Man, I tabbed away from this and when I came back I got very briefly excited...
Reminds me of an older day where not every headline was about AI.
I don’t trust the accuracy of this prompt at all given the many examples of prior hallucinations. The typo in the first couple of lines doesn’t help either.

Still got my pin from WWDC18, lovely little thing.

Drag and drop to Desktop on macOS works too.

As a programmer, I've got a love for code but I have to accept that this is going to be the future for 90% of consumer-facing apps. The most common abstractions for the most common use-cases are already built and they're going to stay that way in my opinion. Once the "hard thinking" work is done building these abstractions, it's just a matter of connecting the dots to bring a product to market in <insert industry of choice>. While there's been no-code tools for a long time (Yahoo pipes being my earliest memory) there's no doubt they're improving every day.
I think in a few years (decades?), "developer" and "programmer" will mean something very different that they do today.

If this is really critical, it would not be unprecedented if we were to see another iOS 12.x.x release.
I won't be using Replit any more; I'd like to use this instead though. I'm not supporting OSS suppression of any kind, especially for something so basic, fundamental and useful.
I’d guess Search is pretty well segregated from basically everything else because of how valuable it is - I’m logged into Google on Search and it works fine (unlike everything else)
A more stable, frequently updated platform with decent hardware offerings and the fastest chips on the market does not amount to inferior phones.

that ensures the microphone is disabled whenever the lid is closed.
vs.
> On the 13-inch MacBook Pro and MacBook Air computers with the T2 chip, and on the 15-inch MacBook Pro portables from 2019 or later, this disconnect is implemented in hardware alone.
Do these statements not contradict each other for the 15" 2018 MacBook Pro, for example, which includes a T2 chip? This would also contradict earlier documentation provided on the T2 chip by Apple themselves [1].
From [1]:
> All Mac portables with the Apple T2 Security Chip feature a hardware disconnect that ensures that the microphone is disabled whenever the lid is closed. This disconnect is implemented in hardware alone, and therefore prevents any software, even with root or kernel privileges in macOS, and even the software on the T2 chip, from engaging the microphone when the lid is closed.

I'm currently on a post-university gap year and making a couple of iOS apps, having been doing so for the past few years.
The first app [1] is pretty niche but a technically interesting challenge nonetheless; it's a fast auto-checkout bot to be used on Supreme [2]. There's other apps just like it but they all seemed to cost upwards of $50, so mine's available for around $10.

I hope something like this comes soon. Until then, I'll keep my Turbo Boost disabled!
The main problem is really the heat/battery life—my laptop has a 6-core processor inside it with seriously inadequate cooling performance (with it being so thin). I guess the lifespan argument is technically be true but isn't the main reason I disable TB.
The 20% is worth it for me because the computer seems to be fast enough anyway.
There's likely a way to get root without having to read the password each time, this is just what I managed to hack together. If anyone has any ideas/suggestions I would be happy to fix this ASAP!

Looks like we're going back to the 00's
I assume the first script isn't the benchmarked program, but that it just generates it. The pure parsing of the second script would be the benchmark.
Having said that, the fact it takes 5 seconds is pretty arbitrary—we can't really say it's good or bad unless there is some basis for comparison.

Nope, you don't need Firefox to use the site anyway.
They really are getting desperate.
I think this essentially means the bezels are the same width the entire way round.
