This list is just sad. I was thinking about what else could I say, but it's just sad. There's no area listed with an European solution that's comfortably in the top 3 in the world in its field. Maybe it is because this list i

I don’t think that what you’re doing is very common, but it’s not uncommon either. What you need to do this is to work in an environment where not being productive is not harmful. There are plenty of environments like this. For example, not

Imagine a large system that has lots of log.DEBUG statements in its code. If you turn on DEBUG logging, then it logs, say, 10 TB/day. This is a meaningful cost for most organisations, also it is hard to search. Also, you mostly don&#x2

CPU load is not CPU usage. Load is basically “number of processes waiting to be scheduled to run”. If load=cpu count then you can’t schedule more processes, your system runs at maximum capacity (although it might mean that the cores wait on

No. More accurately: with very large heaps the default performance characteristics of the GC might be different than what you’d like it to be. For example you might get huge throughput but occasional long GC pauses. But it’s all tunable.

This is not true. A billion hurts - it’s many people’s bonuses, etc. Amazon is all about margins, they’re fighting teeth and nails for saving money wherever they can. Their efficiency comes from the fact that everything matters to them, and

I use it all the time as a temporary scratchpad or clipboard. It opens very quickly, it doesn’t have anything else other than a text area. Not sure what else should I use :) VSC? Opens too slow. Sticky notes? Not sure, slow and too complex

For example routing algorithms used to change railroad traffic in case of a problem with a junction or track.

The uneven distribution part is interesting, especially because it compares Apple Maps to Google Maps. I think “unevenness” shows what’s in the main focus for a company: Google Maps are great almost everywhere, but you can’t buy a Google Pi

You're correct (I couldn't look it up and wanted a safe figure that still proves my point :) )

There are reviews where they actually burn through the battery in an hour. This is not surprising: the M1 Max model can consume 70 watts, plus the display consumes tens of watts in HDR mode.

Yes. It's really painful. Imagine a 5 year old code base that doesn't even have technical debt: it's a manifestation of the technical debt itself. It's hundreds of thousands of lines of code, mostly with "emergent b

Those are just normal Windows 11 requirements, related to TPM and other hardware features.

It's really low impact though. Even if your rig consumes a kW, you're still not driving anywhere (in a car that consumes at least an order of magnitude more), or going out to a restaurant (that's air conditioned), etc.

Many people note their passwords down in eg. a text document. Not a great practice, but password management is a pain for most people. So when they do that, their editor might auto-capitalize the first character.

I'm not sure that 'banning' and 'changing the algorithm so that it doesn't pop up' is meaningfully different. We can just assume that YT hasn't banned this content, but it never ever shows up in recommenda

My 3.5 year old Garmin can easily track activity for 18 hours with normal GPS mode (high accuracy) and probably much longer with power saving (less frequent data recording). I don't think it's a great smartwatch, but I don't
