Phoronix does compilation benchmarks (for the Linux kernel and LLVM), the existing Ryzen chips do perform quite well on them. The i5-8400 is probably the closest thing on the chart to your 8850h. But there are diminishing returns to adding

Basically all adults in the US that grew up prior to the leaded gasoline ban have some degree of lead poisoning.

How would anyone in the software dev industry not fall under the "computer professional" exemption?

DNA profiling technology did exist shortly before the end of the Stasi (the first use in criminal investigation was in 1987 [1]), though presumably they didn't have access to it. [1] http://aboutforensics.co.uk/colin-pi

There are a couple of them, though it depends on what you consider "serious" or not. I think Godot as it is now is reasonably capable for 3D (adequate for what most small indie devs would want to do at least) but it is definitely

Oh they do mean bits, it is indeed completely unusable after you hit the limit and get throttled.

It's not practical to have direct support for Metal because nobody who wants it is volunteering to write and maintain a new backend for it. Godot is a project with limited resources and the Vulkan backend works fine on Apple platforms

I wonder how many hours per day these people are working. With Japanese corporate culture a 4 day workweek could still easily be 50+ hours.

I use KDE on a 9 year old thinkpad and it runs reasonably well, at least much better than GNOME.

The article is basically devoid of content beyond "AMD makes less money than Intel, Zen is good, their marketshare is small but rapidly increasing".

I think it's relevant for open source projects because people might want to contribute to them or just read through the code to see how things work. And of course people will be more interested in doing those things with languages they

You act like nobody in the Netherlands has a car. Most households have both a car and a few bicycles (except in a few cities), they just don't use the cars for everything like Americans tend to.

The Mi Band 4 seems to tick those boxes. Small, $40,~3 week battery life.

Even the print ads seem to have gotten way more intrusive over the past few years. Amazon puts ads on their shipping boxes. I got a fortune cookie in a restaurant the other day with an ad printed on the back of the fortune!

Seems pretty normal where I live. Shingles are like $1/square foot but the labor costs of course vary wildly depending on location.

There definitely are people who confuse red and green, I know one. He really hates all those battery chargers that change color from red to green when they finish charging because he cannot distinguish them at all.

Color temperature refers to the color of an ideal black body radiator at that actual temperature[1]. And the hotter a black body radiator gets, the more blue the light output is. ~5800K is the color of sunlight because that is the physical

HFCs are already being phased out in favor of HFOs (though you could certainly argue that this should be happening more quickly), is there a strong reason to go for ammonia based systems over HFO?

Are you suggesting there's proof that Google Assistant on Android devices is always listening even if it's turned off in settings?

You're also four and a half times more likely to be killed by "Firearms, type not stated" than someone's bare hands or feet, surely some fraction of those are rifles.

Google does love pointless region locking but this is probably due to RF certification requirements from each country's equivalent to the FCC.

A large chunk of the midwest is like that. Housing is very cheap in the small-medium cities (and the big cities are still a lot cheaper than the coasts) and you'll usually find a few local software companies + satellite offices of bigg

What makes the economy obviously not a fixed sized pie? Every dollar that Michael Dell's son has came out of somebody else's pocket.

Yes you can, but this person needs the python2 behavior in python3 which pretty much requires selectively replacing / with //.
325.
by opencl 7y ago
2to3 does NOT handle the change in division behavior. There is no automated way to do so because python2 only does floor division sometimes and it's decided at runtime based on the arguments being ints or not.

You can already use phones without CDMA radios on Verizon, they're requiring all new phones to support VoLTE and axing the CDMA network entirely next year.

It's just the brand for their super low end stuff, similar to how Intel is still using the Pentium name.

Even with the mitigations that chip is significantly faster than an athlon 200GE, without them it's more than twice as fast (in geekbench at least).

Who has a car without an alarm? Almost everything manufactured in at least the past 2 decades has one installed from the factory, at least in the US.
