Not all optimizations are more energy consuming. For an analogy, does a using a car consume more energy than a bicycle? Yes. But a using a bicycle does not consume more energy than a man running on feet.

In the same vein, an auto-initiater would work like Me: <Types question and hit send> (Doesn't actually get sent yet) My auto-initiater: Hi Other person: Hi, <...> (no chat notification, the original question gets sent now)

I would not discount NLP tasks just yet. In practice, they are still used to solve problems like spellcheck, autocomplete and even words and text rewrites.

The state of the art models these days would not be able to be bundled with browsers. These are typically neural models [0] and require specialized hardware to run, and also have high memory requirements. The models in browsers are light-we

Comparing the spellcheck quality of Firefox to Google (search, not Chrome) might not be completely fair. The browser most likely uses a client-side spelling model with tight memory & performance constraints. The suggestions from Google

Not sure about TV shows but for films (especially Netflix originals), that's partly due to the recent trend of films getting shot for TV viewing experience. These films tend to have fewer "wide" shots and more "character

The argument for tabs really goes that time is spent much more on reading code than authoring, so it should be optimized and customizable (tab width) for the reader.

> Convert comments to code. Write a comment describing the logic you want, and let GitHub Copilot assemble the code for you. I don't know if Copilot does it already but I would love if there was a tool that does exactly the opposite

I don't see why. It is on Copilot to produce syntactically correct code that at least doesn't fail to run, even if we ignore the correctness.

I hope this will mean we can finally stream 4k content on Prime Video, Disney+, et al. in Windows PC.

Just looked at his twitter and interestingly his tweet ~4 hours ago [0] says "I was wrong about #Bitcoin.". Though it is likely an April Fools joke. [0] https://twitter.com/PeterSchiff/status/13776262546

This makes me curious that suppose value of bitcoin since then had dropped to say less than $1 for some reasons, would he still be fined the same amount?

Have you tried switching to the ads model on Android (like suggested by your app's Android feedback/reviews)? I am curious if that would increase your revenue from Android users and somewhat lower piracy?

One reason would be because std::set guarantees O(log n) complexity for each operation on the worst case. std::unordered_set has average complexity O(1) and O(size) for the worst case (it being a hash table) which can be unexpected to debug
