That depends on what you're doing. If you're running a bunch of bloated garbage like Discord and Slack and whatever then yeah, you'll need a lot of memory. If you're running mostly native apps you might be surprised how

Do you have a 13" MacBook Pro with M1 or a 14+" MacBook Pro with M1 Pro/Max? If the latter, it has decent battery life, but it's nowhere near as efficient as the regular M1 MacBook Pro. If it's the former, I guess I

I feel something like "OK, you made your first guess, now try to get even closer! Here's another image" would have been helpful.

In this case though it's "you failed! try again tomorrow!" (because it's a daily thing). The odds I'm gonna come back tomorrow are extremely low though.

I got 19 miles away with my first guess, the map zoomed in and I thought "that's a weird bug", zoomed it out, and then proceeded to guess other guesses that were hundreds of miles away. Interesting concept, but poorly communi

This is really really disappointing. I thought since Toast is frequently used as the POS system for restaurants, using the app to place an order was like placing it directly with the restaurant, no middle men like DoorDash or Slice or whate

He wasn't actually a co-founder though, his startup got merged into Reddit and he was given the "co-founder" title, but my understanding is that Reddit was created/co-founded by Steve Huffman and Alexis Ohanian.

I think they were trying to use the technology to get the pizzas to their customers faster and cheaper than a typical pizza place. I actually ordered from them a bunch a few years ago before they shut down, they were pretty good - good food

Yeah, I love Wikipedia, but it's been a long time since I've donated because they clearly have more money than they know what to do with

Glad to see it, but it probably could have just been a "Y" and some CSS too

Did you even watch the video? There were no ads in it, and the part where he warns his viewers that he will never ask them for money is the whole thing he's talking about, that scammer bots are impersonating him in his comments and try

I’m comparing the two laptops the person mention in the article, the M1 MacBook Air and the ThinkPad T480

I'm all for pushing back on the idea that just because it's "old", that it's useless and needs to be replaced. Lots of old machines are still perfectly good at a lot of stuff, and can be had and upgraded for cheap,

While this is true, it's not really Apple's fault, most game makers just don't care about making their games Mac compatible. They don't even have to be Apple Silicon compatible, Rosetta does a surprisingly good job makin

It's way smaller, but only if you ignore the external power supply. The Mac mini has an internal power supply.

It’s 2.5x as fast! That’s pretty significant, people will spend hundreds or thousands of dollars to get a CPU or GPU that’s 2.5x as fast as their old one, but when it’s a network speedup it’s not that significant?

Well if Twilio is facilitating robocalls, I hope it does become a thing. Then maybe they’d want to stop robocallers from using their service.

Sounds like a good compromise then

This reminds me of the "Do Not Disturb while Driving" notification, where, despite not ever planning to use the feature, I had to turn it on, then off, to get the notification to stop showing up.
