And bfloat16 is new but not that new: Tensorflow had it 3 years back[0].

Apparently range is more useful than precision for machine learning, which would be why they went 8/8 instead of IEEE's 11/5 FP16.

Steve McConnell observed something like this in "Code Complete": an experienced programmer can get some level of proficiency in a new language in a few weeks, but mastering the tools, libraries and idioms of a language can take a couple of years. Hence, it's a pretty big investment for a whole professional team to switch platforms, and you should try to avoid it.
It might be Wayland. I use a 4k display with Ubuntu gnome on xorg and it works fine. Just pick a resolution, dpi scaling and font size in tweaks that looks nice together and you're good to go.

Look into libunput gestures for the touchpad too if you get the chance.
I genuinely take that as a compliment. I wouldn't be caught dead using a monstrosity like, I don't know, windows 10 (or even the hideous interfaces of Google products) just because it's ""modern"".
> As long as most gains and profits go to a small percentage of people ("the top x%"), no sort of retraction/austerity measure will provide long term large scale benefit. It will only exacerbate the situation.

Exactly. It seems common sense that the economy will grow when the people have money to spend...Which means the people who spend (i.e. not the high socioeconomic people) need money to spend.

Americans don't believe me when I tell them my relatively recent regular UK house is built out of brick!

They say things like 'it's a wooden frame with a brick facade, right?' or 'I'm sure the supporting structure isn't brick.' No it's brick. It's all brick. The walls on all sides in every room are about 30cm of solid brick with plaster directly on top. Even the internal ones.

If you want to run a new light cable or something you'll be using a hammer and chisel to make a channel to put it in.
Yeah, I applaud his early efforts at uncovering some of this, but why didn't he do more? He should have taken his concerns to leadership sooner, pushed for more action, and notified authorities that a foreign entity was infiltrating the information pipeline. There's a new theme is all of this. It's not "too big to fail." Now, it's "too big to care."
Its by no means certain that ICEs will get sufficient investment to improve as much as you say. Dieselgate, carbon taxes and outright bans in much of the developed byworld, China and India choked with pollution make it a risky proposition.

Even if ICE efficiency can improve substantially, can it match the rate at which the price of batteries is falling?
Morgan Stanley predicts EVs will reach price parity with ICE in 2025 and then continue to get cheaper.

This page is hilarious, and reminds me of the early days of both open source and cloud services when everyone thought you needed some complicated sounding new phrase & acronym to be taken seriously. Just because that's the way IBM, Oracle, etc did it so we had to emulate that.

Easy for him to do more denial and deflection of responsibility that news outlets fell prey to the very disinformation HE KNEW ABOUT.
I'm glad you made this point, because I am the one that usually does and gets hammered for daring to even hint that imperial might not be totally insane! The temperature one I've always found compelling. Most humans only rarely experience temperatures outside of 0-100F. That makes sense to me. Celsius makes little sense, except for 0 being when water freezes. It compacts the scale too much for everyday use.

However, beyond basic human usage, I quickly switch to metric for anything involving actual math: simulation, science, finance, etc.

A "cup" is about what a normal drink is. A liter is an insane amount of liquid for everyday use. I don't sit down and drink a liter of wine, I have a cup of wine.

Using only that information, yes.
Replace the names of the two events with "event A" and "event B" and it doesn't sound so weird.
Yes, how do you know EXACTLY what code/service/diagnosis/communication library you'll need in the future?

Answer: you don't. You don't know what corner you're painting yourself into.

The linux kernel, outside of its excessive amounts of drivers, is full of code that is useful for computers, vms, and containers in lots of different situations: normal operation, compromised, at load, in distress, etc.

I doubt you can even make a list of the utilities you'd need ahead of time for getting stats on the container's state. network? disk? processes? memory?

Linux obviously used to scale to very constrained computers (386/486s with a couple megs of ram was the PC state of the art when Linux was initially developed) up to the current supercomputers and large vms on AWS and other vendors.

A lot of the size bloat in linux for container images is the drivers. For containers and VMs, one really doesn't need all the driver variants because a VM/container should just be presented a limited virtual hardware interface. Then you could greatly reduce the driver portion of the monokernel.

Once you get rid of that, linux should probably concern itself with a couple "power of 1000" kernels.

kiloherz/kilobytes of ram (maybe not even bother with this) aka the 80s computer. Since this is an 8 or 16 bit computer, linux may not be practically back-scalable to this mode of computing, but I don't know linux history enough

megahertz/megabytes of ram aka the 90s computer aka the 32 bit era.

gigahertz/gigabytes+ (2000s to modern) aka the 64 bit era.

terascale is basically served by 64 bit kernels afaik.

Your typical container will basically fit into one of these profiles I would guess. But the basic linux/unix model should work for every one of them... because it has, since the 70s, on machines from the PDP-7 on up.

So IMO, container focused derivatives of Linux should concentrate work on tailoring to these levels.

Container applications should basically be targetted at one of the levels.

Granted, maybe the 1000 factor jump is a bit big. Economically there is a big difference between 1, 10, 100 MB and gigabyte memory spaces in particular, and what you can cram into a machine or pod. But the KB image should be able to overlap with the low end MB (although that takes ugly segmentation pointers and other memory extension hacks). The MB image can DEFINITELY encroach on the low end GB image.
Not many people live in the rural countryside, and those that do likely still need cars.

As of lately plug-in hybrids prioritize using the battery pack over gasoline. While the electric ranges are nowhere near Tesla models, 42 miles of pure-electric on Honda Clarity Hybrid, 25 miles on Toyota Prius Plug-In, and 29 miles on Hyundai Ioniq Plug-In, it's good enough for most people's short trips and the cars are cheap enough to be appealing to commuters.
My experience in the Netherlands was that the railways connected all the major cities and stopped at lots of towns and villages between them.

And then there are segregated bike routes all over the place, in addition to lots of on road accommodations.

Do you just not think anywhere there is "out of the city"?
> proprietary file formats, vendor lock-in, monopolistic and restrictive trade practices etc. are reasons why users dread switching OSs.

That certainly used to be true, but I think most of those issues have fallen away, and it's mostly just about applications and unpredictable hardware support. Despite the efforts of proprietary OS vendors to invent new whiz-bang features, most people use the OS as a launcher for their Web browser and the collection of applications that they actually care about (office suite, games, professional tools like Photoshop). Proton is a really big deal because it unblocks migration for the people whose key applications are games from Steam.
Browser extensions?
They fell prey to the same disinformation he knew about and failed to act on adequately. I can't fault those news outlets for failing to catch this problem at the time when they didn't have the knowledge Stamos did about it's true origins and intent. And if you think those news outlets haven't done some soul searching on the issue then, well, you haven't been reading them very closely these past two years.

This is very similar to the sunrise problem.

I totally agree. Linux pro users seems not care much about the detail. I'm the exception. Can live with Ubuntu, but most distros have terrible ui (you can see the misaligned items from miles away).

How to Install Netdata Monitoring on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
"...you can find Kitchloo at a cafe. He admits he’ll spend hours there, nursing a coffee or tea, and staring off into space, deep in thought...trying to get a feeling for the object he’s studying."

That's how people who 'hate' math feel. They stare at the page, run their minds in circles and feel like they're lost in space.

I came back to mathematics as I was learning programming as an adult.

One thing I cannot stand is the general lack of definitions. My mind is oriented to programming where anything outside of the language must be defined in scope. Or maps, which have a legend and define abstract symbols.

But that's just not the case in mathematics. You read the book. Start on page one. Eventually you get to a formula. You can scrape the text all you want, but there are characters without a definition.

What's more, if you try to use other texts to find the definition, some special characters have different values. Or the forumla is defined differently.

OK. I get it. Just as with a programming language, once you pass a certain threashold, it's possible to reason past these inconsistencies and over the gaps.

My question to math-heads, is abstraction more perverse in Mathematics? Does it serve a purpose?

It seems like we both agree that people should be free to make their own choice.

Where I struggle to understand your perspective is here:

> Will they be able to, or are we headed toward a new paradigm, where it's "just fixed, you can go" as opposed to management, options?

As a society right now we are way tipped on the scale toward not giving choice by denying access as opposed to forcing access, so the concern that we'd be forced into relief seems the opposite of my concern (that we will be denied relief).

Doctors are getting really stingy with many medications (because of DEA threats (and in some cases actions) to throw them in prison if their patient does something wrong with them, or even if they are just statistically writing more than other doctors). Try going to get some Xanax, or Adderall, or Percocet. Good luck! If you've had it before it's easier, but new patients you can basically forget about it without a hard diagnosis (which they will happily take tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, and still not provide, because again doctors are terrified of mis-diagnosis and getting sued or treated as a criminal, so they will only do it if there is hard indisputable evidence, which is infrequently the case).

A liter is the largest typically available pour of beer. How hard is that to relate to??

Contrast with a gallon, which is too much liquid for most people to ever drink in one sitting. I feel I have way less handle on a gallon than on a liter.

Also, this guy's arguments come off as really shallow. To quote from what you're citing:

> A meter does not match anything; a foot does. I can imagine the meaning of “thirty feet” with minimal effort. A mile, from the Latin milia passum, is a thousand paces. Likewise a stone (14 pounds) corresponds to . . . well, a stone. An inch (or pouce) corresponds to a thumb. A furlong is the distance one can sprint before running out of breath. A pound, from libra, is what you can imagine holding in your hands.

These are lame ass examples.

A stone is "a stone"? Goddamn, there's stones of all sizes. You can rationalize any unit of mass that way. A furlong is how long you can sprint before running out of breath?? That surely varies a lot by athletic ability (and many people don't run at all, and certainly couldn't make a whole furlong at a fast pace). A pound is what you can "hold in your hands"? Huh? Surely that depends on the density of the material in question and the size of your hands. None of these are helping me out at all.

You can make better arguments by flipping the tables. 0 degrees is where the weather turns from rain to snow. 1 Liter of water weighs 1 Kilogram (compared to a gallon of water weighing 8.336 pounds). 1 Kilometer is simply 1,000 meters. I could continue but I think I've made my point.

The author hasn't demonstrated that legacy metric systems are innately superior. All he's demonstrated is that it can be hard for people to switch, which is true of many people. He hasn't a lick of evidence pointing to people in SI-using countries being less able to visualize what a kilogram or liter or kilometer are. And he won't be able to, because all units are arbitrary, and SI's convenient allowance for powers of ten always allows you to pick a right-sized unit to work with that doesn't yield a number that's either too big or too far off into the decimals.
The TRPV1 receptor is present on sensory nerves, so although it does primarily detect high temperature[1], regulating it can result in pain relief in general, not just a reduction in "burning sensations." Also, the article simplifies the rather complicated molecular biology, much of which is still being worked out. Importantly the article does not discuss killing nerves, just their nerve endings.

[1]TRPV1 also detects high acidity and the endocannabinoid anandamide.

When it is 0 C, you can expect ice/snow outside.

Yesterday it was +20 C, today it is +25 C, so it is noticeably warmer.

-10 C tomorrow, so you'll need your woolen cap and padded jacket. -20 C and add a layer of underwear underneath and maybe a scarf.

When you boil water for tea (100 C) and don't want the water boiling but still hot, aim for 95 C.

When the inner temperature of salmon is +46 C, it is perfect, if it is +56 C or more, it is thoroughly cooked and will not taste soft anymore.

Usually the relevant difference is 5 or 10 degrees.

I don't even want to think what those examples could be as Fahrenheit.

My point is it is eventually a matter of what you are used to, but Celsius is more logical, because it is directly tied to water freezing and boiling.

For the most logical measurements we'd use Kelvin, but it is not practical! "Oh, it is 273.15 K outside, might be black ice on the roads"
It's not a huge obstacle, but it _is_ an obstacle.

I'm not a Python programmer, but I can find my way around without much issue. Still, from where I'm sitting all that stuff about envs and the 2, 3 or 4 redundant, overriden, or deprecated mix of solutions sounds strange to me, I don't really want to buy into that just yet (I need Python like once per month, no more). For the casual programmer ("just want to change this line and run, please") it's just a block in the road that virtually all instructions you might see on any random README in Github might tell you to use "pip install..." but then you have to second guess if they mean "pip2" or "pip3", and whether they assume you'll be running with v2 or v3, maybe they tell you to run "pip install something" (which runs pip2), then in the script there is a Python 3 shebang... the installed dependency won't be found and now you have to understand all this mess if you want to continue.

This is in Ubuntu, where the system's "python" is Python 2, and you need to explicitly add a "3" to all your commands if you want to run v3. I'm sure there are clever ways to solve the issue, but I bet they'll break some use case. I'd just rather none of this nonsense existed at all, then no funny workarounds would be needed.

I wonder, how come other languages are able to slowly introduce some breaking changes over time (I'd swear Ruby was mentioned in some other HN thread about doing this) but not cause this kind of mess (as perceived from my humble external point of view)?
