Would targeting Vulkan instead of CUDA help?

It was not really hard to adjust, but my experience made me attractive to other entrepreneur-gone-corporate people, so the group I landed it had a good, productivity-oriented mindset. The biggest issue, imo, with corporate work is everythin

I’m of a different opinion. There actually aren’t alternatives to fossil fuel and that’s why there isn’t broad support for the tax. A tax on fossil fuel would make everything more expensive with little recourse for alternatives. I bought an

You’ll notice nearly all of the west village ones are studios. My old apartment was like 600 sq ft and laid out really well with a fully separate bedroom, living room, and large kitchen. Nothing is those listings comes close. Just checked o

I paid $3.5k for a 1BR in the village in 2019, which was a very good deal at the time. Rents have increased dramatically since then. Maybe time to update your price model?

Because the energy density sucks. I bought an electric weed wacker today. I was very excited to use it. But I only got through 1/5 of what I needed to before the battery died. And now I’m still waiting for it to charge. An electric tra

Have you seen the runtypes library? It lets you specify your type using a syntax very similar to normal TS type syntax. It then provides parsers for that type that throws errors if the input doesn’t conform to the type. It’s very useful. If

By "most" definitions, "most" means more than half. So we're literally arguing over a single person.

If we assume intelligence is a normal distribution, then we can say half of the population is below average. I think it's fair to categorize half as most.

The median and average are equivalent in a normal distribution.

The surface of the earth is curved, but it’s also a 2 manifold so you can talk about “straight” lines.

Most people are objective dumb (i.e. less smart than the median/average) so this doesn’t surprise me.

I think this is more powerful than a simple exploration tool. It took the author a long time to find a query format that generated logo-like images. Once they had that part down, they were quickly able to iterate on their query to find an i

Rock climbers definitely check their phones, just fyi. Apparently the police check their phones in active shooter situations as well (see Uvalde shooting). If the crux of your argument is that because people check their phones while driving

How is checking your phone incongruous with being in a stressful situation? I was very stressed while my partner gave birth. I still checked my phone. And plenty of people walking check their phones. And those who walk and use their phone l

I don't think you're being genuine. Even if walking down the street was filled with personal peril (it's not, at least not the persistent peril of driving), you're still discounting the fact that making a mistake while d

Driving a car is a life or death situation where you’re engaged in a complex dance with many other people. The cognitive load isn’t even close.

What I love about this piece is that the author lays out a specific set of goals for their project. I find this is immensely helpful to do at the start of a project. I often have an idea that I think is cool but after writing down what I wa

Hmm not positive, but I don’t think you could use this while simultaneously guaranteeing communication was E2EE. If communication is mostly 1-1 you could directly connect peers without needing to send video / audio to a 3rd party.

I agree with everything you wrote, but you didn’t answer the question: what is the alternative?

How would you pay the rent for your home in your theoretical world without working a job? You’re paying to live no matter what. At least when you own something you have something to show for your labor. Also, I think there’s a lot of truth

Something about a monthly fee for basic functionality screams “low class” to me. It’s like the difference between renting and owning. “You don’t have enough money to buy outright, so you’re forced to pay for a basic thing in perpetuity.” Th

Are you sure? I thought chip cards worked using certificates signed by the card issuer. And transactions involved sending a nonce to be signed. Everything can be verified by the public key. I could totally be wrong though.

by atwood22 4y ago
Also chip cards don’t ever leak the CC number as part of the transaction. However, it seems like you could request a transaction for a different merchant?
