Yeah, a quarter of the price, a quarter of the screen, a quarter of the RAM, a quarter of the SSD. Of course the price is also a quarter. The CPU isn’t the only part of that ludicrous $5000 price point

Kinda proving my point then? Power usage 15x higher and $300 is just for a card that is probably as big as a whole Mac Mini. Now add the rest of the components and the prices, wattage and size shoots up exactly as described.

The reality is that Amazon makes big bucks off the complete opacity of their costs. If you offer a UI where a click costs money, you should also display price. But that's just my opinion. Maybe others like buying things from a menu wit

I guess it's not bad for a fanless 10-watt SoC the size of a stamp on an entry-level portable computer in a browser. To get that kind of performance nearly 10 years ago in a desktop GPU, I bet you would need a whole lot of dollars, w

By looking at the YouTube homepage when logged out, you get a better idea of what kind of content wins on YouTube. Hint: It’s not high quality. YouTube couldn't care less about random creators like this one that don’t optimize for eyeb

Speed is half of the picture sometimes. I once managed to book a flight on Google Flights and basically completed the purchase in less than a minute. An airline’s website could load instantly and still wouldn’t compare to just having a dece

Doubt that. Popularity comes with heaps of PRs, some useful some less. If anyone used a JSON parser that took 4 minutes to parse a file you bet the author would know by the time the 100th user comes around. I had a tiny barely-used detectio

It depends on the channel, really. I remember once I was sitting at an eatery in the Philippines (basically a cafeteria with immediately-available food) and the TV just played commercials from the time I sat down until I left.

This is why people should use commonly-available packages instead of rolling their own version of whatever dumb algorithm they think they can write. This happens all the time. Bugs have been fixed by others, but everyone is too smart to use

Horrific but people keep buying it. From Jira’s owner POV, Jira is pretty great.

"Zero bug policy" means: Let's build in a way that avoids new bugs and regressions (via testing, for example) and prioritize bug fixing over new features. Essentially the antithesis of "Move fast, break things" It&#

I have 16GB, I haven't done much today, I use Safari with 7 tabs and have Spotify and GitHub Desktop open. Memory used: 10GB Uptime: 1d I don't know, feels like OP is right. 16GB is not enough in 2021, especially since I my comput

Without going too deep into specs, most phones nowadays are more powerful than 90s workstations and can run software. If that’s not a pocket computer I don’t know what is.

This solves another problem I had, so I’ll try it, but it’s completely unrelated to edit history.

If I have to commit my whole undo history then I’m using git very wrong. I commit (even temporarily) to save progress, but only when it makes sense to so. Sometimes I don’t know whether I’ll need this specific version again in the future.

Does anyone know if there’s a good way to do this in VS Code? I often hold cmd-z until I get to some version and copy code from it. Ideally I’d like to have a separate window where I can see a previous version without affecting the current

My understanding is that California has it and that you could use a CA proxy to get that easy path for NYC. I haven’t needed it yet.

If you have a minimally-popular extension with minimally-interesting permissions you can expect an email with offer to buy or even a stream of emails. With money on the line, you have to be either unaware of the risks or lack conscience.

I mean the feature itself has been vetted, i.e. it wouldn’t be in the language if enough people didn’t find it reasonably useful. TLA is a substantial feature implementation-wise so I expect TC39 to have thought “yeah that’s still worth it”

Basically everything you wrote is wrong. Loading multiple files is never more efficient because compression works on a file at a time in that case, plus subdependencies start loading only after their parents finish downloading. This is CSS’

The use case is that it exists: It’s already been vetted and it’s part of the language. Not supporting it means you don’t support the entire language.

So you’re the one writing everything from scratch even though the wheel has already been invented and perfected and tested over years by many developers. Also your website is serving dozens of cascading files instead of a single minified on

How do you handle cache in your extensions? There's no way to store information temporarily except with sessionStorage and cookies.

I’ve been a fish user forever, but the lack of support for sudo !! has never made sense to me. I’m glad to finally know that there’s a 2-keystroke alternative.

As a JavaScript developer I feel kinda sad when I see how compact and clean such python and ruby examples are. You can shoot a thousand modules in JS and you still never get here.

I have a related question: How do AC boxes and air purifiers interact? Do they work together or against each other? Would an AC unit keep reintroducing impure particles (like mold) nullifying the purifier’s work?

Dropdowns/selects/menus are the standard way to chicken out of designing proper UIs. Unless you have dozens of choices, you can probably do better than a dropdown.
