I mean, its also an atoll in paradise. Theres definitely plenty to do there, the navy for some reason has decided to ban surfing and instead put in slot machines.

tiktok has exactly one video format, and the videos are small and can compromise on quality because they’re intended to be viewed on mobile. processing becomes a lot easier when you only need to transcode to one format. and also it’s a line

> think what's interesting here is it's likely the first instance where Tesla FSD has been involved in an accident which affected other drivers. Autopilot has killed multiple motorcyclists, and is suspected in many other cases

I don’t think people fully grasp how much power and compute it takes to record and process video (me included). let me know how long that canon r5 can record for continuously, and how many batteries it’ll go through for that recording time.

sooo theres no possibility students are trying harder these days or are just plain better students? The acceptance rate at harvard in 1969 was around 20%, compared with 4.6% today. It kinda makes sense that if you're accepting people w

ok, i assume you just wanted to know about who was behind solana, which is pretty simple. i don’t know about any of those other crypto projects or who is running them now.

come on, it's on wikipedia and they put it on their linkedin. It's really not that difficult, it's not like they tried to keep their identities secret.

EU261 is a good model that we should look to implement here, basically you are due 600 euros when a flight is cancelled, and varying amounts for delays. It's absolutely insane that airlines can strand you for days and are not required

fishing nets are made out of nylon, not polyester.

You realize what polyester is right? All those fleeces made out of recycled bottles and the polyester clothing that every single kid wears are all shedding microplastics constantly into the environment. https://www.newscientist.c

5G is better in some usecases. LTE gets destroyed at sporting events or festivals, while 5G can support more devices and faster speeds.

sure, and we see the effect of that because house prices are slowly going down now, yet just like mbs holdings, not nearly fast enough to put a meaningful dent in the covid gains. and yes, rates will go up, but a return to the free market i

I remember asking my systems prof this question in class (I can't remember exactly what her answer was), but it was along the lines of is that it's more efficient due to OS+hardware optimizations. basically: use it when you need z

by kart23 4y ago
yeah, and the power draw is around the same because the 4090 is 4nm, and the 3090 ti is 8nm. smaller transistors means more power efficient chips, and thus larger improvements in graphics.
140.
by kart23 4y ago
I think we're still pretty far off from that. Graphics are still held back massively by processing power, and algorithms that significantly could improve visuals would have been developed by now if it were that easy.

encode is/was slow. Theres at least one group that was running an encode farm for AV1 though. today, theres a TON more AV1 content available these days from pirates as better hardware is available, and ffmpeg is usable with AV1 now.

by kart23 4y ago
running ads with that amount of content is a no-brainer and it's pretty much going to be required to keep it profitable. I wouldn't be surprised if apple TV+ is losing money, I've seen $1B tossed around online.

why is microsoft even working with them on this? dont they have their own ecosystem going, i wouldve expected them to keep office exclusive to their headsets.

you're trying a little too hard. Ads are built into the code that apple ships to every iPhone, and thats that.

by kart23 4y ago
the store is part of the OS, you cannot delete the app store, you cannot use an alternative app store, and you cannot turn the ads off. Ads are part of the OS. https://support.apple.com/guide/iphone/control-how-app

Even Apple has ads in iOS now, and nobody complains about it.
