Guess we'll see (maybe) in December (Snapdragon 875 will be announced December 1st at Qualcomms Digital Summit) - or a bit later, but the 875, now also on 5nm, supposedly will be quite a bump. Leaked (supposed) benchmarks show 30%+ improvement, which would be A14 territory.

I also have my doubts, but would be great for the market. (New Exynos 2100 supposedly also being up there.)

That would be a great device to also include a touchscreen in a mac for the first time... after all macOS is getting more and more touch-capable UI and got iOS app support. :)

But like you said, likely would eat into the iPad market - on the other side, as long as they don't make it a 2-in-1, the iPad should still have more than enough reason to exist.

That blows my mind. Microsoft has had an ARM version of Windows for years. I would have thought they would have lept to support Bootcamp on these new Macs.

Why and for who though? Yes, there is an ARM version of windows, but there is pretty much no software for it - and most of the Windows ARM software (Office?) likely has already iOS versions and will have upcoming Mac ARM versions.

I have the feeling that 99%+ of Bootcamp users use it for x86 software.

wouldn't be that significant and the prices would be much higher initially anyway

I mean, the 5600X is about double the price of the 3600, depending on when you got the latter.

Just a follow up:

1) Don't think you miss much, don't see how it's supposed to provide me a better "mental space" as lets say a notion note.

2) I guess the only thing you're missing is daily at least one email from them...

Trump's account got deleted in the past by a twitter employee. (Potentially through the same tool?)

Pretty sure Twitter communicated after that that they took precautions that this won't be able to happen again.

I guess the question is why other high profile accounts like Obama's weren't secured the same way.

Remarkable if Microsoft really thought they could just buy two big streamers (and a couple of smaller ones) to get Mixer going and that Twitch market share - without making much change to the platform and its community.

"A typical Microsoft" I guess?

Big pay day for Ninja & Shroud though if they're really just free to join Twitch again, their returns will be huge.

First line of the article ;)

Starting today, May 1, we’re switching from our _cgit/gitolite_ setup to GitLab.

Interesting, I visited it from IPs from all around the world through different desktop browsers and it's available everywhere BUT there is no author and no author bio.

If that's (kind of) on purpose that's really weird, to suspend somebodies account but leave the article up and remove all the author references. Anybody from medium on hn :)?

Something to add though, it's informal.

Reddiquette is an informal expression of the values of many redditors, as written by redditors themselve

But I guess it makes sense for Reddit to move away from that rule. That's how you get big campaigns with companies like Adobe. Not by taking away their sub-reddits.

Personally I think I even prefer that though. Better than having heavily biased "community moderators", which is the case in way too many sub-reddits.

while looking at the article I just spied "09JAN19" on the back of the display

Motorola have been working away at this for over a year.

And (probably...?) successfully kept it a secret.

They didn't. January 16th: https://www.theverge.com/circuitbreaker/2019/1/16/18185101/m...

January 21th: https://www.theverge.com/2019/1/21/18191330/motorola-razr-le...

Rumoured initial release of February 2019 and the Snapdragon 710 that is in devices for over 1.5? years already I wouldn't be surprised if similar problems as Samsung's lead to that late release now.
