No not at all. It’s substantially larger and heavier.

I think my favorite still has to be the MacBook Air 11”. Wish they’d make that size again.

Why is this the favorite when the years older x230 takes up to 16GB ram ?

When people want moderation they cry at Zuck, when people get moderated they cry at Zuck. When people are given free and open systems they cry that it’s icky and weird.

Why? I'm under the impression that all VR products are shit. At least metas seem to be departing from the very boring gamer space.

Highest among all CPUs. This isn’t new for Apple. Their stuff frequently bests ryzens etc at single threaded perf

In this specific case it also takes some of the burden away from Feckless political campaigns that failed to effectively use the tools at their disposal. The public then doesn’t have as clear of a picture of who might actually be capable
Of winning next time.

I really feel the need media in their crusade against tech really did the public a disservice by not explaining what happened precisely.
It’s not about whether these companies are in the right or not, but more about how we as a society address the consequences of how their products operate.
When the media mischaracterizes this stuff it makes the public perception of what’s going on frankly Ridiculous and makes it easy for corporations to dismiss detractors as kooks.

Ahh, I see what you mean. When I read the original comment it seemed like a regular save and spend less approach. If some saving in index funds was obvious, I am sorry for my assumption.

And they work with adapters do they not? Do you really need hifi headphones at all times with your portable phone? Seems a little strange.

Is the headphone jack that much of a deal breaker? USB-c headphones seem pretty common now.

I said “saving and not over spending”; do folks on HN really have trouble with reading and comprehension?
I said nothing of investments and growth.

I used my words carefully when I said "retire by merely 'saving and not over spending'".
Your brother in law did not merely save and not over spend, he built a business and sold it for a large payout.

They can charge as much as they think people will pay for.
Fact is, having a better pocket computer (that is your only pocket computer I might add) is probably going to have a lot of value for people.

The answer to this question seems obvious. There are no 42 year olds that retire by merely "saving and not over spending" when even one child is involved.

Do you think it was made at Urbana because it uses the uiuc license? I suppose you think everything that uses the mit license originated in cambridge

Actually the arm64 backend is a grey area. I knew some guys that worked on it in secret at Apple. They definitely created and Developed it at Apple and dropped it on the community after the iPhone 5s launched, replacing the existing aarch64 backend.
I’m not 100% certain if they started with any bits of the previous aarch64 backend or not though.

Clang and the arm64 backend did literally originate at Apple. Not sure what you want me to tell you.

The majority of the advancements done to make the standards compliant browser with great js performance were done at Apple. Going by the copyright notice as the the source of a vast majority of the dev in the 2000s seems pretty special.
