My theory: retinal photos often contain parts of eyelashes. Women's are statistically longer. Their eyes are also more almond shaped. Retinal photographs are hard to take. Often they contain significant amount of eyelashes and surround

Meanwhile, Java has incredible support for several kinds of profiling for a decade. This is the reason I don't liKe Go: anything Google deems unimportant (like generics or packaging) either take many years or never happen. The whole la

Yes, it goes back to ES3. Babel does have a neat automatic polyfill system typescript doesn't. But both can target real old JS versions. Most JS packages you'll find on NPM are still ES5. Transpilers are quickly making JS a compil

Eh, my take, Typescript won. Does the same thing as Babel but supports static types and inference in regular JS.

Newest gen Ryzen laptops are different. They're significantly more energy efficient than older AMD and any Intels. The energy efficiency of new AMD processors is something like 50% higher than Intel. Couple other things working against

Is this their way of saying that people don't want to go back to starvation wages and managed to find better jobs post COVID after being laid off? This is basically McDonalds - "We laid our employees off during an economic disaste

I'm a cynic, but rich investors will be bailed out like in 2008. Crypto will be allowed to crater since it's owned by small holders. If you want to be protected when the bubble pops, buy what rich companies do. Real estate and blu

When they need to handle UPD and TCP. Cloudflare's web application firewalls run at TCP and HTTP layer and use tuned Linux kernels for processing, not DPDK and userspace TCP as some think Their line rate stuff for flood mitigation uses

NASA nah, they transitioned to third party launch providers many years ago. They like making space vehicles more than rockets. The SLS, yes, that's a classic pork project. ULA is the real problem. The government allowed all the launch

^^ this is huge. I was looking at CPU's for a ML recently and Intel is out of the question. Chips with enough lanes to hit full speed on 4 GPUs + SSD cost twice as much as AMD. This may even apply to high end gaming machines. Soon as y

I'll add that with DPDK you end up needing your own TCP stack if you're doing anything above layer 3. TCP is a beast with opportunity for countless subtle bugs. The Linux kernel is perhaps the best implementation there is. Many us

I've given up on Xsense distros and use OpenWrt. It's Linux based so Wiregaurd is in kernel and easy to setup. I keep trying to get people to try it out :) . I left pfSense community years ago when drama started and it became clea

I swear by OpenWrt. It's not just for wifi routers. It's a regular Linux distro you can run on X86 too. My favorite thing about OpenWrt is SQM CAKE, state of the art traffic shaping. A panacea for slow links

There's a lot of JIT's using LLVM for code generation. Including some shader compilers, Azul's JVM, and I believe Safari's JS. DynASM is another popular library, used by Lua and others. Crane lift was originally designed

I've heard the anecdote many times that the idiomatic way of writing Rust tends to also be performant. I've spent some time fiddling with C code to reuse buffers and avoid copies, make loops amenable to auto vectorization. Many ti

By the same token, I think most uses for C++ these days are nuts. If you're doing a greenfield project 90% of the time it's better to use Rust. C++ has a multitude of its own pitfalls. Some of the C programmer hate for C++ is just

Dense housing naturally causes businesses to move closer. I don't know of any cities where a dense urban core isn't also filled with businesses and very walkable. It will naturally happen if they allow dense housing

Forcing low density housing causes sprawl. Look at European cities which generally have cores 5-10x denser than Cali. Most of them have no such traffic problems because you don't have the whole population travelling 30 miles on roads e

IMO it's not true. If it wasn't for rampant NIMBY in Cali developers would gladly replace low density housing with skyscrapers. There's less space but you can always build up. But none of the Cali cities allow this. That'
