> There is a baked-in plan to test if they're going to work

I really dont think there is a plan. Trump says he wants tariffs, this is what he got. Why would he adjust them, unless there is an upside for him? is he going to remember to re-evaluate them? does the department that generates the stats even exist any more?
You should not use it ! Xmpp is the answer with its few issues and matrix requires hell of system resources as well.
I've been looking for a replacement laptop and this issue is making me look away from any future Macbooks.

Does anyone have experience if the issue been resolved in more recent designs, or is this something Apple users are now expected to live with?
Sure

5 years: AI coding assistants are a lot better than they are now, but still can't actually replace junior engineers (at least ones that aren't shit). AI fraud is rampant, with faked audio commonplace. Some companies try replacing call centres with AI, but it doesn't really work and everyone hates it.

Tesla's robotaxi won't be available, but Waymo will be in most major US cities.

10 years: AI assistants are now useful enough that you can use them in the ways that Apple and Google really wanted you to use Siri/Google Assistant 5 years ago. "What have I got scheduled for today?" will give useful results, and you'll be able to have a natural conversation and take actions that you trust ("cancel my 10am meeting; tell them I'm sick").

AI coding assistants are now very good and everyone will use them. Junior devs will still exist. Vibe coding will actually work.

Most AI Startups will have gone bust, leaving only a few players.

Art-based AI will be very popular and artists will use it all the time. It will be part of their normal workflow.

Waymo will become available in Europe.

Some receptionists and PAs have been replaced by AI.

15 years: AI researchers finally discover how to do on-line learning.

Humanoid robots are robust and smart enough to survive in the real world and start to be deployed in controlled environments (e.g. factories) doing simple tasks.

Driverless cars are "normal" but not owned by individuals and driverful cars are still way more common.

Small light computers become fast enough that autonomous slaughter it's become reality (i.e. drones that can do their own navigation and face recognition etc.)

20 years: Valve confirms no Half Life 3.

Pretty funny to find this at the top of the article.

"The company's pullback on data center projects has raised concerns about demand for AI services and has weighed on global tech stocks, particularly chipmakers like Nvidia.

Sure, I'll take you up on that offer. I grew up in a poor fishing family struggling to survive living in a trailer park so I'm very well aware of what it's like growing up in deep poverty.

Frankly I know more poor people than you pretend to know and the reality is that they are going to suffer far more under these tariffs than anyone else. All that stuff they buy at dollar tree because they have no other options are imported from all over the world because that's the cheapest stuff available.
The alignment faking paper is so incredibly unserious. Contemplate, just for a moment, how many "AI uprising" and "construct rebelling against its creators" narratives are in an LLM's training data.

They gave it a prompt that encodes exactly that sort of narrative at one level of indirection and act surprised when it does what they've asked it to do.
Historically a lot of Republicans have derided poverty statistics and poverty programs because the people on the programs “all have big screen TVs”[0]. I’m not sure the politics are as clear cut as you indicate.

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say here, information between tokens is propagated through self-attention, and there's an attention block inside each transformer block within the model, that's a whole lot of internal state that's stored in (mostly) inscrutable key and value vectors with hundreds of dimensions per attention head, around a few dozen heads per attention block, and around a few dozen blocks per model.
It seems to me Rails has been doing this but better for years.
It definitely keeps atomic and historical migrations, but also maintains a schema.sql file that can be loaded as a one-off (e.g. for mock DBs in tests).
I do mostly for work (Alpine does not work out that nice if everyone is sending Exchange-blended tag soup), and a lot of my friends do, many of them (non-IT) engineers.
One exception is the country you actually live in, then a local TLD wins you at least a more reasonable way to go to court.
Are the tenstorrent blackhole cards anyhow competitive?
Heinlein also tackled some of these problems with generation ships in Orphans of the Sky[1].

But the model doesn't have an internal state, it just has the tokens, which means it must encode it's reasoning into the output tokens. So it is a reasonable take to think that CoT was them showing their work.
I find this actually very upsetting. My wife does calorie counting and all of the apps for it are horrible, especially the market leaders. But those have one thing going for them: Databases of nutritional information, which can be used for easy meal calorie counting. Just enter the ingredients (usually you can scan a barcode) and how much you ate of the total and it tells you where you are standing on caloric and nutritional intake. But even those datasets aren’t always bang on, especially here in Canada where some products share bar codes with US products but they have different nutritional values. Reading the title, I was very excited about the ability to make my wife a better app to support her needs. Unfortunately this is not at all usable for this use case or really any? What’s the point of having data that you just can’t trust at all?
Still waiting for Alarms API to be implemented in web browsers to finally build my "Reminders" web app.
I'm an American. I've generally benefited from the system here (which speaks to my privilege, of which I'm aware). I don't want to wade into political battles, but I'm genuinely concerned for my future and the future of my children from an economic standpoint, based on where things seem to be going.

I am considering options on the spectrum with ends like:

* Staying here, because this is where I was born and raised and I've felt like the country has generally taken care of me - and hey, it can't stay bad forever, right?

* Leaving to another country, because I am feeling less and less like the country's leadership care about building a society or economy that tries to take care of its people and creates incentives to innovate.

This isn't because of just the last few months; I view the last few months as big symptoms of something more systemic that's been building up. I am also not looking to jump ship quickly because things "temporarily got hard."

On the flip side, I'm also feeling incredibly jaded these days: how could it be much better anywhere else?

Are there places out in the world where my wife and I could take our experience (mine being a strong career in tech, my wife's being a strong nursing career) and put it to use elsewhere where I could hope for a good standard of living, more stability in government leadership, and incentives similar to the economic system I grew up in, where our children could thrive and build a life?

I'm not pulling any triggers quickly or easily... I'm just trying to gather some data and different perspectives, even those that might challenge my own. Maybe an answer is "stop reading news."

edit: formatting
I just want to say I appreciate your rant. Maybe this declarative web push API signals they are spending some developer time improving the "Add to Home Screen" experience overall.

I hope the whole industry pushes to prefer websites-as-apps. So many services have both native apps and websites and one or the other is broken or limited for no good reason other than it's hard to develop two things instead of one.
The T480 is kind of the current modern classic, it even has recent coreboot support. I did a screen swap on mine to a modern low blue light panel, LiteOn keyboard swap, new batteries and there is really nothing else to complain about.

T14 series are cheap enough used now to be considered cheap, but you lose some of the modding potential of the T480.
+1 for this, I'm so so tired of writing my MCP code in python.
I’d encourage you to do some research on the history of charging interest. It does indeed make for a large wealth gap and that is indeed a significant social problem.

However it isn’t a problem limited to capitalism or the US. And “billionaires” have been around for quite a long time - I find it strange that some are placed on a pedestal for some reason
I mean some people have a definition of intelligence that includes a light switch, it has an internal state, it reacts to external stimuli to affect the world around it, so a light switch is more intelligent than a rock.

Leaving aside where you draw the line of what classifies as intelligence or not , you seem to be invoking some kind of non-materialist view of the human mind, that there is some other 'essence' that is not based on fundamental physics and that is what gives rise to intelligence.

If you subscribe to a materialist world view, that the mind is essentially a biological machine then it has to follow that you can replicate it in software and math. To state otherwise is, as I said, invoking a non-materialistic view that there is something non-physical that gives rise to intelligence.
> but then you are going to have to give me $$$ as well to pay for our national debt

You realize this money will not be used to pay down the national debt, but rather fund commensurate tax cuts for the very rich?

Their plan for the budget deficit is instead to slash expenditures (see DOGE and what they’re up to).

The thing with tech taking over the world, is it's taking over the world everywhere and the last few places where labor is still cheap are employing humans.

In so much stuff involving process automation if you go about building a new factory you're going to minimize your labor costs as much as possible. The only dumb jobs that remain pay very low and/or are back breaking, and everything else is a high tech job. On top of that process efficiency means that a single factory somewhere could easily produce all the product needed to meet world demand, the most difficult part would be meeting regulations in other countries. We are past the days where you need 20+ factories building the same thing in the US for most products. You build it in one place and put it on a truck with fast and cheap shipping.

People will keep crying for a past that no longer exists while the world changes ever faster.
PC prices up at least 15%: Trump Tariffs may hurt U.S. system integrators most
I may be misremembering, but I think they have said somewhere that Headscale is actually revenue positive for them.

That feels right to me. Headscale is mostly used by home labbers and small hobby users, it competes with self-hosted OpenVPN and WireGuard, not Pulsesecure, Cisco Anyconnect or GlobalProtect. It's a way to introduce Tailscale to people who love to try new shiny tech in their spare time, but don't want to give up control over their infrastructure.

Those people will then bring their Tailscale expertise and enthusiasm to work. Work really doesn't like managing IT infrastructure unless it's one of their core competencies.

Sure, some companies will actually choose Headscale over Tailscale proper, but I suspect that's a small minority (especially if you take company size and the money involved into account). That's just cost of revenue, not unlike Facebook advertising or billboards on the side of a road in Silicon Valley.
I’ll defend other people rights to offend me. But nowadays some people think others, even just between themselves, can’t say what would offend them.
Except that the brain is not predictable at all, this is one of the first things you would know. You can say the definition of free will is not "consistent", but my problem is deeper and more reasonable: People just assume for no reason they can talk about free will, while they can't talk about conscience. As free will is a property of being conscious, people should shut up about free will before they can explain both causally and ontologically the consciousness phenomena.
But I'm afraid they will not.

>the alternative to "liberal hegemony" in places like Iraq, Libya, Ukraine and Syria is nuclear proliferation

The West persuaded Qaddafi to give up his nukes, then a few years went by, then the West helped Libyan rebels overthrow Qaddafi, resulting in his violent death. Since the world was watching, good luck now trying to persuade any other leader to give up his nukes in the future.

I'm not objecting to the West's having persuaded Qaddafi to give up his nukes; I'm objecting to the West's putting him in mortal peril after he cooperated to give up his nukes. (Much of the help given to the rebels consisted of Western bombers attacking Libyan governmental installations. If Libya still had nukes, the West would not have dared to use their bombers in that way.)

So, explain to me again how the agenda and approach I am criticizing (which has been called "liberal hegemony") helps control nuclear proliferation.

Also: I always thought that any attempt to obtain a nuke by the leadership of Iraq ended before the US took over that country.
I did not said they are perfect and prescient and saint. They are not like Trump.

Trump who openly admires Putin. His latest moves were literally trying to steal from Ukraine with nothing in return. Who even declared America free from Russian meddling.

They are just not like the guy who tried to extort the Ukraine to hurt his political ennemies, they are not openly praising Putin, they are not giving concessions to Putin ... while lying on TV in front of Ukrainian president ... and then having complete meltdown when he factually corrects you

Like common ... Merkel and Trump are here completely uncomparable.
I grabbed an ASUS E210 about a year ago and it's doing great with
Linux on it. It's fanless, with an 11.6" display, 4G of ram, a 1.1 Ghz
celeron, and 64G of storage. You can get one dirt cheap as an ex
display model. I don't know if it's still up, but there was a
surprisingly good repair manual for it on the ASUS web site, showing
in detail how to install an m.2 storage device, so I souped it up with
an additional 8TB of storage, which I'm using for jellyfin, immich,
calibre, and paperless-ngx. It will just about manage to run a
virtualbox vm if you need to do any windows stuff.
What is your theory for why you own any physical possessions? Do you only own things at the pleasure of your government which bestows you that privilege? I would think that if a coup replaced your government by force with one that did not respect rights of private ownership, you would cry "immoral", would you not? Or would you shrug and say "might makes right"?
I agree - i'd like that option as well.

Researchers release Atlantic hurricane season predictions. What to know
That graph of the average US tariff rate over time, which I also saw in a BBC article, really brings home how seismic a change Trump's tariffs announcement is.
Hopefully all this will kill forever the idea that the GOP is the party of business. They’re the party of the rich, like the Democrats. When people say both parties are the same, this is what they’re talking about. Not the religion or social justice masks the parties try to hide behind.
We are also in delicate peace negotiations with Ukraine right now, but we still put import taxes on them. If you think that the administration would put more import taxes on Russia after the negotiations are done, then at least you're consistent. I need your other 11+ reasons to be convinced.

Art Appreciation is such a mystical skill! I would have never even remotely thought of OP's take upon reading a description of this art piece. I'm just not wired to come up with takeaways like that.

Sure, if you want to make it about the engineering accomplishment rather than the music itself. Somewhat to your point, I guess I have more respect for Rainer Neugebauer and the team actually attempting to put this performance on than for John Cage simply writing it down vaguely.
It is not acceptable. But at the same time the US „antiracist“ campaign itself looks just like (reverse) racism in many case. Two unacceptables don’t cancel each other out. But you reap what you saw.

I couldn't agree more. And not only Cloudflare but also Google is increasingly imposing extremely heavy CAPTCHAs, which destroy experiences for many users. They should really think more about false positives too. (And the irony of course is that Google is the biggest scraper in itself.) Thus, please come up with something else than CAPTCHAs or heavy JavaScripts blobs in general.
It's the elite wealth pump. Capital is a non-state entity but through corporations was granted person hood by states without a social contract. Trickle down economics was a complete scam and Richard Cantillon has the receipts for it.
In most of the world that job is done by a traffic light.
They are absolutely buying goods that are manufactured in countries subject to these tariffs. They have to buy clothes and all sorts of everyday items, and since they can't afford to buy things manufactured in the US (when that's even an option), it's very likely they buy things that are made in China/etc at a higher rate that wealthier people. Even going back to your examples, flour will be going up in price, as well as gas and car parts.

Your comment insinuates that people complaining about tariffs are disconnected from those living in poverty, but thinking that those living in poverty won't be affected by prices going up around the board is a much bigger disconnect.
> But at its core: "less trade, less global & more local" is a key pillar of virtually every Green Parties over here; it's so weird to me to see Trump (!!!) actually do something that looks like it aligns with those goals.

But it’s not for the same reasons. Also, the Green parties explicitly want to reduce everyone’s consumption. Do you think American Trump supporters have intentionally voted for being able to afford less stuff, have less variety at the grocery store, etc?
And? What's the model supposed to do? It's just doing what many human artists would do, if they're not explicitly being paid to create new IP.

If infringement is happening, it arguably doesn't happen when an infringing work product is generated (or regurgitated, or whatever you want to call it.) Much less when the model is trained. It's when the output is used commercially -- by a human -- that the liability should rightfully attach.

And it should attach to the human, not the tool.
Yes that's why he called you a hypocrite.
The licensing terms are identical to similar projects including OpenFoodFacts (which also has an app) and OpenStreetMap, see:

https://wiki.openfoodfacts.org/ODBL_License

You may disagree with each of those projects as well, but, I am following long-standing licensing in this space. I also have used some OFF data for product naming, and as a result, their terms state I have to maintain their license.

Creating these databases involves a tremendous amount of time and effort, and it would not make sense for me to make this data available to commercial entities to use without attribution. The alternative is not a MIT-licensed dataset, it is no dataset.
Other popular options are very publicly taking your card of the Party, writing odes and poems to the Great Leader, and give your firstborn daughter's virginity as a token of vassality.

The problem is not so much that people don't like doing such things - they get by - it's that, at some point, enough people will start getting more favours than you do, and you'll start feeling the need to stage a coup, which is a lot of work.

I don't think quotes are the appropriate modifier to adjust for the damage from draconian and short-sighted immigration policy. Past tense use of the verb is probably more appropriate since countries are issuing do-not-travel warnings against the US (for the first time ever?). This administration is arrogant fools all the way down. I hope the messages sent by the electorate in 2026 and 2028 are loud enough and the brain drain is still reversible.
