Just a fun random fact from me: We do need more lumens. Not for normal (non-production) indoor lighting in most situations, however, I always want a bright light for my outside lights, and I find that most 100w-equivalent (1500 lumens) are

I did not read the article. Reason: My response is "No shit, Sherlock." Mobile carriers have so much information about you. They know exactly where you are, what you are doing (location combined with mapping tools) combined with w

While I agree that it is amazing work, I feel the need to call out the wine team because, as many likely know, a redditor (admittedly of unknown origin, to me at least) felt the need to go to Valve prior to the wine team. Valve, of course,

It honestly doesn't matter. Sometimes these "articles" are sent out as thinly veiled "press releases" prior to an new round of investment. Sometimes someone who thinks they are a "reporter" has what they t

Are you? I'm not surprised at all, considering that the biggest investment juggernaut in AI is also the author of VSC. I wonder what the connection is? ;)

I didn't read. One issue with BYD (outside of the quality level of the article, which, as I stated, I didn't read) is that they are government subsidized. The bigger issue, that I've read about at least, is that they phone ho

So full disclosure, I haven't watched the video, and I've already seen some couple comments since I always take a brief scan before I do. That being said: The thing about soda that most people get wrong is the level of fizz. Nothi

My dude, It's been more than capable for years. I have an ultrawide OLED monitor (3440x1440@165hz) paired with a 4K@144hz monitor. Both HDR, different capabilities. Both have different DPIs set, 125% for one, 200% for the other. My set

I could not read past the first few sentences. The headline was terrible, and the author mentions getting a niche smartphone that nobody uses outside of the very folks he presumably is attacking. Beyond that, many of us make amazing softwar

It won't ever replace anything, because most folks don't understand the tech. I've no other way to explain this except to present this question: which is more popular, ASM, or literally any other higher level language (C, C++

RISC-V needs an inexpensive, performant part for it to be used in the consumer space. The fastest available RISC-V consumer chip is orders of magnitude slower than a Raspberry Pi 5. Example: https://browser.geekbench.com/v6&

FAANG isn't the world. Salaries for developers are well under $150k in most of the United States, for example, and that is for senior engineers. Most startups are paying $90k-$140k for senior devs, for example (I haven't done the

Based on the data I've seen, respectfully, you are wrong. No, I can't share it. The data is publicly available, however. Feel free to dig it up and aggregate it. The data is publicly available, the effort to dig into it, finding m

No DRAM manufacturer I know of uses ASML. DRAM is several years behind on lithography due to complexity/differences. Outside of that, I hope China can manage to obtain a foothold in silicon, the world, especially NVIDIA, Micron, Hynix,

I've been using Linux since the 90s, however I was never super awesome with it. I can do the basic stuff, and with a bit of documentation/guidance, a bit more. I was able to install Arch Linux at least 3X, for example. I also mana

Legally, Microsoft, or any company, cannot use any personal factors in determining who to lay off. If they do, they risk a very real lawsuit. All one needs to do is show some evidence of discrimination, and the EEOC doesn't charge a di

That may or may not be an INTERNAL NVIDIA goal, or even a goal for multiple companies, however, that is NOT how the situation will play out. The ecosystem isn't closed. TSMC doesn't exist in a vacuum. They may be the most advanced

You are absolutely wrong on this subject. Importantly, what matters is PPI, not resolution. 1080P would look like crap in a movie theater or on a 55" TV, for example, while it'll look amazing on a 7" monitor.
