Definitely. It’s interesting how personal it all is. I guess I’m just theorizing how long until we are the modern equivalent of a writer who can only write with a typewriter. When I was a kid writers would discuss typewriters very similar

Although I agree with you I wonder if it’s just an artifact of how we were trained to type. When I see kids type on glass they don’t seem to require this tactile feedback. In 5-10 years, basically when today’s 10 year olds are of working

Regulation most certainly increases construction costs. Safety features will definitely increase cost. So does environmental compliance. I don't necessarily think those are bad things, but they definitely increase costs. From the ar

I think oconnor663 would agree that it is insane. I believe the argument is that YouTube needs to protect itself because someone could insinuate that they are complicit in a crime simply because someone was trained in the criminal act via

This is comparing an unreleased CPU to a two year old one. But more importantly, it gives no information on how the Intel CPU was configured and we have no idea what kind of memory it was paired with. It's just comparing two random use

I often have the opposite experience these days. A very (very) long time ago I knew almost everything about my computer system. I knew the physics of the transistor, the power systems, the schematic of the boards, I had practically all th

We're probably going to have to agree to disagree on this one as I just don't see the nuisance and I see some positive aspects to the existing convention which I highlighted previously. The classic, and really intuitive, experimen

But existing theory predicts all those just fine, it just happens that some things are not in the same direction, but it’s not like one can ignore direction. The math is still always there. And I argue things going in different directions

I’ve been hearing for years that the math involved would be easier if we switched signs on the electron but what equation specifically would be simpler? One would still have to deal with both polarities. I tutored electrical engineers for

This is only partially correct. One has to have a foreign sim and have data roaming turned on (which implies paying the higher rate). The author didn’t state if they did both. https://www.freedomsurfer.com/firewall/

I would think following rules set by the government is important. There are also environmental protection rules, safety rules, etc. etc. Apple says they follow all the rules (laws) in all the country they do business in. Do you really wa

I have to admit, I was skeptical but my complier did pick SIMD for the second and not the first and it did make a huge difference. % cat t.c #include <sys/time.h> #include <sys/resource.h> #include <stdio.

It really all comes down to what variable one is trying to optimize. I noticed neither article mentioned money as a possible variable to optimize. Here is another take to consider: https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2001/

I don’t think I was totally clear. I agree if one takes a cell and cuts it in half then the overhead of managing the two cells isn’t hugely significant but I think what happened here is volume which could’ve been cell became hinge and that

That just means I need my own generation and I put it with everything else in the cost roll up. If the economics is still there, I go.
