When I can’t sleep, I turn around and sleep “upside down” - moving my pillows to where my feet were beforehand, and my feet to where my head was beforehand - and I stick with that for a week or so. It gives me a week or so without insomnia and then wears off, so I have to turn myself back around for the next 7-12 day period.
Admittedly this could just be a me thing, but let’s put our faith in this method and let the power of placebo effect take hold. Boom, minor bouts of sleeplessness are cured.
What are your own examples of this?
Linux performance improvements are most noticeable on lower end hardware, at the higher end performance VS windows is usually pretty random from what I’ve seen.
That kind of makes intuitive sense, to me.
Early in the life of a piece of hardware, there’s lot of attention from individuals and companies.
Late in the life of a piece of hardware, only individuals still care about it.
Corporate OSes add changes over time to make old hardware worse off, while open OSes add fixes to support it.
Yeah, Linux generally supports older hardware for much longer, but it’s not only that. Linux devs are fairly attentive about performance, clean code, consistent frameworks, etc, meanwhile Microsoft is out there making random OS components in React just because it’s a little easier. From what I’ve heard the culture there is to not care about how something is done as long as it works.
