Isn't it possible to improve Snap? What are the blocking points? - Apps installed as Snaps are slow to start-up. Why? - Snap from time to time asks to close a Snap-installed app to be able to update and often it seems it cannot update

> I expect it would be more likely they’d just go straight to ASML and start building their own fabs. Yeah, right. As if it is that simple. Just construct a building and put ASML machines inside and off you go.

It's actually this idling power which is what defines battery drain for most people. All these benchmarks about how much it can for a certain compute intensive task is not that important considering that most of the time a laptop is do

Well, I kind of agree with you at some level, but it depends on how deep you go and how detailed the plan is. If one can follow the plan step by step and when you are finished, it's a success then maybe, but according to my experience

If there are 1000000 stocks of a company around and a lot of people want to buy and almost no-one wants to sell. If one person manage to buy 10 stocks from another person at 10% above last days price ($100), i.e. at $110, then the total mar

It's weird, 10 years ago I implemented using Google Maps API a website with dynamic maps, distance matrix, geolocation, map overlays and address autocomplete completely free also at high traffic. It was also easy to use. Five years ago

Probably, right. The cave men or before that probably only had one or a few chances to mate while in our society we live in couples and can copulate many times per month, year in and year out, and thus a lower sperm count is countered by an

"The only “knock” I could see is the presentations..." The presentations? Is that all you got for it? Is that the only or the most important outcome? I would say that's nothing. It's the actual implementation that counts

I guess a balloon could drop bombs. A balloon could also be in the way for airplanes. A balloon could also drop its payload, on purpose or by accident. The recent balloons have been reported to carry a load the size of up to several buses s

Also remember that air-to-air heat pumps are overall less efficient and powerful than air-to-water or geothermal-to-water type heat pumps. Firstly the later typically have a higher power rating. Secondly, if you can lead water around the ho

"nofollow" or not, it does not mean that search engines do not take that into account. They maybe don't scan the linked site there and then, but I would be surprised if they did not take note of that someone linked to it.

The anti-trust laws have to stop Microsoft before it's too late. People complain about Google and Facebook, but the big evil today is Microsoft.

But you are confusing yourself. Just because AWS has more servers being rented to and used by their customers doesn't necessarily mean they have the most CPU power available for themselves to run AI models. I also doubt computing power

As you have a detailed conversation with the Chatbot it will know a scary amount of detail about what you are looking for. It can target you in extreme detail. It does not have to show it on many places of with vivid pictures. It's eno

It maybe doesn't drive much traffic directly from Wikipedia, but you might have a higher SEO rank when people search in google for whatever your sites are about. Thanks to the links from Wikipedia.

I suppose if the text is good and adds value and is factually correct then it does not matter if it's a human or an AI assistant who wrote it. (Except in the cases of plagiarism of course.) The issue is that many or most of the AI gene

Exactly, it's equally important to be able to trust that things are right when they are right, as it is to not trust things when they are wrong. If it's too easy and accepted to wave off real images and videos as fake, that's
