ok clearly I'm a robot because I can't figure out wtf to do

HN needs an "AI" tab, and the ability to flag things as AI

Some of it very interesting, but maybe it shouldn't be on the home page unless it's a certain critical mass (similar to show HN)?


I saw a post on a subreddit earlier where someone was considering getting rid of their 2019 Macbook Pro with an i9 and 32GB of ram, and so many of the comments were egging the poster on and saying it was an upgrade.

Terrible idea. It's cool that Apple are entering the budget space, but the hype around the Neo is nuts.

edit: found it https://old.reddit.com/r/macbookpro/comments/1s2tdrm/is_the_...


That specific Macbook Pro model is famously bad to the extent that people have tried to suggest Apple made that generation intentionally bad to make the m1 look more revolutionary. The Neo's still not going to be better performance when plugged in, but it's a more reasonable comparison than the stats suggests.

Was that the old or new keyboard? If it was the old one, I'd take the downgrade of everything else, to get a keyboard that doesn't jam up if you accidentally breathe on it.

It is the butterlfy I think but they had pretty much fixed it by that point, and OP wasn't complaining about the keyboard

Your issue might not be just the rogue employee leaking certificates, it sounds like you were sharing one Apple Developer account between multiple developers which is also against their T's & C's

Really every developer should have their own account and work on their own machine

If you were all using the one account on the same machine, then Apple has no way of telling who did what


> it sounds like you were sharing one Apple Developer account between multiple developers which is also against their T's & C's

Whether the case or not here (I don't know), taking a look at the big picture: Imagine if in the 90s Apple could come in to a software company and dictate what development practices and account management they must do to ship software for a Mac! Would've been instant outrage. Anyone was free to write and ship software however they liked. How low we have fallen to allow near-monopolies to dictate terms.


What did the employee do?

Getting flashbacks to the letters the Pirate Bay used to send lawyers

I'm pretty sure in one they responded saying their lawyer was alseep in a ditch and would reply when he woke up lol


You sure that's not from something else?

Another poster here - I can confirm, have the same thing. I don’t worry too much about it though, I assume it will fade if I ever switch to other headphones.

Can you run ARM Windows on the metal now on Apple Silicon macbooks?


No. Only through virtualization.


Yeah I think no mission then of ARM Windows running well on this


Using Parallels yes. Whats “on the metal” ?


I mean booting into it directly, like we used to be able to do with bootcamp


If Asahi runs well on this I'd be very tempted to get one as a dedicated Linux machine


You could probably pick up a better spec used Air for the same money

I imagine XCode will run on this ok but it might be a bit painful
