    I’d be happy to get the advertised charge speeds on my Equinox. The number of times I use a charging station that delivers ~120kW at most is maddening. And it’s this kind of thing …

    I think that’s uncharitable. The study has a very specific goal of assessing whether blue light can keep seniors with problems staying awake from falling asleep early. It’s neither…

    Well, we know that conclusively in the study population of 65+ year olds who suffer from insomnia and suffer from excessive daytime sleepiness

    I think it’s easier to see if you drop the time indices and just introduce a variable for the elapsed time. So: Mary := 24 = 2(A - Δ) A = Mary - Δ And then it’s just substitution. …

    It’s ironic that the README has all the tells of being LLM-written: > 53 numbered rules, 9 sections, written in 1983 by people whose readers die when a sentence is ambiguous. The o…

    Very nice! But I was struck by this: > The last time I had seriously dabbled with exploits and low-level recovery was when I spent months trying to revive a bricked M1 Max MacBook …

    What’s the status of the OpenD fork?[0] I see Adam is still active there but I’m not sure if it’s had any impact beyond losing him as an upstream contributor. [0]: https://opendlan…

    I buy rice from an online store that carries speciality Japanese varieties. The rice is very good. But this year they replaced their previously obviously-English-as-second-language…

    That auditors are responsible for catching the lies of an audited company on penalty of being suspended is a position that the big audit firms would not agree with. They might agre…

    Right now the HR is showing 48 bpm, so this has the fun side effect of demonstrating that the author is in pretty good shape.

    The page appears to be dark themed even without dark mode enabled; if I use Noir to force-add dark mode, then the diagrams indeed become difficult to read but this seems like a Noi…

    Especially interesting because (as one of the compiler team members noted on Zulip) this is a miscompilation relatively easy to stumble into in safe code (yikes). Looks like the ca…

    Atkinson Hyperlegible is an incredible font family! I read much faster and strain much less when I use it. The Braille Institute licenses it under SIL and includes the Glyphs 3 sou…

    I do not think that it is as well-reasoned as that. Far more likely IMO that teams are being evaluated on upsell uptake and so push these requirements to make the number on the das…

    I don’t think I have ever seen ∋ used to mean “such that” so I was very confused until I got to the explanation (as it were; why CONTAINS AS MEMBER is being used to mean “such that…

    To be fair I think the success of JS is in spite of it not working super well

    I have a TS3+ that broke about 18 months in. I talked to support, set up a repair, and before I could send it the dock unbroke and had worked since. Truly mysterious and left me wi…

    The only surprising thing about the Tom’s Hardware example was that John Gruber evidently does not use an adblocker

    It’s your last point that keeps me up at night. I opt out of letting my data be used for training (and don’t use tools like Gemini that make this very difficult or impossible). But…

    Really love this article. Opens with the problem statement and jumps straight into the investigation. Thanks for a very enjoyable read (and an rss feed!)
