    iirc they are both powered by the same engine to stream and replicate the WAL. I believe R2 is now implemented as a Durable Object backed by SQLite now.

    From what I read, it was because they couldn't fit the charging circuitry for both into the dongle. Better to not deal with the confusion of one not charging

    I imagine something like this could be a fantastic tool to teach about differential equations and their applications. Just looking at you can see specific hallmarks (sources and si…

    Rust By Example helped me to get off the ground pretty quickly and give me some ideas when I was stuck. But honestly just making something is the best way to learn rust, the compil…

    The language works for the programmer. Those with a higher focus on safety (like rust) make the worst programmer better.

    The most important part is preference IMO. People have the right to choose which is right for them, and if they determine that dark mode is better for them (even if they just think…

    Yes there was a demo, but it didn't actually submit anything at all. It just mocked through what the exam would look like with timers. The demo is still up and you can still look a…

    As a student who took 3 AP tests this week, it holds up well. The main weapon CollegeBoard leveraged is that these exams were only 45 minutes long. For example, AP Calculus had two…

    Yes, and those who are naturally good at standardized testing (such as myself) have an advantage on the SAT, which is one of its issues. But as far as College Board is concerned, t…

    They have a premium service, but I can't imagine they're making enough off of that. From what I can tell, they aren't making money, and are just spending investor capital
