Probably as a learning exercise so they know what developing and shipping for that platform is like.
Given they’re currently building a similar product, makes sense to see what the competition is up to

Gonna point out this post is from over a decade ago
Things were still pretty bad back then, but people did still typically move out of their parents’ place at that point


No idea on the loss side of things tbh, though given it’s AI based, I’m assuming it can’t be truly lossless


to use a toy example […] for simple maths
I know, I just picked easy numbers for the sake of discussion. The actual data rate is not important to this particular discussion.


Honestly I don’t know why, but submerging a big machine just makes it look 10x cooler (in a figurative sense, in addition to literal)
I don’t make the rules


I just grip the box closed after I’ve pulled what I need and yank it free
I think it’s usually the bottom side of the opening with the serration, so probably that side


You’ve gotta look at the magnitude of difference here, to use a toy example:
Let’s use a memory data rate of 1GB/s for simple maths
8GB of uncompressed textures getting moved would take us about 8 seconds
The compressed stuff at <1GB is going to be done in less than 1 second.
As long as the decompression process doesn’t take another 7 seconds to complete it’s going to be more performant
Edit: typo
Well I’ve got no idea who that is, but if so it kinda doesn’t really change the point even if the motivation is potentially a bit suspect
People should be free to wear clothing that doesn’t break any laws without getting even a modicum of grief from pearl clutchers, particularly when those people spend their energy on that rather than more real problems.
A broken clock can be right twice twice a day and all that


Damn, that’s kinda a holy grail of game storefronts
Why would it be good for people to moralise over someone’s choice of clothing?
It’s kinda an obviously shitty thing for someone to think their views on how to dress are so universally correct to the point of needing enforcement


this is prob the smallest our AI bill will be
lol. lmao even.


That’s 12 fairly decent engineers’ salary
Is AI really 4x-ing productivity at his company? Even the optimistic estimates don’t even have it as a 2x improvement
It’s baffling to me that people who’s entire career hinges on them displaying a level of extreme competence, just tell on themselves like this.


Ahhh right, that was the bit I was missing! Thanks


No I mean who do they think is just called “Hungarian” unless I missed something


[Viktor] Orbán […] is facing his most serious challenge in years from Péter Magyar
Who?
UK/EU has had contactless payments via our bank cards for about 2 decades now. America caught up eventually some years later
When phones got the ability to act as our bank cards, it made sense for them to use something compatible with the same technology that was already deployed
Funnily enough, America (and I guess also Korea, given the companies) dragging their heels on standard contactless is one of the main reasons why Samsung/LG briefly put out a couple of generations of phones that had a magnetic stripe mimicking payment feature in addition to standard NFC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_secure_transmission)
