>it seems that the ultimate goals of mainstream music industry are: [...] Songs are an effective way to deliver a message to be repeated over and over and over again until people break and assimilate the message.

It sounds like you're saying that the music industry is engaged in a conspiracy to change people's behavior. Is this a correct characterization? If so, is there any evidence for this conspiracy, or some plausible motivations? I'm not sure how the powers that be would benefit from people being more violent abuse drugs, or disrespect women, for instance.

It really depends on workload. For ImageNet and resnet type architecture its not unusual to get 3X speed up. It also depends on if you do full fp16, leave BNs alone etc. This is a lot because instead of training for 6 days, you now training for 2 days.

I should have been a bit clearer what went into the charts. I do not use theoretical marketing numbers but real-life benchmark data from NVIDIA and 4 other sources of benchmark between Titan V, V100, RTX 2080, RTX 2080 Ti and Titan RTX. Since I calibrate a model that needs to satisfy all sources as best as it can I think the numbers are pretty accurate.

> This is not so different than using a session cookie that is not marked as 'httponly'.

The difference is a session cookie is tied to one server, but an access token could be used with many different APIs or other services. That said, an access token may expire more quickly, so the devil is definitely in the details.

> One another thing we're looking into is access tokens, like having the user re-authenticate or use a stronger factor(or multiple) to get the AS to grant them a very short lived, non-refreshable token to do their sensitive operation.

That makes sense, for sure. You could definitely require MFA to get an access token and have it be short lived. At that point it gets to a question of UX and how much impact you want on your users, but I'm not familiar with all the requirements you have.

Ask HN: What Is Your Blog?
Hello HN, I've been considering starting a blog, but realized I didn't know where to start. Wanted some inspiration so I thought I'd ask ya'll:

1. What is your blog about?

2. How often do you write on it?

3. Where do you host it (medium, substack, self-hosted, etc.) and why?

4. Link?

What killed Haskell is its obsession with monad-as-burrito tutorials that had nothing to do with getting anything useful done, as well as considering writing a PDF in Latex as an acceptable substitute for a blog post or documentation.

Nothing in Haskell was sufficiently interesting to justify overcoming the conceptual barriers and different culture.

I agree with this somewhat. I’d go further and say that colleges should scrap the whole “unwritten rules” system. Why are surreptitious acceptance policies accepted in public-funded universities? If they’re going to be lax on athletes for academic standards, why it taboo to discuss even though everyone knows it happens? We all know that rich donors get preferred admission as well. Can’t we just be honest about it instead of pretending that the system isn’t corrupted? We can’t improve without acknowledging any failings.

The bright side of it, if there is one, is that the modern industrial pace of extraction has not gone on that long - fewer generations than you can fit on your fingers.

So the cultural hole we are in is really just a few hundred years deep, not thousands. It's just not so visible that that is the case, except perhaps to some indigenous cultures, or those who have visited the undeveloped world. This capacity for self-harm was built by forgetting our holistic selves and putting other things first - work, wealth, fame and glory, the national interest. It'll take a little work, but we can remember.

Well if files in an ISO are aligned to some boundary it would help a lot, similar to how filesystems on disk have a sector size, where all files begin at the start of a sector. However, I don't know if this is true in ISO9660 or any of its extensions.
> completely different people at different times that happen to contain one or more identical files

Yes, this won't be useful for speed.

But it will be useful for health and appearance of health.

So a torrent that has no seeds because it's missing "RARBG_DO_NOT_MIRROR.exe" can be filled in quickly and have proper seed info.

Also large seasons can be filled in. They get corrupted at later episodes because people will prioritise the first episodes then the seeds can jump.

So anyone filling in the later episodes through single episodes torrents might repair the season torrent.

It'll allow over lap between torrents only differentiated be a missing RARBG.txt if they are both fragmented.

There's always been talk of allowing a torrent to have files added to it. It's be interesting to see if this might be useful client side to do this in a Claytons way.

Personally I don't think it's useful for Linux isos. Not sure on this. Do Linux isos get unhealthy?

You look at which group has more power.

This is not hard. You can’t be fired for being straight, in multiple states you can be fired for being anything other than straight or cisgendered.

People aren’t physically or verbally assaulted for being Christian, they are for being Muslim (in America, other countries the reverse can easily be true).

There aren’t elected officials campaigning on a platform of banning Christians, or deporting illegal Europeans.

A common refrain isn’t that Christians control Hollywood and banks.

No president other than Obama was ever subjected to continuous claims that they weren’t born in America.

These all show you who has power to set the baseline for what is and what is not ok.

This isn’t a hard concept, unless you’re deliberately choosing to dismiss every group other than yourself.

Respectfully ignoring the snark, we have an immediate problem and tress aren't fast enough, take up too much land, and the land needs to be suitable.

I've watched the past 30-odd years - and my father for 50-odd years before that - as fertile farmland with good reliable rain (this is not a common combination in Australia) has been built-over with housing. Agriculture has been pushed further out to areas with less fertility and rainfall.

Most of the remaining wide open spaces in Australia can support little more than bush and patches of grass. All the good land with rainfall has people living on it.
I am with you on that. I buy apps if they provide value to me. If it has a one-time purchase option next to a subscription, even if it is $30 - $50, I pick the one-time purchase.

If it's a journaling app, a calendar app, a habit tracker or a drawing app and it wants me to pay monthly, it's a hard 'no' for me as well unless it has a cloud component that I feel justifies the price. There is mostly nothing in it that justifies paying monthly, it's just an offline app.

"But developers need a salary too" - yes, then price your app accordingly and charge for upgrades. Subscriptions make me feel if I stop paying I lose the app and can't access my data any longer. That, and subscriptions pile up.

If I subscribe to one app it's not a big deal, but if I subscribe to 10-20 apps and they all cost monthly, it adds financial stress on me and stuff I 'have to keep in my head'.

I 100 percent agree that it takes up to 6 months on average for most developers to become super productive in a code base and at least 2 months for them to be at the comfortable but still not sure on everything phase.

I also agree with the helicopter aspect as well, that’s a key insight on your part and I bet your team likes your mangement style (mostly :)

I dislike when employers don’t structure their expectations accordingly. I once worked somewhere where we almost lost one of our most talented developers (in terms of productivity and quality and insight, a real rock star) because initially failed to understand this. Thankfully our director stepped in and made it right.

I don't think anyone takes Elon's word as final. Even if they did, when you buy a Tesla it has the FSD computer disclaimer on the purchase page, and enabling any of the features in the UI show as "beta" and have giant warnings[0] before you can enable them. Given the beta wording, plus the fact that you already are getting insane value with the promise of continuous over-the-air updates for years (2012 cars still get updates, although the exciting changes in recent updates usually deal with the new hardware old cars don't have), I don't think anyone is going to start asking for refunds.

Your statement here is self-contradictory, or perhaps you intended to write “means to an end” instead of “end in itself”? (The two are opposites.)
You’re right and that’s the crux of it really: intent. That’s why framing someone as being in the wrong regardless of intent is dangerous.

> the .z updates are always bugfixes and security patches

Fair; I was talking about those updates that are required in order to fix known vulnerabilities.

> If you have this problem, then you've got a bigger trouble to solve... Unfortunately sometimes users have no control over it in many software.

"Regressions" is probably the wrong word[0], but new features by definition have new bugs in them (they're code that wasn't there before, so the bugs in that code weren't there before); the problem is that some security fixes for the pre-feature-X version aren't available without adding the new bugs introduced in feature-X code.

0: I was aiming for the opposite of update in the sense of adding bugs rather than removing them.
My company has been WFH since mid-March. I've loved being able to just start working instantly after waking up and finishing my morning routine, but one thing I've really missed is the 30minute drive home after work. That period of time was effective in resetting my brain from "work-mode" to "home-mode".

It's been hard going from shutting down my laptop straight to playing with my kids, it seems like I'm part-zombie at first and not as lively as I would be later in the night with them.

I definitely relate with this. This is why I do my “scripting” these days in Go. Programs aren’t editable like Python, but compiling a Go program results in a single executable that I can just drop onto a host somewhere, without worrying about interpreter versions and pip and all that crap.

I haven’t found Bash to be much better in practice. You can’t really do much with Bash alone, it’s only as useful as the tools you use it with, the ones you install with your OS package manager. And Bash versions themselves can vary dramatically. Try writing non-trivial Bash scripts that are portable between macOS and Linux...it’s a nightmare.

(Yes I know there are libs for python that can do this, but in general Go is just simpler: it has everything I need for writing utilities out of the box, including way simpler package management, and I can come back 2 years later to some code I wrote and jump back into it with no effort.)
It isn't just about weight distribution.

My yard is a forest. I have a mini excavator with tracks and I can sneak in and out of places without disturbing things too much - as long as I don't have to turn sharp (and the ground isn't too wet). I think the walking machines might have an advantage there. The tracks can only slide sideways when you turn, that tears stuff up.

I think part of what made it great is the time slot that it was available in. The only people listening to radio that late at night were people driving in remote areas. If you were at home you had the tv, if you were at work you were busy. If you were driving at 1am, you had Coast to Coast. So it wasn't just the content, it was the content + being alone in the dark, in a vast expanse somewhere. You can't do that anymore because everything's replayable, not bound to a time slot.
I think the exact opposite from that demo, they chose Doom Eternal for the first showing of FPS from the 3000 line precisely because it's the best looking title they could get to run at 4k 120+ on the card not in spite of its looks.

Perhaps you just don't like the art style or prefer something that's prettier at low framerates than decent looking at high frame rates? I mean when it came out there were articles literally written about how optimized it is for the quality https://www.tomshardware.com/features/doom_eternal-graphics_.... I'm not saying it's the best optimized game of all time but it certainly is in the top quartile.
I don’t think this is remotely why and the premise is disingenuous as well. It seems pretty clear that they’re against public funds going to private institution rather than they want you to have no choice of where to send your kid.

What's the evidence Haskell has died?
It seems to me that a fad has passed. The language is doing well. But the pretentious hipsters have moved on to their next obsession.

Rust? Well, talk about hip and groovy blah blah. About as great as C++. Full of complicated features, all pretty much focused on nitpicking, not expressivity. Could become hipster stuff for small projects.
Enterprise? It's missing the point. There's no Machine Learning, no UI tools, no communications abstraction, no nothing. Just storage allocation without garbage collection.

Haskell will remain solid, but used by its aficionados. Rust will die as a niche language, and C/C++, sadly, will continue to dominate the low level coding, for better or for worse.
Python and JavaScript will fill the UI centric space of Enterprise, with Python largely owning data centric stuff, and JS owning phone/tablet UX.
Back when I was in school, I really hated Billboard Top 10 for the same reason. Once I've overheard them so many times, often unpleasantly, the actual song became unlistenable, not because I dislike them.
This is certainly my view as a physicist, although I'm not the greatest physicist by any measure. QM can give us a perfectly clear picture of "collapse", although it's not a trivial matter and it's hard to explain to laypeople. Especially when physics fans have these ideas about ~conscious observers collapsing the wavefunction~, or something.
A lot of hardware designed to support realtime applications will let you opt in or out of some of those features. So you have some ranges of memory that go through the usual cache hierarchy to off-chip DRAM, but you also have some memory that is directly mapped to on-chip SRAM that isn't a cache and therefore cannot suffer the latency penalty of a cache miss.

Stuff like branch prediction probably isn't too useful to implement as a switchable feature. Instead, the core is designed so that mispredict latency is still reasonably short (short pipeline, in-order execution or OoO with a short reorder window). This means you won't get as much benefit from speculative work as you would on a desktop-class core, but you're probably not going to be as vulnerable to Spectre-style attacks, either.
On mobile, do you also have to give to the app store 30% of $1 for each subscription?

There's no such requirement.
