I agree, there are multiple factors at play. But I don't think it's basically an implementation choice. Certainly it looks like it in some cases (S821 on battery, HSW-E and SNB-E). But it doesn't seem to be the case elsewhere. For example, speed shift lowers clock transition time by taking the OS out of the control loop.
- bee_rider 4y agoFor some reason, this site hides the reply button after a certain reply-chain length, but you can just click on the person's name. This will show all their posts, including the one you want to reply to (you may have to look for it), with the reply buttons present. I guess they must be trying to softly dis-incentivize really long chains, but not block them outright? It doesn't really make sense to me...
