My understanding is that real-time makes a system slower . To be real-time, you have to put a time allocation on everything. Each operation is allowed X budget, and will not deviate. This means if the best-case operation is fast, but the w

Huge frustration at whoever edited/shot that video. Frequently zoom in exclusively on the speaker when he is actively diagramming a visual he built. Miss several scenes he was presenting.

There was a recent post[0] where the author discovered that the company had deliberately tuned the loss rate so as to incentivize purchases. Which, I suppose is legally in their power. It is "just a game" where they can set the ru

If I were looking for a 100 year language, I think I might go a little higher level and target Lua (say 5.1 so you could plug in LuaJIT and/or NeoVim plugins). As a dead release, it is already at a situation of no feature churn. The VM

As someone stuck on a Windows corporate laptop, I can say that WSL2 is definitely not on the approved software list. Unless it installed by default and comes with a big solid green check mark for compliance/virus scanner/whatever

What if the algorithm turns out to be tuned in such a way as to essentially never reduce prices? That is, the algorithm is deliberately crafted in such a way so as to always favor the renters vs the rentees, could that weigh into the argume
