_____kon All of Microsoft's MacBook Air-beating benchmarks

"I wasn’t able to run the benchmarks myself, but the results should serve as an important data point as we get closer to the launch of these Copilot Plus PCs on June 18th. It’s also important to note that, unlike Apple’s MacBook Air, Microsoft’s new Surface Laptop isn’t fan-less, allowing it to squeeze more performance out. Microsoft only compared its Surface Laptop to the MacBook Air M3 — not a MacBook Pro that comes equipped with fans." It looks like there are not quite there yet.

_____kon No new iPhone? No secure iOS: Looking at an unfixed iOS vulnerability

Well android patching after 3 years is pretty new thing compared to Apple policy. Apple was and is keeping security updates for very long time with major updates on top of that for iOS. Not knowing someone does not mean they will not be hacked or already has not been by downloading some app from the store.

_____kon Ask HN: How do I get fit and healthy as a software engineer?

I have the same/similar patterns in my life. What I do is: I use kettlebells as my main and mostly only exercise tool. I occasionally run and cycle to work although last two are least options in my routine. Kettlebell is like 99% what I use. They are a great tool to build up stamina and strength with muscles[0]. I recommend to check Pavel Tsatsuline[1] “Enter the Kettlebell”[2]. Regarding the diet/eating I do daily fasting[4] and can recommend this for sure although it expects some planning with nutrition in your meals. Now regarding food if you wanna eat healthy stop buying/eating processed foods or reduce as much as possible, reduce sugar consumption overall especially artificial one, try to make your meals from raw foods as often as you can, I for example make meals for whole week over the weekend, it saves a lot of time.
