Actual answer: better ANC. ANC algorithm improvements are one of the more common items I've seen in headphone firmware changelogs. Also, Bluetooth upgrades. I can't remember which, but one of my pairs of headphones gained multipoi

SpiderMonkey actually ditched most of the profiling stuff in favor of transpiling the ICs generated at runtime into the IR used by the optimizing compiler, inlining them into the functions when they're used, and then sending the whole

I suppose this means that you could find yourself unexpectedly out of disk space in unintuitive ways, if you're only trying to change one byte in a cloned file but there isn't enough space to copy its entire contents?

Do you have a good way of storing and organizing images (and other media) in Obsidian? It's the one aspect where I've found its functionality wanting.

I don't know if the ACM is comparable. They run so many academic conferences that the list gets its own Wikipedia page [0]. Many are heavy hitters in their respective fields, like SIGGRAPH (graphics), SOSP (systems), and PLDI (programm

Huh! I've only played the original mainframe game. I thought the Infocom releases were just that game split into three—I had no idea about all the new material! I'll check them out.

Yep, this is a hell I've come to know over the past year. You get people trying to build things they really have no business building, not without at least doing their own research and learning first, but the LLM in their editor lets t
