I think there's a difference between cancelled (or renamed in the case of Google Home and Nexus) product lines and something no longer working. Most of that list falls into the for…

No they won't. Oracle already has many teams that report to a people manager in India/Mexico/etc. and then dotted line report to another manager in the USA who actually calls the s…

I've been using Rectangle ( https://rectangleapp.com/ ) for years now. IMO the shortcuts actually make it a massive improvement over Windows.

How do you bird-proof them?

This specific paper is pretty different to the kind of photo/video generation that has been hyped up in recent years. In this case, I think this might be what they're using for the…

> Yes, this is something concrete that I can agree on. But how would you prove that given that we don't have access to that data? Without that data you can't really draw any conclu…

Interesting to see this is so variable. I got a Steam Deck OLED a few months ago. I haven't changed the standby behaviour at all. I can get a bit less than a week of standby + a fe…

I believe they mean it lasts 14+ hours in sleep.

I get where you're coming from, but I think you need to understand that the vast majority of people (conservatively maybe >95%) are perfectly fine with using Amazon. If you just st…

I love Dear Hank and John, but IMO it's nothing like 99PI.

AFAIK the average emissions are based on cars that were actually sold. So yeah, it's weighted for popularity in a way.

Apart from IBM Power/AIX systems, SPARC/Solaris is another one. I wouldn't say either of these are used a lot, but there's a reasonable amount of legacy systems out there that are …

The expectation is that anyone looking at Pimoroni products will probably just 3D-print (or produce in some other way) a case. They're not trying to sell this as a finished product…

That's the point though? They're trying to show off the functionality of the display/board to interest you in using it for a side project (might not even be a calendar). Pimoroni's…

I don't think the SL7 is a like-for-like comparison even if it seems like it on paper. The SL7 is great if you want/need to run Windows - I convinced my sister to get one and she l…

Very interesting read as an Australian. Helped me with understanding why US politics feels so different to Australia despite the cultural similarities.

ML is still a thing. I believe that most AI research is still non-LLM ML-related - things like CNN+Computer Vision, RL, etc. In my opinion, the hype around LLMs has a lot to do wit…

Definitely most Australian cities. In Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne or Perth you'd be waking up in the middle of nowhere in most cases.

I don't understand the issue with cast iron pots after reading that either. My understanding is that to get iron overload, your body would need to absorb excess iron and store it. …

I'm from Brisbane and it seems like a lot of new build free-standing houses don't have awnings around here. I think most still have pretty deep eaves, which do an ok job. However, …

Oh that's what that is. I saw this on YouTube in Firefox the other day and thought YouTube was just A/B testing a quirky new way to display view counts.

I'm unsure about Indonesia, but domestic customers in that region would be pretty limited. The closest major power users would be in Queensland (>1000km) away.

I'm pretty sure G.Fast was never actually deployed for NBN FTTC. It was planned/announced in 2021-2022, but eventually NBN came about their senses and decided to do FTTC -> FTTP up…

I think Spotify's podcast UI is so awkward and terrible it has held back their growth. I started listening to podcasts 3 years ago because how easy Spotify had suddenly made gettin…
