> show that their argument belittling the BLM protests was correct.

David Shor has not, to my knowledge, ever made an argument belittling the BLM protests. I welcome any links you have that might demonstrate otherwise.

> how wrong it is to blame the protests for violence often instigated by the police

Neither Shor, nor the researcher he linked, Omar Wasow did this.

> how there is evidence that the protests strongly helped the Democrats.

Neither Shor nor Wasow have, to my knowledge, suggested that the protests were net negatives for Democrats. You have constructed a series of strawmen.
That's not true as far as I can see. Which other states are you talking about? Are you confusing party registration with vote, maybe? Are you correcting for ballot return rate, which itself was very different between registrations?
Thank you for clarifying, OP's original comment refers to TimescaleDB vs InfluxDB hence the comparison blog between the two.

As you note, a comparison between InfluxDB IOx and TimescaleDB is not possible at this time, due InfluxDB IOx being still under development and unavailable for comparison, so that blog is the next best thing for developers looking for answers today.
A normal SRAM cell takes 6 transistors. 6 * 8 * 1024 * 1024 * <total_mb> is a big number.

Next, SRAM doesn't scale like normal transistors. TSMC N7 cells are 0.027 nanometers while MY cells are 0.021 (1.35x). meanwhile, normal transistors got a 1.85x shrink.

I-cache is also different across architectures. x86 uses 15-20% less instruction memory for the same program (on average). This means for the same size cache that x86 can store more code and have a higher hit rate.

The next issue is latency. Larger cache sizes mean larger latencies. AMD and Intel have both used 64kb L1 and then move back to 32kb because of latencies. The fact that x86 chips get such good performance with a fraction of the L1 cache points more to since kind of inefficiency in Apples design. I'd guess AMD/Intel have much better prefetcher designs.
> why does drift happen _well after_ in-person vote is already counted?

Where is the evidence for this? Most states weren't particularly clear about exactly which ballots were being counted when, and didn't report distinct ballot cohorts. The GA data (where they were really good about it after Tuesday) doesn't show the effect you're talking about.

[edit: OK, you're just repeating this point without evidence again and again in this topic, despite being repeatedly asked for a citation. That doesn't seem like rational discussion, and I suspect you're just being a troll.]
Just sent you an email and would like to know more about it. Thanks.
Thing is, you're looking at this backwards, from a position of "doing something must be better than doing nothing." Frequently, it's not. The onus here should be on the multivitamin to prove that it is effective, not for study authors to prove that it does nothing. If you actually dig around you won't find studies that show multivitamins are effective at anything for your average westerner -- or anyone who isn't clinically malnourished for that matter. That's not to say that - in certain cases, when you're lacking a specific vitamin - it won't help manage a specific condition, but scattershot "essence of food" has very little data to support it's efficacy.

More vitamin doesn't mean better health. Water soluble vitamins saturate in your body, and the excess is excreted in urine. Fat soluble vitamins, however, build up, and taking more than you need may lead to various kinds of poisoning (particularly A, D, B3 and B6 [3]).

Generally speaking if you're not eating 100% of your meals at McDonalds, you're getting all the vitamins you need from your diet and more vitamins is at best neutral and at absolute worst fatal.

Here's a study from 2011 that shows no decrease in all cause mortality, no decrease in cancer risk [1]. Here's one that shows all cause mortality was 5% higher in multivitamin takers [2].

How would you describe what it is then?
Parquet is the persistent storage format for when the data is written to disk or object storage. Arrow is the in-memory format and a set of tools built around working with it.

So InfluxDB IOx will use both, Arrow in-memory for fast access, and Parquet on storage for persistence.

> Why is it that we find it appropriate to shame her and not a founder/ceo who does effectively the same thing?

In the case of Halloween candy, the owner of the candy is offering each person up to a few pieces of candy for free. If you take more than a few pieces, you are stealing from the candy owner. Stealing is bad because we believe in the right to private property. Stealing is, in fact, illegal. Of course, our legal system isn't set up to enforce punishment for small actions, so shame is a useful alternative form of punishment.

> Why can we not apply these same rules of decency to business?

In the case of employment, each employee is offering the business owner his/her time in exchange for a salary and equity. The expectations are crystal clear to both parties. When the business owner sells the company, taking his fair share of the purchase price (as determined by his equity stake) is NOT stealing. Nor, is it breaking any norms or expectations.

> By spreading the fruits of successful innovation more broadly you put the people who enabled that innovation in a position to use that experience to innovate further

I actually agree with this specific point for an isolated case. That is, in isolation, spreading the purchase price for a huge acquisition evenly across the employee base would probably lead to greater innovation.

However, this only makes sense in isolation. If you make it common practice to share acquisition price more evenly among employees, you destroy the financial incentive that drives much of entrepreneurship.

Startups are very risky, and without a huge payout for success at the end, the expected values just don't work out anymore. Smart engineers will be much better off applying for a traditional FANG job. In fact, this is already the case! What you're proposing would just make the math even worse. Remember, for every success case like this, there are 4 or more founders who failed. There better be a sweet reward at the end of the tunnel to keep them motivated to keep trying!

Furthermore, for small acquisitions like this, even if you were to split his 3.7M payday across his 20 employees, each person gets $18.5K. Hardly an amount that would spur innovation.

The problem with astroturf accusations is that they are all flamebait (even if true), off-topic meta noise (the point stops being discussed in favor of the commenters), and worst of all unfalsifiable (how do you prove you're not a shill?).

>Most people I know voted Republican were low-wage working people

Because Republicans put more money back in the pockets of low wage workers with kids. Most people don't have the luxury of voting along idealistic lines, they vote based on finances out of necessity.

Low-wage workers with children were those most hurt by the Obama's ACA Mandate penalty tax, piled on top of not being able to afford health insurance. Republicans removed that ACA penalty plus doubled the child tax credit. People who afford health insurance are out of touch with this segment of people.
Need to know what's type of water the people at Xerox Palo Alto were drinking.

They pioneered many groundbreaking and game changing works on computing including (but not limited to) windowing desktop environment, integrated programming/structural editor with CEDAR/Tioga, SQL (team moved to Oracle), Ethernet networks, laser printer, VLSI and Jupiter operational transform for distributed computing (precursor to CRDT). Each of this technology is now an industry of its own.
> Not all geekbench scores are created equal. Comparing ARM and x86 scores is an exercise in futility as there are simply too many factors to work through. It also doesn't include all workload types.

The meme of saying that Geekbench is not a useful metric across cores, or that it is not representative of real-world usage, and therefore cannot be used needs to die. It’s not perfect, it can never be perfect. But it’s not like it will be randomly off by a factor of two. I’ve been running extremely compute-bound workloads on both Intel and Apple’s chips for quite a while and these chips are 100% what Geekbench says about them. Yes, they are just that good.
This is stupefying to me. Like, when Anand did the A12 or A11 reviews, I wrote:

"The craziest thing is how close [to 1/56th of a Xeon 8176] they get at 3W. That's the part that's staggering. What could Apple do with, say, laptop thermals? Desktop thermals? The mind creeps closer to boggling." -- me, 5 October 2018

>Real competition for Intel

Moderation is the hardest, most subjective problem on the internet today. Plus, it doesn't scale well. Part of me wonders if the way we design the forums themselves lend itself to this problem. Is there a way to design forums so that the need for moderation is lessened or unneeded? I think the answer is no, but I'd like to think it's yes.
I have been very tempted to get one of those. Two reasons I haven't yet:

- It's a Type B card, and apparently most devices refuse to operate with Type B cards as FIDO2 authenticators: https://github.com/LedgerHQ/ledger-u2f-javacard/issues/12

- I'd otherwise like to use it as a GPG card, but it's unclear if NFC-only GPG cards work with desktop gnupg. Maybe they do and I'm just missing the documentation for it.
It is! It's happening right now in NY and CA, which (being big, lazy, and mostly single-party) count their ballots like mollases. Biden's lead there has been steadily and inexorably climbing. And this despite the fact that they are neither swing states nor Virginia.

Can I flip the question around: can you show me a state with late mail ballot counting that is not trending toward Biden? The only exception I can think of is AZ over the past few days, but they're processing primarily provisionals in red counties at this point. The blue counties are done.

Edit: or alternatively, why is Arizona not evidence of fraud by Trump, given that it counted up very rapidly to Biden, leveled off when the early vote was complete, and then began processing different ballots that skewed differently. CLEARLY Trump is cheating with those provisionals, right?

The whole thesis is just silly. Different counties count at different rates. Different populations vote by different mechanisms, and the reported vote over time is an essentially random walk within that space. There's no mechanism by which you'd expect a consistent rate of margin growth. It doesn't even make sense.
That is simply not true. Ethnic minorities in china get preferential treatments when it comes to college admission, job placement, they are also exempted from the one child policy. Of course you wouldn't know that because that doesn't fit the western narrative of chinese oppression of minorities
No, but that's not relevant. Their x86 to ME graphic shows all the things merging together.

The point is that it's mostly Apple's fault to begin with. They choose to use outdated processors without integrated thunderbolt. They chose to add their massive A10 die instead of a normal, optimized SSD controller (not to mention this screws over data recovery and SSD replacement). They are exaggerating at best about RAM as the chips merely sit beside the core. The only thing they should really claim is the IO die and even that's nothing too special.
So, he substracts % of split votes from % of straight party votes, and he expects a different curve?? :-)

I would’ve loved if someone asked him to do the same plot for Biden... just to look at his face when he would see the graph :-)

> I followed a lot of economists (ie Robert Reich, Krugman, etc) thinking they would post interesting economics related content.

I think you have to stop following famous people like those guys, and instead follow up-and-coming economists and other scientists and bleeding edge researchers/builders, who are working hard to make a name for themselves with novel research in some interesting area.

Those are more likely to keep their Twitter feed focused on their research, rather than off-topic tweets, rants, political advocacy and "influencer" stuff people do once they become famous.

Also, the community of people who engage with them tend to be similarly focused, so you can find more high S:N folks to follow in their discussions.

If you curate your Twitter feed to just those types, you get a very high S:N ratio there.

On the NVidia A100, the standard FP32 performance is 20 TFLOPs, but if you use the tensor cores and all the ML features available then it peaks out at 300+ TFLOPs. Not exactly your question, but a simple reference point.

Now the accelerator in the M1 is only 11 TFLOPs. So it’s definitely not trying to compete as an accelerator for training.

Regarding Fedora's Firefox: The Fedora Firefox mainainers, Martin Stransky and Jan Horak, are also the main maintainers of the Linux/GTK parts of Firefox. The VAAPI patches you've mentioned are (afair) mostly-if-not-all Martin's work. So he's not applying some rando's "untested" patches.
The biggest problem in anything controlled centrally, be it big government or big tech, lies in the fact that those who want power will try to gain control over that.

Similar to Facebook and Twitter, Parler has many single point of failures:

- it is hosted somewhere

- the domain name is provided by some company

- the apps are allowed to be installed as long as Apple and Google aren't forced to remove it

- they have to rely on sponsors or donors to sustain

- they have some form of payment providers

- they are run by a relatively small group of people

If any of the above are compromised, they can be forced to either go down or blackmailed to be a copy of Twitter or Facebook.

So, it is over-optimistic to believe that the new free speech platform will come in this form. It will have to be much more resilient than this.
You're confusing CPU and memory pressure, and attributing blame to the wrong component.

There was a now-deleted reply about a previous submission of mine discussing how the Belt and Road Initiative is a symptom of overaccumulation of capital that can't find a productive use (within China, anyways, hence the expansion abroad): https://pandapawdragonclaw.blog/2020/02/28/looking-at-the-be...

I guess the author deleted their comment because it was kind of off-topic, but I just realized that it's actually somewhat on-topic since that overaccumulation of capital is another aspect of what Ma refers to with "Too much money can get you into a lot of trouble." although his example is about banks desperate to make loans to companies that don't need more money.
