Notarization is Apple's strict code signing process, which makes it hard for non paying and anonymous developers to distribute third party Mac software. Linux lets you run unsigned software without compromise.

Thanks for the definition.

So far, I've not run into a problem with this....

And with specific regard to my local AI and OpenClaw experiments and tools required for that....haven't run into a problem at all yet.

So, not a barrier of merit.

Especially with AI and ARM64 server development. Having to go through brew, containers and Apple's notarization process makes MacOS not a serious platform compared to bare metal Linux. In a twist of fate it is MacOS that is not ready for the AI desktop. Asahi is stuck on M1 and M2 so can't help you with M6 Macs.

Err...actually, OSX, so far in my experience is quite adapted to local AI.

Brew? What's wrong with that...pretty much the equivalent of of apt-get on some Linux installs, or whatever package manager you use there...

Docker is easy to run on Mac...actually it seems to give a bit more isolation they way it works on Mac...but set up is a breeze and while containerization is not required to run AI or OpenClaw on a Mac, it IS a good idea for security reasons to do so....Mac or Linux!!

Not familiar with any 'notarization" on my Mac set up, please explain?

OH...and running stuff on ollama, you get to take advantage of of the MLX framework for running local AI models....really speeds things along....

So, not quite sure why you are trying to say Macs aren't good for AI work....they actually are quite good for it AND I guess a bit more plug and play to get things set up and running.

And with any platform the more secure you make it, well that adds complexity, but it's worth it....I'd not want to turn OpenClaw or the like free on any platform without guard rails....

"[Racism] is right twice per day" is the phrase that comes to mind.

Racism....where does that come into play with this?

I don't see anywhere where any specific race was targeted or any restrictions were based on skin color, creed or sex, etc.....it just says that H1B (which could be anyone in the world) would be more $$ to bring into the US.

You're really reaching on this one.

If I'm mistaken PLEASE cite and point out where this is meaded out by race in the exec order or rule....

That's not the problem. The problem is we already are in a scenario where we have two good jobs for every five people. A good job here is something that lets you afford a one-bedroom apartment by yourself in a city that consistently has employment.

Apparently you and those like you, ONLY consider a city to be the equivalent of of NYC....which is quite the outlier.

Most other cities across the US, with plenty of good jobs, allow you to afford MUCH better than a 1 room apartment.

Actually he did NOT wipe the phone.

The officer that put a code in wiped the phone.

The officer was in no way obligated to put any code into the phone from any source....

Renting house now...no way to charge an EV at home.

Unless I ran an extension cord out in the open to the car...I"m lucky to have off street parking (a rarity in this area)...but it isn't covered.

And any generator I get, is gasoline powered....mostly for the reasons I described, much easier to drive gas cans into town as needed....and generator has to be portable.

2. Every phone mounting solution is janky shit and looks like janky shit. If I was still 16 and it was a beater from Craigslist, sure - but neither are the case.

I use the Quadlock system in my car same as on my motorcycle....with magnetic charging.

Works great, secure quick mounting and detaching the phone when leaving either vehicle.

On the bike it's on the handlebars obviously, but for there car I got a windshield mount that holds it and it works great!!!!

Me? I like my big iPhone, but I only replace them ever 6 years or so....so, with the cost spread out over that long, it isn't really $$.

My 2017 car doesn't have CarPlay...but no big deal, I just use Bluetooth to stream Spotify to the cars OEM head unit....plays great.

If I need to use maps, My phone is right there in easy vision and can still be playing tunes while giving me directions.

I do NOT want to talk to my fucking car.

Hell I can't stand phone assistance that tries to make me talk to the computer.

The only time I want to be talking to my car is when I'm cursing it fucking up, or the damned traffic situation at the time if it isn't moving at speed....

Given some of the places I drive, a pure EV is not an option for me ...

Amish communities?

Southeast in the US.....

Hell last time I used the app to look for public charging stations in New Orleans.....there were precious few.

Most of the ones on the app were private ones....

I"d really not want to be stuck with an EV just before or after a Hurricane when power can be out for a month or more easily.....

You can drive gas in....but it's not so easy to drive batteries in to re-fuel your car, even if you had a widespread public EV charging infrastructure down here.

I am thankful I have a car that is till majority populated with physical switches, buttons and dials I can operate 98% from muscle memory without having to take my eyes off the road....of if I do it is usually a second or less.

I prefer 2 seater sports cars, that's all I've had my life to date.....I like analog gauges, manual transmission and all.

Frankly if they could come out with a simple car like in my youth....a '78 280Z type car...simple transmissions, I was more than able to deal with crank windows....that thing ran forever, simple and fun to drive while I owned it.

No worrying about telemetry, no computer needs....I mean I'll be happy with it to have Bluetooth so I can stream Spotify to it, but other than that, just keep analog controls, and as little computer as possible.

Cars like that, can last multiple decades with a little care.....and I pretty much only want my distractions to driving to be when the stereo starts playing "Highway to Hell" or the like....and I start head banging while driving down the highway...a little faster.

No, but our aerospace industry learned a lot of useful things about how to operate in space. We can't be risk free if we want to make progress. In order to learn you have to fail sometimes; If we, the taxpayers, insisted on a refund that would likely put this company out of business and a lot of the learning would be lost.

So..what exactly are we learning for $30M?

How to fuck up a launch/deployment of a low orbing space craft?

Haven't we been in space long enough to learn those lessons?

Yes I'm a bit sarcastic....but seriously, what learning are we getting from our $30M.

If this company sucks....should they NOT go out of business and open bids up to more qualified companies for next shots?
