Yeah, but big companies have long lifecycle and bundling contracts that makes them more resistant to change.

Well, the MAX has double the memory bandwidth of a PRO, but I cannot see workloads other than the ones you mentioned where it would make a significant improvement. Perhaps ML but that’s all proprietarized on CUDA so it’s unlikely. Perhaps A

Ok, let me rephrase. What I mean is - how I see it - that Apple just made the choice for every developer and gave them a conceptual model and tooling that does not depend on individual pixels or require them to make an extra effort in adopt

For what I know, it was rarely done for very short stays as it was meant and organized around the concept of traditional seasonal rents (i.e. students, workers on short assignment dispatches, transitions between longer stable residential ar

Amsterdam is closer in concept to a Flemish trade town than to an imperial core like the French capital.

It is definitely about both. And about returning the city to citizens who've been priced out by the tourism industry. There's nothing wrong with being a cultural hot-ground, a travel destination, a mindshare icon... but turning a

Ah sorry... so the major issue is not with Wayland itself, but with the major toolkits that in 10+ years haven´t bothered or figured out how to transition away from a rasterized buffer model. Right. It doesn't matter if the fault is wi

Well: * NetworkManager is a dumpster fire. * Wayland is 10 years in the making and it's still barely out of alpha and still missing crucial features such as fractional and consistent scaling. * Pipewire is a welcome attempt to mitigat

When you do extra, make sure it is recognized by your employer or go freelance and reap the benefits yourself. Don’t. Ever. Give. It. Away. For. Free.

If you’re referring to Thorium and pebble bed, they’re both not proliferation safe and have their issues with ecological confinement of highly active waste. So unfortunately they never managed to overcome the initial “should we even serious

Indeed. I’ve worked with several “enterprises” and often the OSS option was discarded for lack of support for certain enterprise use-case or integration with other commercial products; or for lack of professional support for production issu

Community edition and paid Enterprise plug-ins with support is a standard pattern in the OSS market. Not quite bait & switch as you put it, and frankly polishing and idiot proofing tools for production workloads is expensive, and requir

Well, I think one shouldn’t compare the sudden curfew/lockdown situation determined by COVID with the mores of a finely tuned social machine such as the office. Given enough time, people would start developing routines and habits aroun

Look, I’m not keeping any gate closed. It’s none of my business. If you want to invest in a time capsule for your favorite fancy go ahead. But please don’t go “ad hominem”-y when implying anyone is violating or oppressing you if they don’t

Indeed, but there’s this concept called “forgetfulness”. We can’t afford to hoard everything, eventually things get lost in time and it’s ok. We will die and so will our own footprints disappear. Something - perhaps the most relevant and ac

It’s only manageable with heavy handed medical care and heavy handed containment to preserve care capacity. Have you been living under a rock or are you just trotting out talking points? Let me ask: how many deaths in the USA alone? How doe

Well, most of it is just trash that won’t make anyone less rich if lost. It’s like putting a script of Antigone and a sex advertising graffiti in Pompeii on the same level.

Indeed. I rationalized it so: COVID is a wild enemy that will do whatever to survive at our own expense. We need to fight and wage all-out war, conscript, treat the wounded and comfort the widowed.

I guess that’s why the journals insist on copyright transfer. At best you get a ”copy” you can share via email when asked personally; the equivalent of a musician paid a couple drink coupons to share with their friends that came to see the

I need to find the words to describe my feelings about this. Definitely involves drawing negative conclusions about Amazon. I feel lucky that despite my recent losses, I didn’t have to deal with this horror.
