Screen, ports too (to be fair I've used the HDMI port about 5 times, and the card reader never).

The base model chip on the Air is binned too - 8 GPU cores on the Air vs 10 on the Pro.

Eh, you gotta clean the panels sometimes (rain washes off dust, but lichen/algae/moulds are pretty persistent).

Yep, and it's increasingly common around the world. In Australia, it's also fully rolled out in Brisbane and I believe it's just about finished being rolled out in Melbourne too.

It's now rolled out in Perth too, I think.

Turns out Adelaide too, and Canberra.

Meanwhile Hobart and Darwin are free PT right now.

Ah that’s great news, I’m from Perth but currently living abroad.

Binary fractions of a turn are also a nice intuition pump for two's complement in general.

Let's keep it simple and use just 8 bits. 0° is 0x00, 180° is 0x80, and 255/256ths of 360° is 0xFF. And if we wanted to use signed integers, then 0x80 through 0xFF - the high-bit half of the range - now represent the negative quadrants just as they represent negative integers.

and that's exactly what we did in the old days of 8 bit games. We called them BRADs but others had their own names.

Yeah, but there's certainly a part of the curve where price drops by X OOMs and demand increases by much more than X OOMs. (Presumably some of that is substitution and some of that is new use cases.)

You've touched on a key point: in a city, space is at a premium, so taking up a lot of it for yourself _really is_ luxury consumption.

Mmm, yes, some real parallels between Blindsight's conception of consciousness and LLM chain-of-thought reasoning.
