I wanted to see how big the example clips encoded down to. Or is this just a technical test to see what it's capable of playing back, not an attempt to optimize the video size?

I'm apparently not good at spotting it. I was put off by the overly dramatic presentation. It gets tiring that the author apparently finds this more exciting than I do, and writes …

If you never backed up the keys, any failure of the hardware/software results in loss of everything. Maybe you'd buy multiple of them and copy the keys over. You trust diceware bec…

I saw the weird subtle pattern and first freaked out that my monitor's backlight was failing (high flicker rate revealing LCD refresh patterns). I also was playing a video with the…

Who would ever trust the built-in seed generation of a wallet? Diceware, write them down, then enter them into the wallet.

I'd imagine that counterfeit-prevention is part of it. This theory predicts that they changed the design regularly, and each one was significantly different so operators could quic…

I assumed it was really just AI that found them, which allowed Google to know to fix them.

BTW the web page uses massive iGPU if you don't have a fast machine.

> At least one of those game controller modes even lets keys behave as analog inputs. Now that's a really cool feature I never thought of when considering a Hall-effect keyboard. I…

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch.

Isn't boiled water what goes up into the air?

Why would people get jury trials if bench ones were better? Is it only when the person is innocent?

Rather than wipe the phone to an obvious reset state, this feature should boot into a benign setup with normal contacts etc. after it erases the user's data. Let the user periodica…

Sounds like parent was taking into account all costs, not just certain ones.

So true. "No eggs" https://youtu.be/9he_ZRnZDlk

A variation: you could modify the UI for the next people to deal with. Change font, size, wording, layout.

The whole point of pimpl is to store additional per-object state in a separate object (to reduce header dependencies). So it should act just like normal member variables for standa…

The compiler is the software factory. It builds the executable given the specification (code).

The point of each improvement is fewer easily-made errors. Having implicit deep copying handled avoids lots of errors with manually implementing it the oldest way.

My first thought was that the simplified illustrations of the dishes actually make for quickly finding something, or familiarizing yourself with new foods.

Scrapers prefer old.reddit for the same reason users do: it's lean. Oh well, good thing Reddit has solved the scraping problem. It's a small price to pay to not have their site scr…

> This is much, much simpler than you think it is. Passkeys are just passwords that require a password manager. If you lose your passkey, you'll reset your passkey the same way you…

I don't care how it works, but as long as it requires me to physically have some device to log in (and doesn't have a backup, like emailing me or calling me), it puts security in m…

My compiler knows SIMD. However, knowing the limitations of SIMD might help avoid a calculation that can't be optimized to use it.
