"Code review this" or "debug this" or "refactor this" are things that an actual developer doesn't need to do special preparation for as they probably do it almost every day, unlike LC, and should provide a

Probably blocks air that would've otherwise passed over the motherboard VRMs. With good case cooling, it probably doesn't matter, but the design is made to accommodate the lowest common denominator.

1. This was done every single day and night of the war. 2. Rubble still makes for surprisingly good cover in urban combat.

Russia has been running Goebbels-levels of propaganda to counteract whatever benefit came from access to western media. How much progress has been made since 2014?

The only way I've found to exit my morning daze is to take a walk outside that's at least 30 minutes. A bike ride also works, but that's more dependent on the weather.

Intel's (literally) doubling down on the Atom cores in Raptor Lake so they'll have to get it right for them to have a Zen 2-esque progression. CPU advances beyond the old +5% per generation are pretty exciting.

Alder Lake is more power efficient under low to moderate loads, which includes all gaming. It's only less efficient under loads pushing it at 100% on all cores when it's on a high power limit.

Yeah, this is a big factor. Everyone and their dog wants to design their own chips and fab them at TSMC, but it's simply not going to happen.

How many companies would you estimate have cultures with such problems? If they're quite numerous, then it seems to me that remote work removes a high risk of landing into an unsatisfying role while paying the price for having to still

I think that for the most part, reality killed it. Manual testing can slow down the development cycle considerably when bug fixes are streamed through, during system integration testing, etc. A small change can cause the manual testers to g

I've been using a rebrand of what I think is the Alera Elusion for more than a year now and it's working pretty well for me. It was somewhere in the range of $160-180 from Costco.

Then we're back to the nil interface problem: how do you know whether thing you got is nil or not?

by khyryk 6y ago
I bet there's a ton of Go code out there with methods that assume the pointer receiver cannot be nil without actually checking. The need for the nil checks along with != err everywhere makes for some incredibly verbose code.

Gaming performance regressions leave me a bit stunned. That's impressively bad, even for Intel. What are they going to do now, price this below the remaining Comet Lake stock and hope that Zen 3 has low availability until they have Ald

First get 7x50 or 10x50 binoculars and if you remain interested in observation, move onto an 8 inch dob reflector as your first telescope. I got the Zhumell Z8 for $400 years ago when it considered to be the best deal around, but it might n

I've been thinking about this for a while. Let's say that the USD is indeed 40% devalued and the market melted up significantly as a result of this -- does this not make "value" stocks a massive bargain? That is, if some

To be pedantic, you can't actually prove anything, positive or negative, outside of the realm of logic and mathematics.

Alder Lake will be a big-little design on 10nm, probably coming in Q3 2021.

Very nice pics! One can also start out without spending much money by using a holder/adapter with a smartphone that has a decent camera. Night mode or astro mode is the minimum to make it useful. I think stacking can be done using vide

By extremely weird, I'm guessing you mean lacking in detail. The tiny sensors can't resolve as much detail so cropping with phone pictures will hit a wall much faster than, say, a 24MP APS-C sensor. The trade-off here is that you

Rich people rarely buy stuff in proportion to their greater income (earning 100x more but not buying cars worth 100x more, etc). This would mainly affect the not-so-rich people, who, given fixed purchase budgets, would probably respond by c
