With the rapidly increasing problem of resistance to known antibiotics the idea of voluntarily implanting a foreign body in yourself seems crazy to me. WHO says "Antibiotic resistance is one of the biggest threats to global health, foo

Quite a lot of testing in Final Cut and Logic etc showing very good performance and efficient swap. So for most consumer apps it works well. No magic if you need a big block of memory for ML or analytics.

The point is that they don’t need to. They are not selling advertising, they are selling privacy as a service. E.g. Apple maps breaks apart your journey on their side so they can’t reconstruct your journey from a to b.

This article gives a pretty good overview of the components that make the M1 different (nb. I'm not a hardware person): https://debugger.medium.com/why-is-apples-m1-chip-so-fast-32...

The comments mainly relate to the Mac OS implementation, which is clearly very early and not fit for production. As he points out the iOS version is more stable. The company I work for are already shipping a SwiftUI iOS app, and plan anothe

This approach seems to be simply implementing short-circuit boolean operators e.g. as soon as any AND condition is false, then false; as soon as any OR condition is true return true. The first example of evaluates every condition in a botto

Good article. I’ve been fortunate to try them all, even SmallTalk when it was released for the Mac in the 80’s. Lots of code in Lisp and C. Not as much in Haskell. My favourite so far are the ML family and F# in particular. The only languag

I agree. I found Jonathan Frankle’s interview on the NLP highlights podcast to be a great explanation of the findings, and provided some really good intuitions for how deep learning behaves. https://podcasts.apple.com/us&#x2

That’s because everyone dies! The article avoids mentioning that cancer rates have risen as other causes, particularly infections, have declined over many decades. The average lifespan has increased globally. In developed countries this is

It is a disease and survival has dramatically increased because of amazing progress in treatments. Just look at the recent drop in cancer mortality in the US. It is incorrect and irresponsible to blame people who get cancer for eating badly

I agree with this. I’ve been in the AI field(s) for over 25 years and I really wanted to like this podcast. The people Lex gets on are amazing, but I haven’t been able to get through any of the episodes as they get too philosophical. I unde

AI winters are caused because people keep thinking the effort required to achieve some improvement is linear instead of exponential.

It’s a beautiful 3D game of life in the shape of a brain. I don’t think it follows particular pathways.

We had a day or two of 48 C in Adelaide earlier in the year which I’ve never experienced before. Walking around in 43 C heat today didn’t feel as bad in comparison! Still 39 C at 7:30 pm, getting up to 45C on Friday. It’s going to be a bad

I used and programmed HyperCard quite a bit back in the day (even C extensions into HyperCard!). The jump from HyperCard to web is bigger than it appears from the UI: - to make HC work on the hardware at the time it had quite a lot of optim

If that's the case you're not using all the features of your phone correctly — at least the iPhone 11. I was shooting Canon for about 12 years and now have a Sony A7rIII because of it's amazing eye-autofocus, and a heap of le

The font includes both oblique (i.e. italic not cursive) and the cursive versions, so you don't have to use cursive if you prefer not to. It's a very extensive and detailed piece of work.

At WWDC the speaker said that apps can deactivate the gesture if it conflicts with pre-existing functions. I don’t know why they haven’t.

If you can get that close with your phone the animal is probably scared. I’d watch an animal ‘big brother’ show with DL generated subtitles though. Couldn’t be worse than the one with people.

Path. A private social network with a great UI. We set it up for our extended family and the children could use it without exposure to Facebook etc. Path had nice UI innovations that were later merged into other platforms. I guess people pr
