Even as somebody who uses AI every day and has integrated it in useful ways, I don't see how the rise of the AI industry can be anything other than terrifying. It signals the rise of a new feudal system. Couple that with the rolling ba

Are you suggesting that all the scientists studying microplastics and papers about microplastics are just grifting for the health and wellness industry? Also, are you suggesting that a pharma company like Philip Morris, with a yearly revenu

It's on the publisher and owner to guide studios in a direction that makes money. That's literally their purpose. If these studios aren't releasing anything and they aren't making money, that's on Microsoft. So thin

This is the most frustrating part. You do everything you can to ensure there are clear instructions, you can keep the agent MD as concise and clear and short as possible. It still feels like it's all just a suggestion, and of course it

If you don't think the EU and European governments are sweeping the same shit under the rug, I have a bridge to sell you.

You think the European wealthy are innocent of pedophilia? What about Prince Andrew? This goes far beyond just the current US administration.

Why don't you research past heat waves? We're literally setting new heat records nearly every year. This year the heat record in Germany went from 39 degrees to 42. We're even setting night time heat records because of how ba

That's unfair. I'm going unfairly called out even though I stand by my beliefs and I'm only trying to defend myself. How are the replies to my comments in any way acceptable and according to HN guidelines??? "Put your mo

The problem is doing it as a company. IBM wasn't defeated by hobbyists building their own PCs. They were defeated by other companies reverse engineering their BIOS and selling their own IBM compatible systems. This isn't possible

The assumption back then was that other companies would be making shows. Consolidating even more show production in one company is not something we should want.

Why would anybody buy it? This is a bad sign for consumer memory in general. It's more likely we're going to see more exits from this segment instead.

I think we can all agree that performance is often an afterthought to game developers, particular in bigger productions, but HD2 is sort of a bad example for that.

I miss the days when I could start Pidgin and it'd automatically log into every single service I use, and I could chat with anybody regardless of which service they were on. I didn't need half a dozen different apps running just t

I'm wondering for what purpose one would be interested in finding out if a site is hosted in Iran or not.

EDAC is a general term for an error detection and correction system. It can encompass ECC memory or other solutions. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S01419...

Probably no different than current drives? Who would pay more for worse drives? Particularly in enterprise, where defect rates and error rates make a much bigger difference and quickly add up across such a large number of drives.

You clearly haven't met a lot of your average PC or phone user then. Most people don't care about getting the newest and best thing. If a thing still works, they'll use it until it doesn't anymore, however long that is.

Somebody I know had asthma while she lived in Jakarta. It went away when she moved to Europe. I really liked Jakarta, but the air quality is one of the reasons why I won't go back again.

At the very least, you can usually still get the data off of them. Most SSDs I've encountered with defects failed catastrophically, rendering the data completely inaccessible.

Any given TBW/DWPD values are irrelevant for unpowered data retention. Afaik, nobody gives these values in their datasheet and I'm wondering where their numbers are from, because I've never seen anything official. At this poi

It's crazy how good the writing in that game is and how applicable it is today. It makes me wonder who wrote it and what their influences were.

The license renewal has nothing to do with anything. It's not related to the incident where its existence was revealed. This is about "secret" vs "unpublicized", not "secret" vs "license renewal"

Seems like a distinction without a difference to me? > And aside from a license renewal snafu in 1980, the device made no waves until its existence was shared with the local newspaper—it wasn’t a secret, just unpublicized.
