Note that this was an exaggeration of my experience with LaTeX, it’s not like I use these commands everywhere. I think its better to let LaTeX do its job. Nevertheless, looseness=-1 can help to cram a few words in a new line into the previous paragraph, which subjectively looks better sometimes and frees up some space. Negative vspace around figures or tables can also be used to make more space for text and avoid unwanted page breaks. Manual linebreaks can come in handy if you switch TeX engines (e.g. pdfTeX -> LuaTeX) and somehow things don’t look like they are supposed to look. You can do it right or you can add manual linebreaks here and there to get the same results.

LaTeX and the wonderful world of \looseness=-1, manual linebreaks and negative vspace

(but it’s still leagues ahead of word)

Probably end of the gold standard

The generations from 2002 and 2003 were my favorites

Imagine the single USB C port being 40Gbit/s or even 80Gbit/s (USB 4 Version 2). Given a nice docking station and some additional enclosures, you could technically even connect hard drives and run the phone as a low-power NAS. Or/and as a multimedia station for your 4K TV, I mean the integrated GPUs are usually more than capable enough.

A bummer that they stick to USB 2 speeds, even for most high end phones.

The funny thing is that the vast majority of NVIDIA GPUs are probably used in Linux-based systems because of the MLAI hype.

Thank you for the positivity, kind internet stranger.

Wow, I didn’t know that the windows in my apartment could do this. Fascinating

Haskell is nice. This code style… not so much

Ah yes, blue video mood

It is certainly not full any longer

Breaking: turing-complete system can simulate any turing machine

It would be so funny if washing machines were the first to become sentient

Not blue enough

I agree when it comes to average usage, but having >=1Gbps headroom for bursty traffic, e.g., when moving files locally between devices, is awesome.

Smartphones are already insanely energy efficient. But instead of tuning them for longer battery life, companies kept pushing for faster processing, higher resolutions and refresh rates in the last few years. Now there’s diminishing returns (imo 4k on a 6" device is just absurd) so I expect future devices to double down on energy efficiency. But then maybe companies just end up decreasing the battery’s capacity for lower weight…

Aren’t notification LEDs somewhat obsolete now that we have always on displays? One advantage could be that they are less power hungry than keeping the screen / touch panel alive all the time. But in theory one could just create a permanent “notification LED” with an always on display, then it’s the same thing from a user’s perspective.

Oh boy I had one of those

We are one… nemeses!
