Where do you see information about the efficiency gains over AV1?

This reveals a staggering level of incompetence, if that’s really all it is, and lack of transparency. They don’t have ANY product-level quality tests that picked this up? Many use…

I agree with all this. I came to Deno because I needed a break from Node/NPM. I don’t agree with all of Node’s decisions (particularly the ES module debacle), but Node/NPM have imp…

I find the irreverent tone refreshing, personally. As a founder who built all my prototypes and side projects on Deno for two years, I personally think Deno’s execution was just ho…

This piece starts off making it sound like the computer is pretty much doing all the work, while the human maybe weighs in on a matter of taste once in a while, if they like, but b…

I always interpreted cathedral vs bazaar as being about the architecture of large things. Do you build to a master plan? Or does everyone do whatever they want? (Within some kind o…

By that logic, Microsoft’s brand means nothing when OpenOffice is free.

A curly brace is multiple tokens? Even in models trained to read and write code? Even if true, I’m not sure how much that matters, but if it does, it can be fixed. Imagine saying e…

I ran into this, and there was a bizarre fix—I think having Adobe apps open in the background caused it, or something.

Upvoted because educational, despite the AI-ness and clickbait. I’ve worked at orgs that used Postgres in production, but I’ve never been the one responsible for tuning/maintenance…

This is some of the best writing I've read in a while, and truly fascinating.

Radix sort is not a comparison-based sort and is not O(n log n).

No, because radix sort is not a comparison-based sort and is not O(n log n).

This semi-explains why I have started to notice (sadly) serious bugs in TextEdit, not just scrolling but editing/corruption.

I think people are missing the fact that Wired has been about “vibes” since the beginning. Wired vs. tired is literally about what’s “cool.” That’s it. It has never been rigorous a…

Googlebot respects robots.txt. And Google doesn't use the fetched data from users of Chrome to supplement their search index (as a2128 is speculating that Perplexity might do when …

I met someone with SDAM who described it in a more striking way. He said he doesn’t have any “first-person” memories. Most people, even if they forget most things they do day-to-da…

I don’t think the parent was saying that everyone’s intentions were pure until recently, but rather that naked greed wasn’t cool before, but now it is. The Internet has changed a l…

Exactly. Trump is practically illiterate and is being handed things to sign. His original ideas that were pushed back on by his advisors in his first term were a different sort of …

Yeah, it's a funny argument because while Apple has certainly put a lot of money into WebKit and JavaScriptCore over the years in absolute terms, they already don't prioritize Safa…

I don’t think it’s anything we get to use. All it says is if you are interested in the font, you can contact the company that made it. It’s weird. Sometimes these announcements are…

That’s my understanding as well. Duplicating the bytes of a file when you don’t have the rights to the content is technically infringement and grounds for an infringement claim, an…

When casually-inflicted trauma and indifference to using you effectively, let alone your needs as a human being, are a constant, while other responsibilities come and go and are ta…

You’re absolutely right. If there are corrections, it’s only because people have gone a little crazy. People sometimes get enamored with the idea of one country or company dominati…
