I took an M2 Air with me to Europe back in June, but I constantly worried about the risc of evaporation.
It was thin, light and needed to be kept in an Air-tight case.

Now I got this showing up
https://www.makeuseof.com/node-js-streams-introduction/
A stream is a fundamental programming tool that deals with the flow of data. At its core, a stream typically represents the sequential transfer of bytes from one point to another. Node.js’ official documentation defines a stream as an abstract interface that you can use to work with data.
Transferring data on a computer or across a network is an ideal use of a stream.
Streams in Node.js
Streams have played an essential role in the success of Node.js. They are ideal for real-time data processing and event-driven applications, two prominent features of the Node.js runtime environment. -
@Gators1 I’m just as pissed off because it showing up on my Google news.

I have a conference tomorrow next to the White House. I can pop over to the WH afterward and tell Joe to ban that shit and anything else you want me to convey to him?
Tell him to up his Geritol dosage!
"laissez les bons temps rouler!"

@Gators1 Drop by today since he’s meeting with the Aussie PM and tell him Hog says hello
GTFO

Why would the Austrian PM care about a Cambodian? They are halfway around the world apart.

Qualcomm’s latest CPU for PCs beats Apple’s M1 and catches up with M2
Apple has been doing a great job with its Apple Silicon “M” chips for computers, as they deliver more performance...
Awesome. Looks like we’re going to start getting laptops with M1 / eventually M2+ performance and efficiency (battery life) but aren’t locked into Apple’s ecosystem.
I hope Intel is seriously planning for a RISC future because x86 has no place in it IMO. Whether you’re an individual getting 50 to 100% better battery life in your laptop or a company saving a bunch of money in electricity costs, CISC doesn’t make much sense at any scale. But I could just be a RISC fanboy.
Ohhhhhh Hog.
People buy for software they want, not chips.

I didn’t understand any of this
It’s not for you, just buy what you are told to like a good sheep.

Isn’t Apple required for left wing street cred?

I’m waiting for Apple to upgrade MBP to M3 before I buy a new laptop.

Windows already runs on Arm and the apps will get there. Linux and most of its apps already cross compile to a half dozen architectures. Windows / apps targeting two is just new. I never tried it but when Apple switched from Intel they built in compatibility with the legacy apps using some kind of virtualization that was supposed to be excellent and fast.
When the apps run anywhere, you can bet some people will be looking to buy the windows laptop with 16 hours battery life versus the one with 8.
Microsoft starts offering advice in how to code for Arm
In 2027 a quarter of PCs won’t use x86, and Redmond wants its ecosystem ready

@Hog I had a comp with a RISC chip already in the late 90s!
-
Windows had that built in decades ago for their server software, when the hot young chip thing was DEC Alpha.

Most of my Unix friends learned their craft on SGI workstations cause they all worked for a Dallas packaging graphics firm which among other things had the Star Wars toy box contract.
Great machines. And I really liked the IRIX.

TELL ME WHAT TO BUY !
I am now looking at buying 60m of Petzl rad line in case you can find that cheap, I can recommend it.

I forgot that Macs also had PowerPC chips in the 90s before switching to Intel. PowerBook G4 was über. It was the fastest laptop on the planet and the battery lasted hours more than any x86 laptop at the time.
Ya been through all these RISC crazes, usually mismanaged into irrelevance.
