> This means the driver doesn't "search" for empty space. It calculates where data goes using math.
From my understanding, we're still searching for empty space? We just have an easily computable sequence of spots to check. E.g., if our stride is 7 blocks, then instead of going linearly with a stateful search, we can easily compute where we check. It's hard to pull this apart from the README. The README looks a bit LLM generated (clued in by OP's comment as well), which contributes to the difficulty versus a more thoughtful writeup. Interesting idea, it's just hard to tell exactly what's going on.
Additional info: Final Cut Pro is going to keep getting updates, but certain features (presumably AI related) are not going to be included with the one time purchase and are gated to the subscription [1].
The individual one time purchase versions are still available for all the apps. Final Cut, Logic, Motion, Compressor, and MainStage are offered in a bundle for education by Apple as a $199.99 one time purchase (no education status is verified) [1]. Pixelmator Pro is available as a one time purchase as well for $49.99 [2]. Not included in the Creator Studio is the Lightroom alternative Photomator, which is available as a one time purchase of $119.99. You could recreate just the Creator Studio as a one time $250 purchase, or the entire suite (including Photomator) for $370.
Not available for one time purchase are the AI features and templates available for the free apps (Keynote, Pages, Numbers, Freeform).
Personally, I'm glad that one time purchases are still options for the core pro suite: long term they do hold value compared to paying Adobe a subscription (or dealing with the high seas on macOS). However, I don't see things like the education bundle sticking around much longer, so purchase it sooner rather than later.
Yeah, to add some context for people reading this, jj fix works best for edits local to the diff, and it’s meant for edits mostly. With some trickery you could run some analysis, but it’s not what jj fix is meant for right now.
To bring up jujutsu, `jj fix` (https://docs.jj-vcs.dev/latest/cli-reference/#jj-fix) is a more refined way of ensuring formatting in commits. It runs a formatting command with the diff in stdin and uses the results printed to stdout. It can simplify merges and rebases history to ensure all your commits remain formatted (so if you enable a new formatting option, it can remove the need for a special format/style fix commit in your mutable set). Hard to go back to pre-commit hooks after using jj fix (also hard to use git after using jj ;) ).
I agree, my experience is anecdotal. Generally never heard much from Loudoun residents about noise (Loudoun is where most of the N. VA data centers are), it's more of a complaint you hear online from people in other parts of the country that are having data centers built near them. Again, anecdotal.
Ashburn/Loudoun resident here, lived right next to us-east-1 for 10+ years. No, the noise is not impactful. The data centers are very quiet on the outside. More noise comes from Dulles Airport nearby. Main problem is 1. visuals. They are horrendous blobs to look at. 2. land/electricity values. Gone up a lot in the past few years. Happy to answer any questions.
Marco seems really interesting! I'm curious as to how the UX is with solely IMAP. Whenever I use iCloud/Outlook/Gmail accounts on a different email client (e.g., using my Outlook email on Mail.app or my Gmail on the Outlook client), the IMAP experience just feels subpar compared to using the regular client (I have three email clients on my dock right now because of this...). Usually this shows in not great push notifications or actions I perform not getting synced properly. Has Marco been dealing with these issues, or have I just not been using the right email clients?
Google Workspace looks like the best option. Decent plus is that I'm already using a Google account for a lot of things except email. Main concern I had (forgot to include in original post) was calendar. I use iCloud+Calendar.app for calendar (and basically nothing else), and my existing Google account doesn't play too well with it. Figure I could mostly mitigate this by looking into other calendar clients (Notion Calendar works with Google which is a plus).
I've seen purelymail, but my biggest doubt about it is getting blocked by email servers. I don't send too many emails, and almost all are sent to Gmail/Outlook accounts. Love the pricing though; I don't use up a massive amount of storage with my emails (way way way under outlook's free storage with 10 years of use) and pay as you go seems really nice.
