Charge it up to 80% in the firmware but show 100% in the UI. Wear leveling algorithms probably do something similar already.

I remember buying a Radeon at Fry's (Fountain Valley, Roman Empire), going home, opening it up and... it was something else, a cheap VGA card. They gave me a hard time about taking it back too, 16-year old me didn't know how to cu

Inflation generally encourages economic activity (spend your money before it depreciates) while deflation discourages it (save your money because it will appreciate) Lower prices are seen as positive for as long as they stimulate higher ove

For those that don't want to run a SMTP server, I built Ephemeral Postal which offers a basic API for polling a mail box and retrieving messages, along with an in-browser UI. You get an entire subdomain to yourself that will take any a

A few years ago, I read a slightly updated version of Constance Garnett's Anna Karenina and it was stunning. I have been reading a copy of P&V Crime and Punishment that I found laying around, and it does not have quite the intensit

Sign languages have such enormous variability that I have always thought having fluent sign language recognition / translation probably means we have solved AGI. Detecting the presence of sign language in a video is an interesting subs

Many deaf people do prefer sign language as an accessibility option over reading captions, even if the interpreting can be hit-or-miss.

Interesting ... I checked and the difference is closer to 5% ($0.99 May vs $1.04 June), and June's invoice was actually higher than May's. They are billing that amount because the storage amount itself is fluctuating (alternating

I actually have a similar story about Cloudflare, image hosting, billing and support, but the amounts involved were nowhere near as high. I was evaluating image hosts a while ago. CF Images seemed promising but I was afraid that my use-case

Feels like there is a similarity in a big ball of software mud and complaining about the layout of a website. Does it do the job? Yes? Cool, moving on.

Total layperson here, but here are some things I have been wondering that the article didn't really address. What happens if something like Starlink is intentionally targeted during an active conflict, maybe with something like a fragm

This is great news, but simultaneously disappointing that it is necessary. FFmpeg underpins tens of billions of dollars in value for the companies that use it, yet the support from the community is proportionally minuscule.

The specific issues that this article discusses (eg Nagle's algorithm) will be present in most packet-switched transport protocols, especially ones that rely on acknowledgements for reliability. The QUIC RFC mentions this: https:&#x2F

These types of keepalives are usually best handled at the application protocol layer where you can design in more knobs and respond in different ways. Otherwise you may see unexpected interactions between different keepalive mechanisms in d

I use nixpkgs on MacOS, is nix-darwin is a different project? I love Nix but it probably has too many rough edges for the typical homebrew user.

My Twitter feed has a bunch of people doing extremely niche deep dives into Cold War weapons systems. For example, on the design of MiG-23 air intakes: https://twitter.com/BaA43A3aHY/status/1753715489686057384

What an excellent write-up. Very clearly explained, and the use of gifs and visuals to illustrate concepts was spot-on. I'm only a software engineer with a limited understanding of this field, but really enjoyed reading this and learne

Curl and most libraries don't unwrap SSE for you out of the box, you lose the one-shot request-response leading to nonstandard flow control in integrations, etc. Sure you can find random libraries to help but they do need to be specifi

Sorry, that part of the comment was probably not clear - I was comparing "plain old polling" (stateless request-reply with no delay) with "push", ie long polling
