It's a common fallacy. Adding noise does not anonymize data sufficiently. If your traffic monitoring software adds gaussians to car speeds, you can still average over multiple reports about two cars to identify their respective average speeds. Those can be used to determine whether they are trucks or cars, etc.

In neural networks, weight changes do carry meaning. If your network has particularly large updates for the horse recognition neuron, you likely watched horse pictures. If it has updates for handbags, you likely watched pictures of them. If the company averages over all your submissions, the noise will be less relevant and the handbags and horse pictures will eventually show up.

To be fair, the last statement about extinction in the cold and explosive growth is largely due to the size of the brain. Humans figured out techniques to survive in the cold even while being warm blooded. No thick fur is necessary when we can just kill an animal and use its skin to get warmth. Then we discovered fire.

> If you think the comparison is valid then why not tell us what could California or the US adopt from NZ that would make things better?

I understand that “look at what other countries do” is hand-wavy meta-advice. However, that is the best advice I have to give.

I could drill down on a particular policy, but how does that help?

The general rule is that comparing your systems against other countries is worthwhile, and is what most every other country manages to do for breakfast. Dismissing other countries because “The entirety of NZ has a population comparable to the size of a large metro area in the US” is the problem. Start fixing that attitude, and perhaps California can learn from the rest of the world.

There is a secret sauce: pairing a company (Amazon.com) with heavy net operating losses (NoLs) with a very profitable company (AWS).

The result? Amazon pays zero taxes and can continually expand. The NoLs offset the profits, and every time Amazon has a division that becomes profitable they offset it by entering a promising but loss-inducing new sector. Then, when that division becomes profitable - rinse and repeat.

This is Bezos’ genius.
I was also disappointed by that post. I'm definitely not a fan of modern C++ but I wish they would have explained their reasoning in more detail. How is this different from the other C++ subsets that they list in the references?
It's an interesting approach and I think it might be reasonable in terms of power. I also really like the amount of redundancy in the setup, but the cost is probably too steep for my preferences

An RPI 4 8gb is approximately 90$, so 15 nodes becomes 1350$

Actually, it makes a bit of sense.

It sounds like the device was being transported in pieces. Each piece would be warm. Assemble it and you have far more concentrated heat. RTGs also work on temperature differential--when operating there's going to be a system to eject that heat to get a maximum temperature gradient. I can easily picture something like a fan blowing air over a radiator to maximize the power output--and there's your "wave of heat".

I did a course on the history of the Christian Crusades back in college, right when Operation Desert Storm was going on. The professor said that due to an essentially oral history tradition, they talked about the Crusades as something that had happened relatively recently, like to their great-grandparents.

American parents will warn their children that if they misbehave, "the boogeyman" will come for them at night. I was told that the Middle Eastern analogue was "Richard will come and get you" — as in Richard the Lion-Hearted.

You can’t know all the places to look and you don’t have the time to look in all those places, no less filter it all for the best content. This is why I and many others like aggregators. That’s not to say we don’t also have New Yorker subs. I do, through my library–I can read it on my iPad–but I don’t have time to read every issue cover-to-cover. And I definitely find less than one article per issue really resonates with me personally, for any given publication and depending on where I’m at in my life when an issue goes to press. I bet there are plenty of people who don’t even know what the New Yorker is; your suggestion doesn’t help them. HN very well could introduce them, just as it’s introduced me to plenty.

As a proof of concept this is fascinating, and I'm thankful the author chose to share it. It's got me thinking of how I might otherwise leverage Github Actions in unconventional ways. Acknowledging the potential abuse implications that others have mentioned in the comments, it's still a mind-expanding PoC that's going to make me think about things a little different in the future.

Thought this was a really interesting comment. Looked at your profile, which led to your website, which had a page about your family, which said you had a brother named Matthias, which tickled something in my head. Clicked on the rather dated link and saw a familiar face. I don't really follow the woodgears website that much, but I've heard it mentioned here several times.

Anyway, I thought that was a neat connection to make.

Still, it's not ok to just blanket ban them. If they're not efficient enough for certain high performance areas, just don't use them there. I don't see why, for instance, they can't be used along with more efficient implementations, for instance in areas where parallelism and memory locality are not that important (for instance, for a menu or to hold settings).

I feel that banning them altogether may lead people to implement stuff from scratch even when they don't need it, creating another possible source of bugs and vulnerabilities.

Seeing a lot of pessimism and comparisons to the current situation in SF. These cities will likely have completely different outcomes than previous examples. Whether better or worse, it's such a macro scale event that any predictions are meaningless.
The Immigration and Nationality Act states that American citizens “shall” only enter or exit the USA with an American passport.
That's tiny compared to a city though. This whole colonisation idea is predicated on super large balloons. Since breathable air is a lifting gas, it seems like the people would probably live inside them.
Everyone is a sinner, I moved to SF in the 90's. But it's still annoying to listen to 20-30 something tech bro's bitch about the able bodied homeless living on the streets.
There are certainly some concerning trends, but you believe things were better in general during the Cold War before the fall of the Soviet Union? When substantially more people globally lived in poverty? When the US was just coming off the civil rights movements of the 60-70s? When AIDS was rampant, but there was no treatment? When global warming was happening, but it wasn’t widely known or acknowledged?

The majority of brand new cars that the average American is buying is still an ICE-powered automobile that’s nearly as serviceable as the old ones, sometimes requiring more advanced diagnostics tools, but far safer and more reliable.
for sure, depending what is important to each person. Success is a subjective. Maybe some live for exploration, and some for execution... It really just comes down to fulling what make sense for oneself. ;-)
Therapy from a qualified professional might be more helpful here than a book suggestion.
I've considered such a setup myself and decided that I also wanted redundancy at the hardware/node level. If my storage server goes down, then everything is down until it's fixed. I think the person who made this setup had the same considerations

On first glance - I don't know why one would use BalenaEtcher for bootable USB writing. `dd` on POSIX and Rufus on Windows work better in my experience.

After reading - this article doesn't really fill a niche. When I first dual booted Ubuntu 16.04 and Windows as a middle schooler or so I probably wouldn't have been able to figure it out even with this article's help, it doesn't go into rich enough detail. But it's also not a great abstract of the process either because it doesn't explain what it tells you to do. Ultimately there are better resources.

You're right! I realised my mistake and edited my post in the meantime.

The approach of making a small instruction-set with optional extensions means RISC-V is very well suited for making specialized co-processors. This story discuss that more in detail: https://erik-engheim.medium.com/apple-m1-foreshadows-risc-v-...

On example of this is Esperanto Technologies, which has created an SoC with slightly more transistors than the M1, which has over 1000 RISC-V cores which implement the RISC-V vector instruction set extension to allow the processing of a large number of matrices and vectors. Basically the ET-SoC-1 as they call it is supposed to offer superior performance in the Machine Learning domain. 30-50x better performance with 100x less power consumption.

Esperanto Technologies are using the full flexibility of RISC-V by having more general purpose RISC-V cores, four of them, which are meant to run an operating system, which schedules machine learning tasks to this large number of smaller vector oriented RISC-V cores.

My understanding is that creating a good ISA is actually quite a task. RISC-V has over 1000 contributors over years who have made it happen. Esperanto Technologies apparently began with their own proprietary ISA for their coprocessors but found they could not beat RISC-V, and that making something better would just cost a lot more money and resources.

So in short the value proposition is in having a highly customizable ISA, that is well designed. There are no such other options on the market. ARM isn't highly customizable, since it has over 1000 instructions you must implement. RISC-V only has 47 instruction you must implement. All fairly simple ones.
Will DC make a comeback? With solar panels and home batteries and LED lights, it seems like a no-brainer to take advantage of direct current...
Exceptions have hidden costs that are hard to spot. For example, generated assembly for C++ code with or without noexcept can be quite different. Part of the reason is that DFA based optimizations get overwhelmed by the number of implied execution paths when exceptions may be thrown. So the optimizer essentially is forced give up more often, resulting in slower code for the normal case. This is orthogonal to any binary size issues from linking the runtime support for exceptions.

Also, EPA has much stringent standard, my 50 years old AC using probably has a shitty 6 SEER (compared to 22 SEER for the best units these days), refrigerant has changed too, manufacturing tolerances are much tighter now, higher demand and lower prices has probably caused material quality to plummet as well...

>Ergo, if you don't care about memory management (which is fine), then feel free to use lots of STL stuff.

This isn't really true.
All of these containers take custom allocators, which can be tailored to your use case (eg: a stack based allocator).

Sure but the argument against STL wasn't performance but rather that it can allocate at all.

So optimal unordered map implementations, like Google's absl::flat_hash_map or Facebook's F14 would be similarly banned as they internally allocate.

I'd definitely recommend those libraries over std::unordered_map for sure, but it's not like std::unordered_map is unusably slow or broken, either. It's fairly comparably to Java's HashMap that everyone uses without thinking about it.

It's a good strategy only if you can take the same technology downmarket eventually. It's not yet clear how downmarket Tesla can be even in the car market, and the car market is very different than food, in that only 18% of people globally, mostly the richest, have cars, but 100% of them need to eat. Another important difference is that cars don't grow out of the ground.

Right now there's a flood of capital available, so it's very hard to tell a priori which ideas have legs and which are just mirages that look good in a slide deck. This could be amazing. But it could be another Juicero or WeWork, where the unit economics just don't make any sense.
Its pretty crazy how no one is talking about how only 18% of the stimulus bill is going to individuals. I'm by no means rich but I made 80k passively this year so I don't know which side of the wealth transfer I'm on.

DJI’s “no fly zones” aren’t the same as the FAA’s airspace classification. I can take off through the DJI app even though I’m in controlled airspace for which there is no automated approval, but can’t take off without a specific exemption from DJI if I’m in the approach path of an airport even though it’s not operational at that time and the FAA considers it uncontrolled.
This would be very useful.

Didn’t the Ottomans interrupt that continuity rather significantly? For example, we don’t call it “Constantinople” any more and the inhabitants of the region don’t seem to consider themselves descendants of Romans as much as Ottomans (or perhaps Islamic identity more generally), at least as I understand it.
“ In particular, it can be tricky to maintain consistent curvature between adjoining segments of a path, which can lead to a ‘lumpy’ look; the following example is contrived, but in practice consistently getting smooth feeling curves with Béziers is challenging.”

It’s not that hard. I’m an artist who specializes in Illustrator, and I have some simple rules for its pen tool:

1. Drag curve handles out to 1/3 of the length of the curve segment they control.

2. Eschew s-curves between two control points.

3. Don’t turn more than about 90º between two control points.

There are people out there who have a similar set of rules but prefer to always put their control points at 12/3/6/9 o’clock; for more circular shapes this works, but it falls apart on anything interesting - try drawing an oval with its long axis at about 45° with my method and with this method, and observe how much more uneven the curve handles have to be for the 12/3/6/9 method.
That "sounds" interesting but why not have a partition or a less loud AC Unit?
I know many expats that have exactly the experiences you mention. My question: how can it be changed? It seems to hurt American competitiveness (i read a legal analysis by a US law school which seemed to support this) by putting Americans at such a disadvantage to citizens of other countries living abroad. Anecdotally, when I lived abroad, there were easily 10x the number of Brits or Aussies or Canadians to every American.

Also, there was a report that the revenue generated by FATCA was outweighed 100:1 by the worldwide banking industry’s compliance costs.

So how does it get changed? Why does everyone act like it is a forgone conclusion that it will never change?

The law was meant to tackle wealthy American residents hiding money offshore, not normal people living offshore for whom banking services are “local” to them.
good question. However, I have fairly poor eyesight and I don’t wear glasses, so perhaps I’m not the best case study
Not really. You can supply alloctors to contai ers, but it becomes iffy for strings. Custom allocator support for std::function was removed in C++17. And there is no way that I am aware of to use custom allocators for the std::shared_ptr refcounters.

There's "technical limitation of the game engine" for not giving an avatar a haircut, now?

I liked CP2077 fine as Yet Another One Of Those Games (and the setting scratched my itch a lot more than GTA5), but the entire thing feels half-baked and credulous around most of its themes. Edgerunners aren't treated as nearly the deniable assets they should be (hell, the game treats cops as generally legitimate entities) and life is only cheap if you don't have a custom face mesh.

I didn't really hit any major bugs, so I don't have any negative vibes for it there. Some of the set pieces are really nice, though, and I do just like driving around the city. And some of the character work on the major characters is quite good. But conceptually? From the big-ideas perspective--and cyberpunk, and punk movements generally, is a big-ideas genre--it feels like "dimly remembered ideas of the future of the 80's, mostly misunderstood and viewed through a modern and very non-radical lens".
