    Honestly that seems like a good result to me? Did you look at the product? Earbuds Connected by wires to a thing that you can dangle around your neck

    5090 was an example, same process applies to lower tier GPUs that don't require extra power cables. ie a 3080 with the same power budget as a 1080 would run circles around it (1080…

    Then get a modern GPU and limit the power to what your 1080 draws. It will still be significantly faster. GPU power is out of control these days, if you knock 10% off the power bud…

    Brandon Sanderson only wrote the last book though? (which he split in two because all the stuff Robert Jordan wanted to cram in would have been a ridiculous 2000+ page tome) so it …

    That is talking about the 2023 Executive Order about training AI. Not the recent one about chip exports.

    That would be true for the 4090, but the 3090 is even more cut down so the 5090 is about 100% faster in rasterization (based on the 4090 being nearly 70% faster than the 3090 and t…

    `bar` is 2 because `setFoo` does not update the value of `foo` until the next render

    And then you go full circle when the project is bigger and Find Usages no longer works across projects (specifically in the context of a typescript monorepo) and it's back to grepp…

    Just chipping in as someone who is a tremendous fan of the books (I've read all of them 4 or 5 times and listened to the audio books twice). I _hated_ the series, I was very excite…

    Enabling the `envfs` service fixes the bash shebang issue `services.envfs.enable = true;` Disclosure: I don't know if this has any downsides, I haven't run into any

    I could hit triple digits WPM without knowing how to touch type. I just learned adhoc how to type very fast from gaming as a teenager. I haven since learned how to touch type (and …

    Not if you have a keyboard with easily reflashable and programmable firmware (such as the Moonlander). If the firmware has built in support for layers it becomes trivial as you can…

    I almost exclusively use Colemak-DH and have 0 issues typing in QWERTY when I have to. I chalk it up to my phone keyboard still being in QWERTY so I get enough exposure from that t…

    FWIW I have the opposite experience, I never buy digital playstation games unless I'm forced to because they all sell for MSRP in New Zealand ($129/$139 NZD), whereas I can always …

    >Does this improve Git's support for large binaries generally No, this still uses LFS for larger binary formats (ie raster or point cloud datasets)

    Yes for renting an instance from AWS. Minimum lease time is 24H iirc. But that's not the case for Github Actions (and so I assume Azure Pipelines). You pay per minute, it's just 10…

    From skimming the paper[1] they pulled that number from it seems... not the best metric. It looks like they are estimating the power consumption of the internet, then dividing that…
