Ireland has the same problem, they're waiting on getting another interconnect to france online before building out more windmills. There's enough offshore wind to power the whole island, but it's not predicable enough to powe

Maybe I'm wrong but it seems like you would only want to parse partial values for objects and arrays, but not strings or numbers. Objects and arrays can be unbounded so it makes sense to process what you can, when you can, whereas a st

I'll take the other side of this argument and state that people are interested in higher graphics, BUT they expect to see an equally higher simulation to go along with it. People aren't excited for GTA6 just because of the graph

One thing about bluetooth and phones that I really wish that apple/google/bluetooth group could resolve is a way for a device to advertise that it needs attention and then bubble that up to the nearest phone that is registered for

They've also been pretty hostile around video transcoding which seems like a baffling position to take given their audience. I still have an older tv that can't deal with h.265 and I'm refusing to upgrade to the latest versio

How do kids get pocket money in Sweden? I can't imagine grandparents handing over prepaid debit cards to 8 years old to go buy candy at the neighborhood store?

I don't know anything about Tesla cars or how good they are, and I don't know anything about BYD cars or how good they are. But I can say that 4 door BYD cars are advertised around here for less then £20,000. While 4 door Teslas a

It feels like the end is in sight for dedicated graphics chips in consumer devices. Phones, consoles, and now Apple silicon are proving that SoC designs with unified memory and focused thermals are a winning strategy for efficiency and spee

The concept of reservoirs and emergency supply seems to be completely at odds with privatisation. What private company is going to spend loads of money to build deep reservoirs that are stressed only once every 5 or 10 years. None. They&#x2

My best guess is it's related to thermal control. The vents on macbooks are right under the hinge, and the vents are blocked and opened to different degrees based on the angle of the lid.

It feels like Google should be able to come up with a revenue figure for search ai results right? How many people do a search but don't click on any links because they just read the ai blurb, but advertisers are still charged for being

Apple has always made it painful to step too far off the path with their tooling and frameworks and cocoapods was not immune to that pain. I'm grateful of what they made and the pressure they put on Apple to make things better, but I w

Do we need a new term to describe "unified memory" where the cpu and gpu are still isolated from each other and memory needs to be allocated for one or the other and "unified memory" where the cpu and gpu can both access

I don't know about iOS, but on Android I have access to Family Link which means I can control what apps my kids can run off the app store, and I can control whether they can access explicit websites (according to google) or have free a

I remember doing the calculations on the Nestle plant that caused a big storm a few years ago. The plant sat on several acres of land, which if converted into an alfalfa farm, would have consumed the same amount of water. The surrounding ar

Yeah I was gonna say the same thing. So in a base-6 counting system primes must be very intuitive to spot. Although also expanding it out to base-12 shows the primes always fall into 4 specific rows.

I hope they are successful. What I appreciate about DF is their ability to explain what techniques the developers chose to use in the rendering process. Game engines are so buzzwordy these days and they're often good about showing in t

Do we have a reasonable definition for what intelligence is? Is it like defining porn, you just know it when you see it?

I completely agree. Android devices already have rudimentary access controls for kids through Family Link. I'd much prefer governments put pressure on Google, Apple and Microsoft to provide full control of locking down devices, apps an

The reason I brought up this argument is because this exact scenario is happening all over the UK and Ireland right now. One of the houses my wife and I looked at purchasing was built about 20 minutes outside Belfast on old farmland that wa

LVT should be incorporated with an occupancy tax, it's the only fair way to fund government services. If I own a farm, and my neighbor sells their farm to turn into a housing estate with 99 single family homes, then it is fair to say t

This clearly demonstrates that the developer doesn't know what they're talking about. If anything, android is more secure because you can A. Sideload an app so that google play store doesn't know you've installed i

I'm right there with you. A 27" 5K 120Hz is my endgame monitor. I would be perfectly happy spending my working hours in 5K, and then switching to my gaming pc to play in 1440p mode.

Shogo had a mod called Squishie where one player was normal size and on a team by themselves, and all the other players were tiny and on the other team. It was the most fun I've ever had at a LAN party in those early 00's. I'
