interesting name. The opposite of a bonus. So what is, the fact that your fork looses the thousands of eyes (meat and ai) that spot and fix bugs and security leaks?

my hunch is the path forward for intel on both the CPU and the GPU end is to release a series of consumer chipsets with a large number of PCIE 5.0 lanes, and keep iterating this. This would cannibalize some of the datacenter server side revenue, both that's a reboot... get the hackers raving about intel value for the money instead of EPYC. Or do a skunkworks ARM64 M1 like processor; there's a market for this as a datacenter part...

Shameless plug: check out [Rosettable https://github.com/francoisp/rosettable]. Brings Postgres triggers and notifies to your MySQL schema, with it you can organize a smooth transition. Using MySQL_fdw you can use your current MySQL schema with the above you can know when a client interacted directly with MySQL; all the while you add some nice jsonb and Plpgsql and transition out of MySQL incrementally. Don’t rewrite, write onward

I read that Monterrey will Have an AirPlay based feature to do something like TDM. www.macrumors.com/2021/06/09/airplay-mac-to-mac-external-display/amp/

It’s probably a bad forum for this opinion, but I have a relative struggling with addiction and resulting mental issues ( resulting form substance abuse; he was highly functional and threw it all away), and because of this I made a 180 and think some form of prohibition for hard stuff is the only action that would help us. How to put that cat in the bag is anyone’s guess.

That is not necessarily true, check out the max C rate in of LFP. Still, LFP is the way to go for sure; longer overall life is a clear net positive, lower degradation and secondary market uses once the véhicule is junk without expensive and heavy recycling. I bet the cyber and truck were waiting on these patents to lapse.

IMHO, ditching Intel is a smart move for apple but a bad one for hackers. I’m sticking with older intel mbps until decent emulation scores are achieved with qemu, and probably further down the line. Hypervisors (say VBox proxmox combo) are so useful when you have to experiment/test with other platforms. Happy to see HDMI and escape key back tho, and it looks like we’ll even get a Target Display Mode equivalent! We’ll be back to my 2015 setup.:-)

My ideal M1 mbp would be this new one with 64gb ram but with a second cheap mid tier i5 with 16gb dedicated, and a rtx2070(cmon NVdia has Cuda —we need that) with 8gb, connected via internal tb3. I don’t care that it would be 700g heavier and a bit bigger or have less battery life when used to the max (idled chips should not eat a lot). It terms of bare costs thats maybe 1000$ more silicon, but it’s a world more of possibilities. What’s wrong with dedicated gpu offering— not for everyone but hackers love it and help the aura.

And —-please—- bring back a modular slot (m2?) for (additional?) storage! (Also good for hackers but not for Apple)

Joplin is pretty cool, back filling that to git must not be super complicated…

Carbon(Co2) credits to offset the cost/impact of your dog/pet, so you can have an eco responsable pet. Sell nft based tokens of these credits that can be pressed into a unique collar to show your mindfulness. Anybody ?
