Sounds like your display scaling is a little out of whack?

I don’t mean to say it’s a showstopper, but it is certainly noticeable to anyone accustomed to using iOS devices. I suspect the situation on Android is better where Google has access to the native platform code. Flutter has a secondary prob

I'm not hating, I'm actually working on a Flutter project currently. I don't understand why we need to pretend like the platform is perfect

Flutter has a long-standing issue where every interaction is subject to a 1-frame delay on iOS (P2 since 2022)… https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/110431 Not to mention the stuff with shader compilatio

I was hoping this would write those god damn CMakeLists.txt for me…

The Aktiia bracelet takes measurements automatically but not continuously. It produces about 1 measurement point every hour.

They’ve just received approval for a monitor that needs no calibration at all, although it’s not commercially available yet, and will probably take another half a decade to reach the US. https://aktiia.com/uk/regulatory

The author called Sundar a McKinsey consultant, not Raghavan. >A quick note: I used “management consultant” there as a pejorative. While he exhibits all the same bean-counting, morally-unguided behaviors of a management consultant, from

That’s not super impressive… CR’s top all-season tire pick under $150, the General Altimax RT43, got an estimated 70,000 miles (112,000 kms) of tread life in its testing.

EV tires usually have poor grip in the interests of low rolling resistance/increased range. This would result in more chirping at the same acceleration. Plus, since there’s no engine, there’s no sound when driving (besides wind) to cov

The answer IMO is using two prusik friction hitches. Easy to slide along the cable by hand when slack, but holds you in place via friction when taut (i.e when you slip). Of course these would be a pain to tie and untie at each anchor point

It’s hard to expect systemic reform with no individual actions.

This would amount to doing free labor to prop up a trillion dollar company’s subpar product. Then again, YouTube is only barely profitable as-is right? And getting people to switch to a more sustainable paid alternative is a non-starter. So

Most of OpenAI comp is in equity… which is worth much less now

As a city slicker, I’ll admit that my appreciation of cars has increased since moving in without one. I enjoy not having to drive for daily tasks, but being able to put a big Costco haul in your trunk is undeniably nice, a lot of outdoor re
