I don't think I'm too far off in saying my teachers at the time probably weren't experienced with computers. I didn't have a computer at home until a couple years later (and moved to the US), and didn't really learn

I learned LOGO when I was 10 or so, in mid-90s, in India. I had just learned Basic the year before, and it did useful math things, so I was not impressed by LOGO. Off course LOGO does more than what I played around with on the lab computers

Gotta leave this here: https://www.techdirt.com/2023/06/21/seven-rules-for-internet... I think it encapsulates what is happening and what can be done about it pretty well.

I think academia and government have been focused on labor more than this[1], but the wildcard here is consumers who like things just the way they are, and judges still willing to go along. [1] https://docs.house.gov/Committ

That seems like a terrible business idea to me, but hey, open source is more of a development model than a business model.

If the boot disc has GPL code and you modify the code, the GPL applies. You would have to make your modifications available under the GPL when you distribute and allow others the same freedom you just used. It's the whole point of havi

It thinks the south bay is a desert, my house has a flat roof and windows instead of a garage, and so do all of my neighbors. Not a bad theme, but not very accurate to present day. Still impressive. If you zoom out enough, it goes back to O

There are options if you just want to play the game, yes, but Apple did the work here, and met developers the wrong half way IMO. If you just want to play with higher settings and fps on the computer you have, less emulation is better, as i

Yeah, Apple could build their own nvk-like for Metal driver at this point if they cared about any GPU other than their own. Nvk/mesa itself might enable Linux gaming on Mac pros with 3rd party cards.. one day.

So, you need to spend $3k to get playable framerates, which are possible with a 3060 laptop, maybe even a 3050ti, as they can do 1080p, this just seems to be 900p.

And this works pretty well, there's flickering on screen, but it is switching graphics. Maybe there's also some mouse stuttering or something as threads are moved to the active chiplet. This basically seems like AMD's version

Intel also reduced the prices of the A750 GPU today.

Definitely consider buying Intel if you can for GPUs. This type of behavior should be discouraged.

After the 777 gained enough market share, it just seemed like less and less flights (especially the long range ones) were on the 747. End of an era. I flew on the top deck of a 747 once, I was sweating the whole time, but the views were wor

This would be interesting to see in a JIT, even if on a sampling basis. I also wonder if some instruction filtering/detection approach would work for rowhammer.
