It feels pedantic to point it out, but it’s actually 113x faster.

Seeing the author present their results like this give off the impression that they’re biased, which I am sure they aren’t.

I wonder why glm is viewed so positively.

Every time I try to build something with it, the output is worse than other models I use (Gemini, Claude), it takes longer to reach an answer and plenty of times it gets stuck in a loop.

They are produced by companies that specialise in producing ICs.

They can be placed manually or automated.

That’s users, for ya! They will always find ways to use your product that you didn’t intend to or even knew about!

I had to do this with my MacBook Pro models early 2015 and late 2017.

It seems like there was a period in time when solder just wasn’t done well, it seems like.

Bringing kintsugi into this conversation is like saying “being underwater can be quite advantageous!” and linking a video on fish, when the main topic is about people drowning in the ocean.

There seems to be a webgl render engine suitable for vega [0]. Have you tried and if so, what was your experience?

Yet it is. I don’t see myself or anyone in my family effortlessly choosing and setting up a Linux distro without outside help.

Windows on the other hand is easy to install and set up. I’d argue most people in my family can do this and I’m the only one that is technically inclined.

I have, actually. It was a several-click process with few to no headaches (I don’t recall any in the last several installs I did).

The opening paragraph gives the reason why Linux is still not at the same level as windows:

“ A few months and several headaches later…”

Additionally, the first comment I read is very positive, yet it also gives insight into the same situation.

Thanks for correcting me. Can you point me to what I need to search for to understand the differences?
