Yeah I'm on an iMac Pro (which is the same display as the 27" iMacs) as my main display at its pretty glorious with 218 PPI. My older 34" ultra wide next to it is really showing its age, both in terms of overall quality and 1

Now if only someone made a 34” ultra wide with 120Hz+. In particular one with 5120 x 2160 resolution. Maybe in 2022 at the rate high hertz monitors are coming for non-gaming uses...

I'm sure all this complexity makes sense for all sorts of reasons buried in the history of Kubernetes development at Google. "Things are the way they are because they got that way." The fact that so many other orgs, many of w

Exactly this. A lot of the conversation here is missing a key point of these hosting debates: context is _everything_.

As opposed to your neighbors just hold your packages at their place, and you grab them when you get back home? Heck in pre-covid times, that would give you a nice little opportunity to say hi and have a chat with a neighbor. The failure mod

It isn't, at least not in any way most developers use it. You cannot use docker to start a *nix container on a mac, whether its for a arm or x86 OS. some context: https://www.reddit.com/r/docker/comments/

Yeah its pretty crazy how advanced its sound calibration is. It uses its microphones (six of them) to measure the response of the sound in the room according to where its placed, and adjusts itself on the fly so that it sounds as good as it

What do you mean by "no delay" ? If you mean the delay between asking Siri to 'play music' and music to start, that is annoying and should be fixed by Apple engineers at some point. Siri is just way too slow on the Homep

Yeah I'd imagine its entirely because they wanted to keep the form factor the same as the old Macs, and changing the camera will require a full redesign.

I had my Ruby on Rails / node dev env setup within a couple hours - the only weird thing was Redis (via Rosetta) had to run as root for some reason.

My Air hasn’t gotten warm yet and I’ve been trying to really hammer it while I’ve been setting up my dev env and running benchmarks. I have not tried Civ 6 late game benchmarks yet tho ;)

Install Parallels or VMware (once they have their universal builds ready), install your favorite Linux distro’s ARM build, and you are off to the races.

Yeah so far the performance is very close to my 10 core iMac Pro I use for day to day development. This is on a MacBook Air with no fan, and so far I haven't felt the machine even get warm even when compiling _and_ also running tests o

I think there is a huge difference in these two things: * I can’t work because a 3rd party we use for code hosting / dep management is down * I can’t work because my laptop literally can’t run any programs due to a poor security progr

If you compare how Siri works compared to comparable services, or Apple Maps, this just isn’t true.

The last time I attempted was 2017/18. Pretty plain clone PC desktop - MSI motherboard, ryzen 1600, AMD Radeon 580, etc. I bought a couple a different WiFi dongles to make sure the chipset was supported. Yet the problems remained. Mayb

I have. Many times. Every time I end up debugging suspend/resume, graphic drivers, multiple monitor, etc. I spend enough time changing config files for my job, I’m not spending my own time doing it just to get basic functionality worki

It can be both things. Use signal if you are sending messages that are security sensitive, or if you want to prefer secure messaging by default. But of course vote and talk to elected officials and agitate for policy changes as well.

The tech corporate response may be one of the best avenues to actually apply any leverage against apple with this current situation. I've already heard of friends at big-tech companies where network admins are applying corporate wide V

I think "Too much software" comes from product and engineers not being willing to say 'no' to feature requests and product bloat, rather than any sort of strictly technical thing. If your product or tool lacks a clear fo

Still works for me. If it can’t find a match it will just upload your mp3s to apples servers and then I presume they can stream to a HomePod. I mostly use Roon or my phone to control my music, so I haven’t really tested the match stuff in a

I love Ruby. I've been working with it as my primary language for 15+ years. Its sad to see how they keep adding new, arcane syntax for fairly obscure use cases, seemingly without any real clear justification. I wish Matz would raise t

When you have heads of state making insane executive proclamations via your platform, and you know that your weak sauce security is compromised — yes, it’s way too long.

Yes, of course. Take the site down if you don't have a read only mode or something. You are losing millions in trust every minute this hack goes on.

WTF. I'm baffled. How have they not either * thrown the site in read only mode OR * taken the entire site down Until they can fix the security vulnerabilities. That would be better than what is happening now.

Guard [1] is a great tool in the ruby world for rerunning tests, reloading your browser, or running any arbitrary task based on files changing inside your file system. Its built on top of Listen [2] to do the fs piece, which has pretty well

The UI performance feels snappy to me, and opening up threads or going to commonly used pages feels about as fast as Gmail. From watching the performance w/ network tab open things happen in around 300 - 500 ms, which is inline w/
