>We give everyone in the U.S. high school education and we don't make the claims you make above.

Probably because a high school diploma has been so normalized that it is seen as the baseline. But that underscores the problem. Of course everyone having a high school diploma devalues it. That's part of why its seen as the default. If we make undergraduate education a similar default, it will just devalue that too. Not to mention what happens to the people who can't complete an undergraduate degree. They become even further marginalized in society.

It is faulty reasoning to notice that a bachelors degree correlates with good outcomes and then conclude that more bachelors degrees means more good outcomes. Good jobs are zero-sum. If there are more people who satisfy the requirements for good jobs, the requirements just increase. It's not like most office jobs require a bachelors degree, the fact that so many people have them makes them an effective zero-effort filter.

Normally I would be critical, and call these rumours BS as it doesn't make any sense for Nvidia to own ARM. But First Bloomberg has a decent track record with regards to leaks on M&A, Second being Jensen is one of the best CEO in Silicon Valley.

Assuming this rumours is true, He must have some grand plan or better insight on how this will play out.

Personally I would like ARM to stay independent just like TSMC.

Yes, let's make music rely on the glorious ad industry as well. /s
Lambda@Edge on CloudFront is similar to this, although I don't believe they have that good of performance. I suspect that this would be enough incentive for them to catch up though.

I am able to work within Lambda@Edge's constraints (us-east-1, minimal code size, no layers, low max execution time) reasonably well, but it would be nice for them to start removing some of those limitations as well as adding a speedup (although I have no real complaints about speed).
Sometimes I wonder why we have to choose. Why can't we take STEM degree and learn humanities from Coursera/Khan Academy. Or we take humanities degree and learn programming from Coursera/EdX/Youtube.
Is there any mature integration to achieve this with Kubernetes?
I used to believe that those two were the same but since a few years ago I have come down closer to this.

That said I really do forgive even if I don't always forget:

- the person will get cake/discounts/etc and I won't seek revenge

- I might not however hire them / defend them / etc

I've struggled a bit with this and a number of similar problems since according to my religion there's no forgiveness for me unless I forgive others and I actually have a past so I better not void the deal ;-)
It seems that the current model of of the economy with inflation and growth targets is ripe for revision.

It has pernicious effects of causing 'growth for growth sake' including a vast infrastructure of wasteful spending - e.g. crop subsidies, fuel subsidies etc., millions of bullshit jobs[1] and an overall bias to create and foster consumption based economies.

That model was fine for a time of population expansion and little concern for co-ordination problems (e.g. environmental impacts, labor exploitation). In a time of rapidly slowing population growth (in developed and even many developing countries) and to avoid disruptions due to climate crises, the focus should be to improve the efficiency of the workforce, and direct that workforce to work on the several jobs that desperately need to be done - restore infrastructure, research and deploy efficient and clean technology and remediate (to the extent possible) the environment. If there is still productive capacity left over, it could be spent on reducing tail risk (e.g. viruses)

I suppose Google thinks auto-captions are enough to satisfy the ADA. We'll see.
I wouldn't say so.

If you read turring's actual paper, its trying to find a line in the sand where you can't help but admit a computer is intelligence.

Its not meant as the defining test, so much as upper bound on the hardest test neccessary. His arguments ring true today just as much as they did at the time, although i think his arguments are mildly misrepresented in today's popular tech culture.
That's true in many US companies as well. People like having a vendor they can fire when things go awry, rather than they themselves getting fired.
How Dremio beats any Presto distribution
Apple typically has forward-looking supply chain contracts. I imagine ARM is under contract for the licensing for long enough that Apple will build out their own design team.

Already, TSMC is the manufacturer for the cores, so Apple really doesn't have too much of a dependency on ARM in the short term.

I think what we'll see over the next 3-5 years is a divergence from the ARM-licensed design to an in-house-designed architecture: "Apple Silicon II"
Of course not.

They might be against nVidia GPUs. They won't throw their investment in Apple Silicon out just because of that.
Thanks for the feedback!
Yes, I have been thinking of creating a "How do I" or "Help" page. I have created small videos/GIFs of few features. Will embed them on the website.
Yep, I was really impressed with the process. I _really_ hope it sticks around after the pandemic.
I get that, and I'm comfortable writing raw SQL but as the system grows larger and requirements change I inevitably run into the fact that raw SQL doesn't compose. For me the query builders hit that sweet spot of mapping almost one-to-one to raw SQL, while giving me composition when I need it.

I hate to add to the Advantage2 fan club, but Kinesis absolutely knocked it out of the park in terms of ergonomics. Makes constant typing ridiculously comfortable.
Interesting, Nvidia has been using their own RISCV designs in their GPUs. Perhaps they are more interested for their automotive line?
Oh, one other thing - for instance, one game we worked on that was done for PS1 was made in C, but with a lot of maths methods written in hand-crafted assembly. Things like matrix operations, vector maths etc. None of that code can even build on x64, so it was just removed and replaced with STD calls when possible, or local platform equivalent. The only places which were giving us a headache were methods written in assembly that had no clear purpose(like "ProcessData" with no comment what the "process" part actually did). We had to sit down and actually try to understand what the assembly code did before rewriting it in C++.
Every time I see this affected, illiterate spelling I initially read it as "nattō", the smelly fermented bean preparation.

The parent is talking about intent, not result. The work a PhD does is meant to push the boundary of knowledge, not that a PhD is required to push the boundary of knowledge. Same for the work of a programmer in a company, it's meant to generate value for the customer and company, not that it's the only way to generate value.

A PhD works as a status indicator is valid in the sense that a Github account with lots of accepted PRs into major OSS is a status indicator: that you have done the work and it has been found by academics in that field / the code maintainers for that OSS to be of high enough quality to be accepted. The work (thesis / PRs) and the credentials of the academics and academic institution / the code maintainer and the OSS project are probably public information that can be verified if there is doubt as to the worth of the credential.
Young developers have it easy these days. It’s cool to be a developer and you get to write code while wearing cool T-shirt’s. When I graduated I was probably considered as being about as cool as an accountant in a cardigan. Old developers should get some extra respect for doing it when it wasn’t a cool job. Maybe a yearly bonus.
that's the argument for going to a liberal arts college and majoring a BA in CS instead of a BS.

It be an interesting study to look at universities that offer both tracks.

Take Columbia University that where one can earn a BSE in CS from the school of engineering, or one can earn a BA from columbia college. where the students are taking many of the same "core" CS classes, but the engineering students have a larger CS course load, while the BA students have a larger humanities course load.

I'm sure there are other universities that have similar setups where one can get similar degrees with different course load emphasis.
'Payment sent' – travel giant CWT pays $4.5M ransom to cyber criminals
I wish people would just copy the MS Natural Ergonomic 4000, but with better keyswitches. As things stand, every split keyboard with nice keyswitches has a different layout from every other, which is odd, considering how much this type of device relies on muscle memory to work.

(Also, most of them miss one or more of F keys, symmetrical meta keys, standard navigation cluster layout, volume buttons - it's like they want their devices to be less useful, not more!)

Particularly annoying when there's such a wide range of non-split keyboards with nice keyswitches. You've got all the bizarre layouts you can eat, but you still get the option of a more standard one too.

I agree, I got a bank comfort letter from an Asian client using Sberbank, and found out that the entire bank is on OFAC list!

Russians use this bank like Americans use Venmo.

It just seems like low hanging fruit for a chummy head of state to deal with, because the sanction itself is so hurtful and broad to include the entire institution for over half a decade and never revisiting it.

It is balanced to separate the rhetoric of the head of state from the autonomous and distributed US agencies. Its clear the priorities from the president are self-protection, and the stuff with Russia is just enough to keep investments afloat, while pretty much everything else regarding US agencies and geopolitics is ignored. So all the drama stays at the top of DOJ, Fed, Treasury and what all the divisions do transcends administrations.
While I agree regarding about the awfulness of SWEs who can't write or communicate (which is most of them), college credit hours are too valuable to be wasted on humanities courses, particularly when humanities topics are far more amenable to self-study than STEM topics.
There was SceneForm, heavily publicised a couple of Google IO ago, but then it joined the list of dropped Google projects.

Apparently they also don't believe that much in Java and Kotlin for such tooling.

All their game related efforts are now focused on C++ or middleware like Unity.

As for other libraries, maybe something based on LWJGL.
Apple, Qualcomm and possibly Microsoft already keep all the changes to themselves. They have a Perpetual multi-use licenses.

David Hoffman/Defiant: Ether is the best model for money the world has ever seen
Apple is not fundamentally against the use of nVidia products. nVidia refused to implement the Metal APIs knowing full well that in a few years they'd be replaced by Apple's own silicon. Why spend a 1-2 years implementing adding a feature that will be legacy 1-2 years after it ships?
Oh man - I wish I could have told my dad this in the 80s.

I got grounded when I was ~13 or so - and my punishment was to rake up all the pine needles on our 2 acre property in lake tahoe. The needles had created a blanket over the entire property which was ~3 inches deep.

It took me a month.
The wandering of electrons is called electric current. The article claims the earth crust would be saturated with free electrons - thus having a fairly detectable (I imagine) negative load. Which it doesn't have. And even if it had, those free electrons still wouldn't wander without having a reason to, say the body got itself a positive load by friction or whatever. Then the transfer would be immediate, a hopefully small shock and done, no more wandering (scatter wouldn't matter at such distances anyway). Shortly put: it's an interesting study from the physiology statistics point of view, but the physics interpretation doesn't hold.
I've been eyeing the Ergodox-EZ for a few months and this was an instant buy for me. Lately I've been rotating between TKL keyboards and the Microsoft Sculpt Ergonomic, but my right wrist is still getting worse.

I looked at over a dozen split keyboard options. Seems like no matter if you build or buy, it'll cost around $300. I decided I didn't want to also buy a soldering kit and wait months for parts to arrive.

Here's a comparison site between all the known split keyboard layouts (no moonlander yet though): https://jhelvy.shinyapps.io/splitkbcompare/

I find the people in the tech space to be absolutely dreadful to be honest. Hacker News is no exception to this. I'm probably not an exception to this. Talking to other people in tech is just incredibly draining.
I just find it hard to believe that Softbank would settle for $1B in profit for a highly successful business. They may have overpaid themself or ARM is losing them money, but why would Nvidia want to pay $32B for a money losing business?

Protobuf is not really a great specification for contracts when used outside of gRPC.

Containers are another "worse is better" situation and it's shocking that docker has won so hard given its relatively flawed implementation on OSX.

Rust is overused.

Go is too low-level for its ultimate sweet spot as a language for building command line tools and services.

There is no really great build tool for JVM languages, yet I still find their build ecosystems far more robust than those of JS or Python.
The annual DBIR, which collects incident reports, has ~1/3rd marked as insider ;-)

From a defense-in-depth perspective, agreed: most attacks involve privelege escalation on the inside as soon as they switch from attack vector to breach, even if just host-level, so teams should absolutely "assume breach". Attackers will phish folks, get on their devices, get root, and then have fun there and potentially elsewhere. Ransomware is a more common goal than what Twitter got hit with as it is easily profitable, and it means a takeover. Controls on what most users can do and the ability to scope & report is part of growing up (in the US). It's good Twitter was able to map the attack - I bet many popular social networks couldn't, esp outside of the US or non-top-10.

Shameless plug: A lot of folks use our tool for mapping network logs, and I always encourage to also map out host / app / cloud logs as well, such as logins and the oftentimes black hole that is winlogs.
Why are you sure it is a nation. NATO is by no means an uncontroversial entity. Millions of peace activists—including my self—would love to see it abolished.

Although I do admit, the content of the fake news articles seem a little crude to be coming from peace activists. Personally I would post simple truthful anti-NATO, anti-military, and anti-nuclear weapons propaganda if I had the will to break into news web sites CMS.

EDIT: People are rallying against my anti-militarism. I don’t think there is a point arguing that, and such an argument is blatantly out of topic. Here we are discussing that I have a reason to doubt that a nation state is behind these attacks.

I don't understand this. The U.S. would be much worse without free, universal High School, regardless of whether you think it has devalued over time. I believe that if I didn't have a H.S. education, my life would be more difficult, but I get the feeling from these replies that people view a u.s. high school education as throw-away.
I second the Microsoft Sculpt as one of the most comfortable keyboards I have ever found. Unfortunately, I seem to destroy one in about two years.

Apple already has a perpetual license for the Arm ISA (analogous to the api). The actual chip design has been Apple customer for several years now. Apple does not get their chip designs from Arm.
>I have a hunch it will work on 50% of people.

The number of people on Social Media that don't read past an article's headline is enormous, they are convinced by basic false headlines like "George Soros paying for mind control chips in Covid Vaccine" and it's astonishing. "I saw it on the internet so it must be true" used to be a joke when I was a kid and now its actually true for massive numbers of people.

>> If grounding matters for body chemistry, it should matter for non-body chemistry

True within a specific domain but as it is we have very little idea about the forces that affect biological systems at a lower level - my favourite example is that basic disciplines like the use of anesthesia in medicine have to rely on extremely complex quantum theories* to even come close to explaining how the drugs work. Evolution has had no reason not to rely on extremely subtle aspects of reality.

Apple is currently against NVIDIA GPUs simply because they got screwed over with NVIDIA GPUs before in terms of hardware reliability and such, which prompted them to switch to AMD for GPUs. It doesn't have much to do with NVIDIA as a company and more to do with their hardware.

But when it comes to ARM chips, Apple designs their own ARM-compliant chips, so NVIDIA owning ARM would do nothing in that aspect imo. Especially since iPhone/iPad chips have been ARM-based for the past decade, so I don't think that Apple really has a good option or reason to switch away from ARM at this point.
How to Calculate and Analyze Relative Strength Index (RSI) Using Python
If you look at the products these chips are in and see the breakdown. Cost of IP license from ARM, price to make that chip and price that chip sold in that product, let alone the final product price. The margins are thinest in ARM's area and for each chip they sell, the others down the line do have larger margins. I don't have TMSC's production costs and what they charge at hand, but i'd hazard that what TMSC make per chip is possibly more than what ARM makes per chip.

Maybe why SOftbank want to raise those licence costs and that is with alternatives now about, not that easy an equation than just raising those costs as many for controllers that RISCV become more than fine for and some HD manufacturers already transitioning for a few cents extra savings currently, let alone if ARM license increased.

Sure ARM here there and everywhere but it got that way as much on the cheap costs of using that IP as much as the array of IP packaged up. So yip they make money, but it's if you breakdown how they make money, ARM are regular/reliable, hence less spikes in income either way.

Logicaly, for ARM to increase revenue, it would need to branch out into other markets. Nvidia honestly would be a good fit for that over shafting licensing costs, which may well see an increase, but for what softbank wants for returns - ARM would not wear out the level of increases they would want and Softbank know this - hence sell or IPO them best for Softbank and also ARM.
> If higher ed is highly correlated to escaping poverty and upward economic mobility, then college costs raising at a rate 11 times faster than average income is a form of classism.

this is true if you look at the sticker price, but does the actual cost for a low-income family grow at that rate? I'm having a hard time finding a source that shows by year what a bottom quartile family would have paid for tuition at an in-state public university or an elite institution.
> You can't charge tech companies more than they themselves are making from the music.

Sure you can. Tech companies are constantly losing money at the margins, by paying out more than they take in for a wide variety of things.

It's sustainable as long as tech companies can find financing, or fund one part of their business from another part, which seems fairly long-term.

EDIT: I know I'm gonna lose karma on this, but I'm right. There's no shortage of tech companies with negative revenue, or negative revenue in certain business units, and that money isn't disappearing, it's being paid to counterparties in business deals.
