We got a Breville Barista Express when the pandemic started, and while the grinder leaves something to be desired, it pours consistent shots that still taste great for beginners. Couple tips to future owners: 1. You can make the grind size

I’m just glad I got through medical school without having to deal with most of this, but we too had examsoft and canvas - just a whole lot less software supervision and always proctored in person. I don’t understand why the policy wasn’t to

The story behind 20-20-20 is actually pretty interesting, take a look! TL;DR: an optometrist came up with it in 1991, to help corporate workers come up with a quick and dirty rule to reduce eye strain. There's no scientific basis behin

I think the problem is that people (myself included) rarely update npm packages, and perhaps the upstream creators of some libraries won’t update either, mainly out of fear the update will break some part of your project.

Oh I see that in the article now. It also seems like the performance gains you saw on other Zen3 chips doesn't correlate with EPYC due to the sheer number of cores and other components on chip.

The most frustrating thing to me is that you, the patient, had to ask the doctor who is supposed to help you coordinate your care about one of the most important pieces of the puzzle that was still pending after your procedure. All of the v

I tend to agree, had a 2017 MBP prior, but the laptop certainly got hot and things had to throttle a little. Had I not tried an M1, I doubt I would have noticed.

Can anyone comment on if the m1 MacBook Air can handle 4K external display well enough for daily use? I know it handles my ultra wide 1440p display, but I wanted to confirm before I purchased a 4K display.
