That's irrelevant to that claim being true or not. The fact that M series win in power efficiency is already addressed.

No "going nuclear" there. A human and emotional reaction I think many here can relate to. BTW I think it's preferred to link directly to the content instead of a screenshot on imgur.

Maybe you are not as good a judge of difficulty of what you are proposing and others competence as you believe.

How would you determine or estimate "age of email"? It isn't really public info. Does it imply that you are by now expected to be doxxed by data brokers to not be judged suspicious? > I’m sure you’re fine if your email is

Not each sentence but I do regularly pause and sometimes skip back in audiobooks, yes.

FWIW if you buy new from Lenovo, getting a more high-res display has been an option for years. I'm on the other side where I've been buying Thinkpads partly because of the display. Thinkpads have for a long time been one of the fe

50/50 you have either ImageMagick or ffmpeg installed already.

I haven't done it myself but know a few people who did. They were all on the academic track and just made it happen and supporting their respective labs as postdocs. With an allowing or aligned professor I think it's very relistic

Since it's not done via CSS here, I suggest not copying the existing approach directly but recreating the same effect using CSS only. If you look in the DOM tree / source like I proposed, you see that the list is already a table,

What do you mean with "copy the css"? Do you want to style your own website the same way? Or use a similar theme for HN itself year-round? To figure out where styles come from, open Developer Tools in your browser and Inspect Elem

How can you believe it when the "code" has never been runnable?

Strange hill. Police is a protected title but anyone can be a thought police. One can be a spin doctor without any academic acumen. Notice how when qualified, the words take on a broader and sometimes illustrative meaning than when used in

It sounds like you are agreeing - that digging into the existing layers can be a good idea that is often neglected or resisted to a fault. That we should treat existing software less like black boxes. There are caveats here too of course -

I concede I had a bit of second thoughts after posting the comment you replied to. After all, hindsight is 20/20 and at the end of the day a major part of our work is making (appropriate) abstractions. Picking good terminology is somet

A good start would be government officials and institutions to stop relying on and promoting (on) them. Ministers in office shouldn't be using them to communicate with their constituents. Public service broadcasters shouldn't be p

No it is not open source and on GitHub. I think it is fair to call that repo fake. It is not even runnable code.

Neither. It's an implementation of the interface in question.

by baobun 10mo ago
If you look above the unorthodox library/framework distinction, I think the criticism is about birthing new (inadvertently leaky) abstraction layers with new semantics to capture the specifics of the domain. Often with either esoteric

This pain point being a common thing is mostly specific to Manjaro. Much more stable experience on any of the major vanilla distros.

The same reason starving children in Sudan rarely make the news: It's "business as usual". Systemic issues make poor clickbait.

It goes all the way back to tapes, was still important for CDs, and still thought relevant for HDDs. Basically you can get much better read performance if you can read everything sequentially and you want to avoid random access at all costs

Thanks for following up. Food for thought: Rather than nitpick on people who apparently use the word in earnest in its actual meaning and thereby conceding that those policies are actually "taking your privacy seriously", renderin

I still don't see how lockfiles can't be SBOM. They contain for each dependency name, version, (derivable) URL and integrity checksum, plus of course the intra-dependency relationships. This can all be verified at any point in the
