This was my question too. Pretty sure banks just never do background checks just to hold accounts.

Watched a few of his videos just last week - the YT algorithm must love him. Really, really good photography and narration - worth a watch IMO.

It's great. Hurt a little spending that much at once but it fixed so many small issues it just feels great.

I don't do this specifically, but if you can go without $2k for a few weeks you can take advantage of Apple's permissive return policy and just demo for IIRC 14 days.

Well I do light music production - mostly on the Studio. For photography work it's been fine. But I haven't done multiple-minute exports since buying it so I can't really say. I _can_ say that under my normal workloads (codin

It's like they sandbagged themselves knowing they were going to change the whole game in a few years.

Makes sense! As a photographer and DJ even the MBP runs out of ports pretty quickly, so I had a standing collection of travel hubs for this already + a CalDigit thunderbolt hub for home.

Agreed - it's great that the battery life on the pro is so good now, but that extra weight is, to me, the difference between noticeable and not noticeable.

My new setup as of November is an M2 Air (16GB /1 TB) and an base model M1 Studio. I really couldn't be happier. I run a small WFH / Music Production / Photography studio in my basement and I really wanted an always-on a

I want to say that Gmail, Google Maps, and Google's office suite represented jumps in usability akin to a total revolution for users. The first two I know for sure were developed in house, and are of course still running strong. To me

It's hard now, but this is a 20 year plan to replace the fleet. Already a budget item for the city, and, possibly, the frontline for union concerns about automation.

Interesting wrinkle I'd have to think any fully electric car is a better target for autonomous retrofitting, because the drivetrain is already completely fly-by-wire? Using a random estimate, a $100,000/vehicle autonomous retrofit

Well, a union rep is quoted in the article, which was weird. His statement was also a little weird. The conclusions and the math involved don't really add up for me. They laid the groundwork for a fight against _any_ conversion to elec

This smells to me at least a little bit like union pressure to slow the transition to electric vehicles, which is just a hop from fully autonomous city vehicles, putting them all out of work forever.

Sounds extreme but you're basically describing every TV studio + a standard uniform. Not so crazy for entertainment professionals.

I've seen abbreviations but never code names as far as I know. The times I didn't recognize a name I was able to google and see a story about it. Now I'll be on the lookout =)

Interesting. In NYC they invariably post the name of the show on the parking permits they have to publicly post to shut down streets (which I'm guessing 100% of shoot need to do out here). Crowds generally just don't form in NYC t

yeah honestly as someone who approves/denies features from time to time... I love the mission statement, but this would be rejected 100% for the slow animation. Just absolutely no. UX is hard! you can put a TON of well-intentioned work

it's a pretty common case to be parsing thousands of locally-stored pages. There are only so many cores and the task of scraping an entire site can still easily still be CPU limited.

Great memories with this library, one of my all time favs. It is fast? no. But it had a fantastic mission: extracting data from malformed HTML. Might be less common now but back then (~10+ years ago) it was still rampant. Many if not most p

good engineering... sure. But I'm not sure there are any other disciplines where a single person does it regularly. I think the difference is we're not dealing with anything physical. A structural engineer never has the leeway to
