But why should writing be universally tailored to them, subjectivists?

Oh, and the irony

I’ve certainly seen companies think of safety that way but it’s myopic. The cost of lawsuits arising from an accident tends to me far more expensive, both in money and in reputation, than just having guardrails in the first place.

I've always thought that consumer complaints about Apple in HN only come from a loud and self-important minority, but wow the replies here represent such an infinitesimal market share

Huh? Why wouldn’t you want to maximize compatibility considering how expensive divorces can be, both financially and mentally?

Humans, no matter how unique and self-important they might be, can certainly be broken down into personality traits to come up with a model that projects the likelihood of a lasting marriage. It likely won’t be perfect or precise, but it can be done, so I’m not sure what your point even is. As people age, it’s just the fleeting expressions of themselves that whither away, but they have a core personality founded on their values and goals, which stand the test of time. That’s not the sort of thing that you can just mix with someone else who has a different set of values and goals.

Isn’t it the other way around, ie that you might be compatible with just anyone is more likely to be the idea of a naive 22-year old?

As you grow older you’re going to have your own values, boundaries, non-negotiables. Thinking that you can just jump into dating and “open-mind” the singles scene is a huge sign of someone who hasn’t fully developed their sense of self just yet.

Do we really need to obsess so hard on citations here? I mean what further proof does one need from the retail price of electronics lately

i personally wanted those to work (except Twitter, i believe social media is net net bad for society)... and yet i don't feel the need to jerk him off with my hands

Funny you say that without even knowing the school’s use case for the data. And most certainly in the abstract, companies have even less reason to collect PII than they are currently doing.

Eh, they have a higher probability of success entering the enterprise AI server space than any of those two since it’s not about creating new hardware. Granted, they made their own silicon, but that’s aligned with all of their vertical integration strategies.

To anyone who's seen the Apple Silicon launches, this was obvious the moment that ChatGPT went mainstream.

I've honestly been surprised at how Wall Street only ever paid attention to Nvidia. If Nvidia is worth what it's worth now because of AI demand, then Apple must be way undervalued.

If you're looking for a pay off for learning anything at all, just don't---AI is projected to take over a lot of knowledge areas. You'd better invest in learning a physical skill or build a network of high net worth people and somehow make something of it.

Now, if AI eating the world doesn't matter to you, then just learn what you want to learn.

Can somebody attest or falsify that we’d all be better off with a huge gaming monitor plus an Apple TV? Expensive, of course, but privacy is the main consideration here.

It’s not a matter of perspective to evolution, it’s a real binary between whether you can survive or not.

We’re free to pollute the planet as we like, but it’s up in the air whether we can survive nature’s response to our actions

Again, that’s just outright false. Whether theory-first works or not highly depends on whether a learner is experienced or not, and it tends to work better on those who have a long experience of learning about many disparate topics; while imitation-first tends to work best on younger and less experienced learners.

Re: not knowing how to play because author doesn’t get the why

Quite a lot of people learn by imitation without knowing the underlying theory. Some people need a theoretical framework so that they have a mental model with which to understand everything else.

Fundamentally, you’re arguing against learning theory. Not everyone learns the same way. If you have a problem with that, then you have a problem with a basic fact of life.

Oh, evolution certainly can. The bad ones always get killed off.

Honestly this level of snobbery is reserved for D/SLR cameras

That's a good macOS version name

Well that’s a fickle and non-homogeneous bunch. You place too much importance on your own opinion.

Man, people here are delusional. You think the purpose of a CEO, especially in a multi-trillion dollar company, is to be _the_ product guy?

Everyone here is like “Jobs would have done this would have done that”, but the truth is he never lived long enough to turn Apple into the profitable and, mind you, financially resilient giant that it is today. It’s all idolatrous speculation, meanwhile Tim Cook has actually put in the work.

Doing a bit of everything is what’s good? Why? Because that sounds like aimless distraction. If you had a goal in mind, doing a bit of everything isn’t even an option

You’re talking about trade schools with 3 units in financial accounting.

This “rethinking of education” you’re on about is already incredibly rigid from the start, and will not give young people the generalist skills to weather cycles of hype and economic downturns.

You can say that about any life experience, and those who do shouldn’t even be chiming in discussions

I’m surprised this hasn’t come up yet: Because by being a parent, you become responsible for someone else’s life besides your own, permanently and beyond the transactional or contractual sense of a job or a passion project. It is a life experience unmatched by anything else (though I think that being a teacher or the caretaker of children in an orphanage come close). You get free reign over the shaping of a person who will touch the lives of others, and the good or the bad that becomes of it is the consequence of your own values and way of existence.

Not disputing you either—I once said I will never have children, too—but indeed and as with other life decisions, you should stay childless while you find the meaning of it incomprehensible. It’s not for people who are not ready to stop thinking about themselves.

Consequentially there's no difference, you just debated the words

It’s not that simple but let’s see you lobby for the whole thing and get it done in a short time

There’s no difference between what you’re saying and what the guy before you is saying. Not sure why you’re drawing lines

> Getting more done seemed to get you promoted, at least where I worked

Anyone who has decades of experience won’t believe this. Promotion is very much a politics thing, the “merit” serving only documentation purposes. It’s not an indicator of your long-term performance after the promotion.

It’s good to point out that a single study can’t definitively draw causality but you should apply the same level of discernment to yourself.

Where’s the data supporting that that’s a good solution and prevents casualties in the first place

AI is overhyped regardless of whether Apple exists or not. They’re getting attention only because they didn’t jump on the bandwagon, and from a purely investment standpoint their fiscal discipline is honestly astounding.
