Says who? Or is the only metric of success in your book the publishing of buzzword-filled "engineering" blog posts, parroting the endless nonsense coming from similar "start" "ups"?
A student who gets an A when they should have failed the course may be wrongly encouraged to continue in that direction when they really ought to change programs. This could end up costing that student a huge amount of time and money, to the point of jeopardizing their ability to graduate and ruining their future.

Failing grades aren’t supposed to just be a punishment for not studying hard enough. They can be a warning sign that the student may need to try something else.

I learned recently that even with isolcpu, and nohz, and interrupts directed elsewhere, the kernel will still pause the thread on the isolcpu if it has mmapped a file (e.g., to report stats) and the kernel decides it's time to copy the bits to disk. If you don't want stalls, only map writable files on a tmpfs volume. To snapshot the file, copy it to another file on the same volume, and then snapshot the copy.
>> Quick follow up question - Has KRR not benefitted the same as ML has from advances in GPUs and cheap fast storage?

I don't really know- I'm from the machine learning side of things. I study symbolic machine learning for my PhD and I have a background in logic programming so I know what KRR is, but I'm no expert and I'm not up-to-date with the work in the field.

I think the reason the lay press doesn't cover KRR and other AI fields is that they are, well, fields of academic research and as such not terribly interesting to the press and to most software developers. My intution is that most software developers don't really know much about AI in general, not to mention particular sub-fields of it.

This includes machine learning. It's just deep learning that is an exception to this (quick reminder: AI ⊋ machine learning ⊋ deep learning). We could spend a long time discussing the reasons for that but, basically, I think you don't hear about KRR that much because it's not deep learning :)
This is very similar to my experience. I recently measured the difference on my site as 10%-15% (also a non-tech site, though sadly not at $8m a year yet!)

There’s an easy optimization to avoid inspecting every frame when unwinding which c++ could not implement (for policy reasons) though a platform could: add a pointer to the next frame that needs unwinding to the frame setup. This is like move elision.

If my caller has destructors to run or a catch clause this pointer is null and inspection proceeds as normal. If It does not it stores the value from its frame there. Then if I throw an exception I jump to the next frame that needs inspection; if I don’t then any throw further down the call stack won’t even look at me.

The C++ standard can’t call for this because of the “zero cost if you don’t use it” rule. But a Linux ABI could. The MacOS takes advantage of this kind of freedom.
is there a poignant guide to rust ? something similar to ‘learn you some erlang for great good’ ?
Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately?) we depend upon the a+bi notation to do the right thing algebraically with complex numbers. I do agree, though, that we should always teach that ALL numbers are really complex numbers, although the phase is usually 0 or pi (and that a negative real part is just a shorthand to save us having pi all over the place in most simple math.)
An uplifting song for "underdogs" of the world. I also thought about Elon musk's life experiences.
These conditions are listed as “comorbidities”, which means that they’re illnesses they already had, in addition to the virus.

In no way is this paper saying that the virus caused the listed conditions.
Think the moped of cars. I'd personally love it for grabbing groceries, visiting close friends, jaunts out to dinner and quick errands from spring to fall. I live where many of those things are extremely close.

If someone is wondering where the name comes from: https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Basler-Brunsli-Chocol...

Not sure if it is the best recipe - the ones I use are usually written in German.
The ultimate problem with these kinds of cars is that they're generally intended for city driving. This is fine, except most city dwellers don't have a place to park electrics that also happen to have an outlet.

This leads most ownership to be on the outskirts/suburbs of cities where people will more likely have a domicile with some kind of garage or spec right where they live so they can drive to/from the city or to a mass transit station that serves the city and happens to have parking, yet too far out and it's more likely that those people will need a more robust vehicle for their driving needs.

There's definitely a market for these kinds of vehicles, but it exists in a fairly thin band right at the edges of urban areas.
So, it's like Chinese LSEV and 2 times more expensive
>having a car with no inbuilt radio/speakers will be strange.

That may be the problem with your thinking. By their own definition, it is more of a luxurious golf cart than it is an automobile.

From the article:

>but the two-seat Ami is barely a car. In fact, Citroën refers to it as a "non-conformist mobility object.

>It has a top speed of just 45 kilometers an hour, roughly equal to 28 miles per hour. It's powered by a 6 kilowatt, or 8 horsepower, electric motor.

>For that reason, though, the Ami can be driven by kids as young as 14 in France, or 16 in many other European countries, without a license.

>Under the laws of these countries, the Ami qualifies as a voiture sans permis (literally "car without license"), or quadricycle, a category of small and slow vehicle that, for purposes of regulation, is treated like a four-wheeled scooter.
If someone says, “Here is a wrong thing,” that’s just an acknowledgement that the thing is wrong, but there is no hypocrisy.

If they say “Here is a wrong thing and anyone who does it sucks,” then it is the definition of hypocrisy if they do it themselves.

The smugness is an implicit moral judgment, and the moral judgment has to create a duty to act, or else it’s not a moral judgment (maybe? I’m not a philosopher...)
I wouldn’t want to drive a golf cart in the cold or rain. But, this little car looks like it could work ok in those conditions.
I have a little 125cc Honda Monkey with a top speed of 45mph (55mph downhill). Not able to go 40mph seems like I’d be moving dangerously slow on a lot of roads.

But I agree, I want a tiny smart-car-like vehicle for when it’s too cold or wet.
Over the years my perspective on this shifted a lot. I now feel it’s not worth it to convince people of the need for RFC / design spec process to ensure alignment prior to implementation.

If you’re working with people who don’t agree with that process, just leave. That engineering culture is bad and you’re not going to get anywhere. People will use the empty excuse that careful design docs slow them down too much to convert it into a political debate, and try to make the burden of proof on the person asking for alignment prior to resource committal, burying _you_ in bureaucratic doc writing to avoid writing self-evidently more appropriate design docs themselves.

The idea of changing this kind of culture is a fantasy and you’ll just burn yourself out. Just leave and don’t work for places like that. Don’t hire people like that.

I’ve been really interested in clasp; what’s the current state? Can’t see any recent posts that summarize it.
I understand that using Actix really highlights the speed advantage of Rust... but I think it's irresponsible to encourage rewrites in Rust using a framework that's dead because the developer decided to quit instead of fix security issues[0]. The last thing we need is a bunch of new Rust devs rewriting their perfectly fine Node code using an insecure framework.

Rust is really fast, especially compared to Node. This is an easy benchmark to win. So why not use a framework that's actually secure.

Good essay otherwise, but you can tell this was written a while ago:

Google has over 82 million unique users a month and annual revenues of about three billion dollars. And yet have you ever seen a Google ad? Something is going on here.
> I've been watching your comments on here for days and it's clear you want this to be overblown, as we all do, but you're intentionally twisting the uncertainty in the evidence and data to try and downplay things.

Agreed. There are a few users on here who are almost 'hysterically' downplaying things and it's fascinating. I imagine these are the types of people who would get busy rearranging deck chairs as the Titanic went down, so to speak.
Not Akamai but similar experience here. I've heard good things about CloudFront, but I believe it's mostly on the CDN side? Does it do things like authenticated origin pulls (client cert from provider presented to your origin), automatic SSL certs, health checks w/ failover, DDoS and WAF protection and unlimited bandwidth?

The WAF was one of the reasons we switched, our existing provider wanted to charge us 10x more just for the WAF than the entire Cloudflare plan is now.
Yes. A lot of donations to schools are earmarked for specific things like libraries and sports complexes bearing the donor’s name. The university is then forced to hire all kinds of staff to run and maintain these buildings, lest they ruin their reputation by allowing the fancy buildings to fall into disrepair.

Donations that are earmarked to help students are in the form of scholarships and bursaries. To be honest, there aren’t nearly enough of those to go around.
SourceHut runs its performance critical infrastructure (git, builds) on AMD EPYC. These CPUs are sweeeet. The hard part is sourcing motherboards. I currently buy them from some dude in Germany on eBay because he's the only consistent source I've been able to find.

The virus is like the flu unless you’re old or sick.
More specifically:

0) In the case of the parent, I was saying that the virus spreads and infects people in the same manner as other upper respiratory viruses. It does, this is a fact, and fatality rates are not relevant.

1) I’ve never said that I have no concern about old or sick people. I said that young healthy people should not panic.

2) It would indeed be concerning if hospitals are overwhelmed. Currently, they are not (anywhere) and therefore, again, people should not panic.

3) Comparing tiny ratios with large error bars and freaking out over a “20x” difference in relative risk is pointless; the risk is still quite low. It also overlooks the far more relevant fact that you’re thousands of times more likely to get the flu than covid-19. At this point, you should not panic.

Get the idea? The relative risk to most people is lower than...well, most things in life. That’s why my argument is, and continues to be, that most people, in most places, should not panic.
I heard from somebody the other day that he would not cancel his trip to Japan under any circumstance unless he was fully refunded for his 500CHF JR pass and 1,200CHF flight, or the flight was cancelled. It mystified me, as somebody who has been penniless before, it still strikes me as beyond stupid.

Honestly, unless you eventually want to build a hackintosh(which is very easy with Intel if you know what parts to buy compared to AMD), not really.

For special cases where you need intel MKL then you might be forced to use intel,but at that point you're not really restrained by a budget and it's more than a home/consumer experience.
I know this is sarcasm, but:

I personally never used Itanium, but the features it had at the time were very compelling. Unfortunately, it was too ambitious, and now it’s faster to do OOO execution instead of making the compiler do all the heavy lifting.
That solution makes sense in concept, but people do 45mph in our 30mph neighborhood all the time.
According to Bill Gates there are a number of promising vaccine candidates already but won't be in clinical trials until at least June.

I'm not considering AMD because I'm afraid of stability issues. Too many things that's just unacceptable for me happened with AMD CPUs in the past (kernel panic when compiling stuff; RNG issues zeros after suspend and so on). I don't really need that many cores and price difference is not that big to consider moving from Intel. But that's for my home usage. Anyway I'm really happy that AMD exists and releases good products, because Intel slashes prices like crazy.

Another practical issue is running hackintosh in VM. It was not possible on AMD few years ago and even if it's possible now, it's unlikely as stable and I want to keep that ability.

You are missing the point - it would be an upgrade, if it wasn't coupled with the proliferation of random apps scanning faces and fingerprints and people randomly giving out their biometrics to anyone. It won't take long before script kiddies will crawl the internet using the latest biometric leak just checking which other services the victims used.

Hi! I am the author of this blog post. The assumptions in the third paragraph were there at least since 16 Feb 2019. See https://github.com/susam/susam.in/commits/master/content/blo... for the change history of this post.
Apparently the options are:

* Buy up-front for 6000€ (really 6900 - 900€ eco bonus)

* Long-term lease for 2600€ upfront + 20€/mo over 48 months

* Car sharing for 10€/mo + 26c/mn

The difference between lease and buy are really weird, I wonder what the catch is exactly.
Depends on the school. All of my math classes and most of my CS classes at purdue were bell curved around like a C+/B- and you had to get a C to pass the class. Thus, a portion of each class would not pass and be effectively forced to retake the class to learn it better or switch to an easier major.

What schools do you have experience with? Also, never heard of ACM so I have no idea if that was used whatsoever for our classes.

Can't overemphasised. The fine print of the travel insurance is very important!

However, I don't get why cancellation policies will be a major reason of the spread. Your explanation on sunk cost fallacy and cancellation seems to be missing. Airbnb has a clause to refund under "Epidemic disease or illness"
Monopolies are the entities that can afford R&D, dynamically, outside of government.

Citizen science is cool, but doesn't extend outside of incremental value add domains. Fusion and more will almost certainly be from monopolies or monopolistic competitors.

All your worries, if throughput is all you worry about, and not latency. Or, if you have interaction between threads. Or, if you might need to run on other archs.

An equivalent to TBB or GCD will be in C++23 std libraries, but you can often do better with coroutines, in 20.

TBB and GCD still need to sychronize sometimes, and they randomize workload assignment, which is bad for cache locality (i.e. bad). If you can arrange static assignment and avoid need to synchronize, you can do better, sometimes much better.
OK, but in a society where we've been taught that the thing that makes money is the right thing to do, simply telling people won't change their decision-making. Should we spend public health funds on cancellations? Should we also fund people with non-salaried jobs to stay home?

I haven't worked through the numbers but it wouldn't surprise me if these were among the highest-efficiency ways to spend government emergency health funds, especially in the early days before a vaccine has been developed.
Thankfully we have very nice task-based schedulers nowadays such as https://github.com/cpp-taskflow/cpp-taskflow or TBB flowgraph
If you're having trouble finding stuff my recommendation is to head to a Walmart in a rural area. Walmart has amazing logistics and handles emergencies well: they are rarely out of anything for more than a day or two. Rural areas are pretty low-density and would have a much lower disease propagation rate.

Of course, that's easy for me to say since I live out in the country, 10 miles from a Walmart :-)
Yes, the hyperscalers who received early samples all rolled out EPYC deployments - but that was still a small amount of the market.

The simple fact is the server market moves slowly - server roll outs are planned a year in advance, so you need to be patient.
I have a much harder time beliving in the full set of real numbers than I do believing in the basic construction of complex numbers. The full set of real numbers requires me to accept things like the axiom of choice, and to believe that non-computable numbers 'exist' on the same level as computable ones. That doesn't sit right with everyone.

Basic complex numbers, on the other hand, just require me to expand what I accept as the solution of an equation. Note that I've already done this with fractions.

Fractions:
Given integers a and b, ax + b = 0 has a meaningful solution

Complex numbers:
The equation x^2 + 1 = 0 has a meaningful solution

> Your parents wealth, and where you are born are the two biggest factors for economic mobility

The entire point of "economic mobility" is as a measure of the extent to which that statement is not true.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socioeconomic_mobility_in_the_... (cites several survey papers and 1 or 2 originals)

From a 2015 stanford report (https://web.stanford.edu/~pmitnik/EconomicMobilityintheUnite...):

"Approximately half of parental income advantages are passed on to children. The IGE, when averaged across
all levels of parental income, is estimated at 0.52 for men and 0.47 for women. These estimates are at the high
end of previous estimates and imply that the United States is very immobile."

Lots more where that came from.

This isn't class warfare. It's a statement of fact that in the USA you are likely to remain in the income bracket you were born into. What do to about that is where "class warfare" begins, if you insist on using that term.

ACM is the Association for Computing Machinery. Hopefully someone mentioned it to you before you graduated…
Thanks for feedback. I’ll try to clarify that section.
Whoa, hold up - that's OpenMoko's hardware (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Openmoko), the Neo1973. It predates Android, and was a serious attempt to use commodity free software (primarily Linux, GNU, and various GNOME components, I believe) to do a fully open source smartphone. Bear in mind this was in the latter days of things like Symbian, Blackberry, and Palm Treo, so it was pretty seriously ahead of its time. There's been a long line of similar attempts by various industry actors since.

I have one in my collection somewhere; I even tried to use it a couple of times as a daily driver, but sadly, the project was just too alpha at the time for that.

Certainly interesting that Sun was trying to use it (as relatively open hardware, from a hacker-friendly OSS project, it's was well suited to a skunkworks like that) for their JavaFX work, but it certainly wasn't their own "JavaFX Mobile smartphone".

Yeah if you can get 13M people paying you then obviously you're doing amazing, but even Slack only has 6M paid seats.

But I meant more like if you can get 1 / 1,000 email users paying you $10 bucks a month then that's $480,000 per year, whereas 1 / 1,000 Slack users is $1,560 per year.
