Exactly what I mean, it's never going to make perfect sense, so trying to adapt two separate meanings to gel slightly better seems futile. I would argue the US still not being on SI is a bit more than a quirk. I wonder whether you&#x2

Yeah, some kind of lede/lead type separation would make sense. But in a sense there already is one as K barely sees layman usage outside color temp, so your second sentence isn't likely.

Yeah warm to hot is good but again runs into clashing with things established before much had been said about black-body radiation. Just because it might not be conductive to a neat 1:1 mapping with scientific common sense doesn't have

That’s a different thing, the actual control was as you describe (measuring stress markers over time). The thing mentioned appear to be an attempt to confirm some previous study's finding about self-sufficiency, which is pretty much re

Warm/cool color theory predates the kelvin scale, so it might be more accurate to say you feel Celsius' flipping his original scale was the screwup? But as how it is now makes that much more sense, and since you couldn't real

Haha sorry should've been much clearer, I meant specifically computer power benchmarking. You perform busywork, if for marketing purposes usually of the kind or at least set up in a way favorable to your product, and on the presumption

They were very slow. The important thing is they didn't feel sluggish, at all. It took Android phones many many years to even approach feeling as responsive and smooth and indicative of whether input has actually registered as the ori

Yeah but phone calls and music always did work in the background.

But they wrote "Apple created THE smartphone.", not "Apple CREATED the smartphone." To me those mean entirely different things.

But that goes for any raw benchmarking, it’s busywork by design.

Yes, but the interesting thing to me is how that cutoff between linear and exponential complexity comes down not to the processor but other computing resources. Meaning when supremacy soon is demonstrated even accounting for storage, it sho

by htfu 7y ago
Thanks for the breakdown! But so in other words, it’s still not all that far off that (realistic amounts of) disk storage can’t contain the state and scaling reverts to how they assert it.

2.5 _days_, not years. A still fuzzy and arbitrary but imo somewhat elegant cutoff would let feasibility be set by the market and technological development, in the sense of something not being worth throwing compute at _now_ because the tim

Well I guess you could say the essence of FP is working recursively without (mostly) thinking of it, and not having to deal with the sort of control flow necessary for either loops or the kind of self-administered recursion you seem to thin

Wow, peculiar. But ties into my point - there's now "Save to Files" _everywhere_ on iOS (even where it makes little sense) and yeah def a pain when apps that can clearly handle a filetype haven't registered as a target f

Alright, you're talking philosophy and me more about practical usage. But why do you think apps own CSV any more in Files than in Finder? That's where a lot of my confusion stems. Your view of x-callback seems off too, it's a

True, pushing from desktop to phone is slightly more convenient than digging out phone and pulling from destop. But isn't the important part that the phone can indeed transfer stuff over SSH, not the exact manner it's done?

Help me understand. Saving yields a psd which indeed requires PS. Whether project lives "inside" app or not it's still bound to it by format, and separate from your source. So you export the edited version, explicitly overwri

You're misreading me. Folding in the face of an ultimatum is disappointing but hardly unexpected, and "force" mostly makes sense as a description for it. Pressured or compelled (although almost the same) would seem a bit more

Back in the early jailbreak days I used to run a daemon so I could log in and poke around, but unless you’re developing, well what was your exact use-case? I never found one, it’s not a server. These days I use SSH a ton on my iOS devices t

Isn’t that an argument for abstracting that kinda back-and-forth away rather than against it? As it stands, if it’s in the cloud and not on your device there’s an indicator. Try to open it and it downloads. Edit it and the changes get syn

While it didn’t exist back then there’s been an actual file manager for a while now, and long before that files could be downloaded and opened by (hence stored with) apps, and then shared onwards if later settling on a different pdf reader

What? You can very easily use your iPad as a reader for pirated ebooks. Like, I cannot understand how it could possibly be made smoother than it is. Whether pdf or epub, and whichever device or type of device you use to add the file, once y

Given the paper already appears to have a correction for something minor, one more would seem appropriate, yes - it’s a pretty jarring error. But it’s just disingenuous to say it affects (let alone “invalidates”) the actual study. And shoul

"Forced to", "had to" doesn't strike me as appropriate language. These are choices - some in reaction to threats or bans but many entirely speculative/pre-emptive.

I can instantly toggle or schedule my card availability per global region (and on/offline) through an app, with login protected by hw or app-based 2fa. Your problems are already solved, in Europe at least. Thanks to banks and governmen
