  • I'm building a price to performance PC part recommendation website and could use some feedback.

  • In my testing, the difference between 6000mhz and 6400mhz is about two percent in fps, but with currently a 15% price difference. Currently the price difference between CL 30 and 36 6000mhz memory is about 11%, with probably a similar 1ish percent difference in actual performance.

    Currently by the p2p metric the 6000mhz CL36 memory is the best deal today, but obviously that will move around depending on pricing.

  • Oh, I already have the scrapers up and running. I should be able to update prices at least every 24 hours at launch and I am exploring a webhook based system for adhoc updates for flash sales and things like that.

    I definitely utilized pc part picker for each of my past builds, and see them as the shoulders I'd be standing on. The big advantage that I'm hoping to bring that they've dabbled a bit in but not really seized on is the integration of the relative performance metrics. Beyond that, having more of a one stop view, such that you don't have to go hunting for each part in a category. One is suggested, which you can swap out if you want something more powerful or less expensive which should be a little less overwhelming for new folks than the volume of options available on pc part picker.

  • The Pebble Has Been Brought Back

    Jump

  • I still can't believe that no one else has made a smart watch with physical buttons and low energy use that has surpassed the pebble after all this time. I'm still cautious that this venture will pan out, but honestly there really hasn't been a smart watch released that matches my use case. Sleep tracking makes no sense if I have to charge the watch daily, as I'd probably charge it over night. Media control with screen buttons is awful. Fossil came close with their hybrid smart watch, but the layout of the media controls made no sense and couldn't easily be used without looking at the watch. Just let me check my calendar and texts and skip through ads in podcasts, and last over a week of battery and you will have my money.

  • Why hasn't a renewable energy blockchain REALLY been successful yet?

  • You are massively glossing over the energy cost of running any block chain in comparison to traditional database solutions, driving the majority of ASICs to be warehoused in locations with hyper subsidized coal power. The block chain is a solution with awful externalities in search of a problem that's mostly solved.
