If you don't already have the 4k monitors, just get one with a thunderbolt input/output. A slightly more expensive dell monitor with good thunderbolt/usb-c support basically replaced my $300 dock, and it only cost about $100 more than the cheaper 4K monitors. Mine takes thunderbolt input, provides one usb-c port, and 4 usb-3 ports. Daisy chaining is supported, but note that you can't run 2 4k@60hz monitors with peripherals on a single cable - see details below.

----

Your setup needs will also depend on whether you plan to run two monitors with 4k@60hz.

I was trying to run a setup that would give me two secondary displays plus peripherals on a single thunderbolt cable, but the unfortunate reality is that it's just not fast enough.

Thunderbolt gets you ~40gb/s. A 4k@60hz monitor needs ~19gb/s, and a usb-3 hub will need another 10gb/s.

Two monitors + a hub means you need ~50gb/s and the connection just doesn't support that.

In windows things will almost always gracefully degrade (one monitor will drop to 4k@30hz). In linux... it's a bit of a grab bag depending on the order the devices are detected - Sometimes one monitor will fail to be discovered at all, sometimes usb devices will never be powered up, in some cases you'll see one (or sometimes both) monitors come up but no longer offer the correct resolutions.

---

Once I realized I was hitting the throughput limits on the cable, I caved and moved to a setup that used two thunderbolt cables plugged into the laptop.

I'm fortunate that my work and personal machines both have two thunderbolt ports (mac work work, xps 13 for personal) and they can both be charged from the same cable.

Agreed. A lot of boiler plates seems to back everything under the sun, when I really just want a simple reproducible template, maybe ever with docker support. This looks like it hits featureful without unnecessary complexity.

My family moved to California in 1987. I remember a school shooting in 1989 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Elementary_School_sh... ) that led significant California state law restrictions regarding guns. Just like the later federal assault weapons ban, they didn’t do a great job of just targeting the scary-looking guns they wanted to target while leaving just-as-lethal hunting rifles alone.

I hear you and think you make great points. Thankfully, there IS a resource and approach to using CSS properly, embracing the nature of the browser environment and building up from profoundly well-researched and -articulated first principles. The approach is called "Axiomatic CSS", and the website is https://every-layout.dev.

Disclaimers:

1. No affiliation, just a grateful follower.

2. The site includes a mix of free and paid content. The free content includes the axioms you're seeking, and compelling examples of their use. The paid content includes a book and access to the full suite of composable layout primitives, and a component generator. Best $100 business expense of my 22+ year career in web development.
I do something similar, but I got a $20 usb3.1 switch on Amazon and taped that to the back of my monitor.

When I want to switch, I just change the input on the monitor and press the button behind it.

It’s not the 1-click solution that I wanted, but it’s close enough and cheap.

Switching USB ports is cheap, switching video signals isn’t.
In my opinion, if they want a few shortcuts and hints they need to first talk to the wireless switch engineers and ask them if they've directly received any gag orders from the feds, or indirectly threats from their management. Back in the 90's, we used to update the firmware over the air. We could rewrite anything anywhere on the phone. Officially we did not do this, not because of any secrets or conspiracy... The fear was that if customers found out we could do this, it would be a support nightmare and not cost sustainable. We made the business decision to not update the phones over the air to avoid the risk of bricking any of them. This was only done for really bad firmware bugs and only to specific phones. As a result the phones would become out of date and people would eventually buy new ones. The reason I mention this is that if you can rewrite the firmware and reboot the phone, then you can intercept anything related to encryption, keys, passwords, etc... I have no idea what capabilities are in place now, but I would be very surprised if they regressed from what we could do in the 90's.

Some years ago, having not spoken any German since high school, I wanted a little refresher before starting a project with some German co-workers. I figured DW would offer some standard texts I could use to get started, and was pleasantly surprised to find whole courses available.

One in particular, based around the plight of a character called Nico, was actually interesting in its own right¹. Searching for it I see they offer even more now; DW truly does feel like an excellent resource to be proud of for its outreach alone.

That's exactly why I prefer Telegram to Discord in most cases. Everything just feels so cluttered. Yeah, it's nice to have the multiple channels in one server (though forums would be nicer, as then things would be easily searchable in the future for everyone and not behind Discord's wall, where who knows what could happen), but Telegram is just so much sleeker in my opinion, and that's why I use it as my primary chat app (and keep trying to get more of my friends and family on it)
No, and they won't because it's against Apple's terms of service to license your app as GPL.
I found this write up confusing also. At the end when he said, "Apple announced a fanless M1 which would have solved my problems", I was like, Wut? You problem was sharing peripherals between a pc and a laptop, right?
I concur. It is indeed more consistent on their devices, probably because the (relative) unfragmented nature of iOS by nature allows to simplify and focus the app development and get consistent results (unlike Android that you can't just match the UI between devices).

It has leaked. Activism masquerading as science. Yes, people also call critical race theory and intersectional theory academic disciplines. They hold conferences, have titles and credentials, are professors, etc. So yes the paper is high quality for a certain niche.

It's not a technical paper for not a technical conference. It's a "raising awareness" paper on identity politics beating the same drum, without much novel insight or analysis or new data. But yes, it has 120 or 200 citations, a fact that was proudly highlighted by authors on Twitter to underline the scholarly quality.

Yes, gender seminars and whiteness workshops are also properly credentialed.

Theology is also a discipline but perhaps not the same as sciences.

Quality is indeed relative.
Empathy is not guilt. I don't feel guilty because I've lucked into a career I enjoy and pays well. Luck in the sense that I picked a CS major in the 90's before "Tech" companies existed and CS was an offshoot of Math departments. I picked it because I liked computers and played computer games.

I am fine and I recognize there are others that are not doing fine. My empathy means I do things within my means to help those, donate money, food, etc.

Regarding the US Federal government, tax dollars going to bailout corporations or tax cuts for corporations doesn't help those who aren't doing fine. Corporations always choose self-preservation (stock buy backs, debt pay down, etc.) vs. helping their employees. I read something a while ago that said for a corporation it makes economic sense to do those things.

Does this explain the author’s surprise that apple’s fanless MacBooks can handle thunderbolt 3 without getting hot? If they’re doing it on cpu then I suppose that could bring about a lot of cpu i/o efficiency.

Yea that’s what 401k and IRAs are for. Whether you like it or not, Robinhood has lowered the barriers to entry for actual investing. Sure, there are people that use it like a casino. But the lack of fees per trade and the ability to buy fractional shares opens the door for anyone to be able to start investing with even a small amount of capital. Go yell at clouds somewhere else.
In the about page, it says that the curator doesn't have any coding experience and has been checking out the no code movement.

I think that explains why this website isn't open source itself.
It had multiple mentions (like a dozen or so). They left only one at the end. We can argue about semantics and it not being "technically removed" but the point is they broke the "Don't be evil" spirit of the company, and that was their intention.

It's clear from many events following that one that the company is no longer interested in developing a culture of "ethical employees". They just want cheerleaders now to keep increasing those quarterly results, no matter the cost.

I say all of this with the sadness of a former "Google evangelist." The old Google is gone, and Sundar Pichai being named CEO put the last nail in its coffin.

Mentally, I add the prefix “communication” whenever I see references to (graphic) designers. It helps me keep what their ultimate responsibility should be in any software project: to communicate, as clearly as possible, within the chosen mediums of expression.

You know, in theory, you could encode any binary data as its nearest prime number, plus or minus a delta number, which would be an integer...

And... check this out... the delta number itself -- might be in turn composed of one or more prime numbers, plus or minus a smaller delta -- until the delta no longer can be expressed as containing another prime number inside of itself!

Which leads to an interesting question... are prime gaps, that is, the space between prime numbers,

are prime gaps fractal in nature?

In other words, what's the mathematical relationship between say filling up a prime gap (and I'm thinking as those gaps become larger and larger, as the prime numbers themselves become larger and larger) with one or more smaller primes, plus a delta (the delta being the point where you run out of primes for covering the gap, that when added or subtracted, brings you back to your original binary data, expressed as a large integer, or the closest largest prime...)

Well, what's the exact relationship there, and can it be used for (one of my favorite topics! <g>), data compression?

?

(Yes, this set of ideas needs some tweaking and/or more formal definition... this is the "rough draft" of that future formal definition...)
Note that this working will depend heavily on what usb-3 peripherals you're plugging in, and the exact resolution of your 4k monitors.

a display at 3840x2160@60hz will eat up about 19.8gbps. Two of them together will use 39.6gpbs.

Thunderbolt 3 only supports 40gbps. So if you have peripherals that need anything more than basic mouse/keyboard (in my case, a decent webcam and a usb to ethernet adapter) this setup will fail.

>If 5G radios will be off by 15kHz (as opposed to 202000 kHz from 3.98 to 4.2 GHz as the aviation industry is implying), 5G network transmissions will not work properly.

But that's not really how RFI tends to work - you can be perfectly aligned to your target frequency and generating the signals you expect there, but still be generating mixing or LO spurs, image response, third-order intermodulation products and so on which can be at totally different frequencies.

It’s called a dog whistle. You don’t have to specifically mention race or gender in order to imply something about it. It’s not inappropriate. I didn’t flag his comment. Someone else did. It should have been flagged and rightfully was.

I think your points would come across better if you didn’t use such extreme words (absurd, highly inappropriate, absolutely). It’s your opinion, not a fact.

I also find it funny that _my_ comment is highly inappropriate but the actual comment that was flagged is not? Why do you think that? I’m assuming you didn’t get a chance to read it, which begs the question, “Why did you feel the need to champion this cause?”

-they gamify the investing process too much
-they have no customer service

The problem with hardware RAID is that if the hardware fails, you need to replace that specific card with the same type to recover the data. If they're cheap enough and you want to go down that route, then buy two so you've got a backup.

Having worked with a variety of GUI frameworks on small projects for work (WPF, Windows Forms, Xamrin, Android, iOS), I think HTML and CSS are the best out there for easy of use. It definitely helps that it has so much history and documentation behind it, but if I could build my GUIs in standard HTML and CSS without being forced into Electron or something else and still have my choice for a backend language, I'd find building GUIs way more fun.

Right... so everyone quotes the same price, and then they compete based on paying more for order flow instead of the sticker price. It’s the difference between having a larger bid-ask spread or larger transaction fees: either way, the cost of execution will be paid.
It sounds like you are cynical? He's pledged the vast majority of his money to charity, and he's working on important problems.

The investments in vaccines (https://abcnews.go.com/Technology/bill-melinda-gates-foundat... ?) seem to be made by his foundation, and I can't tell if it's to the companies themselves or to fund distribution and operational costs (which would be free money for the world).
