I think OP’s point was that it would do more than 2-3x the workload, thus them stating “blow it out of the water” and specifying “performance-per-watt”.

The CWP is designed for robustness, on top of delivery. Those aqueducts you're pointing to that feed into the municipal portion of the Inland Empire are frequently empty because the IE has it's own (mostly) self-sufficient water s

They can try to set whatever precedent they like. But US courts won't accept the argument, so it'll just stay a fee that accumulates on some paper ledger.

UTC-3 seems like a weird limit. UTC-2 and UTC-3 are basically just ocean. So the only real places that qualify are Buenos Aires and Coastal Brazil. Also, not sure what the point of requiring that even is. There are plenty of candidates that

Yes, but not at the cost of the construction of an Aircraft Carrier. This is why the military uses "operational costs" (fuel, munitions, activated duty pay, equipment losses, etc) to factor the cost, not the total amount of every

It's the js that does it, because so many webpages are terribly optimized to integrate aggressive ad waterfalls into them. Or have persistent SPA framework's doing continually scope checks. That being said, there's no reason

The US does 65% of China's manufacturing capacity at 25% their population. They are doing fine.

Incorrect. To reiterate, the closest near competitor below it does ~30% what the US does; and it only goes down from there. And, compared to China, they are doing 65% of their manufacturing capacity at 25% of their population. The US is d

Your entire blurb doesn't prove an inaccuracy, it simply shows that China has diversified it's manufacturing beyond low-end manufacturing. I never claimed that they did not do high-end manufacturing.

This is the part that blows my mind. People seem to think the US is incapable of and does no manufacturing. It is the second largest manufacturer[1], and has a capacity about 65% of what China does. Which is 350% of the next largest manufac

Each port is also tagged with the exact project they're coming from and the source. It's not exactly a secret, they just don't have a vanity page.

Yeah, agreed. Watching it as a drama, it’s fun. Watching it with any perspective on tech history it gets a little cringy. The first season is semi-accurate if you just replace Compaq with their company. But it quickly goes off the rails.

It’s not cancelled, there’s a fourth season on the way. But yes, him and Jared Harris are pretty much the primary reasons to watch. And given the limited Harris screentime, definitely Pace carries it.

I mean yeah, Chrome and Firefox both run on Linux. And that covers 99% of what most "normies" need. It's funny when people say Linux is difficult for their grandparents or siblings, when that's the place it covers best.

Just to add to this: intentional/digital blur is even easier to undo as the source image is still mostly there. You just have to find the inverse metric. This is how one of the more notorious pedophiles[1] was caught[2]. 1 - https:&#x

Did you just use a Gen 8 (3DS/Switch, PS4, Xbox One) game to make a point about SNES gameplay? Did you intentionally miss the point or are you attempting to obfuscate it? Obviously a game for modern consoles is going to be far more a

I love DQ. My point wasn’t that they were bad RPGs. Simply that they don’t fit within OP’s point. Most of them could just as easily be NES/SMS games with slightly tuned down graphics; they don’t push the SNES in any meaningful way. As

The Dragon Quest series, while beloved, is hardly the epitome of peak SNES gaming. It’s always been (purposefully) extremely conservative and dated in its design. If you’re gonna go for quality SNES RPGs that show the console shining, you’d

You’re posting an argument from 6 years ago. Not including Steam OS, the Linux market share has almost quadrupled since then (to ~3.2%); including Steam OS, it’s up to ~24%. And continues to trend upwards. You also don’t need to arbitrarily

That was the argument used for IE/Edge. But eventually it got so terrible that the first thing everyone does now is install Chrome/Firefox/Brave. They obviously have an advantage, but it’s not insurmountable to being garbage.

Windows 95 was Microsoft's biggest commercial hit at that point. Selling 40m copies in its first year. There's no doubt that it went in to upgrade plenty of 386s/486s until the owners upgraded their hardware.

Definitely disagree. It can regurgitate solved problems from open source codebases, sure. Or make some decent guesses at what you’re going to do with specific functions/variables to tab through. But as soon as you ask it to do somethin
