I had one with I think a 7th gen Intel processor, and while it ran Linux pretty well the coil whine was enough to drive me absolutely batty. I made it about a year before I traded it in.

The Macbook was thinner and lighter than the Macbook Air.

I would love a competitively-priced pro-motion external display, but Apple historically has not paid much attention to this space. I was disappointed in macos, with Apple Intelligence stealing most of the oxygen to (at best) middling result

That 30-300 dollars is just the range of virtual machines you are connecting to-- I can't imagine it is very surprising that a personal VM starts at around 30 dollars per month and GPU-enabled machines would be substantially more expen

Thank you for taking the time to explain. I was honestly a little shocked to hear about RH moving away from RHV, but glad to hear there is some interoperability between some of these tools.

by jhickok 2y ago
Looks like that tool typically targets KVM as a source. My understanding is that Red Hat's own virtualization platform is transitioning from RHEV to OpenShift. If that is true, are you actively moving customers from vmware to OpenShift

I would be surprised if he made any official decisions based on his faith.

I would suspect both a general economic slowdown, and also a rebalancing of investment dollars to chase the production of widgets that we would now have incentive to produce locally.

I'm out over my skis a bit on this one, but out of curiosity (and having never experienced it), what sort of leverage does a business have demanding free support from contributors that are under no obligation to provide it? Those seem

It's pretty much the perfect linux laptop for me, but I will never willingly a laptop with a function row like that. A non-tactile ESC key is especially head-scratching.

I have never really been proficient in Excel and I've always sort of been drawn to Python+Pandas+DataWranglers, but I am sorta interested in Python for Excel when it is released for Mac. I'll at least give it a shot!

Thank you for nice comment! I already have a job I enjoy, but I still take note of the tech field economic climate by monitoring recruiter activity. Of course, the issue could always be me!

by jhickok 2y ago
This has been my experience as well. I think in a year I had maybe 2-5 recruiters reach out, and in the last 1-2 months it has been more or less every week.

My one concern is that nano-texture apple displays are a little more sensitive to damage, and even being super careful with my MBPs I get the little marks from the keyboard when you carry the laptop with your hand squeezing the lid and bott

by jhickok 2y ago
I feel the same way. I have a really nice MBP and I cannot justify a dedicated desktop when a single thunderbolt cable to my laptop does the job just fine, but I do love the value and design. Maybe I'll pick one up for the kids .

The author breaks out both: "Red Hat will have paid back the cash for its cost in revenues and nearly four times that acquisition cost over the same time in market cap gains."

Thanks, I am definitely going to look into this.

I've been using Zen for around 2 months now as I mentally prepare to leave Google Chrome, and I have been pleasantly surprised. A few annoyances: * there are bugs-- for example, I have been unable to launch Zen and I just get the bounc

Microsoft "trains" on business data already, but typically for things like fine-tuning security automation and recognizing malicious signals. It sure would be a big step to reading chats and email and feeding them in to a model.

Thanks I hate it. Seriously tho, I've already used this twice at work today.

I understand that many people believe that, but I don't take it that there is broad consensus-- or any consensus-- that the Big Bang represents the beginning of anything save our the beginning of what we can reasonably infer and observ

Both P1 and P2 of Craig's argument are problematic, although I admittedly have a hard time following the transfinite gymnastics one way or the other for P2. But for P1 it's not clear to me that there is a logical problem with so

I'm glad you like his style! I find him incredibly approachable and clear for some of the reasons you outlined above. He also take great pains to be a clear communicator, which you can see in pieces of media like his appearance on Sean

Eric is a fantastic writer and I highly suggest his books including a recent collection of his works in "The Weirdness of the World". Finding "Describing Inner Experience" in grad school had a profound effect on me.

I honestly think it could be the opposite, and we will have entire high-quality works of fiction at our fingertips.

I would actually be surprised if companies are focusing on profit at this stage.

It's odd that someone would be surprised David Lewis on the list. Lewis was the most important figure to the most important grad schools on the east coast for decades.
