My theory: retinal photos often contain parts of eyelashes. Women's are statistically longer. Their eyes are also more almond shaped. Retinal photographs are hard to take. Often th…

Meanwhile, Java has incredible support for several kinds of profiling for a decade. This is the reason I don't liKe Go: anything Google deems unimportant (like generics or packagin…

I'm fairly sure it is. Apple does have more experience with fanless SoCs though

Everything is transpired to JS before it hits prod. But yeah it's slow

Yes, it goes back to ES3. Babel does have a neat automatic polyfill system typescript doesn't. But both can target real old JS versions. Most JS packages you'll find on NPM are sti…

Eh, my take, Typescript won. Does the same thing as Babel but supports static types and inference in regular JS.

I've seen this terrible error when system has bad RAM. It's not supposed to happen, but it does when crappy drivers die

Newest gen Ryzen laptops are different. They're significantly more energy efficient than older AMD and any Intels. The energy efficiency of new AMD processors is something like 50%…

House and auto prices are up because demand is historically high. Same thing happening with travel trailers, chips, gas, and remodeling supplies. It's all people doing stuff to avo…

Is this their way of saying that people don't want to go back to starvation wages and managed to find better jobs post COVID after being laid off? This is basically McDonalds - "We…

I'm a cynic, but rich investors will be bailed out like in 2008. Crypto will be allowed to crater since it's owned by small holders. If you want to be protected when the bubble pop…

When they need to handle UPD and TCP. Cloudflare's web application firewalls run at TCP and HTTP layer and use tuned Linux kernels for processing, not DPDK and userspace TCP as som…

My favorite Windows error :) I wanted [object Object] but it was taken haha

> Old Babushka proverb, if complicated explosion related plumbing is working as intended, best not to completely rework it for sake of changelog. Aye, but everyone stuck with that …

NASA nah, they transitioned to third party launch providers many years ago. They like making space vehicles more than rockets. The SLS, yes, that's a classic pork project. ULA is t…

Buy from Europe. Seriously, most stores will ship to US. The ones without English UI have better stocks. I have been able to buy everything I've looked for at normal retail from Eu…

^^ this is huge. I was looking at CPU's for a ML recently and Intel is out of the question. Chips with enough lanes to hit full speed on 4 GPUs + SSD cost twice as much as AMD. Thi…

I'll add that with DPDK you end up needing your own TCP stack if you're doing anything above layer 3. TCP is a beast with opportunity for countless subtle bugs. The Linux kernel is…

I've given up on Xsense distros and use OpenWrt. It's Linux based so Wiregaurd is in kernel and easy to setup. I keep trying to get people to try it out :) . I left pfSense communi…

I'm an OpenWrt hawk, they have a plugin for DNS based blocking if you end up going that direction https://github.com/openwrt/packages/tree/master/net/adblock/...

I swear by OpenWrt. It's not just for wifi routers. It's a regular Linux distro you can run on X86 too. My favorite thing about OpenWrt is SQM CAKE, state of the art traffic shapin…

There's a lot of JIT's using LLVM for code generation. Including some shader compilers, Azul's JVM, and I believe Safari's JS. DynASM is another popular library, used by Lua and ot…

> I do personally hate ignorance and always had high marks on reading comprehension It's unusual to be both very smart and hostile to those you consider lessor than you but carry o…

I've heard the anecdote many times that the idiomatic way of writing Rust tends to also be performant. I've spent some time fiddling with C code to reuse buffers and avoid copies, …
