That would have been hard to write out and genuinely support a couple years ago, when NVidia ruled the top-of the line as well as the best value-for-money most of the way down the chain. It was a hefty hit to your framerate or your wallet to support AMD.

But these days AMD is a serious contender at all levels! If the performance or value isn't actually in AMD's favor, it's near enough to be undetectable outside of a benchmark, and very easy to support the good guys.
Physical Limits of Computation (2009)
Individual humans can only contribute up to $2700 directly and $5000 to a PAC. Corporations are not tied to these limits if they want to establish their own PAC which is what they do. No one will prosecute PACs that blatantly collude with candidates illegally so campaign contributions to PACs are essentially limitless for corporations but not for people. People have less rights to speech than corporations. The problem is that corporations and lobbying groups are legally allowed to buy influence and more money is more influence so the wealthiest people and businesses will always have more rights under our current system as long as they keep the masses divided.

The first two criteria in your list are irrelevant, it's purely due to licensing.
This explanation clarifies a lot about what the problem is with the particular engineer. Thank you for explaining in more detail.

I do agree that it is important engineers work with others and see beyond their own small sphere. It is not a skill many engineers are good at, but it is still something they should be trying to do and do better over time.

Flexibility is important for those writing code. If they just pump out components that require extra rework to make other things compatible with them then there is a problem.

Work is only done and done well when it can be used as it should be. Completed work should not create more work.

Also agreed that having a professional attitude is important. You don't have to love stuff you actually hate; you just have to be able to talk about it and interact on a professional level. If you actually hate it you can carefully state that you don't like it; but it shouldn't affect your ability to interact.
This is one way to help the competition immensely. The premium nvidia charges for their tesla cards just isn't worth it. It's not enough of a performance advantage to warrant the price increase, and reliability wise you can by 6-10 1080ti's for the cost of one p100.

Sounds like the only option is to abolish for-profit prisons, which is obviously easier said than done.

TDCJ you get indignant inmate package of a few stamps and paper per month, baking soda to brush your teeth and for makeshift deodorant, a tiny toothbrush once every 3 years and that's it. None of the jobs you do allow you to earn money, so inmates all trade or hustle for things from commissary such as shampoo.

In contrast, Arizona prison system has outside employment contractors where inmates can earn min wage, and when they are released X years later they often have savings in the tens of thousands to support them with a soft landing so they can go to school, or just get an apartment.

Not first sale as this isnt the sale of a copy. This is a contract.
So, my summary:

Unsourced Japanese news outlet published an article claiming this clause was added to the EULA. (Edit: located here: https://wirelesswire.jp/2017/12/62708/ )

This version of the EULA, located at:
http://www.nvidia.com/content/DriverDownload-March2009/licen..., has the no-data center clause. Note the "2009".

The version linked from the actual driver download page (at https://www.geforce.com/drivers/license ), has no such clause.

I think I'll postpone my outrage until the clause appears on the EULA that I actually have to agree to when I download GeForce drivers.

Alright, edit:
For me, downloading drivers through https://www.geforce.com/drivers gets me the second EULA that I linked to. However, downloading drivers through http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx?lang=en-us gets me a EULA with this data center "limitation". This seems to me to be pretty problematic and an ineffective update.
Billboards track cars using the RF of the TPMS sensors on your cars and then make inference about who the driver statistically would be ....
The one I saw was pretty obvious, more like cell phone camera obvious. Most people just don't look up or closely.

I imagine as awareness increases you'll see things like remote cameras zoomed in/etc.

To be fair the one I saw I only knew had a camera - I assumed it was for facial recognition, but I can't think of any other plausible reason for it.
I think you can. I changed the very dynamic of my family by changing myself. I grew up with a snippy and grouchy mother, and so I was a snippy and grouchy parent. But when I saw my kids treating eachother poorly for far too long, and nothing I did fixed anything. I changed my tactics completely.

I stopped being grouchy and snippy. Or at least at first I stopped expressing myself this way to them. I was determined to end this trend, no matter what. After a few months (literally) of me not raising my voice, unless it was totally and completely justified (which I discovered was very rare) I could then say to my kids (and wife), I expect you to talk nice and decently to eachother, and as soon as they accused me of being grouchy, I pointed out that I hadn't been for months, and something changed, everyone started to listen to me, even when I talked quietly.

I've become a morning person, I started jogging about 5 years ago (I hated exercise), I stopped eating white sugar in 1995 (because it was controlling me like a narcotic), and I have worked on many of my other bad habits and traits. I think anyone can change anything. And I really like reading about other people's successes in self change as well.

Everything from quitting smoking, losing weight, success in work and relationships brought back from the brink of destruction. We just need enough of a reason to do something, and then we can do it.

The trick seems to be, can you make up your own reasons? I know we can. (also I defeated crippling life long depression, food addictions, weight loss, and few other things many people want to label "diseases" we have no cure for or control over, I call bologna on that, we can change anything.)
This article, and the comments to it here on HN, are written from a perspective that seems to ignore:

1. These prisoners are in prison for a reason, and

2. The severe, of then horribly violent, result of contraband in prisons.

So, I investigated the split between Jobs and Woz, and it seems that it was 65.4/34.6 at the date of the IPO (p. 22 of https://wiki.epfl.ch/a3-angels/documents/reunions/a3angels07...).

But when the company started, the split was 45/45 (10 for Wayne) (http://www.foundersatwork.com/steve-wozniak.html).

Steve Wozniak was not interested in money, that is how I explain the difference.
Still, even at the time of the IPO, the split was slightly more than 33/66.
On seeing the date range in the title, I was hoping that latency had been pronounced dead. Sadly, this doesn't seem to be the case, but at least we're back down to latencies we saw in the 1970s.
I wouldn't judge it that bad. "it" is not a popular opinion, and the downvotes are due to a sensitive topic and a biased crowd if you consider the time of your posting. "it" seems popular because, ironically, everyone else just does not care enough to spread their seeds of wisdom.
I avoid rust due to the annoying, symbol-heavy syntax that requires too much Shift-key usage.
If you want to pass-through a consumer Nvidia card to a VM, you need to hide that you are running a VM from the guest OS, otherwise the Nvidia drivers will fail with some obscure errors.

That seems like a pretty clear assessment to me.

For most Deep Learning developers, using AMD is out of question until DL frameworks like TensorFlow start natively supporting them. I am not really sure if/when this is going to happen. AMD needs to really step up their game.
The "2009" license is the correct license. If you try to download a GeForce driver from NVIDIA's website today, that is the license that you must accept before in order to download the driver.

On Windows, it's also the license you must accept during installation time before you can use the driver, even if you did not accept it during your download.

Interestingly, the license inside the Linux package does not include the data centre clause at this point in time.

The bot he says is buying 95 BCH at 8500. I don't see how this is profitable as the the price quickly falls and the bot lost a lot of money. This is just a bunch of bots trying to catch trends. You can see this on the stock market as well. See stocks like LFIN or LTEA.
I talked to a company that was building some kind of hardware to transcribe in real time what conversations people were having at bus stops (the round trip to the server was not fast enough).

They said the buyers used it for targeting ads, after the facial recognition stuff was considered not enough.
Was this actually an executive-level decision? The announcement of this change (if you can call it that) was so bungled it creates the impression some low-level person in legal did this without coordinating with the rest of nVidia.
You say it is all wrong, but you provide no reasons.

We've moved everything to .NET Core in Docker containers on Kubernetes. It's been solid all year and .NET Core 2.0 is definitely production ready.
I'm still skeptical (tell me what I'm missing) - are commercial real estate prices in NYC really going up 10% / year?

Certainly as a residential renter for ~12 years (in the same areas that have high vacancies) I haven't seen a rent increase like that.
Does it matter when it was? Also not worrying about their stance on things until it gets to the EULA closest to you seems too laissez-faire for me. Rewarding this behavior early on is exactly how you get that clause into your own EULA.

Restricting innovation is an anti-competitive and frankly a dumb move -- who knows how many innovations were discovered in data centers that made their way to the mainstream.

That said, It's a little easier for me to be outraged at this, I'm already running Radeon, so I've already voted with my wallet.
Price point is everything. Good luck.
If you believe you can get 12% higher rent by waiting for a year, it's worthwhile to leave the space empty.

An interesting comment that dovetails nicely with this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16002397 :

Seems simple to fix. A building sitting vacant is depressing everything around it, pushing an external cost onto the city.

Leave it vacant and your property taxes triple to offset this cost.

Such a policy would probably need fine-tuning (e.g. what is the optimal number of months before taxes kick in, what is the optimal rate schedule, etc.), but it seems reasonable on its face.
My brother and I were talking tonight about arbitrage and how it's likely happening on Bitcoin considering how close the exchanges are tracking each other despite being independent from each other.
Nobody pays for software anymore, myself included. There are a lot of good apps on alternative stores like F-droid that snd blocking in app ads isn't very hard.
If you wanted to use a secondary nVidia card for PhysX, all was fine until nVidia changed their driver to disable PhysX when it detected an active AMD card.
Disagree as someone who has programmed in both Scala and F#; I found F# pretty much could do the same things just in different ways. In F# I found more ways to squeeze performance than in Scala which by comparison is bloated. For the data applications ive written F# wins usually especially with ad-hoc tactical apps and in my experience was easier to teach than Scala which is not as coherent of a language.
You're probably referring to the app 'Is It Snappy?'.

AI Failures in 2017
I don't believe these metrics, because I can certainly tell the difference between a 10ms ping and a 60ms ping in an online game. Yet there is this cat in my neighborhood that makes me think I'm deluding myself, and that I'm actually a quarter-second behind the real world.

It is a long-haired black cat. It doesn't like us. But it does like taking a shortcut through our front yard. If it sees us, it freezes. It waits, mid-stride. Then when it's satisfied we're not a threat, it starts moving again. If I move my arm or shift my body, it freezes again, sizing me up, sure that this is the day -- after all these years -- that I'm finally going in for the kill.

What's weird is I am convinced that this cat knows when I'm going to start moving. It halts before I move. By the time my head is moving or my arm is waving, it is already frozen and on high alert.

My working theory is not that this cat is telepathic or that it has defocused temporal perception. Rather, I think that because the cat is smaller than I am, its eyes are closer to its brain, its nerve impulses don't have to travel as far, and it really and truly knows before I do that I'm moving. Otherwise I can't explain this cat's superhuman reflexes or its blatant disregard of general relativity.
I went to https://www.geforce.com/drivers and searched for 1060 on Linux.

Then clicked through to https://www.geforce.com/drivers/results/126577. This page has the standard "*By clicking the "Agree & Download" button, you are confirming that you have read and agree to be bound by the License For Customer Use of NVIDIA Software..." That sentence links to the EULA that I linked to.

EDIT:
Alright, it matters which site you download the driver from. See the edit to my original comment.

No, the SSA shouldn't be doing anything of the sort. That would be a ludicrous expansion of their role and a waste of money. If you want to be mad at the government that your childhood was shit then at least complain about child welfare departments or something more relevant than you not thinking your dad spent his ssdi check directly on you.
I like how it's all in the browser. I'm sick everything requiring an app download. Still, you should be able to just use it from the Desktop. Why force people?

Also, why do you need access to my microphone? I really want to post something. I am alone this holiday. But I don't want to give you access to my microphone. Why do you need it? It just looks like text and photos. If I deny access, I can't do anything.
My username has nothing to do with anything. I simply chose it to hide my identity. I said what I said because I hack multiple programs throughout multiple platforms. These kind of blogs usually give a sense to companies that all hackers are like these. This leaves a bad impression about what we actually do. I don't think simply having hackerone in my name will make me bias. If you check my comment, you will see I have not said that HackerOne is right and the hacker is wrong. I have simply pointed the right facts that I felt was important for everyone to see. His blog leaves out a lot of points and also misguides readers.

Hopefully this clears it to you.
Mind if I reached out to you to chat about your experience in running search at scale? How do I contact you?

How could it? No one trusts it. It is literally impossible for Facebook to ever provide an anonymous service of any kind, because they will always be able to implement some algorithm to at least try and associate you with your real identity.
Also, I wish I am an hackerone employee or work in any of these platforms as an employee. I am simply a hacker and also employee of a company that runs a bbp so I have in both sides and I understand frustration of both side. Being frustrated does not provide excuses to the hacker's behavior of harassing an employeee based on their degree. This community is diverse and that is what we should learn to appreciate.
Of course it matters which version we are looking at. It was not initially obvious to me that this clause was added, not removed between 2009 and now. See my edit: Two different driver download pages link to different EULAs.
Why is it on AMD to support TensorFlow? Pretty sure it is on the machine learning people to use the standard APIs like OpenCL or Vulkan etc instead of CUDA...
Tech company contract – disclosing creations after leaving the company?
I am recently reviewing a new employment contract at one of the major social media tech companies in Silicon Valley.

In the contract it says the typical intellectual property stuff and how they own everything except as outline in the California Labor Law 2870.

However, one little thing they snuck in there says that during the period of the relationship AND for one year after, I must disclose to the company in writing of any inventions created by me or jointly with someone else. And when I do that, I must provide in writing all evidence that the invention qualifies for protection under California Labor Law 2870.

This seems a bit ridiculous to me. Essentially anything I invent for one year after my employment I must now tell the company??? Why? What if I go work for another big tech company, and invent stuff there, do I now have to inform my old company? Isn't that some sort of breech of contract with my new company?

Anyone have any info on what the point of such a clause is and what happens if I go ahead and make something but never tell my old company I no longer work for?

Notes:

You can have both at the same time. If you want to build a SPA, go for Vue only. Build if you want to have a more traditional application and only use Vue for some views, it will work with turbolinks, you just have to use a gem to help you with the caching (turbolinks cachês the body tag to speed up the back button, and the gem clears the Vue app before the caching happens making it idempotent).

Turbolinks is amazing.
Obviously having to work as a greeter at the age of 79 with spinal problems is not a great situation, and people deserve security in old age. But is working to this age really the end of the world?

Simply putting my name as HackerOne user does not mean I am bias. Also no, hackerone or Uber none of them paid me to say the comments. If simply putting my points and pointing out the wrong facts will make me look bias then so be it.

One of the big hurdles with OLED is avoiding “burn in” and image retention. For TVs it’s not so much of an issue (although even with my 2017 LG OLED I’ve experienced temporary image retention) as the picture changes often, but with a computer display that often shows static images (think menu bars), it’ll be really obvious when you go to watch a movie or play a game.

Be smart and talk to a lawyer before signing, they may be able to have your contract renegotiated in more favorable terms. When I leave a company it is no longer their business what I create once the official last day of employment has ended. If you start your own company you would possibly end up giving away your own proprietary company information or for if you work for someone else you may not be allowed to disclose what you create publicly and signing those terms could conflict with the terms you agree to with another employer.

Author is claiming that a single bot is able to drive up the price on GDAX and then arbitrage the difference, ignoring the fact that more than 1 bot is in operation.
It's not necessarily a market price increase that they're waiting for, but rather a higher bidder. Why rent now to a (price-sensitive) local pizza parlor if you have a chance to land a national bank that can afford double the rent without a second thought?
No, it's really not. It's things like asking a homeless old man for identification paperwork to enrol him into a housing program, or kicking people out of programs because they are addicts who can't quit without help, and making people visit an office in person during a weekday with all their children to get certain aid, when it would be better for them to be at work and the kids at school.
