There's also very little reason to develop GPU's when a 80C51 can calculate the same things. What's with the negative attitude towards exploratory research?

I have never seen a PDP-6 in its natural habitat (only in zoos) so take this with a grain of salt, but I'm pretty sure the PDP-6 is not a rhetorical device.

It should be possible in theory, as long as both use the same communication interface. In practice, I think getting it to work on just one kernel is already a huge amount of work.

There is no way to answer that question, period. Neither the term "psychology" nor the term "sociology" is defined in the text (and the terms are used in union, not constrasted), so to have any hope of answering at all

I'm not convinced. The latest Battlemage benchmarks I've seen put the B580 at the same performance as the RTX 4060 (which is a two years old entry-level card) but with 50% more power consumption (80W vs 125W average). It's go

I don't think that's an apt comparison, given that Microsoft and Apple were more direct competitors than Intel and Nvidia; the latter have a more symbiotic relationship. I think the rationale is closer to the competitor of my comp

Isn't both-sidesing also a bad-faith weaponization of discourse? Make your own argument rather than demanding someone else makes it for you.

Nobody has their index finger on the F when using wasd navigation. The reason wasd was chosen is because of the position of ctrl, alt and space (also common in games): with the hand on esdf, the ctrl and alt keys are quite hard to reach; bu

"select all files" was just one key: * (actually, it was invert selection -- so assuming no files were selected beforehand). Pressing + and Enter would select one file, then try to edit/run the next one?

To me, "canonical" feels more descriptive whereas "orthodox" has a prescriptive connotation. But I'm also ESL, so not sure if that's just me or common in any/all English-speaking countries.

Why would this not be ethical to study? It's not like the researchers are taking an active role in creating this situation. In fact, I would say it is more unethical not to research this, given that we already know the PFAS will read

But that 47-day lifetime is enforced by the certificate authority, not by the browser, right? So a bad actor can still issue a multi-year certificate for itself, and in the absence of side-channel verification the browser is none the wiser.

How would you define "third party" in this case? We now know that the assassin was a follower of Nick Fuentes, acting on the suggestion of Laura Loomer. Both are working with Donald Trump on destabilizing the US. On top of that, t

For me, it actually is writing. Whether it's about writing down plans or past experiences, putting them on paper (or even digital) makes it easier to drop the thoughts from my mind. Also, it creates distance: it's much easier for

They're clearly betting on Trump to strong-arm the EU into dropping the DMA, or not enforcing it on US tech giants. And sadly, it seems like that could work.
