> I don't know a single developer who actually uses it anymore

Its endemic in enterprise engineering/QA, for all the reasons we mourn its loss its big, and big is trusted in these circles

I have an LG OLED. It's gorgeous, but

- It's MAC address is blocked from the network

- It's never had WIFI credentials

- It's ONLY ever used with an Apple TV or PlayStation

The mundanity of the last paragraph made me smile. That desire to just go back to normal -walking, debugging, comfort- after moments like that is incredibly under-rated.

With a 5G radio, this is so much more appealing than the Duo

> you're probably not the likely target for the offer

but if I was that employable, and offered that severance, I'd not give it one second's thought

and that's the problem, these severance packages are more often taken by the best people in the company

And none of this changes that

You have a CHOICE now

Huge decision, maybe toughest Apple's seen yet.

Can't have great "sleep quality" if you can't get to sleep, and cannabis is (personally) unmatched for it

... and then comes the movie, and it's canon weight is going to blow it all up

We're told from kids that Australian Magpies will remember your face for years. Not sure if it's something we just pass it down

I bet it'll use the CarPlay model, you have YouTube on your iPhone, it'll appear on the HomeView

Otherwise, my Google Nest is going nowhere

The "No apps" argument is premature

Pedantically, CarPlay doesn't have "apps" either, you have iOS apps that have CarPlay interfaces, I'd expect that this has the same product lines, ie YouTube will have a HomeView version.

Almost my exact response.

And the cruel tragedy is that it becomes this self-reinforcing cycle.

Sleep bad > "Bad" ADHD day > Harder to fall asleep. Rinse. Repeat.

What's your definition of "hacker"

In the Hacker News sense, its those of us who use tools to "hack" together solutions, not in the "hack" systems to gain entry

Absolutley does

Saying "Medicare Portal" buries the lede a little here.

Medicare is part of "Services Australia", the larger social services government agency that looks after unemployment, support payments and public health. We access all of that through the one portal

Accessing "non-public" data through that is endictment on their infra security more than it is OpenAI

It is, they never changed their retail strategy (1-2 showcase stores per state + rebel & JD) here

Eat Up Martha

An icon, one of the best of us and a true one of one

Medicare is the first scare campaign bought up in any Australian election

It's crazy that universal health is the political third rail in most modern countries but for the opposite reasons

In most of the world it's the policy that cannot be touched, just in Europe, Canada and Australia its _existance_ is invoilable, in the US the _introduction_ seems to be the unwinnable war

> minimize the wandering of your mind

To paraphrase the wonderful Thich Nhat Hanh, include that in your meditation. None of us, even the most skilled mediators can get to the kind of clarity and simplicity that people expect from meditation.

It's not about emptying your mind, that's impossible, it's about learning to be fully present in the moment. Anchor in your breath, in your senses, in the right now and think "Breathing in, I know my mind is wandering"

I like to imagine it as a clear afternoon day. Some thoughts, some clouds will appear, but my presence is the sky behind them.

Exactly, Nolan's use of CGI is perfect. Elegant and purposeful, and incredibly well executed.

WE. JUST. WANT. GOOD. STORIES. WELL. TOLD.

First Om, now Dvorak.

Such a loss, the prototypical cranky geek. Loved his takes with Curry and Leporte

The "640k should be enough for anyone" quote (even if Gates didn't exactly say it) is making the point is that _right now_ we have no idea about what our future needs and capabilities will be, we can't imagine what "should be enough" will be

640k was enough ... in 1981 ... almost fifty years later is 50,000 lower than a standard off the shelf PC now

There were hippo bones found under Trafalgar Square, and once-upon-a-time (10kya) elephants, lions, and rhinos were once endedmic to Britain
