> how is AVX-512 innovative when it's essentially SSE with 4x bigger registers? am i missing something?

It is much more: Just to give examples:

- The introduction of the opmask registers to mask many AVX-512 instructions

- AVX-512 Conflict Detection Instructions (CD) enables lots of loops to vectorize that could not vectorized before.

Also the fact that now 32 SIMD registered can be addressed does not seem very innovative from the outside, but implies a deep change: Before only 8 (32 bit mode; bite 5-3 of MOD-REG-R/M field) or 16 (64 bit mode; additionally use REX.R field) SIMD registers could be addresses for deep instructional encoding reasons. This also holds when using a VEX prefix. So being able to use 32 SIMD registers requires a completely new prefix scheme (EVEX). This new scheme contains lots of new capabilities (source: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=AVX-512&oldid=841...):

- Expanded register encoding allowing 32 512-bit registers.

- Support up to 4 operands.

- Adds 7 new opmask registers for masking most AVX-512 instructions.

- Adds a new scalar memory mode that automatically performs a broadcast.

- Adds room for explicit rounding control in each instruction.

- Adds a new compressed displacement memory addressing mode.

> AVX-512 itself isn't really an innovation. It's just making vector units bigger again.

Be careful, small tech companies have lots of bullshit and politics too.

People like you and I should make side companies that make a small amount of money without having a sales or HR or management department.

It's just you, the code, and users. You improve the product, the users enjoy it so much that they pay you directly, and you'll never feel the pressure to hire anyone or do bureaucratic things.
At a political level, the entire approach of "get to 60 votes then punch it through!" is all wrong. This sort of change in the social contract of 300 million-plus people requires more consensus and a more gradual change than that sort of move can provide.

The political situation and polarization of the country certainly got a lot worse when the ACA was passed and that is arguably the biggest political problem the U.S. has had since, affecting basically every policy decision the U.S. makes.

To bring it back to jobs without purpose, not wanting to quickly rearrange an entire sector of the economy is a completely cogent reason to oppose a change you would otherwise vote for if it were applied differently.
Anyone have any idea why? Not to encourage speculation but was there something hes been publicly struggling with?

AMP is so obvious anti competitive, the page rank algorithm should treat equal pages that load as fast, now a plain html page, no JS or adds would have less rank then a fancy AMP page because Google can't track people.
I remember watching Robin Williams perform ~2009. He was hilarious and positive on stage at Cobb. After the show he hung out with us and Bing Gordon (his friend). His entire demeanor changed. Unable to smile, look people in the eyes, and holding back tears. People thought he would be funny off stage but he just was extremely anxious and wanted to leave asap. Anyhow, I feel like people (esp. famous people) hide the their internal deadly struggle.

I always try to remember - more than half [1] of gun related deaths in the US are people taking their own gun and pointing it at their head then pulling the trigger. Who cares what side of the gun debate you are on.

I hope publishers understand they're only in for their own extinction by looking at Google/AMP, and are undermining their own efforts to outlaw link preview of news articles on SERP and aggregation pages in EU ([1]). To those that don't: good riddance. I don't care what you've to say when you're displaying this kind of utter media incompetency and hostility towards an entire generation's work on Web standards; same with "publications" on Fb (hello EU state-owned broadcasters).

“Don’t be evil” was, from the second it was suggested by (I believe Paul Buchheit) a acknowledgement of failure. The story goes that the, then very young, company was trying to define their values and every suggestion, no matter how broad, was being shot down by a counter-example. Even “be good” was not enough because too vague, or not neutral enough. A young engineer tried to summarise that failure by a double-negative, which left all the moral undefined.

I still think that this problem isn’t resolved: is the problem the existence of violence, its legitimate monopoly by a democratically elected temporary dictator, or that violence is being misused by jingoistic non-sense, and that the US armed forced are controlled by corporate interests? Is evading that question the most moral stance? I feel like it’s mainly an easier one to defend, rather than the better one.
Pre-fab is a thing in the USA because our building codes and permitting process are ridiculously complex, and also actually building a building is also complex with lots of labor and risk and so on.

I absolutely love pre-fab everything-- long live pre-fab that is customized afterwards.

You know what's also a straw man? Not assuming good faith in a discussion and obtusely attacking something that isn't actually being done. You've been corrected two times now that the statistical testing methods you've been attacking are in fact not how the experiments are being done and that the choice of null hypothesis that you've been attacking is not at all the null hypothesis that is being tested against.

I know you're feeling very right and vindictive but damn if this isn't tiring to read. Make sure you know what you're right about first before assuming the other thing is wrong just because it matches a few keywords that you've read are bad. Because assuming good faith means that you allow for the possibility they might not be doing it wrong. You still get to make your point but it saves your face a lot.

I'd suggest, go outside, attack a windmill for a few hours, think about what you're actually trying to say, and if it's not "hey I read this article on lesswrong and it says everybody is doin it wrong", you'll probably find you can make your point much clearer.

You seem to have more than sufficient knowledge about statistics to think for yourself on this matter.
I’ll grant you that a well functioning market is a good thing. In the absence of ads that create desire, I would use various magazine reviews (Consumer Reports, etc), articles and forums to make buying decisions when I needed to buy something.
>To other jobs have such requirements?

Do other jobs have such benefits? Remote work all over the globe for example? The fact that everyone needs IT these days and so you have tons of work? Nice comfy offices? Apples to oranges won't fly.

> And also what should you do?

Find a work-life balance instead of answering a fair question with a defensive silly question of your own (I ain't even a recruiter and that answer right there made me lol, imagine a guy having to listen to that defensive shit and still having to try and salvage a candidate because he may have strict job requirements). And by that balance I mean either work your ass off to produce quality code in your spare time and stand out among candidates or don't and someone else will stand out instead.

Also check out the irony with this 'my code' stuff too. That's exactly why you have to work ass off in spare time: because every employer goes 'quack! it's my code, don't show it to anyone' so you can't share it with another recruiter.
Best Monero Wallets: Get Ur Wallet (2018 Updated)
There are also more celebrities these days.
Most moved to outskirts of Shenzhen municipality, just to be 1 cm outside of Shenzhen city jurisdiction.

Longhua, Baoan outskirst, Dongguan. Zhuhai in particular scored a lot of heavy hitters, to Shenzhen mayor's disdain. Zhuhai gave "refugees" a complete carte-blanche to setup any factories they wanted.

Very very few factories did use their relocation option to Shanwei. Those were real heavy industry companies in their majority, because for them facilities relocation cost was a genuine life and death matter.

Best to say that 2009-2012 events have led to growth being scattered, and great loss of "cluster effect."

While Longhua was a rural locality before these event, it did scored few companies who moved into already existing, vacant plan economy era factories and refurbished them. Our Wi-Fi OEM contractor rents one of such factories. Longhua's officials were, of course, very glad to see such developments. There are few residential high rises there now for people who moved to work in those factories from Shenzhen. It will certainly acquire title of a city before the end of a decade.

Dongguan was already the second biggest manufacturing hub in the province after Shenzhen, and will soon take the first place from it.

Zhuhai, I bet, will be becoming what mayor of Shenzhen city originally wanted, a high-tech, high-value service/product hub. The city was very receptive to genuine tech companies, and was very accommodating when it was coming to securing land for factories and campuses, as well as guarding newcomer companies from overzealous bureaucracy.

P.S. I think I need to clarify what to understand under factory. The digit of 15000 companies is given for all "manufacturing enterprises," which could be anything from a garage workshop, to a one man factory ran from a flat.
Not overnight anyway. Remember that the bill was passed during the recovery period from a recession.

Shopify app dev here -- it seems to be incredibly widespread; we haven't received a single webhook from Shopify in over 10 minutes and all our inbound traffic from Shopify dropped like a stone.

"Sorry this website only works in Chrome"

"Google Hangouts / Google Talk will no longer support XMPP / Jabber"

"Try our not-so-open source available mobile OS" We'll follow you across the web and in real life because our Open Source platforms are published as proprietary.

"Try our proprietary browser for which we release the code for but heavily modify before it gets to you"

At least Microsoft has open source projects that you get what they share published, no crazy surprises, telemetry aside for .NET tooling (which imho is seriously minuscule compared to what it could be).

That doesn't really have a whole lot to do with AMP, though.

95% of the problem with web page performance today is ads. Google dominates the online ad business, and if they wanted they could have solved this problem from the ad provider end long ago. It wouldn't have been easy, but it would have been a tremendous use of their market clout.

Instead they decided it was an opportunity to squeeze all publisher content through a new shiny pipeline they created, that also coincidentally solves the issue of poorly performing ads. And then manually manipulated their search results page to pressure publishers into using their new format.
I don't know why Tesla defenders keep repeating this FUD:

This is not true anymore. I was in primary school in the 80' (when you usually learn these things, usually twice) and indeed, the Gaulois mentality was strong.

My children now go to school (the same one btw) and they are repeatibly taught about how good the relationship between the Gaulois and the Romans was. The Gallo-Romains is all the rage now and they supposedly mixed extremely well, each taking from the other three good parts of their culture.

The trade aspect of the Gaulois' work is also highlighted a lot (so they are not shown anymore as warring tribes).

I think my children had a passing info about Vercingétorix but it was very minor.
Have you ever watched his shows?

There is a sad dark thread going through all of them.. dark humor, his comments on life, interactions with other people etc. She time He made it interesting and very real. The world is not all roses and I think that's what he tried to show.
Developer and son of a farmer here. It's a bad analogy. In farming, there are very real "deadlines", and you can do 14 hours of useful physical (well... driving machines) work for a few days at a time. At other times, there really isn't much to do. You can find something to do if you want, but it doesn't make much of a difference.

In software, your mental capacity is the most real limit, and it's limited to about 5-6 hours per day for the most demanding part of the work. You get the most out of it by using it every day. Having just the right amount of work to do is hard, but working creatively for more than 6 hours per day is impossible. I have talked about this with many people and everyone seems to agree with 5-6 hours. (As somebody with a home office, I find that a very long break in the middle of the day may allow an extra hour or so)
It would be cool to have a country which used the rest of the world's pollution to create it's own energy.
Frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if it actually _was_ a ton.

I'm honestly curious if it was ever about money or just that - if you, you know, ignore the whole "killing people" aspect - killbots are an incredibly difficult and complex and cool piece of technology to work on. You go from problems like "can we draw a box around the faces in this artificial dataset" or "can we keep a car between these white lines" to problems like "can we identity a person from a km away while traveling at 100mph" and "how do you take evasive maneuvers" and "can you do all this with hardware mounted on a drone with an acceptable latency". The whole Jurassic Park "you got so wrapped up in asking if you could you didn't ask if you should" thing.

From a quick read of your law extract, it doesn't seem to cover that aspect of your original claim (and if it does, I'd warmly suggest you highlighted the controversial bit for those who like me have a hard time grokking through such a long text)
Did you read that section to see why they think it'll help? It doesn't sound like politics to me.

I don't think OP was implying you should attempt to counsel the person. You don't need experience to check in on friends and coworkers if they seem off. Ask them if they're having thoughts of hurting themselves. Listen to their answer. If they are, encourage them to seek professional help; whether that is giving them the information to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (1-800-273-8255) or assisting in getting them in to see a mental health professional.

> 95% of the problem with web page performance today is ads.

No. I use extremely strict ad-blocking and many website's performance is still shit, both concerning load times as well as CPU hogging.

The problem with web page performance is people believing that by distributing all their (mostly unnecessary) assets over two dozen unrelated origins they speed things up. They don't. That's what makes things slow.

The problem with web page performance is people believing they need some mirrored btree-reverse-hash-indexed shadow DOM, 1.5 MB of Angular, four to five more JS frameworks and 20000 NPM packages with a "ng build" time no less than 50 seconds to show a news article.

The problem with web page performance is people believing a page would render faster if, instead of sending HTML, you send a giant blob of JS which, after almost choking a parser to death, then does a XHR to actually fetch the content and then starts to render templates into actual HTML.

(You know, before everything went apeshit, we used to tell people to put <script> tags last in the document, because that way the browser can render your page without blocking on downloading, parsing and executing your scripts — no one would notice if the menu bars lacked soft animations for 0.3 s after a page load, but people would of course notice if the page stayed blank for another third of second.)

Larger airlines create really well produced (and expensive) safety guideline videos as a supplement to the safety speech before each flight, and they still have attendants pantomiming the safety procedures. Smaller flights just have the attendants. I think this is a form of branding, it "feels" like a better product when you have a video with expensive production values.

Is it necessarily true that a bullshit job has to server no purpose? I think a doorman is like the safety video. It makes the product feel more expensive. I agree it's a bullshit job, but it contributes to the impression your company is making. Maybe a well produced Analytics Report makes a sort of impression like this too. At a glance you can prove you are a high end company that has everything together, and produces sophisticated reports as evidence. Even if it's a bullshit report, spending 5 figures to make the report is worth it, if it secures a bunch of 6 figure customers.

I'm not saying we should secure bullshit jobs, I'm just trying to voice some more perspective.

> Don't wear a suit

I guess this varies from country to country but personally I think that's bad advice.

In my experience it's better to be over dressed than underdressed.

I'm in my 40s and have never worked anywhere that had a formal dress code, it's always been wear what you want unless you're talking to a customer. I pretty much expect most dev jobs to be jeans and t-shirts.

I'm a contractor now so do quite a few interviews and a suit to an interview is an easy choice.

You look like you give a shit when you turn up and you can make a joke with the interviewer about being overdressed to break the ice.

Much harder to do it the other way round.
