This isn't my niche but this makes sense at face value. I couldn't find any sales data for either processor but maybe the DIY market is bigger than I know.

In theory this makes sense, but reviews all suggested that the price proposition for the APUs didn't really work and now AMD has released a laptop part that fills the same niche. DIY folks won't be able to get their hands on the

So what was AMD thinking with its release of the 8700G and 8600G APUs, and is it planning to phase them out? They come with the 780M and 680M processors, respectively, and both are outperformed by the 980M at a lower power draw [0]. Theore

ditto, I bought a 2020 SE refurbished for <$200 and it's been totally fine. If it were better, I'd be using it more, which I don't want.

There was controversy in 2012 at the U.S. Olympic Trials when Allyson Felix & Jeneba Tarmoh finished neck and neck -- basically the cameras at the time couldn't make out the difference [0]. I think that was pretty hard on the athle

I am not an industry insider or analyst, but IMO, the proper time to take a hard look at the business, and make cuts like this, was probably right around when Apple's silicon got released to glowing reviews. If Apple could get better p

I was planning to say "I used an AI search tool" and cite undermind.ai in my methods section. I think that won't raise any eyebrows in the review process but we'll see.

not for me. I don't know much about the emergence of freshwater, but if I learn at some point that humans were in the Americas 50,000 years ago --- perhaps they used rudimentary rafts? -- I will not be shocked.

I mean in terms of bounds of years. In other words, how much uncertainty surrounds our new estimates.

Whenever there is research showing that X thing occurred Y years before we previously thought, the big thing we should update on is our confidence intervals. This research pushes back our estimate of freshwater 500M years. What will the ne

I favor the general point here, but the leading anecdote doesn’t really fit with the lessons learned. A government organization generally does not need an innovation doctrine to avoid being outcompeted because they are a monopoly provider.

a person buying a condo in Vancouver generally isn't purchasing land, and if they are, then yes, the land might appreciate even as the thing built on it degrades over time due to a bunch of natural processes (e.g. wood decays)

Unfortunately, the skill of being trainable/educable is very unevenly distributed in the population and very hard to assess from afar. Instead, companies hire based on whether you've already been trained/educated in how to
