About as relevant as the parent... Not very relevant, but since the parent gives a short overview of browser engine history, we might as well point out that it started with the then-excellent khtml from the KDE project, that powers konquero

Hmm, I just double-checked OVH's VPS offers and actually, it's 2GB RAM, 20GB disk, 1vcore, unlimited 100Mbps for €3.5/month (€4.20 with VAT). That's their "starter" offer.

Well, you are right that it may learn statistical associations that we associate/generalize ourselves with/as a model when we probe it. I think the key bit here is that we can influence its associations by inputting the prompt, ch

Not necessarily. Training pushes language models towards generalization and "understanding" of concepts. It certainly "knows" some stuff. However it can't reason about it. There have been some articles on HN recentl

It depends on what emits light in your monitor. Backlight (led/fluorescent tube)? OLED? Electron fluorescense in CRTs? Quantum fots? Usually red emission is wanted close to red cone sensitivity peak (actually a bit redder than that, as

To my understanding (I've never dug deep into the spec), Display Port is packet-based, and every DP interface should support tunnelling data for other outputs (DP MST for Multi Stream Transport). Does eDP support this? I think a "

Hmm, I keep thinking this would be better handled with 3D position vectors (on a sparse 3D grid; 3D because it's 2D game coordinates + time): not every unit is at the same place at the same time. You could even apply the same "spr

Both y-crdt and Automerge are rust libraries (though the latter seems to have a lot more targets), is there a short rundown/vs comparison somewhere? This article compares performance with yjs, but not y-crdt, and there are probably oth

I'd make it binary-like, like another commenter said. Change 3 to 2+1, 6 to 4+2. 8 takes the current 6, and 7 becomes 6+1, 9 becomes 8+1 (current 7). That also gives you hex digits to work with for free, each symbol could store up to F

Well, another obvious extension would be to prolong the vertical line, since it's already ordered by rows (two of them). Or, indeed, you could make an array out of them, making a super-glyph (kind of like a block matrix). Four blocks o

Well, the question was: can you do analog designs? Designing your own transistors, not relying on logic gates library. That's what full custom means. That opens the door to less conventional stuff, such as CMOS imagers, memories, RF&

A few friends of mine are working with event-based cameras. Such cameras aren't thaexpensive, and can sidestep a lot of that processing (well, at least the exposure part, with almost infinite dynamic range, and high framerates). They s

I agree it isn't perfect, and like most open APIs, some will do the lazy thing. Thanks for the numbers. Just a heads up: a single misbehaving implementation can cause a huge spike in traffic, so I suggest you de-duplicate before comput

What do you think of Yggdrasil to handle mesh routing? I know it has "flapping" issues (connecting and disconnecting the root node rapidly), though that was somewhat mitigated, and need to control the root (compute/"mine

Can't antenna gain help a lot as well? Parabolic dishes, etc.

I think (I'll have to touch it up soon) that my CV bundles skills by degree of familiarity. I wonder if that's appropriate? For instance, I have used lisp dialects to build useful functionality, but I'm not that comfortable w

Awesome! Can one submit semi-custom or full-custom layouts as well as digital logic? We have FPGAs for (most) logic stuff, but what if I wanted a tiny, power-efficient RF (Wi-Fi or GPS for instance) chip?

I'm just going to point out that GNU netcat has nothing to do with the GNU project, which confused me a lot :)

That was me 13 months ago... If can do it, so can you! I felt completely burnt out back then (still do to an extent). I wonder if allowing myself to work on something else to relax would have helped? on the other hand, it's much easier

That's true, but you can refill them if necessary, and you should store them uncompacted (compact for travel).

I also wish it was an UnifiedPush client too!

It isn't about using the CPU. It's about waking from sleep to keep the connection alive, and being able to kill background apps to save memory. It's a battery saving feature. UnifiedPush is just here so that an app can tell o

There are a few, like fairphone, maybe shiftphones, and you can probably buy a few with /e/ pre-installed. You can also try any old phone supported by LineageOS. https://support.fairphone.com/hc/en-us/art

A good soldering iron (~€70) A nice sleeping bag (~€300) We shall see about the rest. I recently bought a Stanley hot water bottle, I'll see how much I use it.

The confusing part is treating "port forwarding" as a single word. It should be read as local port (forwarding) and remote port (forwarding). With local, the listening port is local. With remote, it is remote.
