No force touch doesn't necessarily mean no haptics. I would assume Apple didn't go backwards to a physically clicking touchpad.


Bad news. It's physical trackpad. https://youtu.be/mBkYho_4CSg?t=226


I can't go back, now that I've discovered the joys of "tap to click". But I doubt most new Mac users would notice.


I really dislike "tap to click" for some reason. I like the feedback of actually pressing it.


A physical trackpad can also do 'tap to click'.


Really? Terrific.


I used a base M1 air for my primary personal laptop for 5 years. It was fine with VS code and any development work sans running containers.


OP has a valid point. On my Mac, it's unreadable without zooming in. I immediately left the page.


Thanks for the valuable feedback. I've added a mediaquery for your use case. This should be more legible now: https://lukeb42.github.io/vertex-manual.html

Send me a screenshot via https://catbox.moe if it's unreadable and I'll get this done and dusted before leaving the thread. Thanks.


All you need is a solar charge controller and a battery, and optionally an inverter.

You dont need a company to do this for you, unless you want pay $$ to connect wires.


Close. It means there's no persistent infra charges and you're charged on use. You dont run anything permanently.


It still doesn't capture the concept because, say, both AWS Lambda and EC2 can be run just for 5 minutes and only one of them is called serverless.


Unless the engineer takes steps to spin down EC2 infrastructure after execution, it is absolutely persistent compute that you're billed for whether you are doing actual processing or not. Whereas lambda and other services are billed only for execution time.


Drywall is pretty amazing, but I don't agree with all the points in the article.

It cheap to buy and cheap to install, easy to cut and installs fast. It's tolerant with imperfect walls and is surprisingly flexible. It can also be seamlessly repaired.

It can also act as a primary air barrier.

I do not like moisture resistant drywall, moisture control is more important as well as using proper materials in high humidity areas.


Because drywall is cheap, incredibly tolerant of movement and irregularities. It's also super easy to repair. It can also act as an air barrier for energy efficiency. A drop ceiling is terrible for that and is ugly AND expensive.


It's more important to control moisture than buy moisture resistant materials.

Drywall is great, its cheap and easy to repair.

I would not want to live in any water damaged house without remediation due to the risk of mold.


Everything costs money. It's not like drywall doesn't allow you to soundproof, 2x layers of 5/8" is a common method as well as staggering 2x4's in a 2x6 wall.


It's not just the drywall, for comfort you need to soundproof the floors and the structure as well.


Wood isn't flimsy. Drywall is fine, it's cheap and easy to repair. If built correctly can last 100+ years.
