That's a newer representation, mostly because storage companies always (mis)represented their storage... I don't think any ISPs really misrepresent k/K in kilo bits/bytes

Even then, it required specialized hardware on the ISP side to connect above 33.6kbps at all, and almost never reliably so. I remember telling most of my friends just to get/stick with the 33.6k options. Especially considering the ov

Even then... you reach a point where any additional quality or craftsmanship offers no more value. Aesthetics can have some arbitrary value, but even then it's a matter of taste.

I get that... I didn't like it in BeOS either... It just feels off, the more time spent on more recent alternatives (Windows, Mac, Linux+Cosmic/Gnome/Kde...). Similarly, trying to use OS/2's desktop also feels more

While I think better Linux integration and improving WINE is probably better time spend... I do think there's some opportunity for ReactOS, but I feel it would have to at LEAST get to pretty complete Windows 7 compatibility (without

Or... it could be my general vision loss issues in that I can't hardly see... I can't make out a native pixel as it is. I understand that if it had 2x the PPI that it might handle rendering better and that may help, some with vis

Funny, but I wrote some environment initialization and setup scripts that you just unzip to a new dev desktop, and run the first powershell script, and it will work through (have to reboot after a couple installs), but it goes through, then

Hmm... I'm relatively new, but I've been using utility scripts in a run/ directory in my project that will spin up containers based on compose, and that includes dev containers volume mapped to my host directories in a given

I have trouble making out details on my 45" UWQHD (3440x1440) displays... so I don't see much point.. maybe slightly easier to read typefaces... I am already zooming 25% in most of the time. On the plus side, I can comfortably fit

I like having archive/history tables. I often do similar with job queues when persisting to a database, in this way the pending table can stay small and avoid full scans to skip the need for deleted records... Aside, another idea that

It's possible you're rendering more than just a simple 404, such as an SPA response or other result as part of an application response that may leak more information... I think it's not a severe issue in most cases, and maybe

Doesn't even necessarily need to be CUDA compatible... there's OpenCL and Vulkan as well, and likely China will throw enough resources at the problem to bring various libraries into closer alignment to ease of use/development

Agreed, there's nothing at all wrong with a company that has a comfortable market fit than makes a pretty consistent $X/yr with Y employees/staff. Not everything needs to be the next big VC Unicorn. A lot of these ideas cou

I'm mixed on HTMX for going a step beyond interactive forms, it's fine... but much more and I find HTMX and server-side Blazor for that matter really janky... button events with a round trip to the server can just feel wrong. FWIW

I used to use prototype (and sometimes scriptaculous)... Then came IE8 and broke the world on me. For anyone that didn't know, IE8 implemented native JSON.(parse/stringify) methods, and the second parameter is a hydrator/deh

I'm mixed on this... there are always other actual people that will have matching voices or looks. Are they now effectively illegal for looking/sounding like they do? IIRC, works have been sued for actors looking/sounding li
