People totally got killed by doing their own maintenance
People have totally gotten killed from maintenance done by a “professional” (new kid on the job at the shop.)
I watch YouTuber CarCareNut and he’s shown many stupid mistakes made by dealerships.
I assure you I take greater care doing repairs than a tech who will get yelled at if they don’t finish the job fast.
Because I converted some backend processing services from nodejs to rust,
You converted only the functions you needed and only included the functions you needed. You did not convert the entire node.js codebase and then include the entire library. That’s the problem I’m describing. A few years ago I toyed with javascript to make a LCARS style wall home automation panel. The overhead of what other people had published was absurd. I did what you did. I took out only the functions I needed, rewrote them, and reduced my program from gigabytes to megabytes even though it was still all Javascript.
This isn’t Reddit. You don’t need to talk in absolutes.
I haven’t posted anything on reddit in years. There is no need to start off a post with insults.
re: garbage collection
I wrote java back in 1997 and the programs used a few megabytes. Garbage collection doesn’t in itself require significantly more ram because it only delays the freeing of ram that would have been allocated using a non garbage collection language. Syntatic sugar like iterators does not in general save gigabytes of ram.
The OP isn’t talking about 500k apps now requiring 1MB. The article talks about former 85K apps now taking GB’s of ram.
Writing in Rust or “an efficient language” does nothing for ram bloat. The problem is using 3rd party libraries and frameworks. For example a JavaScript interpreter uses around 400k. The JavaScript problem is developers importing a 1GB library to compare a string.
You’d have the same bloat if you wrote in assembly.
Funny how what is a black market underground economy in Russia because of the danger is “market research data” legally sold in the US.
I was intrigued by their open hardware claim but then saw the pi/Mali/rk3588 options all of which are more closed source (require binary blobs) than the x86 they eschew for being closed.
As soon as corporate contracts dry up they’ll go back to consumers but at a higher price point just like GPUs.
Or are you not going to buy ram ever again?
A few years ago I bought some used Lenovo Xeons on eBay. Xeon E-2276G, 2224G, 2174G.
The 2224G pulls 15 watts streaming 4k videos with Plex. They are available for under $500.
For desktop, any AMD mini PC like a Beelink will work well and many are under $500.
The incidents had nothing to do with divided highways. You can see the video is at residential streets.
It isn’t a unique Texas Law. It’s law everywhere in the US and Canada.
“mostly all in North America, require all surrounding vehicles to stop when a school bus is stopped with its red lights flashing.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/School_bus_traffic_stop_laws
“And the human drivers who move to Texas often get tripped up by this law, because many aren’t aware of the requirement.”
Only if you are from a different country.
Which is beside the point that if anyone else drove through 20 bus stops, they couldn’t use the excuse, “I’m from another country so I don’t know your laws.” to get out of jail.
That it’s a software fix is also beside the point. “Oh I drove illegally 20 times. I know better and won’t do it again.”
There was a news story two weeks ago about Waymo taxis in Texas driving through 20 bus stops over a few days.
The only response was, “company officials treat this very seriously and are working on a fix.”
It’s bizarre how if you drove through twenty bus stops in three days, you would not only lose your license but be in jail on multiple charges.
But if a corporation does it it is, “Oops, we will do better next time.”
Utterly insane.
No wonder Sovereign Citizens think they can get away with anything with the right paperwork.
Yeah and mass manufactured CD’s are physically stamped into aluminum and then covered in polycarbonate.
In 20 years some new type of degradation might be observed and people will say, “Oh yeah, we didn’t think of that.”
For example the etching could start micro fractures from repeated heating and cooling that happens over the long term.
Like Verbatim’s 100 year Azzo DVD media that failed in 10 years?
Or 1000 year CD’s that failed in 3 because a manufacturing defect that let moisture into the metal layer?
It saves screen space but uses on average the same memory. Variable names aren’t preserved by most compilers in the binaries so it doesn’t matter how long you name them.
But that leaves the utilities with alle the risk,
Not if you make the data center pay for it.
If a consumer wants a utility upgrade, the consumer pays all costs upfront. I know this because my neighbor works for the power company and was trying to get gas lines run to our neighborhood. The cost the power company would charge us was hundreds of thousands which even divided by the number of homes meant it would never pay off vs outlr existing cost for propane delivery.
The resources are finite whether the taxpayers pay for the construction or the corporation that needs the electric upgrade pays.
He did a comparison of products ending with a recommendation. That’s a review.
I don’t know why you can’t accept that.
You don’t watch all of his videos which is why you have the wrong idea. It’s the 2024 video where he reviewed Tru Tone.
If products are compared in detail and a suggestion to buy is given, it’s a review.
It doesn’t matter what you think the channel is supposed to be. What matters is the content.
At this point you are nitpicking and being pedantic to attempt to “win” an agurment not being had.
You wrote 3 paragraphs to avoid admitting that despite my writing about his detergent video, you responded with his dishwasher video because you haven’t watched all his content!
Comparing samples with an independent lab isn’t a review? Come on. As I already said just because most of his content is “talking head”, doesn’t mean he can’t recommend products. Which he clearly has done.
Windows Media center was an amazing money saver! I cancelled all my cable boxes, bought a server to run 8.1, bought some used xbox360’s for every TV in the house, and everything was paid for in 9 months compared to the cable company rental fees. So I not only got 3 xbox360s and a server for “free” but was saving money for the next 3 years until I cancelled cable completely.
Plus I had unlimited TV show storage and could transcode anything I wanted to keep permanently to mp4.
