For a counterpoint, I thought wattsupwiththat's analysis was alright. But I'm not qualified enough to make a definitive judgment. Can somebody better informed tell me if this article is complete bull? https://wattsupwit

I developed a Tinnitus many years ago because of an SSRI. It bugged me for years until I found out about Bacopa. I started taking Bacopa every morning, and 3 weeks later my tinnitus was so low that I forgot it was there. Today I still have

There was a time when many within the AI community thought that every problem could be solved using neural nets, tuning and lots of training. Elon truly believed them, and believed himself that if you trained a large enough network on trip

And there's one thing that really bugs me: in the new Win11 build 22H2 - supposed to let you regulate how much power each process is allowed to use through the 'economy' feature of Task Manager - Teams seems to be amongst few

Thanks so much for making this! I've always had problems sending to my Kindle from different systems. It's a good thing you're not using the MOBI format since Amazon is retiring it. Cheers!

If money is no object, Xojo fits the bill. Native UI, cross-platform Win/Linux/MacOS/iOS/Web and soon Android. Simple language, LLVM performance and lots of libraries. In the free world, I'd say Racket is the next b

That is genuinely the most impressive thing I've seen come out of GPT-3. Granted, I haven't played with it much, but wow. Thanks for posting this.

Hey there I've had the same problem for years in my 30's. After having tried everything from sports, doctors, to psychiatrists and their terrible drugs, I decided to research the sh*t out of it, which is what I do for everything I

This device looks like a mash-up of a Commodore 64, a typewriter and a spectrum analyser. I love it. I'm just wondering: who would want to develop things comfortably on such a device?

My Lenovo X1 Carbon gen 9 has a 14" screen with a resolution of 3840x2400 (16:10 ratio). This comes to 323.45 PPI, way, way beyond retina. In fact it's more 'retina' than any of my Apple gear.

I really, really wanted to like Julia. The syntax looked perfect to me (coming from scheme), and somehow everything felt 'right'. That's when I discovered that compiling to binary seemed to be frowned upon. I found some docum

After 30-some years in the field, here are my observations: If it works absolutely perfect in pre-prod, there's a 50% chance it'll fail in prod. Half the time there's a variable unaccounted for. If it works well in pre-prod b

I'm working for two clients at this time. One of them is absolutely awesome, but pays very little (media prod). The other one pays top dollar but is terrible (used computer business - booooring). If only I could switch them around. Or

I can vouch for Odoo and its Builder module. Odoo itself is open source, but there's a paid support model. We implemented an open source version for one of my clients and for business/production/inventory/accounting I&#x

Agreed, and I'm currently looking for a more elegant solution for that very input data. I'm thinking of a very simple invoice line editor, and a way to keep the metadata for each generated invoice. Suggestions welcome! Cheers

Pro photog here. Done that many times. Pro SLRs can shoot 12 fps with good stabilization. I wouldn't miss it. Yet every time I've seen stuff fly by I didn't recognize, I only had my phone with me. Doh!
