    Everyone likes to complain about the lack of repairability in MacBook Pros, but there is an undeniable silver lining. (Result of a keyboard replacement, pictured).

    A good reminder to treat people with respect- it can only help promote an open mind. Never say “I told you so”. There are a lot of die-hards out there just looking for an excuse to double-down after this week’s events. Give them a pathway out of this madness.

    Glorifying people with engineering degrees (vs regular athletes) is something we can’t have enough of in sport. Let’s see more content like this, (with even more strategists/engineers).

    When my grandfather asks for my help, this is usually the type of thing that he hands me (this is normal, right?).

    Peter Strzok, who's spent a life in public service, may be imperfect—as we all are—but next to Trump and his stooges in Congress he's a veritable superhero. I offer my thanks to Agent Strzok for weathering the attempted assassination of his character by the GOP. RT if you do too.

    It obviously can't reach top speeds at , but it's great to see the final design in motion- it looks awesome. is such a fascinating concept. Teams will, for the first time ever, be building a *driver* instead of a car.

    Finally. Can’t wait to try the third-gen keyboard. Would have loved a physical ESC key though :/

    Wife and I disagreed on which direction to go in . Most practical need for a 4K TV I’ve seen in a while.

    The way Musk has been treated over this has been mildly infuriating. The guy dropped what he was doing and showed up. In Thailand. Leave it there.

    Just returned from Cave 3. Mini-sub is ready if needed. It is made of rocket parts & named Wild Boar after kids’ soccer team. Leaving here in case it may be useful in the future. Thailand is so beautiful.

    I have this monitor on my desk at work. It was incredible even before this sale. Amazed at how much these prices have dropped.

    Excellent example of how a company culture should work in the event of a mistake: 1. Hold your hand up and take ownership for it. 2. Do everything you can to learn from it. So many lessons in business/engineering can be learned just from watching

    This particular moment was equally tough to watch but also an impressive example of 's culture.

    This 2018 Austrian track is probably the most brutal engineering challenge we’ve seen in in a while. So many fascinating mechanical failure conditions in this .

    Such an interesting idea. It seems to indicate that there is a pattern. Since I work so hard to prevent uninitialized memory accesses, I rarely think about what factors into their powered-up state (I assume this is DRAM vs a forced hit in a SRAM cache).

    RGP 1.2 shows driver barriers (including explanation). Awesome feature. Instantly realized that timing queries take 5% of my frame time in development builds (two barriers each, both full L2$ flush). Without timing queries 2% of frame spend waiting in barriers. Much better :)
