Thanks for the response. I'd say you are a key target audience for the iPad Pro. I see most of your points. The only point I can't grok is "the CPU is too good", but I suppose that is more about lamenting the lack of Mac

It’s not on Apple. They explicitly warn developers not to do this because stuff exactly like this can happen. If it were an issue involving public APIs, then yes, it would be on Apple. I get it. I’ve used private APIs in some of my Apple

I can confirm. My YouTube algorithmic feed is full of AI slop on a whole range of topics, including fake news items, which is particularly concerning because it's often pretty convincing. As a point of reference: I usually watch high q

I'd rather that than an underpowered chip. It was mentioned, as almost a side comment somewhere, that the M chip is in there for multitasking and higher end image/video editing for "Pros". I could certainly use the M4 in

To answer your question, no I don't use mindmaps with coding. Your extension looks neat though! One issue: The "video" demo[1] is rendered too small and very blurry on my Mac. 1. https://codemindmap.com/CodeMi

Questions for you: 1. If you don't know what to do with it, why did you buy it? 2. If you wanted a general purpose computer, why did you buy an iPad? 3. Which iPadOS limitations are particularly painful for you?

And the GPU is up by about ~30%! This falls in line with the recent jumps in the A chips as well.

It might be, but Arch is pretty solid and my favorite. Regardless, both distributions have a place in the world and I'm not too concerned with the best , that's too subjective. Why are Overlays better than AUR?

Yes. I think it's due to many factors around stimulus causing rapid context switches in the brain. This could be from: - Social media - Short-form content - Life in general seems to be accelerating, especially at work. I don't thi

I don't know because I have 36GB memory on Apple Silicon and mostly use models that require around 32GB, but I will say that people underestimate the abilities of ~7b models for many tasks.

The worst thing we could do is punish the Iranian people and remove their access to tools that help their freedom and dignity. Their government, quite literally, does not represent them, their views, nor their interests. If you want to fix

If this topic interests you, it's worth it to read about the rise and fall of 3dfx. Their GPUs were incredible when they came to the market and in many ways, were the genesis of the modern GPU in terms of 3D hardware acceleration. htt

I feel like this release is a work-in-progress waypoint to another paradigm for the Mac, and this is Apple's way of steering (stalling?) users and developers without giving too much away.

We have a bunch that are USB-A to micro-USB to the charger? If you want to use the newer chargers, I’d think you’d want cooling and airflow. At some point, I want to build a MagSafe stand with a low RPM silent fan on it.
