Supposedly. The video ends with a message essentially saying "I'll post details later if/when I feel like it". Also: The posted video runs at 30 fps. There is no mention of 60 fps in the video metadata or in the video it

Makes me think of that first decade (98-08) when Google actually wasn't being evil. Yeah, it's inevitable that Apple will turn to this when they can't grow any more simply by raising the prices of their devices. Perhaps they

I can also picture it, but not really in the way you're outlining it. It's a sad and very inefficient picture though. Apple does not need this this much data processing. It's a grotesque amount per device. My most positive

300k Cassandra nodes seems a bit over the top even for a company with as many active devices as Apple. https://www.theverge.com/2022/1/28/22906071/apple-1-8-billio... 1.8B active devices / 300k node

Agreed. I'm annoyed by one thing: the font weights of the read email titles are a bit too heavy and black in the list of emails, making it unnecessarily hard to distinguish them from unread emails with a quick glance. The blue dot

There are many civilized people that are disgusted by those governments (such as e.g. India, China, North Korea and Iran) that are unwilling to even condemn Russia's brutal invasion of Ukraine.

Perhaps that's happening in the US, no idea. I would imagine that this would focus on media messaging in the US. From a European perspective, the online 'propaganda' has a very distinctively Ukranian, genuine and non-american

You're disgusted by volunteer financing of Ukraine's defense against the Russian invasion? That is either ignorant or evil, IMO. The $3500 supposedly formally paid for logistical supplies, not the shell (it should be cheaper than

It's absolutely top notch. Here's something that got a lot of attention in Sweden yesterday: A small housing co-op/tenant-owner's association (BRF Vinkelhaken 12 in Stockholm) decided to donate $3500 to a Ukranian defen

This is a key question that needs more daylight/exposure. I guess Pico is their first hedge, perhaps there will be more. Relying on Raspberry Pi as a business means relying on the goodwill of Broadcom - which is a severely broken compa

They were annoyingly supply constrained the first 2 years iirc. And the last 1.5 years or so. But for a long stretch in the middle there (like 2014-2021), not so much.

Scale is relative. I'm impressed by e.g. these Scandinavian apps: Postnord (!), Avanza, Hemnet, NRK TV, Instabox. There are perhaps 300-400 more of roughly equal quality in Scandinavia. For most of these: the maximum adressable audienc
