But for context, the previous sentence on that page is: “You can also import any available system modules, such as Darwin on macOS and Glibc on Linux” The random number examples aren’t saying that’s the right way to generate random numbers

This used to work great and is still my preferred method of back up, however for at least the past year it has been extremely unreliable. I have to manually load iTunes on my computer and initiate a back up from there because it never happe

Can someone help me interpret these two graphs? The updated one seems to be a lot smoother across the frequency range if a bit less effective on average. Maybe smoother noise cancelling is better in some perceptual way?

Was this published in 2019 or 2020? There’s a line pretty far down the page in the Enterprise Dabblers section that says “As of today (January 2019), we see a half dozen pitches a week for automation software” Maybe that was a typo? Or mayb

It’s unlikely there’s any way to do that on iOS, but in theory you could do that on a desktop OS. Pretty sure there would be such a massive amount of text throughout the day, you couldn’t just do a simple filter search, you would need to so

This is awesome, I’ve been meaning to try building something like this myself after watching the WWDC talks of all the built-in ML features of iOS. I wonder how difficult it would be to hook up the index of text to the spotlight search API

I agree in principle, but if you want to get your Pebble working, check out “Rebble”. I’m happily using my old Pebble steel smart watch with iOS! Potentially more on topic though, Apple gives significantly more functionality to the Apple Wa

Exactly. According to what you said, any service with that policy could literally shut down next year if there is a deprecation announcement this year. Which is better than some small no name startup service provider who might just go out o

I own both a bike and an e-scooter and one of the things I really like about my e-scooter is I can fold it up and bring it in with me to a restaurant or my office or wherever else I am going. A bike I have to find a place to lock it and pra

Would the ideal form of this look substantially different from crunchbase? I’ve never used a Bloomberg terminal myself, is this suggesting something about the user experience or just having all the data centralized in one place?

“consumer variant of the 64-core EPYC” At nearly $4000 for just the CPU, is that still consumer territory? I assume only huge companies would spend that much money on a single CPU.

I agree in theory, but in practice taxis are significantly more expensive than even Uber. And you don’t know the price upfront. I don’t think I’ve ever had a taxi experience where I was happy with the value, at least in the USA.

But the pixels are (in my opinion) just such complete misses as phones. I’m not sure I’d want to use the latest Pixel if I got it for free, yet they charge an absurdly high price for it. I used to love my Nexus 4, and I liked my Nexus 5. It

I agree, but also “no disqualifying traits” is more valuable than you are giving it credit for. If you want to use the scarce signals available to judge the prospects of a very new startup, biasing for founders with no disqualifying traits
