RISC-V is designed to be super simple to implement, this means simple instructions that do one thing, like add or multiply. In a more complex design you have add and multiply, but also add-multiply that does both. By having that more complex instruction you can get more work done on a single instruction, but it requires more silicon.

If your goal is: build a CPU that is as simple as possible, with as few gates as possible then RISC-V is great, But if you are trying to get good performance, then RISC-v is a bad design. I think RISC-V is great, and i think it will se a lot of sucsess, because there are many applications for a slow, simple and free CPU, but it wont compete with x86 and ARM on performance.
Interesting, I just copied the .torrent file into the Github repo so Google Drive isn't required at all. This is probably a better way to do it anyways.
I can attest that -even with kids- this is almost set-and-forget.

Lets break down your "pimping" attributes:

- Recruiting young girls: Good infantilization here, you mean young women over the age of consent that can decide for themselves what they can do with their bodies? Those women? And how are they being recruited? By demonstrating the value of their service and being an attractive alternative to McDonald's minimum wage burger flipping? Is McDonalds in the burger-work pimping business?

- Connecting them with clients: So basically any communication network is a pimping network?

- Taking a cut of the profit: They are a popular platform like any other, a place where users know to go to find sex-workers, and they are using that platform as a business. Film festivals also act as middle-men in this regard, but does anyone say film festivals are in the "film pimping" business?

- While keeping control of the whole business: I think I need a source on this, are they shutting down OnlyFan creators because they are linking to an external website? I couldn't find anything in their terms: https://onlyfans.com/terms/user-content
I misread a bias into your comment, my apologies
So what do you do with a busted MacBook Pro
How do you determine when "the need arises?" We've typically used bottlenecks, e.g. one piece of the app could benefit from additional scale while others wouldn't, and gone from there, but I feel like there's a better or more systematic approach that we're missing.
The Compute Modules have (optionally I think) eMMC which is not especially fast, but fast enough and appears much more reliable than SD cards.

The RPi 4 also has support for USB 3 disks using UAS. I've attached a couple of SSDs to mine. https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2020/09/24/raspberry-pi-4-running...
If you're fine with a system that rewards those who grew up in middle class and above families and punishes those that don't then I disagree but okay. But don't call that a system based on merit when you're quite transparently admitting it's not.

Meritocracies are an inhuman system which, to the extent they can be realized, only happen incidentally. How many of the relatively well to do people on this board subvert the meritocracy every day by giving their children every little advantage that tons of families just simply never could give their children. What would it take to make a meritocracy work? Ironically it would take a great flattening. But precisely because they believe in gain from advantage, the biggest proponents of meritocracy can never argue for the one thing that would actually make their system work. So instead we end up in this weird limbo where merit is actually subverted over and over again by a highly stratified social/economic makeup that begins in childhood and has strong persistence throughout life. "Actual" meritocracy may arise from time to time as a result of society spanning tragedy but will also quickly disappear and that doesn't exactly seem like the type of thing we should be aiming for anyways.
Asexual is a broad spectrum. All it means is you don’t feel sexual attraction. I’m both asexual and hypersexual. (Bipolar is the gift that keeps on giving.). I happily read and write furry porn as a hobby.

If you want to see how asexuality and sex can work in a relationship, my story Date Night covers that.

Disclaimer: It is furry fiction. There are no explicit sex, just discussion about it. https://www.thevoice.dog/episode/date-night-by-kayode-lycaon
AI’s struggle to reach “understanding” and “meaning”
All I particularly remember from Usenet: jms interacting with Babylon 5 fans, and Serdar Argic's ongoing efforts to invert the history of the Armenian genocide.
So, in a perverse view, the web is civilization's largest, most epic failure: it altered our entire civilization, yet left the one aspect it was intended to change alone.
Not to mention Java and Go's VM / Runtime ( or in fact most of so called benchmarks ) doesn't have years of optimisation like they were on x86.
When I changed my internet service recently an equipment rental fee was included in the cost per month, even though I have my own modem. I was pleasantly surprised when the first bill came and I wasn’t actually charged that portion. Nice to know that will be the expectation from now on.
This no longer has anything to do with 'burden of proof', which I continue to reject as a concept (maybe you are agreeing with me?).
Author of that page here: I'm looking for a free and viable service for switching (TURN) and brokering a WebRTC-based remote version. (The emulation is prepared for assync operations since a few years already.) Any recommendations?
well many confuse consensus for science
What you do online has consequences. Not everyone is going to agree with your worldview.

Becoming a sex object is not a noble thing, and something you have full control over. You pulling race into this is completely irrelevant and a desperate grasping for straws. Race is not something you can control, and you subconsciously equating this to "negative presence" projects something on your behalf that I don't think helps you here.
Trump downplays Russian-linked cyberattack on U.S.
I really liked Konrad Lorenz's explanation of this. He said that every innate ability to learn has a corresponding innate "teaching mechanism".

For example, an animal like a duck won't necessarily reason "hmm, is this a safe spot? Maybe I should find an area with more protection from [predator]", instead it will have an innate anxiety that it feels when it is in an unsafe place, and that anxiety will drive it to find a different spot.

This was really an a-ha moment for me. Where I previously thought that anxiety and "depression" (not clinical depression) were mysterious unexplainable side-effects of evolution, now I see that they are probably innate mechanisms that spur us to go out, learn more, find opportunity, exercise, meet people etc. Our bodies know when we are stagnating before our minds do.

The fact that we can override those innate mechanisms and sit alone in a quiet, empty room at all is what is really impressive.
> I feel we will learn more from an average teacher who we socially interact with than the best teacher from who we are not socially connected.

Further - I wonder if students would do much better with 1/3 the amount of school time and 1/3 the class size. Instead of 6 hours a day in a class of 21 kids, 2 hours a day in a class of 7.
>Is it as young as that? I'm surprised.

And, really, 30 years overstates it. You need another 5 years before all the pieces came together to make something that really looks like the modern web and maybe even a couple more before it really started having an effect on even tech-savvy audiences.
Scroll down that page, there’s a photo and description... “The Extension Pillars Makes The Aluminum Case Become A Big Heatsink”
How is it more realistic to have somebody maintain hardware and software over time, and not pay for that service over time? Their business doesn't care if "you only buy the hard drive once".
Consider tensor cores. They are basically just 4/8-bit SIMD units. Add a very basic integer control unit and some specialized, custom tensor instructions. It's literally just another CPU core from an integration perspective. It shares the same memory/coherency architecture in every way without a bunch of subtle edge cases laying in wait. It even largely shares the same programming model for software making optimizations easier and faster to create in the compiler. Along the same lines, if the OS is aware of the extensions on each core, it can view all processors in the system as "cpu cores", but target specific cores based on their available extensions.

This same process applies to most of the GPU. Nvidia uses RISC-V controllers for this reason. AMD uses a scalar unit of whatever ISA to do one-off calculations and control SIMD flow. A shared privilege model would also be good here. The current GPU landscape is rife with ways to bleed into privileged space. A shared hardware privilege model would go a long way toward dealing with this issue.

> For a general purpose high performance SoC, you don't want a simple CPU design, you want a fast CPU design, and you have space for all the coprocessors you want anyway.

You don't want your one core that does fast CPU execution OR fast tensor OR gpu OR whatever else. You want dedicated cores to do those things AND fast CPU cores too. There are quite a few RISC-V extensions aimed at improving single-thread performance and code density. Like with other ISAs, if there's any low-hanging fruit at the instruction level, it will be added to an extension soon enough.
The last time a post like this appeared on HN prompted me to write a gist with a simple neural network in Python (with Numpy). It downloads the MNIST dataset for you, trains a fully connected network on it, prints the accuracy on the validation set and plots the loss. It's pretty verbose with plenty of terms and comments to search the web for if you're interested.

Being sex repulsed and asexual are two very different things.

I’m both asexual and write pornography. I just don’t feel sexual attraction.

My understanding of sexual attraction is limited but I’ve learned to approximate it in my writing by talking with a lot of other porn writers and using my own roughly equivalent experiences to fill the gaps.
People had expected cyberpunk to be as good an immersive sim as the first Deux Ex. It's not, and cannot live up to the hype. Regardless of the bugs.
It's an astute observation, especially if you have not heard Alan Kay's thoughts on the subject. He calls our industry a Cargo Cult and explicitly compares it to fashion and pop culture.

Keeping with the anology I'm sure there are software engineering equivalents to Jeans and T-Shirts and it would be an interesting study to compare organizations that opt for these fashions to those that do not.

If you're reading PG, it seems like a great topic for an essay.
People are hardly working for Google because they want to.

People are hardly working in slaughter houses and coal mines because they want to.

Feminists I know are selling themselves because they like sex, and controlling their bodies time economy is their choice.

One would think on this forum that it’s a gradient of statistics and not black and white anecdotes would be more obvious.

Exploitation of minors is one thing. Though, I do not see many folks lifting a finger over child political prisoners in rancid cages. So I’m left wondering if exploitation is the real issue or the sex part given cultural norms.
But I think you are of well above average intelligence and also more suited to the study methods you described.

Most people I think want to learn via social environments, if you try and see from their perspective it will make your meetings go smoother IMO - think that they struggle to absorb information without the socialization aspect, and then you will start to realize the importance of some of these social constructs like meetings and their place in learning.
They address this in the article. Meritocracy doesn't mean dropping your children in the forest and stripping all advantage from them.

The whole point of a meritocracy is to be the best you can. Giving every advantage to your children that you can afford is the whole point of meritocracy. It's not "fair" but it produces peak performance, like the article says
That's a slick cluster in a box. I'm not sure which modules I'd put on it, though. Unless you harvest them from the 2 GB dev kits, the total price pushes up against a single Jetson Xavier AGX, which is a better value (and has an M.2 slot for an SSD).
You don't even need to look that far away, anyone you've interacted with in a bar or supermarket is most likely having their actions timed and watched by a security camera.
>1. Nobody ever stated that.

Oh hell no. If you read through 10K comments sine M1 launch on HN alone, majority of them are stating exactly that. ( Which is rather annoying )

That why you see quite a few of these new benchmarks blog post trying to provide a balanced view.
I have no recollection of the source, but I read in what I recall as a reasonable source the following: Many French peasants in the mid-late 1700's would mostly sleep through winters, arising to eat (IIRC). I don't recall a mention with this of frequent death, but it could have gone without mention.

In a sense this is contemporary, compared to "early" humans, and possible to verify in the record.
This is a good explanation, thanks.
It’s a good point - there may be a point of optimization, however my gut feel is 2 hours is too short and 6 hours too long. But that’s pure speculation as it’s not my field
>How many executives and powerful managers are there at CDPR and how many of them have significant development experience?

I bet a lot of them, due to the origins of the company.

If you're talking about something like EA, then I'd believe they'd brought in people with more marketing/sales skills because they know how to make money.

But, it's easy to criticize managers - their work has visibility, and they own the responsability of the product (assuming you're talking about product managers). They have deadlines as well, or not? It's not like deadlines are something arbitrary.

Yet it's like: developers can deliver bugged software due to limited deadlines/bloated features, but management can't deliver bad outcomes due to limited deadlines/bloated features? Something doesn't add up here.

Why isn't it fair to say that bad developers hide behind tight deadlines? Why not say that simply the dev team isn't good enough to pull this off on these timelines?

It's like time constrains doesn't help anyone, and the release a new franchise isn't something easy. Right?

>So the right thing to do might have been to release a beta version for people who wanted it, say it's a beta, and give people back $10 or something. Because if you say it's not finished, people are not going to want to pay the full $60.

Clearly they wanted to be one of the first "true next gen titles" for PS5/Xbox S X, I don't even think such platforms allow for beta releases, neither it would make sense to release a beta game in a brand new platform - that would suck for their brands.
How do you tell fact from fiction/propaganda in cases such as these? North Korea is so closed that almost everything that reaches us comes from its enemies or defectors. We want to believe the strangest things about that country. And sure, some of it must be real, but how can you tell? Did your driver personally witness this, or did someone tell him and he was simply spreading a rumor?
The issue of meritocracy often turns semantic. Different realities can be justified with the same word depending on people's conception of justice and efficiency.

The other aspect not mentioned is that a society can be meritocratic, but the peak performance that results does not necessarily lead to work that is useful to society in aggregate. I am reminded of Jeff Hammerbacher's infamous quote: "the best minds of my generation are thinking about how to make people click ads." That quote is simplistic to humorous effect of course, but it underlies an important natural run-off effect of meritocracy: that much activity is redistributive instead of creative. That's why thinking simply in terms of atomized individuals (as articles on meritocracy written in English usually do) pitted against each other leaves aside too many important questions and outcomes.

edit: to add to this, the last paragraph of the article is deeply ironic since you have people fighting over scraps precisely because smart people have captured much of the pie growth, and did so in a way that would be considered meritocratic by the author.
Exactly.

I've heard it said that this mutation increases the replication rate by 0.4.

If we can keep this under control, we could have instead originally had a replication rate of 0.6 and the pandemic would be long over - with no mutated strain.
I wonder if the transactional nature of the work has an impact on the workers' relationships with people.

All those other industries pay royalties. If you have a break-out hit even as a new artist you will get compensated a magnitude more than $12,000.
I suppose that's technically true, but in the same sense you could say that YouTube pimps its content creators, Hollywood pimps its actors, record labels pimp their artists, etc. Do you honestly think every entertainer and content creator should build and run their own company? Most people don't have the skills and ambition to be entrepeneurs, and content creators need to spend their time focussing on, you know, creating content.
You're glad that cash-strapped young women are ruining their lives for a new handbag?

What prospects do they have for marriage and family after permanently uploading filth to the internet? No high quality man is sticking around after he discovers that bombshell.

It has normalised this catastrophic trend. It has eliminated whatever barriers may have been in place.

At a societal level, it is degrading and humiliating. I know if I was on the outside looking in, I would never tire of pitifully laughing at a people in a state of collapse where a significant proportion of their young women are doing this without censure or shame.
I was hoping this would be a result on graphs representing causal relations that showed some nice properties, such as simplicity (though that would have been pretty obvious).

Instead, it's a good introduction to causal ordering and the kind of techniques used to guarantee causal receiving between distributed nodes. The only thing I can't see is what is "novel" in the paper - the diagrams are all great visualisations, but which one was developed by the author? The trees?
Asexuality and even asociality have been effectively forced upon me by my peers. I don't see any viable avenue to express my sexuality the way I had presumed I would get to as an adult.
> It is impossible to gain freedom from that.

Your sudden shift to such a low-level critique makes it impossible to, say, distinguish a c-corp from a coop (or even c-corps of different sizes, for that matter). Both are merely "impossible to gain freedom from" in your sense.

It's like a submitter defending a spaghetti patchset by talking about the complexity of modern chipsets.
I think it's better than the alternative, as it eliminates the middle man and the performers own the content. But I imagine it will end up like most platforms for content, yielding to superstar economics and a race to the bottom for everyone else whose work has become commoditized and faces unyielding competition for attention. The vast majority of creators on OnlyFans will likely not be able to support themselves I'd guess, or if they will it will only be as supplemental income (I'm saying based on looking at no data).
How to Use DateFormatter in Swift
I'm going to come right out and say calling people children for not liking what you like is pretty childish...

After all, I don't see any death threats here so maybe keep that commentary on Reddit?

-

Now to me there's no distinguishing needed. The story was poorly written. The combat is lack luster. The environment is expansive but hollow. What's left?

Maybe you felt differently, but for me Act 1 was insultingly rushed. The fact that the terrible corny VR tutorial (in the future you can learn to fight in the blink of an eye sitting in a car, not missing a beat... well that's great for V but for the player, you just ruined the pacing of the rising action. I missed the beat. The Brain Dances are similar) is followed by a montage of events that could have taught you game mechanics while actually letting you start to care about your partner instead of having it drilled into you over the next hour that the guy who just robbed you while you stole a car, getting you arrested in the process is your bestie ... truly awful

Act 2 is just as painfully rough. The dialog choices still don't really matter, there are two choices in all those hours that change things meaningfully down the line (save a certain person and get close to a certain person) a lot of the writing is just cringe worthy ("Ghost Off!" and Keanu Reeves referring to his impressive c--- is not something anyone has ever asked for, and he doesn't pull it off)

Act 3 is one of the first places where dialog decisions matter... except the game is already pretty much over. It's like a choose your own ending instead of a choose your own adventure, and there's clearly a canonical choice the game guides you towards, every other ending is half fleshed out, the same way every beginning but Nomad is barely implemented...

-

Now all that being said, to me if a game has such uninspiring combat and such a hollow environment, and lets down it's promises of focusing on customization, and has such an awful bloated UI, and has such a bloated corpse of a skill tree...

It's a bad game. Story or no story, it doesn't save that.

I have books I read where I want a great story that's not interactive and well written.

If the story is interactive, the interaction should add something. Having to slog through a poorly made game for a story in a game of this scale is pretty inexcusable...

There are some middling games as far as gameplay depth and smoothness goes that have get carried by their story, but it needs to be a truly exceptional story, and usually there's a good reason why they couldn't do more with the game play. Games like Hellblade where all their budget went into story telling and the team just wasn't big enough to have some incredibly complex gameplay on top of the intricate storytelling and animation and deep lore... they're able to justify it to some degree. But CP2077 was an almost decade long journey with the kind of resources the Hellblade team wouldn't have in their sweetest dreams. And it's all squandered on what was clearly a lack of direction and focus.
I just graduated from an Ivy, now work at a FAANG, went to jail during my high school years, got tattoos around the same time, and couldn't afford a fraction of the tuition that the school helped me cover. And I wasn't the only one. The person from this article (since when does HN take NY Post seriously?) is offering one, extremely personal take on a process and community that is far larger than himself. The editors are just as guilty of generalizing with their pervasive use of "they." Just my two cents.
> They needed more games, not more time.

they needed to keep their talent. A large number of talent left after TW3. When a studio loses talent - which took releases and experience to create - it's not so easily re-acquired.
