This is literally a huge pile of batteries that can charge at any rate at any time. It can soak the noon peak of solar, it can sip late night wind.

This is how security works in the C programming language.

I buy everything I can on GoG due to lack of DRM. If something is not on GoG, I buy from Epic simply because they pay a bigger share to developers than Steam. When I buy a game I want that money go to the devs, not middlemen.

GoG also integrates well with Epic, so I can have all my games there.

It's a great game. Very good story. The game is mostly serious noir detective story, except that roaring Zootopia setting.

Severe performance issue on day one is most likely a bug, some incompatibility, or debug code accidentally left in.

I don’t know why people interpret it as if the game will never be playable and behave as if it was some master plan to make 4090 look slow.

I like to say I don’t have a pile of unfinished projects and half-abandoned hobbies. I’m just working in the style of the great Leonardo.

Rust Evangelism Strike Force drops in:

Imagine living your life without maintaining header files.

Happy to see Rust’s standard library near the top in performance. It’s nice to have a good implementation out of the box.

It’s also (obviously) a problem limited to North America.

Everywhere else Teslas and Superchargers use a CCS2 connector.

In Europe, non-Tesla charging networks together are bigger than the Supercharger network, and Ionity and Fastned have 300kW chargers that are significantly faster for Hyundai/Kia/Genesis than Superchargers.

This has always been the case. When Windows XP came out people hated it needed 64MB (not GB) of RAM, because that was more than the entire disk installation of Windows 95, which was also bloated compared to older Macs and Amigas.

There’s aarch64 version of Linux.

I’ve got an ARM Mac. I’ve got ARM VPSes from Hetzner, and I’m compiling native code for the server.

It’s definitely easier to develop, build, and test on the same architecture, than to deal with cross-compilation and emulation.

So I think Linus is right.
