I haven't known a time in my life, where not one or another acquaintance of mine liked to rant about the evils of "neoliberalism". Every single one of them had a different idea of what the term means. I've even heard an

The regex is a compressed representation which saves memory, and it's also likely to be quite a bit faster which saves cycles. I consider it a clever bit of optimisation.

I think it is, although you have to manually save the current image if you want to keep the changes you made. Which I find entirely reasonable. I also think that what gp is looking for is Scratch. IIRC it's a complete graphical Smallta

I have various folders mapped to RAM, like e.g. /var/tmp. This has many uses, as you said. E.g. sometimes even just downloading a video stream to disc creates a temporary file in the destination folder for every fragment. I just d

A few. First I tried "remote", in case that's a thing. Among the results was something in "Remse, Saxony, Germany". So, for a lark, I tried "Germany" and not one of the results in the preview box had &quot

In case you like feedback, it seems to me the typo-tolerant location search is a bit too tolerant. I can't see the hits in the preview because they get swamped out by tons of not-really-very-near misses.

Yep, this kind of meaning seems to have been in use until quite recently at least. The 1967 Movie "The Viking Queen" is about a fictitious eastern English queen during the time of Roman occuption. She's definitely not Norse,

Yeah, I believe the trick is to have a bunch of links for different utilities all pointing to the same executable, which then varies it's behaviour based on how it was called.

>The "new" dollars would be worth more, so the people at the top of the flow would have more advantages than those at the bottom. That's happening even now with inflation, even if the mechanism is less obvious. It's c

I agree, though "works" and "truth" sound a bit optimistic to me. Let's say you'll probably improve on the accuracy of your picture, if you take more different sides of the story into account.

On the risk of drawing the ire of our lisping friends, I find that I have more fun writing lisps than using them, at least unless I equip them with a syntax.

Or with uniform function call syntax result = A().B().C()

Agreed, I've got an Aura 15 as well a few years ago, and I consider it a good buy price/performance wise. I had originally ordered a different, slightly more expensive model, and had no trouble at all with customer service to send

I'm afraid I'll have to disagree. If anything, fiction is Eliezer's strong suit. I had a blast with HPMOR, it's the best Harry Potter book out there in my opinion. But perhaps he's better at long-form fan fiction th

Exactly, "causing a recession" is not the way to lower inflation, but merely a side-effect. Most of the resulting recession is not even real in a way, because the preceding economic expansion based on dirty-cheap money was not rea

It seems obvious that for symmetrical distributions, like the normal, winsorizing does not change the mean.

Heck, the power of Initial D is such that you can search for "eurobeat", select "Videos", and chances are you'll see a screen full of AE86es.

Maybe one could get f_clock a bit higher, but what would be the point comparing an overclocked CPU with one working at normal frequency?

I'm sorry, the original post was about the 7640U, which is indeed on 4nm. The 7950X, though, is on 5nm.

Bad comparison. It should look like this: Zen 4, AMD Ryzen 5 7640U, TSMC 4nm, Single Core GB6 Score 2340 Apple A17 Pro, TSMC 3nm, Single Core GB6 Score 2914

by _0ffh 3y ago
The A17 is already on the TSMC 3nm process, while the 7950X is on TSMC 4nm. If anything, the A17 has the advantage here and the real question is, where the AMD chip would land if it was produced with the same technology.
