Wait, someone banned Bone?

Intel still fudges their numbers. They just fudge their numbers less than everyone else.

That's why they do it. The sizes of Intel's 10nm is similar to or slightly smaller than everyone else's 7nm. Compare https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/7_nm_lithography_process and https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/10_nm_lithography_process .

Exactly. You can keep going back and it was always happening on the Internet. I was doing this on various forums before 4Chan was a thing. People were doing it nearly a decade before I was born, on BBSes in the late 70s.

But that's how it works. You should assume everything you've ever posted to another server could someday become public record. Especially with social media since it's being posted specifically to be viewed by others who may copy and redistribute that data at any time.

People redistribute snaps all the time even though they're supposed to "go away", yet people still use it.

I agree, but they were out of the parts business well before Arduino and Raspberry Pi were a thing. The last Radio Shack in my area that stocked resistors closed in 2006. There's none near me now, but since ~2000 they'd been mostly phone stores that also carried the occasional batteries and cables.

Amazon customer support helps you select items to buy?

You can switch to Firefox ESR to keep using your extensions and give the extension authors more time. ESR 52 will be supported with fixes until June.

I've come across places that wouldn't consider scripts and such to be "side projects". They expect something much larger to be of any consequence. And they want it to be somewhat relevant to the work they do.

Even if they dive into a corner of your side project from 10 years ago that works, but you realize isn't ideal, and you don't have the time to improve that part of the code?

I actually like this idea for cleaning services and such. Now you don't have to arrange giving them a key and trying to track down that key when you're done with their services. Tracking down that key is the worst. They have no incentive to give it back.

I'd like to see how Amazon manages the access. Can access be revoked manually? Can you generate your own access permissions to give to a friend? Is this access code a one-time code?

I don't go crazy with tabs and I like to clean up my tab bar by closing old tabs. It's rare that I have more than 20 at a time open.

It might be a placebo effect, but I find that I switch back and forth between Chrome and Firefox every 6-12 months after the one I'm using feels slow and the other feels faster. Maybe they're actually leapfrogging each other in performance, maybe not. I'm currently on my Chrome phase.

No, but more speed and less power consumption is good for laptops.

They're trying to sell them, they just did it badly and are now scrambling to catch up. That said, they are slowly catching up. Restock frequency has been slowly increasing.

If you want one, set up alerts on brickseek.com, nowinstock.net and zoolert.com. Every few days they pop up somewhere online or locally. They're still scarce but it's possible to get them. Amazon had stock for almost an hour when I bought one a few weeks ago. Using these alerts I got two in the last month. One for me, and a second just for the controller. The official controller is even harder to find than the console.

It's unfortunate that they don't specify what those adjustments are.

FYI It's actually 8 years old for the EeePC 901 and the last 32-bit Atoms came out in 2009.

Good point about other distros catching up. Arch will be updating 32-bit until at least November and it could be another year or more until others like Tiny Core or Debian catch up to the package versions that Arch left off with. Will that now 8+ year old hardware still be worth using enough to switch distros when it is 10+ years old?

It's not a majority of millenials, it's a majority of millenials with six-figure investments. Check the report.

If by help you mean financially and aren't including help using their time/talents, then yes. I know a lot of people who would be much better off if their parents could help financially, but their parents could not afford such assistance. Assistance of time/talents is possible too, but not reported on here.

There's a list of what was counted: Health insurance, Home buying/renting, Auto insurance, Utilities, Spending money, Vacations, Large purchases, Online accounts (e.g., Netflix), Taxes

Some could argue that counts as "spending money", but I don't think it would count unless it was a recurring thing.

Same here. My parents have given of their time (occasional babysitting), but haven't needed to give financially. The only thing in that report that I've received was a period of a few months of living with my parents after college before getting my own apartment. I worked during college to pay for the portion of that cost that wasn't paid for by scholarships, so I had no debt after college. It's not that they didn't want to help financially, it's that it wasn't needed. My wife is in the same situation with her parents. They support with their time, but financial support isn't needed.

Could I have done more, had an easier time starting out on my own, or gone on vacations with financial support from my parents? Probably, but I don't think that's necessary. My parents taught me what I needed to succeed on my own and that's what I see as important.

While I agree with you on free child care, this article doesn't even consider that. It's all financial support exclusively.

madengr is right, the Atari ones have been available since 2004. They've put out a new version of it every other year or so. This year is their 7th version of the Atari Flashback. https://www.amazon.com/Atari-Flashback-7-Classic-Game-Consol...

There's ones for Intellivision (https://www.amazon.com/IntelliVision-AtGames-Flashback-Class... ) and Colecovision ( https://www.amazon.com/ColecoVision-AtGames-Flashback-Classi... ) too, but those have only been available for the last few years.

This article explains well why I avoid startups. I've considered joining some, but always get turned off by the interview phase. The ones that bug me the most...

> Fuck your crazy work hours

In my opinion, if you're working crazy hours, you've already failed, likely due to poor management of the project. The only exception I see is if you don't really have a life outside work and are working on a project that you're really passionate about, but even then it should be a temporary thing.

> Fuck your open space floor plans, You really think Zucks builds a Facebook’s 2017 roadmap while a nerf war is ranging outside

I want to get work done and move on with life, not play silly office games. Open space floor plans kill my focus.

> Fuck you startups with your extravagant parties and crazy off-site events that cost way too much money

I've never understood this. I want to work for your company. If I want to go on vacation, I'll do it with my family, not my coworkers. I have no desire to be best friends with all my coworkers.

Moore's Law has nothing to do with clock speed.

Where are the phones with similar specs to the current flagship phones, but that are thicker and have a bigger battery? All the big battery phones have slower hardware and poorer screens. That's why they don't sell.

The closest thing I've seen is the S7 Active. It looks good, but I'm on T-Mobile, so it wouldn't be a great idea to get one.

"After a year, Android Marshmallow has barely managed to hit 7.5 percent"

Wow, years are a lot shorter than I remember. Android Marshmallow was announced May 28, 2015 and was released with the Nexus 5X and 6P on September 29, 2015. So 11 months since announcement, and 7 months since release.

The author has a point about too few users being on the latest release, but let's get the facts straight.

OVH's download is cheaper but Backblaze is $0.005/gb/month so unless you're doing a lot of downloading, it's lower cost than OVH.
