While her treatment is unjustifiable, her visa was revoked (again, not much justification for this) and then she continued to live in the US for months after it happened. Only after living in the US for months illegally was she detained.

Honestly I don't think we'll see the M4 Ultra at all this year. That they introduced the Studio with an M3 Ultra tells me M4 Ultras are too costly or they don't have capacity to build them. And anyway, I think the M2 Mac Pro

I know it's basically nitpicking competing luxury sports cars at this point, but I am very bothered that existing benchmarks for the M3 show single core perf that is approximately 70% of M4 single core perf. I feel like I should be abl

TikTok provides the "human" element that IG and YouTube do not. On IG and YouTube the algos are shoving "creators" in my face, which is fine sometimes. But TikTok surfaces randos whose only followers are their own family

I've been a part of a few successful rewrites, one definitely larger than what Sonos did. We should let go of some of the JoS dogma. Failed rewrites are the result of mismanagement, not because rewrites are inherently bad.
