> Under the terms of the deal, Google will pay SpaceX $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029 for access to “approximately 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, memory, and other related components.” That part…
This is not just free speech, it's commerce, and the government has the ability to regulate commerce. Warranties and lemon laws are not regulating speech - they're regulating sales and the legal requirements for those…
I would guess that the big reason is Microsoft is the owner of Typescript. Apple, Google, and Mozilla probably don't want to be tied to the whims of someone else's language specification. It's the same reason Dart isn't…
She had serious debilitating medical issues from pregnancy where she lost a ton of blood and was in a coma for several days and nearly died. Of course she's going to take her severance to help care for her family given…
The argument Socrates is making is specifically that writing isn't a substitute for thinking, but it will be used as such. People will read things "without instruction" and claim to understand those things, even if they…
I saw myself years ago that Verizon injected marketing tracking headers into http traffic. My ISP was the MITM. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2014/11/verizon-x-uidh
I don't think it was explicitly to compete with Microsoft. Gabe explicitly said when the Windows 8 App Store was announced that Valve was going to ensure Microsoft couldn't lock them out of the desktop market. He said…
Chrome's engine was WebKit originally, which they then forked. Not an acquisition, but benefitted greatly from prior work.
Which SoC should they switch to? Google's Pixel phones for Android 16's release just updated[0] their kernels to 6.1, which means the bleeding edge kernel version for Android phones is a release from December 2022. What…

I wanted to use KDE 4 when it released, but it kept crashing on my machine. I would update it every once in a while and try again but issue would always pop up. By the time "plasma 4.4 is stable" was declared, I had…
Portugal did it nationally. Oregon did it as one state that already had soft enforcement of drug use and a lot of social services, which had already drawn people from other states before the ballot measure. The weather…
Copyright makes the legality of arXiv and SciHub questionable at best. It locks publicly funded research behind paywalls. It makes being able to search the law (including case law) of the US incredibly expensive. It…
There is a niche for small, mobile handhelds, with companies such as Retroid and Ambernic making devices with smaller screens. Interestingly even in this niche the proportion of truly mobile vs. portable is seeing the…
Having used the API with a polyfill, it is a bit verbose and may seem a little obtuse at times. However, it allows you to explicitly differentiate between Date, Time, (Plain)DateTime, and ZonedDateTime. I have had to…
It need not be someone in the US, just a country which is not one of a few named adversaries. A Singaporean owning company would comply with the law just as well.
Shopify actually might be appropriate for many of their use cases.
I'll second the sibling poster here by saying anything useful you want to do with WordPress will probably have a non-negligible cost, and usually a subscription. WooCommerce for instance requires a subscription to add a…
A couple of factors keep most hurricanes away from the mountains. There's a strong gulf stream current that tends to lead hurricanes up along the east coast, sometimes as far north as NYC. And also the Gulf of Mexico…
Likewise I've used Fantasque Sans Mono (related to Comic Sans) for a long time as a coding font.
I'm running SUSE Tumbleweed. Fast package manager, up-to-date versions of just about every package you could want. Never had any driver issues or issues installing.
The iPhone 15 pro has a Thread radio, so we may start to see it become more common.
Ge'ez and its adaptations are abugidas, which means one symbol is a full syllable. For Amharic there are over 200 individual symbols. [0] That would be a big keyboard! It does seem that most in-use languages in Africa…
Programming books are definitely becoming more hit or miss, as the volume of books has increased dramatically in the last 10-15 years. There are still great books, but there are a lot more bad ones out there. There's a…
Supabase is built on top of PostgREST, which is written in Haskell.
