Clearly you just need to buy those team members some nice programming socks so they can finally enjoy rust.

IceFrog didn't create Dota, he took over maintenance of it from a long line of other people at the time, including Guinsoo (who added Roshan and the recipe system) who worked at Ri…

Straight piped trucks can easily hit over 100dB (I've seen numbers as high as 118dB) which is well above the 85dB hearing damage level, and is at the level where hearing damage occ…

360hz screens have been available for about 6 years now and you can get one for $200-300 now. ~500hz monitors have been widely available for ~3 years now, and in the last year we'v…

There really aren't very many different tip types available for airpods, since they use a special clip attachment method that means you can't use any standard existing tips. I've b…

I've owned 2 of these (returned and reordered thinking the first might've just been bad) and neither worked properly on Linux with an AMD 9070xt and an LG CX. They'd have black scr…

If it was a Ferrari it would at least be light. Considering how heavy it is, it's more like a Rolls Royce lol.

> These were icelanders, around 13 years old, tough as it gets re cold. Iceland has a famously mild climate, even during winter their average temperature is still above 0C.

You do know that both the Kobo Libra and Sage have physical buttons, right?

Part of that might be if you're using them wireless because then you're double compressing the audio which amplifies the artifacts (mp3 -> Bluetooth compression).

Apple officially deprecated GL/GLES on both MacOS and iOS 7 years ago, and only ever supported up to GL 4.1 (which came out in 2010), meaning it doesn't support essential "modern" …

No need to transcode to HLSL, DXC already accepts SPIR-V input (and both Chrome and FF are shipping DXC).

E-CVTs are extremely reliable and are different from CVTs (CVTs use a belt attached to 2 cones, E-CVTs are just a single planetary gear set), but a lot of car guys and even some me…

Gas car sales peaked in 2018 globally. EVs are already >20% of new car sales worldwide, and the US is a joke when it comes to EV sales compared to Europe or China. https://ourworld…

Part of the rust dependency issue is that the compiler only multithreads at the crate level currently (slowly being improved on nightly, but there's still some bugs before they can…

The core unity game engine is c++ that you can't access, but all unity games are written in c#.

Linux on arm is actually pretty terrible outside of the server space due to their (Qualcomm, Imagination, and ARM) integrated GPUs being bad and having terrible drivers.

R5s has a garbage CPU that won't be able to handle QoS on probably >250mbps. I'd avoid anything arm based that doesn't have a7x cores (ideally a76/a78 or newer, though I don't thin…

Hell, modern audio codecs (opus and AAC, but not the ffmpeg opus/AAC encoders) are transparent at ~160-192k. MP3 is a legacy codec these days, and generally needs ~30% more bitrate…

Intel GPU drivers have always been terrible. There's so many features that are just broken if you try to actually use them, on top of just generally being extremely slow. Hell, the…

The amount of memory you can put on a GPU is mainly constrained by the GPU's memory bus width (which is both expensive and power hungry to expand) and the available GDDR chips (gen…

To get 128GB of RAM on a GPU you'd need at least a 1024 bit bus. GDDR6x is 16Gbit 32 pins, so you'd need 64 GDDR6x chips, which good luck even trying to fit that around the GPU die…

They're talking about the 16 sampled texture binding limit which is the same as webgl2. If you look at eg. the list of devices that are stuck with that few texture bindings they do…

Counterpoint, play any game without anticheat and realize just how much worse it can be. (and before someone says it, custom servers with dedicated admins doesn't scale and tends t…

Intel Arc GPUs are terrible for Nanite rendering, since they lack hardware support for both indirect draws (widely used in GPU driven renderers, Intel emulates it in software which…
