He does talk about the laptop he uses at the end of the post. >All tests were performed on a 2015 MacBook Pro, 2.5 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3. For all tests the best of three runs was selected for the result.

Usually, the release candidate is modified only if significant bugs are detected. But this this branded more of an implementation pitfall so I doubt it'll be fixed. You're absolutely right about asking if it can be fixed now rathe

Can you please explain what you were referring to by 'new ones with no pre-existing specialized chips available to replace FPGAs.'? I've never really head of any thing new that can replace FPGAs.

Is it an unsecured or secured connection? Can you make a connection? You might want to check if they just blocked your IP addresses and your connections are being dropped. Although if you're been running it for 2 years(!), I think you

You don't really need a open source router. Just something that can be flashed with Openwrt or dd-wrt. The router you linked actually runs a fork of Openwrt. https://openwrt.org/

I agree with you on the amount of technical knowledge that's needed. I guess routers/home internet security might be ready for some shakeup if someone comes up with a layman-ready interface while being secure. But, the point of ha

Rather than avoiding such TVs, I think we're better off taking some good precautionary measures. Why buy commercial displays which usually are pretty expensive, when you can buy consumer ones and be smart about how you use it? Of cours

Artistic only. You'd need an exact verifier in case of engineering designs, and something built with neural networks is not one. To get a better understanding (other than reading a paper) read this excellent blog post https:/&#x2

Not all (I'd actually venture out to say most) people important to Uber (customers!) think like you do. Look into the #deleteUber campaign and the subsequent rise of Lyft usage. I was pretty disappointed to see the same reactionary pro

Maybe it has to do with how investors view hardware vs. software companies. Social networks are much more volatile than hardware products and hardware companies are more stable. Of course, labelling themselves as camera company isn't g

There's a linux kernel security feature named seccomp[1] too, in case you didn't already know. Changing it would maybe avoid confusion. [1]: https://github.com/seccomp/libseccomp

Or possibly researching new avenues of energy generation? I see potential for nuclear energy in the future, and spaceships will have to resort to nuclear energy because fuel isn't going to cut it for energy intensive long term missions

I don't think any startup knows that they're going to shutdown within the year. No one would take the time if they knew they were going to shut down soon.

>higher cache miss rate from the larger code and data sizes. Can you explain how these are related? What do you mean by "larger code"? I'm assuming you're talking about the binaries, rather than actual code. I'd

I think having a day for a whole year is a bit sparse. Some startups start and shutdown within a year. Apart from checking backups after any big code change related to backups, I think backups should be checked quarterly. It takes no more t

Here[1] is the HTML 5 standard. It includes a lot of things that a word file would never need. You're correct about not needing a lot of the things that say a browser like chrome has. Can we still not achieve the same thing with someth

This is close, but I'm thinking cut out the web tools part. Do we really have to depend on HTML and CSS (or other XML based format which needs a web browser to view) to make and edit a simple word document? I cringe thinking of the blo

Thanks for the reply. I could really see making great looking documents with this. Although the problem is we're using all these cli tools (I love them too) to edit them. So the problem is when I try to edit them on a new computer or e

For people looking for good apps on linux, I'd recommend Franz[1]. It basically replaces all of your chat/messenger apps, including support for facebook messenger and Whats app. It runs in the background really well. [1]: http:&#x
