Except in another linked page https://www.notebookcheck.net/M5-Max-with-inconsistent-perfo... they also mention a thermal issue. Either way, this article is almost entirely about a symptom without root cause analysis.

If I remember correctly a previous MacBook air could have improved thermal dissipation by adding some thermal tape and turning the case into a heatsink.

Is the article trying to discuss a thermal issue? It spends the entire time discussing reduced watt consumption over time which would sound like a good thing to most people and then at the very end it has one sentence about needing improved

It's not just a hobby you need, it's purpose. For some that is a hobby. If you go the hobby route, try to look for one that has in person meetups. Others going through this use self-improvement as their purpose (gym, suit up, etc)

For forums you can look at them for a minute or less and figure it out. It's same with HN and sub-reddits. They are information dense and don't require signing up or customization to figure out if you can curate them into somethin

I still host one of those 20+ year old forums. The Fediverse is different. With forums (and HN/Reddit) you immediately had good sense of them being for you or not. With the Fediverse to have to commit to servers and even then you don&#

The real question will be; Do we need to pay the juniors to write code to become seniors? If coding is an art then all the juniors will end up in the same places as other struggling artists and only the breakout artists will land paying cod

It was more that for past reasons they already have all my information so I'd rather avoid giving to out to other companies. And their spam filtering is hard to beat. Ended up narrowing my alternatives to fastmail and Microsoft. And si

I think most big tech companies are like this and it's just going to get worse as AI adoption increases internally. 2 days ago I tried to create new gmail account and Google insisted that my phone number was used too many times. Fine,

Hopefully it would use the Foreign Function and Memory API instead of JNI.

It's not binary. Jobs will be lost because management will expect the fewer developers to accomplish more by leveraging AI.

Ease of recycling is not prioritized during design or manufacturing because there is no monetary incentive (for the manufacturer) to do so it most cases. It would eat into profits. Simple as that. Unless a component is expensive to manufact

I'd argue the question was wrong, it's not that big companies can copy you easier now. They could have always invaded your space and destroyed your business. As other pointed out it was always picking up the pennies that they didn

That would discourage higher education, you are basically punishing people for it. Try giving free education to all government employees instead.

Kids and preteens don't care about the experience being better in one environment vs another. That age group has less patience than older age groups, all they want to do is to see the movie NOW. They don't want to go to the theate

I found that logging into the cable modem itself and getting the signal levels and modem event logs helps. The poster seems to just be logging IP reachability. You have to keep repeating that modem logs show the problem is outside of my hou

Not just social media postings but past real estate listings can probably provide floor plans. And if you don't have those, a lot of buildings have common patterns. Its very much in the realm of possibility to train a model using exter

They can use keepalive but it's likely the small sites are not getting enough traffic on the edge nodes to maintain the connections. You don't think taking a small hit on TTFB is a good trade off for the improved scaling that a CD

Depends on the amount of data/assets. With all the AI bots its easy for (default) caches to be undersized since sites no longer have most frequently accessed URLs, every URL (and query param combo) ends up being frequently accessed.

I have Sony Bravia TV that has Android TV so I went looking for the docs to confirm you can enable developer mode, access adb, and sideload apps. While looking at the docs I discovered I can load HTML5 apps from USB! I never knew that but I

LLMs have made it better for us. The quality of code committed by the junior developers has improved.

AI/LLM has become of core part of IT. If you don't want AI then it seems like you want a retro-computing news aggregator or just HN minus personal annoyances. I get it, sometimes I want the simpler days but as long as the AI&#x2F

Next time you might want to wait until your are off of the cruise ship before posting about it on a blog with your name. They'd probably be within their stated passage contract ([link-redacted]) to disembark you at the next port.

Sounds like the old days of Windows where you just need to format and reload every so often to get everything working the way it should. You have to reset your AI sessions to get them back on track, why would an AI OS be any different? I fe
