This looks like a very nice database to sell to 3rd parties.

You are putting the cart before the horses. The first question is "why would anyone buy it?", and if you don't give an excellent reason for that, you will not see a 3D printer in everyone's home. And this makes your question about possible

This defeats the "shorter distance in a cube" issue.

You cannot have everybody do full stack development and devops and [insert whatever specialization you have here]. I know great programmers that got stuck in another specialty (because my company tried to create such broad specialization em

It's easy to forget that for a cleaner air in a city you can choose between rendering half a city inhabitable because two cars collided (if they are nuclear cars) or rendering a far away country inhabitable because of the byproducts the cle

All the cores fight for the same memory bandwidth. VMs do many context switches and cache invalidations.

6366HE has a base frequency of 1.8GHz, with 2.3/3.1 turbo. For the same money you can get a six core Intel E5-2630 (2.3/2.8GHz). The benchmarks [1] say the Vishera (desktop Piledriver) has about 50% of the Intel performance per core at the

But read extensive reviews first. There are a lot of cheap and horrible USB soundcards, and many times the built-in audio out is better.

If you check the article you will see that every charger has an Amp rating (like: 2 Amperes). This has a direct impact on the charging rate (provided that the device can handle it). Charging a device at 5V@2A is twice as fast as charging it

This doesn't work well with games. Yes, you could change the volume settings from there, but most 3D games are full screen and it's not usual to alt-tab the game just to modify the volume settings.

Because you can have more than one application with sound output. I like listening to music while I play games; I set the music to 80%, and I set the game to 15-20% volume. This cannot be implemented in one single volume control.

This will be limited by the costs. I get 5GB of monthly traffic for 10€/month on 21Mbps 3G (average speed: 4Mbps), but I get unlimited traffic at 150Mbps for the same price on a static line (average speed: 80Mbps). Cloud-based storage and s

I was saying that if you want to start a cork supply business (grow cork trees because you see an increased demand), you'll have to wait for at least 25 years to make any cork at all, and probably 35 years to make any revenue. A tree reache

The cork supply is not elastic. It takes at least 20 years for a tree to mature so it can be harvested, so if the market demand is doubled tomorrow, it will take 20 years for the supply to reach demand. This increases the prices and makes r

Cork is valuable because it's fire and rot resistant, and also quite impermeable. This makes it hard to compost.

What do you mean by hazy on scuba glasses? Because I don't think you mean tiny scratches and porous surface because of cleaning agents, dirt and dust (what happens with the headlights when they get "cloudy") but hazy in the sense of condens

Toothpaste, like the 3M paste, contains tiny abrasive particles that "clean" by friction. You can usually buff small plastic pieces with it by hand, but if you need to do a larger surface you need a polishing tool.

The SSD controllers are more complicated than the controllers you get in the cheap (and very slow - 10-20MB/s vs 4-500MB/s) storage you get in the phones. The controllers are the ones that usually fail.

Will Apple accept it? As I remember (not being an app store developer I don't really know), apps that duplicate built-in functionality are not allowed.

I found the hard way (repairing a T60 broken hinge) that the steel hinges are strong, but the part that links the hinge to the display frame is thin and made of magnesium alloy. It was so thin and small that I ended up fixing it in place wi

What I find great is that, at least for the business models, they offer service manuals that describe everything you have to do to change any part (from RAM to CPU).
