the LEDs blink the way I wanted to, because I achieved to implement some small thing in hardware and see that it works (imagine my dopamine rush the first time it successfully ran gcc-generated code and blinked an LED on actual hardware. That's boring, innit? But I loved it.). It's often a really hard struggle, because the progress is so little, but I learned to force myself to do it, even if I don't want to/don't feel like it, because I know it will bring me joy in the end, even if I hate it for days/weeks. I sitll do it.

Same with journaling, as you said. It's all about the habits. Find your habit and do it.

> "migrated" out

What's not clear to me during that time is, how will this work on pre-M1 / pre-iPhone 15 devices. (also worth noting that iPhone 14 Pro is almost identical to iPhone 15 in terms of CPU... which is odd, especially when someone bought "Pro" tier...)

If I have some "AI" workflow on my MacBook Pro and then it's broken on my iPhone, I would most likely to entirely stop using it, as it's unexpected (I cannot trust it) or in Apple words... lack continuity...

Not ready until every consumer Radeon card is supported 100% day 1, on Linux and Windows+WSL2,with a commitment to keep supporting it for a minimum of 10 years.

To do that AMD must adopt an intermediate representation like Nvidia PTX/SPIR-V that compilers can target, as opposed to per-chip targets (gfx1030 and whatnot) like now. Otherwise they will be perennially behind.
Ye that does seem to be the case. If we are led by idiots, then that means we are idiots too for allowing this to happen
Usually this is done the other way around - servers verifying client devices using a chip the manufacturer put in them and fully trusts. They can trust it, because it's virtually impossible for you (the user) to modify the behavior of this chip. However, you can't put something in Apple's server. So if you don't trust Apple, this improves the trust by... 0%.

Their device says it's been attested. Has it? Who knows? They control the hardware, so can just make the server attest whatever they want, even if it's not true. It'd be trivial to just use a fake hash for the system volume data. You didn't build the attestation chip. You will never find out.

Happy to be proven wrong here, but at first glance the whole idea seems like a sham. This is security theater. It does nothing.
