If you want to use Xcode (lowercase c) and generally do any dev stuff, don’t take the Neo. It’s not what it has been made for.
Also no, there won’t be any need for different code depending on A* vs M* chips (unless doing very specific code, but if you’re wondering whether to take the Neo, that won’t be your case).
And interestingly due to some very clever integrations[0], sending Apple Events (the underlying tech for the actual IPC communication done with AppleScript) is very easy to do in Swift. Easier than in AppleScript actually!
It’s a shame most apps do not support Apple Events anymore, though.
I’m probably gonna be downvoted to hell but I was rebutted by the part where the guy just throws away food because it was not vegan (and stopped reading after that). He did mention health issue concerns, so maybe it was on good faith, but AFAIK if you’re hungry, and I mean really hungry, you don’t care. You just eat what you have as long as it is edible.
Amazing the amount of people who hate on him for this part of the story. He didn’t throw away food, he stuck to his morals and didn’t eat it. Hating on a poor person for having dignity? Keep up the good work.
It is because that part does not track at all. It is not healthier to go hungry then to eat that food. It is not "simple life" to ge vegan, it is cranking the complexity and expenses up.
Some part of the story are clear failures of the system. Some parts have nothing to do with the system (moms and dads decision). Some parts are system actually helping, maybe not enough but helping.
And then there were genuinely confusing parts as in someone with a seemingly normal job and three houses feeling like they dont have secure housing.
If someone makes a decision base on wrong information, what’s to blame: the informations he got or his judgement ability?
Two dimensions to interpret this:
- article author judgement on what’s healthy based solely on its personal nutritional knowledge at the moment.
- the judgement of his decision, solely on the details of this post.
IMHO the only fault here is to omit more information he was basing his decision. But reading between the lines: he repeat being "hungry" but never saying "staving". That’s a huge difference: being hungry isn’t a health hasard.
Author actually frames the situation as more dire level of hunger then just "dinner was late by two hours" kind of hunger. The state of euphoria he describes when he could steal some basic food suggest hunger was quite serious. Not eating enough is actual health hazard, especially in the puberty even if you are not in the "loosing muscle, brain matter and veins material due to body eating itself" starving level.
Second, I am comparing it to the baseline in article - eating peanut butter, beans and hot dog sausage. I am not saying it will instantly kill you.

I think in some sense, this is a bit of a "failure of the system" if one considers that healthy foods (regardless of vegan or not) ought to be just as readily available as the ultra-cheap (ultra-processed) unhealthy stuff, and should maybe be at a similar enough price point as to not deny even the poorest in a properly civilized society at least the option to eat healthy if that's what they want, but somehow we've decided that maximizing for profit above all other things (including health) is the way to go for everything in society, including our food system. Fail.
Actual words from article: "but I was vegan and the box was full of garbage Spam and Frank and Beans type stuff that I ended up just settting out on the curb."
You are creating a fantasy to support your arguments.
So because of his economic realities he should be pragmatic enough to drop his values?
Can't you see what a slippery slope that is? And in fact, how dangerous that level of economic despair is for a functioning democracy?
It's also not fair, because people who are more fortunate to be born into a well-off family can eat vegan their whole lives.
This person did everything he was supposed to do, stood up for things he believed in, and still was left in the lurch along the way. This is not the American dream, it is a clear indication how arrested social mobility is in the US. The rags-to-riches "Horatio Alger" story has been a myth in the US for quite a well, buoyed by anecdotes that are predicated on luck.
But did you use 95 when you were young? I was using primarily MacOS at the time and always found windows particularly bad at everything, including UI/UX. I guess we like what we know…
> What is the physical principle that makes the water come out of the tap? How do they make it come out?
Curious coincidence, I was literally thinking yesterday: “but why does the water come out of the tap?” I self-answered “must be the pressure somehow” but did not dig much more…
