I would be concerned about power efficiency / battery life considering the type of rendering it's doing. That would be cool to get some info on.

I'm prone to losing sunglasses, so some years ago I went through the process of testing out a dozen Alibaba sunglasses to find the best ones. I settled on one that's $4/pair, sturdy, and looks/feels/functions just l

That's crazy. I would venture to say that most workplaces have security cameras, many with sound recording, that can be accessed at any time by management or building security. But commercial airline pilots can't be recorded?

$1.8B lost to crypto hacks in 2023. Hard to say how much of that is North Korea, but it's a nontrivial amount.

Based on this observation I posed this question on /r/AskMen some time ago. "Would you be castrated to live 15 years longer?" - overwhelmingly the answer was no.

In the effulgent firmament of your discursive exposition, juxtaposing the Go paradigm with the antediluvian 'new Basic' edifice, I find myself enveloped in an ethereal nebula of syntactic opulence and metaphorical grandiloquence.

Or look at it like a kitchen... Some people get every as-seen-on-TV gizmo to make caramelizing their coconuts easier, but professional chefs just need a good knife and a cast iron pan.

Great investigation and data. While the M3 Pro looked pretty disappointing at first because of the loss in P core count, it looks like the huge strides have been made with the E core performance, so it's not the downgrade that one migh

Google's misleading demonstration video shows they can't be trusted to honestly evaluate their own model. Until we can actually get our hands on Ultra and try for ourselves, I wouldn't give too much credit to their numbers.

In college I made a 1D space invaders game - but it ran on an Arduino (with one physical 'shoot' button) and was played on an 8foot RGB LED light strip. I had it mounted on a wall and I would catch students and professors playing

Not sure where you got the idea what nobody offers crypto insurance. Lloyd's of London, one of the world's oldest and largest insurers, offers crypto insurance[1], just as one example. You also have decentralized options like Nexu

Apple's memory configurations for the M3 are confusing and expensive. Charging $400 for an additional 18GB of RAM is ridiculous. If they halved their memory upgrade prices maybe I would consider it, but as-is it's very hard to jus

The tech bro stereotype has only emerged in the past couple of decades, and even so is mostly isolated to the United States. Doctors are still the go-to "money and status" profession for most of the world.

The reality is that chronic diseases vary greatly from person to person, and a doctor just doesn't have the time/patience/first-hand experience to treat your disease optimally. That's why their best option in the 20 minu
