You're not wrong, but obesity should not be glossed over so quickly, as it is linked to several varieties of cancer, as well as numerous other serious health conditions.

There's a really good reason why caricature of a highly intelligent individual is a rocket scientist. Engineering rockets that go where you want them to go safely is still a really hard problem!

I've been really enjoying Mark Manson's The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck podcast. He's the best selling author of a book by the same name. Despite the crude name there is a great deal of in depth discussion on a variety

See my other reply for the workflows that I use Stage Manager with. I agree with you about the scrolling, that would be a nice improvement!

I use it mostly in situations where I rapidly need to switch back and forth between 2 or 3 windows. For example developer documentation and an IDE, or Procreate and a photo I'm taking inspiration from. I'll admit I used it a lot

I actually like Stage Manager for certain workflows (on both my Mac and my iPad Pro). I don't leave it on most days, but it is actually something I'd miss if Apple removed it.

I agree with you, however your position is not mutually exclusive to exploring and terraforming other planets and moons.

They might as well quarter the Soldiers in people’s houses since we’re ignoring so much of the rest of the Bill of Rights at this point.

That's not necessarily true. There is something to be said for hand crafted goods. A machine can make me a TV dinner, but it's not the same as what mom used to make. Besides food, furniture, art, leather goods, hand blown glass

I'm curious, how many of these Linux "desktops" are actually Steam Decks? They've sold several million of them from my understanding, which would make them probably the most commercially successful Linux powered desktop

Dr. Dobb’s Journal and the C/C++ Users Journal were my favorite magazines growing up! I miss them both so much. Yes I was a really nerdy kid.

Despite the name, Swift Playgrounds is surprisingly capable. It is much more than just a child's play thing and learning tool. I use it all the time to prototype ideas or whip up quick programs to solve an immediate problem when I&#x

The problem I've found recently is that it's getting harder and harder to find books that are up to date and reflect the current best practices for a given language and its surrounding ecosystem. It seems like most of the current

While there is some overlap in capabilities between the two, Quest 3 is essentially a game console while the Vision Pro is clearly targeted more at productivity.

Mostly an example of cruft, although I do see the potential for this unexpected behavior to cause software to misbehave or crash.

The crux of the problem is not that memory management is difficult, it’s that with unsafe languages it is dangerously error prone. In the 70s and 80s most machines were considerably more resource constrained and either on closed networks o

That's why I said new software. I understand that it is unrealistic to rewrite existing software in many cases.

No one is saying that you can't use unsafe languages or features when you need to. This press release is announcing the release of a report from the White House Office of the National Cyber Director (ONCD) and it is simply a recommend

Also, real world speeds will be even slower for most users because unlike on M1 Macs, most software is still x86/x64 and will need to be run under translation to ARM. This is understandably a chicken and the egg problem of course beca

I know rewrite it in Rust has essentially become a meme at this point, but really there aren't a lot of great reasons to write new software in languages that aren't memory safe. The only compelling reasons I can think of off the

I completely agree, however Windows desktops are in particularly bad shape in this regard as they are the result of continuous evolution from the very first version of DOS with an attempt to keep as much backwards compatibility as possible

Most of our core desktop computer infrastructure was never designed with 24/7 high speed internet access in mind and it shows. I remember MS Office macros being a frequent source of security vulnerabilities as well.

The Windows 95 floppy install was so bad it was worth borrowing a CD-ROM drive from another computer to run the install from instead.
