A suggestion to the author -- don't outsource your writing to AI, or, if you do, go over it with a fine-tooth comb and remove every trace of Claudisms from it.
I read the subtitle: "What it takes to boot the same microVMs on Apple's hypervisor, and the one capability Apple will not let you have." and immediately navigated away.

Oh boy: the AI-isms on this article are so annoying.

Anyone have any thoughts on Craft[1] and how it compares to Obsidian as a note-taking tool?
My primary work machine is a Mac (I also have an iPad and iPhone). I'm looking primarily for a note-taking app with support for images. I don't necessarily need the more "glamourous" publishing type features that craft has.
Things I like about the app:
* (Generally) good keyboard support
* Syncing (but I'm paying for it)
* Good native apps on mobile
Things that aren't so good
* Editing code blocks

* Is the ACM Professional Membership sufficient to benefit from the Pluralsight[1] (and Skillsoft[2]) courses? Or is the All-Access membership required?
* Do people feel the ACM All-Access Membership (Professional + unlimited access to ACM digital library) is worth the additional $75?

Key takeaways:
* Shopify cutting ~1000 workers: most of the layoffs will occur in recruiting, support and sales units
* First big layoffs the company has announced since Mr. Lütke started the company in 2006.
* Shopify’s shares fall 15% to about $31
* Tobi Lütke: "It’s now clear that bet (that surging e-commerce sales growth would last past the Covid-19 pandemic’s ebb) didn’t pay off... I got this wrong"
* Laid off workers to be offered 16 weeks of severance to the laid-off workers, plus one week for every year of service

Hey @JackWritesCode. We're eagerly waiting for the 1-year review you promised us when you uttered the legally binding words: "Sure :)" last year[0]

Because workers have more time to upskill in a recession, companies that offer services in this area (e.g. SIS systems, etc.) might also do well. From what I can recall, one of my former employers (https://moderncampus.com) has traditionally done well during an economic downturn.

I do try to submit the logs when I can. tbh, it takes a combination of (In/Out) text filters along with some navigation to trigger the failures. If I re-encounter, I will try to spend some time to reproduce.
You can find the last failure I submitted here[0].
