I'm not sure it's fair to describe those as hacks. Those techniques are also used for animated movies, which take many CPU-years to render. Those "hacks" are used even when artist have huge amounts of hardware, no…
Imagine that you run a charity. Your job is to save lives. Should you spend every penny you get on medicine and spend nothing on IT? Of course not. It's impossible to run a charity like that. You must have computers,…
Given that your goal is to make toys, the tradeoffs of cryptocurrencies are unacceptable. The whole architecture of cryptocurrencies is based around extreme security and trust. Who needs that level of security for a…
The company they need to beat is AMD. AMD's integrated GPU's are thoroughly trouncing Intel's and are good enough for light gaming. Their weak integrated graphics hurt their core business of CPU sales. They certainly…
That's a pity. I was thinking that maybe Mozilla was getting back on track and making a no-nonsense web browser. Instead they're diverting resources to yet another gimmicky fad.
It's the truth. If reality really is black and white, it's not oversimplifying to acknowledge that. Modern American politics are not complicated.
Most people aren't psychopaths. The man was crazy, but he was still a person and didn't deserve to die. You should celebrate the fact that even people who he antagonized were upset by his death. Even if they reacted…
The woman in your video is just plain wrong. She's as wrong as if she claimed the sky is green or 1 + 1 = 14. The Common Core doesn't specify curriculum. Period. Anyone who cites a specific problem or worksheet as…
Whether or not it's ambiguous doesn't matter much to me. It's confusing. That sentence is bad writing, Oxford comment or no. The goal of language is to understand others and be understood yourself. This kind of formal…
I don't think the blockchain is a good technology. Traditional databases or something like Git solve the same problems better. I have an ideological desire to see more trustless and peer-to-peer systems and I think…
He's right, but I don't like that he's the person saying this. Our society has a serious problem with giving too much weight to the opinions of rich people and celebrities. Soros is not an expert on anything except…
One problem with that is Javascript. Users download and run dozens of untrusted programs a day. I have JS mostly disabled in my browser, but that leaves websites partially broken.
>The reason was data dependencies that I couldn't see, even in the assembly. I don't understand why that would matter. Aren't GPUs in-order? I don't know the low-level architecture of GPUs at all.
>People switched because the features and interface were far superior. No one should use the web interface, let alone "techies." Use a real email client and everything behaves identically.
It's tiny and ubiquitous. Even tiny VMs and embedded devices have Vim.
Someone with a HotMail account has managed to keep a consistent address for about twenty years. That is a good thing. The idea that they should ditch HotMail for the functionally equivalent GMail just because GMail is…
