It could be really bad for Epic in the long term if Apple decides to completely and permantly prevent Unreal Engine from running on Mac and iOS. Game developers may be less likely to use Unreal Engine if they know it doesn't have suppo

Just from looking at the tweets a lot of people do care about the why. I see a lot of people blaming Epic for breaking the contract and some of people blaming Apple for completely kicking Epic off all Apple products. Maybe the reactions wou

The people defending Apple are different from the people attacking Google, Facebook, and Amazon.

Is this true? Can't you claim standing based on something you would do except for an illegal contract or illegal law?

I've not seen any satisfactory explanation for how a working PoS system would operate. Granted I'm not an expert, but anytime I delve into whitepapers, they are written confusingly and without crucial details, which makes me wonde

Rents dropped significantly at the start of the pandemic in my area (from $3400 around this time last year to $2500). It's partly because I'm right next to a big college.

It looks like it's an independent toy project right now that happens to use some pieces of Servo. So probably no particular advantage as of now.

The U.S. based Servo team got laid off. There's another team I think, and they were unsure last I heard.

The question is whether I trust your "survey" or the CDC's recommendation. But also, in both cases based on a quick skim it seems to me like you're misrepresenting the studies. In the first study, the control was "n

PACER would not cooperate with this. Also, the problem with automating it is that accounts require a credit card, so you'd have to give the automation script the ability to charge your credit card (if there's a bug for example).

Unfortunately we could never be free of PACER just through RECAP because of new documents.

by zucker42 6y ago
Supposedly (according to the Free Law project) the size of PACER is probably closer to 250-300 TB. Your point still applies though. https://free.law/2016/10/10/the-cost-of-pacer-data-around-on...

by zucker42 6y ago
On some pages on the Free Law site (creators of RECAP), they talk about why the fees are way too high to "cover the costs incurred by the court system". PACER brings in over $100 million per year. [1] https://free.law&#

I'm not saying the cost savings are necessarily worth it. I strongly dislike the move to touchscreen interfaces in situations where they don't make sense. I think cost savings might be a reason many car companies have chosen (IMO)

by zucker42 6y ago
I don't think the main reason car companies are shifting more and more functionality to touchscreens is because of the perception that they're "smart". I think it's because touchscreens are cheaper, especially in te

Obviously you'd choose the safer plane if it's equally convenient. But if the absolute risk is low and there's no other plane at the same time, or the alternatives cost 2x as much, it's reasonable to be willing to fly on

I think there's a solid argument that patents are generally harmful, especially patents of software or non-revolutionary product features, so I think you can form an opinion. If we embraced copying a little more I think our society wou

Look up "nouveau signed firmware". Phoronix has a bunch of articles on it. The Nouveau developers also talk about it at FOSDEM 2018 (and probably a later conference). This comment is a good intro: https://www.phoronix.c

I don't have so much of a problem with CUDA staying closed, but rather Nvidia sabotaging Nouveau through signed firmware which they don't release (and obfuscate in their blob). Nouveau would be probably be decent by now (not as fa

I think the commenter is referring to Apple's switch to ARM for laptops.

I'm not an expert, but I thought Apple's reason for ditching Nvidia was speculated to be that their ecosystem was closed and integrating Nvidia slowed down development and lead to failures. I don't think there's an absol

Nothing. You get money per impression or click (not quite sure how it works exactly). I'm sure they have automated systems to detect "click fraud". More info here: https://www.google.com/adsense/start&#x2
