There are already profiles for ISA configuration. But that is a feature not a bug.
At the low-level driver interface, transitioning ISA is a big deal. But I would guess that, at higher levels, most of the work is just changing the target of your compiler?

As in, most of the work occurs in the low-level parts of the Operating system. After that the OS should abstract the differences away from User-space.
In the short term it slightly reinforces the US's hand. I say 'slightly' because in fact the US already have power over ARM.

But longer term it creates a trend in which Armerican companies themselves will struggle in China. So what? Well, China will overtake the US so ultimately the US will have a disadvantage in the world's top market.

Edit: That's a key issue with the US's strategy with China, which seems to be focused on the short term (One might argue that they did the same mistake in Iraq in Afghanistan...) The point is that relations with China are a long game and China certainly plays a long game. The US need a long term plan and to accept that they cannot keep the top spot indefinitely.

> So now we believe that lawyers and judges act in good faith

No. In fact, I specifically listed instances where they didn't.
Thats because its a Tamil word.
That does not negate my argument though

My argument was:

> I believe that programming language has the power to push its user to write in a certain way

Not:

> I believe that programming language has the power to enforce its user to write in a certain way

In contrast, your argument here is more debunkable:

> You always write in same style, regardless of programming language.

You cannot ALWAYS write in the same style with disregard to your programming language choice. The black swan: Try writing GLSL and Haskell in the same style

I feel ambivalent about this kind of question. You might argue that it's required general knowledge, but relying on having read any one particular book seems arbitrary and a "gotcha" question.

Nothing surprising. The People's Republic China has least regard for data and privacy of their own citizen, they cannot respect the same for others. China doesn't respect sovereignty and borders of the countries. They do not honour any governmental agreements. Under CCP and Xi Jinping, China has become an imperialist state. There is no doubt that China today has emerged as biggest threat to the world peace. The Zhenhua data leak is just one of the proofs for China apologists. There are many more. recently a Chinese virologist claimed that coronavirus as engineered in a lab in Wuhan.

> The only reason why coal fired plants could be phased out is that the base load from industry is gone.

Nope. The whole point of electricity is that you don't need to care. When a gas plant comes on line - producing cheaper and cleaner power - it doesn't change anything about the actual electricity used in industry or how they use it.

If Britain needed 50GW of baseline power for a North covered in manufacturing plants in 2020, it would buy more gas power plants and maybe wind farms - not coal because coal is too expensive.
I can't agree here. Boards could have prepared (not spent) by splitting into preparation teams for all three eventualities, producing a plan for each scenario. In each case they could have gathered freely available resources (Youtube videos, websites!) for the associated and chosen technology set. They could have gathered and organized these items into something as free, and as simple as a Microsoft Word document - something they already have. This information could be passed upstream until such time that a decision was made. For those boards that had summer education hours, the time could have been allocated to familiarization with the learning materials and technologies.

I can heartily attest that even boards that were 100% planning on remote learning in April (I'm looking at you TDSB, YRDSB, TCSB in Toronto area) did literally none of this. How do I know - teachers all over the family, and my own efforts to literally help a private school board do this. I'd also note the private board spent zero dollars until the day before the first day of school.

It costs money to purchase things. It costs time to train people. But when you literally have the board "working" during the summer, and not on a curriculum, this is really just an indictment of an inability to organize.
> "the App Store has a spotty record of stopping malware from reaching your phone"

Source?

Apple's App Store has in fact a really good track record for stopping malware from reaching phones. Some mallware still got in, but AFAIK Apple has reacted promptly on discovery, and it would be a logical fallacy to conclude that their track record has been "spotty", and as implied, useless, because it isn't.

There are thousand of Windows PCs infected by botnet malware, per day.

Yes, if you'd remove the App Store, iOS devices would still be more secure because of the sandboxing. What Apple does however is a multi-layered approach to security. Which is why iOS devices are in fact the safest devices for consumers on the market.

You and I may not like it. I actually think Apple should allow third party sources, just like Android. But let's not pretend that there aren't security benefits to their App Store.
The reason we have consumerism, is because we have a middle class. Once people have the necessities of life sorted out, they figure out that there's actually lots of other stuff they want too. From that point, the only ingredient you're missing to reach consumerism is the desire to stand in judgement of others for wanting more frivolous stuff than you do.

The upside is that when mainlanders are upset, they can use their smarts to push forward RISC-V.

> South Korean chip industry officials and experts said that Nvidia’s Arm buy would intensify Nvidia’s competition with Samsung, Qualcomm and others in self-driving cars and other future technologies, while raising concerns that Arm could hike licensing fees for competitors.

Oh no, more competition! Maybe Samsung can ask its little brother, the South Korean government, to intervene.
> Trademarks are not limited to text, the gray and yellow color scheme is a Registered Trademark by Fluke

Absolutely, trademarks can be made in a wider variety of things, but in this particular case...

> Description of Mark: The mark consists of the colors dark gray and yellow as applied to the goods. The dotted outline of the goods is intended to show the position of the mark and is not a part of the mark.

> Color(s) Claimed: Color is not claimed as a feature of the mark.

Interpreting whether or not the gray and yellow color scheme is in fact a registered trademark seems... More difficult than just point to a form.

You can also look at how it influences you, like bad stress in making you unable to cope and can cause some mental health issues. At one point there can be just too much, in dog training that is called threshold and individuals have their own capacity.

I was hoping for a technology-focused discussion here, but I'll point out that China is at or near it's 21st century peak in terms of relative world power.

China is facing a massive demographic cliff (due to 35 years of the One Child Policy). It's been predicted for decades that "China will grow old before it gets rich" and it's way too late to change. From the 2030s onwards, China faces a massive elderly population and dwindling workforce.

The United States has favorable demographics for the next few decades and will certainly be able to keep parity with China. Admittedly the US has started developing issues around demographics (falling fertility rate, and falling immigration), but it's not as dire as China current situation.

The clause about not being read is a problem. A contract is assumed to be read. What to do with a clause saying it's not read? And the clause is the main point of the contract?

The whole thing is basically nonsense for lack of a better word. I can't imagine a court attempting to interpret the contract to enforce it. The title says it all "a joke software licence", they've succeeded at what they were trying to do.

The problem with plastic is that it doesn't rot. So if you leave it outside it's going to stay there for a long time and mess up nature. If you put it in a land fill it's not a problem. Paper is more energy intensive because plastic bags require very little plastic. Most of them weigh 5 grams.
There's a lot of friction when it comes to buying used (no warranty, no guarantees). Used doesn't necessarily mean it requires repair, but people often don't bother to re-sell things they aren't using and manufacturers have policies that try to destroy the used market (non transferrable warranties, planned obsolescence, etc).
What have confidence when we can just look at ARM financials?

There are more ARM chips sold each year than those of all its competitors together. Yet ARM's revenue is 300 million $.

Why? Because ARM lives from the ISA royalties, and their revenue on the cores they license is actually small.

With RISC-V on the rise, and west sanctions against china, RISC-V competition against ARM will only increase, and it is very hard to compete against something that's good / better and has lower costs (RISC-V royalties are "free").

I really have no idea why NVIDIA would adquire ARM. If they want a world-class CPU team for the data-center, ARM isn't that (Graviton, Apple Silicon, Fujitsu, etc. are built and designed by better teams). ARM cores are used by Qualcom and Samsung, but these aren't world-class and get beaten every gen by Apple Silicon. If they want ARM royalties, that's high risk business, and very low reward (there is little money to make there).

The only ok-ish cores ARM makes are embedded low-power cores (not mobile, but truly IoT < 1W embedded). Hard to imagine that an architecture like Volta or Ampere that perform well at 200-400W would perform well at the <1W envelope. No mobile phone in the world uses nvidia accelerators, and mobile phones are "supercomputers" when compared with the kind of devices ARM is "ok-ish" at.

So none of this makes sense to me, except if NVIDIA would want to "license" GPUs with ARM cores to IoT and low power devices like ARM does, but that sounds extremely far-fetched, because nvidia is super-far away from a product there, and also because the margins for those products are very very thin, and nvidia tends to like 40-60% margins. You just can have those when buying IoT chips for 0.12$. Its also hard to sell a GPU to these use cases because they often don't need it.

Thank you for digging that up! It makes a lot of sense, Nick is a wise man. I still feel like it's incredibly hard to quantify just how much a difference a discovery like this (if it indeed turns out to be microbial life) would make.

It took evolution on earth four billion years to result in a single civilization-capable species. The potential of filters along the way seem incomprehensible. And four billion years is a meaningful timespan even in astronomical terms.

And the intelligence part is also like an elephant in the room. Even given vertebrate creatures with nervous systems, we've had those for hundreds of millions of years. The secret sauce for advanced civilization is still only possessed by a single species, and not even it understands how it happened. How do you map a transition like that on a linear timeline of filters?

The "united" part was to prevent large, external states (initially, Great Britain) from taking away the liberty of each small state to live as its own citizens chose to live. The US Constitution was a mutual-defense pact meant to defend that liberty while, at the same time, defending the states from similar threats from one another. Most things in life would be state-based, where the citizens lived. Federal things were for state vs state, both internal and external, not state vs citizen.

The point of it was to defend the independence of small groups against the large. When local opinions changed about the "right" way to live, which history shows happens again and again, this system allowed the local group to change how they lived without requiring the "permission" of other states (internal to the union or external). If your own group (or you) changed, and you no longer liked your local state as much as some other where they made "better" choices, you would have the option to vote with your feet, as hundreds of millions have over the centuries. This system also attracted vast numbers of people from other places who chose not the "country" but the specific state that most suited them.

Using a voice assistant like Alexa isn't like wiretapping your home. It's introducing a powerful vector and risk for easily wiretapping your home, to be sure, but your phone is a vector for wiretapping your room (and your vicinity wherever you go), as is your laptop or desktop if they have microphones that aren't hardware disabled, as is your smart TV or remote if you have one. It's not effectively wiretapping your home, it's effectively making your home wiretappable, which isn't great but isn't the same thing.

It's all about the risk profile you're willing to accept. I personally have much more private information accessible through my phone, computer, and certain cloud accounts than I do from things I'm saying in my home, and I believe a malicious actor (potentially including a large corporation like Amazon or Google) would have a much easier time and/or would be much more likely to engage in tapping one of those sources than a voice assistant in my home.

It's certainly very possible - there was a recent story about how a malicious Alexa skill, if downloaded and installed, could siphon your entire voice history - but those sorts of risks also exist for almost any internet-connected device you own.

So, in my opinion and going by my own risk profile, those people responding "my phone's already compromised" are behaving rationally.
But Gmail was just Email with a counting Storage timer (which was really exiting at times where 30MB was a normal Free-mail quota).

And GCP...well nothing new after Heroku and Amazon.

It just feels that google is always two steps behind from new inventions, then they try to half heartily implement it, or buy another corporation. Google should sell itself for free to Elon (Joke...but also not really)
Chances of that are very slim.

But investigating this might uncover what is causing the confusion. Some other external force unknown to us might be at play.
Lol. Passive aggressive much?

> I didn't mean you are angry or upset etc, sorry I wasn't clearer.

Say what you think. You think I'm dumb cos I didn't take the point that you repeatedly made. That you think I'm the problem. Be honest! Stop couching.

> I didn't say that you "need to be right".

But, you did! You said: "Try to avoid the "I'm downvoted because I'm right" disease". I have a disease, in your opinion, and its that I'm right.

> You've repeated that you are happy to be corrected, "set straight". It just seems that you thought nothing I said was in the least bit helpful, so I never got to see that!

But I really don't find what you say helpful! Sorry.

If I have an argument or a discussion point, I'm free to state it. At least, I think I should be. I'm happy to engage with a rational argument, and present a case. And if my PoV is found wanting, I'll embrace truth and reality. But your 'answer' is that I internalise an external problem. Delete my comment say, to not make a fuss.

But no, I'm not going to give up on reason or rational thinking, because the majority thinks something other. I'm hear to learn and share knowledge. I'm confident in my line of thought, that its rational. I'm very far from internalising or quashing my rational thinking for the sake of offending the majority, who I happen to think are frequently in error.

And, by the way, the majority really can be in error. It may feel like a comfortable consensus is occurring here on HN. I'm saying that this could be on account of the management of the site - certain uncomfortable realities cannot be discussed. Living in a bubble is fine in a way, but absence of knowledge won't make reality go away. I'm hoping the scientific method may force you (and me) to accept reality, even if we may wish for something else.
> If I owned 1% of the company, after printing and handing out $40bn worth of stock, then I keep the same amount of stock, but now it's (e.g.) 0.5%, which means I just lost 50% of that investment. Which means I will receive 50% of the dividend

Well, you’re now getting 50% of the dividend produced by the new combined entity. If the deal was correctly priced, your share of the Arm dividend should exactly replace the portion of your Nvidia dividend that you lost through dilution.

I'm unlucky enough, but I started getting treatment in the last 12 months (I'm 37).

I have 12 months worths of tolls to pay for my cars, but because the organisation of who to register for tolls and where is so batshit insane in Australia, I just have a pile of toll invoices on my desk, and the reminders keep coming.

I don't regret who I am or what I've done, but since being diagnosed I have this niggling sense of sadness of how much unavoidable suffering I could have not endured had I been diagnosed earlier (despite all the signs being present for years and years).

I reckon if we had financial independence there'd still be a whole lot of 'ugh' though!
