Thinkpad T460 - best laptop ive owned yet. Great keyboard, great battery life, great linux support out of the box (everything works including suspend resume).

Does dell offer a quad core processor without pulling in an Nvidia GPU? That is what ticks me off about their models. Upgrading to a quad core processor also requires upgrading to the 4k screen which requires an Nvidia GPU which makes batte

Do we know for sure ryzen does not have ecc support?

Can anyone comment on whether its safe to run ceph inside docker?

That first line is amazingly brazen. If a movie is made about Intels monopolistic practices that fully belongs as a dialog spoken by the Intel CEO.

C++ on windows. Lets just say that the number of things hooking into file modified notifications (anti viruses etc) are largely the culprit.

At work my compile times went down by 70% on switching to a SSD.

Which is your latest i7 chip? Did you switch from hdd to ssd somewhere along the way? What are the core counts with each generation ?

How has the experience on Wefunder been?

I see them benefiting immensely. A big problem that Microsoft has is that once you start going down rabbit holes on Windows the number of people out there who have a clue is vanishingly small. So for systems programming on Windows there is

Standard libraries are where libraries go to die and get ossified. I prefer the C++ model where you can pick best of breed solutions.

Same here - I would highly recommend people to at least try this once and get a reminder of how fast sites can be.

That still wont change the version of OpenGL supported by the driver as far as I know. If someone has OpenGL 4.5 working on OSX I would be very interested in finding out.

Because unlike OSX it is possible for end users to upgrade the supported graphics API without the OS vendor having a say. Its the exact reason why games on Windows have such a vibrant ecosystem.

I will try do do this, though I remain sceptical that this will lead to anything. Not supporting external graphics APIs and Apple effectively controlling the drivers seems to be more of a business decision to me than a decision from a tech

by dman 10y ago
I would much prefer hardware vendor supplied drivers since they have an active interest in adding support for newer versions of graphics apis. OS vendors have proven to have a very poor track record supporting newer versions of graphics api

While I have your attention - what can be done to improve the state of Vulkan and OpenGL on the mac - its the single biggest reason for me to ragequit the OSX platform every time I try to give it a shot.

Why not find out the new ways to achieve this before pulling the plug on the existing stack? You are asking your users to make a leap of faith with you by moving to a browser that is less powerful in the short to mid term.

I would be surprised if most startups arent doing something similar behind the scenes.

What did you use instead?

Out of curiosity - do the codebases for modern browser engines routinely get subjected to static analysis tools and runtime tools like asan (Address sanitizer) / valgrind? Are there categories of UAF that would not be caught with valgr

I agree this things like typing speed and a good editor should not matter but in reality I think it does. I think the state of programming flow is very hard to get into, and very easy to fall out of. In fact the easiest way I find myself ge

That could possibly remove the element of surprise once people sized the amount of currency being printed.

I work on databases and I ran into similar problems implementing index data structures. While I understand petgraph solves some/all of these problems completely - it would be great if the barrier to writing trees / graphs from scr
