I'm curious if they're just catering to their most common readers. If they have a high percentage of people that use the site that use workloads where single-core performance or low-count-multi-core performance is most important (gaming, apps that take advantage of 4 cores but not 18, etc) then maybe they thought that their algorithm originally favored Ryzen too much, and this is a balancing correction, not a favoring of Intel?

Also, I don't understand the uproar over one small little overall percentage number- the rest of the numbers are there for anyone to easily weigh one against the other. Just a few lines down it's clear than the 18-core part demolishes the 4-core part in multi-core workloads (as anyone would expect without even visiting the website in the first place).

Being able to handle more programs at a time/etc really has no bearing on "effective speed"- if their workloads are not apps that take advantage of 18 cores (encoders, etc), it's possible a 4-core part could "feel" just as fast, or faster, than an 18-core part if it does their workload faster.

That said, the whole AMD/Intel war is less important to me because fanboyism in any amount is toxic and worth avoiding. People biased heavily enough towards one company will always see anything like this as some kind of conspiracy or attack, regardless of whether or not it's true (something I don't know in this case)

Not really acclimation, but willingness to suffer through it. I hate it when my children want to play outside because I'm out there for less than five minutes and my shirt is soaked through with sweat, it's unbearably hot, and the insects are legion.
When I leave work in the late afternoon, it's so hot my car takes 10 minutes to cool down to where it's comfortable inside. By then my Right Guard has gone left and I'm having cold air blowing on wet skin. It really does suck.

I came across a white paper years ago (2012/2013 ish) on how they used Icinga (An early but rapidly growing Nagios fork) and mod-gearman to monitor their ATLAS computing farm. At the time, as a newly appointed sysadmin, I was looking in to possible solutions that could scale well myself and their usage was very inspiring. Eventually deploying something similar where I'm still working now.

This was done to prevent badly affecting the ecosystem of the rivers. The water from the river is used to cool down the plant, but the resulting warm water is poured back into the river. The temperature of the water going back to the river is carefully monitored and during heat waves it may be decided to shut down the plant. By the way this is not specific to nuclear at all, coal plants work the same, but France is the major exception in the world with 74% electricity coming from nuclear, and most of the rest coming from dams (extremely low carbon footprint for electricity). Some plant designs only use closed-circuit cooling which doesn't have this problem. The towers people usually associate with nuclear plants, is in fact a cooling tower that uses the air to cool the water. Again despite popular belief, these cooling towers are not just for nuclear, they are also used for coal plants (any thermal power plant)

In addition to what my sibling comment says about "sanitizing" external data – which I wholeheartedly agree with – the "open API front-facing the internet" is in the process of changing, if you're talking about normal websites.

gRPC-web isn't quite feature complete relative to normal gRPC, but it is getting pretty close, and the gains of avoiding JSON (de-)serialization would be big. I think once the protobuf story has a complete chapter for the front-end, bigger engineering orgs will roll it out much like they're rolling out typescript today.

If you're talking about actual developer/public-facing APIs, those will probably remain in JSON land for a while.
It takes you as long to read the article as it does to google a simple conversion?
> Basically your argument boils down to

No, my argument boils down to that an Abstract Syntax Tree must represent Abstract Syntax. A stream/list/tree of tokens isn't a tree of syntax elements.

In Lisp (+ a b) and (a b +) are valid token lists and we have no idea what these tokens are other than symbols. In an abstract syntax tree we would represent syntactic categories like operation, variable, constant, function call, etc. and it would be the result of a parse of a particular syntax.

The Lisp reader is not a Lisp parser. It doesn't know if (+ a b), ((a) (+) (b)), (a (b) +) or (a b +) are valid Lisp constructs.

The Lisp reader is an S-Expression parser. Its input is a s-expression and the syntax of s-expressions. Thus the result of its parse can't be an abstract syntax tree for a Lisp program - it simply can't assign any syntactic information: neither implicit, nor explicit.

Definitions (stolen):

Abstract Syntax is a model consisting of the language constructs from which a language is composed.

Abstract Syntax Tree is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) consisting of instances of Abstract Syntax language constructs.
What about tea? Are there places on the American highways where you would get it?
That, and build lots of desalination plants. We can engineer our way out of this problem without compromising our quality of life.
I used to be like this. Rarely drank water actually, mostly drank soda. Moved to Arizona, even in the winter I _always_ carry a large water bottle around with me. I don't keep track, but I'd be willing to bet I drink a fair amount over 8x8 without thinking about it. Climate, anecdotally, plays a large part, which makes sense to me.
Where are you? Apparently there is a surge in AC sales in The Netherlands as well. Sure, we have had a few hot days now and about a month ago, but nothing that can't be handled with a good ventilator. The remaining 355 days of the year we absolutely don't need an AC. Now people have AC units installed and also turn them on when it's 30 degrees celsius outside. Given that we are nowhere near 100% renewable energy yet, it's a hell of a good way to make the problem even worse.
Go has a fast compiler but to my knowledge has zero support for incremental compilation. It has to recompile the entire project, transitively with all its dependencies, before you can run your code modification. I haven't code in go, but IMO this does not scale well as projects grow in size.
I live in the mountains in Central Arizona. I sometimes hike with a retired surgeon and he recommends one liter an hour, maybe slightly less in the winter when it is cold and you don’t sweat as much while hiking. Anyway a liter an hour sounds reasonable. I just got back from a two hour hike with friends and that is what I consumed.

I don't think that argument applies here. The article isn't advocating censorship or legal restrictions on social media.

Warsaw is today 27C, Minsk 21C, Smolensk 18C, Moscow 22C. So not entire Europe is baking in heatwave only the Western part.

For people who haven't dealt with Breezewood traffic, it can mean sitting in the right lane of the Pennsylvania Turnpike for a mile of stop-and-go traffic (while the left lane is going 60mph!) and spending an hour to actually make it the short gap to get back onto I-70. Trying to cross US-30 to hit your favorite establishment is not worth it--if it's not on the right side of the road, don't bother.

What doesn't help is that the PA Turnpike is pretty stingy with its rest stops, especially in the western half of the state. Most states have rest stops at about a 30mi cadence, but you've got ~70mi from the last rest stop in PA to the OH border and closer to ~50mi cadence--assuming the rest stops aren't closed for reconstruction. So even those rest stops are pretty crowded, to the point where you can have the driver get in line for gas and everyone else go to the bathroom, wait in a line that stretches out the door, and still get back to the car before it reaches the pump.
At this point fossil fuel investments carry a significant long term financial risk. Pensions funds shouldn’t be involved in that kind of investment.

>>drink McDonalds coffee. Its actually not bad

I'd agree with that, but with the additional comment that it depends on your region of the country. In some area's it's not just "actually not bad", I'd assert "very good". McDonald's often customizes it's menu to the local region. In New England, McDonald's serves Newman's Own coffee, which I quite enjoyed. At least, they did when I lived there a decade ago - who knows now.

And then, if free will does not exist, you are predetermined to believe that murderers should be rehabilitated.

You took one snippet out of context. The point of the statement wasn't that "murderers should be punished".

The point of the post was to highlight that if free will does not exist, then agency is not something that exists. You don't get the choice. Morality does not exist because like someone else's rock example, you don't ascribe motive to the rock. So if our actions are entirely preprogrammed, and all of our reasoning is post-hoc rationalizations, then you can't really ascribe motive to us either. Because none of us have any real control.

We're either people who do A or people who don't do A. And no matter how much your belief that murderers can rehabilitated, there will be a segment who are just predetermined to not be swayed by such arguments.

You can't simultaneously say free will does not exist and say that we have any kind of control.

When I was a kid, we owned a house out in a small farming community in western Washington State. One of the things we had to do is drill the well a solid 100 feet below the water table, because the upper 60 feet had measurable levels of fecal coliform bacteria. This was fairly rural. Our nearest neighbor was a quarter mile up the road, and we were surrounded by livestock pastures with cattle herds.

I would imagine the current owners of the property have had to re-drill the well at least once as population density in the area increased.
You should probably expect far more than that over your lifetime, but you can pretty much ignore malnutrition and war based on current data on causes of death. Already about 1.8 people die around the world every second from all causes. That's a billion people in less than 18 years. Half of those are for people over 70. About 80% of the deaths are people 50 years and older. 30% of all deaths are from cardiovascular diseases, over 85% of all deaths are from some sort of disease. If you correlate the various diseases with age it's not unreasonable to claim "old age" as the biggest killer. Even if we gain mastery over planetary climate as an engineering solution to climate change, without tackling old age, your estimates on billions of deaths from disease should not change.

I frequently disagree with Eric Elliott's opinions (like claiming that TypeScript is useless, or that everyone should learn "concatenative inheritance"). That said, this article basically matches how I would describe the situation: hooks like `useContext` and `useReducer` overlap with some of the ways you'd use Redux, but overall are a different tool for different use cases. Both have their place, and there's still lots of reasons to use Redux.

I've used Pimsleur at length in the past and found it the most suitable way for me to study language. The drawbacks are the limited programs, they develop at a glacial pace, if at all anymore, and each level is very expensive. But the method is wonderful. I had friends offering to help them develop their particular language into a full course 20 years ago and they said "thanks but no thanks" and there is still nothing but a 10 lesson intro program in that language...and those intro courses are a useless waste of money except to learn how to say "I speak a little <language here>" with perfect intonation. For a long time I wished someone would unseat them but it never happened. Even related theory based sites which complimented Pimsleur like Duolingo and Memrise just got worse and worse with time.
