USGS suggests that this was a main earthquake of a series. I guess there was one mid march https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureI... This event is identified as the potential mainshock

> When was the last time you used Bard? So far, every time I use bard it gives me an incorrect answer. But I am happy with how fast it returns it, at least. I haven't had that problem with Bing chat (at least in the past few months)

I attended a seminar on the office binary file formats about 10 years ago at MS. The reason it was done was for performance reasons, including the wonky layout that made it quicker to save and read the file from slow media like floppy discs

For consumers, I'm not sure. But I know as part of cutting costs, Azure decided to start running servers on ARM instead of x64: https://www.techrepublic.com/article/windows-server-on-arm-m...

I agree! I particularly liked the one using a two-way plastic mirror and webcam, so that you can maintain eye contact when you're video calling someone. Similar principal to a teleprompter. https://www.youtube.com/watch

Yeah, I didn't understand and jumped straight to the comments to see if there was an easy explanation here. Guess I should have clicked "How?" at the top. https://4042302.org/how/

From what I can tell, it's written in Electron. I assume they did this so that they could share the code base between desktop (win/mac), ios/android/winphone, and web -- keeping the features sets the same on all platform

The readme on their github[1] says that Live Writer was originally part of an acquisition. I would guess that winforms may have already been in use when they acquired Onfolio. There may be other reasons as well, but I don't know what t
