HN user
I guess that there are "content creators" who are not interested by video or click-bait as well as those "content consumers" who are looking for geniously interesting content written in a concise and clear way. Substack seems a good site for this but in general it seems to me that this is sth that is missing in today's internet.
can someone please explain to me why is this a HN front page material? this seems to be a long abandoned project
i am laughing and crying at the same time...
a couple of decades ago, I was still a lowly applied mathematics (and aspiring programmer) student when i proposed to a professor to change the compiler options from O2 to O3 to gain performance (reducing run time by a significant percentage like 50% or more...) only to be disregarded by saying "no, compiler optimizations break numerical accuracy".
so let me get this straight, do they like free markets or not ?
Supporting is on thing, being build on top of it is another thing. And on top of that, AFAIK on bluesky there is no "algorithm"
half the comments so far talk about bluesky being similar to x ie private companies.
However AFAIK the use of the "AT protocol" seems to me to be a major difference https://bsky.social/about/faq.
I am really curious to know how I am wrong in that.
As a long time X user and now on bluesky i can tell that there is a huge difference in the content which makes it clear that the platform was pushing accounts with specific political views (or muting others)
Again, I very much agree with you, very sound advice. The reason I stick with merlin/Asus is that I do not want to spend too much time, I want to buy sth, configure/deploy/forget.
You are right, these are what matter and thanks for the suggestions.
I am not particularly on a budget but I don't either require wifi7, I am not willing to pay 3* more than I should. I am lazy and searching for something that is supported by merlin and I will look into the used market as well.
Are you sure you are not mistaken with used ones?
The question is why are they able to inflate the prices like this and get away with ?
i love this blog, i hold Chris Wellons to a very high estime BUT i utterly disapprove the usage of macros so much, especially to wrap cstd types, functions, etc.
a manual transmission car does not require more focus and thought as very soon changing gears becomes a reflex, ie it doesn't require the driver's prefrontal cortex. The same can not be said for repetitive work in programming (eg as in programming in assembly or C)
IMO, this opinion deserves some thought even though it is not as bad as it sounds
The author very clearly and explicitely says in the post that this is "purely to help us think".
I still have my first linux cd somewhere.
They came together with the `SAMS RedHat Linux 7.0 Unleased` book I bought as I did not want to go through the same pain I went with my 33600 pstn downloading slackware 7's cd#1 in 14 days.
Cheers RedHat :)
cpu cost is only a small fraction of overall cost: for every cpu, there is a power supply, ram, motherboard and case. You also haven't mentioned anything about data: do they need local storage or will it be only temporarily stored locally?
it sound like minipcs can be an excellent solution for you.
For how long will you be using this? AWS may be preferable in the short term while local hardware may be cheaper in the long term/a lot of cpu hours.
there is also the question of your application performance on different cpus. there are older servers available for very cheap prices but is it worth it to buy a 12/20core xeon cpu that consumers 200-300W if its performance is similar to a 5900 at 150W ?
if this is an argument about MS forcing DX and killing OGL, I remind you that Vulkan had/has Apple's support.
Amen.
In my opinion, the problem is that we failed to create some additional layers on top of C. an extended std lib with data structs and algorithms as well as a style/practices for everyday use (ie non compiler writers).
i adore C, it was my first language and i still like its simplicity very much. Still, I have come to believe that only strictly vetted licensed people should be allowed to use it :)
I bought my first motorcycle in 2004 and my 2nd in 2007. I rode 45k km with the first one over these 3 years (mostly on my island) and 80k km with the 2nd one between 2007-2015. I can confirm that the amount of bugs crashing on my helmet's visor is definitely less. I used to clean it after riding for an hour but now I can do 4-5-6h and still have no real need to clean it.
gvim is plenty fast but i guess for the majority of people notepad++ is the recommendation to make
if you rarely have issues, either someone else dealt with them before you knew it, either your project is very simple, either your project doesn't ever change or all of the above.
I would like to work with your devops :)
From what I hear apple's latest chips are already so far ahead of amd64 in performance and power consumption that they can easily wait a couple of years. I do not think that this is what they actually want to do, i am only saying that they can even afford that for a few years if they have to.
I am not sure that there is enough demand from smaller clients to 100% cover apple's usual capacity.
in short this seems to be a real bras de faire :)
When you buy such a huge part of the available capacity then you are in the position to bargain like this, unlike "smaller" clients.
i understand that it is more portable but if it is cpu based, i guess its power performance is terrible since it is not using gpu acceleration which is a priori more efficient
The problem with "c/c++" is not that the people using this notation are ignorant of their difference. the problem is that there is nothing preventing someone writing c in a cpp file. what is more, it is up to every one/every project to choose the cpp subset to use.
That is why i think the criticism is very very valid
If only there have been a more appropriate idea to avoid proprietary software and protocols.
Oh wait, there is free software/open source!
it is really astonishing how people are still willing to be locked-in and go to extreme lengths to continue to be locked-in.
Just here to say thanks for this, it looks awesome and is well in my reading list :)
could this be a name conflict with this https://www.thermofisher.com/order/catalog/product/VELOX ?
one does not need to start with 20 people, if one doesn't have enough paying customers either...
if by storage you mean batteries, are you sure that their production/usage/recycling makes up for the environmental cost of producing/recycling them?
I am all in for green energy but we have to be honest and estimate well, otherwise we will simply continue as we are now (if not make matters worst)
