You’re holding it wrong..this is for connecting a classic Mac to a Raspberry Pi.

That is totally wrong. Young slackers without economic standing, waring parents that have no clue who has actual custody and guidance from only small minded individuals hiding from reality as “teachers” can, and frequently do, achieve great

You’re holding it wrong. Seek tech partnerships with others lacking such time constraints and optimize shared responsibilities with existing partners. YOLO Time waits for no man.

It's probable that inexperienced workers (of all ages) will come across this and deploy it to unsuspecting small businesses because both want to ride the Python Way. I think in the future Microsoft's LinkedIN will verify everyone

IP fees give investors a return on investment that, in turn, encourages more investment in IP and thereby advances the state of the art. If you have a problem with that, take it up with the US Patent Office and nobody else.

What part of their Developer Agreement where it says NOT to go running to the press, did you fail to understand? Regardless of the original issue, what are your long term prospects as a going concern in their store after doing just that? St

As one caught in all of these generations, I'd have to frame it as: John Lennon being inspired by Yoko-like squealing noises in a theatrical B52 song is about as relevant as David Bowie being inspired by Arcade Fire. I mean, for sure t

In the sense that DEC's initial commercial offerings were "vendor unauthorized" boards for IBM mainframes and DEC hired a good many IBM employees. IBM eventually went after them for it. From my perspective, Ken and his Pinto

Not sure what dates the history books say (never had time to read them because, you know, living it), but Pentium Pro was known to exist well before 1995. Even Intel had been pushing their two other processor lines, the i860 and the iAPX 43

ARM cores today descended from StrongARM, which was a joint venture between DEC and ARM. What I said was that DEC's Alpha project was a response to SPARC to save the VAX market. The StrongARM project was unrelated.

Intel settled the lawsuit (over DEC's Alpha tech winding up in PentiumPro) by agreeing to purchase DEC's Hudson division (that produced Alpha and StrongARM chips).

The TL;DR is that the VAX was the first and most powerful line of 32-bit computer systems ever developed, the culmination of 20 long years of work by the world's best team of computer scientists (at DEC) competing day and night against

I think it's important to remember our cousins at Data General and their Nova and Eclipse series too. DEC and DG had the best groups of computer scientists the world has ever seen in one place and I don't think PDP11 or VAX11 woul

Yep, I’m on DECUS tapes from ‘82…spoke in front of darkness filled with 6,000 people reacting to every one of my jokes many years before I could shave (and also before I worked for DEC). In the old days, pear shaped bearded gurus ruled —fro

I’ve been in software for more than 40 years (STILL can’t qualify for the senior menu at IHOP) and I’m sure you can imagine how I feel. We had “public domain” back in the day (I contributed to it..exchanged on mag tapes at conventions, late

How do we downvote for posting a "9to5mac" article? What's next, AppleInsideher and MacTumors? Some people go to school and learn things so they can tell the science from the click-selling hype of entitled enthusiasts.

This project is obviously a farce, but I would not say Apple is against Linux insofar as supporting it on the backend. Their own backends are designed for raytracing/render farms and will probably always run macOS though.

Yeah, because PHP8, NodeJS (abandoned by its creator), Ruby (DHH is off battling Apple these days) are all there is! Back in the day we used to call wars over languages and architectures “rWars” We knew better than to build an upvote/d

The future and end of PHP was HipHop, but I literally have an uncle who is 89 and still programs in COBOL, so whatever. From my perspective, PHP isn't even a good running joke like PERL (or the earlier one...TECO http://www
