I have an AMD Ryzen 5900X and it is nearly the same in single core and much faster multi-core (12 core). So I don't think it's accurate to say that x86 needs 4x the silicon just it match the M1.

The vast majority of developers will never even see assembly for x86 or ARM. Compiler developers and those need to hand optimize code may care but for everyone else it's a black box.

JavaScript today wouldn't be recognizable to a JavaScript developer 6 years ago, especially when using class syntax, destructing, and async/await, among many other syntax additions.

Fake shutters are a way to provide accent colors on the house. Without them in this picture the wall would simply be one solid color. With them, you end up with a pop of color around the windows which adds some aesthetic value.

No, because the changes would have been many small incremental changes, each of which is easier to validate on it's own. It's the sun of those dozens of update all at once that creates the problem.

An unfortunate side-effect of this type of system, in my experience, is that you end up being stuck on very old dependencies for a very long time. When a security issue is discovered, perhaps months or years later, it is extremely difficult

People don't do this because `node_modules` can be absolutely massive (hundreds of megabytes or more), and a lot of people don't like (for various reasons) such large repositories. There is a deprecated project at my work that com

I had (probably still at my parent's house) a Commodore cassette deck, 2 1541s and a 1571. All modded of course. I remember using the cassette deck but it was definitely a stop gap to a real disk drive.

On my Android phone this website is just a title and blank. It feels a bit ironic.

I haven't read it but "smart" isn't some universal trait. One can be "smart" in one area and really dumb in another. I don't understand how someone can be a good chef. You can be great at that, intuitively

My son's Chromebook runs Android apps and he uses a bunch of them from games to tools.

Nitpick: it wasn't a compatibility layer. It was actually Windows 3.1 running in DOS. There was no emulation.

My wife and kids touch their screens all the time. I often reach over my wife's shoulder and tap a button or something on the screen rather than reaching for the trackpad. It may not be that useful for your particular use case but that

Most of if not an of those components are reusable, such as case, power supply, monitors, peripherals, RAM, etc. In my case I'm reusing everything and just upgrading the CPU for $560. The end result will be similar or better performanc

Exactly. For me, I can upgrade my existing desktop by spending $560 on a Ryzen 5900X. I have all the other parts so there's no additional cost. I also don't need portability nor a fancy display because I use all external monitors

Do we know of the M1 Max in the MacBook can sustain this level of performance without thermal throttling? Mobile phones often have this issue where the benchmark looks gear until you run it for 15 minutes and the thermal throttling kicks in

I'm not a fan either. In my opinion to do monorepos right you have to have a lot of tooling to handle all the special cases and scenarios and small teams just don't have the bandwidth so they use off the shelf tools that force the

We do take home tests and I find them valuable. We do, however ask them to host it somewhere to be used. 1) we want the time investment to be <4 hours 2) the test uses public APIs and is directly related to our work (crypto) 3) we had th

This. I've been thinking about this for a while. In economics we talk about externalities, or costs tht are burdened by society but not the producer, making prices artificially low. I would love to see some mechanism in place to make s

Thank you for the very insightful accounting perspective. I have a hard time understanding all the complexities of modern account and how a "loss" isn't always a loss. On a side note, I'm a very happy Backblaze customer

This is hardly the most offensive comedic content around. In my experience it's actually harder to find less offensive comedy than very offensive comedy. Ever wonder why "clean" comics are so rare? Comedy is offensive by it&#

> expecting your employer to pay you to undermine them. I could be wrong. This is a good point. There's likely a huge amount of content on Netflix that offends a lot of different people and groups. It's your choice to not watch

The biggest problem with using the English word "God" is it is loaded with assumptions, beliefs, and huge variability from one person to another. Just uttering the word "God" to someone will create an entirely different
