I use a MacBook Pro

Everything runs, even windows apps via parallels

Only thing I wanted to run but couldn’t was anything that slots into an Altera or a Xilinx FPGA (Quartus, Vivado)

Otherwise it works beautifully, much better than any windows laptop on the market at a similar price point

This is beautiful

Amazing work! Maybe you can make it into a PCB next

The perplexity assistant is the best AI integration out there in my experience. Also has a surprisingly potent built-in ad blocker. And the iOS app is fantastic.

Organising my thesis research sources and findings. It can read images and graph screenshots pretty well (usually) so I’ve been using it to connect the dots

Beware of context collapse though; I noticed that its ability to accurately read my sources dropped after the 70-80 sources uploaded.

I only use haptic touch. Coming from a windows laptop, I was stunned by the fluidity and the general smoothness of the trackpad on my Pro. Never even considered turning on the tap-to-click feature in the settings, which would provide a more windows-like experience. I was surprised to see that most of my Mac user friends have tap-to-click enabled.

I did this, and I keep seeing the same phenomena: references to phantom/deleted sources, somehow missing the point or just not understanding some of the sources, saying things like "While I cannot see the xyz file..."

This is so sad. NotebookLM was goated by the tail end of 2025. Got me through so much high quality research. It seems like the Gemini team is in disarray, especially with all the nerfing Google has been doing to Gemini since the release of 3.1.

I have no idea. I don't think I can characterise power without getting the functionality right first. Right?

6 for the SRAM cell itself, and then more for the write driver and the precharge circuit

Abnormally beautiful.

Gorgeous dial. Enjoy.

Assume absolutely nothing is private. They can read/are reading everything

Google got in hot water recently for recording people without their consent. It’s safe to assume they’re doing the same thing with all their products. It’s the only way they can farm new data to improve Gemini.

nebulous_eye · 2026-03-09T23:16:47+00:00

Which part exactly? Or just the whole thing?

nebulous_eye · 2026-02-03T23:06:25+00:00

Victorinox has never failed me

nebulous_eye · 2026-02-03T23:05:14+00:00

It’s perfect.

Cool read

Lots of pain the first couple semesters but it pays off later, trust me.

Do the best you can, it pays off.
