What does it mean to be an 8-core GPU? 8-CPU I can understand. But I thought GPUs were supposed to have a lot more cores for parallelism.

Its pretty simple: GUI is more intuitive. I do not find them bizarre. Their diversity or bespokeness doesn't register as a hindrance to me. The options are visible all at once, or are a couple of clicks away. Contrast this with the com

Found the A"I" lol I believe it's supposed to be "No one is willing to, lol". In this case "lol" is describing what the writer is feeling about this statement, not what the objects of his writing are doing

That is something I do not care about it enough to dissuade me from the rest of the windows experience. Even accounting for it, the windows experience is still superior to linux for me. I suspect this applies to a big chunk of the populatio

Looking at the website, I cannot fully understand how it works. Is it somewhere between BitTorrnet (peer2peer content sharing) and Mastodon (decentralized social network)? How does monetization work?

This project is closed beta, so I am guessing here, but couldn't this also be used to de-anonymize users like with Google forms? I think it comes down to trust. Trust that the platform is not complicit with the feedback organizer. I s

How would you compare it to a Google form with notifications enabled for new submissions? For Google forms, they are: - anonymous - free - data can be exported (google sheets, excel, csv) - customizable (text, choices etc.)

Perhaps a tangent: I wonder about the true utility and longevity of a project that advertises itself foremost based on the language it is written in, when that should never matter to the consumer. It comes across as a hobby project or a por

I agree, but for the reason that going to 0.15 from 14 wouldn't make sense. I believe the master, v14.x, and v15.x branches are diverging anyways, each with their own development. They snapshot the master branch at some times into a ne

There is a lot of justification for their choice of colors, fonts, and symbols. I wonder how much of that is after-the-fact excuses for why a focus group liked the design, versus motivating principles that guided the design choices in the f

If you have Windows (or linux), you can use DroidCam[1] to turn your Android (or iPhone) into a web cam. It can be over Wifi or USB. Very convenient. Also integrates with OBS for streaming etc. [1]: https://www.dev47apps.com/

PyOxidizer generates standalone binaries for python. It requires the rust (and optionally C) toolchain to be installed first. I think requiring another language development environment set up to package code is a big turn-off. A friendlier

I like Hugo. I've been using it since 0.17. I've forgotten if I found getting started with it easy or hard. But since then it has been a relatively smooth ride. No node or javascript baggage, fast build times, single executable -

Hugo is a single executable - it doesn't require any knowledge of Go itself. Granted, you have to be familiar with the templating syntax to add build-time logic to the website, but I believe that syntax is common across many other stat
