It is a step in the right direction, and indicates the court may be amenable to a broader recognition of rights violations in the future.

I’d like to say that I enjoyed first learning machine code on a VAX due to its orthogonal instructions and large fans, but it wouldn’t be true, because I learned on a MIPS machine.…

Impressive, but pretty unsurprising given the A series. 100 points higher than the A14 is a less than 10% improvement. From Apple’s somewhat uninformative slides, we should expect …

Those seem unrelated to me? – a pro-vax fan-liker

Ethernet ≠ Internet

We tried LSD and free love already haha https://allthatsinteresting.com/margaret-howe-lovatt

You’re overlooking that each office has a scope of authority. The relevant authority in this case is the Constitution, unless we are no longer a nation of law.

I feel like the above comment is the HN analogue of an old man yelling at skateboard kids from his porch.

We’ve sacrificed a lot of jobs for ideals across human history, and I’m totally okay with that.

The judiciary’s fiscal dependence on the popularly elected bodies is by design and a necessary check on its power. More independent state organs habitually trend towards tyranny. I…

RISC is a philosophy, not so much a set of rules. If you let the creators of RISC define their approach, the division between RISC and CISC becomes more clear. Most summaries of RI…

Justifying lethal force against people running away astounds me. It’s one thing if you’re running away with nuclear launch codes, but I’m skeptical that was the case here.

"When the students poured into Tiananmen Square, the Chinese government almost blew it. Then they were vicious, they were horrible, but they put it down with strength. That shows y…

Are you under the impression that Taiwan wouldn’t welcome US sanctions on China with dancing in the streets? Taiwan was bitterly opposed to detente.

5nm will be a more budget-friendly option for TSMC customers in 2023. This is a conservative proposal, not something bleeding edge.

Definitely true in general, but it would surprise me if the Trump administration wasn’t involved in making this particular project happen, just on the strategic importance alone.

Potentially habitable planets close enough to colonize are rare enough that we can’t afford mistakes either way.

A generalization, but accurate enough. Disappointing to see it getting downvotes. Intel 10nm and TSMC 7nm have similar characteristics, as a brief Wikipedia search reveals.

Fairness at gunpoint is law in a nutshell. Maybe it should surprise us, that our species isn’t good by nature.

JS is inevitable, it just has a flattened curve.

/s I hope. Explicatory edit: The CCP, like every government in history, is motivated to conceal its human rights abuses. China also lacks a free press, an important window into its…

I remember when Linux on Arm was the new hotness. That was 2005.

Thinking of the US as “the good guy” deters improvement. If anything, the US is “the better guy,” a more modest claim.
