To give an example: I once considered entering the market of doctor appointment software. The existing players in my country all have bad UX, and it seemed relatively easy to build a superior product. But then on researching it deeper I dis

Every bit of interactivity/ reactivity that product wants to add to the page feels like a weird hack that doesn't quite belong there, polluting the simple, declarative model that your views started off as. This doesn’t need to b

If people want to "cheap out" they can always get it with the base storage and hang a big thunderbolt drive off the back. It basically performs the same as if it was built-in, at a much lower price. One can get the entry level 27

They can get rid of the T2, inlining those functions on the main SoC, which should also simplify the motherboard design. Realistically though, I don’t expect them to undercut that $999 price tag much, if at all.

Yes. The A12Z in the ipad pro is already 25% faster is in single core and 50% faster in multicore than the highest end i7 in the 2015 macbook pro according to geekbench 5. Given that the chip in macbooks will be a lot faster than the A12Z,

Statistical literacy doesn’t necessarily help. Economists have proven to be “excellent” armchair virologists. They understand the statistics well enough that they think they can give an informed opinion, but because they don’t actually unde

Xserves were really loud. I doubt you'd want it anywhere near an audio setup, unless it was in a separate room. You can hear it at 6:30 in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdMKuHVnjik

The primary display at login time determines the windows system dpi, so will have apps scaled correctly and if they are dpi aware they will appear sharp. If apps appear wrongly scaled on the primary display at login, they implemented dpi aw

I wouldn’t trust a pilot to take over from the computer during a crisis if they’ve barely done any real flying in the past few years. Humans need practice to become and remain skilled. I’m worried about the effect of such systems on pilot s

But you sit closer to it so it needs to be sharper. The issue with 1080p at 14 inch is that 150% scaling has blurriness issues with bitmap graphics and 100% scaling is a bit too small and 200% scaling is a little bit too big for most people

Regarding “the taste of wine”. I have for uninteresting reasons never gotten drunk, never trained my brain to associate positive feelings with wine or alcohol. As a result, wine for me subjectively is elaborate fruit juice. When I am given

Humans are exposed to much more input than just the things they read. Think of every thing you've ever seen and how much data that represents. All of that is your training data. Is it more or less than GPT-3?

Many thanks for this, it's an excellent resource. A suggestion for a next iteration: it would be nice to see which approaches work in IE11 / legacy edge. From looking into web components it seems those browsers are the major stumb

The specific claim was that barack obama for certain would light ballots on fire. Accusing a specific individual in the public sphere of definitely intending to commit a crime sounds like it matches the legal definition of libel to me.

Chrome is bad with memory if you’re a tab hoarder, and some extensions can also be problematic. They have an update in the pipeline which will dramatically decrease memory use for background tabs. I haven’t really seen the memory problems w

You can appeal these fines in the court system if you want, and google always does this. Sometimes they win, sometimes they lose. There's no chilling effect on free speech that I can see. All speech is subject to GDPR, so it only matte

I have the problem since a few weeks, and no I’ve never done anything with microvibrations while wearing them. I do wear the case close to my body, so it may be adhesive weakening caused by heat. That would explain why some people don’t hav

I would argue the opposite. You want your developers to be on a wide variety of OS, browser and screen resolution, to be representative of your users.

I’ve been thinking for a while along similar lines for a discussion platform, but came to a different conclusion. I think the trick is turning weakness into strength. People really want to fight, they want to make bold statements, and they

I never understood why they don’t just put the dual heat pipe on all models. I run my t460p with gpu disabled, and the dual heatpipe cools the cpu so effectively that the fan is inaudible most of the time.
