Why would you expect this instead of people simply gradually moving inland and continuing to do more or less exactly what they were already doing? The developing world and developed are identical in that population densities are extremely disproportionate. We tend to have very high densities near water and much lower densities inland. This creates a dual effect of magnifying the numeric impact of climate change, but also giving us immense 'safe' buffers. If we view climate change as a sort of terraforming then the primary effect would be to push coastal regions further inland - not to permanently remove them.

And even in in the low probability worst case scenarios water levels will begin to plateau off simply because there's a fixed amount of possible water on Earth. This [1] National Geographic article from a while back showed exactly what the world would look like if all the ice melted, resulting the maximal possible increase in sea levels - about 216 feet. The peculiar thing is the world would be reshaped, but it'd mostly be the exact same place. And keep in mind that this would happen over many many decades as the sea levels inched forward, thus giving people time to calmly and orderly adjust. It's not like one day you go to bed and when you wake up New York is New Atlantis.

Good for him. Although I don't really understand his stance: did he want to be on a social platform because it was `cool`? It might be only me, but I never wanted to be there because it's cool. I joined it because I wanted to keep contact with some of my friends be it cool or not.
Yes, Bizztalk would be one of them.
I visit family in KL and am interested in tech hotspots. However, the city seems quite normal - is Cyberjaya where most of the action is?

Shamelessly promoting something that I wrote myself:

https://github.com/ProdriveTechnologies/bazel-latex

These are rules for building LaTeX documents using the Bazel build system. What's pretty nifty is that these download (parts of) TeXLive automatically, meaning that you don't even need to install TeXLive in your home directory. Instead, it's part of your project, meaning that everyone working on it will use exactly the same version of TeXLive.
Yes both are a compulsion. The inability to ‘respond’ to a situation and fallback on ‘reacting’ instead.
If they are in that phase, then they shouldn't be on exchanges.
Thanks for the answer! Our initial assumption was also LinkedIn, didn't know about UpWork.
FOMO is the only reason I haven’t deleted FB. There are some could-be-important-for-work people on there that I would rather not lose contact with. Other than that, I like doing real life things with people 100x more than seeing their polished vacation pics.
I think it's most accurate to say that Apple did it and ARM helped.

Apple designed the chip, and ARM designed the platform and instructions for them to build with.

You need pioneers to show it's possible to have a good life on a small carbon budget. Without that you will never convince the mainstream.

Valid question to be honest.

Life is hard. Everyone knows that in order to lose some qeight all you need to do is exercise more and eat less. Still we have trouble with obescity in the world.

I believe that sometimes we underestimate the struggles of other people due to a lack of understanding. It is a dangerous traphole to fall into.
Love what this argument is touching upon, few questions though:

Just repeating an action a second time doesn't suggest an addiction... am I missing something here?
Berlin or Amsterdam would be my picks in Europe.

Bangkok or KL for Asia.

Austin for the US.
Addictive in the way any form of entertainment can be I guess. It isn’t physically addictive.

I like the idea of a child free community being CF myself, but that's not a pleasant or positive place.
The answer here is places that are COLD. For any type of city, the one in a colder place is cheaper. Minneapolis might be a good choice, or Chicago if you want a bigger atmosphere. You’ll have to put in elbow grease to create an intellectual milieu but it is there.
Per https://images.anandtech.com/doci/13392/SPEC2006-eff_575px.p...

SPECint2006 -- 36.93 --> 44.92 is about 20% better

Speedometer2 -- 90 --> 125 is 38% better

That is nearly 2x what SPECint would predict. (It's also not changes in Mobile Safari / iOS 12 because every device benchmarked was on the same version of iOS 12).
Check Bulgaria's Sofia capital - is top notch. Lots of concerts, events, bars, meetups, conferences, sports facilities. Is still growing lot in terms of IT, hundreds of job postings, major companies such as VMWare, HPs, Codix, SAP all have big offices here - check Linkedin. senior positions after taxes pay 1000-2000EU. Rents are 400-600EU for a very decent central place 80m^2 + furniture. 4 mountains around the city, 4+ winter resorts in less than 4 hours distance, 4 hours from both Black Sea and Greece's coastal line. Summer time 27-30 degrees, winter -10. Closest mountain is 30min from city center - trekking, and some ski facilities. The city is safe.
I didn't say the team as a whole wouldn't be able to contribute. I was saying that not all people are able to take over day to day planning individually.

"its usually because people are hoarding knowledge so they dont have the ability to factor that in."

That is like saying that everybody who isn't smart, must be good with their hands. Some people are just not good at certain things, no matter how much they are enabled to do those things. Which is completely fine.

I think that it's inevitable path of processor evolution. When it's hard to increase performance, processors will include more useful bits of functionality for popular runtimes.
> Of course it is addictive, otherwise people wouldn't come back to it after the first try.

So is cheese then. And pens. And fairground rides. And, well, everything.

I'm not disputing that it is addictive, but that reasoning doesn't work. Something can be useful or just enjoyable and people will repeat the experience without that necessarily telling us whether it's addictive.
Can try outskirts of KL such as Petaling Jaya / Bangsar / Damansara. Decent tech talent here. Decent number of tech meetups. English-speaking people in general.

Honestly, KL/Klang Valley is such a gem, cost of living is super low for USD folks. Met many Americans who work on their startup/product here. Your runway extends by 4x thanks to currency exchange.

A huge number of co-working spaces around. Gyms too.
Wow, I’m getting some odd vibes off of you. Would hate to be your friend.
Edinburgh could be a good option. If you look hard enough, it is still relatively affordable (especially compared to the Bay Area) and I’ve found very intellectual people to work with. There seems to be a big focus in the U.K. on collaboration between academic and industry and if you’re into data, Edinburgh is home to a The Data Lab, an innovation centre around data.

I moved here from North America and have previous work experience in Silicon Valley. The startup vibe is slowly getting stronger and we’ve been very fortunate to get linked into the ecosystem.
That's not the right metric for determining whether it's RISC or CISC. See my earlier comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=18074292
How did you get there from my comment? I’m all for legalization but that doesn’t mean that I don’t see that people can develop unhealthy relationships with it.
Could you expand on why you suggest Bangkok? I live here, but I might be in a bit of a bubble.
I wouldn't visit that subreddit. My experience has been that it's an incredibly toxic, polarised echo chamber, like so many subreddits.

There are better, more balanced sources for insight and argument on this subject out there, in my experience.
Davis, California is quite a bit cheaper and close enough to the Bay Area
I've talked with him about those days... Though I haven't chatted with him about Go since AlphaGo flipped the whole world over.

I worked very hard on pulling the same trick at Sony. We'd made Vegas scriptable, and, once it was part of Bapco's Sysmark, we received immense support from chip vendors. Machines, engineers, tools, instructions added to instruction sets... It was a nutty time.

Of course, the biggest wins worked everywhere, like the 6755399441055744 single precision rounding trick, or the use of memory mapped file regions to cache the rendering tree. Still, becoming part of a performance benchmark is a great way to get attention.
You're missing that there are plenty of people who want a scapegoat for their lack of personal responsibility, and plenty of people who will enable them because they're already biased against the scapegoat.
Does something similar exist for Windows (10) to debug graphics card issues?
I do like that it supports multiple gpus. I usually have tmux session up with my training progress (and keras callbacks) on one spit and the other side dedicated to htop/watch -n 0.5 nvidia-smi. Looks like I’ll give it a run this week when I’m running models.
Tell them to mind their own business. You aren't going to convince them of anything, so just tell them you've made up your mind and you aren't their personal baby making machine, end of subject.
Now do the same test with air.
That's theoretical; it could be said about any group of sources on any story. Is there anything to back it up here? Do their descriptions of the sources support that theory, as a small (but still very insufficient) start?
I'd consider Lisbon for the life style and most people speak English.
Since you mentioned Asia, consider Kerala, the southern most state in India. India is like Europe - even though there are lots of similarities, most states have its own language, a different culture etc. Kerala is known for it's high literacy and higher standard of living. Plus its beautiful and raw too.
Definitely East Europe or if you want to go mainstream: Berlin.

You can also live cheaply in South Europe but the intellectual atmosphere is not the same. This area is good for summer hollydays.

The only problem, in both areas, might be the language. English is enough to survive but maybe not enough to thrive.
I was visiting my in-laws in Arroyo Grande and we watched it; the pictures don't really do it justice. The night was amazingly clear, and it was very bright. It was even possible to see some of the longer firings of the maneuvering jets after the stage separation.
Cyberjaya is like the upcoming tech scene of KL imo. It has a growing number co-working spaces, plenty of decent accommodation for low prices, hosts many of big data centers including IBM, doesn't suffer from the traffic issues of the center, parks and greenery, air feels clean, is 15minutes from airport or 15mintues to KL sentral via the train etc.. I usually stay Citadines at DPulze which puts you pretty central and above a shopping centre, it's quite sparse so you'll need to GrabTaxi to different co-working places etc... If by action you mean nightlife it's meh, there a little pretend irish pub where locals smoke inside and few other sterile hiso venues, better hit Bukit Bintang if you need a beer or three (happy hour trend is 3x for some odd reason).
> Oxford or Cambridge in England may not be too expensive

They’re really not far off London prices, and because they’re in the UK, the weather sucks
As someone who edited various technology magazines for a decade or so, I wish someone had told me this. There I was going through life, thinking my job was to ensure a mix of stories that would be interesting to the targeted readership, that read well, that could be properly 'stood up' as factual and didn't land us in too much legal trouble.

Oh - and to make sure the pages were filled on time and budget and that the editorial staff were reasonably happy, and that we referred to companies in the singular.
Munich is an amazing town but it is literally one of the most expensive places to live in Germany. Getting an affordable flat close to downtown is a nightmare.

If you find evidence of discrimination, you take action. What action exactly is up for debate. You could even go so far as replacing the board.

But not all, all male boards will be caused by discrimination, and adding a few females members will not solve this problem in many cases.
Hubble has been in the orbit since 1990, out of curiosity, what is the designated program life and what replacements are scheduled?
I’ve been to Cape Town and I really enjoyed it. It’s got some shorty aspects, but it’s not a huge shock if you are coming from SF. Stellenbosch was also nice. Weather was unbeatable. Food was amazing.
> Considering the article points fingers at China, I wonder if their evidence was manufactured by someone.

What is the connection?

> Without proof (like a board) or the names of actual witnesses or hard documents or something, its basically unverifiable, like claiming Area 51 has aliens.

A Bloomberg article based on a year of reporting, 100 interviews, etc. is as likely as aliens? Hmmm ... I feel I can distinguish it pretty easily.
As an individual, you can’t do that much. But if McDonald’s for example were to put veggie patties in their burgers by default and beef only on request, that would actually change something.

In addition: if you have ever tried the veggie burger, it’s surprisingly good (the beef is a bit tasteless anyways) and I bet most people wouldn’t notice the difference, especially if McDonald’s pimp their veggie patty a bit more.
I wonder about the data legitimacy on these sites.

I looked my place up on Zillow a few weeks ago, and it said $1.5 million. There's been only 1 sale here in the past 2 years, artificially low at $950K. A neighbor's just sold for $1.32M.

Meanwhile, Redfin has mine at $1.04M.

Zillow has my original purchase price at about 45% of what it actually was (and publicly recorded at).

WTF?
Aarhus is Denmark's second largest city. It has a great university, beautiful surroundings and a thriving startup community. Also Danes are good English speakers.
@userbinator thanks for clarification! this is indeed useful and helps understand contradictions.
1. Soma is a fictional drug from A Brave New World that keeps everyone happy
Honestly, not really IMO. Most of the action is in KL/PJ.
He mentions depression. Some of those negative behaviors can also come from that. If that is a factor I think it's much more complicated than "taking responsibility".

He's very publicly being honest with some flaws, I don't think it's right to call him an asshole over it.
Not much English speakers there, very mediocre roads in the city. However, the food is great, life is cheaper then in England, but not as cheap, as it may be at Chiangmai. Or in Scotland.
This is very true, although KLIA2 is often a disgrace for queues, I suffer the hit to wallet to fly out of KLIA/KLIA1 usually.
Cape Town is a cheaper, toned down SF if you're up for it. Bit of an uncertain economic and political future for the country though.
I have a friend who works as a realtor and she says that the market is definitely starting to cool off. There are less "mid-range" buyers and more low-end buyers because the prices have risen too much and interest rates are reducing the amount people can borrow. End result is previously a buyer was a mid-range buyers but now they are low-end buyer because the bank is not willing to lend as much anymore.

Also there is data from CAR which shows both sales price and sales rate is declining. Inventory should start to build up going forward as home sit on the market longer.

That cold-cheap bit is decidedly not applicable to Europe, by the way. Scandinavia is overall among the most expensive places in Europe. I'd imagine Switzerland is more expensive by a bit, but Oslo and Stockholm are brutal as well.
I got by okay without french in Lyon. I thought about (and think about) moving there. The Netherlands is probably the best bet in mainland europe, you could try Leiden/The Hague if Amsterdam is a bit on the pricy side.
In this regard I agree, because of the way media approaches people specially teenagers, media approaches the way how things are needed rather than how can it be utilized. That's why it's building gaps getting them more insecure about what is happening around.
From people complaining about it on other platforms.

Enjoyed the range of topics though, so I stuck around.
you're right, MRC is a major part of FSP but i think FSP does more work than just initialise memory. it also performs some CPU init and also ICH.
It’s not quite the same, but windows 10 shows some basic gpu utilisation in task manager next to each processes, and some graphs in the next tab (where cpu, memory etc are - there’s a new tab for GPU)
Barcelona - one of the best all-around cities in the world (climate/culture/architecture/world proximity/quality of living/beach/mountains) and a growing tech scene.

Very easy to pick up development work here for a local company, you won't be required to know Spanish/Catalan for a job. The only downsides are that the pay is relatively low (€43k average for SE) and it can be quite difficult to find a place to live without local contacts.

Edit - on the intellectual front, I am the least qualified person in my friend group with a lowly Bachelors in Computer Science. Most people have a minimum of Masters with PHDs being pretty prevalent.
This is what my Polish friend said as well, that they're growing like crazy, and drastic negative politics alongside with it as well.
I consider myself addicted to sugar, the good part is that only takes about 3 days of craving to be free of them. After that it's much much easier to keep away from it.

India and China both have leadership that acknowledge the existence of anthropogenic climate change and is taking active measures. That would seem like table stakes but unfortunately we live in a world where that's not a given.

India produces 20% of electricity from renewable sources, not including large hydro[1]. Including large hydro, it's 29%. In comparison, the US produces only 15% from renewable sources including hydro[2] which, of course, has lots of environmental costs before any energy generation begins. This is admittedly a meaningless factoid but still kind of cool - India has 5 of the 10 largest solar power stations in the world, more than any other nation.[5] The Delhi city government has made it mandatory for government and public institutions to install rooftop solar[6]. This is on top of a government program that provides subsidized loans for rooftop solar on factories.[7] There's plenty of other renewable energy, rainwater harvesting, and recycling programs at various levels of the Indian government - federal, state, and city. I'm not saying all of them will work (it's the government, after all) but it's solid effort, and hard cash being put in.

Gasoline costs USD 4.55/gal in Mumbai today[8] - compared to around USD 3.50 in California, which already has the highest gas prices in the continental US. Due to the lower average disposable income in India, this means motorists prioritize fuel economy over comfort, and even safety.

India's annual population growth rate is 1.10% - a shade above the global average of 1.09%[3]. It's also been steadily dropping for decades and that trend is expected to continue.[4] China's population growth rate is 0.41% - lower even than the US.[3]

The only way India and China can keep from increasing their emissions is by stopping their economic progress. This would effectively keep their respective populations poor, undernourished, and lacking modern amenities such as healthcare, transportation, or entertainment. So what do you mean by "on board" exactly? What other shining exemplars of environmental rectitude can one point at to persuade India and China? What other nations have made, or committed to make, similar lifestyle sacrifices?

I don't think that needs for running neural networks will emerge in datacentres. The demand is too low.

Nor is the FPGA the best thing to run them on. Even if you "bake" them into static integer models, that can be mapped directly to gates, that only possible for the smallest ones around. GPUs are pretty much what is the best as it is: an accelerator for doing a lot of low precision linear algebra.

And as a side benefit, you can play Quake on all those GTXes pressed into linear algebra crunching in datacentres. Jokes aside, being able to resell server hardware later on is a very good thing. Moreover, the sole fact that gaming industry is magnitude bigger than whatever happens in HPC will be the guarantor of (relatively) low prices.
> Even you generally accept Wikipedia as a source of factual information

That reduces it to a binary choice: Accept or not accept. A point of my comment is that the choice is not binary.
What in particular makes you believe that a world that suffers the ills from climate change is a world not worth living in? I do imagine it making life more difficult, sure, but—life is already very difficult for very many people, and judging by suicide rates, most people decide they'd rather stay in the game rather than jump ship.
