Not to mention that a lot of these public 'debates' about topics unfairly give time and energy to perspectives which do not deserve them. For example, 99% of climate scientists agree that climate change is real and human-caused, b

Yeah, imagine if you could install a different operating system on your Mac! What a world that would be! Worth noting that this is a dig against the other consoles which do not allow this, not Apple who (in part) does.

The biggest complaint about the PS5 is that it stood out too much. That's the one compelling point about the Xbox Series series designs - they don't look out of place in your entertainment centre. This is the same - you can put it

The XBox Series X and PS5 both have 16 GB of RAM; in the case of the XSX that's 10 GB for the GPU and 6 GB for the OS and apps. So 16 GB in this case, for running the same games and outputting to the same displays, seems entirely reaso

Your assertion seems to imply that there will be a point of no return where users are no longer able to stop buying apple hardware to run the software they want, and that therefore people should do so now. If that's not what you'r

After having used it two weeks ago for the first time: it feels as though async support in Python is basically a completely parallel standard library that uses the same python syntax with extra keywords all over the place. It's like if

To be clear: libuv has had the ability to offload (some?) I/O operators to io_uring since v1.45.0, from 2023, and that's the 8x speed improvement. 2024 is when node.js seemed to enable (or rather, stop disabling) io_uring by defau

Depending on the project, doing a re-release with an appended or updated version number might be a huge hassle. For a small, single-binary program run by an agile team it's pretty trivial to recall a release and publish a replacement,

We've had a few issues in the past where a file wasn't updated during the release process, requiring us to re-publish one small change. It's not optimal, but given the nature of our release process being long and complex it&#

The explanation that I think wasn't entirely clear in the post is how it actually works/why that's better. From what I can tell, the situation is this: 1. You have a host behind NAT 2. That NAT will not allow you to open port
