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…

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 out…

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 re…

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…

And it reopens the discussion about all its training on unattributed scrapped data.

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…

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.

That was repeated a bunch of time during the keynote: "familiar"

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 trac…

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 a…

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 paymen…

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 me…

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 sof…

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 …

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 purchas…

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 h…

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 sligh…

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…

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 t…

Borders. That's the problem in the EU. Cooperation for massive infrastructure project beyond a single line or a tunnel is very hard to achieve. Discount airlines are discount mostl…

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…

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 …

Massive increase in personal computer power (cloud or physical). Internet and resources like stack overflow. Back in the days, I remember the isolation. First from the domain, we c…

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 reas…
