    I think it's a paradox in the same way that the non-reverse is. The spending might go down more than it's proportion of price increase. An example not anchored in anything: If publ…

    I'd agree it is about the Neo in the sense that the device and the talk around it obviously triggered this post. I don't think the author is exactly bashing the Chromebook. I'm rea…

    A bit besides the point, but an FDM printer is definitely not good enough to reproduce these somewhat convincingly. That being said, a cheap-ish resin printer will probably do the …

    It's very practical when you use a lot of different devices. It's nice to use native built in email apps, but when using multiple different OSes and device types, it can be very an…

    While I do think that's true, I'd say a more apt analogy is that for humans each model will produce fairly similar results on each prompt, but it helps having 8 billion different m…

    Could be because of shared clipboard between devices?

    Very well put. I've just recently set off time to have a few extended coding sessions, and the results are all over the place. Guided in a good way for well defined tasks, it has s…

    It is actually meaningful though, as it says something about the origin of the materials. Synthetic could still mean that it was based off of animal products.

    I really love the channel, but I can't help to feel that he was held back by his, ehm, limited knowledge of cooking.

    Though I have fairly pedestrian DNS needs, I find dnscontrol[0] a real treat to use. Also makes it possible and easy to quickly flip providers. [0] https://dnscontrol.org/

    I think the point about the question is that both of those answers can be very interesting and spark conversation about your knowledge about, and approach to, computer programming …

    Absolutely every cell phone has the ability to call emergency numbers from a locked device. Even without Sim card.

    I don't intend to drag this discussion on, but in my mind "8x cheaper" doesn't really make sense. I would much prefer "electricity cost 1/8 the price" or "gas was 8x more expensive…

    This all depends on the risks involved. Can I handle it failing, sure, go ahead. There are so many variables that could be involved, not uncommonly including temporal ones. I don't…
