Whether or not it will ever see the light of day (and what use case it will actually solve) is another question, but it’s basically confirmed that Apple is in fact working on this! https://www.macrumors.com/2024/08&#x2F

As a child of the 90s, I see this as one of those rare, genuine examples of the “museum in cyberspace” imagined by the futurists of the day. Thank you for keeping the dream alive!

The casual, patent absurdity juxtaposed with the ennui of modern life at a corporate job is, in a genuine literary sense, Kafkaeque . Bravo. That said, this also feels like something of a relic from the zero-interest-rate era when jobs lik

On the other end, save Inland Empire for after you've seen a lot of his filmography and are in the mood for a challenge. I wouldn't call it his best work, but it is Lynch at his most singular and uncompromising.

Exactly; in other words, a telephoto may just be "a crop of a wide-angle," but in a wide-angle lens, the area any given field of view covers on a sensor will always be lower resolution than than if it were spread across the entire

Some people may not be familiar with the fact that BlackMagic Design incorporated its motion graphics and VFX package, Fusion, into Resolve a few years ago. It's an incredibly powerful compositing package, though its node-based archite

This is the best steelmanning I've seen of the Magic Mouse charging port design; I'm surprised I never encountered it before. It actually makes a lot of sense considering how stiff the cables typically are, and it also then makes

I went to a middle school in the 1990s that clearly came out of the same 1970s wave of “rethinking school design.” Ours had the benefit of the what-were-we-thinking retrofit walls being proper drywall, but, perhaps in trying to dodge the cl

Curious why this is currently flagged. It’s an in-depth look at what is almost certainly the most sophisticated and consequential physical supply-chain attack in history, and will be covered in security textbooks for years to come.

For a small site with relatively technical administration, Grav is unsurpassed. I've been using it for years for my portfolio and various side projects, and it is a joy to build with. For a larger site with multiple contributors, I&#x2

If the simulation hypothesis is real, perhaps it would follow that all the dark matter and dark energy in the universe is really just extra cycles being burned on layers of interpreters and JIT compilation of a loosely-typed scripting langu

Yeah, this should remove any doubt that there were explosives involved. At the 500 to 1000 mA hour capacity typically used in pagers, even tampering with the battery's venting in an attempt to build up gas pressure would at worst resul

0-60 in under 5 seconds is impressive, but I think the question on most of our minds is how fast it can hit 88.

If the Assassin's Creed franchise ever decides to do the Twentieth Century, 1910s Vienna certainly seems like a leading candidate for the setting.

It’ll never happen, but I’d vote for any politician campaigning on requiring, across the board, that H-1Bs be in the top 10% of industry comp for the role.

All this wonderful optimization, and yet there's still no UI to warn that (perhaps due to a websocket connection being lost?) a comment won't be saved. I lost two Notion comments this way yesterday!
