Yeah, sure, I'll ditch my Apple Silicon MBP and switch to MNT Pocket Reform for all my computing. So I don't have ugly Liquid Glass.

And where are they now (cigarette companies)?

I have seen indeed a trailer overtake its truck. Not a beautiful view.

Wait till you marry. She will make you play infinite number of games!

Seems it's Recharts.

In fact, in many spa towns you have already local taxes, e.g. "climate surcharge" where you actually pay as a tourist for the clean air. Usually it's a local tax that is added on t…

Exactly! I run it on my old T7910 Dell workstation (2x 2697A V4, 640GB RAM) that I build for way less than a $1k. But so what, it's about ~2 tokens / s. Just like you said, it's co…

Oh, I hoped it's about nuclear weapons. Pitty, it's not. Now, as US is slowly leaving NATO, European countries should urgently work on increasing their nuclear capabilities, develo…

Yeah, I meant cars made for US market from US brands. True, that Ford is US brand with strong European presence, but I think the model line is quite different. Jeeps getting more p…

Yes, it's much worse than 2003. Back then, multiple NATO countries took part in the invasion of Iraq, as US invoked Article 5. Now, 22 years later US is saying "f... o..". In the f…

There's already 10% tariff on cars from US imported into Europe. But somehow I have feeling that even if it would be reduced to 0%, it wouldn't make a big difference Cars of US bra…

3 sales representatives, each sending 20 cold emails per day. Yeah, it should be 3 * 20.

The city of Cracow in Poland banned billboards (and other visual advertising quite aggressively) about 2 years ago. Great outcomes. There are still some workarounds that companies …

go to OECD Data explorer, look for healthcare quality indicators and check there: https://data-explorer.oecd.org/vis?tenant=archive&df[ds]=Dis... you can look for various types of …

I hope so. We were considering migration from on premise to AWS or GCP. Did a couple of simulations, went with renewing hardware for our on premise. It was the right choice. Storag…

Exactly! The best purchase of 2020 was the Concept2 after I was certain I'm will not go back to the gym for another winter due to covid. It's very convenient, weather independent, …

Well, multiple processors mean multiple CPU's, not multiple dice. For example as Dell R840 series, 4xXeon 28 Cores, or R7625, 2xEpyc 96 Cores. I absolutely understand that these ar…

Well, no, they didn't. I understand the idea behind M1/2Ultra. However, it's not exactly the same. Can they put 4 of these dice? And 8? Currently it maxes out at 24 cores per machi…

Interesting, only single CPU. I was thinking, that for Mac Pro they will go somehow with multiple processors and some magic with shared memory access solved in OS. Interesting thou…

I use it and it's quite effective. I just paste text I want to summarise and just ask (GPT-4) to "Create Anki cards for these paragraphs. Keep the answers brief". It does quite a g…

I find that Anki, by showing up the cards at certain (optimised) intervals, delivers distributed practice. Out of the efficient learning methods as evaluated by this paper: "Improv…

I find Anki essential for language learning. Did it for French, starting from 0 and finishing at B2 (except for writing) in two years (also taking a 3h / week course). Especially a…

Last year I finally put my old 2012 13" MBP to rest. I have been using it for 8 years for work, commuting with it to work. 8 years of plugging it in and out at the office and at ho…

Been thinking about something like this but in the end I don't want trouble of additional device to take care of. Tried couple of off-line music players for iOS, but was not really…

And what did you do?
