What a fantastic opportunity for Amazon to divert the conversation away from the other glaring no-no's concerning this concept.

For instance, absolutely nobody has every said "I want to share my internet connection with my strangers". Don't you US folks have fairly strict data caps on your home connections also? I would imagine despite Amazon making all assurances that they apply data minimization and other principles to consume as little as possible, this would be a psychological barrier that cannot be punctured through.

I've always wondered why advances in 3D chips haven't taken advantage of nano-fluidics. One radical new chip design could be very micron-sized coolant pipes for wicking away heat. The "coolant" could perhaps be gallium for rapid heat transfer. Micro-valves could open/close as parts of the chip draw more power, pumping more fluid through them, and cooling them faster.

Every problem has a solution, we must be creative enough to discover & build it.

All framing has bias. That’s standpoint theory in four words. It’s entirely possible the NYT reporter working on the piece about CoinBase feels they are being scrupulously honest and that anyone who reviewed their notes, interviews and background work would come to the same conclusions they do in the article. Not everyone would actually agree. People have divergent experiences and beliefs and will come to different conclusions based on exactly the same evidence because their prior beliefs are different.

You should not have any full GC (pause) events, ever, in properly written production Java code.

Source: I worked on several extremely high performance Java systems at Sun and also worked optimizing various Java servers at subsequent jobs based on my Sun experience.

At one company (after Sun) I took on a backend service which was doing GC pauses every 3-5 minutes, the code was a dumpster fire mess. After cleaning things up we didn't hit a single full GC in two months of production use (they redeployed every two months so that's as long as the process lasted).

One could imagine to use 1 layer while the other is cooling, then switching when the current layer get too hot? But I guess the heat from 1 active layer would quickly propagate to the whole chip.

Or maybe using more transistors allow to run them at a lower power to complete the same work, which reduces the dissipated energy ?

As far as I know, dedicated HW versus CPU is closer to 1/100 the power. Although I admit I don’t have a source for this claim.

I don't think it would. It sounds more like each additional simultaneous spoon costs more effort than two spoons at different times.

Nope, same issue, it would absorb the energy and turn into a very low density plasma, blocking nothing. That is equivalent to very weak ablation shielding.

In fact, using a high-power laser to punch a hole in the atmosphere, essentially creating a functional vacuum by superheating the atmosphere in the beam path, is an old school engineering trick for exotic systems. Though in those cases, they tune the laser so that it gets absorbed by the atmosphere (similar to the gas you are suggesting). The use case is roughly analogous to employing supercavitation on torpedos.
One the one hand, I take some satisfaction when this kind of self-care housekeeping occupies my mind in times of distress, but on the other hand, the fact that my brain is so capable (and then some, unconsciously) doesn't necessarily imply that these are my brain's exclusive capabilities, and so the title (and the thesis) aren't usefully accurate.

> Brides traditionally wear predominantly red clothes for certain ceremonies during wedding.

This isn't common in south India (to my knowledge).

> Red, Yellow/Amber, and White are quite common during rituals in North.

Yellow is the one that stands out to me, and has religious connotations of purity and sacredness, but not red. (White too does, but for non-religious reasons, including associations with Khaddar and with Dhotis.)

(From another response:)

> All Goddesses wear red colored clothes

In my region, the colours change every day (or in some similar regular interval), and red isn't significantly more prominently used than others.

I can see a sort of link made via the Kumkum/Tika/Tilaka from red to purity, but honestly that would be a stretch and a pretty unlikely association for someone to make when encountering the colour.
Funny coincidence, I was just reading "Sphere" by Michael Crichton, and the zoologist in the novel was presenting the same argument about the the intelligence of octopuses.

But Abrahams righteousness was accounted to him by faith and not by works. The entire premise of the book of Hebrews is centered around the idea that Gods covenant with man has always been by grace.

Microfluidics is one of the most complex fields to commercialize a product in, and is littered with dead startups. The short answer is that the scale change changes the behavior of everything - pumps and flow just plain don't work the way they do at larger scales, and the forces created by surface tension and hydrophillicity become large relative to the strength of the mechanical parts.

For what? The Western world imports CPUs already (so no way for export controls), and China can design and manufacture their own CPUs.
It's like East and West Germany, or North or South Korea. Whether the opposing sides accept each others as separate states the key remains that they are split countries that will strive to reunify. In the case of China the split is massively unequal, which might give more ideas to the stronger side.

If anything the semiconductor industry is a result of this. Taiwan/ROC needed to develop to survive and it made its industry vital for the world, which make them important instead of simply a puny island off the coast of mainland China.

Having done both I agree with you. I find it's harder to write non idiomatic code that pretends to be another language than to just spend the time learning that other language.

But I get why people might feel it's worth a try, cpp probably looks more daunting than any other language to a novice. There's a lot of concepts to be mastered before you can write decent cpp, where in a lot of languages you can get started and discover things later. With cpp the abstraction gets very detailed. You might not even care what the difference between stack and heap, value or reference passing is in other languages.

Eg you can write python pretty intuitively and get a hash table as part of the language. If you're writing cpp you need to know how types work, how templates work, and how the STL containers work (allocators, traits, constness etc) just to save a simple hash table.
Fairy tales need to be a bit grimm (pun intended). They are supposed to teach about hardship and the difference between good and evil. You can only show the contrast if you actually have some evil to talk about.

Another child dying from hunger because he refuses to eat what his parents are putting on the table. Yes, not the most uplifting stories, but where I come from, everyone knows these stories, and almost everyone knows them since they are about 5.
I attribute most of my inset practicality to reading and rereading the unabridged version of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales. From those stories I learned so much about humanity, even though they are 'lighter' versions of the tales the very real consequences in the endings had an outsized impact on how I treated the world around me. Also, the Hans stories are a great example of showing kids that sometimes it's just pure dumb luck that people succeed and that has no bearing on the inherent worth of the person. I still have the copy I read as a kid plus a beautiful hardcover edition. They are books I treasure and go back to in a similar way that I peruse my philosophy books.

This is where I always hope a JVM will learn that, use escape analysis to keep things off the heap (they can do this), swap out data structures for more efficient ones for small amounts of data, or tune data structure initialization params (they can't do this).
The thing about Rust is that so many features are considered unstable and require switching to the nightly toolchain. That's just not suitable for real-world production use - yes, stuff does get stabilized eventually, but it takes time to really nail down the best possible design. Still, it's way better than the huge mess that is C++.
Yeah, basically everything has to be that way.

At the super fast speeds you start running into things like:

* why won’t the devirtualizer trigger?

* these object headers are sure wasting a lot of cache

* there’s a lot of forced pointer indirection

And you just end up spending vast amounts of time and effort trying to shave off those few microseconds you’re wasting in the JVM. Once you add in all the effort trying to get around the GC, it’s bleak picture for competing with quality C++ without spending far more effort.
Venus is like Earth the same way both a table and a cow have four legs.

From the announcement you read only the parts how Venus and Earth are similar, but not how they differ. The runaway effect was possible because Venus had less water, is closer to the Sun, and has no magnetic shield. The runaway effect you imagine on Earth needs significant changes in its chemical composition, in its mass, or its physical attributes like magnetic field and thermal input. Humanity is still far from doing something like that. Weight until we start building a cosmic mirror, have self-sustained nuclear reaction on a global scale, or build an earth spanning superconductor network with massive energy volume that would counter the magnetosphere.

Robinhood knows exactly what it's doing. They are democratizing options trading, which allows market makers like Citadel and G1X to collect premiums on a larger universe of assets with high volatility and large spreads.

A portion of the profits these market makers collect are rebated to RH, which, alongside cash sweep and RH Gold, comprise the bulk of their revenue.

RH makes money by keeping trade volumes and user engagement high. They don't care if you make or lose money on their platform, as long as the trades keep happening.
The worst (messiest, laziest and most chaotic) engineer I know works at a brokerage, coding obscenely large and unreliable edifices (and in a number of languages, from C++ to Excel+VB)... He does what he is asked, and doesn't worry about telling them what they need. They never demand code that doesn't crash, they see that as a fact of life, and developers are an overhead. Basically someone else owns the risk, the brokers don't, so why should he?

People who don't like this style (or the code) leave.

The direction for quality has to come from the top and be supported by systematic mechanisms. In fact that would be a question to ask in interviews.

absolutely. Few years ago i got back deep into C++ after 18 years of mostly Java, and i'm amazed, it is like travel back in time - we (a large C++ platform) are looping over vectors instead of using hashtables/maps, copying strings all the time (we have 4 major types of strings plus some minor ones), and don't get me started on multithreading and locking/synchronization - such an easy and natural thing in Java - even these days the people in C++ world is still seem to be hesitant to use locking and as result of that hesitance push themselves into a myriad of multithreading issues when they risk and/or are forced to use threads. It a sight to behold when a customer waits for that one core/thread to finish the operation on a 400 core 16TB RAM machine - if it were Java all the 400 cores would be burning, the performance would still feel kind of so-so, and the customer would be building up the nerve to upgrade to 800 core 32 TB :)

We can infer specific properties of the virtual particles. Mass, spin, charge among others, depending on what we’re talking about. If those properties match up with expectation, we consider this strong support of the theoretical formalism.

We can even measure more fancy stuff like virtual loop contribution to transition processes. This mostly works by measuring the transition probabilities with extreme precision, and then comparing it with higher-order theoretical predictions of the probabilities.
