Its confusing to me that this would be the case, when the Bootes Void alone is ~330M ly in diameter; and that's small. The Canes Venatici Supervoid is upward of 1300M ly in diameter; the LOWZ North 13788 void is potentially as large as

Is there a good explanation as to why this paradox isn't explained by universal expansion? From wikipedia: "To any observer in the universe, it appears that all of space is expanding, and that all but the nearest galaxies (which a

This was also kind of the case with the PS3. Its sales weren't fantastic at release, partially because of its... $600 (?) price tag. But even at that price, at its release, it was one of the cheapest ways to get a Blu-ray player, and m

I believe this to be reasonable, though I believe there's an even stronger force at play: engineering retention. In other words, let engineers build whatever they want to build, within reason of course, because if they don't they

I feel the opposite, actually. I'm a pretty staunch privacy advocate, but the biggest thing I feel when, say, "obtaining" "through unspecified means" the latest season of Star Trek Discovery is: the studios who made

"VCS is truth" does not assert what it is, but rather its treatment in the system. There is no knowable truth in large-scale systems design. Velocity is relative in physics, right? Relative to what? What's the frame of refere

I kind of disagree. While obviously these three things (VCS, CI, and Deployments) are different things, there's a lot of value in reducing all of them to just one thing: VCS is truth. It can make the system far easier to reason about.

To be realistic: Windows and MacOS are both great for getting "real work done". I've never had an issue with this "35 character file save prompt" limit, and I cannot imagine it would be a dealbreaker even if I did.

No. They still need to be interpreted at runtime in unminified code, in order to determine that they are comments. This carries a cost; performance, sure, but more importantly it locks in a SWEEPING complex syntax change for decades which

To be frank, I hate to be the typical HN luddite, but this proposal [1] feels like it will add too much parsing complexity to runtime JS. The counter-argument to that is: everyone minifies code anyway, but this feels like a very poor argume

This entire comment just screams "it is how it is, until it isn't". Whether or not they decide to do it has nothing to do with anything you've said. They're already stocking six Studio Display SKUs in-store (if they

I don't feel that's a reasonable take, in this case. Apple's own marketing images show tons of these displays side-by-side with one-another. And that makes total sense; the M1 Ultra can run four of them IIRC. Apple customers,

You're speaking very confidently about the build quality of a display which was announced to the public two hours ago.

For me, its frustrating to not see an option without all the webcam, microphone, octuple speaker array, A13, 100w charging, TB hub, madness. I have to imagine that adds significant cost, and at $1600 we're not in the territory where th

I sometimes run an ultrawide (3440x1440) off my M1 Air. It works... ok. MacOS doesn't output more than 50hz, and every hour or so the display will flicker off and on. I haven't decided if its an issue with the M1, or an issue with

I feel that what's presented here is an intractable problem; there's no right answer, there are only aspects to the problem. I've thought about it a lot. First, this is a legitimate example of a slippery slope. That alone is

I don't feel something to that extreme is necessary. But I do believe something similarly controversial, which is: platforms which host user generated content should be required to enforce strong know-your-customer on UGC submission. T

Battle.net The Launcher doesn't pre-date Steam; it was released in the early 2010s. Previously, before Steam, Battle.net was a lot more nebulous, and would naturally have had less user lock-in. Games were individually distributed, and

I agree 110%. Actually, I disagree with one statement: "AWS was built for a specific purpose and demographic of user". AWS wasn't built for anyone. It was built for everyone, and is thus even reasonably productive for no one.

I am not the OP, but hold a similar stance, primarily for the reason that the mandates represent a "the last 20% takes 80% of the time" inefficiency in what should be a global effort to dampen the pandemic, and the massive resourc
