Does anybody know how to test if a monitor is compatible with that? And is it plug and play?

Well, there is overhead in testing additional windows versions, the libraries you use may use only deprecated SSL versions, and one needs to be careful not to connect them to the public internet because of unpatched security issues. And it

In a lawsuit, Google would have a hard time defending themselves, as the rule this employee ignored was illegal. On the other hand, most US contracts can be terminated with 2 weeks notice, in which case employees are sent home immediately (

Actually I agree with you. My point was just that the comment I responded to was downvoted, and on the face of it, just because people disagreed.

why is this downvoted? It is a legitimate question. You can comment if you have a counterargument.

For some background on why compilers do this, read this gist by ryg. A big issue is we write 32 bit code that runs on 64 bit architectures. https://gist.github.com/rygorous/e0f055bfb74e3d5f0af20690759...

And hopefully Voyager 2’s measurements will confirm this. I don’t know how long we need to wait though.

The “ideal” is not yet reached: the judge rejected a motion to dismiss, there is no verdict yet. And then there’s appeal. Amazon has deep pockets.

I regret that the discussion about message encryption is so black and white. Encryption is being used to evade prosecution for crimes such revenge porn, CSAM and criminal conspiracy. For one, I would not mind if encryption was forbidden for

I agree about having a DSL. It may not need to be low level, you could have an array language like APL/J. But glsl would work for me too, the important thing is to lure developers to expose parallelism.

Again an article trying to sell a product/technology without bothering to explain upfront what it is, or what the acronym stands for. I can gather bits and pieces from how CXL compares to existing tech, but why keep me guessing?

That usb protocol tester looks nice. I recently tested what cable/adapter charged my old iPad the fastest. I suspected cheap clone cables to be worse but from USB A, all performed the same at around 11-12 watts. The best was the macboo

It is a new design, not a direct competitor for nVidia’s flagship. And there are lots more applications for AI than LLMs.

How about downgrading all connections from said proxies to http 1.1? This can be done in coordination, but it ought not to be too hard to embed such ‘graylisting’ functionality in a webserver. (No I don’t expect any response but I am just l

It is not just that details are scant. If you’re unfamiliar with the company, there is little to indicate what they are selling. It kind of defeats the idea of viral marketing.

How? I suppose the most effective way is to have those proxies attack each other. But don’t, it’s likely illegal.

I was assuming that it is programmed, or instructed to do so. Which thought leads me to wonder whether you can instruct an LLM to weigh how certain it is in how it phrases it’s answer.

The neutron stars that the article uses to explain the observed antimatter all must spin to cause the radiation observed. They would appear as pulsars to some observer, not necessarily us here on earth.

Pulsars(rotating neutron stars) and black holes are two possible outcomes when a large star is burned up and implodes. When there’s enough mass, you get a black hole. When there is less, you can get a neutron star: all mass converted to neu

The article is really vague. Extraordinary claims should come with extraordinary evidence. That said, could it be that the ad has its own JavaScript that does its spying for the time it is visible on the page? Can adds do that?

My point is that people are better at remembering and applying specific rules. And it is my perception that people involved in software development like explicit rules. This is partly due to the exponential growth (and thus low level of exp

If this verbiage is only in the introduction, it will not carry much weight. People, and especially IT people like rules, that you can indiscriminately apply.

This is, in a way, both a statement of fact as well as sarcastic. There is a whole range of computer systems, from very open, general purpose, to closed. Apple thinks phones are closed special purpose systems, but like the OP, many of us do
