Apple has its share of naming problems but not attempting to artificially split their laptop product line between consumer and "enterprise" is something they should get credit for.

Absolutely. I'm a paramedic. I will be in front of a licensing hearing defending why should be allowed to continue as a paramedic to the DOH if I refuse to treat a patient because of politics/beliefs, as an EMS provider.

Depending on the severity, I can even be facing administrative charges of patient abandonment under my state's Administrative Code for standards of care for providers.
Pixel 4a Battery Performance Program
I had a 2021 model. It was pretty poor in all aspects. Slow, laggy on the desktop just clicking around. Loud when doing anything resembling work. Very poor audio. Bad keyboard. 4 hour battery.

I switched to a new M1 MacBook Air and it was like going from a Cessna 150 to an F-15. Everything on the M1 MBA was decades ahead of the XPS.

Everyone and their brother now sells a much better product than XPS, and often for nearly half the cash. I picked up an Asus Vivo last year. Very nice product, half the cost of the XPS they had on offer, but with the same specs and screen.

It feels like it was engineered as a unit, much like the MBA. The XPS in comparison is a parts bin special.
This is great. What do you use? Can you reveal technical details if I wanted to build something like that myself?
It is certainly helpful to hang up a shingle where all the people are — the mall, the town square, the marketplace — but your patrons should know that a bridge exists to your flagship, your headquarters, your farm, your factory of ideas.
Product names make no sense. Some web sites make a "product selection tool" where you answer a bunch of questions and it tries to direct you to models that will suit your needs.

I was recently buying a Seasonic power supply. What is the difference between Prime, Vertex, Focus, or Core series? Then there is Prime TX, Prime PX, Prime GX. I have no idea what all this is. I ended up just picking something in the 800W range with the modular power outputs that I needed.
Wow, how does that work? Archive.org can't possibly archive every YouTube video, right?

If you're genuinely worried about it, give yourself a weekly "off-day" where you take the AI training wheels off. Closest equivalent for me is I'll occassionally write Chinese by hand. Do I really need to in the age of modern IMEs like Sogou? No, but I appreciate the deliberate cognitive load.
In fact Zuck _was_ a hero back then, as was Elon.

People with power tend to change. With being in power, their perspective on the world shifts, often for the worse.

Zuck originally wanted fully free speech, this is in fact what everyone wanted in that time. Then appeared the massive abuse in the unavoidable echo chambers. Zuck was hence forced to be the judge between good and bad speech/content, up to being in court. The filtering had to happen with advanced algorithms since fully manual was impossible to pull off. The funding happened by advertising, so the move to algorithms upping engagement was only logical.

Elon on the other hand went all the way from the nerd being bullied at the playground, via the acceleration of electrical transport, up to buying the world's biggest software playground and obtaining a large part of world's communication and transport hardware infrastructure. He's more convinced than ever of the power of capitalism, for the good and the bad.

I don't know how that helps. Watching TV with my kid has been the best way to teach him I've found. There are great videos and shows that you can watch together and then discuss afterwords.

I'm in a similar position that I'm personally doing okay but almost everyone I grew up with has had to either leave Canada for the US, had to live with their parents into their 30s or more to very remote / rural areas to afford life.
It's a contraction of "it is" so " 'tis " is correct.

Them potentially violating my copyrights is very much my business. But you're right, the difference is how much the respective parties have to spend on legal battles.

Simply showing up to court wearing a tshirt that says "what she said" probably wouldn't fly, but I like to imagine that any arguments made by them about their copyrights would be equally true of my copyrights.

At this point I'm mostly wondering if "you ripped me off first" is a viable legal defense to copyright battles where it's unclear if either party is distributing the works of the other. One thing is for sure though, if I were to do this as an individual, the discovery process would be much more expensive for them than me.
Same. iPhone 14 Pro, both safari and chrome. Eventually the sound stops and it gets super laggy.

Almost kind of fitting.
> On Mac, the Music app (not to be confused with the streaming service) is fantastic

Strong disagree. I find Apple Music (the app) on MacOS to be terrible.

A good 1/2 of the main screen is taken up by a view with a random mix of artwork from the playlist. I find it useless, and it can't be hidden. . Also, there is no way to set the default view to just show songs, instead of the crappy "playlist view".

Search. It's hidden on the sidebar of playlists/sources and you have to scroll to the top to get to it. And then, the choice of whether to search local/Apple Music is on a toggle button on the other side of the screen.

Lyrics - you can't change the font, or adjust the size in normal mode, and when played in fullscreen, the background colours often obscure the lyrics so they're unreadable.

And finally Apple can't seem to decide between a Heart or a Star for songs that you love.
If people can't understand why this is happening, understand that Trudeau has been in power for 9 years and basically everything is worse than when he started.

I’ve just completed a port from HTMX to Hotwire (Stimulus, Turbo). HTMX is a great idea, but in my experience it’s a poor execution.

It’s really quite buggy, in my experience it plays poorly with fundamental web and browser features (relative links are broken in at least 2 ways, I fixed a third way). One of the events just stopped working at all in the most recent release. The docs are lacking. And where it promises to let you write less JS, if you ever do need to write some JS you’re on your own in structuring that, and you’ll be fighting against HTMX (who gets to update the DOM, maintaining event handlers, etc).

As a (brief) contributor to HTMX, I also feel like these issues were all inevitable. It’s a single 5k line file with 190 top level functions in it meaning it’s pretty impenetrable to get up to speed on. When proposing a bug fix the maintainers weren’t sure if it would have other consequences. Tests didn’t cover the functionality. I’ve been mostly a backend engineer in my career, and I empathise with not wanting the complexity of a modern frontend, but that doesn’t mean we can’t have some basic organisation of the code to make it approachable and more obvious whether changes will work or not.

After porting to Turbo and Stimulus I have a more reliable code base, I have significantly less JavaScript, and I have a JS code base that much easier to reason about. I really wanted to like HTMX but the execution is not there. A focus on stability is a great fit for the project, but it’s most certainly not there yet and has quite a way to go in my experience.
It uses LPDDR5X-8000, with a 256-bit memory interface (double in comparison with standard desktops).

8 GHz x 32 bytes = 256 GB/s

This has been known for a long time.

What annoys me is that AMD does not say whether the Zen 5 cores of Strix Halo have full vector processing pipelines, like Granite Ridge and Fire Range, or they have the narrow pipelines of Strix Point and Krackan Point.
I always do a little bit of research on the author online beforehand. If I'm going to read a non-fiction book I need to know if the author is credible.

I got a refurb XPS from the Dell store on eBay. Its problems are numerous, but not fatal. I do appreciate that it has a 17" display. I'm not sure anyone(?) does large screens on laptops anymore.
XPS pre-dates them acquiring Alienware, it made more sense at the time. That was their premium consumer/gaming line.

Dell bought Alienware in 2006 though so they took their sweet time before cleaning up the product lines.

Symbolic actions like painting "BLM" on a street are cute and all, but that doesn't mean they supported the protests. In fact, the cities such as New York and Chicago had some of the most violent suppression of protests by their police forces, despite loudly claiming to support BLM. Actions ultimately speak louder than words.

> Yes, of course. There are reasons I don't bank with every bank under the sun.

You haven’t seen the quality of software developers at the typical bank have you?

And which banking issues have you had to deal with because the supposed insecurity of Apple and Android with respect to the banking apps?

> Meanwhile FDIC is insured via taxpayer money and so my taxes absolutely cover the fraud perpetuated by whoever.

Your funds aren’t insured by taxpayer money. Banks pay into the system based on the deposits they have.

And if you trust the fraud protection of your bank? Why are you worried about supposedly insecure phones that would cause fraud even though that hasn’t happen since the modern phone?

You mentioned the FDIC which only governs the US. If you are in a car accident or have an illness, you are going to get treated outside of the US?

Yep, and not forgetting that serial ports on a computer were (at the time) expensive, and the sounds most synths were capable of were.. kind of simple. So there was the motivation for stacking multiple synths up to produce bigger/richer sound, doing keyboard splits (possible on some hardware of the time but not most), as well as driving many devices from a single port.

Multi timbral synths (different sounds addressable per MIDI channel) were a later thing too, analog polysynths could play more than one voice, but very few could play more than maybe two different _sounds_ at once.
I think there is a misunderstanding of the engineering challenges in some of these projects.

The Big Dig was less than 10 miles, never deeper than roughly 100 ft. TARP is over 100 miles always deeper than 100 ft. And because of intended use, it all has to be dug through solid limestone bedrock. The engineering challenges are non trivial in both, but one is on a massive scale that the other is just not.

Speaking to the Seattle example, the reason for building the streets higher is that, in Seattle, people would have revolted if they had decree'd "All shalt raise thine buildings 12 to 24 feet as did the multitudes in Chicago." That's what I mean. Seattle is the example that proves the rule. No one had the political capital to force a Chicago style raise on Seattle.

That said, between you and me, as an engineer, I would have done things the Seattle way and left the buildings at ground level. Raised the streets and then turn the formerly ground level floors into basements. It's not the end of the world if basements flood from time to time. And some drainage might even help with that. Chicago, on the other hand, wanted the "complete" solution. They were done with dealing with floods. Even in basements, they were intent on eradicating flooding. Which is a laudable goal, and Chicago has been much better off because of it. But the risk and the cost is just a whole lot higher than I would have felt comfortable with given the tech available to me at the time.
These trends wouldn't be trends if they didn't work. The game can be awful and distracting, yet still succeed at garnering engagement. Not just in spite of the stimulation but partially due to the stimulation. It's not self defeating or hypocritical, it's a bad thing, an indictment, and also engaging all at the same time.
CGoaB is a fantastic resource. It contains great stories, resources, and life lessons. Highly recommend.

> This is honestly a better piece of contemporary art (in terms of making you think about modern life and what is happening to our environment, the impact on ourselves, our kids, etc.)

Zooming out, I think games in general is in a much better position to do this, as a medium, compared to the alternatives TV, movies and music.

I guess mainly because it's interactive, but it also feels like it can be broader than the other mediums, like on one hand you have Idle/Clicker games like these, and on the other the huge blockbuster AAA games.
Still mostly anecdotal, but a better answer, and probably belongs higher up in the thread actually.
> To be honest I've never implemented it, even for a demo, and not found a bug.

Me too. I tend to roll my own property testers / fuzzers per project instead of using a library. But my experience is similar to yours. Out of maybe 25 testers, I think the only times I didn’t find any bugs was when I messed up the tests themselves.

It’s incredibly humbling work.
"They’re replacing all of these old brands with Dell, Dell Pro, and Dell Pro Max, and within each of these, there will be three tiers: Base, Plus, and Premium."

I am a Lenovo guy myself, however I like what they are trying to do. If they actually do a good separation, that would be great. If they only do 9 level of computers, that would be a good change.

Kinda ThinkPad T, X, P. But more clear. And again, I only use ThinkPads T, P, or Xs.

Is there a model benchmarking site where you can select varying degrees of models by source code and see how they perform on different hardware. It would assist people to evaluate whether or not a specific piece of hardware is good for the jobs that they want it to do.

I’m not sure I’d agree. The HX attributes encode a lot of functionality and you want to check that they do the right thing together. You can test you get the right attributes in a response, but that’s only a proxy for the application doing the right thing, so you most likely still need the end to end tests.

The problem is that end to end tests are the hardest kind to write. At least if you have a frontend code base you can have some tests there and get some confidence about things working at a lower level.
