The cross bronx expressway doesn’t “connect the same areas” as any subway, seeing as 95 runs north and south from Maine to Florida. IIRC, it was a question to run 95 “inconveniently” through more parts of Manhattan and wealthier areas (read

This. It’s rather funny, because I observe among my peers, who are millenials, that if they can’t have a thing (cars, houses), then no one should have them.

Apple lines perimeter of the nand chips on modern mac minis with an array of tiny capacitors, so even the crazy people with heater boards can’t unsolder the nand and replace them with higher density NAND.

Apple could just make lower tier macbooks but mac fanboys wouldnt be able to ask “but what about apples quarterly profits?” Most macbooks dont need high memory bandwidth, most users are using their macs for word processing, excel and vscode

Yes it was so divisive in the late 18th century in what became the U.S. that the founding father punted the issue so that the 13 states would ratify the new constitution. The issue was swept under the rug until that rabble rouser Abe Lincol

Isn’t a big advantage of an accelerator is that its more optimized to do this sort of work than a cpu? This npu is a tiny dot on the Meteor Lake die while the cpus take up a whole tile and accounts for much of the power usage of the soc at

The thing that makes me curious about BSD (haven’t had a chance to give it a try yet) is that its more of a complete system, unlike Linux, which is a kernel in the middle of all of these modular components. How these components are managed

You complain about the documentation, and the first thing I wonder is if you’ve tried using one of the prominent chatbots like chatgpt or claude to help fill in the gaps of said documentation? Maybe an obvious thing to do around here, but I
