Hasn't this project been running for (checks notes) almost ten years now? Isn't that enough runway to determine that it's never going to replace AOSP at this rate?
What Apple's C1 modem may mean for the future of the iPad
The drive so far has been to scale up to push performance, not to reduce cost. Although everyone offers cheaper versions of models they don't base their marketing on these. Now that the momentum of scaling up on training is slowing down they are pushing inference time computes and efficiency comes to the forefront.
Poor people tend to rent, don't have money to invest in better insulation or higher quality housing.

Good news is the UK government has been increasing, and wants to further increase*, the legal minimum energy efficiency of rental properties.

The bad news is the current* UK requirement is still so low that the 39 m^2 apartment I let out in the UK costs more to heat *badly*, than my 100-ish m^2 new passiv-ish house in Germany costs to be T-shirt temperature inside while watching the snow fall outside. (And that UK apartment is one of the better ones in the building; I used to live in it, one of my requirements when buying was double glazing, not all the apartments in that building had double glazing).

Also bad news is that my agency is telling me to not do anything more than the legal minimum to upgrade it, that I should instead wait for the requirements to get stricter before actually doing anything more.

Of course they absolutely do actually get things upgraded when rules change. In the UK, changing the rules does work.

I think the lack of public information about their future plans for the project combined with the “killed by Google” meme got smashed together here and that is actually a really common perception but also one that is completely made up out of thin air.

It has been under heavy heavy development for many years now.

The fact that they are now starting to talk about it publicly now is probably a sign that they are looking to move beyond just IoT in the future.

For example, I know it’s coming to Android (not necessarily as a replacement but as a VM) and I know there is some plans around consolidating ChromeOS and Android as well. I expect that is also going to be another place we might see it before too long.

I know they are also working on a full Linux compatibility layer called Starnix [1] as well where I believe the goal is you can just run all your Linux workloads on Fuchsia without any changes is the goal AFAIK so you can probably extrapolate from there that the end state is going to be roughly in line with anywhere Linux runs currently is a good potential fit for Fuchsia and it will come with a lot of additional security guarantees on top of it that is going to make it particularly attractive.

No disrespect, it's important to have people paying attention to these things or they would just never get fixed, but that's my take away from once being excited about going potentially going into this field to seeing what the day to day work was like
You write a decent amount of tests
I build things like this in similarly low quantity - you are probably looking at a grand or two toaster kit there, 95% of which is the custom parts - if it was done locally. The time for someone else to do it is what your paying for. It can be done exceptionally cheap in dollars if YOU do it, but you'll still pay with your time, and you'll still need machine access.

Cheap and easy "factory" quality is probably PCBWAY or similar in China - they do more than PCBs these days. Call it "prototype" budget - several hundred dollars of parts instead of thousands.
This is not new.

If you have an appetite for risk and have liquidity, it could be an excellent buying opportunity
Using the backend services (iTunes Connect, etc.) is painful.

Also, don't get me started on the current state of "documentation." At one time, Apple had a huge team of ridiculously overqualified documentation people. They often had better chops than the engineers.

How are you planning to buy a house without cashing out stock investments?
Although probably intended to target large platforms, the OSA is worded in such a way as to apply to nearly everyone who provides any kind of service that allows user-to-user interaction. It is (rightly) ostensibly intended to prevent abuse, terrorism, grooming, and similar activities, but it requires a full risk assessment against around 10 different possible interactions, and the paperwork is potentially onerous.

But worse, the fines are potentially in the tens of millions of pounds, and even inadvertent non-compliance can result in extensive prison time.

Of course, the government says they won't go after the small organisations, but if the wind changes, the legislation is there. Even if the risk is extremely small, the penalties are life-destroying.

As a result, many are deciding it's simply not worth the risk.

Yeah I really don't like that phrasing. Take off and landing is the most dangerous part of flying but only makes up a tiny percentage of the total flight. If that 3% of the time referenced is the most dangerous or most critical 3% of time then it hardly matters how easy the rest of it is.

I have a consistently reproducible, if edge-case crash in Apple Music for at least a couple years now. I host a DAAP server (using the OwnTone software) to listen to my music with using Apple Music. It doesn't happen with a freshly-opened Music instance, but if it's been open for a while, then I pause, then restart the server instance, Apple Music crashes. I've reported every crash with a copy/paste of the repro steps in the comment.
I'm still talking about the field as a whole; I'm just saying "should the field exist" is a different question than "does the field generate good enough results for the Defense Department to rely on". See also my other comment, "I also don't think the Pentagon has the expertise necessary to tell good social science from bad."

Not so surprising that now that the Saudis have built infrastructure to support tourism, more people are visiting? I would go, who doesn't like stunning ruins built by cursed vegetarians?
Unfortunately, Overcast's update towards the tail of last year ruined it for me and many others. It no longer functions reliably in my experience.
The real question is what happens in that 3%. If they are still able to control the drones that is very different from they set the drones to kill your own people. (This is DARPA so we can assume killing people is a goal in some form). There is a lot in between too.
Is it similar to NixOS? Recent convert, would be interested to read a comparison to fuchsia from someone in the know of both.

If it’s anywhere close Google might be sat on a huge opportunity to tread the same ground while solving the ergonomic issues that NixOS has. (I’ve never been more happy with a distro, but I’ll admit it took me months to crack)

sending her designs out
There's no meaningful technological difference between what that static recompilation tool can do for you vs. what hacking up Xenia can. I'd also hazard a guess that that port's GitHub repo will get DMCA'd eventually, and rightfully so.

I really don't know why people keep doing this to themselves and to the communities they claim to love. This is about as far from a clean-room reimplementation and porting effort as humanly possible. It's not a forward-thinking, sustainable preservation effort at all.
Quality of life is about to take a very hard hit, directly because of the level of inequality [0].

You can't separate these things and expect the world to make sense. When the ultra-wealthy capture too much of the levers of power, and strip-mine all our potential just to get a bit more in a bid for total control, quality of life for humanity suffers.

We've been suffering for it, as I explained above, and we're going to see a lot more of the same. House prices could double in the next 5 years. Even if you own a house or 6 and think that's just great, society will suffer and quality of life will fall.

You might think that owning houses, starting families, clean water, living oceans, a habitable biosphere and healthy division of power don't affect quality of life, but I promise you, they do. And those things are suffering, because of the level of inequality we have reached.

... Let's say, being generous and ignoring a lot of negative externalities, that we actually have improved average quality of life by 10% over the last 50 years. Put that in context - productivity has doubled. Where did all the difference go? ... And what are the beneficiaries of this wealth doing with that money?

The level of inequality is huge, and rising rapidly. That comes with a very serious level of existential threat to life on Earth itself; not just its quality.

I thought the point was the absurdity of trade with your adversaries. Why is it bad with Europe does it but fine when the US does it? Surely we could have eliminated all trade with Iran if we wanted, but the reality is we don't want to just like Europe does not want to stop trading for Energy with Russia.
The problem was tightening the money supply, this is common knowledge. It is why the central bankers always flood the system with liquidity when things go south now.

I would honestly pay a monthly fee for a board like this that is completely devoid of political nonsense. It is just so boring to read in every subject.
i remember burning a pile, like 15 cm thick, of paper notes once. i still have another one but i didn't parsed to the computer yet

you don't know how sacred to me is my scratch (temporary) file on Emacs or my org documents or Gimp files with stuff like studies of games platform level design (quite easy to screenshot views and highlight stuff i want to comment) or digital collages material

for me there isn't anything closer than having a coffee after weeks/months without having one, Android running Emacs on Termux in my pocket and going for a walk with or without a science podcast playing... ironically the last thing i did on paper was the tinker of specific apps layers layouts on my keyboard (now i use an online keyboard editor alongside a text document)
Europeans went wild with their social welfare spending so badly that now they need to import 3rd worlders because they have too many people who are on the government dole and not enough young people to pay into the system. Quite ironically, these "guests" are ending up eating away further from the welfare system and repaying their hosts with terrorism, as was recently seen, and will continue to be seen.

Also, it's easy to have social welfare when you have a homogeneous high-trust society... The more migrants the EU lets in, the more you see the whole thing deteriorate.

There's no such thing as "free" anyway, it's always paid by someone else. Pension at 60 is unsustainable, free education just devalues it, making it harder to fire people makes it harder to hire people, etc...

Europe is in economic decline, it's in population decline (as many other western nations btw), it's becoming more authoritarian (the UK prolly arrests more people for social media posts than Russia nowadays), and it's failing to compete on the world stage.

HR departments are trained to say exactly two things: whether or not the person worked there and the person's dates of employment. Anything else can result in a lawsuit.
They rewrote many of their tools in SwiftUI.

So far, I am not willing to ship anything in SwiftUI. I don't think it's up to the task.
The term is useless then. Every state military action is terrorism by that definition.
I would say the same thing about for-profit joint-stock ownership, I think there's a lot of subjective value embedded in ideology of the political economy. Especially when combined with VC-funding it can provide growth, but growth was never the primary pitch—it was collectively-rational division of resources, services, and labor. On that mark, our globalized division of resources strikes me as having failed on the face of it. No smartphone is flashy enough to fully occlude the enormously inequitable division of labor that produced it, nor the enormous political-economic consequences of such coercion.
Anything to listen to?
You misread, that's not what I wrote.
Seconding this. Feels actively anti-user even if this is just a bunch of heuristics that end up choosing the wrong thing. Honestly, why is this not a dropdown?

Related bug: macOS defaults to variable refresh rate when available instead of remembering my choice of 144hz. This is confounded by my hub (Caldigit TS3 Plus), which has trouble with variable refresh rates that result in a black screen.

The cherry on top: either I use a HDMI cable and deal with BetterDisplay forcing RGB to fix YCbCr, or a black screen when using DP through my hub due to the above bug.

Sometimes I wish Apple would get broken up just so macOS could have a chance at getting more love.
The point is the mediation via your demands+the way Microsoft and you had a geographic constraint.
Latency will always be an issue with distant tele-operation from the control source. Best to have local autonomy while waiting for latent instructions. The more autonomous the drone is, the farther away an effective control source can be. Usually the control source is not across the globe, but in the closest safe distance. For pack-drones that is close enough that latency isn't an issue.
Or AlphaStar from DeepMind.
A lot of it stems from justified, systemic mistrust, eg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biopreparat

The road to perestroika and glasnost hit a dead end a loooooong time ago. Global diplomatic reform simply isn't possible with a Putin administration in control of Russia. They refuse to honor their word and therefore are impossible to negotiate with on good-faith terms.

I've only bought two toasters in my life.

The first was a two-slice Kenmore (RIP Sears) which still works. It cost $20 and was purchased close to 25 years ago. I only used this a couple times a week and now the usage is very sporadic, but it always works when I need it to.

The second was a Cuisinart toaster oven, which is not exactly a toaster but has ended up being our primary toaster. I have no idea how old it is since we bought it at a garage sale for $5 about 5 years ago. This is used almost daily, sometimes multiple times a day, and for a lot more than just toast.

I can see buying one more toaster, meaning a toaster oven, in my life, but it will probably be to get new functionality (e.g., air fryer, larger capacity, etc) instead of replacing something broken.
That's an interesting idea actually. It's true that this PR policy generates a lot of noise.

Sure but we are talking about economics, and now the list includes our two biggest trading partners. Why he thinks making every day Canadians hate us is good strategy is beyond me.
> that generally require more runtime logic and safety checks.

These safety checks and runtime logic are a constant factor in the performance of a given java application.

Further, they are mostly miniscule compared to other things you are paying for by using java. The class check requires loading the object from main memory/cpu cache but the actual check is a single cycle cmp check. Considering the fact that that object will then be immediately used by the following code (hence warm in cache) the price really isn't comparable to the already existing overhead of reaching down into ram to fetch it.

I won't say there aren't algorithms that will suffer, particularly if you are doing really heavy data crunching that extra check can be somewhat murder. However, in the very grand scheme of things, it's nothing compared to all the memory loading that goes on in a typical java application.

That is to say, the extra class cast on an `ArrayList<Point>` is nothing compared to the cost of the memory lookups when you do

int sum = 0;
for (var point : points) {
sum += point.x + point.y + point.z
}

> Not only could America have had better benefits than Europe but you guys chose over and over again not to yet it’s Europe’s fault.

The social welfare experiment has negative expectation. That's partly why the Europeans are importing young migrants from 3rd world countries who despise them -- they are running out of people who pay into the ponzi scheme.

I can't wait for Trump to exit NATO and show that the European king really had no clothes after all.
On the technical side, if you have actually worked with certain stuff you will have gone through certain experiences that everybody else has gone through. Some tools are absolutely necessary but horrible to work with in certain ways. Some libraries are a pain in the back to use, but are unavoidable. Compiling certain components may be a huge pain.

Stupid example: the person claims they know CSS, and you bring up the subject of aligning a div for the first time.
