At least they say USB keyboards are supported. SmileBASIC on the 3DS is great until you realize you have to use the stylus for all input. I think I’d rather go back to TI basic on a calculator at that point.

This is very interesting. I found my Surface Pro 4 had a very audible buzzing while my 12.9 inch iPad Pro didn't have any sound. It could be that the latter is better sealed so it muffles the sound effectively.

I think these wide ratios became popular, not because of video but because of ability to ship less screen and still claim to have a certain diagonal size. Saying 13" at 16:9 is much less area than a 3:4 screen at the same diagonal meas

The patch that was under question was related to a workaround for Meltdown, which makes AMD's note regarding the lack of necessity in agreement with the paper. The Spectre paper seems to be a bit less specific on how platforms might di

It's a unikernel of sorts called Erlang on Zen (the VM implementation they wrote is called Ling). It does not use the BEAM runtime so you'll likely need to recompile the Erlang code but otherwise, Erlang is a simple language so I

It's been steadily and continuously improved. Some of the latest improvements still require an insider build but win32 process interaction just works now (in my experience).

This looks like iA Writer meets org-mode. It looks nice but the platform limitation is a bit discouraging for those of us that work across multiple platforms on a daily basis.

I can verify that the issue I saw has been fixed. Now that's the kind of turn around time that I like to see!

I tested using plain text mode for this reason. Definitely a gotcha in other editors which support this too.

It seems to work but it does render certain ligatures incorrectly on OS X for me. For example, <* is rendered as the <> ligature and <- is rendered as </. Since it's a dev build, I'm sure it will take some iron

I found this link handy: https://gist.github.com/ferd/af9abf6b3600d2d7f08dba58fdfb514... There's certainly a lot of room for improved documentation in this area. I'd even buy a book on this topic.

As far as I've seen, it used to be a heavily modified version of cowboy v1 [1]. I'm not sure what they're using now. [1]: https://github.com/heroku/cowboyku

Small detail but it's an Erlang/OTP application which supports building HTTP, HTTP/2, and web socket services on top of Ranch (a TCP connection management library by the same author). Ranch makes it easy to manage TLS setup a

I believe Apple has adopted the BoringSSL fork that Google started. I bet this code is there for legacy reasons.

I don't think that is the case for this particular issue. There may be other reported SMT bugs (still some instability) but here it has to be a pair of HTs: if one hyperthread is in a cpu-bound loop of any kind (can be in use

I've seen some work like this with 4coder. Having extensions written with native code that is dynamically linked makes this sort of thing make more sense if you want to minimize lag. 4coder is still very alpha at this point is easy to

I didn't claim cross-dc consistency. I said failover, which is shockingly hard to make many competitors do. The key here is that only one DC can take writes but the failover works transparently with your client (also with clear SLAs).

Having evaluated both, I'd say Cloud Spanner is quite a bit behind in some regards. It's not that Spanner itself can't do something but that Cloud Spanner hasn't productized some important features like multi-datacenter

That model is backwards. If there is one thing iOS got right, it's the permission prompt. Nobody reads those lists and it's hard to know what the intent is without context in the app. Having the app ask on first use makes much mor

ECC is great for detecting errors more than correcting them. Then one can do thorough memtests and decide if it's time to replace memory modules. It doesn't really prevent problems (there are unrepairable ECC errors too) as much a

This is partly because they don't always take off with full tanks which allows for shorter runways and/or safer takeoff. Depending on the ordinance that a jet may have to carry, it starts making more sense to stay a bit lighter un
