The equipment in chip fabs is highly sensitive to weather and natural disasters. So sites like Arizona, Austin, Oregon are chosen due to low prevalence of earthquakes no hurricanes etc.

The fabs anyways don’t ship chips to the devices they go into, they do to a separate site where they get tested, packaged and then are sent off.

The reason to onshore this is not about scale but process capability and adding security to supply chain in case Taiwan gets in a conflict. It’s not about scale but ability to produce high yielding chips at shrinking technology size, is vastly becoming a physics problem at smaller nodes.

Reality is that Samsung and Intel could run a similar fab but their yields, efficiency and process development is lagging behind TSMC. So easier to onshore TSMC process here that help Intel learn how to speedrun transition to foundry model (producing others chip designs)

Exactly, same as panic! in Rust.

There is a reason Rust was reluctant to add std::panic::catch_unwind at first. The docs thus explicitly mention that (1) it is not a typical exception mechanism and (2) that it might not even catch panics if unwinding is disabled (common for embedded and restricted development).
Appreciate it, thank you for the support.

Syncthing was unreliable for me, I would not always sync stuff. I'd have two machines on and sitting next to each other on the same network and not see sync happening.

I tried to install nextcloud on a digital ocean droplet and a borked installation corrupted everything in a way I didn't think was even possible on Linux. I had to restore from a backup.

I tried to use owncloud locally on a raspberry pi but the client app on Mac and Windows, I tried for about a week to get it to sync but every time I opened up either machine I seemed to have to stop and restart the client and even then it wouldn't always connect.
No language or linter will be perfect, and IMO unit tests should be written for what the compiler doesn't do for you. In this case, your unit tests missed code paths, which should show up in a code coverage analysis or fuzz test.
1. I've found it to be extremely buggy, often in confusing ways. E.g. there was a bug where it couldn't find `curl` if you were in more than 32 Linux groups.

2. It has some kind of pinning system that is completely incomprehensible. For example you can do `opam install .`, which works fine, and then `git switch some_other_branch; opam install .` and it will actually still install the old branch?? Honestly I've never figured out what on earth it's trying to do but me and my colleagues have had constant issues with it.

> Compared to what?

Compared to good tooling like Cargo and Go and NPM and uv (if you give it some slack for having to deal with Python).

It's better than Pip, but that doesn't take much.
...and then the judges, so anything that does get enforced gets ignored. It's like someone bringing a lighter and matches to a board game tournament: "there's nothing in the rules against it..."
As others said, it depends on the company.

It also depends on the country, what you can ask and get varies wildly depending on the place.

I always found refernces to be ridiculous. I never ptovide any and one company that asked got on touch with my good friends (ex-coworkers or not) whi explained that I was the nest Jesus, with an incredible background in technology and management skills that would make Trump pale in comparison.

They wanted to talk with my prevous boss but, what a shame, it is illegal here. They would have had good feedback as well, though not new religion grade as the ones they got (and they told me that they were great).

I did less great on IQ tests where I ranked between a chair and a fly but apparently this did not matter after all.
That is surely the elephant in the room.. every time it’s been litigated before the court in the past, the Act has been found constitutional but who knows with this specific set of justices and their obsequiousness to Trump and his executive branch.

It's insane that anyone actually believes that it's being done for efficiency.

It's not, and never was.

It's being done a) to drive people to quit, so they don't have to lay them off, and b) to restore the power dynamic to the status quo ante, where your manager could just look over at your cubicle and see you in your seat, and know that whether or not you were working, you were still there to bow to them. (And many of them genuinely have zero metric for gauging "how much is Aurornis working?" besides measuring the amount of time a butt is in a seat, and are desperate to avoid having to admit that.)
Aircraft can be grounded, so I'd say in some cases some more stringent enforcement is needed
The problem is the people who quit because they cannot work are not those you want to lay off. Those who stay in those conditions? That's those who were not adding anything useful before.
Huge upvote from me as well. Think of all the folks out there who have this idea and instead of searching for it, finding nothing, and implementing, now they can either move on or try to fiddle with this works' output.

Herbert and similar are the release of information, the main "psi phenomenon" explored over the XX century being precisely the remotely induced belief in "psi phenomena". That rabbit hole goes deep, though I have my doubts as to whether it leads out.
I really wouldn't object if some of the rules in the Go world currently living in the broad linter space were to be moved to the compiler. To a point Go's ecosystem has some reasonable defaults but it could be a bit stricter I think.
Cool. As long as you know this is 'just for fun'.
It’s obvious, given the current geopolitical climate, that this announcement is about more than electric power generation.

Not necessarily. Maybe this is not called MITM, but you have to put something in the middle :)

Sure.

You are confused what this attack is about. Say I want to embed some widget on my website by which I can receive payments. I have to register my websites domain (technically protocol+domain(+port), aka origin) with the widget's provider. CORS is then used to make sure no-one can embed the widget, but those with registered origins.

Only browsers are known to enforce CORS (do the checks AND provide the correct origin when doing the checks). Hence the MITM attack I propose works: the MITM does NOT give the correct origin to the real server.

'Gamers' are now everyone. 1.7 billion men and 1.39 billion women - essentially anyone with a mobile device. One of the biggest gaming hits of the last decade was Pokemon Go, which literally requires a walk.

Sure Americans, and increasingly Europeans are tending toward obesity, but suggesting thats a characteristic of 'gamers' as a class is just factually incorrect.

>If you get an irresponsible government or power company that cheaps out in 30 years

One solution is to house government officials and their families close-by so they're incentivized to never cheap out.
Yes, I don't think many people realize this but we have like ~46 years of oil left in total. That's not very much. It will just keep getting more expensive. Even if we keep burning coal for electricity, we still have 140 years of that left, so it's just a matter of relatively short time until the optimum flips in favor of electric.

> I'm very, very bullish on EVs, they're going to take over the world rapidly but this graph isn't great support as you can't see the exponential rise very well and it's swamped by other data inluences.

One thing people don't realize is that EVs are going to be SO MASSIVELY CHEAPER than ICE cars that we will see massive changes in behaviour and socioeconomic dynamics in society. I think we will see a day where a new car won't be much more expensive than a new fridge.

What happens when everyone who can afford a fridge can afford a car? And drive it for next to nothing? With car repair basically being a non issue (just throw away and get a new one)?

Some societies are not equipped for that. Roads will need to be repaired much more often (due to EV weight as well). Tire microplastic particles are going to be much bigger problem (but less gas emissions at least). Gas taxes used to pay for road infrastructure in some countries, that doesn't work anymore. Electricity taxes? But then you are taxing people who don't use the roads as much. IoT meters on cars beeping your location to the government (UK actually proposed this)? Battery fire management? Recycling (especially for the batteries)?

Car manufacturing won't be a big industry that matters that much for the overall economy anymore.

Lots of countries where a lot of the population use motorized-scooters/motorcycles will move to use bigger cars. Traffic is going to get much worse everywhere, public transport will become less attractive. Parking demand will skyrocket.

People who already own cars will resist any form of government control to reduce traffic/parking. US car-centric lifestyle will be exported to all of the developing world. If anything the US and Canada are only of the few countries prepared for this new world (the only places where everyone, even poor people, own cars and drive everywhere).
Since this thread might actually catch the eye of some people who are responsible for these kinds of things (nothing ever seems to happen with stuff that comes up in the Apple Support forums), I'll add my current pet peeve bug:

On iOS, I use the notes app to keep track of my workout routine. Just a simple table with columns for exercises and rows for workout sessions. For a while now, there's a bug where the text gets confused about which row it should display on. Only in some columns though. So in one or a few columns, the entry for the last workout will be a few rows above where it should be – sometimes it's between rows. When I press the cell in the bottom row to input a new entry, the text marker will end up somewhere above. This bug is quite inconsistent, but often persists between reboots of the app. It seems to have something to do with there being empty cells in a column

Anyone else experience this?

As an Italian abroad, this came out of the blue and I was not expecting this change of mind, at all. There have been two referendums on nuclear energy in Italy: one just after the disaster of Chernobyl. They tried again decades later, in 2011; just after the disaster of Fukushima. The result was of course overwhelmingly negative both times.

This is great news, and will hopefully lower the cost of electricity that we mostly import from France.

Tons of voters reverse many of their positions if you explain the issues to them without using the labels they’re used to.

I’m not sure “they could have known, but didn’t bother to learn, and instead voted based on Fox News and talk radio and podcast and Facebook post bullshit” is enough to say they didn’t vote for this. If it is, that’s… kinda usually the case.
Many of them are trapped by work visas.
This is such a bizarre story, so obviously just an attack on social democracy.

Blames privatisation and yet in no way explains why that affected house buildings which was not privatised, talking about an entirely different law.

And then it doesn't mention Brexit once.

This is such an obviously ultra-right wing biased and trash article, I have no idea why it's being upvoted so much.

> A talk with the title “my API demystified”

But that’s not the title of the session.

The title of the session was “Background execution demystified”

Background execution is a computer science topic that many don’t understand well. Much like font antialiasing or other computer science topics that people don’t have to deal with daily.

Note: I’m not saying Apple APIs are great. I was just originally pointing out the context of your post.
I have had issues involving connecting external monitors that cause my Mac laptop to freeze for _14 years_. 3 different Mac laptops, numerous external monitors.

It doesn't happen often, maybe once every one or 2 months. But it requires a full reboot.
Note that by creating the reference to a local and passing it up through the callback, you are using a fresh region that can’t possibly outlive any of one of the ones you are generic over. Fundamentally, that callback could stash the reference you pass it into state somewhere and now the pointer has escaped, invalidated as soon as that iteration of the loops ends.

See that the definition of Group is tying those together. Instead, you can split them apart and maybe use HRTB to ensure the closure _must_ be able to treat the lifetime as fresh? But then you’ll probably have other issues…

… which can largely be circumvented simply by pinning, in your reduced example, which probably doesn’t retain enough detail.

Compulsive shopping is surging: what makes people buy loads of stuff
Late last year after an OS update, notifications in macOS mysteriously stopped popping up. They were getting triggered and could be seen by opening the right sidebar, but the banners were no longer popping up in the corner anymore. I had been using them to remind me of any upcoming meetings in my employer's Google calendar, so when they stopped appearing, I suddenly found myself unintentionally missing those meetings altogether. (I found a workaround by using Slack's Google calendar integration to send me reminders there.)

Well, turned out that although the Focus -> Do Not Disturb settings had been disabled, the settings were behaving as though they were enabled anyway! It was set to only allow certain apps to show banners. Only when I changed this setting (a few months later nevertheless) did notification banners finally start working properly as before. Perhaps I ran into an extreme edge case that the Apple engineers overlooked somehow, but it does make me wonder whether they are doing anything at all to identify and cover such edge cases.
The needless repetition. Makes it really hard to read imho. It's note a language issue but one of concise thought. I'd argue you can reduce the amount of text by 50% while retaining almost all of the information.

e.g., instead of:

Transaction logs are an essential part of databases because they ensure that no data is lost even when a system failure occurs. They are a history log of all changes and actions in a database system. This ensures that no data is lost due to failures, such as a power failure or a server crash. The log contains sufficient information about each transaction that has already been executed, so the database server can recover the database cluster by replaying the changes and actions in the transaction log in the event of a server crash.

something like:

Transaction logs keep a record of all changes in a database. This allows data recovery in case of system failures like power outages or server crashes. They store enough information to replay transactions. This can restore the database to its last consistent state.
> and they do an orderly shutdown. Or they should

Which is exactly what panic does.
I don't even much care. I couldn't see myself driving back to ICE purely on account of the driving experience. They feel like janky fragile technology from the past with too many moving parts.

My car got totalled in September and I had to replace it. Since I didn't drive much at the time I entertained just getting a super cheap old ICE to replace it. Then I started remembering all the annoying maintenance.

Still, back to DC fast charging... I use it rarely. But it's not cheap. And it's a shit non-standardized, fragmented experience.
> I keep hearing stuff like this, but it doesn't seem to be widespread enough to seem to matter, at least in my circle.

It also hasn't fully hit yet. The layoffs are in progress, already awarded grant money is still paying salaries. 3-6 months is when the pain will really begin. Until then, I think a lot of people are still thinking that it either won't really happen to them, or that Trump will somehow make an exception just for their particular federal money pipeline.

> they want to change that by feeding a processor to create an AI creator based on wetware creations...for free.

This is actually more of what I was talking about, making stuff up to make yourself angrier.

Where are they doing anything AI related with your data? Where's the proof?

There's none, because they're not, it's something you've come up with just now out of literal thin air.

Let's examine the actual wording in excruciating detail because apparently that's needed

> It also includes a nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license for the purpose of doing as you request with the content you input in Firefox.

Non-exclusive: The right they claim doesn't stop you or anyone else from claiming the same or similar rights.

Royalty free: They won't pay you for it.

Worldwide: It doesn't matter which jurisdiction you're in.

"Doing as you request in Firefox": Carrying out operations which might mean moving your data from your local machine to a remote one, such as making web requests with requests bodies formed from data you've input.

In total: This means they have the non-exclusive right, without need for payment from you and no matter where you are in the world, for Firefox to do what you've asked it to do with your data. When you posted this comment, that was you telling Firefox to move some data to the internet for you. That is what this legal text and the right they claim provides to you.

In the old internet they didn't need to write any legalese for this, their legal team think they might need to now because the landscape has changed. That's it.

> Imagine a Mill, Lathe or 3D-Printer would do that.

If your mill, lathe or 3d printer could publish your data to the internet I guarantee you with 100% certainty they would include licensing text accomplishing roughly the same thing.
It's not even just Apple. All the major tech software I use feels like it has significant regressions on the daily. It's super frustrating.
But they should've shown their assertions and proof thereof beforehand. It's been pointed out that they say organizations are wasteful, but those are vague weasel words; show some numbers, do a root cause analysis and fix what is broken.

But the goal is not to fix what isn't working, it never was - it's a diversion and an excuse to dismantle the federal government, checks and balances, and move to an unchecked oligarchy/autocracy. Taking the whole country with them, of course.
