I have a remarkable tablet (e-ink device), on which I handwrite todo's in a specific file. That file is synced to my computer, on which it gets translated to text and exported to an org-mode file and parsed into my org-agenda. I can th

It couldn't have, they've mentioned before the change in business model was out of neccessity. I don't think they wouldn've signed away so much of their rights if they didn't really need that azure hardware either.

Look into memory reflective lcd's, doesn't look quite like e-ink (and for quite a few of them you have to resort to dithering instead of proper greyscale), but they're considerably cheaper and offer the same power benefits. A

IQ test, the sat, and exact mathematics are very different fields though. ChatGPT etc. are very good at "emulating" by sheer force and size logic, exact math doesn't work with "emulation"

sorry, are you looking for rust crates, rust applications, etc.? I don't think rust is any less cross-platform than the alternatives, its all about what the library itself targets. Ripgrep has been my favorite example of rust for years

I'd bet rust is an outlier in that, a lot of languages require more code to do the same things, as a result of being simpler langs (lua). a lot of langs are very easy to shoot yourself with, more lines means more oppurtinity to shoot y

I didn't get why fewer lines of code is better. I don't choose rust because its "shorter", far from it, if anything I choose rust because its very verbose with its syntax, but that syntax conveys a lot of information. An

Interesting that this is done through modifying xash3D, rtx remix looked really nice in the demos they gave but sadly they haven't released it to the public quite yet

As a stock experience, the google pixel phones are unbeatable, pretty much the "reference" edition of android phones. The nothing phone, made by one of 1+'s co-founders, is also fairly clean and has a different set of feature

Quite a few of the FAANG layoffs are from employee retention programs, and a few of these projects were high-profile and open source. The one I'm most interested in is google's fuchsia project, I hope it doesn't lose traction

Every time I'm working on a personal project I boot up neovim and have some fun. I have an extensive neovim (and emacs) configuration. If I need to do anything in a professional environment, I boot up intellij/vscode/whatever

VR isn't good at general computing because noone has really embraced the form factor and given it the attention it needs. The issue is, meta is not doing that. Hopefully the upcoming apple ar/XR/vr stuff will be a bit bette

I was on a camping trip and we used it quite a few times just fine. I find it weird on this thread and the other AirTags how everyone has such varying experiences with the hardware. My AirTags don't work often, everyone else's are

Anything you have thats missing on spotify? For me one of the killer features of spotify is the ability to view and integrate songs on local/NAS storage into playlists, the few foreign tracks I had ripped worked just fine

I've switched to using the pine64 boards for exactly that reason. All of the RPI model <X> boards feel like they're targeting hobbyists who want to build a retropi setup or school project and just need working software. The

Especially over the last few years around most of the east coast, for me Apple Maps has become far better than google maps for everything, except reviews. Especially for biking and public transport as you said.

I can't speak for the Apple Watch, but the O2/BPM readings on some other watches are often dropped/delayed with the operating system taking priority. I was trying to use the heart rate data for a pet project and found its pra

I tried it for a while, it didn't seem to have all the shows I wanted and the UX was worse than quite a few of the anime piracy sites. Of course, anime is a bit of an oddball when it comes to piracy sites, the lack of legal enforcement

Anything that doesn't require the processing power can and should still run on the car, brake by wire is totally fine. I just don't mind if my phone has access to a few more sensors here and there, having CarPlay tell me if my tir

I'm hoping thats what the "apple car" project actually is. Mobile devices are getting very, very powerful. I would love for my phone to handle all the processing for my car in the future.

I was in the same boat, purchased my car with CarPlay because I thought I'd use it just as often as I do in my last car. MBUX is honestly good enough that I don't bother plugging in my phone, it does everything I want, integrates

Apple didn't invent much. Quite a bit of their hardware design is inspired by dieter rams, a lot of their software is inspired by similar features from other operating systems. Most recently, the iOS widget system. What apple does is p

100%. I stopped pirating altogether for a few years because everything I needed was conveniently available, at a low price. I've told multiple people that if anime had a netflix equivalent with nice UX, I would happily pay for it. Sadl
