We have to remember the median phone user isn't usually tech savvy. Is an average Joe or Stacy who use that device with communicate with friends and family, use Facebook, watch Netflix, and buy from Amazon, and that isn't somethin

I want to add other reason: It's astronomically expensive and really slow to grow. TSMC started in 1987, and AFAIK, the government of Taiwan invest in the company to help their grow. EU started some years ago, investing in R&D in t

I would like an IDE like this but for Rust. Some day I will get angry enough and I'll have to make it myself.

As an Spaniard, I can say we have a lot of problems: - Low industry and industrial market focused to make profit saving in wages, not selling an interesting product or an advanced one, and usually risking the minimum possible. A lot of big

For me, as an exaggeration to being understandable to an American, it could be this example from Regular Car Reviews (time: 02:20): https://youtu.be/oMDcIApBtL8?t=141

I haven't done something like that on an iPad, but I think that Apple want people to use these devices in a way that every app have their files, like for example iPods used to store the music (you could drop files on the iPod storage b

I imagine that this, in addition to WebAssembly, could lead in the future to playing more complex games from the browser with the benefit of being platform agnostic (in kind of device, hardware architecture, OS) as long as the browser, the

The only thing I would change would be the screen. One with more nits would be really nice, and having a Ryzen version of this would also be nice, but I totally understand the availability problems of AMD processors nowadays. The rest of th

I don't find any good reason to use .C instead of .cpp, .Cpp, .cxx, .Cxx, or similar. That two characters more of information helps compilers and other persons a lot.

Let's imagine the bill of material is about $30, and that's cheap knowing they have mid to high end embedded SoCs or DSPs being able to move 4K video. To that price, you also need to add a continuous software development for the O

I don't know about OLED and other fancy panels (like Micro LED, QLED, etc.), but for common LCD panels there are plenty of controller available to use them, even with 4K resolution [1]. And panels aren't difficult to find because

I think one of the very first thing is having an alarm clock to sleep, not only to wake. Cut all the screen time at that moment and try to sleep. The first week probably you will have a hard time trying to sleep at that time, but if you do

I never expected a Jocko Wilkins or a Jordan Peterson book here. It's curious how I find more and more psychology aficionados around here and people who enjoy their books without being.

I don't know about the real damage it can do to our eyes, but I always preferred "dark" themes in every software I use now and I used in the past. It simply feels more comfortable to me. I have used it even in some in Microso

Personally, using a good debugger and knowing how to use have been more useful to me that anything else. I mainly code in C and C++, and Visual Studio integrated debugger and GDB are my main debuggers (depending what I'm doing). For me

I had the same experience as a child but with an old camera flash. While cutting a big capacitor I accidentally shorted both of the terminals. Since them I have a lot of respect to electricity.
