Where did you check that? If you're talking about Wasm with Emscripten, yes there's a cost of loading the runtime because Emscripten comes bundled with a lot of stuff. I'm skeptical that just wasm itself was slower or heavier

Why would you hope this kills reddit? Wtf is wrong with you to think that a company charging for access to their resources warrants it being destroyed? They seem to be acting in good faith and giving people plenty of heads up. If the pricin

Goddammit, I had no idea Amazon owned Book Depository. Their service was great and it was the best way I had to buy technical books when i lived in Brazil.

For a while, but not the case anymore. They seem keen on having a diverse set of offerings, with some EV and hybrid cars. Yet the criticism continues

You're right, but you see more and more countries forcing data locality requirements. EU user data can't be stored in the US. India also tried to push for data locality (though I think they went back on that)

Please share that article if you can find it. Sounds like an interesting take! I honestly don't get the criticism Toyota has been getting recently. I think their decision to not go all in on just electric vehicles makes sense, especial

I don't get the point of this article. All it did was cover some C standard library functions and say that what a GC does is manage the memory lifecycle in languages like Python. What did other people take from this?

I think it varies a lot from university to university (plus they are very young people). But generally, since moving to Europe, I see that a lot of new grads don’t have that foundational knowledge as you mention. I’ve even had other colleag

The point is not covering the banks though. The point is covering the people that deposited money with them. In this case the bank shareholders should take the hit and not be bailed out at all. I'm on the side that the depositors got s

I don't know how we can remove that point of failure though. Although we don't think about it, banks fail and are designed to do so. We just try to reduce the chances of that happening.

I reckon this is Meta finally getting it in their heads that mass adoption is only gonna happen if the device is cheap enough. John Carmack was very vocal about that when he was still involved with Meta. I’d bet Meta’s best chance of winnin

Fascinating read, even if not very technical. That type of deep work must be a joy to do. Wonder if there are still places where one might get a chance to work like that, specifically on “low level” stuff

Of course the business owner will potentially benefit more from your increased productivity. And they should match your productivity increase by rewarding merit and compensating you for that. If you're in a work environment that reward

The fact you buy it is irrelevant. I buy them too, but if the sales don’t justify the ROI no company is gonna bother with it.

While I enjoy smaller phones, it makes no sense to have high end smaller phones. It doesn’t sell. Just look at Apple’s sales and their cancellation of the mini. I’d love it to be the opposite so I didn’t have to hold on to my iphone 12 mini

I am highly skeptical that computer games and porn addictions are significant factors here. Sure they are problems that need to be solved, but I doubt it is a significant contribution to the problem. I can see how social media might bias pe

Of course there are plenty of reasons not to move to android. If you're used to Apple's ecosystem (laptop, tablet), your family also uses apple devices, etc it is not convenient to move to a platform that doesn't have all of

Why shouldn’t he complain about it though? If nobody complains there’s no chance things will change. Sure people could vote with their feet, but not everyone is willing to do that. They should still be allowed to ask for improvements.

Not too surprising more lay offs are coming. I joined Facebook in 2017 and they had around 40k people (left in 2020). By 2022 they had 80k. I met with my first manager (he’s a director now) at FB a few weeks after the lay offs were announce

I found Ted Chiang's explanation of what ChatGPT is at the moment fascinating. I really liked the analogy as a way of explaining to non-tech folks.

If you're worried about "total bank surveillance" (which seems to be most people in this thread), don't. Every single bank you have an account with already has to keep track of know-your-customer information. It's n

I just realised I mistyped: SFR is stimulus-to-fatigue ratio, not signal-to-fatigue ratio. Guess I had too many meetings talking about observability today lol

I’d say the belt stuff is more likely due to stability. Your nervous system limits power output when your body is not stable. That’s why bozo ball squats are just freaking dumb But the belt totally helps with lower back fatigue for sure!

Like voytec said, 4-8%. Though i’s argue it’a likely in the higher end for naturals. It’s not sustainable and it’s definitely not healthy for long periods. That’s why we do it only in contest season. You do your shows and get back to someth

People associate carbs as a prerequisite for getting shredded (like grandparent). It’s not. It’s just a way that works well and at some point you will have to cut the carbs because there’s nothing else to cut.
