Depends on which figures you look at. http://www.techspot.com/article/928-five-generations-nvidia-... has a reasonable comparison. Varies between 20-50% over the range of that sample. The increase in performance between the 980/1080 or the titans does not seem out of the "ordinary".

Unfortunately, I don't think it does currently. I think you'd have to reimplement them yourself on top of LLVM... That might change though, this co-routine proposal just came up on the mailing list:

Anything is possible if there's a demand and you market to that audience. Differentiating "cool" from real demand is the hard part. That said, she makes me feel completely inadequate with her side project ;)

Money isn't everything. How sustainable your business is, your required level of commitment on an ongoing basis, and how happy you are doing what you do are also very important.

Yeah, this is basically what kills it for me. When I was unemployed and just building random apps for fun it was great that there was a lot of ongoing progress and evolution in the React community. But when I came back a few months later to show off an app the npm install process let me know everything was deprecated - a bit vexing to consider how much work would be required to keep my shitty side projects up-to-date - not even considering actually building new features into them.
Ditto. I'm a hiring manager and I have worked remotely for >10 years, managing large teams in offices around the world. It works great as long as the ICs and lower level managers are consolidated, but at a large, multinational corporation with complex bureaucracy & organization structures it is very hard for singleton ICs to be as effective remotely as they would in the office.

That said, I'm extremely flexible with informal WFH arrangements, as long as it doesn't impact individual productivity & team effectiveness.

Voice recognition is very accurate on Opus (especially when trained on it). Commentary from an eng at a big voice rec house to me was that switching to opus _improved_ accuracy on their testing.

> There are times when I need 44.1kHz and not 48 kHz, like on an embedded system with everything running at that and no performance left for converting or extra PCM channels

Unfortunately we live in an interoperable world. And there are _many_ devices running at 48kHz without the resources to resample. Your devices would be unable to interoperate.

Being "opinionated" in this way is specifically to accomplish the goal of guarenteeing interoperability in a world with cheap throwaway IoT devices.

I definitely use ES6 for sure, though nothing too crazy (no decorators, bind :: thingy, etc).

Do you remember how you were telling people on Twitter that they don't need every single crazy feature and every single thing in the Redux store (or even Redux at all) to do React? The kind of people I am complaining about are the ones that say the opposite.
Just to help people manage expectations...

Duverger's law suggests that our form of elections results in a two party system. Opponents of the duopoly should advocate for an alternative. Such as Approval Voting.

The GOP REDMAP 2001 redistricting (gerrymandering) effort (and the Kochs Bros) created the Tea Party and the extreme obstructionism and partisanship we see today. Even the GOP regrets how successful that effort was (eg #NeverTrump), so expect a walkback on that.

Having run for office, I never mock candidates. Not even Sarah Palin. People not involved in campaigns just don't know how rough it is.

I see. But it was not necessarily just to target remote people. My wife had to use a time tracker like that a while ago, supposedly for the same reason: understand where people spend their time.
Think of the the other time when people want to be precise: contracts.

Contracts are written down in text, so they can be edited, carefully read and referred to later.

He might as well also say, that in the future there will be no written contracts, we'll go back to debating and settling our issues verbally in public.

Or maybe education is one of those things important to the survival of our species and the improvement of quality of life for everyone. Nobody benefits when someone who wanted to be a doctor or a scientist and was capable of becoming one is denied an education and instead can't get a job for lack of qualifications.

The number of people who've pulled themselves up from their own bootstraps are zero. You're always dependent on others or benefit from their knowledge in some capacity. The degree to which this happens is variable, but it can never be eliminated.

A "self-made man" is a myth. Give it up.

I've been feeling this way since middle school.

I didn't really have any bad subjects in school, so I figured I could do whatever interested me professionally, but nothing really strongly appealed to me other than a paycheck large enough to eat out whenever I wanted. I discovered programming was pretty fun, now I'm a software engineer, and I'm just saving money for.....something. I don't know what.

I've been trying to figure out what I'm moving towards for years. I just don't know where it's going. Marry, have children, buy house, continue office job? I want to really care. I see so much wrong with the world and I don't have any clever ideas on how to fix it.

I don't want to make an app, something that adds a little convenience but doesn't truly make anyone's lives better. I want to fix something that's manifestly broken. I envy Elon Musk above all others, because he's seen terribly important things that were very broken, and had what it took to break all barriers to fixing them. Needless to say I'm not Elon Musk. Most people aren't.

I'd like to fix something social more than technological. I'd like to fix something societal that's broken, like the fact that Congress is literally a joke among Americans, that people feel so detached and isolated from the people creating policy that we don't bother to vote because we don't think it'll change anything.

But I don't know how to fix those things, so I keep working conventional jobs, but I can barely bring myself to do them, because my heart isn't in it, and I feel the years passing.

Wow, this doesn't surprise me either, but that's not to say there shouldn't be more awareness!

For example, one article from 2011 mentions a link between alcohol and stomach cancer:

"If heavy drinking is a cause of stomach cancer, it may be related to one of the metabolic byproducts of alcohol -- called acetaldehyde. The substance is a known human carcinogen, Duell's team notes."

Note that this is related to heavy drinking. One glass of wine per week can be beneficial to your health, for example.

Liver cancer is also commonly known to be associated with alcoholics.

I write retro indie videogames and averaged 1k/mo for the first year and a half after my last release [1]. That dies off pretty quickly if you don't constantly promote though. I have a couple new games launching later this year, one of which is by contract - a 7th guest style puzzle game, and another Action RPG. I've been supplementing my gamedev income with WooCommerce clients, such as [2]. These are purely side projects outside my normal day job as an aerospace engineer.

There are a lot of people (alcoholics, partygoers, etc) and entities (alcohol producers) with a vested interest in ignoring or burying this kind of research. Alcohol is far too entrenched in our society for anyone to successfully campaign against it.

Honestly the resolution is the one thing stopping me from ordering a Superbook. 768p may "technically" be HD, but you can't honestly market it as "upgrades with every new phone" when the display is so far behind the phone that drives it. I realize it has a big impact on cost and battery, but for me it's simply 1080p or bust.
Well, you can't claim to KNOW.
But you can claim to be very suspicious.
>It took more than 1000 years (from Babylon to Archaic Greece) for us to go from writing with only consonants to using vowels for the first time

Yeah and it took "us" 60 years from discovering flight to landing a rocket on the moon. Took "us" 60 years from the first computer to globally-live video streaming in your pocket. Time is a pointless metric when it comes to technology. You don't know what someone is cooking up down in some basement somewhere that will be released tomorrow and shatter your concept of reality.
If I'm going to park one at home and at the office, it's going to have to be better than what $99 buys you. Hell, my desk keyboard alone costs more than that. So I compromise with that teensy eensy screen and (what I have to guess to be...) a mediocre-at-best keyboard so that I ... don't have to carry it around? Why not a docking station into which I can plug whatever screen and keyboard I desire?

I dunno, I don't care to come across as a hater, but this looks like one of those things that is cool at first glance with all kinds of possible use cases, but you buy it, reality kicks in, and it gathers dust after a month.
Oh sure... now you want to frack. ;-)
That explains why product localization is totally not a thing! Yet, ah, it is...
You are correct for market value: http://www.investopedia.com/stock-analysis/070215/why-yahoos...

> Yahoo’s total market cap is less than the $40.5 billion, and after accounting for the cash on the company’s balance sheet, this means Yahoo’s core business is valued at less than $0. Now, this isn’t a new development that will disappear with some quick arbitrage. In fact, the value of Yahoo’s core business has been negatively valued for more than a year, so investors are seeing the value discrepancy measured by traditional means but just don’t believe in the company’s trajectory.
The discussion isn't killed; you just posted in it. The issue is what should or shouldn't be on the front page. Users manage most of that; for example, this story fell in rank because they flagged it. Moderators manage some of it too.

To look at this meaningfully, you need to take two things into account. First, front page slots are the scarcest resource HN has. Second, HN is a fragile place: the stories we most want here are weaker in many ways (e.g. less agitating) than more sensational material, and also quite a bit rarer. There need to be barriers to the latter or it would flood the site.

"It’s a comment piece. It doesn’t contain any new research, nor does it contain statistical analysis of previous research. It’s not a meta-analysis or a systematic review. It is a short essay in the ‘For Debate’ section of the journal in which one woman gives her opinion about whether correlation equals causation when it comes to the epidemiological evidence on alcohol and cancer."
As an aside, I did have one little idea recently that spoke to me:

I was thinking it would be nice if there were some sort of media outlet that focused on solutions instead of problems.

Imagine a news source where the articles were outlines of plans by people in positions to leverage change, explaining specifically what they want to change and how to do it. Every article would end with links and contact information informing people how they could support a plan that appealed to them: who they could call, where they could donate, where they could show up to voice support, or where they could apply to join.
for some perspective... 50 years is just twice the length of time since i've been coding (in some capacity)... and i'm only in my early 30's.
R is generally better for data science, so it's nice to be able to use 1 ecosystem for a whole project. But yes, I too have in the past used python for data munging and R for machine learning.
I think this is BS. Alcohol was consumed in enormous quantities since BC but cancer epidemics is recent thing. I dont doubt it might contribute to some forms of cancer but claim og direct cause is something else.
The problem is that when frameworks develop these CLIs they tend to think only about the CLI users and it becomes larger and larger a requirement. Personally I'm a web developer, I don't want to be a React developer or an Ember developer, etc. so the more difficult you make it to use your stuff with normal web technologies the less I want to have anything to do with it.
Or even the other supposed requirement "effects _all_ accounts". Wow!

Hardware Mod: 980m to Desktop 980 core upgrade
Mike Markkula was mid level manager at Intel (and Fairchild)
I've not read that piece. Thanks for pointing it out.

I'm not pretending the problem doesn't exist. I'm just asking if there is a problem in the first place.

So what's the problem exactly?

1) That people are moving from slack to irc?
2) That slack isn't open source?
3) That slack is easier to use and more fun than irc?

Lst's say all those are true. What damage does those things cause?

1) This will kill open source

I don't think so. Github is closed source, and people are developing all kinds of open source applications on it.

2. People will be less likely to use IRC

Yes, I believe this to be a true statement. But this has been true for a while since the days of ICQ.

3. This will kill IRC.

Perhaps. Maybe IRC should die if it can't adapt. Sent to the dustbin of history like NNTP.

4. People develop software around a closed platform.

Well, so MacOS is a closed platform. People still write software for it.

They made an election promise around university tuition fees. When they were elected and become coalition leaders they reneged on that promise, and then continued to fuck over their core voters (bringing in damaging NHS budgets; really awful benefit reforms (and refusing to investigate increase in death by suicide linked to those reforms) etc.

They got in by focusing on marginal seats. They lost most of those in the last election. They used to get protest votes, but those went to UKIP or the green party, or even labour or conservative.

It is deeply sad that there's even a chance that Yahoo will be sold for ~$5BN to Verizon, which bough AOL for $4.4BN, especially considering that AOL has 0.9% of the US web search traffic while Yahoo still has more than 10% and amazing agreements in place that allow it to show the best search results between Google and Bing. How is this maximizing value for shareholders exactly ?
I'm very clueless to this new architecture, but a concern i frequently hear about is lockin (both in language and vendor).

Does this style of computing / engineering hinder open source adoption in languages? Eg, OS images pre-setup with some type of PHP-style provider, letting you run whatever language you want with low startup time to handle each request?

I'm sure much of this is way off the mark, so to explain it differently, i'd love to be able to work with a Rust framework tailored to this "serverless" model, and hosted on any generic box i want (or fleets of boxes, etc).

And of course, apologies for the ignorance i'm sure is visible :)
Much like us software engineers - don't we like to dabble with embedded, memory limited systems, up to heavily distributed who knows where on earth machines. Or from real-time, to long heavy batch jobs.

Expand or integrate as necessary for whichever systems your team manages with.

Although some of my teammates found it intimidating to have only 0 or 1 results where others might have much more, it presses home the idea that your task progress should be made visible in these external systems.

As a team, storing your progress in a local notes file is anti-team. We should strive to allow any other team member to continue your work using only the information published to these systems.
