   We’re being deliberate on positioning this as a Mainboard for enabling developers and tinkerers, not a consumer-ready product. As other commenters noted, the idea is to help accelerate the maturity of the RISC-V ecosystem to prepare it for

   I'm happy to help answer questions that folks have on this (though some of them will probably need to be answered by the team at DeepComputing).

   We had to develop a new interface for swappable GPUs to make the graphics card and mainboard co-planar. MXM requires the graphics card to be stacked above the mainboard, which results in really thick laptops. This is part of why MXM is la

   We avoid providing specific numbers because battery life is massively dependent on workload and because we want to let press reviewers share their measured numbers.

   It should be a pretty noticeable improvement if you're coming from 11th Gen. When we send out press units, you'll see reviewers doing comparison reviews across generations.

    Our support team is usually able to respond within 24 hours on weekdays, but if you haven't received a reply in longer than that, check if the response went to spam. Please also let them know about the touchpad.

    Thanks for reporting this. The team is able to reproduce this and is working on fixing it now.

    Yep, you stop noticing the corners pretty quickly. We thought about introducing rounded bezels to match it, but didn't want to introduce bezel fragmentation.

    People have commented on the rest, but on “Also, job posting and application management platforms are usually quiet expensive”, I haven’t found that to be the case. For small startups, ATS (applicant tracking software) is pretty inexpensiv

    My recollection of this is that LPCAMM was a proposal from Dell that they put into the JEDEC standardization process, and LPCAMM2 is the resulting standard, named that way to avoid confusion with the non-standard LPCAMM that Dell trialed on

    Could you share which iOS version/device you're seeing this on? Safari on iOS is one of our main QA paths (and also what I personally use), and we haven't spotted this occurring.

    We had traditional investors who were interested in taking that last $1M. The voting rights were also not a major factor. It really actually is that we want to enable folks in the community to have a stake in the company. This is somethi

    Hi, we agree that the response time on this is unacceptable. I've dug into it and we've now completed and replied with the form. Posting a comment on HN certainly shouldn't be the path to getting a response on an ask from u

    Note that both the keyboard and the touchpad are unique to the Framework Laptop 16. We reused the same keyswitch and keycap structure on the keyboard because the feedback we've gotten on those on Framework Laptop 13 have been almost u
