I used to work in UX and lots of companies use tools where you can track users interactions. I could basically watch recordings in real-time of people interacting with the app and seeing what they click on, where they browse to, etc. It isn't recording video as such, but just playing back the interactions in real-time. I forget the name of the tool, but a lot of companies use it and it will be covered in their terms and conditions under the umbrella of tracking user data, not much different to Google Analytics and the likes. We were not able to see anything outside of the app, but you would (or probably wouldn't, actually) be surprised what detailed information most apps collect.

I agree that it is basically impossible to fulfil both needs. As with most theft deterrents it's not about making it impossible for a thief to do something about an item being tracked, but to make it sufficiently more hassle than an alternative item. So if, for example, you put an AirTag on your bike, it might not be about the thief never knowing the bike is tracked, but to make it sufficiently harder to remove/disable the AirTag on bike. The vast majority of thefts are opportunity thefts and so in that sense it might even be better for the thief to KNOW the bike has an AirTag on it, so the thief might move on to an easier target. Sadly, that is how most theft protection works - you can never make it impossible, so just make it harder than most of the others. And thus continues the never ending arms race..

Ehm, you can use Apples new Game Porting Toolkit. Some people have managed to port Diablo 4 already and tons of other games. https://www.applegamingwiki.com/wiki/Game_Porting_Toolkit

Number 21 is amazing and should have been there from the start. So many things make sense to be shareable, especially if you don't live alone. We have an Airtag on our dogs collar and it's so stupid that only I can see it, but not my girlfriend who lives with me. Finally!

Nowhere does the leaked slide say Intel is targeting m1 max.  Alder lake already beats m1 max at many tasks. With arrow lake-p, Intel is targeting whatever chip apple will have in-market in late 2023/early 2024. 

What’s not mentioned in the slide is arrow lake-H. Intel’s p-series are it’s low power series. Intel’s h series are it’s high end mobile chips that offer desktop class performance. 

If an intel low power p-series chip beats apple m2 max or m3 max, then the h series will have even more performance still. At a higher wattage of course.  

My take: Arrow lake-p seems to be designed to match a similar performance per watt as apple’s m series chips. Arrow lake-h seems to be designed to leave apple in the dust. But only time will tell. The benefactor of this competition will be us, the consumer. 

The headline of the article clearly states the goal is efficiency. So why do you talk about performance? And please enlighten us on your insights on M2 max and M3 max..
