> Intel Optane is barely faster than flash — roughly 3x (for 4k random read) compared to the fastest Samsung SSD [1].

... and the maximum brightness advantage of micro LEDs may be similarly (un)impressive.

> Optane was a failure because it failed to deliver the promised result.

No, it only failed because the performance/price ratio wasn't good enough compared to NAND flash. That's exactly what I was saying: Both performance and price have to be considered.

> If Apple is able to spit out 200 million of these screens in a year, I have a very hard time imagining what ingredient could go into the production causing a greater per unit price than a Samsung display.

Replace "Apple" with "Intel", "screens" with "Optane disks" and "Samsung Display" with "Samsung Semiconductor", and you see that this argument doesn't work.
Raspberry Pi computers are hard to get, expensive and slow, now at least one maybe two generations behind competitors in terms of speed.

Upton claims that these companies had to use Raspberry Pi…. sounds false to me - lots of other companies changed their designs to handle the shortage.

If anything, Upton should have backed kids and schools above all - they are the one who really needed hobby computing during Covid lockdowns. Upton's justifications don’t ring true.

Also the company has treated hobbyists, kids and schools like garbage.

Buy something else.

Headline is certainly attention grabbing but not as bad as it sounds.

This is, currently, for commercial customers only and will always pick the most secure option that your account has setup. If the most secure option is not available, they'll go the next one. This generally makes sense.

Obviously, I'd prefer if you can pick and choose the order, but then again it's Microsoft so I'm not surprised whatsoever.
i'd believe it's more likely they'll just switch to instagram. I get that insta may be worse in recommendation, but the extra hassle with apk may be enough to move users towards another app
The author in the video kind of dismisses EVs saying that at speed there's not much of a difference, but one of the things I definitely noticed when visiting Bergen was how damn quiet the city was because almost everyone was driving EVs. It had a noticeably positive effect on me.
This stuff has been talked about often enough that it should be well-documented, but can we have a detailed rundown on the stuff that TikTok does that isn't done by other apps?
they will exist for a while because you need to get to that level in your career. People rarely leave uni and get 100k+ jobs. If you leave uni and find a job paying at 50k and you get increases of 2.5% each year, it will take over 20 years to repay.

Has this meme ever been a real thing? I know quite a few people who've made entire careers off of fixing the mistakes these outsourced "cheap" Indian make in their work, cheap being in quotes because the end result is that you have to pay someone more, for far longer to fix up the crap they leave in their wake.

Besides if it's cheap enough to hire someone overseas (who by definition would be remote), how would it not be cheaper to just pay their current workforce to work remotely?

These are just the words of someone with no real connection to East Asia, but I feel Japanese aggression and it's treatment of of China and Korea are brought up constantly?

Isn't that what they are doing? Pis do keep popping up briefly at various distributors, just not in the numbers needed to keep them in stock consistently.
The great replacement is a supposed conspiracy yet everyone in here complains how raising children is too expensive, how immigrants are imported to fill in for the missing people and how they accept wages lower than what natives would accept.

But somehow putting three simple facts together makes you a white nationalist. Which is odd since I wasn't white when I immigrated here.

I find the same is true for most other conspiracy theories. Epstein showed that there are a lot of very rich paedophiles. Covid responses around the world showed that vaccine passports were very much on the cards. And on and on.

It's pretty disheartening to see the ideology which was supposed to keep power in check worship it instead.

I'm sure Disney could get their hands on enough Disney owned material to train a Disney AI. It would also be a reason to keep artists and staff on hand to create training material for new properties, so maybe not as many creatives would be out on the streets.

Plus I'm assuming IP owners would have deals with stock image libraries and companies like Adobe to make it actually legal for companies to use.
There isn't. But the fix isn't to isolate yourself from society in a metal box, it's basic empathy and making sure those folks get the help they need and aren't forced into those situations in the first place.

Not any "seems" about it. They have openly said they are. Unlike you, I have no issue with the decision. But I have also been able to get 3 additional RPi 4 at retail for list price since the supply issues began so the impact on me has been minimal.

Every org has different cultures and leadership culture within it.

A power culture has zero trust and is high blame.
Bureaucratic is process oriented.
Generative experiments, tests, learns from failure.

The organization you have never experienced is generative. And coupled with transformational leadership it’s a pleasant environment to work in as either a manager or IC. These orgs do exist and are not rare either.
For GP’s stream-transformer / state-machine equivalence to work, you need to sprinkle option types throughout so each input yields some kind of output, even if empty. So more like

def co():
i = yield None # hurray for off-by-one streams
j = yield None
while True:
i = yield i + j
j = yield None

This won’t help if the output stream produces more than one output item from each input item. You could sprinkle lists instead, but in reality multiple simultaneous events have always been a sore point for FRP—in some libraries you can have them (and that’s awkward in some cases), in some you can’t (and that’s awkward in others).

Maven has worked well for over a decade. I understand cargo is similar.

If your dependency management is any good then there's nothing to lose and a lot to gain from splitting your libraries out and allowing them to have independent release cycles. You can always do "platform" releases that aggregate together a bunch of finer-grained libraries with versions that are known together if you have a use case for that; going the other direction is a lot harder.

It's probably not about that for most of the car owners.

Most probably feel subconsciously threatened by the prospect of having to actually talk out public space utilization with other people. Meaning they wouldn't be able to rely on one-sided transactional relationships and would have to exercise their empathy muscles and acknowledge other people as fellow humans with their own needs.

And that's super hard to do when you are under constant pressure to perform to the point you stop caring for others and begin to ruthlessly transact. Because you eventually realize you probably aren't owed anything by the wider community and thus worry that you might be marginalized if things changed. So you cling to individualism and try to promote it en large so that nobody is able to judge you.

So that you can survive another day.
Don't forget motorcycles.

I personally still use them for 3D printers, and Raspberry Pis still provide good performance for the price if you can get them at MSRP. At that 40$ price range the main alternative is going to be an Allwinner H616 board like the BTT Pi or the Orange Pi Zero 2. I have actually run into a performance issue on one of my 3D printers that necessitated swapping a Pi 3 for a Pi 4, so performance did matter, and I'm unsure if a H616 would keep up.

I do have a few boards that are faster than a Pi 4, such as the Radxa Rock5 with the Rockchip RK3588, but they cost way more than a Raspberry Pi (once again if you can find at MSRP).

It's so weird that the 'noise' of petrol cars is considered a safety feature. I've heard from the older generation "Yeah but EVs don't make noise which makes them extremely dangerous. Could easily kill a child or old woman who steps out on to a road because they don't hear a car coming".

It must be the same group of people with their anecdotes about seatbelts and airbags making cars more dangerous.
the thing is, most us people are using iphone and it doesn't have sideloading(there are chances for sideload in eu but not in other places), so instant kill for that demographic(iphone is status symbol and most people have it so they'll not switch to android). For Android - your analogy is not quite good. A better analogy would be prohibiting a mark of alcohol (tiktok) when there is another legalized mark(instagram/shorts) but which tastes a bit worse-> people will continue to drink, but extra hassle will stimulate the switch to the legal type. Both factors will effectively kill the growth effect for tiktok so us userbase will switch (and since eu can have something similar, all western userbase will be cut)

HDR LCD TVs also had significantly higher maximum brightness than OLED TVs, but that advantage apparently didn't matter much compared to the finer contrast and lower black levels of OLED. I think smartphone LCDs were also brighter than OLED displays. It then questionable whether the better maximum brightness of micro LEDs will outweigh a much higher price.
If the office was an office, y’know, 1-2 people with walls and a door and some room to work, then yeah. As the office can be a typing pool from the 50’s, what’s the use of that? Throw in the commute and “work” is becoming performance. Some thrive in such mayhem, but they’re probably not the grunts that cut code. And if your business relies on the existance and operation of such code, keep developers content.

If it doesn’t, don’t be surprised when you have to rehire. And in the age of the internet, everything is known.
It’s not fundamentally socialist or capitalist. Driving a car assumes that there are people paid to do jobs that support it. From drilling oil, to making breaks and tires, and supporting the vehicles, to paving roads and building bridges. Roads and bridges can be privatized, and there are plenty of privately owned roads in the USA.

The real issue with cars imho isn’t the support. The real problem to me is the highway system encouraging sprawl, which then forces many to own a vehicle whether or not they want really one.

Well, I wrote some Ruby on Rails code on my Samsung tablet some years ago. I mean, I was running the editor and Rails on the tablet, inside Dex for Linux which is an Ubuntu 16.04 container (LXC?) sharing the kernel with Android. Samsung and Canonical worked together to port X11 to the tablet so I had a Unity desktop. I remember it came with VSCode preinstalled inside the container.

It was a little slow but probably not much slower than my laptop back in 2005 when I started coding in Rails, if it was any slower at all.

Agreed!

In my experience, a big enough 16:9 display also works as a 4:3 in practice – a 55” 4K OLED TV is great for this. It’s like a 2880 × 2160 4:3 display… with three little 960x720 4:3 displays next to it, heh. Window managers can enforce the split. It’s nice!
In cities (especially dense, old European cities), IC cars makes most of the noise when they accelerate after a stop at the crossroads, pedestrian crossing etc. EVs or even hybrids make a big difference in such conditions. Not to mention, on a quiet street, even a single IC car passing changes the sound aura of the place completely - whereas, with EVs, you just get a quiet hum.

I visited Boston from the UK last year and was struck by the lower level of traffic noise. I attributed it to there being far fewer diesel cars and more EVs & hybrids. In the UK we have diesel powered buses and taxis everywhere as well as lots of personal cars, and the engines all have a much deeper and louder rumble than petrol engines.
> It’s estimated up to 1% of the population might have 20/10 vision as well. It is apparently quite common among elite athletes to be 20/15 or better.

On the standard eye test chart where 20/20 vision is the ability to read the bottom row, I could usually read the copyright fine print below the 1-inch high block letters!

To me it always felt like that is normal vision, and 20/20 is taking an average that includes a bunch of people with poor eyesight. Like... the average person has less than 2 eyes, less than two legs, etc...

I thought we already established that it wasn't illegal? You can, however, create contracts that restrict your abilities or for things that are perfectly legal. For example, we can sign a contract that you're no longer aloud to walk, or buy candy. That's a legally enforcable contract.

In this case the contract is that 1) you tell them you're doing this and 2) that it is capped to a certain amount and 3) you are visibly doing it and the customer is properly informed.

These are all pretty reasonable contractual terms, IMHO.
yeah they could mandate tiktok to inform users after each video that data is sent to ccp
> But somehow putting three simple facts together

It's putting the observations together in ways that assign intent and blame in ways that don't make sense that's the problem. You can't add 1+1+1 and make 5.

(Especially in a country like the US that's literally built out of immigrants; is the argument that the US should revert to its 1600 population levels and their descendents?)

> Covid responses around the world showed that vaccine passports were very much on the cards

Well .. yes? They've been a thing for certain diseases for years. The US used to screen for TB at Ellis Island. I had to get a Yellow Fever vaccination with a little card in my passport to be allowed into Peru. And so on. What's the conspiracy?

A little after Microsoft had bought hotmail and was revamping and syncing the UI with outlook, I was travelling and hadn't logged into my account for a few months. The account, my oldest email account, had become my secondary account ever since the launch of gmail.

I logged in to discover that they had wiped all my emails due to those months of inactivity. All my correspondences through high school and college. Hilarious and thoughtful messages from some who had died randomly way too early.

I was so enraged I was rendered speechless. I couldn't even bring myself to try to complain helplessly. It was as if someone just walked into my house while I was on vacation and burned the whole place down with all my life's letters stored in my desk.

As far as I'm aware, it was the first time a large email provider pulled some shit like this.

A few years later--before all those cops playing Taylor Swift songs--when I uploaded a video I made from a wedding to FB to my small network, it was insta-removed due to the music playing in the background.

Various places have carpool lots where you can park your car for the day and ride with someone else. They are often illuminated at night and patrolled by police.
> Basically you could only give up your car if you could live exactly as before.

You are basically saying, "Why don't you just radically change your lifestyle?" E.g. I need to drive my dogs and partner to my parent's place (which is only across town) once a week for dinner. This is an activity all of us really enjoy. Despite being only a few miles away, the route is not safely walkable/bikeable. Which means: car, either mine or a rideshare. Rideshare service sucks here (because almost everyone drives). Huge chicken and egg problem.

Some of my hobbies involve building stuff. I can and have had wood delivered. It's an $80 charge (or more) for each delivery. That's a huge dent, and means I have to plan every material I need.

I go camping a few times a year. That would be outright impossible without a dedicated vehicle. I could rent, but again, huge cost.

But my most vital hobby revolves around spinning fire props, which involves numerous bulky large objects, heavy fuel dunks, and flammable fuel.

So yeah, pretty much all my hobbies and things I need to do for mental health revolve around car access. But that's kind of what happens when you spend your whole life in an ultra car centric suburb. I can't imagine anything else because I'd have to terraform all of suburban upstate NY to be more like Europe, and that's not happening (not that I don't want to). This is why the car debate is obnoxious: city folks with limited experience are telling folks with totally different lifestyles "have you considered... not?" and it's incredibly patronizing. I know that's not your intent, but that's how it's usually interpreted.

My one hope is for affordable FSD on-demand ride share with a variety of vehicles. Otherwise having a car (two actually) is a mandatory sunk cost for me.
