> the proportion of all 2n-bit values that can be generated by the product of two n-bit values goes to zero as n becomes large. This means that if you have, say, 10000000-bit integers multiplying 10000000-bit integers, you’d expect relatively few 100000000000000-bit integers to be produced.
That should be "relatively few 20000000-bit integers", right?
At least in the UK, the main high-street retailers will only stock goods from reputable brands with a (relatively) decent track record and safety standards. I don't believe there is any intersection between products sold on Temu and e.g. Argos, John Lewis.
> there are testimonies of smart home devices like anti-theft alarms or automatic doors, that stop working whenever [...] because their backends rely on Cloudflare.
The fault here lies 100% with horribly designed IoT devices that turn into bricks when they lose internet connection.
The comment probably refers to data races over memory access, which are prevented by usage of `Send` and `Sync` traits, rather than more general race conditions.
Or you can adblock and donate on Patreon etc. to your favourite channels. Not every channel you watch will benefit, but a much higher percentage of your money goes to creators, who generally get a less than fair deal from platform holders. Same goes for buying music on Bandcamp + pirating, versus a music streaming subscription.
Measuring GDP adjusted by purchasing power parity, but not per capita, seems like an odd metric.
PPP-adjusted GDP per-capita gives an indication of the level of goods/services affordable by an individual citizen. Total GDP, unadjusted, is an indicator of a country's economic power. What does PPP-adjusted total GDP indicate?
As always, remember to consider humidity when compararing locations - it can make both cold and hot weather feel much harsher. I'm more comfortable in 40c at low humidity than 25c at 90%. The UK experiences much more of the latter.
Could "energy density" not refer to energy-per-volume rather than mass? Then that headline might make sense per this quote from someone at Honda: "Simply, the energy density would be doubled. So same energy, same volume base, kind of half [the weight]"
Although the author himself confuses the matter, suggesting volume is also reduced: "If Honda's solid-state batteries truly do cut weight and size in half without reducing performance, there could be quite a bit more space in the floor of future Honda vehicles."
> The PlayStation 2, meanwhile, had the original PlayStation chipset built in, so it ran pretty much any PSone title – and when that chip wasn't being used for backwards compatibility it doubled as an input/output processor, which was pretty canny.
A small but passionate minority - given framework's modularity, it's not inconceivable that someone else will manufacture and sell a small batch of compatible keyboards and touchpads with buttons.
vscode is the best-case scenario for Electron in my experience; this suggests that you need good diligence to ensure reasonable performance with the framework. Even then, performance is only acceptable, not exceptional.
Sublime Text is a great example of what performance can be like with a different toolkit. Compare it to vscode - even on a fast machine - and you'll start to notice all the little lags that can creep in.
That should be "relatively few 20000000-bit integers", right?
