  • I've never had this problem anywhere I live (Sweden and Japan) so I'm assuming it has to do with some kind of especially cheap fixtures?

  • Same here. Some of the things that have helped make our situation easier:

    1. Where we live, by law my wife got a year per kid off of work for childcare. I don't know how people do this without a full-time parent.
    2. Since I work remotely, if my wife had a rough night, she could sleep during the day without worrying the kid was going to kill themselves because I would be around.
    3. Our kids were definitely on the easier side, especially our first. They almost never cried for zero reason (90% of crying was quickly remediated with the "diapers, hungry, sleepy" checklist), they quickly started sleeping well, etc. Some people have complete devil kids, colic, etc.

    What we gave up was doing things together as a couple (romantic dinners etc), as we always had to either bring the kids or stay home with them, but we could still do things on our own when we wanted to. We have family nearby, but they deemed themselves "too old" to look over the kids when they were still babies. Now that our kids are in elementary school age they've been able to sleep over once or twice a year when we get to do a parents getaway for our anniversary etc.

  • In the EU, as long as it's under 800W it can be plugged directly into an outlet in your home without any kind of installation, back-feeding the grid that way.

    You're not getting paid anything for the power you send back into the grid so anything you don't use you lose.

  • And that's probably what will kill them as payouts get worse and worse making other platforms more attractive as you're not losing as much. A lot of YouTubers I follow seem to becoming more and more reliant on Patreon as ad revenue goes down.

  • The lack of alternatives where creators actually get paid for people watching their videos is the biggest problem.

  • I have a cheap noname chinese switch with 2x10gbit ports and 4x2.5 Gbps ports, so I have the 10 Gbit ports to the internet and my computer, and use a 2.5 gbps port for my NAS, everything else is 1 gbit

  • This is why I'm still using a Synology ¯(ツ)

    I can install all the fun stuff I want in Docker, but for the core OS services, it's outsourced to Synology to maintain for me

  • (or even Ethernet)

    Technically, those 100+ Gbps fiber LAN/WAN connections used in data centers are also Ethernet, just not twisted pair.

    That said recently I was in a retail store and saw "Cat8" cables for sale that advertised support for 40 Gbps copper ethernet! I wonder if any hardware to support that will ever be released. It is a real standard, approved way back in 2016: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/100_Gigabit_Ethernet#40GBASE-T

  • I have symmetrical 10 Gbps at home ($30/mo) and I'll agree. When it's nice when you have big updates, for most households 1 Gbps is going to be just fine. As you say, the vast majority of users are bottlenecked by Wi-Fi.

    The bigger crime are all the asymmetrical connections that people on technologies like Cable TV networks have, where you get 1-2 Gbps down but only something tiny like 50 Mbps up. This results in crappy video calls, makes off-site/remote backups unfeasible, means you can't host anything at home, etc.

  • They're probably not building out 50 Gbps to the rice farmers

  • Most residential fiber globally currently is GPON with a 1-2 Gbps shared line using passive optical splitters, split up to 32 ways. Raising that shared line to 50 Gbps is a great upgrade.

  • I guess technically, yes

  • It's for running AI on the GPU. You need a really expensive PC GPU to get more than like 16 GB of RAM or whatever, so the bottleneck for large AI models is swapping in and out data from system RAM over PCIe.

    The Mac has an SoE with unified memory, where the GPU can access all 192 GB at full speed, which is perfect for AI workloads where you need the GPU to access all the RAM. There's always a tradeoff where the PC GPUs have faster processors (since they have a way bigger power budget), but the Mac GPU has faster memory access, so it's not always a slam-dunk which is better.

    APUs/Integrated GPUs on PCs also have unified memory but they always targeted the low end so aren't as useful.

  • APFS still supports resource forks just fine - I can unstuff a 1990's Mac application in Sequoia on a Apple Silicon Mac, copy it to my Synology NAS over SMB, and then access that NAS from a MacOS 9 Mac using AFP and it launches just fine.

    The Finder just doesn't use most of it so that it gets preserved in file copies and zip files and such.

  • He's explicitly said he wants to make "X" the China-WeChat-style "super app" of the west that you need to have installed to do anything and everything, and that includes payments https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super-app

  • This is so Elon Musk can send out "morale boost" emails about working very hardcore.

  • The old internet, where the worst crime you could do was hot-link an image, and the worst punishment there was was having it replaced with goatse

  • Trump can't change the law, he can only pinky swear that he won't enforce it.

    Would you trust Trump's promise to the tune of $5000/download fines?

  • They weren't even planning to create a fork.

    Basically Matt interpreted their "we're going to take over work within Wordpress since Matt abandoned it" as "we're taking over Wordpress from Matt" and is telling them through some tortured rhetoric "you aren't Wordpress, I'm Wordpress, you go do it in a fork instead"
