i wonder how often you can plug/replug the connector in this case. how will the pcb material hold up? with my press-fit or clip-fit (is that a term?) 3d prints, ive noticed that 20 cycles can be sufficient to induce substantial 'l

i asked gemini to investigate on my behalf, and it basically said that Synadia is to NATS what HiveMQ is to MQTT. seems fair enough. thank goodness for llms to spare us the marketing drivel!

i once sat down to go through this as a challenge, but started to get bored quickly. skipping ahead, i built bash, configured grub to init=/bin/bash, threw in coreutils, and was very thrilled to see my very own "distro"

if anything, this re-inforces the crypto thesis: a centralized authority can destroy your life savings at a whim. i should imagine a whole slew of vitalik buterins were just created.

not at all - its perfectly logical you are cucking the betabuxxed bugs in your kernels with your BFV (Big Formal Verifier)

building, shipping, and then discarding when it becomes apparent that the product doesn't have a future, is about as good as it gets. most businesses have trouble doing just one, let alone all three.

ive always felt that file systems are by far the weakest point in the entire computing industry as we know it. something like zfs should have been bog standard, yet its touted as an 'enterprise-grade' filesystem. why is common sen

is hardware still squirrelled away behind mega paywalls of one or two companies holding all the EDA software? someone at ycombinator should create a "github for silicon IP" company. that would be awesome.

my favourite has always been Visual C++ 2005, with very simple rules: - blue for keywords and integer constants - red for strings and characters - green for comments - black for everything else

very cool. termux has to be peak for unbridled nerddom, the new linux terminal in android 16 is really a pale shadow of it. you don't get access to anything non-virtual, not even the gpu (atleast, i couldn't get it to work.) there

not really a convincing comparison... if i no longer had to poo, that would be pretty cool. yeah its a bodily function but it also kind of sucks and is disgusting and requires a ton of infrastructure to "take care of". being able

google is competing with a different offering. with a pixel you get google's ecosystem. apple is also not neccesarily top dog in performance (maybe they are - havne't checked lately), nobody buys an iphone because it ranks highly

true, true, very true, but i observe you use a nvidia chip. which is perfectly logical. why would you use something that is worse in every single way, right? which is exactly what qcom offerings are...

But intel being "cooked" was a massive psyop. how was intel ever "cooked", when they were still designing, taping out, and delivering massive quantities of CPUs to DCs and consumer products? AMD briefly gave them a run f

theyre going to push "AI on the edge" and "IoT" nonsense again absolutely unbelievably cooked. anyone pushing that nonsense, short with leverage. low latency connectivity + goliath data centres will always beat on-device

perma-video + llms to scrape through it ("where did i leave my keys?" - "you absent-mindedly left them in the kitchen") plus a million other use cases we haven't even thought of will be way too useful to give up. &q
