I use the original TV remote to navigate the AppleTV menus, it works by HDMI-CEC. Its amusing to me that this new appleremote is very similar to a traditional TV remote.

The reason Java is so disliked is because new developers first contact with it is maintenance programming on the horrible J2EE/Spring monstrosity that has evolved since 2005, or from even earlier.

There are ways to measure picture quality in unbiased way. I think this put it nicely: "However, it is important to emphasize that with calibration we use industry standards as goals. When a TV is told to reproduce a certain shade of p

I wish TVs could compete on Picture quality, how quickly it turns on and off, how sleek and minimalistic UI it has for picture settings. But sadly this is not the world we live in.

One interesting problem in this space is how to extract the actual article content from webpages without all the "fluff". PDFs with navigation menus and ads don't look so nice. I have been experimenting with Mozillas JavaScri

Some games surely has lost sales due to piracy. Recent example: Doom Eternal was shipped with an unencrypted exe in a subfolder by mistake. Surely lots of people that would have impulse bought the hot new game didn't when it could be t

GoTek external floppy drive emulator is the easiest and cheapest way to get files of your old Amiga floppies, assuming you have a working Amiga. If you dont have working Amiga it gets more expensive and/or complicated.

Would GUI programs be possible with this? I don't mean some cross platform framework monstrosity. But if some least common denominator was found to be able to create window, add some input fields and buttons using the native UI element

I understand the constraints of this project and why they had to use LCDs. But using an LCD will be sort of like printing an old painting by one of the masters on cheap paper using a laser printer and displaying it as the real thing. I wis

The source format stored with the assembly source code was often a .raw file. I guess it's an uncompressed file with per pixel color values that was included directly in the asm.

I had no idea these were painted. Have always assumed it was colored plastic like in the C64s and Amigas.

How is it possible that a RISC ISA can be nice to program for in Assembly? Wasn't PPC horrible for this for example? Wasn't the point of CISC to make it easier for Assembly programmers (made sense when x86 and 68k was defined)

Flagship iPhone absolutely crushes any flagship Android phone in benchmarks its not even close. Has been like this for many years. It is also very common that people that like Android are not aware of this for some reason.

Isn't the point to be able to produce more performance at lower clock speeds, using OOB execution, paralellism, to use less energy and produce less heat? Since there is an upper bound of clock speeds that can be done at room temperatur

I would bet it is just metal sheets cut to size and then riveted or screwed together on site, then filled with rocks for stability. Metal sheets could be carried there, hole dug out and then assembled by 1 person basically.
