I have no idea how apple can believe that the neo won't damage their brand reputation. They must have optimized something to make 8GB viable.

But giving the paper to Claude and having a dialogue about it was a very pleasant experience because I could ask questions to focus on the parts that seemed most interesting to me.

The goal of this project is to provide a platform that regular developers can write apps for and that regular users can understand and be productive on with minimum friction.

There is no loss of freedom here.

If I listen to a podcast I want to learn something, gain a new perspective, listen to a well-moderated conversation or at least laugh.

This podcast does none of those things. Literally doing nothing and letting my thoughts wander is more interesting than listening to this.

This is a common belief, but it's just not true. The book industry is healthier than ever.

This does not directly prove the theory your parent comment posits, being that better circumstances during a child's development improve the development of that child's brain. That would require success being a good predictor of brain development, which I'm somewhat uncertain about.

Of course, the defaults would have to be basically zero-management. But people would be able to choose how much control over their own data they want versus how convenient they want it to be. Right now, it's pretty much all or nothing.

Forking Nix would take an immense amount of effort, and the maintainers are already overworked. There would absolutely be a community split, which means that there would be even more work required than before to just maintain both of the forks and keeping them in sync. The nix language itself has no spec right now, meaning the behavior is defined by the singular existing implementation. Forking Nix itself will very likely introduce incompatibilities that are impossible to remedy. A lot of the power of nix comes from nixpkgs (where the entirety of NixOS is maintained as well), its build system hydra and the binary cache, the servers, CDNs and agents for which are sponsored by external companies (we're talking 0€ cost for something that would normally cost 10s of thousands every year). Forking would lose all of that, it's pretty much impossible financially.

What about this situation made you think it warrants saying that? What is your definition of a terrorist? I thought a terrorist was a person that spread terror by acts of violence. Which is not what's happening here.

TL:DR; This works with basically all Linux Distros, but only because of a hack/software called isohybrid.

However, the new tests could not be run in parallel with the existing ones, as the changes in global state in the database caused flaky failures. I know there will be other tests like them in the future, so I want a robust way of writing these kinds of "global" tests without too much manual labor.

Spinning up a new postgres instance for each of these specific tests would be one solution.

I would like to instead go for running the tests inside of transactions, but that comes with its own sorts of issues.

This brand was specifically called out by the main article for being overpriced junk by a company currently in a lawsuit regarding false advertising.
