In 2003, Apple released a 64-bit dual-core 1.8Ghz system: Power Mac G5.
In 2023, Apple released a 64-bit dual-core 1.8Ghz system: Apple Watch Series 9.
The Watch is faster and has more RAM.
The G5 was too hot to put in a laptop. It'd use up S9's battery in under 2 minutes.

4D saga

4D SAS ima novog vlasnika

Kako je počelo

Prvo smo 28.11.2024. dobili email u kojem smo obavešteni da je 4D prodat, iako je većina nas to već pretpostavljala posle linka na forumu koji je pokazivao na promene u farncuskoj verziji APR-a.

Dan kasnije stiže drugi mail koji nas obaveštava o promenama u EULA.

Onda stiže informacija i o novim cenovnicima. Ovo je nemački (praktično je isti u celoj Evropi). 4D Server poskupeo sa 1300 evra na 1959, dodatni 4D Client sa 350 evra na 659, Web licenca za 4D server sa 1130 na 3990.

Diskusija na 4D Forumu.

###Ko je u problemu

Oni koji imaju standalone aplikacije, oni koji imaju mnogo 4D Clienata u klijent server okruženju.

###Šta je rešenje

Ovi sa standalone aplikacijama traže alternative.

Favorit za prelazak: Xojo (formerly known as Realbasic).

U opticaju su Xamarin (očajnici), Lazarus, Flutter, QT,

###Šta će Mikijevi poslodavci da rade

Idemo dalje, s tim da ćemo tokom 2025 da ubrzamo proces da naša Web verzija dostigne funkcionalnost u klijent server okruženju.

Šta će Miki da radi

Miki se odlučio za Swift za svoj jedini standalone projekat za malu grupu klijenata.

The Browser company ima framework za Windows.

Uglavnom, radim u Adobe suite na PC već sto godina, većinom Illustrator, InDesign i manje Photoshop, pripremam razne materijale za tisak. Trenutno vrtim PC s Intelom i9-13900K, 64 GB RAM, AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT na dva 4k monitora. Sve to radi OK ali mi je zapeo za oko novi Mac Mini M4 pa me zanima ima li uopće smisla (pored ovog PC kojeg imam) nabaviti novi Mac mini i da li bi on radio brže/bolje s Adobe paketom? Nekako gađam Mac Mini M4 Pro, 48 GB RAM i 1T disk. Ne zanima me igranje na Macu, isključivo Adobe paket i eventualno QGis.

Helium Is the iPhone’s Kryptonite - TidBITS

Back in the xbox 360 days with the bad GPU chip people would suggest to wrap your XBox in a towel and run it for a while. The theory was that, with all the vents blocked, it'd heat up the inside enough to repair solder joints inside the machine. And this apparently did work for enough people that it became a common recommended tactic.
My question is: how???

He has moderate-to-severe hearing loss, so AirPods won't directly help him, but it's incredible how some of the features like 'conversation boost' (directional boosting to just speech frequencies in front of you) were things that ten years ago were brand new features on pairs of hearing aids that cost $5000-$6000. And now people can get the same thing for $249.

I went to this dev meetup yesterday evening. It's usually mobile dev focused, and the main talking points were all about "what to do now" that devs were spooked by Apple. I don't think "it's a few grumpy devs", it feels more like big chunks of the dev community are quietly feeling very sick.

Martin Pilkington:
Apple had an opportunity to willingly allow competition through sideloading and other app stores and to simply win by being better.
The problem now is competition is being forced on them but they’re not in a position to be better and have pissed off developers enough that they may not even give them a chance even if they were better, if other good options exist

Drew McCormack:
The problem I see with Apple today is that it is a Cargo Cult. Early 2000s Apple was not afraid to kill darlings — they were not scared of disruption, and best of all was to disrupt yourself. That's not true anymore. It's “And Jobs said there shall be a store, and thou shalt take 30%, and all will be content.” This has become religion, when Jobs himself would have seen the writing on the wall years ago, and adapted. No one at Apple has that power or vision anymore. It's just a religion. An echo.
