This is a 100% online bank account you typically open from an app. The typical clientele will just use the "selfie" auth.

Conman-level of statement, from the same person that said he would be "worried" if his engineers were not spending an amount of token comparable to their salary.

I believe it was disproved, but regardless, there is a lot between accepting an hypothesis and possibly valid and building a conspiracy around it. I don't about this case, but this conspiracy typically degenerate in anti-science behavi

The ridiculous things I was asked to do, and observed other people doing, all because "one day we will gave thousands of clients" while at the same time struggling to push out just a few units.

I only see a bunch of references to swift (very much not portable), but I did skip the Q/A style section. I see he mentions portability, but still no mention of actual portable frameworks. The word "macOS, "apple" or &qu

ah, you mean after the accident. Well for starter I would acknowledge the issue (thing that according to the liked thread did not happen, maybe it did not affect enough customers?). Then they should either provide an official recovery guide

"Bricked" is a bad term for system without a proper software/firmware update path. A LOT could have been done here to improve "repairability" (with quotes, because this is a software issue on a perfectly fine mainbo

I see your point, but what i'm talking about is the company generating a strong incentive to people to buy upgrades or replacements. This whole submission is about a user going extra length to recover a perfectly functioning main board

My conspiracy theory is that selling parts is pretty much their main business case. A modular gpu using a new standard that is form-factor specific for only a specific model? Matte panel released a few months after the first 13.5 model was

I heard a lot of talk about porting to coreboot (they even sent some motherboard to some coreboot developers I think). Not sure what is stalling there, but sounds like a priority. For the EC, I feel like a team of a single developer could a

I really don't understand how in 2025 a competent company can't implement a trival A/B flash update. Do they depend on some obscure contractor for the firmware and have no power here?

I would not call Mamdani a populist, but I don't follow the political situation in usa that closely

by anthonj 2mo ago
Every populist party works that way, by promising very "sensible" thing. They work like an echo chamber for trendy political ideas. Whether or not they are actually capable or even plan do any of that it's a different matter.

I don't really get the point of the article. Even if I knew little about python, would be it surpsing that a language with no real basic types is probably abstracting a lot? Even a simple i=0, i=i+1 is "hiding" a lot in pytho

I think this call for something similar to "__builtin_expect" or linux' likely()/unlikely(). Not very clean, but better than inserting obscure optimisations in the source.

Some level of english is required in every country. And you are exposed to it quite frequently in a way or the other (which european country doest start teaching it from elementary school? ). My uni required me to follow course in english a

I know some electronic and mech engineers with no german skills, but it's always in young startup in major cities.

I think there is also a chicken-egg problem in almost every country that doesn't use English as official language: If you are not an engineer you must have an almost excellent level of local language --> an excellent level of a lang

I imagine, be he mentions video playback on youtube making things worse, and he does have a dedicated amd gpu. But iirc for both Firefox and chromium on Linux desktop hw acceleration is tricky so maybe it's that.

I see the problem, but I don't see a clear analysis on the actual source of the problem. I assumed the issue was mainly single core performance, but he is also suggesting context switches could be the cause? So could you fix that with

Others comments already mentioned multimedia, but for example where I work we have some development board and prototypes with 10g ethernet, but most developers have a laptop rather than a fixed station. Turns out smallish (but overly expens
