The approach they are taking here is great. The type-C port is down inside the device as part of the battery so should be almost always protected from crap getting in there. So if the charging port fails / gets bent / gunked full

Presently if you go to buy a power tool at Home Depot you have to find somebody who will open up a locked cabinet where the tools are on the shelf, which burns manpower to do that. If they don’t do that yes organized groups will steal a lar

Yea the old narrative of "arm is power efficient, but doesn't actually run real desktop level stuff at that power level" is pretty dead at this point.. it now runs desktop level stuff at 3x lower power than intel's lates

Yes, the market is changing -- on all fronts for Intel. Many people talk about this being a tech problem, really its more like the logic at companies when you hold a close to monopoly position -- why invest tons of R&D dollars when you

I would tweak the redirect info to have “xxx &> file” in there since that’s one that is often confusing to people early on that want to output stdout and stderr to a file and are confused about how to do that. But yea the list of stu

It has to also include the typical provisions for insider trading like "telling others material information related to stocks / companies etc". I tend to like the idea people are proposing of requiring the information to be d

I wonder if we need a better way to address safety related to research around potentially airborne diseases -- like maybe in the past things that could result in death are considered bad, but something that presently is not deadly, but bein

So is the underlying detail that is not stated here is? 1. even though arxiv is preprint's, they have some ability to categorize things and in a sense allowing things to be categorized is a way of soft-filtering out stuff "they do

If you go to Japan, check out a place called Tokyu Hands.. tons of paper notebooks, pens, pencils, pencil organizer pouches, tons of awesome stuff..

I think most people understand that ARM means more than just "ARM vs. x86", its much more of an economic and control play than an architecture play. Sure from the people who end up wanting to use the chips its all about that, but

Yea quite the playbook there... ransom the company pretending to be a hacker, then pretend to be a whistleblower saying the company is burying the fact that the company is being ransomed..

I mean at this point with the amount of people who have messed up smart contracts, it seems like basically the perfect way to setup a situation to take money from people.. create a digital money that is hard to recover, allow people to basi

I wonder — what is the dose when exposed to covid? If you get a small dose, test positive — but have a weak immune response, is your future protection small? One detail about the vaccine would be that it is a known dose. Would be great to

Reading that article just feels like if this is the endgame for crypto then we are in some crazy territory that makes close to zero sense.. totally unclear how anybody could justify putting money toward buying a secondary token with the goa

Is one of the feedback loops for high inflation that companies don't want to increase wages, so you go into a recession because people stop buying things because everything starts costing too much?

Beside the demographics, another aspect is that even with low birth rates, salaries in Japan don't seem to have much growth over the past say 20 years, and you are starting to see trends to have companies work lower hours -- which like

Unfortunately the doc released is essentially devoid of any actual info, mostly just a “lots of stuff has happened in past 20 years”.. would be interesting to know about the other docs that didn’t get released..

158nm high aspect ratio silicon pillars across an optical surface — not sure why they refer to it as “simple”? For sure it’s a great idea that is not super complex but yea would be interesting to understand how it would be made on different

It seems over the past few years the incentives to work at a startup seemed fairly weak if you could easily get a job at Facebook paying a salary maybe 2X what the startup would pay.. I could imagine something like what happened here to be

Yea what / where is arcd? is that a closed source portion of this stack that this depends upon? not super clear what is really open source about this stuff -- this looks like a pile of scripts to run arcd? edit: ok thanks so its qemu-s

I wonder how recyclable this is? If it’s actually acrylic and glass mixed together that sounds tricky to separate later.. maybe?

oh super interesting to know about the anbox-halium history, thanks for that info.

by xt00 5y ago
It sort of looks like these guys said hey if anbox folks aren’t going to update their android version, let’s fork it and do our own thing? There are some random anbox files in the repo for waydroid.

by xt00 5y ago
One of the biggest problems with anbox and ARC was that they would need to do tons of work on each new android version. If somebody is willing to keep updating this for new versions of android at least every other android release then it’s

The authors suggestion to “install android” as a way to fix the security on these Linux phones obviously misses the point. People want a phone where they can do whatever they want with it.

Probably most folks would think Apple could build a car -- and something being a computer on wheels Apple could handle, its more like Apple probably doesn't like the economics of it.. iphones and software services are pretty lucrative,

Would seem likely this is more like "Apple executive finally realizes apple doesn't really want to build a car, so leaves.."

It seems like there are some good intentions here but spending time/money with this company to design a city feels like a vanity project for Uber-rich people.. seriously wondering is this proposal actually helping / likely to help
