It is likely that most of the teslas you saw around Amsterdam were part of the Schiphol airport taxi fleet. They went all in on tesla about a decade ago.
To make meaningful statements about P and NP problems, you probably need to be able to model your problem as a computational one. If for example, you model it as a graph, with a peg represented by a node, and a bounce…
They haven't made slotted ram or storage on their macbooks since 2012 (retina macbooks removed the slotted ram afaik). It might save on thickness, but I'm not buying the slim chasses argument being the only reason,…
>- A megacorp that pays 0% in income taxes still pays a ton of sales tax on things it buys Not familiar with the US, is this actually true? In europe, as a company, you're allowed to subtract VAT on products bought from…
Theres a lot of value in the ecosystem through the asset store, that allows yoi to get up and running much more quickly than if you had to built subsystems from scratch (i.e. You can buy a good water package for <100…
> More languages should have a single, mandatory way to format code, without any ways to opt out. Strongly disagree. Maybe if you're in a very domain constrained environment, i vould see this being valuable. But i write…
Non-USA here (which might affect things): Isn't the point of paying with e.g. a Netflix gift card that they auto-cancel/pause your subscription to Netflix after the gift card runs out of funds? How would that incur a…
Currently have to use sqlalchemy on an existing project, and while I am not necessarily disagreeing with you on ORMs or performance, just wanted to add that chatgpt has been able to reduce my time fighting with their…
Forgive my ignorance: I thought it was the other way around, and you needed some relatively high amount of compression on a vinyl master, since otherwise the grooves would swing too wildly, and the needle would have a…
I have heard this type of reply to this remark (from my side) a few times now. It has made me curious: Are you a type of person that often checks the sources on Wikipedia? Anecdotally: I know that Wikipedia is not…
Does this form a problem for digital mixing consoles? As far as I know, these already have fairly beefy fans for heat exhaust, so I don't know if they couldn't just add more airflow?
If a dealer repeatedly puts a needle in front of an addict, and encourages them to take it, and they end up giving in, who's responsible? The addict is of course not without blame, but at the very least I hope we can…
I might misinterpret the parent, but I think the parents idea is more that it helps when deriving the math used in a lot of video game programming. (e.g. simplifying expressions in shader code, or deriving closed forms…

I clearly haven't, can you elaborate? I thought the steam deck was near universally lauded for it's open and hackable software, repairable hardware and competitive pricepoint. Is there some privacy news or other scandal…
Not sure if you're familiar with Mike Acton (as mentioned in the article). One of his key points of focus is data-oriented design, and that when designing software, ignoring the architectural realities of the hardware…
Why couldn't this be solved by Apple simply adding a feature that allows you to lock the installation sources behind a PIN? We've had these type of restrictions for other subsystems, so I don't see why it wouldn't be…
While the 20ms latency on the Remarkable 2 is very impressive, let's please not say that users "cannot perceive the difference". At best the latency "does not bother" users. There are whole swaths of professions for…
At the risk of being pedantic; it's just a feature, it does not have anything to do with LSP. Plenty of non-LSP IDE's have these features as well (XCode, Visual Studio Classic, etc).

Just to be clear, you're talking about freelance consulting in NL, correct? I can believe that. Based on my conversations with peers, the big consulting firms seem to be the exact opposite however: - Spending endless…
afaik none of Apples other "proprietary software" is designed to pass my personal images to a human for visual inspection if it mistakenly outputs 2 high-enough numbers after a handful of convolution operations and…

I think one of the problems here is that people wanna share code snippets on social media, where generally, the other approaches mean linking to an external github gist or similar, which isn't as visible. I'm not sure…
