Starting to smell a lot like a Friday deployment. 😅

I must have missed an announcement 'cause I seem to recall ARM revoking Qualcomm's license to the chip IP.

I was trying to guess the intersection without reading the rest of the post, but the Circle K threw me.

That got me wondering if there were OLED upgrade kits available.

Also if like me you still have cookware stamps from the previous promo, there MAY still be limited stock in certain stores, according to this sign I saw today. I didn't have much luck at my local Superstore, but there are other participating stores you may have luck at.

I imagine you've worked with techy folks in gamedev that ranted about pipelining. On consoles, we can know exactly when we can access data before the CPU has to stall (wait) until caches are filled. On PC, there's often too much variety in CPUs, so we generalize (lazy). Dual channel is a lazy fix. 😋

My desire for a 2nd RAM slot is for performance though. A computer running in "dual channel" mode is able to fetch 2x the amount of data per clock cycle. That doesn't necessarily double performance, but having access to double the data means your CPU will fail "cache misses" less often.

lol, I missed this. I regularly run virtual machines and Docker... Also multiple web browsers and Electron apps at the same time (Firefox, Chromium, VSCode, etc). Anything based on JavaScript tends to be memory hungry. 🤤🖥️
That said, 32GB is likely enough. I can just close something if I'm lagging.

I'm genuinely enjoying this pseudo (?) competition between Chinese test gear manufacturers Zoyi and Fnirsi, both companies creating similar products (likely based on the same guts). Like I have the single channel version of the Zoyi handheld oscilloscope. 💜
If I grab a dual, I'd try Fnirsi. ☺️ #DIY

I had to head out again, but yes, it works. Reading the schema is a bit weird, as both JSON Schema and Lexicon Schema use most of the same terms. 😅
I was able to get all the types validating except for records and the function types. I'm not thrilled with the errors it generates though. #atdev

Now on a quick tangent to see if Lexicon can be described using JSON Schema. #atdev
json-schema.org

Nope! JSON-LD does not make a good intermediate format. #atproto

Toying with a Lexicon syntax for accessing the member types of another Lexicon user type, plus a variant for accessing member types from a record. 🤔 #atproto #atdev

No, I was simply exposing Bluesky PDS users to the Fediverse. This project began as a mere "ActivityPub Outbox", a way to cross post to both networks, with a big question mark on how to handle likes and followers. Seems obvious in hindsight. 😅
