Look, it's kind of like that 1982 HydraTech 16ft bass boat with a pearl glitter paint job thats on Craigslist. When the wife asks, you low balled it and they accepted - an offer too good to refuse.

I got an essentially free upgrade from an M1 air to an M4 air and let me tell you...there is zero difference in day to day usage. You've got another 5+ years of headroom at least.

Sous vide are even cheaper now, $30 for a basic one, provided you've got a stock pot or something large enough to set it in.

Salamander broiler would be incredible to have at home. We get decent results from using a cast iron pan thats as hot as we can get it. At most we can sear 2 steaks as it tends to cool off pretty quick even under high heat. Got any better a

Automatic litter box is a great example. We've had one for ~7 years and it's still going strong. High initial cost that pays back every day over the course of what will likely be a decade+ of usage. Absolutely worth every penny if

Exactly. When I change my engine oil, I just dump it into the street for the same reason - nobody is dying from my actions directly.

Both of those problems you cited are far smaller and easier to fix than the ~1,500 gigatons of C02 humans have emitted in the past century. CFC's have a half life of only 50 years, C02 just persists now forever since we're dumping

Interesting to hear a different perspective on the touchbar. I have yet to meet someone who liked it. Removes touch typing, requires you to refocus attention, etc. Changing the volume is easy, button same place always - but with touch bar I

100% All the touch screen does is make it top heavy and the hinge less effective at damping the movement.

I agree generally that on Mac you can 'get by' with 8gb and for the target audience on this, and how they'll likely use it - it's totally acceptable. But if it's for serious work, this is not the device. 'Manag

I'm curious, what does the 'determine intent' mean in this case?

It doesn't hurt to add it....but it doesn't help as it's happened to me.

It's an absolutely brilliant bit of maths that breaks a complex waveform into the individual components. Kind of like taking an orchestral song and then working out each individual instrument's contribution. Learning about this le

Then use ChatGPT/Gemini/Claude on your phone. They are giving it away for free - if you NEED a local LLM, the least you can do is spend the 2 minutes to download LMSTudio and pick a model.

I trusted them to at least pick an encryption that only they could break...rather than one that other nation states may be able to crack as well.

Some hobbies also happen to be exercise and can be done nearly daily. Just do more of them and now there's a much lower 'cost' to exercise. Whether or not you find these types of hobbies enjoyable is another story.

Intel ARC B580 is $249 MSRP and right up your alley in that case.

Your use of "historically" in the context of diamonds only means the past 100 years. Prior to the marketing of diamonds, sapphire was most common.

Keep it if you have sentimental feelings towards it. Sell it if the primary value is the price of the materials.

They might but if I recall MRNA stuff is pretty new - and getting the clinical trials through the entire process and approval takes quite a long time.

Maybe 20 years ago. On-shore wind and solar are currently the cheapest practical way to make electricity based on LCOE. https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/aeo/electricity_generation/pdf/...

While it would be neat to build batteries that handle manufacturing defects akin to a CPU with 4 cores but 3 useable, I suspect the additional complexity, wiring, and circuitry is limiting. Batteries today are almost (or actually?) a commod

When you make decisions that favor an industry while also take money from them, it's safe to assume they're 'siding' with that industry.

Not a user but I imagine it's like the blackberry model where texts, messenger, whatsapp, and whatever else all go to the same inbox rather than having to check 40 different apps. I really wish that idea would come back.

This is an interesting perspective. Genuine question: would it not be the other way - seeming lower than actual resolution when slightly moving? Why? Could this be used to simulate a higher pixel density? Maybe doing something crazy vibrati

Prompt is what the model is told in addition to whatever you ask it. Tokens are how the model puts together words. More words = more tokens.
