Consider ICL instead of LASIK if it's an alternative for the level of vision you have. Super happy, and the procedure was really no big deal.

CPUs haven't replaced GPUs for graphics though, and are very far away from doing it...

Nothing wrong with just following a bunch of recipes. If you do it enough you'll start to internalize common things and techniques, also play around with modifying them and substituting similar ingredients.

Not the case. Actual thunking is only done when calling into the kernel, you can't load a 32-bit DLL into a 64-bit process or vice versa.

Many projects, including mine, just use it without the voice features, as a modern replacement for IRC. It does work great for that.

New roombas and clones map your house with lidar and let you clean exact zones using a map from an app.

Really nice samples! Sounds great. Consider having the space bar toggle playback - would make it so much smoother to use! (used to that from all kinds of music software)

AMD has removed exactly the same hardware, and NVIDIA doesn't benefit much from the specialized vertex fetch hardware anymore, even specialized uniform buffer stuff is getting close to marginal benefit. Hardly unique to Apple.

No the page size on Windows is 4kb, however some things like file mapping do require 64kb alignment, due to ancient compatibility concerns with DEC Alpha.

Cast iron works perfect on induction. Just don't use the boost mode.

It might have a carbon filter, which is pretty effective. Need to change it every few years though...

No, induction cooktops are "hot" (heating your cookware) absolutely instantly, and in power boost mode transfers more energy into your cookware than gas. Basic ones are also no longer expensive, at least not in Europe. You do need

If your website has visitors from China, that's one more reason to not use Google Fonts directly - it's blocked for them so your site will look wrong.

"if x and y are doubles and x > y, then we have shown that double_as_int64(x) > double_as_int64(y)" This only applies for numbers of the same sign though. As soon as the sign changes, the relation breaks since floating point

Can't do it with Lego worm gears though. Maybe if you add some machine oil, but otherwise the plastic-vs-plastic friction is just too much.

If you have an editor with syntax checking such as VS Code with rust-analyzer, it checks syntax in the background as you type, saving you a lot of compile cycles. It doesn't yet scale very well to huge projects but getting better every

There's an infinite number of different sets of orthogonal bases that you can construct any signal from. Sine waves (with phase) are a quite natural and convenient choice though, for mathematical reasons (for example, the efficiency of
