Well, part of their strategy is to be able to much more rapidly design a wide variety of specialized parts, such as their ability to generate the specification computationally in 15 minutes. They recognize that the needs of the market are c

The twin instruction streams have the advantage in that the instructions are split between two completely separate caches that can have reduced latency relative to (total) capacity, bringing benefits in the case of branch mispredict.

I leave tap water in a carafe in my refrigerator overnight before drinking it, and even that tastes dramatically different when warm than when fresh out of the fridge.

I have a 24" UHD screen and have no trouble reading at 1:1 scaling.

I'd certainly be all for web pages with QML performance. QML is a tremendously easy way to leverage OpenGL acceleration.

The dehumidification is done before the precooler, I'd expect. They seem to inject it at the end, collect it somehow, then inject it upstream of the first injection location, then collect it again, then inject again upstream of that...

This is really incredibly awesome. The SABRE is turning out to be "Countercurrent exchange: the engine".

Closed back headphones don't offer as much "soundstage" as open-back headphones. With open-back headphones things really sound like they're coming from outside of your head, which is critical for the 3d sound illusion.

I have an older 2012 Gazelle Pro with a wide-gamut TN screen. It's fast and quiet, the keyboard and touchpad are decent, and the screen is mostly good. I don't know about new ones, but that version is SUPER easy to clean out: remo

You still have depth perception with one eye...you get parallax from head movements. When viewing photos you don't get any parallax. I wonder if there could be experiments using VR to measure this effect?

A long time ago there were cars with the shoulder belt attached to a motorized track on the door frame that would pretty much force you to wear it...only for the front seats though. Maybe instead of a power button, cars should turn on when

I have the same Etymotics earplugs as someone in an above comment. They were the best 15 dollar purchase I've ever made. I wear them even in only moderately loud situations. Unlike foam earplugs, the only part that is visible is clear

No, the profit of co-generation from 100W of computation has to be greater than (the productivity loss from the geographic dispersion of the computational resources minus the cost of actively cooling the computers). The electricity is free

It performs better on larger features. Anime is almost never drawn with finer detail than the output resolution, so artifacts are not a problem. This is a low resolution scan of something with very fine detail, something which it is not tra

I imagine more advanced things like face recognition and such are not so simple, but from my experience writing a raw converter, a lot of image processing is far simpler than you'd expect.

Many ordinary shop air nozzles are supersonic; you can see they have a convergent-divergent nozzle (or are an aerospike) like a "real" rocket. That's not such a big deal.

The problem there is the perceived unfairness that occurs when someone else in the company, sharing your approximate job, puts you out of work via automation. How do you compensate those who lose their jobs as a result? What if they were al

It took me a week to get to 70wpm or so. I can do 100+ sustained now with not much fatigue. I had been getting hand pains in qwerty, so I switched completely during a paper in high school and haven't looked back. I can type nearly as f

I type on a 1995-vintage laptop M keyboard (M6-1), adapted with a custom board and a microcontroller. It has the strong tactility with less noise.

I was hoping to be able to frame a 51" wide panorama I have...but I was disappointed.
