I upvoted your comment earlier and came back just now hoping I’d find it at the top with replies linking the research that must exist. But no; you’ve just been buried under a mountain of anecdata. Ohh well.

Probably overkill, but I wonder if anyone has experimented with setting up a raspberry pi or something to pass through access to a network share over USB, that way you could have all the data on a RAID array with a proper automated backup s

Interestingly for me on iOS, that instagram link just takes me to the main feed in the app. For anyone else getting this, you have to tap the instagram logo on the top left, then select “following” from there.

I’d be curious to hear more about how you’re using F#? I’ve previously used Python for scripting, but just started developing for a company pretty deeply entrenched in .NET. Currently they’re migrating a lot from VB to C#, but I’ve missed

Honest question: did the crypto hype cycles “lay the foundation for something bigger”? I suppose there is an argument to be made that it pushed Nvidia to ramp up GPU production and lean into the compute market rather than gaming. Maybe gave

You see a lot of this in the bicycle industry. There are a lot of older standards in use like 9/16” pedal threads, 1 1/8” steerer tubes or 1” (25.4mm) handlebars but any new standard is metric - so bottom brackets, wheels, newer
