All sound is vibration, so everything is affected by sound at some point as the vibrations propagate through and physically move around materials. Humans can hear because the audible frequency range moves receptors in human inner ears, and

The reconnect thing is actually quite helpful for mobile use cases. Say the user switches the tab, closes their browser or loses network and then they return. Since SSE is stateless from the client's perspective, the client can just re

They reopened with formal understanding that there will be an executive order tomorrow to suspend the enforcement of the ban. That is a big deal and it's something that they can point to to defend themselves in court should that happen

The Biden administration signed the thing into law. Of course they need to comply. And people are acting as if somehow TikTok decided to self-ban and have now un-banned. No, it's only those with the app already installed that are abl

If I want to run what someone else has determined as "malware" on my computer, as far as I'm concerned, I should have the absolute right to do it. Same for spyware. Why? Because I don't want the government to make the de

Not talked about beyond heat is maintenance. When things fail, who are you going to send up to fix things? Is it never going to fail, or are they planning to throw away big components or are there going to need to be servicing missions?

There is much more story that you’re either uninformed about or willfully ignoring. The correct move was to remove people from harms way for decisions they have no control over, hence their staff exit from the country.

This is actually really cool. I can see the usages in textarea and inputs but also even in plain HTML documents for large code formatting. No need for exploding the DOM with tons of spans and other HTML tags, if you can have the hardware ac

A simple equation to approximate it is `memory_in_gb = parameters_in_billions * (bits/8)` So at 32 bit full precision, 70 * (32 / 8) ~= 280GB fp16, 70 * (16 / 8) ~= 140GB 8 bit, 70 * (8 / 8) ~= 70GB 4 bit, 70 * (4 /

The production simplicity of having a standardized OS and being able to drop in a .exe and have it run everywhere without worrying about building for 1000 system combinations cannot be beat.

There's nothing special about Windows beyond the fact that you can run arbitrary executable files. The problem could just as easily have happened for Linux or iOS/Mac and in fact it has. ChromeOS kind of works if you want to run a
