    I think a big part of the reason is that there is only one wireless option -Bluetooth- and it is a terrible product from a user experience perspective. It's 2026 and I still can't …

    The title is disgusting click bait with the hopes to falsely make the reader believe that Solar covered 61% of the total annual power need and not just the YoY delta.

    Jump point search is obscenely fast. It's technically an optimization of A* but the behavior and runtime looks nothing like it.

    "artificial intelligence recursively improving itself until we become subservient to it." Hmm, the cultural zeitgeist is about LLMs. Are LLMs improving anything (in the sense of op…

    That's fantastic. It used to be you had to restart the whole PC after a driver update. If someone could do this for the Web Browser, I could see that potentially being a strong eno…

    Unpopular opinion: User-facing Software Updates are Bad

    Fascinating. I think it's likely incorrect to blame most of the victims here. We are all products of our environment and everyone has their own weakness or specific trigger -no mat…

    The universe is not a flash game. By combining particles into a small number of large "objects" this doesn't reduce computational complexity. Every particle still must be simulated…
