The other day when I was hacking together on some GCode for a small CNC table, it felt somehow very similar to me: I realized that, as a five or six year old, playing with Logo/Turtle graphics on Apple ][ machines--my first interaction

The only thing that keeps getting faster is the abandonment of Firefox. It doesn't matter how fast Firefox is, or how private it is, or any of the other garbage the Mozilla foundation has been wasting their time on. If Firefox continue

The example from the article without any explicit arguments reminds me very much of objective c's message passing concept, which I actually quite liked and used very much. So, I guess the answer is: there is no objectively correct way

I was with you until "... so is writing a React frontend". No. No it's not. Making a functional UI in visual basic is childs play compared to the absolute cesspit of NIH and feature treadmill that frontend web development has

Hey, so, I have managed a ton of software projects. I strongly oppose Agile, "agile" and nearly every variation thereof (SAFe is the worst). Not every software project is a website contracted to an agency for the lowest possible c

It wasn't clear to me from the blog post: If I have an AMD GPU and an AMD CPU and everything with unified memory, can I use system memory for inferencing? that's a difference of "just" 16gb, or a combined 72gb available

The further down you got, the more like German it sounded as I was mentally pronouncing it--but it was somehow a smooth gradient. Weird!

500 Wh/kg means Sulphur cathode, which also explains the solid electrolyte. Roughly speaking, it'll be 3x as energy dense but only a 1/2 as volumetrically efficient (so, a given capacity battery will weigh 1/3 less but t

Really sorry to hear that. When I worked for Daimler, I was surprised to learn that all of their cars ship with something called "PRE-SAFE Sound" which, when it detects that you might be in a crash (i.e. at the point when the seat

I started programming with VB4, and built a lot of cool stuff in VB6. Went on to learn C++, C, Python, and a bunch of other cool languages to build a bunch of cool things. Nothing really quite feels as approachable for a beginner as VB did,

So, it's probably not the phyiscal port, but the controller and/or the interfacing. If you read the article fully, it mentions that the only known way to really fix the issue is to completely replace the main board... which would

I was diagnosed when I was six, and, like you, I dropped all meds at 17. Recently (as in, this year) through a combination of therapy and introspection, I realized that while indeed I was able to have a successful life, career, relationship

Indeed, and I am highlighting that the actionable take-away for someone considering founding a vc-backed startup solo is: don't. You're fighting uphill enough, no need to make it tougher.
