It’s like being outraged and asking “Trek and Cannondale exist, why do we need fifty other bike makers?” When some new manufacturers pop up.

I don’t get the negativity.

How often you drive 200mph??

This happens too often for it to just not be on purpose.

Nope.

I get it, it's Apple and it's great and all that.

I'm just not going to wear that on my face.

I'm not.

Shareholders.

We did a several thousand mile road trip a couple years ago. We planned it out using various online tools and pen and paper. Will have to look into doing something like this the next time.

The kiddos got to see a LOT of really cool things. They had a blast.

>More code != better.

>more concise ways to render the logic

This isn't better either.

Edit before the shitstorm:

This isn't necessarily better either.

> I feel like our country is extremely unprepared for what climate change is going to mean for everyone in a decade or two.

The general populace is definitely unprepared. Those with means know what is coming and they're "getting mine while the getting is good" before it all goes to shit. Which, of course, means making things worse.

> Most watch users don’t know how to change the strap and I bet pre-Apple Watch, many didn’t realize that was an option

Hmmm... what's this little springy thing on my Garmin watch? Oh! check that out! I can replace the bands!

Apple makes cool stuff, I even have some of it, but stop suckin' their butts.

> Reddit has one credible third-party client: Apollo.

Ooof. I mean, if you're only an iOS user, maybe?

That's because the first rule of Usenet is you don't talk about Usenet.

> I parsed more closely about what the ask here is, and its that Amazon is asking via separate motions for the same information given to the AG case which, due to how discovery works, they should already have, this to me reads as an attempt to press Molson legally and thus spend time and money on complying with these requests.

Can't his lawyer go to the judge and have this stopped?

Given a domain, code generally changes similarly. For example: You have an app that interfaces with a scale to weigh widgets. At first you support one scale and so you just write code to solve the problem of reading the weight and sending it to the weight processor. After some time, there is a new scale. You now add some abstraction so that they both report a generalized weight message to the weight processor. When you later have to add a third, because you have that generalization, you can tell a new Junior dev "just follow what the code is already doing" and they should have no problem doing just that and add support for the third scale.

That is enough abstraction.

> And they’re dead set on doubling down on their homegrown software and freezing out CarPlay. Shaking my damn head.

This is going to go badly for them. A lot of people (all iOS users) will not even look at a GM. The used market for them will suffer as well. But, hey, if you need a really cheap used car in 5 or so years, and you don't care about Carplay, GM has you covered!

It's still a huge red flag against the company that one team can be toxic and another great.

A lot of this has to do with keeping Microsoft happy, probably.

Once MS skips to ARM, let's see what Intel does.

> matters most

This is like the least significant thing they could work together on. There are SO many more issues they could tackle together but won't.

I don't think you can put an age range on this. As an example: Look at all the QAnon believers. They're pretty much all ages. Look how many of those people went to Dallas for Kennedy's return.

I never pay attention to the overall cook times. I read through the recipe and picture myself doing the steps to get a feel for how long it will really take.

This. I think HN leans very heavy on webdev and somehow forgets that the entire rest of the planet runs on software also.

I implement protocols to communicate with various hardware (RFID, LiDAR, etc). Most of these communicate over sockets. Some still use serial. I have a library I wrote of socket routines that I use, so it's not like I re-implement that every time, though. And for this, I'd really rather use my library than a 3rd party in case I have to dig in and see what's going on.

Having been born in '71, my folks, who loved horror and sci-fi, dragged me along to a lot of these. There was an old drive-in in town that would show this stuff so, we'd pull in, get popcorn and I'd usually fall asleep part way in, but I still remember scenes from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Incredible Melting Man, etc. Funny, though, many of those movies I never watched again when I was older.

"On two occasions I have been asked, 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question."

If there's a fix, then it's not really a brick.

Slowly, chewing my food completely.

> ... nothing productive to spend it on.

Employees. Spend it on them. Fully pay benefits (actually no, we need to decouple HC from employment, but that's another rant), pensions, raises. etc.

This is cool. I am still rocking an Mx Master. Good to know that when the battery degrades I can just replace that.

Neat trick, buy I really don't see this as something I'd use unless I'm in a pinch. Phones (pretty much every phone) will heat up too much in this scenario.

Or instead of this law, we make stock buybacks illegal again. Then, companies flush with profit, have to take better care of the employees they bring on.

Is it digitally watermarked so that I know I'm listening to an AI version of someone's voice?

If not, why did Apple think I would not want to know that bit of information.
