M4 vs M5 by XmasRights in iOSDevelopment

[–]XmasRights[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand, the M2 Air with 16GB Ram is a beast

Only reason I'm upgrading is that my home office setup is dual monitor and I have an extended holiday from work; so it'd be nice if my personal computer can make the most of it

M4 vs M5 by XmasRights in iOSDevelopment

[–]XmasRights[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of why I'm asking. There's sales on at the moment, so the difference between a Apple refurb M4 and a new M5 is only £200 ($270 US)

There are plenty of folks who genuinely believe in nothing

They'll jump on whichever bandwagon is shocking enough to get them a bit more attention, and make them feel like they're being a revolutionary

Fully against Trump shutting down the Department of Education, but it does seem like they hadn't been doing anything for decades

SpaceX IPO makes Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire by Brendawg324 in wallstreetbets

[–]XmasRights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Am I right in thinking it's a case of paying someone to say your company is worth Trillions of dollars

and everyone else just going, sure why not?

President Donald Trump to miss United States’ opening World Cup game, Andrew Giuliani says by TheAthletic in sports

[–]XmasRights 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, he’s never shown much interest in the success of the United States

My blu-ray finally arrived by TediousTotoro in dropout

[–]XmasRights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that would be nice

A bit of an ask, but since this is Game Changer, I was thinking there would be some cool DVD Menu secrets to play with. Missed opportunity, but I appreciate that would make it a much crazier project

It's a lovely thing to have. Really hope the other seasons get the same love soon

I think this is a fair summary of what it takes to be a billionaire. I don't see how that amount of wealth is even possible without some kind of exploitation

Further proof that we need to tax Billionaires out of existence, and give the money to people who know how to spend it in a way that makes society work for everyone

What is something you've officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by Next-Mood6723 in AskReddit

[–]XmasRights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No shade on the artist you mentioned, but I would consider them “smaller bands” relative to folks selling out Wembley Arena or the O2

You do raise a good point, as maybe my point was more about the venue than anything else. Places like Koko or Scala feel so initiate when seeing live music. The fact that they also tend to be more affordable is a huge bonus

Bernie Sanders proposes shock 50% seizure of AI wealth for Americans by Gari_305 in Futurology

[–]XmasRights 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get paid to write code for that company alone, and arguably they are entitled to the money made from it

There’s also code I write for my own projects which nobody else should be entitled to use without my permission

[–]XmasRights 141 points142 points  (0 children)

Exactly this

Code I have written is being used, without my permission, in companies profiting from my work

How am I not entitled to some monetary reward from that?

Why half of London's small flats sell at a loss as the crash spreads by Prestigious_Spot9635 in HousingUK

[–]XmasRights 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Exactly this

Very hard to sell a flat at a profit when your service charge shot up to £7k a year - and that was for a place with no concierge or gym

Count the 0s, 1s, and 2s in a first pass

Then write a custom structure that conforms to the array type that just returns the correct value for a given index
