The problem with Epic is that they seem to refuse to deal with their technical debt. As far as I know, it's still some janky visualbasic UI with a M/UMPS backend (well w/ a modernization wrapper). And why change because hos

I think one underlying current is market prediction - i.e. if CATL's solution is more widely available as a supplier to the larger market, will they eventually "TSMC" Tesla's battery tech?

VLC basically. Or Plex if you have an apple TV. I usually transcode using Don Melton's other-video-transcoding ruby gem, albeit I think doing it on my PC w/ nvidia card seems to yield more consistent quality vs. the Apple Silicon

Honestly, from my experiences in medical school, cadavers smell strongly like formaldehyde, and all the tissues are brown, atrophied, and hard to distinguish. I remember realizing my understanding of anatomy (at least abdominal) increased

How are they getting color? My impression is CT scan is mostly measuring density and x-ray absorption. Are they doing false color based on some sort of data (vs photoshop?)

Yes but she said life is nicer somehow using the iPad. Maybe she can do the same on the laptop but she also has a nice garden she likes to do her work in, vs the iMac is my understanding

Honestly, I think it's crowd hysteria re the hate for the Apple remotes. They've been perfectly fine for me. When I think of flaming pieces of poo, my Samsung button-ey remote and the Firestick one that needs new batteries every

MB failures were a thing back in the oughts; I think it was some new mandated lead free environmentally friendly solder used at the time in the BGA slots for their GPUs and at least some CPUs...granted, they either replaced the MB or the en

Would that inherently limits the customers/market though? The fps above all crowd would be happy but I would bet there's addressable people who would want 4080 performance in a small case that's relatively silent?
