I think this just comes down to human nature. Give people (engineers, execs) a metric that looks like a good proxy for performance and they will overcommit on that metric as it is a safer bet than thinking outside the box. I think the incremental improvements in deep learning with all those benchmarks are a similar situation.
That’s why we need rules and regulation around gatekeeper platforms like iOS and android. If both demand 30% there is no choice not to pay in certain circumstances.
I understand your sentiment as I am annoyed by similar issues. But the wireless in ear headphones also changed a lot how we use them. I guess it’s similar for glasses. People will appreciate the auto focus but will inevitably complain if batteries run out or glasses malfunction.
Thanks, that’s what I ended up with. Now I can set up my own domain and slowly move everything to that during the year.
I find the topic interesting and want to both experiment with the ortholinear and split concepts. But the main thing holding me back is the same reason I am using zsh and not fish: compatibility. I don’t want to confuse myself with two ways of typing when I need to work on another pc and I will not be using a split keyboard on my laptop for example.
Nice I wanted to play with eink displays at some point but they are still quite expensive.
This is from the article: „If there are any genuine users of these drivers remaining that are still running an upstream kernel, the drivers can always be reverted / merged back but otherwise they are gone without anyone maintaining them.“
Stupid question, but do they prevent google from recreating their own browser? Chromium is mostly open source. They could just fork the project, rename it and support it much better than the open source community. This would place them again as the most used browser due to conveniences of ecosystem integration etc.
I think that’s still new, in terms of adoption.
IoT at home is still new and it’s good that there are explorative attempts. Just don’t expect to be there when the market found what works.
Yeah globalization probably changes cultural celebrations a lot. Interesting perspective.
I also like the LTSC version for my workstation, less nonsense.
I had the same experience.
Infrastructure is not free.
Kinda similar to musks LOC requirement. But at least with NVIDIA this idea directly correlates with more business if it spreads beyond the company
