Well, just wait till they benchmark the M4 Max a week later.

Can you pay a few months' advance rent to a private landlord (e.g. look for short term rentals, pay for 3-6 months upfront)? Or just move into a house with roommates for the first year or two?

Probably not? I can't really tell a difference between the M1, M2, and M3 machines I've had. There are some spec upgrades for peripherals connectivity, though (Thunderbolt, Wifi, external monitors), if that matters to you. And the

It's a better coder than I'll ever be. Better person than many. Not quite as human – yet. All in all, seems fine. 7/10.

> media codecs are often updated as part of the OS I thought that was mainly true in the Apple world. Does that apply to Windows and Linux too? (As in, I thought many browsers implement their own codecs)

I grew up at the tail end of gopher, and kinda wish I saw it in its heyday. HTTP and HTML are so complicated. I still think it'd be nice if there were a text-focused alternative internet... even if not gopher, WAP ( https://e

If a computer/browser is so old it can't support WebP, it probably also can't support modern HTTPS/TLS requirements. How do they even check out?
940.
by solardev 2y ago
Because it's Google. Apple in particular didn't want to play nice for many years and tried to pitch HEIC support instead (or AVIF these days). WebP came out in 2010, right when the whole mobile app vs web app thing was heating up

It really depends on your specific needs (your prescription, tolerance for dryness, cleaning preferences, etc.). Any optometrist would give you trial pairs to test out before you buy a multi-month supply. In general glasses would probably b

Yeah, I understand. I was just arguing it might be more trouble than it's worth. Look into delta encoding and https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_differencing and xdelta Edit: more modern might be https:/&#

Wow, this is... underwhelming. Some text summaries for apps nobody use, and minor Siri improvements that bring it up to par where Google Assistant was 5-10 years ago? Even the "do you want to change it, or send it?" prompt is stra

I'm a web dev (primarily frontend) with an undergrad environmental science degree, and would love to help in some way. I've often thought of making this exact game myself, but it was too big a project. I would love to see if could

Online videos are lossily compressed. If you record them, either you do so losslessly (which will be huge) or you recompress them and lose quality. Plus you have to deal with network buffering, notifications, alarms, etc., not to mention ha

Can you use a software solution like Pushbullet? https://www.pushbullet.com/ You install it on a real Android phone and then it's supposed to let you send and receive SMS from another device, acting as a proxy of sorts

What kinda depth are you missing from DSP and Satisfactory? And what do you mean by "camera"? There's also Shapez 1 and 2, which is like the essence of Factorio abstracted into shapes and colors. Shapez 2 has more mining and

Cultural influences matter a lot too. Even if the parents past down certain genes, a lot of that can be suppressed by environmental or cultural factors, everything from lifestyle to propaganda.

It's different when you're randomly drafting conscripts from the overall population though, vs having "brave" genes self-select into mortal combat before they can reproduce.

Gotta wonder what happens if aggression is bred out of the population genetics, then the aliens/AI/lost tribes/more isolated countries attack. As the world moves back to increased nationalism, some cultures are increasingly m
