Whether CPU and GPU share ram is orthogonal to whether the gpu and cpu are on the same die. You can do any combination of same die same ram, different die same ram, etc etc.

The advantage of GPU having it's own memory is you can use super high throughput ram that the GPU needs, while using higher capacity/lower energy/cheaper ram for the cpu.

The downside of using separate ram is that you have to shuttle data back and forth from one ram to the other quite a bit, as well you get less flexibility in how your total memory is used.

I'd say that the fact that you think something thrown together in notepad 20 years ago can be comparable to modern web technologies just shows how little you understand what exactly modern web tech does or why it's useful.
Consistency for readability is a virtue; did you miss that part?

And it's not about "gating" development with "personal preferences", what a strawman. If someone can't be bothered to run the formatting tool included in the repo on their code before submitting, then I can't be bothered to review their submission.

Yes, exactly what I said. Again, did you miss that?
SF could've been a modern metropolis if the state and local government had effectively taken advantage of their tech boom.

Instead, the NIMBYs and their passionate hatred for any change or growth led to a bottleneck in progress. New housing construction has been anemic at best, and Prop 13 has starved local budgets (especially schools).

So they took the economic/innovation powerhouse of tech and squandered it with absurd housing costs and an inability to pay civil servants adequately.

To all the SF locals who regularly pushed for these things, you reap what you sow, and all the damage to SF is on you.
Lack of widespread adoption provides circumstantial evidence that a technology might not be ready or practical yet.

I tried "flying shuttle" and Akinator completely flubbed it. For characters, "Thomas Cranmer" also really mystified it.

Some of the questions I'm staring at trying to figure out what the answer it expects is. "Is your character British?" is hard to answer for Thomas Cranmer, since while he is English, he lived at before the Scottish king inherited the English throne, let alone the Act of Union that created Great Britain. Or for the flying shuttle, "does it move?" left me with a response of "what do you mean by 'move'?"
If the battery life is the main point, why were thinkpads with slice batteries and powerbridge ("up to 30 hours" in 2018) not more successful?

I think it is more about the fact that apple successfully makes things "mainstream". For instance, the air form factor had been done before by Sony (and those even had hires screens), but only got popular after the air.

There is a lot of creativity going on with video. Especially in the budding genre of "fashion film", which is kind of reinventing the art of film to have less narrative and more visuals. To me, it feels like (what I imagine) the early days of film felt like.

Anything specific?

One guess I'd have is that an influx of new people creates that anti-housing response anywhere which can lead to some of the same problems. I suspect that's less about CA policy and more about bad incentives around housing being an investment in the US.

If you mean that most people from CA don't like Trump (or the Republican support/defense of him), then yeah I think you're probably right about that (but that's not really CA policy). A lot of people I work with are more center or center-right than the general narrative about Californians would have you believe, I'd suspect those leaving to be more from that camp.
Called gas company after 3 months of dealing with rental Company. I had no idea that was even a thing. It’s a free check.

The past several mornings the kids were extremely hard to wake. I was walking to work when I realized I was standing in middle of a major street. Gas guy said at levels it was at, he didn’t think kids would be waking up ever again.

I’m alive from it. I don’t worry about planning for retirement any more. Certainly won’t live that long.

> because it makes all websites look the same.

For most of your target audience, this is a feature, not a bug. The exception is if you're targeting designers or web devs, of course.

People like seeing somewhat familiar designs. They know where to look for things. They know how to navigate. It provides a sense of trust because it looks vaguely like other professional brands they already trust.

Bootstrap has been amazing for accelerating web design across the industry. Sure, there are plenty of examples of better custom designs, but at what cost? Not all of us have extra budget to pay a team of designers and web devs to create the perfect custom design for our website.
I think there's simply been an increase in social problems across the US, particularly homelessness and vagrancy. It's hard to pin that on California.
> There's value in having the same compute ability in fewer cores. Communication/synchronization overhead is usually growing faster than linear in the number of threads.

I agree for sure. But the tradeoffs are pretty steep. Scaling within a core is traditionally sqrt(size), while scaling number of cores on a problem is also sqrt(cores).

Balancing between size-of-core vs number-of-cores is a big question. And that also depends very strongly on the task at hand. Web-servers scale better than sqrt(#cores), because each worker-thread is basically fully independent.

> I don't think we'll see Intel and AMD increase the width of their cores so much; they need their cores to scale to 5Ghz (even if it takes 1KW of cooling) for marketting and competition reasons, and wider cores are harder to clock so high.

I think there's a good argument that AMD / Intel can't scale their decoder much larger than 4-way / 6-way with uOp cache, due to the instruction set issue.

But I've seen some interesting innovations: the most recent Intel Atoms have double-decoders (2+2 decoder) on SMT-based Atoms. Such a thing would make SMT more efficient without much increase to power.

Its strange to see Apple take the single-thread performance crown. But... I don't think they've proven themselves in the high-end server / workstation market yet. Even if they do scale up, their decisions don't seem to be an obvious winner at the high end.
Nailed it. I spent many years hacking on my phones and having "fun" (which included bugs and the occasional brick).

Now my phone is a tool that I use for work and my side projects. Not to mention that I have a family that depends on me and I on them. We need to be able to get in touch.

It's like your college football rivalry, or GOP / Dem, or whatever us v. them you're into these days. I suppose we're wired emotionally for such things. And there's nothing like emotion to get clicks!
At the same time, a significant portion of the computer industry (HP, which is moving its--well HPE's--HQ to Houston, notwithstanding) was in the East through about the 90s. Boston in the case of the Route 128 companies, etc. But also others like IBM. So a large chunk of the industry was away from California.

There a pretty wide gap between actually being in danger of running out of something and it being completely free.

Wheat futures also get traded, and we're not about to run out of that.

Futures trading could actually make it easier to fund the up front cost of building desalination plants since they could lock in the price that they are selling their water for.
I'm not sure why your dismissive tone is somehow upvoted here. I rarely comment and do not see how this as a strawman. If this is not a strawman, then explain how a 15yo with notepad can do the same as these solutions with a defensible stance. Is it because the person replying to you wasn't nice and give you fluffy kind words? I'm not understanding why the thin skin here. If you make a bold statement, it should be able to be backed up. Problem is here that you can't, so just ad hominem instead.
I don't know why you're up in arms about this, but it's clearly not false. Almost all of the games content is PvE based. The PvP mode is very small in scope compared to everything else that's available.
When companies find that their games are already working on Linux, they may be able to justify spending a little extra effort on testing and fixing a couple of bugs here and there. Then over time it may become an officially supported configuration, and they may do Linux-specific optimizations or features. It's a stepping stone. Embrace, extend, extinguish in reverse!
They already let us fly with numerous lithium fire hazards per person. All you need is something like a metal barreled ink pen to pierce the battery pack. Heck, what protection is there from me getting some volume of mercury on board? A pressurized aluminum airframe would not take kindly to spilling any amount of that.
Discord has a feature (recently added?) in which you can reply to something -- it gets miniquoted above your reply. It does a good job of 'flattening out the tree'.
I switched back from Pop!_OS about a month ago, after nearly a year of using it exclusively.

My previous laptop broke, so I got a new one. Of course I immediately created a Pop! partition and started installing stuff. I tried Doom Eternal... and it was running extremely slow for what you'd expect from a RTX 2080. Surely enough, I switched to my Windows 10 partition and the game ran smooth like butter over there. I spent some time looking at the issue but couldn't figure it out.

I decided to love back to Windows for the time being, enjoy the laptop and try again later on.
Right. But I don't care for PvP. I've never wanted to play PvP.

I enjoy the raids and the cooperative strikes with friends.

Even if it's what keeps the game alive, they have one less active player because I don't have the ability to play with my friends.

Was that $0.12/kWh the all-in cost or just the power cost? Also in MA, I pay about that for the power, but an additional $0.09/kWh or so for the transmission/distribution of that power.

The total delivered price is $0.19xx for me per marginal kWh and seems to be close to that across MA.

Xeon Phi is actually a pretty nice system to work with but as picky about performance as a GPU while more expensive and harder to find. Combining regular tool chains for code with high core count and SMT on top of AVX512 was nice. 68 cores, 4 way SMT, and 16 way SIMD, provides 4k “threads” in the GPU sense, except the memory hierarchy isn’t nearly as harsh because of the MCDRAM.
That's basically the "power trip" case, as you don't really "need" to invent anything.
i think it's great on how it brushed on forms and web api's, but in your case it seems exploringjs.com would be a fit (grouped by ecmascript versions).

OTOH out of scope are server-side JS (NodeJS), transpilers like babel, bundlers like webpack, and of course package managers like npm and yarn
Tailwinds also acts a design system for your site, you have a set of paddings, margins, colors, font sizes, breakpoints, etc that make up your design system.

In my experience it results in more consistent designs because everything must come from what you make available in your tailwinds config.
Yeah this is a terrible measure of productivity. Counting commits and PRs strikes me as the same as counting lines of code, just with more steps.

What's even worse is if this metric ever becomes a target, Goodhart's Law will apply, and then Campbell's law will make it as useless as LOC.
While I don't fully agree with the parent, there was a long tradition of "Go west young man" for people who wanted to make their fortunates far from eastern bankers and other conservative industries. Very broad brush, but also not wholly inaccurate.
There's more to "Silicon Valley" than San Francisco. I'd argue that SF isn't really part of the "Valley". Certainly not by a geographical definition of a valley.

I really wanted to try an induction range when we remodeled our kitchen a few years ago, but my wife wanted gas. I made a deal with her that if she didn't like the inductive, I would bring in gas and get her a gas range.

I really liked the idea of the range top being a flat, solid surface, and staying relatively cool, keeping spills from baking on and making cleanup ridiculously easy.

My wife tends to run hot, temperature wise, and gas ranges throw off a lot of heat into the surrounding area. The inductive range heats amazingly fast, reacts as fast as her parents gas range, and I can boil a teapot, pull it off, and immediately put my hand on the "burner". It's hot, sure, but on a gas or resistive range I'd have to go to the ER.

Some people put down paper towels under pots before cooking to make cleanup easier. Cleanup has lived up to my expectations, very easy.

The resistive solid surface ranges still get very hot, and a friend with one talks about how hard it is to get baked and burnt on foods off.

Now with all this talk about the combustion byproducts being problematic, I'm convinced this was definitely the right choice.
Again, because I can't just play the PvE content on linux. I get banned upon a few minutes of just launching the game.
Often times operations are order-independent. Specifying those as sequential `await`-s does not make a lot of sense in those situations. I guess less fine grained control is desirable under such circumstances :-)

The 21st century's "true start" was on New Year's Eve, 2000.

Of course, I realize he's talking about defining events that delimit major changes between the previous century and its successor. And more specifically, major changes in what Thiel cares about, like financial markets, start-ups, monopolies, and money in general.

But, really, we're only 20% into the century. Something else could easily eclipse Covid-19 even within the parameters of what matters to Thiel. You know, like climate change, the second coming, asteroid hitting the Earth, quantum computing, "the singularity", etc... Who the F knows? There's no utility in this kind of thinking. Just take it for it is and what it becomes since starting on Jan 1st, 2000.
This is a great addition to Matrix. One of the things I really like about Matrix is how matrix.org has an IRC bridge that bridges all of Freenode. It is good to see Gitter getting bridged into Matrix too.

For example, if you want to join Freenode #lisp channel via Matrix, you can do so by joining #freenode_#lisp:matrix.org. Here is a direct Element web client URL to it, in case you want to try it now: https://app.element.io/#/room/#freenode_#lisp:matrix.org .

Element (previous known as Riot) web client is a great way to get started with Matrix without having to install anything. You have to create an account of course but after that it is pretty straightforward. The fact that all of Freenode (and now Gitter) is available on it makes it like one big IRC bouncer. Moreover, this is all distributed and decentralized!

Here is another safe Matrix room to try out and experiment with: https://app.element.io/#/room/#spxy:matrix.org . Most of us here are from Hacker News. We talk about computer science and mathematics here. Common Lisp and Emacs are being discussed these days. Say "hi" if you join it! :)
1) SF & Valley: Education levels of the people here. You can get that in a couple other places--DC, NYC, Boston--but not too many others. Relatedly, two easily accessible world class universities are in the Bay Area: Boston beats us here, but we beat NYC and DC.

2) SF & Valley: Diversity. Bay Area cities top the list of largest number of foreign born residents, with only LA and NYC being competitive.

3) SF & Valley: Weather. LA beats us here, but SF trounces NYC, Boston, DC, and Seattle.

4) Just SF: Walkability and street life. SF is more walkable than most cities (the weather helps with that), and although it has shitty public transit options, it's only shitty in comparison to places with actual good public transit, which more or less don't exist in the US.

5) Just SF: Weirdness. Okay, SF has driven out most of the interesting weirdo and artistic crowds and replaced them with CrossFitting Burners. But there are still remnants of that culture, more so than most places except perhaps NYC.

6) SF & Valley: Food. It's mediocre in comparison to the scenes in LA and NYC. But it's still worlds better than the rest of the country.

7) SF: Arts. Similar to food, it's mediocre compared to LA and NYC. But it's still worlds better than the rest of the country.

8) SF & Valley: Nature. West Coast cities are all competitive here, as is Denver/Boulder (though even they lack the beaches), but this is another place where East Coast cities fall short.

In the end, the only plausibly competitive cities on this scoring matrix are LA and NYC. LA sacrifices a lot of the walkability and weirdness of SF. NYC sacrifices the weather, and moving to NYC from SF isn't going to get you of any the much vaunted coupon-cutting decrease in cost of living that everyone in these comments is so pumped about.

Just to be fair, I'll also list disadvantages of SF:

1) Cost of living. "No one is willing to pay that much to live in SF, it's too expensive."

2) Dating scene for men.

3) Travel. Subjective, but East Coast cities are better situated for international travel than the West Coast.

4) Cleanliness. Yep, SF is an unhygienic shithole in many places.

5) Monoculture. Too many tech folks here, not enough diversity in industry.

Sorry. I meant high resolution screens. There were hardly any “retina” laptops (and no desktop screens) when apple started introducing theirs in 2012.
I don't think most places are like this, but moreover, what is the critical difference between the anti-science fundamentalist Christian indoctrination and a anti-science fundamentalist political indoctrination one finds in Silicon Valley? Is it just which one a given individual finds more palatable (subjective) or is one objectively better than the other (and if so, why?)? And in either case, why pick one fringe or the other when there are so many places across the country that are more ideologically diverse and tolerant?

This is amazing :) "At IMGZ, we're passionate about two things: Serving images, and speaking about ourself in the plural so it doesn't look like it's the one-man sideproject it is, and we don't even really care about serving images that much. "
Sounds like what happened at Microsoft with the FYIV badges and such people had around back a few decades ago. Can't remember where I read it but the people that were fully vested weren't worried about being fired so they spoke their minds.

In a way it gives you license to not give a shit about what other people think (although don't be a dick or asshole just because you can, and don't do anything which could endanger your RSUs).

But I do have a question in regards to "slacking off". Is this slacking doing only 8 hours a day (instead of 12)? Or is it actually doing like 4 hours of useful work?

Note I do not speak from experience.
