A few things. Up until now Anki was not a business and was not meant to be profitable. AnkiWeb also does not support an unlimited amount of data. It's evident that their storage requirements aren't infinite. They aggressively cull

This is the correct take. It's over for Anki. Even assuming a best case scenario where the status quo remains and AnkiWeb continues to be "free", all the valuable data collected in AnkiWeb is now ripe for paywalling & pot

This scheduler takes advantage of sched_ext which is a relatively recent kernel capability. I really thought that EEVDF was the last word on scheduling in Linux, at least for the short-medium term. Apart from trolling I am really curious wh

If you are storing your data in a filesystem like ZFS then the risk is lower since you'll know you have a bad sector long before you attempt to deduplicate. But I otherwise share your same concerns and I'm eager to hear from other

How difficult would it be to adapt this to Cantonese? It is a surprisingly difficult language to learn. It has more tones than Mandarin plus comparatively less access to learning resources (in my experience)

It is sad to see how far Anthropic and OpenAI have strayed from their research roots, that a pitiful manuscript like this can pass muster.

This matches my experience. 2019 was about the last time you could walk into a Uniqlo, grab an item at random and walk out with something reasonable. Just after that we had Covid and the everything bubble which broke a lot of companies. Uni

Rather than focus on brand, I'd recommend developing a better eye and learning how to identify durable, high quality fabrics. While looking at the brand might be a good heuristic to rely on in the short term, the temptation is too high

Not sure why this is being downvoted. It is very much true in my opinion, especially so for the big coastal metro areas.

No it's provided as part of the Android OS. Very simple and intuitive to use and has been for the past 10 years since I started using it. The only thing that was annoying initially was that you couldn't pass through the WiFi that

By OS I take it this includes a kernel and is a full replacement of the native Kobo OS (Nickel)? If so, then I wonder if it's possible to get Kobos to boot directly into KOReader.

Private trackers as I understand it, are still a thing in the mid 2020s. Did a replacement that matches (or surpasses) What.cd not pop up in the meantime? I'm just wondering how a strong community like that was struck a deathblow. It&#

Maybe I have it wrong but the very essence of "engineering" is managing the constraints of (1) providing an acceptable solution to a problem (2) within some fixed parameters of time and cost. The code may look "bad" in a

My understanding based on my readings of the previous post is there are no hardware level checks. SSDs need to be power cycled every so often and the integrity of the filesystem needs to be checked via something akin to zfs scrub. This shou

Concur on this. I always thought that Debezium only supported MySQL binlog since that is the world I operate in. I did not know that it was also an option for Postgres CDC via the WAL. Now that I know, I would recommend defaulting to it. Ev

As a recent Linux to MacOS convert, I have been eyeing Time Machine as a simple backup solution. From reading the comments here it sounds like this is a far-fetched idealistic goal which is disappointing. This seems to have not always been
