And they’re now going to hit each drop three! times instead of two, and increase to 100,000 drops per second. Very hard to imagine.

As a former student using Chomebooks in Highschool (9-12), a K-8 laptop is a major “ew”. Paper textbooks have tactile reality, room for exploring/reading out of order. Paper exams you can skip around the questions easily, and if the te

I tried searching "SSE2-4.x" and this is the top result in DDG and Google, so I was initially confused what instruction set the article is referring to. However, this appears to be shorthand for SSE2 through SSE4? Perhaps a rephra

But it isn't just a brain-teaser. If the LLM is supposed to control say Google Maps, then Maps is the one asking "walk or drive" with the API. So I voice-ask the assistant to take me to the car wash, it should realize it shou

If rent or business taxes go up, the business may either eat the cost or eventually raise the main price, they don’t tack a “rent offset fee” on the final bill. But with tariffs, up to a point the business dgaf because they just pass it thr

That’s part of the FDA scrutiny, it’s likely the Hims/Hers pills wouldn’t have much bioavailability, yet marketed as “same active ingredient”.

Slightly more nuanced, I think we no longer have domestic industries making the components for the machines that make stuff. Many machine shops have Haas mills, but lots of Haas's suppliers are overseas. Regarding injection molding, we

I appreciate that the software and updates are made "free" to me, and it may be their right to disallow "downgrades" and have time-limited windows for redemption. However, as a developer for their platform, it is quite f

I was actually going to comment on the main post, how well tuned the AI seems with it's placement of random electrical wires and junction boxes that seem to match my impression of renderings-vs-reality.

I take bigger offense to the message that says "your emails were returned undelivered", because that is a lie. A bank, sent to a customer, a lie. "Scale" should never be an acceptable excuse but somehow we let it slide w

Not all PFAS are the same. PTFE is a large-chain molecule that does not break down into the harmful small water-soluble PFAS's for the usecases I listed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polytetrafluoroethylene

As an alternative for better lubrication of two-metals-rubbing together (door hinges, simple tools, etc) I use Tri-Flow because it has PTFE that stays as a white powder. If you have a stuck bolt, PBBlaster wicks into the threads better. And

The newer phosphor-coated "filament" LED's also have this "inertia" which is nice. And no other electronics to fail also since they are just series-connected LED's.

In college I tried to participate in a rubber-hand-illusion while wearing an EEG, but the stimulation was done by the researcher manually and I never felt the illusion. This does show an interesting twist, using a robot arm for repeated and

I'm a crazy person who reads game credits at the end, and whenever I read about "location scouts" I usually think "oh look, an executive's family took a vacation".

I dislike that an executive is quoted as blaming "rising development costs", essentially blaming the workers/salaries, with no rebuttal. This is especially suspect with the timing of closing an office that just unionized. It

140,000 miles is a lot of use in 7 years. "expected" design life of cars can be 10yrs/100,000 miles. Sorry to hear about your drivetrain issues. I don't know about the Tucson in particular, but many manufacturers are lyi

When your LED brake light goes out, you have to purchase an entire assembly as the LED's are part of the PCB. There are no "bulbs" for a few dollars. And with the matrix LED's a few may go out, now your brake light &quot

What they want is the app to pay for ads placement for their own app, to have to out-bid the competition.

It’s sad that I can’t interpret if you mean to actually shoot your rap video on film, or have an AI generate it lol. Either way you’re going to need RAM.

I recall they were offering a few people mail-in swabs to test if the colonization had taken hold, but haven’t read any follow-up.

This is a good example of “not fixing the whole problem”. Once a “fake” mineral was discovered, a good idea would have been to demand an expert reviews the entire list.

This is not good to hear, at my work we have the production technicians activate the occasional Windows 7 PC via the phone. We do it this way as these are specialized embedded PC’s that won’t connect to the internet. Flippant comments to “j

I apologize, I misread your comment as “complex databases”. PowerApps could make simple queries across large databases, but you’re right that large software projects should not be in a no-code tool.

Many small businesses (and small teams inside large orgs) do not have “servers” in the sense that an employee can push code to it. It’s just Windows Server and handles email, file share, ERP, etc. I think those in the tech industry may not
