In the case of NotebookLM, the AI generated podcasts aren't competing with existing podcasts, they're competing with other ways of consuming the source material. Would I rather lis…

I've found some still have a weird tendency to defend bad UX on apple products, even if it's obviously bothering them. I've heard similar sentiments as in the article too, especial…

This is true, but this was never really a problem for the adoption. Spec delays, no firmware upgrade support, and most importantly no proper backing by phone or gateway vendors. Th…

Isn't named registers an advanced enough feature that it shouldn't be optimized for new users?

In the US, wages, vacation, healthcare, pension plans and care for the elderly are private arrangements set up by everyone individually (technically). The Nordic model is a collect…

Odd not to see Zephyr mentioned at all, it's got way more activity than most (all?) of the projects listed, and many of the sponsors are actively involved.

Yes, actually. I have to charge for 30-40 minutes every 5 hours or so. That fits well with my meal schedule, and most charging stations are at or close to restaurants or shops. Cha…

A VW Golf starts at 35800€, and a VW ID.3 starts at 32800€, taxes included. Overall, electric cars are a bit cheaper than their counterparts, but not a lot. However, today, petrol …

It's not obvious if you come from emacs, but the keyboard centric navigation is very different from traditional IDEs, that usually come with a wide array of buttons with weird icon…

This is true, but the connection request only comes on one channel. The sniffer can be set up to follow an advertiser though, which makes it jump to the next channel in the sequenc…

I wrote some of the firmware for this sniffer. As others mention, Bluetooth Low Energy works on multiple channels, with connections jumping from channel to channel in a predefined …

3) isn't really practical without some storage mechanism though. Sure, you can make a change that sits in ram until the next power cycle, but you could do that with firmware too if…

Truly one of the greatest albums ever made IMO.

+1, this approach will also highlight cases where you're trying to generalize something that isn't as generic as you thought. I'd argue that the need for downcasting in a method wo…

I have published some extensions with about 300k users in total. So far, I've only had two people ask me to publish on open-vsx. I did make one attempt, but something broke in the …

I'm someone else, but I did the same thing 5 years ago. For me, the most productive environment for writing and reading code is an editor with rich language support. Text editing e…

I also joined in 2010-ish, and although the big subreddits have been declining forever, some of the niche ones have improved massively because of the increased number of users. To …

I assume they read the code that tries to parse the data, and come up with formats that don't fit. If the code is open, they don't need accounts to see it

It'll only evaluate the pointer once. It's possible to make this a function though, that might be preferable

Yes. This example is supposedly a common starting point for this type of application: https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/sdk_nrf5_v16.0.0/ble...

Whenever Starbucks try to break into a new city, they'll lower their prices, allowing their stores to take a loss for the first few years, just to starve out the competition. Small…
