> where we’re the only major Android browser to support an open extension ecosystem Uhm, Kiwi browser is Chrome-based and supports Chrome-extensions on Android and has for years. It's pretty great.

I loved rockbox on my sansa e200 series. That tetris clone was great.

I've been homeless since around 2014. I've just kind of accepted I'm going to die homeless and alone.

I guess we just disagree. I find the distribution of posits very logical, and I can see your points, but I digress.

That's fun. I understand all of that and exactly where the error lies. But you don't. And I'm not gonna tell you. :)

That's a fair point. Most programmers are terrible. As a lead programmer I've dealt with countless "programmers" that can not do their job without me spoon-feeding them code.

It should. Most medicine is just extracting plant chemicals, modifying them, concentrating them, and thereby they can patent what nature has provided.

What's to be terrified about? Humans also hallucinate. Doctors are terrible at their jobs.

Not really. I don't think you've read his papers. The implementations in hardware lack range, but soft posits can expand to ridiculous ranges, and comparing the math, posits are superior(imo, granted, they're more or less sim

That's an interesting non-sequitur. Rather a whataboutism. I hope you get the healthcare and transit you need.

All you gotta do is look at the graphs to see posits are more accurate and precise for pretty much any given scenario, assuming the bits are distributed 'wisely'. Unfortunately, it's not easy to do in hardware and the hardwar

Posits formerly unums, these are amazing. The best solution I've seen. Look up John Gustafson. This article doesn't mention him or posits. They can expand with inaccuracy but retain precision. Or sacrifice precision for accuracy.

You just need posits! John Gustafson will teach you how. Amazing concept. It would be amazing to see it in more hardware. It's especially good for AI and numerous other applications. Puts floats to shame. Of course this guy starts with

Nuclear isn't profitable. Renewables have plummeted in cost making nuclear cost prohibitive, and let's face it, if they're ever built it'll probably be too little too late.

LEDs can satisfy the color temperature of incandescents. They're actually fuller spectrum. They are designed for such. You can purchase a wide range of them. They're also extremely more efficient.
