I bought the 9 Pro instead of the 10 Pro, because there is no (even unofficial) Lineage build yet. Apparently they stopped supporting a tool that was needed for ROM development.

I don't know. I am not a native speaker, but I think it is ok, maybe even better. We have gotten used to 'OK', despite its questionable origin (or origin story).

No, 2030. Lignite is West Germany also in 2030. Lignite in East Germany is set for 2038, but currently in discussion to also move forward to 2030.

I've read that a number of times now, but I have trouble matching it to my perceptions. Can you point to a specific website where you notice that slowness and then describe what action is slower? (Initial load, clicking stuff, scrollin

Peter Zeihans insistance on birth rate is a bit silly. Most developed countries, including the USA are in the 1.5-1.7 range. There are outliers like France that are higher. There isn't this huge demographic difference between Europe

CPUs do have a 'hardware' (I guess microcode) implementation in the 80387 era FPU. But it isn't used. One reason is that the software implementation is faster in modern floating point code. I don't know about GPUs but I

If time were symmetric, wouldn't that mean instead of causality (future is influenced by the past) and retrocausality (past is influenced by the future), there is no preference and in effect no causality at all? A&B are necessarily

I recently decided against a 1+10 Pro for a 9 Pro. Price was a factor, as was the fact that they are not massively different in capabilities. But the final nail in the coffin was alternative rom support. Both are not officially supported by

And if I remember correctly, the primary motive for the Prussian pension system when it was introduced was to reduce youth unemployment by getting the elderly out of the way. I think still today that is a deciding factor, as some economies

Oh, I am sorry. You are right. It's not intended as a smear word at all. Thanks for your explanation.

People grow (in height) for the first ~1.5 decades of their life, and then stop growing. It appears to me that there is more to it.

I guess you shouldn't let it come to burnout. This is probably a good measure to prevent burnout.

I just switched from a OnePlus 5 to a 9 Pro a few weeks back, and it is a noticable improvement. But you are right, while I was on the 5 I thought performance isn't a problem.

E3 is only relevant to decimal numbers. I don't see how computing can benefit from it, unless base conversion for human interaction is a particularly large part of the problem. And there is a reason why stuff like BCD isn't used a

I heard an interesting philosophical discussion many years back, where it was stated that we are morally obligated to outlaw non-self-driving cars as soon as it is proven that self-driving cars kill fewer people. It is not so easy to argue

What you are doing is interpreting everything as you like, not as it is meant. You paint yourself as the victim when this all started with your baseless accusations. If you don't like people reacting to your accusations, you should not

One could argue about the nuances between predisposition and ability of a population (half of the population). But saying that you don't expect a certain understanding of a topic on HN seems to imply that you think HN is an echochamber

I think the secret to get the C2 splines that pass through the control points right is to not just increase the degree but also add two more points, i.e. not 4 but 6 segments.

Solving problems once and for all is very hard. Our track record with that is less than stellar. I agree with you, Russia needs to be defeated. But that is for moral reasons, not because it is overall the best economic solution for the worl
