NewLogic··on AMD Launches Ryzen 5000 Mobile: Zen 3 and Cezanne for Notebooks
Paper launches everywhere, as far as the eye can see.
NewLogic··on Why can't I write code inside my browser?
I feel this deeply. Building binaries in a docker container to deploy as a Lambda Layer? Aces. Anything more complex than basic math functions across a few cells? Burn it with fire.
NewLogic··on USA vs. Julian Assange Judgment
As an Aussie, sadly our politicians are a bunch of cowards.
NewLogic··on An internal team 'hoodwinked' Bill Gates into launching the Xbox project
Agreed, they have even begun making good hardware outside of gaming. The surface range is hugely popular in the corporate scene.
NewLogic··on Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
The XPS 15 is basically that laptop and is only hamstrung by dell being slow to move to Ryzen 4000 mobile chips. Mobile intel runs hot and slow.
NewLogic··on Ask HN: What are you surprised isn’t being worked on more?
What makes you certain any theoretical GUI markup standard would improve on the industry standard of Electron and Chromium wrapped web components? Just need to look at the utility and performance of vscode to see what is currently possible.
NewLogic··on Toyota plans to be the first company to sell an EV with a solid-state battery
Not true, there is a heap of hardrock in Australia waiting for the market to come off cylindrical low pricing.
NewLogic··on SLS vs. Starship
Personally, It smacked me in the face as obviously going to eat the rocket industry's lunch in 2013 with Falcon 9 v1.1. Cost optimised boosters while testing landing tech on paying commercial flights was a no brainer.
NewLogic··on The Italian Covid contact-tracing app is now developed in open source
The app isn't obfuscated an was quite quickly decompiled.
NewLogic··on India orders coronavirus tracing app for all workers
The argument of "If you can do a better job, why haven't you already?" is an extremely lazy gotcha on all levels. As for the rest of my comment, it is merely commenting on recorded shifts in social democracies with 911 being a highlighted turning point aided by the rise of the digital economy.

Something, something, Patriot Act

> why don't you go into govt jobs making these apps/policies and do what you believe is correct/perfect.

What is this, the youtube comment section? Nah, terrible take. These systems are being pushed through multiple democracies by governments trading on fear and the false promises of safety.

NewLogic··on Dissection of COVIDSafe (Android): Australian government's contact tracing app
To put it in words they will understand "Nothing to hide, nothing to fear"
NewLogic··on Dissection of COVIDSafe (Android): Australian government's contact tracing app
This is more a stand on principles against governments rather than if the app is actually malicious in nature. People are rightly making a stand that a project of this nature should require at the bare minimum for source code to release concurrently with protection laws. Blame successive governments if individuals aren't overly welcoming to putting their blind faith in promises of a government that has let them down in the past.

The concerns are still very much valid no matter region or GovCloud. What protects Australian citizens from powers granted to the US intelligence machine via the Patriot Act?
NewLogic··on London's rental market: where $2k a month gets you a bed beside the toilet
Make sure you come check out South East Queensland!
NewLogic··on Docker for Windows won't run if Razer Synapse driver management tool is running
Docker for Windows has had a fundamental Dns[1] bug since April of last year, I've been forced to run v2.0.0.3 for months now to ensure yum repos resolve inside AmazonLinux containers. Truly a second class platform. [1]: https://github.com/docker/for-win/issues/3810
NewLogic··on Lessons learned from writing ShellCheck
Really, really expensive lawyers I would guess. I look to Apple's behaviour towards the Right to Repair movement for proof of past behaviour/culture as an organisation.
NewLogic··on Angular 9.0
The answer in this case is to use Vue or Svelte. Super light weight and avoids the pitfalls of re-inventing the wheel.
NewLogic··on AWS Introducing Provisioned Concurrency for Lambda Functions
I'm still frustrated that Lambda can't have alias specific environmental variables. Aren't alias' supposed to be used for staging function versions through a release pipeline?
NewLogic··on Uber CEO on Khashoggi killing “We've made mistakes too,right, with self-driving”
I'm strongly in the camp of, cutting up a journalist into pieces with a bone saw isn't a "mistake".
