It’s hard to find any directly comparable benchmarks, but I wouldn’t be so sure that it’s actually faster than the CPU in the Raspberry Pi 4.

Wow, really? That's actually pretty amazing to me.

I know Microsoft has been doing a lot of work on React Native support for macOS and Windows, but I had no idea it was far enough along that they were actually using it for 'real' applications at this point.

I’ve been using the Harmony devices for years, even back before Logitech purchased them.

The software is awful and has always been awful, but the hardware has been pretty consistently solid.

I really wish there was a way to run a custom firmware on these devices, particularly the Harmony Hub + Simple Remote.

Admittedly I haven’t followed this much at all, but it seems like a fundamentally bad idea for the US government to rely on any one single for provider for critical cloud computing infrastructure.

Manjaro is a really great option too, if you want something Arch flavored that’s a bit more user friendly.

Can you share more details on the data source for this?

Seems highly inaccurate for the somewhat rural addresses I’ve checked in Pennsylvania.

Worth pointing out that Netflix has even had a game-like interactive movie called “Black Mirror: Bandersnatch”.

I think you’re making a fundamentally incorrect assumption that you have to politically agree with someone to like them or successfully work with them.

At least for me that’s not the case at all.

I guess diversity includes everything but diversity of political opinion?

Does it not concern you that a significant portion of those surveyed think it’s okay to fire someone for their (financial) support of a political candidate? You don’t have to talk about it for people to find out — it’s part public record if you are contributing more than $200.

Seems insane to me.

While I don't agree that writing a component with a hook is always a mistake, I have seen them used in situations where it wasn't warranted.

In the end, they are just another tool -- knowing how to use the tool appropriately is the critical part.

Is it just me or does this not work correctly in Firefox? The map loads, but no points are visible.

Seems to work as expected in Chrome.

There's also the fact that people are not robots -- just because you tell them to do something doesn't mean they will do it.

As an example -- even among people that are wearing masks consistently, how many of them are actually following the correct protocols around mask resuse or fit?

I’ve tried them, none really work as well as Google’s location history.

Yeah, since what the world needs is more echo chambers.

The economic devastation is hardly hypothetical at this point. It’s happening and clearly observable even here in the US.

Claiming that there is a simple political solution to the current global economic situation is beyond disingenuous.

Man, the comments on this thread on twitter are awful. People are actually upset that Twitter didn’t remove this tweet or ban Elon’s account.

What is the world coming to that people are so afraid of opinions that they don’t agree with?

You’re right — it’s also worth reflecting on the fact that tuberculosis killed 1.5 million people in 2018 [1].

I don’t understand why so many people are trying to analyze the numbers in the US as if we all live in the same place. The US is huge and the situation is vastly different between different states and even different areas within states.

Consider the fact that as of today more than 100k of the confirmed cases in the US are in New York and ~57k of those are in New York City. [1]

I think it’s also troubling that anyone is trying to read meaning into the rate of growth in confirmed cases without taking into account the actual rate of testing. [2]

It might when the economy completely collapses after people are forced out of work for weeks on end.

Worth noting that Rover apparently had a VVC system [1] that allowed the duration of intake valves to be continuously varied all the way back in 1995.

It is fear mongering. The CDC attributed 61,000 deaths in the US to the flu in the 2017/2018 season alone.

I picked up the M142 (Ryzen 5 3500U variant) a couple weeks ago for $329.

I’m super happy with it for the money — there really aren’t any competitors at this price point that are in the same size/weight class. It’s even better that the RAM, NVME (2x) and wireless cards are all socketed — that’s something that most current high end ultrabooks don’t offer these days.

So far I’ve added a Samsung 970 Evo Plus and installed Fedora 31.

FYI there was a Motile subreddit (/r/motile) for anyone interested in discussing these further.

The prices for both the M141 and M142 have been fluctuating on a near daily basis. I picked up the Ryzen 5 3500U M142 for $329 couple weeks ago.

QMK is great — I’ve been using a ‘SpaceFN’ layout on all my 60% keyboards for a few years now and love it.

Not going to happen.

That’s not a testament to over-engineering — it’s just an indication that the bean counters weren’t the ones actually making decisions.

Which shelving unit are you referring to?

A critical detail which was not mentioned in the title: the cars battery was apparently dead.

The problem is that Mini USB tends to fail on the device side, while Micro USB is designed to fail on the cable side.

Really not an issue once you learn how to ride and develop the right muscles. It's all in how you sit and learn to move with the horse rather than just reacting.

I admittedly did use a jock strap when I was first getting started, but within a few months I found that I was better off without it. Even riding bareback (Without a saddle) is completely doable once you have the right muscle stamina.
