I'm eagerly looking forward to and hoping the research project to add `Set Theoretic Types` to the language will work. It will help replace tooling like dialyzer in many cases (which many people love/hate). It will also have benef

Yes for some. But I still would say you are missing the forest for the trees.

What is your metric? We have weapons that can end our entire human species. Never before in the history of our entire planet was this even been a possibility. Its like living with a loaded gun to your head. Not to mention the impending clim

Death and calamity is going to be the theme of the next 100 years and beyond. Climate change, mass displacement, cheap & effective propaganda, ignorance, resource contention, soil degradation, nuclear proliferation. We've only had

The iPhone 12 Mini is great. I will never go back to a bigger phone again. The lack of all day battery life is a feature in my opinion. I use it more like a fancy tool.

Bingo. They most likely didn’t care. It was all a means to an end. I would be combing this data to see if any active users that were inciting a call to violence are employees or contractors of say: Epoch Times, Members of Congress or their

“Some folks” is approaching near 50/50 split of the population of the US who have been led to believe “socialism” is worse than death. I know so, because my friend goes to church and they are now talking about this in their sermons...G

American news is the WWE of news. Nothing wrong with his position.

It’s a first generation chip in a thin-and-light laptop. I suspect all those problems will be fixed as they scale it up. Not to mention their unique position of leverage dedicated acceleration silicon in their software now.

YouTube has grown by triple digits. Those video “content creators”, from those just messing around to the professional film makers, are a huge opportunity for Apple to secure mind share in. Billions of views on YouTube. Billions of videos t

All I care about is the hardware acceleration of video codecs. If a $1400 M1 powered MacBook Pro can edit and cut 8K Canon RAW Light And ALL-I HEVC from the Canon R5, it’s very attractive to me.

I hate conspiracies but I honestly think the IoT concept is an extremely terrible idea and perhaps even a cultural and societal nuclear bomb.

Can't wait to see the "everything working as normal, nothing to see here" comments. The hoax virus is a hoax until more and more people know someone that died from it. Nothing wrong with the postal service until your grandma

America as an ideal has failed and anyone who wants to come here should think twice. Every country has their problems, but years of neglect and backwards thinking on social, civic, and cultural “brick work” has led to this. The civil rights

This sounds like where the US is heading. Corrupt. Greed. Lack of civil service, empathy, and duty. People have a right to be angry. They have a right to demand to fix the problems that lead to their loved ones exploding on a otherwise peac

That’s like saying genocide is ok because we need to decrease our population. They are mutual exclusive motivations.

Fascist strategies plain and simple. This is corruption folks. This is how seemingly functioning democracies slip into tyranny. Greed, lust for power, hatred.

The main thing Apple has done to improve their A-series chips has been massive L2 caches. I still major advantages of putting a A-series chip into a MacBook Pro. 1) There will be a much larger thermal and power draw envelope available to ne

I don’t think these are hacks. They aren’t bubble gum and duck tape. They are well tested solutions for current physical limitations.

Freedom of speech or the “right to say anything you want” is a myth. I’m sure you view would be different if someone started tweeting hateful things towards you that incited others to take potential harmful actions, no? This is the problem

I agree. We are seeing the weaponization of the internet like nothing before. It's becoming more dangerous than nuclear weapons at this point. When people can't come to a consensus on basic reality and are primed to respond with h

I always feel like Erlang and more generally BEAM is the language for a lot of today’s problems but will never see any kind of traction because of “worse is better”.

Hopefully Apple will go back to being a integrated hardware and software company. It makes absolute sense to me for a future MacBook Pro to have a great AMD/Intel CPU and one of their high performance A13X chips with neural accelerator

YouTubers already don’t make a lot of money off Adsense. The shift is already happening with companies working with individual youtubers. An integrated ad from someone you like/trust/have a relationship with is orders of magnitude

Maybe this virus will kill enough baby boomers to balance the social security solvency and transfer wealth up a few generations. I’d you don’t agree with me, than what makes what I said any different than the Topic of this thread.

Google is easy to get rid of. It requires willpower. 1. Don’t use or get off gmail (fastmail is good but not free). 2. Limit your use of google search. If you need to try to mask your identity as best you can. 3. Don’t buy google hardware.
