This isn't a benchmark of those systems, it's showing that the code didn't regress on either hardware set with some anecdotal data. It makes sense they're not like for like.

I read "The Idea Factory" about Bell Labs, focused mostly on inventing the transistor, but it included their consolidation into this lab and just how state of the art it was. The book implied that it was the first corporate "campus" designed more like a university than a factory or office.
The book really made me understand that AT&T / Bell Labs was the hot tech firm of the early 20th century, long before getting to computing advances (C, UNIX) I was more familiar with.
Hello fellow ex-IBMer. I came to the corp from an open source background and I was happy that my LTC coworkers seemed to despise software parents despite the huge pressure from management.
I wonder how much of this is that IBM fell out of the patent lead and decided to just take their ball and go home. Or how much is RedHat influence shifting the mindset away from the patent Mexican standoff with everyone else.
I used (u)xterm for like 20 years before discovering that Konsole is solid and beautiful. My whole tiling setup is backed up with KDE apps now.
I didn't mind the pie chart, the slices are labeled clearly, no need to use coloring like you have to read a legend.
Yeah, you're totally right. I've leaned into the "rather chill than sweat" gaming camp in the last few years. It's nice to play games that are friendly and non-violent. SDV and Talos Principle 2 have been my gotos recently.
Nah, my friends don't actually care, this is tongue in cheek for all the times I'm playing SDV and they're all masochistically playing From Soft games. That's why I said "imaginary" judgement.
Everybody up in here talking about porn games... I just want to be able to hide Stardew Valley so I can avoid the imaginary judgment of my friends playing much harder or competitive games.
Yeah, I don't really see much of an issue here. If you get a defective chip back, it's probably a good data point to know if it was "abused". Even if it's just so you can ask more questions, or prioritize problems that show up on non-OC'd chips rather than flat rejecting an RMA.
For music I'm just sick of the apps streaming super compressed crap. It sounds like 192kbps MP3 sometimes and you can definitely tell the difference. Setup Airsonic and never looked back, although still have YT music for the fam and finding new music. It is a bit of hassle, but it's worth it and a FLAC collection feels way smaller than it did 10-20 years ago (both in terms of disk and home streaming bandwidth).
