Neat. My new MacBook Pro has 256GB. I'm using ~133GB. That's XCode and the Xcode Beta, the full Office suite, Logic Pro, Firefox, Chrome, Safari, IntelliJ, GoLand, Photoshop, Illustrator, a bunch of other Adobe apps, and on and on

The 580X is an extremely capable GPU for normal usage scenarios. If you're doing compute, they offer the Vega 2 which is very competitive with anything on the market. People doing CUDA work are not using Macs. And for Mac apps that do

Enterprise Value (EV) is a far better representation of the value of companies, considering that both shareholders and debt-holders have a stake in the company. Tesla has an EV of $43B. GM has an EV of $135B.

Diverting the water through pipes will definitely cause significant ecological change. Nature minus humans endlessly causes the same sort of change, but to second an earlier comment this would be a nightmare to try to do in a lot of areas.

Also recall that mobile carriers and OEMs were opposed to Android I agree with the other claims (about Microsoft killing Windows Phone through their own actions and choices), however this one is a bit weird. Apple gave essentially no grou

And if you dispense such judgement on a public forum, you're inviting people to find it unfavorable. Detachment from the subject doesn't grant us the right to be assholes. Well I suppose we all have that right, but it doesn't

Neural network learning and inference primarily uses matrix multiplication and addition, usually at lower bit depths. You can do this on GPUs to great success and massive parallelism, however the GPU is more generalized than this so it take

She specifically mentions factoring in her costs, and the comment that you cite was about the fact that she enjoys shopping but is spending other people's money.

Your comment is extraordinarily cynical and judgmental, and seems completely detached from an observational article.

We know, unequivocally, that high-power radio waves in certain frequency bands can cause tissue heating (e.g. it isn't ionizing radiation like what you see in UV and beyond, where photons have enough energy to displace electrons and ca

Like you, I never feel needing more with a good LTE connection. It's faster than I've ever needed. Having said that, the promise of 5G is that it brings such an enormous bandwidth from a frequency perspective that it literally cou

Basically blog spam that cites an activist group that claims to have "published studies" that were published a year ago, having nothing to do with them. It is of course a concern that should be looked at, but we're currently

What context? That he was lying about the whole thing? It is interesting how frequently the Smollett case comes up, and coincidentally Trump just tweeted about it, from Japan, yet again (claiming that it's a "hate crime" agai

Lynch mobs are deplorable, and the internet hive often becomes a bullying group, however it's a weird example that you decided to set your stake into. What "critical thinking" was missing? Successful actor claims he was attac

For the longest time the going claim was that Google had automated systems that used parsed data on your email only to serve ads on demand (in relation to the email(s) -- not following your around the net). That nothing was being logged&#x2

Saying this is greenwashing is rather extraordinary doublespeak and is an element of the contrarian cynicism that just muddies the waters. Ireland relied upon overwhelmingly greenhouse gas producing power generation in years past. This year

But for your example it isn't needed whatsoever. They do what they want without it. Denigrating a good initiative by association with a small number of suspect participants is not convincing. "Or maybe even Google and Facebook mak

It has been a sentiment that is posted on here just about monthly, and this is surely not the first time you've seen it. Usually it yields a lot of cynical posts with clever new phrases for whatever is new, as if there are a lot of peo

This would be entirely predicated on callerid being trustworthy. But it isn’t. At all. Some scammers who have call lists based upon surreptitiously stolen contact lists now call people ‘from’ their own contacts.

Having Amazon topping that chart and then dutifully ignored as a narrative was spun makes the whole thing dubious. The rankings themselves seem a bit ridiculous and wholly unrelated to really anything at all. Not only has Apple had no such

The magic mouse is easily the best mouse I've ever used. It feels nice, works great, and the capacitive touch feature is one I now consider mandatory. Could they put the port somewhere else? Not with the current design (and it's a

The thing charges in no time at all, and lasts forever. It is a seriously overstated "problem". It is my work mouse for 99% of my working time, and as a very heavy user of it I love the mouse, and it just isn't something that

While I disagree with any sort of binary "we should do X and not Y" arguments, it is worth considering that once mankind has off-planet opportunities this planet will become significantly more dangerous. One of the benefits of nuc

Linux has countless LKMs (modules that run in the kernel, but are not -- broadly -- bound by the GPL). Many, many are closed-source and proprietary. Others aren't because they don't have to be. You hinted that this transgresses th

Qualcomm has no obligation to GPL their kernel drivers. Nor does nvidia, or any other KLM maker. This has never demanded that kernel drivers be open sourced. That's why it's impossible to make a runnable AOSP image for many device
