It is possible it is the next self-driving car, or nuclear fusion. A sudden exponential set of improvements that allowed everyone to dream that self-driving anything was around the corner. Actual promising real world result that show we are

At Mac Pro pricing (128 GB = $1600) that's $12,800 Of course, I can imagine that there will be a significant discount even just considering the price of high end branded memory outside Apple. Still, Apple has showed no sign of abandoni

The world has to evolve in a different way than it is currently happening. Which is not impossible but those headset development are not cheap so the monetisation is a very high requirement. It is a lot easier to use those headset where the

The problem is that inevitably the boss will forget his signature one day. Who is going to challenge him? And if he his challenged, how will he take it? Even in the West, nobody of low seniority challenges the C-level executive when they ta

Decision driven from bad data is IMO worse than data-less decision. Data grants authority to a decision that gut feel driven one doesn't. It is hard to argue against evidence as it should be, but that assume a certain level of quality

I guess the problem is lead time. You want overspecced because you get one shot every 10-20 years between design, launch windows and the all too present political angle.

Corollary of that is that MVP for library code is very different than MVP for business code. MVP for business code is a great way to get the tool in front of the users and get traction, request for more work. Once you release your library,

I guess that's because they cancel the payment, not the subscription. If you cancel Netflix that way, Netflix isn't told. They will just realise the payment failed and block your account until you upgrade your payment details. App

I may not understand properly what you are saying but here in the UK you can have regular payment on your credit/debit card. Except for Utilities, basically all my recurring payments just happen like that. Netflix does not require a Di

That was the same in the Touring Visa that for a while was "The EU refused" and it became just the opposite a few weeks later. But that's the story of Brexit and its 40 years of media support. Even the BBC has often been on t

That's also why they updated their large sales volume, entry level to average hardware. That will give them loads of data to smooth out the kinks out of Rosetta and the rest of software chain while having enough time to work on the M2.

Or if they don't want to carry you because you need to "cross the river" or get out of Zone 1. Does not happen nearly as often since Uber is squeezing them though.

I combine this with https://github.com/nriley/brightness to retrieve the brightness of the main screen, then I use ddcctl to apply it to the external screen. I set it up in a cron job and that has been running for year

The problem with that is that it is all or nothing. The milder approach I had in mind was that apps require you to register an account outside the app (like amazon) but the purchase is initiated inside the app and outside Apple api. At the

I'm scared of that though. Although on one end I would like to buy my kindle books straight from the app and play xcloud games, I'm thinking of the dodgier companies. Right now I have little to worry about when I leave my kid play

Ignoring the fact that the majority of the source code is not open sourced and that "impact" biggest variable is going to be chance. Impact of one open source project measure slightly more than developer talent. It is a combinatio

There is a "Fight club" feel to this crisis. All the "key worker", necessary job that need to be done regardless the catastrophe society is facing are literally the least desirable job on the market and often the least p

The only reason people are unemployed is that they are confined in their homes. Once they can head to the countryside to pick strawberries, chances are they can just head back to their regular job too.

I knew people like that. First of all, the first few years are a grinding machine and it pays shit (relatively speaking). You spend literally all your waking hours at the bank, w-e included and even when you have some time off, the bank res

That's not the rule in my experience. There is tunnel vision in the technical interviews. You get the tech wizz that has spent his 2 years of experience studying java memory model and think with your 20 years of experience you should k

Isnt' that GS entry in the consumer side of banking though? Apple and GS are very much new player in the credit card world, so any kind of disruption would be interesting. The reason it does not happen is probably that Apple is not in

Maybe the victim have moved on. Rape without physical violence like this rely entirely on the victim testimony and even if there is a record and everything that will weaken the case terribly if the victim is no longer on board.

BTW gender identity is working the other way around. If someone identify as a woman regardless of her genitals, then it would be rude not to call her a woman, especially on the internet where she can live her gender fully without the stress

On the other hand if you are just a mostly normal guy with a dark secret, your normal life generates enormous amount of data and that's fairly easy to misrepresent the tiny bit you want to hide. If you are an avid facebook, instagram,

China is a big growing market and the CCP cleverly share a huge piece of the pie with Western companies. Western Democracies are growth addict and China is their dealer. Another "problem" is that despite its corruption and autocra

Re-run or no re-run does not change much to the threat I mention. The problem is the post-truth targetted propaganda campaign has been de-facto legalised. The current government behaviour, especially in a country without written constitutio
