> laying out the knobs in similar order? I mean, it's File-Edit-View and Cut-Copy-Paste, and laid out like the 6 strings of a guitar... This is a bit condescending. There’s much more nuance, variation, experimentation in synthesizer

Your argument for adobe’s motivation seems to support anti-competitive practice that the EU might be concerned about.

flat maps are not quite what many assume they are, some panacea for performance. In fact for most cases, you will still benefit from using the ordinary maps already provided in C++. In fact if you merely swap out std::map with std::flat_map

This course includes Swift language tutorials and the author has said it replaces the original 100 days of Swift course in most cases, which was UIKit-centric.

No, it won't be Reactive Native or any other. There are no cross-platform UI wars any more. There are efforts at this, all with huge compromises, but working with a native UI toolkit on any platform will always offer a superior develop

What did you find? The code is quite widely used, and I’ve also used it extensively for years without any problems.

And in C++ can also use this dead-simple header file for a nice high-level, modern threadpool using function objects (lambdas) for very easy parallelization of arbitrary tasks: https://github.com/progschj/ThreadPool

I would recommend one of the Herman Miller chairs. They are not cheap but they are high quality. They don't fold but they do have wheels and are easily washable with lots of water, built like tanks, just fine for the outdoors.

So did I… are there no original names left? My company used the other Bracket extensively for years. Also at first confusing is that the logo is the very recognizable Apple II logo.

Ah, that could be it. I did not know the history, nothing in the article makes that point, not that it would need to I guess for people who already understand the history of the language.

I'm confused about the comparison here. I've never heard of Mojo before, but reading this and all the discussion of the main languages on Apple's platform, you'd think that Mojo was somehow an alternative for development

Ah, another “why I’m leaving X” post, I’ve never seen these kinds of posts as particularly fruitful regardless of the language they go on about. Engineers can assess the pros and cons of a technology for themselves based on their needs, and

1994 already feels a tad late in my memory, everyone at my high school already had email in 1993, and we knew several families with internet in their house by 1992.

That's a good point, maybe eventually some of the tech will leak out and not actually require wearing the goggles. Regarding phones, I see your point there too, but at least with phones people can still look up make eye contact, easily

I use quite a few Apple products every day of the last 10 years, and I’m very impressed with certainly all the technology and reviews and explanations of how this device works and what the user experience will be. However, this is the first

That’s incorrect. Bootcamp has not existed for a while now.

You can still do so with VMs, officially endorsed. But Bootcamp is RIP. Asahi Linux is not a VM, so not a fair comparison.

A 2X price difference is certainly believable, but I was responding to the suggestion of a 10X price difference.

Surely they can see the result of the sale after it has transacted though, right? Doesn’t the system that is used to ring the stuff up show the payment history for the order that’s currently being prepared?

They are expensive but 10X certainly seems like a stretch. Show me comparably specd hardware only 10% the price of an Apple machine?

There have been multiple reports of the last couple years that Apple has been informally internally helping the Asahi Linux team to make it run well on their hardware. Apple cannot come out and officially support another operating system of

I’ve owned both windows and Apple computers, quite many of them, over the last 20 years. On average, the Apple machines last at least twice as long as the windows machines while still being fully usable. One could argue just based on that b

I’ve heard that CircleCI uses clojure extensively, not sure if that counts as a true lisp. There’s also Metabase, also written in it.
