Nothing inherently, but as ISP customers in the 1990s, they were terrible. They tended to spend extremely long periods online, which screwed up the economics of dialup hosting, which was priced for typical residential users (a couple of hours of use a day). We ended up adding ToS clauses to put a stop to them.

The worst of our offenders was a couple—-a husband and a wife—-who both spent nearly all day on MUDs. One of our employees knew them and told me that they lived in a trailer in squalor. Their kid ended up getting taken away from them by Child Protective Services because of neglect. It was a really bad situation and colored my opinion of hard-core gamers.

You might read the article you linked to at wikipedia. It doesn't really support your point. Real (inflation adjusted) figures are more useful than nominal for measuring income growth.
This feels like a strange list. The top five are Debian, suSE, Oracle, IBM, and Microsoft. The next three are Canonical, Google, and RedHat. This feels more like a fact about how much software the organizations are shipping rather than anything about the organizations themselves. I also wonder whether they double count a bunch of vulnerabilities that are in both Debian and SuSE (and Canonical and Oracle and RedHat).
The reason I consider ending my life is because I've done or experienced all the things that realistically I want to or can. I'm never going to be an attractive man, so I'll never have love, or a wife and kids. It's just not worth it to me to work to pay to sustain myself just to watch the planet be destroyed and the social fabric disintegrate. There's just nothing worth the time or effort when living is just so unenjoyable.

It's only common with old houses built for renting, where the owner doesn't have to pay the energy bill, and where modernization as part of insulating the house and building central heaters isn't feasible or economical eg. historic buildings. The devices are heating at night, and emit heat during the day to save energy costs. Not sure if this model makes much sense today. However, heating with electricity, as inefficient as it is, might actually grow compared to heating with gas or oil because of renewable energy subventions (similar story with e-mobility).
You might find that it's better to seek out writing from a variety of sources if what you want is to see a wide spectrum of opinions. There is a type of news that tries to fit in everyone's opinion, but it is dying because very few people actually want that.
A company that was founded based on his suggestion, with his financial and leadership support. He was there from day zero.

Solar City is not just a solar cell company. It is a power generation and distribution company. Which clearly ties into charging electric cars.

Another (very) common early criticism of Tesla: You’re just filling up with coal power.

And. Risky for sure. Elon Musk obviously doesn’t shy from risky. He sets goals that solve existential problems. In this case, our reliance on fossil fuels.

The purchase of SolarCity by Tesla was the single dumbest thing Elon Musk did and it has dire consequences for Tesla the car company. Shareholders definitely have a great chance to sue Musk because he did not do this in the best interest of his shareholders, it's in the best interest of his cousin. Co-mingling all parts of his companies (SpaceX buying SolarCity Bonds) is a huge red flag that reeks of corporate malfeasance. He should have let SolarCity die, it would have come back as a stronger company once the initial investors were wiped out.

Let's say you are an iPhone user and you have bought a bunch of media from Apple. Maybe you really hate the next iPhone announcement and want to move to Android. Would you expect Google to give you a free copy of all the media you originally bought from Apple?

Also you have to get away from the idea that the price of the content is dictated by the costs to produce that content. That production costs is only the minimum price that would allow production to continue. Prices for digital goods are often just dictated by what the seller thinks demand is (since supply is practically infinite assuming there are no contractual restrictions).

I agree that people waste a lot of money on solutions without really understanding the problem.

I think the solution is rarely automate with VBA - however, using Excel with a little bit of VBA can be a useful first step on prototyping what a solution could look like.

But people do waste a ton of money on enterprise solutions that are just overkill for a given problem. This usually occurs in organizations where management has no real technical background and those who do don't have any real authority.

I don't think that's a fair assessment. I played a bunch of less well defined tactical competitive games when I was younger and even though the rules were not perfect we were able to yield outcomes that sufficiently would be satisfactory to everybody and in many cases also representing of the skills of the competitors, i.e. good games.

The problem with "real world games", e.g. like this question of "who gains the most from a creation?" is not that the rules are not perfect, but that there are many players who don't have the slightest intention to play good games. There is good argument for why the creator should gain the most, or his family, or the company that produced the company in a market worthy format. There is even an argument for that the person should take it who through his cunning or strength is simply more able to take the gain. But there is a big difference between competitors trying to win while enjoying the game and those who want to win no matter the cost to everyone, including themselves.

On the gaming table you simply exclude these people, but in the real world you can't.

On Youtube they will probably not take down a video if nobody claims its protection rights. So someone came and claimed these videos.

And that's the problem in my eyes. If everybody is trying to create an enjoyable environment for everybody else nobody would attempt to "generate every possible sequence of notes [for personal gain]" because it wouldn't even be fun even for that player for long.

No, I am not saying that. This is exactly what politcal people at work do - they are so high on their own opinions that they start to plant opinions in other peoples mouths if they don't agree with you, you just did that to me.

I very very rarely engage in any politics talk at work unless I'm totally cornered. I couldn't care less what you think about anything beyond the scope of our work. Chances are, your opinions are nauseating. I will be polite but I won't engage.

I rarely see any political type at work that doesn't somehow create drama. Your politics and your religion are of no interest to me. No I won't join your womens march, no I don't believe in equal pay (regardless of gender etc) and yes I'm a liberal / labour voter that favours unions. These are all distractions to what I am here to do though.

Maybe it's a cultural thing, me and my work friends never discussed politics, maybe that's just the apathy of my generation?
Don't know, don't care. Politics is not for work. It's divise and the people pushing their political opinions are usally toxic and they don't even know it.

not "at every level of their business all at once" This is pretty much exactly what I said in saying it would take many companies a very long time to chip away.

And sure, competitive pressure is there, but it can be at such a low level as to be nominally meaningless. Whether or not IBM dominates any segment, they are still around, despite being in many products and use cases, not at all the best option. That says to me the idea that competition will results in the best products at the lowest price points (the great-great etc comment that started this) is simply not the case except in a sort of platonic idealization of capitalistic competition that only imperfectly, when at all, plays out in reality.

I'm not even saying we should ditch that model of capitalist competition, though I clearly think it should be subject to regulation & oversight that a pure free-market libertarian wouldn't like. I don't know that there's a better alternative than a hybrid competition-with-oversight model. I just think we should keep our eyes open. We shouldn't blindly act from a position of philosophical assumptions that such competition will solve all problems. Or when it might solve them, that it will do so in an acceptable time frame, e.g., more than a century of industrial pollution without a competitive solution until the (less than perfect, better than nothing) implementation of the EPA.

Heck the entire concept of path dependency in economics exists to help explain why inferior choices may persist despite the possibility of better alternatives in a way that defies the "competition will provide" mantra. [0]

Definitely. Intel has said they're going chiplet with some talk about 3D chips too.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/14211/intels-interconnected-f...

Hotchips is full of chiplet talk. TSMC specifically calls out AMD, Xilinx, and Nvidia when talking about chiplets.

https://www.anandtech.com/show/14770/hot-chips-31-keynote-da...

Nvidia's Hotchips highlight is an AI accelerator with 36 chiplets on board (and interestingly, with a RISC-V controller -- probably the one they've been putting in their graphics cards).

https://www.anandtech.com/show/14767/hot-chips-31-live-blogs...

A chip can't bin faster than its slowest core. Getting 28 cores that run at top speed is almost impossible (even with Intel's super-stable 14nm and many chip design iterations optimized for the process). In contrast, getting 8 cores at a high speed happens much more often.

Likewise, a given manufacturing process is going to have an average of N errors per wafer. Duplication of parts of the chip can help, but they increase cost and some parts simply aren't economical to duplicate. If the error is in cache, you can probably laser off a cache block and move on. If the error is in the ALU, you probably aren't as lucky and will have to laser off an entire core (worse errors may even cut out an entire group of cores). A huge 28-core chip has a very high probability of an error meaning that you probably have a bunch of 26-27 core chips, but far fewer 28-core chips.

What is the chances of finding that magic chip with 28 defect-free cores where all of them also run at high-speed? This is one reason why Intel has so many SKUs. AMD also sells the same chip to both consumer and server, so they can take the best of the best and ship them to servers. If there's a defective core or two, laser them out and sell one of those 12-core desktop parts. If it's missing a core and doesn't clock high enough, sell it as a 6-core 3-series chip.

The ability to split fab nodes is also huge. Half of the new Zen 2 chip is 14nm. If they had to make that on 7nm as well, their supply would be halved and prices would go up substantially due to increased chip cost and decreased chip supply. If an interposer is needed, it can be even older (I think AMD used a 65nm for their Fury HBM interposer though something even older like 180nm would probably work just fine for wire-only interposers).

I love the idea of Monica but I've had serious challenges getting it going in self-hosted land. I plan to keep trying though as the idea of a personal CRM is nearly irresistable.

My most recent attempt a few weeks back (following the debian guide in the GH repo + a few fixes on Stack Exchange) resulted in a page that lets you 'register' your first account but for some reason does not load any page. It just appears to either infinitely load or returns nothing, not even an empty HTML file.

I'm sure the hosted offering is great, I'd rather not invest any more personal information onto someone else's servers.

OT -> At some point I'm gonna get up the nerve to crack open a F# giraffe site and write up a small Personal CRM site.

I would want to track things like name, high school graduated, favorite color, name of dog, relationship to me, relationship to other people in the site, reminders to write them a letter every X days, 'on deck' lunch dates I need to plan, etc. Something like a mobile web-ready email-reminder enabled Farley File (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farley_file).

Relevant part since this is paywalled:

"The law Macron signed imposes a 3% tax on the revenue of technology giants such as Facebook Inc. and Amazon.com Inc. Trump objected to France taxing U.S.-based companies.

The tax, retroactive to January, affects companies with at least 750 million euros ($845 million) in global revenue and digital sales of 25 million euros in France. While most of the roughly 30 businesses affected are American, the list also includes Chinese, German, British and French companies."

I can't tell if this revenue will go to France only or to the whole EU, but I'm assuming it's specifically for France and other countries will seek their own deals.

Ask HN: What can I do with 15 raspberry pi zero w's
I happen to live close to a Microcenter. They happen to have the Raspberry Pi zero w for 5 dollars , so every weekend I walk to the store and buy a Raspberry pi zero w. I have around 15 raspberry pi's and I am looking for an interesting project to do with them. So far I have a few project running. 1.- Raspberry Pi zero W VPN server which I use to vpn from work into my home. 2.- I am hosting a full copy of wikipedia on a Raspberry Pi zero w and an external ssd drive. http://wikipenguin.onthewifi.com , but I still have 13 more raspberry pi's that I can use for other projects. Any ideas or suggestion on what I can do with them?

Right, but I'm not basing that purely on these benchmarks. The fact that C++ allows so much, which Rust doesn't, prevents you from transforming code in certain ways that might achieve better performance with identical behavior. I'd just never really thought about the implications of that before. Because of this, in theory, equivalent Rust and C++ code should asymptotically approach a place where Rust is faster, even though at the moment there are many other factors like comparative maturity of the ecosystems.
The Oracle JVM and the OpenJDK JVM (as provided by AdoptOpenJDK and friends) are for all practical purposes identical. There was a time when OpenJDK was still young that you'd probably prefer the Oracle JVM. But since maybe 5-7 years now, the Oracle JVM is basically composed of the OpenJDK plus some additional Oracle licensed features that don't affect many/most applications.

In short, use the OpenJDK for your project. There are no real downsides for 98% of applications. AdoptOpenJDK is a great source, or likewise vendors like Redhat who are also maintaining OpenJDK distributions.
That study specifically says Native Americans aren't as loyal to Democrats as other minority groups.

In the survey at the heart of the paper, "a majority of
American Indians voted Republican in the presidential and U.S. House elections." American Indians in Oklahoma are more likely to identify as Democrat than their white counterparts, but a majority still vote Republican. They're social conservatives, but economic interventionists.

Native Americans have had long experience with "help" from Washington, especially on social integration. They understand it isn't all roses.
