So, I'll just hop in here and lay out the spoiler. There is a major performance difference in the Taycan, it's endurance, and it's highly likely this transmission is a key element to achieving it. For those that don't kn

You're overthinking this. People run red lights because they are impatient and don't get punished for it. There must be a 1 in 1000 chance of actually being caught. Maybe even better odds actually. During commute traffic in my are

What you don't seem to realize is that during actual driving, you don't need to use the touch screen at all. Every meaningful, required interaction with the car (except arguably wiper speed setting I guess) is controlled with phys

I'm a Software Architect who made a progressive move to that role after being a Sr. Software Engineer for almost a decade. I see the distinction as pretty simple. We do the same things, but, we specialize in terms of time spent and bre

There is one and only one difference between professionals and amateurs. Professional make the majority of their income doing the thing they are professional at, amateurs are doing the thing on an unpaid basis. That's it. End of story

No this is absolutely not accurate. This only happens due to motherboard defaults running all cores at turbo speeds simultaneously as well as automatic overclocking behaviors on by default.

This is wrong, intel gives their TDP with CORRECT turbo enabled. The problem is that nearly every popular motherboard out there enables turbo on all cores simultaneously ("enhanced multicore" for example on ASUS boards) which bl

You only have to put the static content in the public repo which is no different, visibility-wise, than it is going to be anyway. So who cares? I keep my "uncompiled" site in a private repo that builds and automatically "depl

The chip on the card is an entire computer running a Java program every time it's activated by the terminal. What it communicates via that terminal can vary, the same way the NFC tap-to-pay terminals can vary. There's no need for

I'll be honest, I want this because it's a cool looking metal card. I already use Apple Pay for the majority of my regular in-person spending, and don't carry balances on (normal) credit cards so, it would just be a bump in m

Reasons: I haven't found a proportional code font I like very much and, more importantly, many—MANY—existing code files include text arranged with the expectation of monospace fonts and if you use proportional, they become a mess.

I will chime in as another huge Iosevka fan. I have never really liked any of the other popular coding fonts and it really comes down to one thing: They are all stupid sans-serif fonts. I have found, ever since displays grew out of the garb

Services dedicated to this purpose like Backblaze and Crashplan allow/enable, maybe even enforce client-side encryption. In some cases, you have quite a lot of control over things like the keys and precise encryption settings.
