I don't understand this _extremely_ common viewpoint: Intel has been putting out awesome fanless chips for Windows and ChromeOS for a couple years now, and Tiger Lake scores ~1400 single threaded/3700 multithread on 4 cores in GeekBench. M1 is __awesome__ but it's exactly what you'd expect from a Tiger Lake die shrink, which is coincidentally, the same die M1 is on.
* Exactly how is it much better? It's not the first chip with a 15-25W TDP. When compared to other chips with such a TDP, it's incrementally faster in single core and it trades blows in multicore. It does this at a process node ahead.*

Ok. Where can I buy a laptop with similar performance, battery life and cooling then?

The raspberry pi requires a very proprietary and custom boot process. Nothing can start until you first load the GPU driver blob on to the SoC.

This is why you need rpi specific distro builds.

Depends what you mean by hobbyist. PCIe-capable FPGAs are getting cheaper and cheaper, and there are plenty of devboards in a PCIe card form factor, just bring your own bitstream and I/O. Hell, you might be able to use the open source Yosys/NextPNR toolchain to target the Lattice ECP5's PCIe SERDESes some day [1].

Nothing prevents you from emulating, I don't know, an Intel PRO/1000 or RTL8169 on one of these boards, or rolling your own board design from scratch. All the datasheets are out there.

Seriously? You need a blob from Broadcom to even boot the thing, and you call that a no bullshit ARM setup? I am astounded.
Is it just me or is this literally the worst architecture idea that's popped up here? I've seen this done in a few large projects, including some extremely famous products, and it produced endless grief for the engineering team - and ultimately the organization. Among other things, it makes performance scaling much harder to achieve, makes software deployments really scary, and makes it almost impossible to migrate to a different database vendor.
It is true that it can be done. But I really don't think you want to.
Then isn't this antitrust behavior? Office, the file format, the desktop suit, and arguably the subscription definitely has an monopoly in the documents business. Microsoft is bundling teams , a separate product, with a dominanting product and including it for free. This is what is destroying slack. It seems like the common sentiment is that people use Teams because it's bundle with office 365, which they need for word, excel and powerpoint. But slack as a product is better than Teams. And people would pick slack if Teams and Slack has the same pricing. Honestly, I don't get why microsoft gets away from the recent anti trust scrutiny. The whole office 365 bundling. The bundling of dynamics with office 365. And bundling of azure, dynamics and office 365 with EA agreements is just so anti-competitive to me. More so than what apple is doing with the app store. Seems like microsoft just has the feel good, benovlent, "make everybody achieve more" PR branding. And it's just not in the general public's spotlight helped. But microsoft's bundling strategy is legit hurting smaller business software makers.

I feel like anti-monoploy law should be used to prevent this kind of bundle selling. And this is something that is actually easy to implement. And microsoft will still do well. The smaller competitors get equal footing. Microsoft's valuation and competitive moat will not change too much. Not to the point where it's not survivable.

And when microsoft bundles everything. It forces things like Slack bought out by salesforce happening. ISVs like slack can't compete on it's own, it also needs another ecosystem or bundling to survive. So it forces ISVs to be merged into other ecosystems and bundles and it create big companies each with their own bundles. For the consumers, it reduces choice, create more lock-in, and less freedom to be mobile between products. From economic standpoint, it creates a few big businesses that controls a lot of things and makes so much money they don't even know what to do with that money.

I would not consider this representative of any Dutch accent I've heard from living in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, or Nijmegen. Nor even for the strange Zeeland Belgian accents. This sounds like an odd Russian Dutch English combination.
The issue for my Slack workspaces is that they are not noisy. So what happens is, people (inadvertently?) make threads, which then turns off notifications about that conversation for everyone else, therefore taking them out of the loop. And because the room is not noisy, they may not notice that they've missed the conversation until hours or even days have passed.

The minute you start to critique it, you kind-of destroy the magic of it. But having said that, for a certain class of people, this stuff is great, and for others its neutral, and for a smaller third, its toxically bad, and they wind up going postal.

I guess, we're all different except we're all kind of the same. Some people read fiction, some people create it, and some people live it. Some people do all three.

> This is a reasonable problem to teach students about for like 1 week at age ~10.

I'm afraid you have a completely unrealistic expectation of the median student (which is reflected in your other comments as well). I have taught hundreds of students and I would think a handful of them could answer this at age 10.

This type of question first appears on the Khan Academy in Grade 7, i.e. targeted at 12-13 year-olds.

There is a significant body of prerequisite work in the earlier grades, some of which is limited by what is developmentally appropriate.

Students will need dedicated practice to recall this and most won't remember it after seeing it or mastering it on one occasion. It needs to be supported in the rest of the curriculum. You might be able to intensively teach it earlier, but it is hardly worth it, because they will completely forget when you intensively teach the next topic.

Many 15-year-olds will continue to struggle with this and, if they are well-supported, might be taught it as a step-by-step procedure in order to best score marks in the exam they need to. These students are unlikely to finish without a good concept of what they were doing - and might be more likely to pick it up as adults out of necessity.
> * the x86 world resolves around standards such as ACPI, BIOSes and general-purpose dynamic buses.

> exceptions to the above include i2c (unusual, and taken care of by i2c-sensors, which uses good heuristics to "probe" devices from userspace) and the ISA bus and its derivatives such as Compact Flash and IDE. even PCMCIA got sufficient advances to auto-identify devices from userspace at runtime.

> so as a general rule, supporting a new x86-based piece of hardware is a piece of piss. get datasheet or reverse-engineer, drop it in, it's got BIOS, ACPI, USB, PCIe, SATA, wow big deal, job done. also as a general rule, hardware that conforms to x86-motherboard-like layouts such as the various powerpc architectures are along the same lines.

> so here, device tree is a real easy thing to add, and to some extent a "nice-to-have". i.e. it's not really essential to have device tree on top of something where 99% of the peripherals can describe themselves dynamically over their bus architecture when they're plugged in!

> now let's look at the ARM world.

> * is there a BIOS? no. so all the boot-up procedures including ultra-low-level stuff like DDR3 RAM timings initialisation, which is normally the job of the BIOS - must be taken care of BY YOU (usually in u-boot) and it must be done SPECIFICALLY CUSTOMISED EACH AND EVERY SINGLE TIME FOR EVERY SINGLE SPECIFIC HARDWARE COMBINATION.

> * is there ACPI present? no. so anything related to power
management, fans (if there are any), temperature detection (if there is any), all of that must be taken care of BY YOU.

> * what about the devices? here's where it becomes absolute hell on earth as far as attempting to "streamline" the linux kernel into a "one size fits all" monolithic package.

> the classic example i give here is the HTC Universal, which was a device that, after 3 years of dedicated reverse-engineering, finally had fully-working hardware with the exception of write to its on-board NAND. the reason for the complexity is in the hardware design, where not even 110 GPIO pins of the PXA270 were enough to cover all of the peripherals, so they had to use a custom ASIC with an additional 64 GPIO pins. it turned out that that wasn't enough either, so in desperation the designers used the 16 GPIO pins of the Ericsson 3G Radio ROM, in order to do basic things like switch on the camera flash LED.

Good Article on String similarity.

There are two ways to look at currency (fiat or otherwise):

- Medium of exchange

- Store of value

Fiat currency has utility for both. If crypto was more widely accepted by merchants (thereby satisfying bullet point #1) then this certainly changes the game. But it's not.

Comparing both in their current capacities is disingenuous.
Back in the 1970s I used a slide rule when 2-3 place accuracy was enough; or 5-place or 7-place log tables and a pocket mechanical adding machine (rather than by hand) when more accuracy was required.

I found a 2-minute video of the sort of pocket adding machine I used,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryST18JJ7VU
(The device is actually easier to use than shown. Using the colors next to the digits: if silver, pull the stylus down; if red, pull up and over the curve at the top of the column to the next digit. No extra or wasted motions are needed.)

Five places were usually enough, but seven places were needed for some astronomical calculations such as eclipses. The $7 I paid for the log tables in the late 1960s would purchase about $50 today; and the adding machine was probably a couple of dollars back then.
How much does a 3080 cost? Could you build a complete computer around one for $1000?
That's not intrinsic value though. Fiat currency by definition has no intrinsic value. Fiat literally means "let it be done", i.e. it is given value by a decree and not because of its intrinsic value.
That's a popular misconception. It is just the shape of the API that makes them look alike, other than that they are fundamentally different at this point. We've put so much effort into Playwright during the last year, probably 3x we put into Puppeteer itself!
Is Intel really so blind that they didn't see this coming or even have detailed inside info about it?

I would wager that they knew, but execs chose to protect their personal short term interests overt those of the company and its long term shareholders. This is typical modern US publicly traded company behavior.

The current title reads "Mesa 20.3 released with out-of-the-box support for [whatever GPU]"

Can someone expand on why Mesa needs to "support" specific GPUs?

I thought that supporting hardware under Linux was a kernel matter, and assumed that Mesa was an OpenGL implementation for Linux, so talking to kernel APIs in a hardware-independent way (since talking to the hardware is a kernel matter).

Where am I wrong? What does "support for GPU xyz" mean in Mesa's case? Thanks.
Where in "X-first programming" does that constraint come from? What seems to have happened here is that you read "purpose-first programming", inferred that it's a methodology for developing software, and then started insisting that the responsibility for your taking that leap is someone else's fault, instead of yours.

"Purpose-first programming" makes as much sense as "literate programming".

You're missing the point. I'm not trying to argue about which system is better, I'm just saying that the comment I'm replying to is saying incorrect things about GPU performance. I'll answer your question anyway though:

You could build a complete desktop system including a GPU that's more powerful than the one in the M1 for ~$1000, but certainly not a 3080. They're very expensive, and nobody has any in stock anyway.

An RX 580 or 1660 would probably be the right GPU with that budget. (Although you could go with something more powerful and skimp out on CPU and ram if you only cared about gaming performance).
