Not only that, because it has so many options and more of a bazaar-style development, nothing is optimized. Right now the systray has a very ugly delay when opening applets like WiFi or sound. Up to 1.5 seconds (!). This doesn't happen

You don't have a problem with no keyboard backlighting? Reading the list of QoL they scrapped I guess Jobs was right all along that to hit a base level of features Apple just needs a certain price point.

Motorola devices are terrible due to Motorola's update policy. Usually only 1-2 new Android versions max and then 2-3 years of quarterly security updates. For this GrapheneOS partnership to work, Graphene would need enough control of t

AI is good at the first 80% but terrible at the last 20% of producing good code. And you need to through that first 80% to really understand what the code is scaffolded to do, which writing it yourself will vastly improve. And typing speed

Your team is creating code you don't really grok to "get stuff out the door". Guaranteed a month or year from now this is going to bite you in the ass, hard.

No, a high skill floor is the opposite. It means that anyone can pick up the thing and immediately do decently. To put it simply, think assault rifle vs sniper rifle. Anyone can use the AR and spray and pray and do pretty okay. You can&#x27

This, pretty much. The ideal setup is having a separate vlan for your IoT things, that has no internet access. You then bridge specific hubs into it, so the hubs can control them and update their firmware. If you have IoT devices that are u

Go to the Adguard GitHub (or use the extension) and report it. And get all your friends to switch to Adguard extension and Adguard Home (Pi Hole alternative) as blockers. Easylist and its sublist are notorious for being poorly maintained an

Yes, I am very sure. And it isn't that difficult to understand, it is skill input graphed against effectiveness output. A higher floor just means that with 1 skill, you are guaranteed at least X (say, 20) effectiveness output. https:&

That Economist stat often gets misunderstood. It is "net contribution to public finances" (= how much taxes do they pay), not "net contribution to the economy". This is because they are overly represented in low wage job

Yeah, sounds like they're confusing AVX2 for AVX512. AVX2 has been common for a decade at least and greatly accelerates performance. AVX512 is so kludgy that it usually leads to a detriment in performance due to the extreme power requi

People weren't underestimating it and it's not that they "couldn't be bothered". They either understood the gaping security/safety holes it creates, or were guarded against their own stupidity.
