If you can't tell people you want to concentrate on your work, there's either something very wrong with where you work, or you.

Oops, there was, sorry. And now I can't correct it.

The right side (how to use the maths, what maths to do, etc.) should have said it should be done by people.

> But sure, ASCII files in English with US date formats

LoL, I love the irony of going with US date formats as the one of the obvious defaults to that variable.

The reason this doesn't work for the OS is that applications invariably ask the user to set settings to "expert" and toggle this and that in order to take full advantage of features.

So I still think the solution is something like iOS or Android. I can not think of anything a non-CS person needs to do that can't be done on those platforms.

The desperately needed TL;DR is that perhaps the actual mathematics itself (i.e. proofs, calculations, etc.) can be done by AI, but why we do it and deciding which problems to solve can only be done by AI. Therefore mathematician do maths.

I'm not a mathematician, but this seems like a weak and slightly bizarre argument.

IBM and to a larger extent Microsoft's business tactics in the 80s and 90s were not a failure of Amiga, Linux, or Apple (technology and capability-wise).

The fact that porn was allowed on VHS wasn't a failure of the Betamax technology.

Preventing key-jamming on typewriters is not a failure of Dvorak.

The technology does not matter, the real world decides. Right now, there is no reason for people to care about IPv6, other than when it's the cause of issues.

I have to have my machine further crippled in order protect people who don't know what they're doing on a computer.

I don't think there's anything wrong with people not knowing how to use a computer properly. In fact, I wouldn't expect a normal person to, why should they? So what I would love to see is normies be given iPads, and my computer left the hell alone.

It's like if we over-simplified all the controls in a cockpit because someone who likes playing flying games finds it too difficult to fly a real plane.

> Granting terminal full disk access grants arbitrary scripts full disk access

No, it grants scripts I run full disk access. Unvetted scripts do not run in my terminal, so there are no secret sub-processes either.

Not sure on whether the pros outweigh the cons for what it was originally intended for, or if older diabetes medication is better. One thing that I am sure of though is that _diet and exercise do not have shortcuts_.

This, for a start:

I won't defend submodules, but I also don't accept this as a response because it's irrelevant. They are used and it will be an unbearable pain when they break.

Until it isn't.

Things like this have a tendency to to be revised as time passes.

Every time you use the word "should" you're fighting reality.

This is exactly how I feel. It's like "Haha, what are you going to do? Go to Windows?". Linux would be an option if the software options were there.

Reports like this make it sound like there aren't serious flaws and bugs in MacOS. The things he's listing are trivialities.

I started writing a list of UX and software bugs in Mac OS, but honestly, I don't have the energy or time, there are so many. Mac OS has become an absolute travesty of an OS.

Once they factor in my current budget for buying a car which is up to £2,000, insurance around £70pm, (relatively) inexpensive repairs and ease of finding spare parts/mechanics, we can talk.

All this kind of spin does is turn people who were on the fence, off electric. Just treat people like adults and say "whilst there are still lots of reasons to prefer a traditional car, electrics are the future, and here's something that shows the progress".

I've never understood why people even _generate_ from the docs folder. If you've written it in markdown (which they nearly always do) then it's already rendered properly in Github. Or is it because they then publish those docs somewhere else?

It's like HN has been taken over by Redditors. Nobody's interested in facts, just righteous indignation.

They mailed me too, and I did read it in full. There's a link right there in the e-mail. I read it, and understood it's not at all what everyone here is claiming.

No it doesn't.

The changes are intended to cover the ads that are in pre-existing non-removable content. Nothing is changing, they're just making it clear that this is happening (or perhaps more unclear, judging by the response here).

Why do you say it's written by AI?

Do constitutional rights apply to non-citizens? I always thought the constitution of the USA was for USA citizens, but then I'm not from the USA and am watching all this from very far away.

The bootloader is unlockable.

I don't watch Apple's events, ads, or any other marketing. When the actual devices or "inventions" are released a few days later, it's very obvious who watched the marketing material.

At best, this guy is brainwashed, but more likely he's just complicit in the ~lies~ marketing.

They haven't been sold for three years so they suddenly don't exist? Really?

Both are true. At a certain point, choosing to do the bear minimum when you know it's going to hurt users _is_ malice.

I heard the novel term "Golf Driven Development" the other day. Essentially it's where software/services aren't sold because people wanted or asked for them, they're sold because one CEO played golf with another CEO (with the express purpose of making this happen).

Salesforce, Microsoft, Atlassian, and co. are obviously sold on their merits.

Would have loved to have tried this, but it still bizarrely lacks Apple Intel support.

No, IPv6

I and others I know would. Granted we're not the vast majority, but my feeling is that people don't do it nowadays because they've been trained not to. If bands went back to their own sites, I'd say people would follow.
