What really matters is what percentage of the vacant units are on the rental market. For example in Toronto based on official statistics rental vacancy is 1.2%. 2011 census provides the rest of the required data: there were 1,112,929 privat

While still true it might not be for long: "advanced amateur" small formal SLRs with 36mpix @42bpp now start below $2000 and 24mpix @36bpp in the lower part of $500-1000 bracket. https://www.adorama.com/ipxk1.htm

Bits per pixel: A lot of small frame SLRs (your Canons and Nikons) offer 12 or 14 bits per channel for a combined 36 or 42 bits per pixel. Medium format digital backs now offer 16 bits per channel. Layer size: Layers add more data on top of

Some examples that can easily push you beyond 64 GB: - high resolution photo editing: when you start with a 80 mpix / 48 bit photo from a medium format camera pushing beyond 16 GB requires only a couple layers and a couple undo steps b

It's more of a rumor/gossip tech site with a reputation for immediately publishing almost anything you could put a click-baity title on. As a result it does look pro-AMD, because there is significantly more hype (the infamous hype

To be fair i3 being the lower end offering with just 2 cores isn't really competing against any of the server products Intel offers. Quad (and more) core i5 and i7 that do have near-equivalent Xeon parts do have ECC disabled.

I wish HQ CPUs were an option (quad not dual core) - I work primarily with compiled languages. I wish they ditched SATA option for m.2 only and used the extra space for more battery (or cooling for HQ cpu)

Tried using in production, failed really badly performance-wise (granted, it wasn't a good fit - cardinality was high). Replaced with PostgreSQL and I'm seeing 2+ orders of magnitude improvement on c4.large vs r4.8xlarge before..

This might be useful for consumer cards as well: a tiny (0.25-2x VRAM) compiled shader or texture cache could possibly help with the framerate dips (microstutters). I know that PCIe bandwidth is not really an issue and SSD latency is signif

Quite frankly I'm not surprised Wes is sour about how this was handled and the amount granted as bounty. It's very rare for a single vulnerability to grant you keys to the kingdom. If you check pwn2own vast majority of the hacks l

I am - that's how I know how long the surges lasted: by how long I had to wait for the 'surge ended' notification. This also means that all my surge time estimates are underestimating the actual length, since I've only s

This has not been my experience at all. Surges usually last between 10 and 30 minutes with an average closer to 30. The only thing I agree about with the author of the article is that the surge is highly predictable if you use some common s

There are a bunch of options for that with li-ions too. For example Qualcomm claims that 3300mAh battery gets to 60% in 30 minutes with Quick Charge 2.0. Granted, that's not 'a couple of minutes', but still quite amazing.

Those batteries have a lower energy density and power than the current li-ions, so you won't be seeing them in a phone, laptop or a car. At the same time they are significantly cheaper to make and durable, which might make them a good
