The M series is a continuation of the A series development that's been going since 2008 when they bought PA Semi, maybe earlier. The M1 could have been branded the A14X but for whatever reason they chose not to, probably to make better

I don't think Google factors into this plan anywhere. The endpoint is iOS devices able to build iOS apps with full fidelity using Xcode for iPad, not a web based IDE. Total control for Apple.

They've built pieces of that already: https://developer.apple.com/xcode-cloud/ I'm not personally very excited about living inside that sealed of a bubble.

It's a hard sell with modern CPUs getting so much faster. At a previous company most of our office build & test machines were refurb HP Z620 or Z640s from a reseller called TekBoost (no relationship). Worked great back then. It mig

TLDR is the M2 13" Pro is about 10% faster than the M1 13" Pro in his testing. Wait, then what's the problem? It has a poorly configured thermal management leading to oscillating power/temperature. It's pretty slopp

M1 Air, Philips PHL272P7VU, all peripherals hanging off the monitor's USB hub. Works fine except for: 1) macOS doesn't support controlling external display brightness, a utility called "MonitorControl" solves that. 2) Au

For self hosting do you hand-manage accounts in Mattermost or use some form of SSO?

I was curious ratios, almonds are more dense but it's not a clear win by water usage. Almonds are about 2x the calories and protein per weight, 10x niacin, 24x vitamin E, but then even or less on things like zinc or folate. TIL.

That's 94%, and it was true vs the original strain immediately after vaccination. Now many people are six months or more past their last shot and the current virus is two years of evolution improved vs the original. Vaccination reduces

The Grouch was great. Or "great" if there were little kids around, intermittent fun reward for throwing file in the trash, what could possibly go wrong? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GE7EWDKVM1Y

I believe the first use of LLVM in MacOS was the OpenGL fallback shader compiler in 10.5 released in 2007.

I ran NT4 on my laptop in the late 90s and remember it was somewhat unusual. A little clunky, my memory is some common things like changing screen resolution required a reboot, but it was more reliable and responsive overall. Most people st

Ah, yeah, and that's an improvement over the historical state of their ML support. For inference the M1 is a nice platform (fastish and power efficient) but for research and training not fast or well supported enough to justify not usi

It makes a little more sense knowing that A/UX install media was hard to find for a long time, until recently (2021?) there were no compatible emulators, and a lot of the real hardware is probably too slow to run Doom or has too little

Depending what you want to do you do you might find it faster to prototype with the Python bindings: https://coremltools.readme.io/docs/model-prediction

For a while I would return the whole mailing in the prepaid envelope. I think it eventually worked.

No, and I'm not convinced this is even a good idea. As a society we are having trouble coordinating around reasoned responses to much of anything. Perhaps we have passed the point where human decision-making is a good idea and instead

We have similar chairs and have to prop them up before the Roomba runs to avoid it getting stuck.

Every time I read about these probes I think about how many of the current team were probably born years after they were launched.

To me the cool thing is working through a PyTorch-based course like FastAI on a local Mac may now be above the tolerably fast threshold.

Can corroborate, my experience working on an upgrade to an existing multi-platform (iOS IAP + Strip for web product) subscription service was certainly a bit painful.

It doesn't have the full camera. Edit: I'm not sure what the disagreement is but it's objectively verifiable that the 13 Mini does not have the same camera setup as the 13 Pro.

Even the small phone user base is probably fragmented between people who want a lower cost phone and people like me that want the Pro or better, just smaller.

You could probably make what you need but it's both unsafe & will most likely get you put on a list depending where you live. There are jobs where you can get hands-on training and experience if you really want it.

I gotta say, for all of my (many, many) criticisms of macOS the save dialog seems fine to me. I almost always have the destination folder already open in Finder, if anything the improvement would be to put a list of Finder's open folde
