So Intel have found a few benchmarks in which they come out on top. How about an average of all benchmarks? I think they'd be left with little more than a fig leaf.

Electron isn't that bad, really, so this could be good.

Agreed. It'll never be used except maybe in some pointless demonstration.

It's more like a faint impression on a flat panel that's probably going to be annoying to anyone who prefers a little tactile feedback in their buttons.

You make it sound like anyone who doesn't use Python doesn't know how to indent code or that our code indentation is atrocious. My code is almost always indented properly (4 spaces, after a conversion from using tabs a couple of decades ago). However, there is the odd occasion where you choose not to indent something (usually a single line after an IF statement).

As an aside, I couldn't imagine Python will ever replace JavaScript because you can't minify it (so that's a good thing, I guess). Nobody's going to replace JavaScript in the browser any time soon, though.

When I was in Thailand a couple of years ago I noticed that their language is written like that -i.e., with no spaces between words. I don't know how they can live like that. It's incredible.

Found the AC who needs his hand held all the time in order to be a programmer

The main reason I haven't used Python IS its whitespace handling. Meaningful whitespace is an abomination.

I bought one a couple of months ago and so far I haven't used it much (for the apple content, anyway). I mainly use it for Netflix and Amazon Prime. There's precious little to watch that's from Apple that also doesn't also want me to pay more money to watch it. What's the point of paying a subscription to a service that puts a price tag on everything?!

Yep, I agree 100%. The Orville is more Trek than these new "Treks" (Enterprise, Discovery, Picard). The new movies have been awful, too. Lens flares everywhere and blowing up Vulcan?! I'd watch The Orville any day over "new Trek".

There hasn't been any good Star Trek since The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, or Voyager. Those were the last series that were watchable and enjoyable. Everything since then has been garbage. Why can't we have good writers again?!

The rest of the world and the whole scientific community uses Celsius for temperature measurements. Most of us outside the US (and perhaps the UK) have no real understanding of Fahrenheit. 100 degrees to me means boiling water.

Did I just say that?! :-)

I can't see me splurging on this. Gmail is already good enough.

They need to move to 7nm like AMD and make a decent chip. Intel's ailing architecture is partly the reason why Apple laptops are getting too hot (which is also Apple's fault because of its obsession with reducing size at the expense of adequate cooling). You'd be nuts to buy an Intel-based computer today. My next one is going to be an AMD Ryzen 3600 and my old Late 2013 MacBook Pro will be stuffed in a drawer.
