   Often times "Reliability" is calculated as "fraction of cars that have a recall or other unscheduled maintenance during the initial N months of ownership" and I believe Tesla is actually quite high in this regard? https

   Very weird how EVs and ICEs are intermixed. I would expect vastly different results across different drivetrains, and probably even more differences across shape/size platforms (compact, sedan, truck, van, etc.).

   Thanks! It's amazing how the Nitter UX is actually better than Twitter itself (showing proper context)

   Wow I wonder what the sentiment / morale on the inside of OpenAI right now is like.

    And with unified memory, you need to share with the GPU, which will have at least 2x framebuffers at full screen resolution and bit depth, as well as any/all required texture memory, shaders, etc. Likely won't even have anywhere

    Really shows how technically savvy Apple thinks their customers are. Just one more point supporting "Apple products aren't for people who understand technology."

    I'm left wondering if he wrote this under the influence of psychedelics, and if this was an attempt to capture/maintain the insight that he feared he would forget.

    Wow, this is really nice looking. Almost monospaced, and could easily be tweaked into a really nice looking font for programming.

    Writing 'n' instead of 'and' when discussing mathematics is generally a very bad idea. Your example is a good one, but your use of abbreviations in your writing is horrid.

    So you're saying it's not a "tax" per say and that the hardware premiums actually go to R&D on next gen systems? Apple's profit margin says otherwise. :) > Apple net profit margin as of March 31, 2023 is 24.4

    Yeah, very much unlike your comment. Strange, that.

    What's with this kind of "Technical Innovation" video? Synthesized voiceover, royalty-free upbeat stock music background, myriad of grammatical and factual errors, over-hypes a fairly simple device, clearly developed/pr

    What a pretentious bunch of gatekeeping nonsense. Clearly, ESR (and anyone following the tenets of documents like this) are not actually interested in teaching anyone anything. They have a truly transactional perspective on "Questio

    What a bizarre title. Obviously, SimCity has been around for a lot longer than a decade. The original Maxis SimCity launched in 1989.

    Interesting, and I'd love to see some more demos on "traditional" music (Symphonic/Orchestral, Jazz, Beatles, etc.). I'm sure the the highly synthetic and "pure" music used in the demo video sure leads to
