What a trip down memory lane, thanks for this. I was running a hardware review aggregator site in the 90s, and dpreview and the above provided quality content. When search engines were not great and link sharing / exchanges were useful

Absolutely correct. Chatted with him several times circa 2015 to 2016 when working out of Capital Factory in Austin. He was present for all sorts of event such as mentor hours, startup pitches, etc. Funnily enough, he would give you a very

This one is legendary especially in hot seat mode. So many summer hours with cousins were spent playing this, fond memories. Now if I can hook my young ones on this or civilisation, I will fear long airplane flights no more.

Indeed, what a fantastic story and read, thanks for sharing. I can barely bring myself to drive to NM or big bend from Austin, and here you were going to cross the state on horseback, and then some. I'll bookmark this for when I lack m

In addition, and not considering privacy concerns, I've found relegating them to kids entertainment to be a pretty good use case. Conversations go into all sorts of random directions, it misunderstand most of the intent which can be ve

Been probably 30 years since I played it last, but that would so make sense wouldn't it. I don't think I figured that out back then, wow. Still, the interface compared to all the other adventure games at that time was just so diff

Additionally, transistors can experience aging through various mechanisms [1], some of which are permanent and some of which can be fixed with a reset. Most manifest via a shift in threshold voltage of the transistors, which can impact the

This is very informative. During the financial crises of 2007 to 2010 about 3 to 4M properties went into foreclosure. I have not looked into statistics of home ownership vs rent for those impacted by covid, but given the number of infected

This is a similar observation I've made on BB. When CC went under, I was fairly certain that BB was on the chopping block next, and I though Fry's would be the last one standing. Forward 15 years and the fortunes of BB and Fry&#x2

One thing that has to be considered and can become an issue with under volting is that multiple transistors make up circuits. Some times these transistors work together and some times they fight each other. Even two transistors in close pr

Curious as I don't know the terms of a perpetual architectural ARM license. But, is it valid only for a specific architecture, say v8 or v9, or is it valid for all future architectures as well? Or is it one of those things, where it de

Been enjoying 11ty very much as well as of lately. Most of the things have worked for me first time around as well. One thing which has tripped me up has been the flexibility of the different template engines, and in what order files get pr

Thanks for sharing, this brought back some great memories. I grew up in Wuppertal and took the Schwebebahn all the time, fantastic ride to avoid traffic. You can still book the classical Kaiserwagen I believe for special occasions, although

This is a very interesting question. With everyone fabbing at TSMC (amd, nvidia, apple, google?, amazon?, aspiring startups) I could see a bidding war for volume guarantees if there is a volume problem going forward. Some of these players h

Used to work at Computer City in the mid 90s. It was not always that easy to verify if you had the right product in the box even when opening a returned item, especially if you were not familiar with the product being returned. Looking thin

I agree on PC being much better in tracking investments and performance especially as net worth increases compared to mint. I have also found it to be more solid connection wise vs. Mint over the last year where mint has really gone downhil

This seems about right. Also, there is a time frame when a new complex after completion transitions from a short term builder/construction loan to a long term permanent loan. For that loan as mentioned above the building is valued at t

Thanks for the input. I was assuming things may have improved since I last used them a few years ago. My experience was similar to what you mentione above, back then. This may save me some time evaluating options for future ventures.

Good for them. Used them for startup a few years ago. Worked really well and super simple to use when all employees were in a single state and we only utilized their payroll services. Once we started venturing into offering health insurance

A good follow on to this study, along the lines of tennis, would be how the introduction of polyester strings to the pro game about 20 years ago [1] impacted the game, for younger and older players - to see if similar conclusions can be rea

Still using the 640 as my primary phone for the exact same reasons and really can't complain. Picked up a few of them when they were giving them away practically for free, simply because of the quality and sturdiness of the device - an

Good idea from the perspective of not exposing the code base. However, technologies such as remote Cuda/OpenCL which rely on remote execution of compute kernels in general require high-bandwidth and low-latency connectivity - this is e

This would be the equivalent of a month to month lease, and many landlords will be open to that, although for a slightly higher price as they have to account for a potentially higher turnover. Additionally, many lease contracts have early t

^ exactly this - evictions can be very stressful and overall very expensive. Although most contracts are written such that they make it seem that the landlord will go after you should you need to get out of a lease early - most smaller land

This is a valid concern, which is one of the reasons we publish these AMIs through the AWS marketplace. Each of these AMIs had to go through the AWS security checker script as well as a manual review by the AWS marketplace team, please see
