Medium-enriched is generally defined as anything in the 10-90% enrichment range. The IAEA is extremely clear that Iran possessed medium-enriched uranium as far back as 2010: https://www.iaea.org/sites/default/files

Because Israel needs it more.

Iran has had a stockpile of >100kg medium-enriched uranium for decades. The "enough for 9-10 nuclear weapons" scare line has been repeated since the 1990s, and it's not really any better of an argument today.

If that strategy was the only strategy, then it would have already been done, there would be no desire for diplomatic resolution here. Optics-wise, banking on social unrest has failed, and if the US escalates it to a Dresden situation then

When Microsoft futzes with the MBR and locks out Linux users, we complain. When Apple futzes with the APFS partition flags, we complain. It's not that hard to understand. > why would they, or any major OEM? Apple Silicon doesn'

> Apple is very pro Asahi I don't believe that Apple has ever acknowledged the project at all, let alone promote it. Apple is neutral towards their work as far as I can tell.

Because it was a featureset they supported without trouble on prior Macs? The onus is on Apple to not make iBoot suck, they don't get a free pass for Microsoft-level boot volume ignorance.

It's Apple's bootloader. They were the ones that chose to use iBoot and not implement UEFI-style booting like prior Macs.

Indeed, but also free compilers, which lowered the cost of creating new software to $0.00 long before AI services did. Many of the expenses in making a successful software business are a total fiction for both customers and employees from t

macOS, as shipped, is only Unix-like. Even when configured to pass UNIX certification, it doesn't qualify without the temporary waivers: if you want your installation of macOS 15.0 to pass the UNIX® 03 certification test suites, yo

X11 and sysvinit are not downstream KParts libs like KHTML was. KDE has no obligation to fork or support either project.

macOS and Windows are both such a chore for development, though. WSL was the closest I got to an "it just works" dev environment, but it exposes just how bad native toolchains like Cygwin and git bash are. macOS is hardly any bett

Nix is also worth checking out, even if the Darwin packaging is a bit flaky. I really appreciate having cross-platform devshells when I have to alternate between Mac and Linux on a regular basis.

KHTML is dead now, though. It was basically embraced, extended and extinguished by Apple and Google, who both wanted to take away the leverage of the community. Today, legacy KHTML maintainers are boxed-out of upstream decisions that might

Who replaces Nvidia? That's the 5 trillion dollar question, and nobody has stepped forward to answer it. The closest the industry came to replacing CUDA was with Khronos and OpenCL, but that ship has sailed. CDNA, Apple Silicon, Intel

Arguably, they don't take one in the chest. Luigi Mangione lives in notoriety what he did; most people can't even name the CEO he killed, let alone frame them as a martyr. I disagree with theories of continual revolution, but it
