Does it use a different app on the Ultra? I'm still using my second generation and (aside from some nonsense earlier this year about expired certificates) still going strong - can't ever remember it "Crashing". Perhaps i

Exactly - mercury's orbit was only really plotted accurately enough to show the discrepancies in the second half of the 19th century. And then you need other examples to test new theory predictions on as they come about.

Maybe? That's one theory - but what is "spacetime", and what does it mean to "bend", or "fall into" something like that? In many ways we've just given things names as if that suddenly means they&#x2

There's still plenty of opportunity for playing games with the specific job categorization and level - the definitions are wooly enough and work opaque enough there's functionally no oversight possible. And because the lottery is

But for muscular/joint pain the anti-inflammatory aspect is a feature, not a bug. And I'd guess that's what most long term user's target is?

While the borrow checker is one big difference, it's certainly not the only thing the rust compiler offers on top of C that takes more work. Stuff like inserting bounds checking puts more work on the optimization passes and codegen b

Don't forget how much of a "high-performance" implementation is due to the physical implementation, a lot of engineering effort is put into that post-HDL. And much below HDL is hard to share, as it relies too much on (clo

I feel there's a generation of Brits burned the wave of random telecoms companies digging up major roads for years for cable, only for the results to be pretty much useless by the time it's done as ADSL and existing POTS lines cou

But the estimated number of "illegal" workers is so much larger than the number of people whose identity is stolen on tax returns each year I'd suggest that the issue isn't so much with the tools already available, so mu

Not just beautification. If people walked more because the route was actually pleasant and cooler with shade, that's less automobile miles, perhaps lower AC costs, and likely less healthcare costs in the long term. So even a relatively

Also check for firmware requirements - some devices enumerate but fail on ifup without firmware available. The android UI naturally can't cope with this, only dmesg tells you what's going on. Though not sure if CDC devices require

I'd argue that the entire point of using a shared open source kernel is that other users can benefit from additions. Arguing "Who first added a feature" seems to be a losing spiral of needless tribalism. How many features doe

Yes, but the concept of CFI is only mentioned in passing in that entire thread, and the kCFI implementation used is a vanilla kernel feature and not android specific. There's a lot to be said that "Distro kernel config choices may

All of that's talking about the userspace though?

I'd also say that this encourages people to sit on exploits instead of reporting them immediately, so they can try to submit it next time if they didn't get it, even without submission timing shenanigans. So it may be actively enc

Any my brother seems to function having a coffee only a couple of hours before bedtime since he was 18. If I do the same I'll not sleep at all and feel terrible the entire next day. The question is more about would you function better

I just came back from 3 straight months in the UK with google fi and had mobile data for that entire time. Perhaps it's country dependent? Or based on other metrics? I wasn't a heavy mobile data user, but didn't intentional

For the amount of money OpenAI burns that $25/mo is functionally the same as zero - they're still in the "first one is free" phase. Though you could say the same thing about pretty much any VC funded sector in the "

Same with android phones - a super-specific hardcoded phrase is much easier to work in the power budgets required for an "always on" part of the device. It's why a manufacturer (like Samsung) can change that sort of thing o

Eh, there's plenty of small fabs globally that do smaller run "nowhere near cutting edge" (180nm or so) runs - you can make a pretty decent processor on that sort of tech. Would be a pretty solid intermediate step to bootst

To have zero effort in attempting to reproduce even 70s-era silicon technology for 30 years implies some real bad stuff, if the entire chain has been knocked out to that level I doubt "silicon chip fabrication" would really be a

I think this is already the "standard" interface for physical thermostats in the UK - the house where I was growing up in the UK, 4 timers (that can be selected based on "day of week"), a "1 hour boost" button,

It's a "source" that cannot be reproduced or actually referenced in any way. And all the other examples will have a chain of "upstream" references, data and discussion. I suppose you can use those same phrases to re

Oh, I got this and thought it was a bug - I reported it assuming that somehow I must have been served the mobile interface on my 4k monitor :P

I think it's a mistake to draw a hard line between "systems" software engineers and hardware engineers - e.g. I would see myself as a software engineer, but an pretty comfortable with HDL, or even modifying it, even if my pr

Though for the most the performance cost of going down to 8x PCIe is often pretty tiny - only a couple of percent at most [0] shows a pretty "worst case" impact of 1-4% - that's on the absolute highest-end card possible (a ge
