I suspect old kernels can be problematic. I had to upgrade past LTS to get my Ryzen 4700U laptop to even get video output.
If you don't mind, I have what is probably a dumb question.

Why does a GPU use PCI-Express still? I understand why they used to use it, but now they are not only standard, but in some cases the most important part of a PC.

I feel like if we could break the basic components out of the card, and bring it closer the system with a more modular design a bunch of things would be better.

Wouldn't it be nice if I could choose more CUDA cores if that's what I needed? Wouldn't it be nice if I could add more dedicated video RAM? Wouldn't it be nice if the the PCI slot wasn't a bottleneck? They're not graphics cards any more... often enough they're used for AI and scientific computing. It feels to me like moving these pieces to the motherboard would be super beneficial. Plus eaiser for other companies to get their fingers in things.
Mosquitoes, I'll grant you, even though they're a significant prey source for dragonflies. But wasps? You should be thanking them for the fact you still have trees, with the way they keep bagworms and tent caterpillars down. Flowers, too, for quite a lot of which they're the major or even the only pollinators.

You mean basically that you needed to use graphical cores for your research, but graphical drivers issues caused your performance to suffer?

It depends on the person. How they like to think. I promise!

Whether we look at it as programming or computer science, it's abstract enough that it's highly personal and each person has their own idiosyncratic style of learning.

Are you saying you're going to recoup the value of your time in under 4 years, or would you just recoup the initial non-time investment in under 4 years?

It may sound like you might be spending something around 20 hours per week on this, if not more. If you bill your own time to your new ISP at market rate, when will you recoup the investment? Is that still 4 years?

To put some math into perspective, (20 hours/week * 4 weeks/month * 100 USD/hour) / 50 USD/month/customer = 160 customers -- that's how many customers you need to cover just your time alone, without considering any other expenses. The math should definitely work out given an adequate intake, but I think it's also easy to get lost in the community and tech part of it, forgetting the business case. Especially if you live in the middle of nowhere, without that many neighbours to sign up.
It makes sense to focus on the GPUs with the highest price per area of die. And remember that the larger the individual chip, the more of the wafer is lost to part failures. So for this rumour to be plausible, AMD’s better GPU tech would probably require larger chips.

30xx parts are made at Samsung on a process inferior to TSMC's N7/N7P. This might indicate that Nvidia's datacenter/HPC parts are worth more than AMD CPU production, but that's not very shocking.

I hear you; that is exactly why I noped out of management and decided I'm perfectly happy to continue living at the bottom of the org chart.

It seems like one of the great tragedies of tech is that the kind of personality and temperament that would predispose a person to being able to genuinely enjoy this kind of work probably also tends to greatly diminish that person's chances of ever being promoted into a position where they'd be asked to do that kind of work.
Articles like this aren't helpful because they pick and exhibit a few case studies instead of attempting to estimate base rates and risk proportions - of course some Amazon products have caught on fire, Amazon has sold a billion of them. What needs to be provided in this type of reporting is actual estimates of how many of the products may be dangerous, which is of course never provided or even attempted as an estimate.

Come on dude, read the comment you're linking to. Where did I make an argument as to the truth or a value judgment as to Biden being a racist? At least read the comment before you respond ... and link to it.

Edit: I'll put a bow on it for you. You say:

>by that standard they're more alt right than the republicans are.

You are comparing comments made by one individual 40 years ago to where your preferred /party/ falls today. You are doing all of this in response to a question as to what meaningful difference there is between the modern GOP and alt-right.

Forget about the fact that even if Joe Biden literally wore a Klan hood on Inauguration Day 2020 your answer would still not be responsive to the question, you must be able to see the issue in needing to go back 40 years in one individual's public life to find a favorable comparison to your preferred party's current positions.

Seriously. Just stop. You're flailing.

Most conclusions from the comments seem to be that

1. Sourcing quality beans is costly.
2. Majority of the people don't care.

For 1 - For a single coffee shop, quality of beans is not the most significant part of price. They can increase ~10c per cup and get much better quality of coffee[0]. However, this might be tough as Starbucks need to source same beans across the world.

For 2 - Following 1, if you only need to increase 10c, and get significantly better coffee, why won't you do it? You're already the leader in 3rd spaces, why not be a leader in coffee too, for a much better moat?

Remember, if you are in the US at least, and someone tells you they aren't ok, and you recommend a crisis line, and they mention anything regarding suicide, they are very likely going to be extracted from their living situation by force and end up incarcerated at very high expense to themselves.

If their life was going poorly before that, it sure won't be better after.

edit: as another poster mentioned, the record of this could follow you around for life as well.
Not really.

Startups aren't going to be targeted for regulatory action unless they are doing something particularly egregious. If you look at what other companies in the industry are doing and do something no worse than what the average company is doing, then you're going to be fine.

Facebook is a juicy enough target that they need to worry about regulations even if they are doing exactly what every other company in the industry is doing.

> You do know that there is a middle ground, right? Emacs itself could come with reasonable defaults...

That's the rub though. Emacs could change its defaults, plan large deprecation and rename, rewrite all its documentation and write even more to help migrate. And 20 years from now someone will be whining about the 2010 "web arcana" embedded in some interface and command set.

> newbies wouldn't have to read about 80's computing arcana

Because here's the perfect example. Emacs isn't 80s computing arcana, it's 60s computing arcana largely encoded into it in the 70s. In the early 90s when I first picked it up there was a similar push to encode the arcana from the 80s instead. "Pick the standard keybinds that make sense!" they said. Like Shift-Delete for cut and Shift-Insert for paste!

... oh, that's probably not what you want today either, is it?

So here's your options:

- Churn the defaults and everyone's configs every 15ish years

- Document as best you can the defaults and how to change them, and make the best UIs you can at the time, in fashion or not. (Kill rings are still better than cut buffers!)

Universal "reasonable defaults" don't exist in a tool meant to last 50 years in an ecosystem of fads.

I live in the middle of Chicago, in the city itself and in a very dense and urban part of it, and we had fireflies all summer. I'm guessing as an adult you're not out much during the hours they're out, or at least not in backyards and alleys where they tend to congregate.

They do seem fewer to me, but who knows, I'm comparing my memories to a kid's from decades ago. I wonder if anyone keeps track of this stuff. I did notice less bumblebees this year, in fact I don't think I saw a single one, but that's my own experiences and not anything scientific of course. Miss those chonky little guys.
Idle curiosity: what kind of applications are these remote systems running? You mentioned the aeronautic industry but I'm not familiar enough with it to imagine the kinds of things you would need to run remotely.
They mention in the build guide that the display is sometimes available for $150, that's probably how it gets to around $200. MPU-6050 appears to be about $30, main PCB is claimed to be $5 or so, another $5 for the lens and foam respectively, and $10 for the strap. That'd bring it in at $205 provided you already had the capability to 3D print and solder and didn't factor in the material cost for those. It's unlikely, but you could probably make it happen.

I assume you could downscale the display to like a 1080p version to save costs as well.

I think ideally those charts would be SVGs that can have elements with their own ARIA labels and be navigated by a screen reader. It would be very clumsy to describe an entire chart in an alt text string.
At Hyperfiddle we are using spec to specify UIs, so e.g. (s/fdef foo :args (s/cat :search-needle string? :selection keyword?) :ret (s/coll-of (s/keys ...))) describes exactly what you need to render a masterlist table with some query parameters. It's being used with pilot customers, now in production. This stuff works!
Reducing engagement data to 0/1 would lose a lot of precious data, it treats getting 50s through a 1m video worse than watching the whole of a 5s clip, and watching a 2s clip the same as watching a 2s clip on loop 20 times because it's so incredible. Given the point of the app is to get people on it for a long time, it would make much more sense to track number of seconds watched and train to maximize that.

I've taken solace that someday my time will come where I will no longer feel or consciously exist (death). So I've decided to work on gratitude first and all other life pursuits secondarily. Life is like a rollercoaster, there will always be ups and downs, until the ride is over. I get someone wanting things to end if they experience physical pain or disease with no escape, but like others have mentioned you're experiencing mental pain and there are options to work on that. How you feel matters, and you're not wrong in many of your perceptions, but you still deserve to feel better and find things that add joy to your life.

Yeah. The term arose around the time the Vive was released to distinguish against the Oculus Rift. It was a fairly subtle distinction - the Rift at that time was optimised for front-facing experiences because it came with two cameras you usually mounted on each side of your monitor. If you moved out of their cone or occluded them by turning around too much then it would lose tracking so most games assumed you'd mostly be facing forward.

The Vive on the other hand had tracking that was usually mounted in opposite corners of the room. Two trackers were more than capable of covering an average sized room and the only limitation on your movement was cable tangle.

The Rift tracking got a lot better eventually - even with two cameras.

The other meaning of the term is sometimes to distinguish between VR that can track the headset position (6DOF) as well as it's rotation (3DOF). But all serious VR is 6DOF nowadays. 3DOF is pretty much the domain of "slide your phone in this thing" VR or headsets that are intended mainly for viewing 360 video.

So - two different meanings of "room scale" that mean quite different things.

I feel like I need to mention this in case some eyes see it that need to hear it. If you're running global teams and you have a side of that team that has to show up at the ass-crack of dawn every morning while you get to show up at 4PM with the entire context of a full work day behind you - ROTATE THE TIMES or ASK the engineers on both ends of the spectrum how they feel about it and be understanding if some of them don't want to show up at 8am anymore. Not to mention it puts us into a super weird conversation where we're half asleep and trying to sound like we know what's going on to someone grilling us with full cognition.

Also, async is one thing. Respecting your peoples time is another thing. Slack, etc can show you what time it is in that employees time zone. How do you feel when the first thing you do is open Slack while sipping coffee and eating your bagel and your boss has 10 messages to you from 6am-9am your time?

Probably not the best start to your day. Let people log in, socialize, be humans and colleagues for a little bit before you hammer them, especially now when work is the only real human interaction some people are getting.

Shopping with Amazon has become increasingly difficult. I can no longer rely on the reviews, and the volume of results that come up for even a simple search make for a lot of searching. Amazon really, really need to stop being the dumpster for cheap and nasty China-manufactured goods.

Whether it's 'hydras' or something similar, the single thing that got me into properly using Emacs was this feature in Spacemacs. For almost any situation, I can either pull up the spacebar 'global' menu, or a context-specific quick-menu. Discoverability has been insanely good, and I keep finding new tricks just by exploring the various menus that pop up.

I wish 'UI autocomplete' like this was a standard feature of operating systems. GUI's aside, how nice would it be to run a CLI command with some flag that allows you to explore the various options and string them together, rather than reading the manpage and searching for whatever flag you might want to use?
