It was already shown that SteamOS is way better in terms of battery performance than Windows. So if Windows uses power saving mode by default, these results are even more damning:
There might be some tweaks to mitigate some of the short comings of Windows, but that doesn't changed that the script has flipped. Before it was Linux that required tweaking and Windows would have a decent out of the box experience. Now SteamOS works great out of the Box while Windows needs tweaks. And at that point there is no reason for sticking with Windows unless your software specifically demands it.
Yes, because just because you bought a book you don't own its content. You're not allowed to print and/or sell additional copies or publicly post the entire text. Generally it's difficult to say where the limit is of what's allowed. Citing a single sentence in a public posting is most likely fine, citing an entire paragraph is probably fine, too, but an entire chapter would probably be pushing it too far. And when in doubt a judge must decide how far you can go before infringing copyright. There are good arguments to be made that just buying a book doesn't grant the right to train commercial AI models with it.
If pre-orders ever made sense, it was when you still needed a physical cartridge or disc and the game wouldn't get patches anyways. But those days are long gone.
Yeah, if your knees are fucked up at 30, you're probably an athlete and injured your knees multiple times, or obese and overloaded them with too much weight.
That's also part of the reason why IQ scores are deeply flawed. Using a single number to measure intelligence implies there is an absolute order.
Fun fact: Richard Feynman, one of the greatest physicist of the 20th century and legendary physics educator (author of the Feynman Lectures), was invited to join Mensa after he won the Nobel Prize in physics. He declined however, because he didn't meet the IQ score of 130 normally required by Mensa.
In terms of memory usage it's a waste. But in terms of performance you're absolutely correct. It's generally far more efficient to check is a word is 0 than to check if a single bit is zero.
Your theory doesn't really hold up, because with that explanation you'd expect an abundance of trans woman in many other traditionally male dominated fields as well.
The more likely explanation is that both being trans and being heavily invested in Linux to the point you visit conferences correlate to being neurodivergent.
That said the other part is true: there are probably many women who's talent and interest in STEM was never properly nurtured. From my personal experience in the field I can say that my female colleagues are just as competent as my good male colleagues, but I'm yet to encounter a grossly incompetent female colleague. My theory is that woman need higher dedication and talent to overcome the adversary that unfortunately still exists, resulting in a higher skill floor.
No, I'm not suffering the consequences I'm fearing now. Having 80% capacity is enough to last me through the day, what I'm fearing is when the capacity drops below 60%, 50% or even less which I can greatly delay by only charging to 80%.
Additionally, I'm not forever stuck at 80%. If I know I will need more capacity, I can always disable the restriction for the next charge.
My experience is that the programmers from the first row very much still exist. My theory is that the number of programmers from the first row stayed the about same or even increased slightly. There are so many more so called "programmers" overall now, however, that in relation the first row programmers are much rarer now. And to be fair, you don't need a programmer capable of programming entire games in assembly to center a div.
Only a matter of time until he declares himself Holy Roman Emperor. And silly me was under the impression, he's trying to emulate an entirely different era of German history.
But that's kind of the point of the Turing test: a true AI with human level intelligence distinguishes itself by not being susceptible to probing or tricking it
The limit was 140 characters which is also the reason why twitter originally had a 140 character limit: you were able to tweet by SMS
