Unless your workloads are not very cache optimized like most games, then AMD's 3D V-cache CPUs take the lead.

Yeah I know. I don't care if it needs a bit of JS to bootstrap either. At some point it should get to a state where you can have a site with WASM and no JS required.

Your logic still needs to run JS code to change the DOM. You are indirectly relying on JS despite using WASM.

I've never used a Mac and agree that it is not intuitive. I can see that it is telling me to drag it into Applications but it doesn't explain why. The UAC prompt has some explanation to what is going on.

That's the one. Obviously not popular since I made it for an app I work on. What's wrong with decorators? Technically not needed but I like things being explicit.

For a bare object sure. Points 2 and 3 are solved with react-class-model. I don't understand how atoms compose nicely but classes wouldn't. Zustand looks a bit better but it is still very different from normal JS. Nobody writes co

I did Google it. Maybe it's changed more recently but shouldn't have ever been released like that. There's also concerns about PWAs on iOS in the EU. For a bit of time it was looking like you would no longer be able to add we

I don't think this actually reflects the new light/dark mode people are referring to here. It will most likely always be the default theme - light. Also changing those old themes has a good chance to "break" any (poorly

I don't understand Jotai. What are atoms and why is using atoms preferable over a normal JS class/object? With react-class-model I can keep my data and logic in a JS class and access it from React components with hooks.

I don't see how you can call it first-class when they don't support sound or vibration? Completely useless for anything that actually relies on push notifications.

If this was true then why is the only way to get proper push notifications in a PWA to deploy your app to the App Store in a web view?

State management is the worst part of React IMO. Basic things with `useState` aren't too bad but as soon as things get a bit more complex you need to reach for a separate library to make it easier. Unfortunately all of the popular opti

I wouldn't consider iPadOS different from iOS. They realistically share 99% or more of their code with each other and just lock down features because of hardware/form factor differences. You also left out watchOS which is based on

Could just show "Apple transaction fees" as a separate line item instead of just the total. Everyone should be more accustomed to that than a possibly sketchy looking message.

V-cache is just L3 which is shared between cores. L1 and L2 are still within each core.

The latest Windows 11 is actually in a good state now for settings. Still took them unreasonably long to get here but I haven't needed to go into the old control panel in a long time.

Nothing wrong with prioritizing one platform. It's just presented in a strange way on the website which suggests to me that it will only ever work on Mac.

The software being exclusive to Mac is apparently a feature in this case.

It's especially bad in Unity because it's using the Boehm garbage collector. C# everywhere else has a performant generational GC. Unity have been working on this problem for years now trying to get the engine to work with .NET (Co

It's harder to confirm for laptops but you can refer to motherboard manuals to see if any of your PCIe-related slots go through a switch or not. For example, my current PC has a PCIe x16 slot, x1 slot, and two M.2 NVMe slots. It says e

Yeah but some people need to justify their $1,800 USD purchase of laptop that comes with only 8 GB of RAM. Even though most laptops manufactured today would also come with NVMe (PCIe directly connected to the CPU, usually) flash storage, wh

How old was the new CPU though? Probably the same or similar generation to what it originally came with since the socket needs to be the same. IMO the switch to an SSD would have been the biggest boost.

I never bothered to check if they had replaceable WiFi modules but that's a good point. They could just have crappy modules included.

I don't have a compatible device but I'm curious how the pricing works. Does it work like a subscription where you pay monthly for unlimited runs per month? Or do you just need to pay for enough runs and buy more if you run out?

I've bought/set up at least ten of these cheap mini PCs (~$200) over the years and at least half of them had their built-in WiFi just stop working after some time. Something to be aware of if you're not going to be using it w

Yoga is great but only really supports flexbox. For most cases that can be enough but inline content (as shown in the Dropflow demo) is difficult with only flexbox layouts available.

You should avoid getting yourself into situations like this. Why is your PR blocking anything if it's pending for one day? It's not just communication which needs to be async but the work itself should be too. Nobody should be stu
