If you just ask for more money, chances are the answer is going to be more. To successfully negotiate a higher salary, you generally have to point to some value you are delivering or will deliver that justifies the bump in compensation. "I want more money, please" isn't very persuasive.
I'm glad we don't have these because the mfgrs and dealers would just use it to screw over the buyers.

It would be full of ongoing software bugs that can only be fixed if you pay for a $75 oil change at the dealership. Sometimes the headlight firmware will crash while you're driving down the road and somehow the owner will be 100% liable not the mfgr kinda like self driving car crashes. The module will be designed to crack the first time a piece of road gravel touches it and the module will cost at least $1000 and require disassembling the entire front end of the car to replace.

I'm just not looking forward to it.
Well yeah, I think we'd agree that most non-battery based electronic devices are superior to any equivalent device that relies on a battery. You're not refuting anything with that statement.

The fact is performance wise wired headphones are still just better, as well as far cheaper for audio quality.
March or April compared to now seem to indicate we do have a greatly increased standard of care, resulting in a much higher infections per death ratio.
You say that, but I was once driving on a dark, national limit road through the forest one night - and had turned off my full beams because I'd just passed a run of cars coming the other way. I caught a glimpse of a pedestrian and instinctively turned them back on just to catch a glimpse of a (complete f'king moronic) person in full black pushing his bike (with no reflectors) in the road talking to the pedestrian.

After that, as a pedestrian I'd rather have a full beam to the face than think a car might not have seen me, even if I'm safely on the pavement.
Not sure how many cloud vendors are running CPU's with AVX-512 support, but I imagine that if they do you either have to pay for exclusive use of a single CPU (all cores), or thath they indeed disable AVX-512 instructions by patching the cpuid flags?

Note that the downclocking is only really a problem with AVX-512 and much less so with AVX2 and (AFAIK) not at all with AVX.

awesome product! If you are planning to host an online / on-demand school, it's the right product for you!
You are correct, I dont care the punishment schedule as you put it, but here if you keep avoiding paying a ticket they will jail you for a few days. I have had a relative go to jail for not paying a ticket, it wasnt fun but hes highly unlikely to not pay a driving ticket or make the same mjstake. Whats worse is I think he paid for it but somehow the wrong county was involved or some mess its been a few years so I cant remember what the mixup was.
Is it though? On the VSCode site it says "Built on open source." I don't see anywhere it says "Is open source."
I'm not saying the Samsung UI is better or worse, just that people notice.

Google is indeed also guilty of pre-installing apps that people do not want. But things like Samsung Pay or Bixby are a bit more annoying in my experience.
I'm walking around minding my own business, not spitting on people. People who wear their masks while riding a bicycle or walking down the street are making decisions based on what a biased media has told them, not science or data.

Who said anything about higher education? I'm talking about basic civics, basic economics, and basic science. You don't have to look very far to find people beset by ignorance.
Very cool! I've been using svgrepo.com since it's inception and it has been a real life saver! Maybe you should consider submitting your work there?
For me it's more about creating something that I can touch and projects that have an end. Electronics and PCBs in particular just happen to be really interesting to me.

But other than that I can only agree with your comment.

ok... i'll admit, that was awesome!!! i think everyone on the planet has wanted something like this for awhile now. when driving at night, i'm constantly blinded by people who keep their high beams on. it's gotten even worst over the years with leds and raised trucks and cars where the beams are at eye level. this could really help make night driving safe all around.
Defects like those would be subject to mandatory recalls. New vehicles are already full of software-controlled features. My 2017 vehicle has had three recalls that were purely software patches.

> I don't see how you can fix problems if you aren't willing to in the first place look at them, as we've seen in this pandemic the virus doesn't care how optimistic you are.

How can you fix problems by knowing about them? What I mean is: unless you're an expert on the problem, or willing and able to become one as soon as you've learned about it, what difference does it make whether you specifically know how bad something is?

We have institutions to work on things, do we need each individual citizen to be constantly worried about everything that goes wrong, will go wrong, can go wrong or won't go at all?

Does "knowing" about it do anything? Leave aside that you probably don't really know anything if you've read doomsday news, you're just afraid, but the facts are very light and usually styled for effect: everything is always terrible, it's constantly just one minute away from certain destruction etc.
And then people who think they are making way more than their peers will be able to keep living in their dream world.
I agree. Once, I read a piece that alleged "you're not a true intellectual until you've contributed an original thought to the existing paradigm". No one at school had ever said anything of the sort; as we all knew, true intellectuals got incredible grades and were lauded by the system as genius PhDs.

I don't know how to stop these appraisals of fake proficiency without dismantling the entire school system. There are so many students today that feel the burden of "being smart" and strive to prove it to everyone who's watching, who don't realize that they're not actually that smart, and that most people who are watching don't particularly care.
This would not replace yepppp. This is more like a library yeppp would use. If you need to replace yeppp look at something like Intel MKL or Ipps.
They don't even know how to develop an SDK properly, the overall experience feels like no one on the Android team ever used iOS or UWP SDKs or their out of the box frameworks.

Even just watching WWDC sessions would do wonders to compare what they offer and what the competition provides, specially in what concerns native languages support, project templates, graphics, audio and SIMD frameworks.
Fear won’t help, but your larger point strikes me as dead on. There’s just not a lot of ways to put a positive spin on a global pandemic. Don’t worry, be happy is fine in a movie, but if you’ve been laid off, and your unemployment is dwindling, you really need to consider worrying a little bit about getting a job.
I am really struggling with this attitude. Why in gods name would people donate if it didn’t help them?

It’s reading. You know if it helps you or not because suddenly the words stop swimming around.
Dad bought an Apple II when I was a kid, and the A2-FS1 flight simulator simply blew my mind. And then I discovered A2-3D1, subLOGIC's 3D graphics library, on which their flight simulator was based, which started a lifelong interest in the math behind computer graphics.

That's because "there's many per capitas."
Yea I started to bring up the existing ticket for grouping on the dev list and ask what people thought about it.

I also ended up writing a very tiny transformer function and using that directly because core only has a couple supported casts and I needed Postgres timestamp types so I could extract and rollup on the year / month / day. That gave me some insight in to some of the patterns in use in “lower level” Django differ from the expressiveness / composability of SQLAlchemy.
These are two very cool findings about the genetic mechanisms which might be at work provoking specific lethal symptoms that are pretty unique to COVID.

This is such a great use of the world’s second fastest supercomputer and a fascinating discovery achieved through genetic data mining!

It might be the coolest thing you read today and even if it doesn’t immediately lead to a treatment breakthrough, it’s at least heartening to know our world’s best resources are being deployed in this fashion.
He's not a bureaucrat. He's a blind person who, I'm sure, has been frustrated many times at the inaccessibility of an application that he needed or wanted to use. So go ahead and make your applications, but please try not to block people who need and want to use them.
Getting BT headphones that are as good as my current setup would cost me £300+ and even then there would be latency and device switching issues.
Inspections don't really improve road safety much and they screw the poors right into the arms of predatory lenders so many US states don't have them.
All of those things are conveniently excluded by the architectural constraint of using live hegdes as the construction medium: the maze must be planar, and the entrance and exit need to be at the outside to allow access. You can have secondary desinations in the interior that aren’t reachable this way, though.
Curiously, while Django has not changed much, Asp.net has evolved. The new endpoint routing system is very flexible. The DI system is good and templating is excellent.

Additionally, it has amalgameted into a hybrid framework, where adding a high performance API to an existing MVC app has become trivial.

Not to mention, the excellent language and support for tech like gRPC. On the whole, Asp.net core looks poised to evolve and adapt to changing tech landscape.

I do agree that the stability of Django has made it extremely easy to get an MVP off the ground, especially for a seasoned developer.

I have used both and somehow, the strong typing in C# puts enough constraints on me to reason about my web app as a proper app.

In Django and flask, I would often settle into thinking everything in terms of pieces of data, moreso because of the dynamic nature of Python.
> Sure, but are they doing $1k+ worth of maintenance work a month per unit?

There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. In a market with units for sale and for rent, prices tend to reach an equilibrium. The only difference is that rent includes a premium for the relative ease with which one can move.

Another way of looking at it is that traditionally it was considered reasonable for annual rent to be 1/20th of the purchase price of a property. Likewise, 5% annual maintenance was considered reasonable. Unsurprisingly … 1/20th == 5%.

> Many landlords probably spend more time sending out bills than they do on maintaining the property.

That was certainly not my experience when renting. My most recent apartment had multiple full-time employees maintaining it and had an annual improvements budget. I won't claim that it had all the amenities I would have liked, but the landlord was definitely not just letting the cash roll in.
waitUntilResolved() would wait until the promises are resolved and of course let other code execute meanwhile.
The stats should be treated with extreme suspicion at this stage - I've read that the only way to get a decent handle on deaths will be via comparison to normal trends. There is zero chance that deaths are being recorded via the same standards and processes in every country.

Regarding the Brexit negotiations, it hardly helped having a Parliament composed of MPs intent of subverting the result of the referendum, and a civil service, media etc. that chose to go to war with the people. Things look a lot better for the UK now that we have a government that actually intends to stand up for the country instead of delivering it gift-wrapped into the hands of foreign powers to do with as they please.

I always think it's funny when the topic of the break up of the UK is brought up as something British people should be really upset about. Anti-English racism is common in Wales and Scotland (I recall being on the receiving end on several occasions at University - the ridiculous thing being that although I was brought up in England I am more than 50% Welsh by blood!). And England - where I live - will be better off, and more likely to have right wing politics, which is always a good thing. Scotland has a whole range of deep, entrenched problems, and is effectively bankrupt without massive transfers of tax money from England. So enjoy paying for that if/when you let them back in the EU. At least then they won't be able to constantly moan about England any more (though I note their hatred of all things English doesn't extend to English money, quelle surprise!), and will likely start to moan about Brussels instead. And anyway, aren't Europhiles always telling us the nation state is obsolete etc?
In theory every expert level C developer writes correct code, in practice errors happen.
Does this mean I can use tools like https://github.com/metabase/metabase with crux? Awesome if so!
Fully agree. This reminds me of the point Peter Thiel makes about modern life being too internally focused. The distinction between stoicism and indifference is so important. The world is starting to loose faith that we can actually make things better, and that there is such a thing as "objective good". So the only thing popular culture can offer us is to meditate on our attachment, and solute to the sun as life expectancy in the first world stops increasing (and in some places decreases). I think yoga and meditation are valuable, but there is a place for dissatisfaction in the status quo.
Surprisingly large numbers of people do believe in absolutely bizarre things. While half of people don't think the earth's flat, some polls show it to be in double digits. And polls often show up to 20-30% for the moon landings having been faked. In polling a couple of years ago, only 25%(!!!) of US Republicans believed that Obama was born in the US (though this was a significant increase from polls taken at the start of last decade, and might indicate a degree of value signaling).

We're hearing about this now because conspiracy theories about covid are _dangerous_ in a way that belief that the earth is flat are largely not. Another worrying one potentially coming up; a lot of people believe various conspiracy theories about vaccines, and this may become a serious issue if a viable covid vaccine becomes available.
> We have institutions to work on things, do we need each individual citizen to be constantly worried about everything that goes wrong, will go wrong, can go wrong or won't go at all?

To give an accompanying reply to the sibling commenter saying "that's why we have democracy, so we can delegate": that's why democracy in its current state works so poorly; a disengaged electorate.

The "we have institutions to work on things" line could only be uttered by someone so disconnected from reality that they actually believe those institutions can be effective without oversight.
It runs in a browser shell. It's got WebRTC ready to go. The hardest part of WebRTC is dealing with whatever bullshit Mozilla and Apple are doing this week, so given that browser shell is Chrome, and you can hardly walk through a computer science journal without tripping over a consensus algorithm paper these days, it's really not that complex.

Obtaining a PhD seems like the academic equivalent of growing and harvesting a crop, or creating a profitable business. It's so insane that students can make it all the way to hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt and dozens of years of hard study before anyone actually requires them to produce something original that yields additional value.
Half of the "fear of a standardized test planet" is that a certain fraction of elite children are as dumb as posts.

SAT prep courses help a little but won't bring them into the normal range. Their parents are big donors and make the case that they're doing a favor to the smart kids by hooking them up with the economically connected.

Harvard puts up Dan Bell's "Whiz Kids" to the task and discovers that standardized tests discriminate against minorities as much or more than they discriminate against their donors, so Stephen Jay Gould got grants to write books for ten years about how bad IQ tests are.

Which is why I chose two private domains in my examples - a consumer retail environment and public transport, both of which were subject to a change in culture 100-odd years ago, wherein prior boors wouldn't have even questioned spitting on the floor.

'Clearly that is rude' to a modern audience.

I don't disagree with your views on people wearing masks when there's no one about, or they're in a car or on a bike, etc, but you didn't make a distinction initially between that and places where it's reasonable to expect people should 'just shut up and put a mask on'.
Which is also meaningless if the eco-system doesn't grow as much as the competition.

D users put the language into a pedestal of language design, but that isn't what grows an eco-system, getting new users and libraries does.

I used to love the language, but so many mistakes have been made during the last 10 years, that it will hardly recover unless some company champions it, Swift/Kotlin style.

This isn't necessarily true - there is a implied assumption that the infections are still following the same distribution among people with different risk factors, but that isn't necessarily the case.
Why would Django not be able to process other requests while one process is waiting for IO?

I don't know much about Python, but in a typical PHP/Apache setup, Apache simply starts as many processes as needed to answer all requests.

hi@jamesromeril.com
Shuffle, pack/unpack, movemask, blends (SSE/AVX) and interleaved load/stores, byte swap (NEON) are "just" data-movement instructions.

All of them can be implemented (with obvious slowdowns) with a conditional write to memory, then a conditional read from memory. Yeah, its inefficient to do it like this, but this "write then read" pattern really gives us an idea of what's really going on between the registers in a pack/pshufb/whatever instruction.

On AMD GPUs, there's a fully arbitrary crossbar between SIMD-lanes allowing for arbitrary movement. The two instructions are just "permute" and "b-permute" (backwards permute), roughly correlating to gather and scatter respectively.

On NVidia GPUs, perm and bperm are both implemented in PTX, but instead read/write to L1 or __shared__ memory. NVidia GPUs likely have a crossbar to L1 memory to make this instruction very fast.

---------

The solution is to implement perm and bperm on AVX. Its already half-implemented: pshufb is equivalent to GPU-permute. CPUs are just missing the backwards permute.

I'm pretty confident that pack/unpack, blends, interleaved load/stores, and more could all be implemented as pshufb and a hypothetical "backwards pshufb". Version 1.0 could be an NVidia-like "write to L1 cache" sort of implementation too, if full crossbars are too expensive at the hardware layer.

-----------

So the question is: how should we write code today? CPUs of today do not implement this feature, but CPUs of the future might. I think specifying the memory-moves explicitly, and then working on a "pshufb compiler/optimizer" of sorts is what we need.
On the other hand in the day and age we live in we could certainly approach such an issue. The concept of 4chan is that everyone is anonymous therefore nobody ever gets special treatment based on their identity only the contents on that which they share. If you create a publishing platform for scientists that allows them to publish anonymously it will be the contents of the papers that will be evaluated strictly and no reputation damage is involved, maybe even let them digitally sign it in case they ever wish to show that they themselves wrote the paper if it became significant enough.
