Leaded gasoline is estimated to have killed over 100,000,000 people, reduced the collective IQ of the entire planet and permanently polluted most waterways over the course of 50-60 years, all based on lies by General Motors and some others.

The demonization of cholesterol has lead to the sickest generation in human history with the highest rates of diabetes ever recorded and a massive increase of heart disease, cancer, stroke, despite claiming to reverse these conditions. We're then told its genetic to cover the lie, as if our genes somehow changed so significantly over the last 40 years that the rates of these diseases increased orders of magnitude. We now have the lowest levels of cholesterol in human history and the highest rates of disease, yet they continue to lie.

There are analogs to this. This is not new to humanity. It's just the tip of the iceberg.

Because TypeScript is just JavaScript once the types are stripped out... and JavaScript has the superpower of running on the largest platform in the world: the web browser.

WebAssembly cannot directly access the browser DOM, cannot directly handle network requests, and requires JavaScript to act as a bridge for almost all web interactions

I'm not going to run it but people have said the kernel handles realtime needs much better than 10.

That's the thing, there are a bunch of legitimate improvements to Windows 11. They're just all very obscure, hard to explain things hidden away in the kernel that most users will either never encounter or never even notice.

The things they will notice are the far worse task bar, the randomly missing features that were removed for no apparent reason, the higher hardware requirements, the constant nagging to use new Windows features, the existing features that have been randomly changed for no readily apparent reason, and the new features that are too buggy to use, like HDR support or dynamic refresh rates.

Comment Nothing + Claude (Score 2) 35

Notion is really only valuable as a memory/brain for Claude these days. It actually excels at that when used properly. I was also annoyed by their gmail/calendar inetgration though. It really wanted to take over the inbox and tag things how it wanted. I just didn't understand the point of it.

Micron started a new fab at their HQ in 2024 and it's barely halfway built. They have another one going up somewhere on the east coast also. They take years to build and many billions of dollars. They don't go up over night.

I worked at Micron for almost 9 years and have seen the fabs being built. Its not small feat.
