I have a Hisense HiReader Pro and it's awesome + super usable for actual day to day phone things on wifi, but the cell reception overlaps with a single LTE band in the US that's no…

I have a HiSense HiReader Pro that I picked up right when it came out. It's absolutely loaded with nonsense + makes zillions of requests to Chinese IPs and it takes ages to figure …

Seems like this is more of a "PostgreSQL distribution with search extensions" than "ParadeDB is an open source ElasticSearch alternative built on Postgres..." Interesting, sure, bu…

fwiw that's a vehicle with a modified exhaust (and not a particularly fast one to begin with)

Also anecdotally in this group - switched from AT&T yearly prepaid (25$/m or so) to post-paid Verizon because it got worse and worse over the three years I had it. Throttling got s…

> American pickup truck driver never asks his gigantic blacked-out coal-rolling Ford F-150 Raptor I'd love to know how a gasoline powered F-150 can roll coal.

Fastmail!

It'd be an excellent joke to not fix it

I can’t wait for the day the EU actually tries to enforce their laws on individuals and companies with no presence there. Will be a fun extradition battle to watch

Many of the points in this article are entirely a matter of implementation, not inherent to or ingrained in any particular architectural choice. You can just as easily build a high…

I used to use mithril for almost every new project I'd start, but I've switched over to using React w/ Hooks for just about everything for two main reasons: - toolchain support is …

> TC2 is based on the 2017 TF2 source code leak ... Has Valve ever made a statement on this? Sounds like a terrible idea to me / this could be taken down on a whim by Valve.

The third point is extremely close to how trucks have always been built. Body-on-frame construction has been prevalent in the automotive industry for a very long time. Ever see a c…

Is it just me or did apple just bungle this entire announcement by not announcing a consumer facing ARM MacOS device, only a hot-rodded Mac Mini with an iPad Pro chip inside. How m…

I'm pretty sure google allows you to do this though, so Apple isn't bypassing any "rules" on android.

by doing this, do you suggest also tying your dependencies versions to those packages with the distro version you're running?

I absolutely agree. The one time I had the great misfortune of building software for windows I was extremely happy to see Go worked at all. Linux and OS X largely work the same way…

I’m pretty sure all roads above 55mph in the US are restricted access (exit/entrance ramp only) interstates - not highways with stoplights and intersections.

VINs roughly follow patterns, so if you know one, you can figure out many other cars with very little brute force effort. vinwiki probably has a guide explaining them somewhere if …

This is neat, but the way blueprintjs handles Hotkeys is my absolute favorite of anything I've used. https://blueprintjs.com/docs/#core/components/hotkeys It's essentially a JS dec…

Kinda anecdotal, but the one in Richardson (DFW) is almost always packed. Easily one of my favorite brick and mortar stores anywhere.

Go, Postgres and a dirt simple React/Typescript/Parcel app as the frontend. 99% of the time you won’t need anything else.

Ah, I've been assuming that a vCPU == a CPU hyperthread since forever, hadn't realized that changed.

Both EPYC and Intel chips behind these? So is there potential for much different performance between the same sized instance based on chance?
