Of course greenfield has been a term for a long time, but how long has it been used to describe software projects? I'd think a lot less than that.

That's what's always tripped me up learning VHDL. I still don't really like it.

It does make sense: The average was low enough that a 20TB cap worked. Then marketing started boasting about the 20TB limit and attracted a bunch of high-bandwith customers, thereby driving up the average making 20TB decidedly "not fin

Alternatively, there are now much more efficient bulbs available. If they're passing A under the new EU Energy Label (from 2021) they'll barely be warm to the touch.

That's interesting, I'm getting SSL_ERROR_NO_CYPHER_OVERLAP in Firefox. And ssllabs.com can't even test the site apparently. I wonder it those those are connected somehow.

You're forgetting the third dimension, which comes in at 4.7mm. That indeed makes the CM5 much larger at multiple times the volume - if you want to be pedantic that is.

I'm always astounded how little people know about this, but you need to get an Application Class rated card, preferably A2. [1] The application rating essentially ensures a certain minimum IOPS performance, which is critical because m

The Zero 2W has much better availability and at $15 it should still be cheap enough to essentially be a no-brainer if specs fit your needs.

Well, except for the Play Integrity API (formerly SafetyNet). As soon as you do anything remotely interesting you can't use NFC payments, your bank or even the McDonalds app anymore. This notably doesn't even achieve it's sup

Well, how do you "track something down" when it isn't provided through official channels?

It's more like asking for mandatory seatbelts in a world where most people are completely immune to any kind of car crash and will not get so much as a scratch from any kind of collision.

On my laptop the same thing happens, but only with one particular power supply connected. The noise itself definitely comes from the laptop though.

Those 'real developers' you're talking about wouldn't stand for the overhead of a kernel either

Honestly, no. Prior to 2009 there were almost no 720p videos on the platform. In 2009 Windows 7 came out with a minimum requirement of 1GB RAM (Vista in 2007 also already recommended 1GB). What I'm trying to say is, 1GB wasn't muc

Are you seriously complaining right now that systemd doesn't have a specific feature no other init for linux has either, while at the same time complaining it is too complicated and does too much stuff?

Using something that's already been produced (good) is not the same as selling dead end e-waste that's so underspecced it's barely working new (bad).

That thing was overstaying it's welcome for two years even then by staying on WiFi 4. 802.11n was adopted 15 years ago.

Okay so keep your current ones, and mainly use the induction one for which will probably satisfy upwards of 80% of your needs anyway.

You might be able to match-make between clients with similar latency and then "enforce" that latency server side by delaying things that "happen faster" then the previously measured latency

I still don't get it. Is it 500MW averaged over the _whole_ year including nights, or 500MWp?

Texas running it's own grid isn't that bad because Texas is too small, it's mostly just bad because it's criminally underfunded and underregulated.
