As far as I know Tears of the Kingdom is capped at 30 fps and 900p on Switch 1 in docked mode. This update gets you this Switch 1 docked mode experience on handheld, so it should not get you 60 fps or any of the other improvements of the switch 2 upgrade pack.
I’ve had some products that use ChoViva (fake chocolate made from sunflower seeds and oats) and they were ok. On the other hand my only memory of Hershey’s chocolate is just pain, even 30 years ago (last time I was in the US). So maybe it’s not replacing cocoa as such that’s the problem.
Dynamic swap and zswap aren’t really the same as efficient ram usage it’s just good ways to mitigate when you run out.
I disagree. If the OS automatically identifies unneeded pages and compresses them or swaps them out, it’s certainly using the physical memory more efficiently than if it wasn’t doing these things.
avoiding multiple versions of the same library is what distros exist for
But they can’t if the applications they want to ship don’t all use the same version. E.g. Ubuntu ships GTK 2, 3, and 4. Arch even still ships GTK 1 in addition to these three.
avoiding loading different frameworks is what Desktop Environments are for
What happens is you run KDE but then you still want to run Firefox so you still need GTK.
There are some advantages macOS can have but it depends on usage patterns and user knowledge:
every 60 seconds, a minute passes
The last time a minute did not pass after 60 seconds was only in 2016 though, less than ten years ago
I mean if they came with a cool android body we could talk about it. It should at least be able to do cleaning and cooking. Otherwise my wife won’t like it.
To be fair humans do that too
I think the open slop situation is also in part people who just want a feature and genuinely think they’re helping. People who can’t do the task themselves also can’t tell that the LLM also can’t do it.
But a lot of them are probably just padding their GitHub account too. Any given popular project has tons of forks by people who just want to have lots of repositories on their GitHub but don’t actually make changes because they can’t actually do it. I used to maintain my employer’s projects on GitHub and literally we’d have something like 3000 forks and 2990 of them would just be forks with no changes by people with lots of repositories but no actual work. Now these people are using LLMs to also make changes…
Here, those are called “Not MLK”. I didn’t realize they translated it for some countries.
I basically do option 2, but I’d never mount all my configuration. If I want an isolated environment, I’m not making all my ssh keys available to it. So some things have to stay outside for me.
Emacs :)
Ok joking aside there were these things: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisp_machine
There also are modern examples but they tend to be for specific niches like Mirage.
The article already notes that
privacy-focused users who don’t want “AI” in their search are more likely to use DuckDuckGo
But the opposite is also true. Maybe it’s not 90% to 10% elsewhere, but I’d expect the same general imbalance because some people who would answer yes to ai in a survey on a search web site don’t go to search web sites in the first place. They go to ChatGPT or whatever.
What do you mean by “change standards”? Python is older than all the other languages you mentioned other than C.
You don’t have to be the first person. I joined a startup a long time ago as a regular engineer and they made me team lead within a year. Startups generally move a bit faster and a lot more chaotically. Especially when they’re growing fast. You do have to be good but having a vision also helps.
I stuck with them through acquisitions etc. and everything slowed down a lot. Should have gotten out of the large corporation life earlier tbh.
The bubble thing is more the financial aspect. None of these AI companies are profitable and they also don’t have a clear path to profit. For some time the business plan of Open AI was literally develop advanced AI and then let the AI figure out how to make money. Yet, these companies attract huge amounts of investment and are responsible for basically all of the economic growth in the US.
Nobody thinks there are no uses at all for LLMs or image generation etc. or that people in general hate all AI. It’s a bubble because a lot of money is being invested in something that nobody managed to make profitable yet, so if the investment stops, then these companies will all implode.
I don’t have ai psychosis myself but man did Claude Code make it easy to see how people could develop it. I guess it makes sense too considering humans thought ELIZA was intelligent. My employer does some AI stuff and I think it just took me a while to understand how these LLMs appear to people outside that sphere.
Even that is just confusing. I sometimes use Perplexity (because Pro comes with my bank account - neobanks have zero focus). And by default it remembers things you say. So when I ask a question sometimes it will randomly decide to bring in something else I asked about before. E.g. I sometimes use it to look up programming related stuff, and then when I ask something else it will randomly research whatever language it thinks I like now in that context too and do things like suggest an anime based on my recent interest in Rust for no good reason.
Tbh I think the Sun Ray thin terminals were pretty cool at the time. Not really cloud because it was an enterprise product 20 years ago, so they used servers hosted by the enterprise. But at the time this idea of taking my entire desktop session with me via my employee badge felt pretty cool. Of course only supporting X11 sessions on Solaris meant that nobody outside Sun wanted it though but that’s not really a problem with the concept as such.
In October 2025, so much later.
Yes and no… you’re basically saying that with support from China and Russia, they got to a point where they can build WW2 tech invented more than 80 years ago using pen and paper. There’s definitely newer tech that they can’t build (e.g. computers are imported).
