We’ve had more than enough performance for 99% of our applications for over a decade.
But when hardware gets faster, developers get lazier and software gets slower.

My old iPhone 4 ran great on iOS 5, but after updating to iOS 7, it couldn’t even show the keyboard without stuttering.

Meh….
It was good for making development easier for indie developers, and the graphic fidelity was nice, but it didn’t really open many new gameplay possibilities.

Whatever law it’s breaking seems like a shitty law that shouldn’t exist.

Let the bodies hit the floor

I have no doubt they’ll try and frame it as a controversial issue and not something that everyone wants.
“The government wants to make it free to cut our dicks off! Think of the kids! We must stop this woke agenda!”

But nobody has anything to lose from free healthcare. It’s been proven to work in many first world countries, so what’s the delay?

This isn’t a left vs right issue, its a human vs corruption issue. We are the 99%

Australia wasn’t even invited

10 years ago was 2014, not 2004.

The samsung galaxy s5 was released at the start of 2014 with a capacitive 1080p amoled touchscreen, a quad core snapdragon 801 processor, 21h of ‘talk time’ battery, wireless charging, a fingerprint sensor, NFC, dual band 802.11ac wifi support, and emmc 5.0 storage (250 MB/s sequential read).

New cars were mandated to have ESC in the US and the EU by 2014.

There have definitely been many innovations since 2014, but most consumer technology upgrades have been iterative rather than innovative.

Yep, as written in the manuscript:
“Stallman’s Sluts and Torvalds’ Thots,
shall all receive some thigh-high socks.”

Because the format command won’t know what the ‘enter’ argument means ;)

I’m intrigued…

Probably because it’s only four bytes of data, and counting/extracting bits takes more cpu time than one AND operation.
Most CPU’s are optimised to work with whole integers (32/64 bit) rather than individual bits.

If memory was a serious concern you could compress it down to one byte as a ‘number of 1s’ counter at the cost of additional cpu operations, but because 3 extra bytes is such a small amount of data, this memory/time trade off isn’t worth it in most systems.

It’d be useful if you wanted to compress some data logs or something with many subnet masks though.

We would if we could afford to

Oh, I get you.
Sorry, I’m not American, so I’ve never heard people call them that.
Where I live, ‘truck’ is exclusively used for the vehicles used with logistics or heavy machinery.

Totally understand what you mean now, and yeah fuck those guys lol.

Who uses a truck for that?
Edit: I guess truck drivers who don’t own a car might, but surely that’s less than 1% of the road users?

I feel like I’m out of the loop on this one.
You don’t consider delivery/logistics to be working, and you expect supermarkets to receive their stock from a fleet of cars/vans?
And you don’t need a different license to drive trucks where you live?

Oops

Oops

This could really do with an explanation for wtf ‘pandas’ is, and why this is relevant.

👍

I’m not going to waste any more time arguing against your assumptions, false claims and flawed reasoning, when it’s clear you have no interest in thinking critically about the matter.

Congrats, you win 👍
