@kf this surgeon looks eminently qualified. Who did he operate on?

Imagine working for a company that is so well managed, that is so well organized and competently led, that a genuinely felt need for a tool that let you be in three meetings at the same time somehow emerged organically from the working culture as a problem worth solving.

Imagine working somewhere that building a tool that let people be in three meetings at the same time sounded like a good idea.

@mhoye The first one doesn't exist. The second one exists all too frequently, but shouldn't.

many countries, including Canada, do not let convicted criminals to visit, so really wonder what happens if Trump does actually win (or take) the presidency - like will there actually be G7 summits, or 3 amigos meetings?

@MatWright remember when Gordon Campbell was convicted of drunk driving in Hawaii?

the fact that knowing how to spell is a competitive sport should be viewed as an outright condemnation of english as a language.

phpc.social is now on Mastodon 4.2.9, released a little over 3 hours ago. We're also taking this opportunity to run OS updates, so will have a brief blip as the server reboots shortly.

@outofcontrol @ian yes, this!

“Apple silicon MacBook Pro batteries can't be replaced under warranty by third parties”

https://lapcatsoftware.com/articles/2024/5/7.html

> Apple now requires that the MacBook Pro be mailed in to Apple for battery replacement!

This is important information if you live here in Iceland as there is no official Apple store in the country and we're an island in the middle of fucking nowhere.

@kboyd@phpc.social avatar

@baldur I also live on an island with no apple stores (albeit only a ~4 hour trip to the nearest one on the mainland), and have never liked this aspect of mac ownership.

I might go Framework next.

Iceland does have the advantage of active volcanoes, though. Why go through the hassle of a warranty return when you can just fling the POS into a lava flow ...

@Daily_Twerk @baldur actually, they're terrible for it. Stuff doesn't sink, it just sits on the surface and crisps.

I have a question regarding dependencies and semver for maintainers. let's say I have package B which depends on package A.

If I move a class from package A to package B does this constitute a BC break for A and B or only for A ?

kboyd,
@kboyd@phpc.social avatar

@nyamsprod @cam could project A's interfaces be updated to inherit from the "new" interfaces in project B? That way dependencies of A wouldn't necessarily break right away ...

(But sometimes a clean break is better)

@literalgrill @Taffer I wonder how much OpenAI paid them to stop publishing negative news stories about ChatGPT and Altman?

Back of the envelope: for a Panamax cargo ship to get from Japan to Hawaii requires about 1GWh of stored power.

This is probably about $40m in batteries, but saving maybe $4m/year in fuel.

(Batteries will of course get cheaper, and fuel more expensive).

kboyd,
@kboyd@phpc.social avatar

@avi how much solar can you hypothetically fit on such a ship? And how big of a hypothetical sailplan?

It obviously wouldn't eliminate the hypothetical power needs, but it might be able to reduce the hypothetical battery costs.

kboyd,
@kboyd@phpc.social avatar

@avi sail is also tougher for the concept of an existing ship - does one calculate by parachute style sails? Kite style? Or those neat vertical cylinder ones?

The gym is definitely the place I consistently get the most puzzled/mocking looks for wearing a mask, but since most of the people I know who said things in 2020 like "I don't need a vaccine, I have an immune system" were also ostensibly the health and fitness crowd...

kboyd,
@kboyd@phpc.social avatar

@airadam that's a neat mask! Is it n95? I've not seen any stylish n95s around here. (I'm not much of a gym person, but I'm definitely a masking person. Considering getting a Flo mask for an upcoming flight.)

Hey Canadian Sports Mastodon'ers. Convince me to keep my Sportsnet+ subscription now that my hockey team is out of the playoffs and the Bluejays are generally not great.

Currently leaning towards: Dump it until at least the fall.

(We don't have any other TV subscriptions)

Getting an "unknown item compatible with the Find My network is with you" notification when I'm at home, at three AM, is... curious.

@mhoye don't worry, palmer luckey is on it. He's gone full defense contractor.
