it is true for any culture where there is visible poverty. and where there is a stark scarcity of any particular resource that will make survival difficult.

for example, if you go to the middle east, they are very generous with food. poor feeding is part of islam. bedouin hospitality is a thing. in the old testament, there are stories too as nomadic communities set up their tents around water. because in a desert, if you are lost and you dont have the generosity of strangers, you will die.

in india/hinduism, the day starts with feeding the crows, dogs, cows, birds..and then the poor and hungry. even the ghosts and spirits of ancestors are fed. god is fed and because stone doesnt eat, the rest of us partake communally.

poverty has become invisible in today's world. especially the modern world. and you dont think that someone is hungry if they are wearing fancy shoes and has an iPhone. that makes you clench your palms tighter. so in america, they will send money to africa while your neighbour is probably starving.

also: food is so plentiful these days..and cheap. people go hungry because they dont know how to cook. at least in the western world. the other day, someone told me that children are in poverty and starving because all they had was vegetables and beans. i was dumbstruck. thats a feast to this vegetarian indian. you have milk, vegetables, rice and beans..thats a veritable feast!

so i offer food to those who are experiencing poverty of culinary knowledge too. they are hungry because they were never taught the most important survival skill of all..cooking.
On Linux, it's already a NVMe driver option to enable polling for (high priority) IO completion rather than sleeping until an interrupt. The latency of handling an interrupt and doing a couple of context switches is higher than the best-case latency for fast SSDs. The io_uring userspace API also has a polling mode.
The performance on particularly memory-bound workloads is why I chose it as an example rather than a prediction.

For it to work statically (although it really could be halfway in between), it would probably require a complete paradigm shift away from the current way we think about cpu caches

Regardless of whether it'll work or not, I'll be very happy if the mill ever makes it onto a chip.

Strict comparison operators have been considered best practice since well before 7.0
Agreed, it mostly sounds like more contrivances for surveillance capitalists to make money.
In London if you give some homeless people food they'll either throw it away or curse you out for not giving money.
I've used non, I like it and I like the idea, I wasn't really a fan of the ui though. I used non-sequencer for a bit but ended up switching to muse and rosegarden before Ardour got midi. I find it almost a bit too modular. I do like the idea of having ardour as an end point for various things.

I tend to sequence and record audio into ardour then do some processing and mixing there.

Then I'll mixdown in ardour then patch that track through jamin into a new ardour track for mastering.

I find that setup still gives me flexibility while having a sort of centralized 'master console' or something.

> then could AMD produce an 'x86 version' of the M1 on TSMC 5nm using Zen3 and successors

I mean, they could, but the A12Z in the devkits, produced on TSMC's 7nm process, also showed very impressive results. It's not clear how much gain the M1 is getting from 5nm, but I'd be _extremely_ skeptical that it's the whole story, especially given limited improvements between the directly comparable A13 (7nm) and A14 (5nm, some microarch changes).

> Plus there is the deeper integration with Apple's software.

This is relevant to some OS niceties (eg the disconcertingly instant wakeup and resolution shifts) but should have no bearing on, say, SPECInt2017.
That isn’t what that does.
As a “generalist”, the way I’ve been able to “sell myself” is to develop a reputation for:

- Distinct talent in problem identification/discovery (i.e. see problems other people miss before they cause pain)

- Consistently producing designs that address the core problem in a general but extensible/flexible way (i.e. design to solve a class of problems rather than a particular one)

- Deliver [r]evolutionary value (i.e. produce solutions which amplify/multiply the value the rest of the team can deliver)

- Being confident out of the spotlight (i.e. trusting that my contributions will be valued and recognized by my peers and leadership even if it doesn’t show up in end user release notes or investor decks)

All of that adds up to my career increasingly being focused on library development, process optimization, tooling, plumbing, etc. It’s personally more gratifying to me than a lot of shiny feature work, and it improves the lives of my teammates and in turn the work they can produce.

It adds a lot of weight for not a lot of benefit, on either side. A pure-electric drive gives amazing benefits in torque and latency reduction, but the motors on MHEVs and even PHEVs don't give enough "oomph" to justify the complexity, the cost, or the added weight.

I happen to be consulting for a few large companies that do massive data operations (in the petabyte scale), and I can tell you that “cloud spend” is generally treated as one big blob of money. They don’t really look too much into the details, as the people who care about this (the purchasing department) rarely knows what’s actually driving the costs.

As such, the insane pricing of storage on the clouds rarely comes on the radar, unless you have a “competent” company (I know the fintech companies generally are more clueful about this).
Demand exceeds supply so I’m expecting prices to remain high for a while yet.

I would add a new drive with zfs mirroring and enable simple compression. For most use cases it gets better read performance, ok write performance, and can tolerate both of the drives being a bit flaky so you can run it for a lot longer than the new drive alone.

> it's really int + array or string + file_descriptor, things like that

I haven't personally used PHP in years, but was curious about this. Based on some quick/dumb experiments it appears int + array has thrown errors as far back as PHP4:

No one genuinely has an answer to this?

I get that we’re talking about Haskell here which is compiled. But why wouldn’t we talk about running the code through unit tests.

For example the article talks about given function that requires a number that must be between one and five... and then goes on to specify specific grammar rules.

How is that better than simply typing that up in a test.

And by simply running test suites you eliminate issues with bugs in your parser system.

What am I missing?
I'd love to see lists like this from more high-profile programmers. What does John Carmack not know? What does Dan Bernstein not know? What does Bryan Cantrill not know?
According to the Preface (see page v):

Of course, I can't vouch for its success, but the issue was at least considered.
Does it make sense to compare residential internet here? You might be paying for 1Gbps, but you're not guaranteed to actually get it. At a congested time your speeds might be much lower.

Business internet connections usually are guaranteed. They also cost several times more though.

If you work from home, then could your ISP tell you to get a business connection if you use too much bandwidth?

> 5) Forge -- basically Blaze's remote build execution (what Bazel calls RBEs). Almost every build at Google is extremely parallelized, and if you need to run flake tests, running a suite of tests 10,000 times is almost as fast as running it once.

This is available outside Google now - start at https://github.com/bazelbuild/remote-apis or https://docs.bazel.build/versions/master/remote-execution.ht... . It's a standardized API, supported by a growing set of build tools (notably Bazel, Pants, Please) with a variety of OSS and Commercial implementations. At this point almost anyone can set up Remote Execution if they wish to, and remote caching is even easier.

Minor terminology correction: RBE generally refers to Google's own implementation of the same name; Remote Execution (RE) and the REAPI are used to refer to the generic concept.

(Disclaimer: I work on this at Google.)

No it doesn't. Perhaps constantly forcing your subjective interpreted and implied meaning on everyone else is the root of the problem.

They have their own extensions, but having a mainstream desktop platform that runs on ARM will certainly be a push for compilers and software to have better support for ARM in general. For example, right now Docker ARM images are basically an afterthought and if something doesn't work in the ARM version a maintainer might just shrug their shoulders and view ARM as a niche use case. With a critical mass of ARM desktops that will no longer be the case.

This is true of a second-generation hybrid, like the BMW i3 (with range extender). A first-gen hybrid, which is most hybrids (including the Infiniti QX60, the BMW 3-series (not i), the Mercedes E-class) still power the wheels primarily with the gas engine, and only use the electric engine in certain reduced circumstances. With the gas engine directly driving the wheels, you don't get a lot of benefit from the hybrid except in start-stop conditions.

If you broadcast the game, that's not just facts but playing audio that someone records. Just telling the result or current state, sure, that's just data - but I never heard that there's a license for that.
A civil engineer will put their stamp on the design of a bridge certifying that it will not fail. If it does fail, they will be held responsible and may lose their license to practice.

Software engineers often hide behind a contract saying they aren't responsible for anything.
I understand the concern but it is not based on comparable data.

A few things to take into account:

- The 67℅ in the test in 2016 for the Peugeot 3008 is based on a Pedestrian Impact performance.

- The 56% of the test in 2019 for Peugeot 208 is based on a Pedestrian Impact Performance _and_ ADAS pedestrian detection +Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) performance

An important point with Euro NCAP is that typically the tests are always getting harder year on year to account for the expected technological development. Such that the same car would progressively score less if it were to repeat the Euro NCAP test year on year.

I hope this helps your concern.

In 'standard height' cars the first impact is usually on lower limbs or torso and secondary trauma to the head will happen on the bonnet or windshield.

In SUV's, pedestrian and cyclists are much likely to suffer head trauma on first impact.

My point is, in the horrific scenario that this should happens the survival rate will always be higher for non-SUV vehicles (ideally with longer bonnets and pedestrian friendly deformable structures).
Org-wide instead of company-wide, maybe?
Well...the article says:

"If you have an unlimited amount of time and resources, the best solution for speed will be coded in FPGA," says Lawrey, referring to the language that directly codes field-programmable gate arrays. "If you still have a lot of time and resources and you want to create multiple exchange adaptors, you'll choose C++. - But if you want to engage with 20+ exchanges, to go to market quickly, and implement continuous performance tuning, you'll choose Java."
I know their network varies greatly from market to market but, in my experience across 3 markets and 15 years, they always delivered what they advertised. That's not to say the prices were fair or the speed was good, just that it was what was sold.

At one point I was running 4 Nest Cameras that were uploading to the cloud at a constant 27mbps. I was running a Unifi Gateway and religious compared my bandwidth consumption with what Comcast reported and they always erred on under reporting.

Their data caps a complete bullshit though designed to extract revenue from anyone who wasn't a cable tv subscriber.
The worst part of all this, is that the people attempting to control this information and suppress what they don’t like for now don’t see how it will turn around on them.

But by that time it will be too late to raise the alarm.

It's still pretty easy to DOS the server that is passing requests to PHP.

The 'shared nothing' approach has other benefits though - primarily not having to concern yourself with concurrency issues or shared memory resources. You can dive in to deep PHP and do that, but it's not something beginners need to be thinking about.
Tossing a Bird That Does Not Fly Out of a Plane (2018)
Wow, that Wordpress blog is bad. I have seen a lot of projects add support for PHP 8 in recent weeks and they were all kind of easy. Mostly waiting for upstream packages to be ready.

You get nice warnings for years about stuff to fix. If you ignore them because that is easier, there comes a point where it is so bad that you cannot recover.

I know the Wordpress codebase is nasty. But how and when are they going to fix these things? It is going to be so hard.
It's hard to overstate how many shells were fired on the western front during the war. It's estimated that about a tonne of ordnance was fired per square meter of the front. An absolute gobsmacking amount of ordnance was fired, not even including small arms and grenades.

Unfortunately, a huge percentage of those shells just ... didn't go off. As many as 1/3rd of them failed to detonate and embedded themselves deep in the mud. To this day there are areas in France that are completely off limits to everyone, both due to the unexploded ordinance and the amount of toxins those areas. Even outside of those areas there is a a process known as the "Iron Harvest", where local farmers will dig up artillery shells regularly; there is usually an official process for where farmers put these shells for regular disposal.
Agree that they couldn't match - but if they got within say 15% on performance and battery life would that be good enough?

I think the software integration goes a bit further than wake-up etc e.g. they seem to have speeded up handling of reference counting through architectural changes (not sure I could explain how though and even Apple's software engineers seem a bit in the dark!)
Some of those stories can be very imaginative (See Abner Louima).
What excites me is if you're working down at the high frequency, low latency I/O domain... linux traditionally has actually sort of sucked.

We're _very_ good at buffering things up and handling large chunks to gain high throughput. We have layers and layers of magic that make us _very_ good at that.

For cases where you have lots of devices throwing small chunks at high frequency and you have to respond (in this one, do a small computation, and out that one...) we've sucked bad.

That's why bare metal RTOS's still exist.

The io_uring / eBPF combo looks _very_ promising for opening up that domain in a tidy fashion.

I also hope there will be no reason to throw away "heaps and mounds of existing and perfectly working code and solutions".

I hope to replace my finely tuned epoll / read/write reactor pattern inner loop with io_uring / eBPF and leave 99% of the code untouched... just better throughput / lower latencies.
That's a good idea. We have created one educational timeline on US presidents (https://www.chronoflotimeline.com/timeline/shared/3114/USA-P...) but could do with creating a lot more.
