The very article you posted backs up the claim in the very first paragraph.

No, you should not do this. Go to a dentist immediately. You will eventually develop an infection, and they can be quite serious.

It's an interesting theory, and it may well be true, but I'm going to need to see studies before taking this idea seriously.

IMO I would be better off not reading the writings of the Karl Marx of fascism.

Competent programmers can learn Go directly from the spec https://golang.org/ref/spec, the playground https://play.golang.org/, and the standard library docs https://golang.org/pkg/.

It's also a great way to destroy your neck and back. If you thought you had problems with ergonomics at your desk, it will be way worse typing away in a bed.

I doubt "We" includes me, from the perspective of the New Yorker.

In Canada, you can't call yourself an engineer unless you are a P.Eng.

Absolutely, the M1 is extremely impressive and the best performer in its class by a long shot.

Yeah, that's irrelevant. One M1 core is not going to use its entire package power either, because there are other powered cores in there like the GPU.

Look at the chart again. One Ryzen core active, 37 watts total package power. It doesn't matter what the per core wattage is, because you can't get that one core without the package.

This isn't an apples to apples comparison like the author says, because the package power (37W) of the Ryzen is still quite a bit higher than the M1's. You can see it right there in the graph from Anandtech.

The 5800X is a beast of a CPU. The IPC improvements over the previous generation really are incredible. It's not surprising to me at all that it beats the M1 in several benchmarks. However, it's not the same class of device at all.

Maybe not in your dialect of English, but what about older dialects?

"Pay for your beer. Else, leave this place at once!"

"I will wait" and "No" are really the same answer.

Yeah, I recently discovered while evaluating Deezer that it doesn't function without scripts from facebook. So, I didn't subscribe.

Put another way, I care as much about pharma company profits as pharma companies care about my personal health.

Why should I, a person who is not a large pharma company, care about this?

That's a false equivalence. This type of data doesn't represent a security threat.

It seems to have been worth $400.

I use Fedora on a 4K 15" display with an Intel GPU, and the scaling works fine. However, the Intel GPU is a tad underpowered for the task.

Consumer NVMe devices can deliver GB/s I/O and hundreds of thousands of iops. The article's point doesn't hinge on Optane at all.

I'll explain how, even though I suspect you didn't take the time to think about it. It's because police groups are a command and control hierarchical organization. They aren't some loose group of people that share an attribute. When police officers commit crimes, their commanding officers share the responsibility.

A very nice surprise. It's been known anecdotally for many years! (https://erowid.org/plants/mushrooms/mushrooms_medical1.shtml)

Science sure moves slowly when there's artificial barriers in place, like the object of your research being a Schedule I substance.

This is an implementation of the "ports & adapters" or "hexagonal architecture" pattern. Seems like you may have independently discovered it. :)

That's a nonsense argument. Words don't just pop out of existence if there are no instances of the things they describe.

The problem is Ruby itself.

Implicit return, whether you like it or not, is frankly a weird feature, and is sure to rub some people the wrong way.

You're absolutely correct. Especially in the low-power segment, which AMD and nvidia have really ignored lately.

If you want a <=75 watt GPU, which happens to be the limit for the PCIe slot without an external power connector, you have very limited options. For nVidia, the 1650 is the only modern part that will fit the bill. For AMD, you have to reach back to the RX 500 series, but good luck finding one. They're extremely uncommon even among the lower-end 500 series, as many of them require an external connector anyways.

AMD do have lower-powered "workstation" offerings, but they're so expensive that it's hard to imagine putting one in a workstation voluntarily. They're also extremely poor performers, to the extent that you might not really see much of a benefit over a Vega iGPU.

The Xe Max is only 25W TDP, which is very attractive if you're hoping to build a passively cooled Linux machine with a low-wattage power supply.

Sure, maybe he's a criminal and deserves punishment, but how about letting NZ decide that instead of the USA?

What would you have written freetype in?

Conifer trees take a lot longer to establish naturally. It often takes a cycle of aspen or poplar trees, followed by a fire, for conifers to start growing and thriving. I don't know how long that typically takes, but I think it could easily be a human lifetime.

Planting conifer seedlings can result in a young forest in as little as 20 years. Typically this is done to ensure a future harvest for the softwood lumber industry. Logging enterprises are the primary planters of trees in British Columbia, as they are required by law to reforest land that has been deforested.

The trees that are planted are typically some mixture of pine and spruce in the interior dry regions, or a mixture of hemlock, spruce, and cedar in wet or coastal regions.

This results in a somewhat synthetic forest that isn't really like a natural forest, but grows quickly. The trees that I planted when I was 23 are likely over 4 meters tall now.

Source: I worked as a tree planter for 3 seasons, grew up in a pulp & paper town, have known a lot of forestry people.

I'm sure they would absolutely love to dictate this.
