Apple did poach a few of Intel's better architects and killed Intel's smartphone ambitions. But the damage occured two decades before that.

Intel is dying because they should have entered the foundry business in the early 90's. Process was always their forte, they were never good at the CPU architecture design anyway as iAPX/i860/Itanium amply demonstrated.

Instead they blew $100B getting into antivirus, network security, mobileye, infineon, and a dozen other failed businesses, $50B in illegal kickbacks keeping AMD out of the unprofitable low end laptop market, and another $50B of "contra revenue" subsidizing their inferior me-too products against mobile SOCs they should have been fabbing in the first place.
Today ends the tamil lunar month of marghazhi..a winter festival marked by drawing kolams at the crack of dawn.

Learning how to draw them was a summer vacation fun thing to do. Altho I don’t remember being charged with the chore of drawing it. I draw on paper for fun.

It’s an art that has been alive for centuries. I remember hearing from some women that they’d sing songs while drawing them and in the olden days, that was a way to learn math and counting and geometry..because girls weren’t sent to school. It is remarkable to see them being drawn.

It can get complicated...I follow this woman online https://m.facebook.com/thelotusshakti/videos/252912082397860... ...I can only find a Facebook link ..the dot kolams and chikku kolams are the most challenging. Line kolams are easier.

To me, the most poignant part of drawing kolams at the crack of dawn was that it will be gone by dawn the next day. And we draw a new design all over again. It’s like life. It’s always possible to create something beautiful from a clean slate. And clean slates are not only easy but necessary. You wipe the old out clean only because you believe that you can not just recreate but also know that you can create something better bigger and maybe even more beautiful.
yea but not being able to keep up with demand is a good problem to have, and much easier to solve than having an inferior product
I've owned a few dogs and cats that would have wrecked absolute chaos with door handles they could manipulate, but I doubt that's enough to drive the round knob industry here.
Are you being sarcastic?

But, either way, it really depends. If you are writing a large application and jQuery saves thousands of lines of boilerplate, then it's totally worth it. For a tiny library (which is what this page is targeted at), then it's probably overkill and you should learn how to do it manually with pure JS. Both can be true at the same time.
You can build on Java + SpringBoot + MySQL + Linux + Docker Compose, then what else do you really need?

I mean there's tons of technology stacks to choose from, but people get lazy and take the easy way out rather than learning to scale servers themselves.

Get on Linode. It's base on Linux instances. If you build on Linux you are "free" and not "owned"
>I believe it is something like a 3 millions dollars lost per minute if they are idle.

I think that's overestimating, although you are right it is damn expensive.

Order of magnitude I would say it's more like: Fab has lifetime of 2-3(?) years, and costs $10B to build and amortize. So every minute of idled factory capital = $6,000 in pure cost of the facility.

(although, if you think of it in potential lost revenue terms, then you may be more correct.)

(Actually we can also do that arithmetic, according to https://www.forbes.com/sites/willyshih/2020/05/15/tsmcs-anno...

240,000 wafers per year * 500 chips per wafer * $100? = $12B per year revenue. Also is something like $22k per minute)

This is awesome. I just finished with a more narrowly scoped and probably worse version of something very similar – in JS/TS no less.

Looking forward to digging deeper into this later.
It's very telling that all this censorship happened right after they found out that congress oversight committees would all be chaired by democrats.
Parler used AWS. I suggested avoid AWS. What am I missing. I might be missing something.
At the same time, why do people insist that money needs to be "backed" by something?

Ultimately if people cooperatively agree to trade USDT at around USD1 it is working as intended and that's really all that matters, considering USDT isn't something you'd hold for an extended period of time.

I wonder if it would be possible to design a token such that if any trader caused its value to crash from the prescribed function (where in this case it is a flat USD1), that trader's wallet is banned from trading, as a digital punishment, leaving only the players who respect the rules of the game and maintain its prescribed trading value. Is that possible to encode such logic in a token? (I haven't coded for crypto before, so honest question)
Everything old is new again? The same things were said about tether in 2017.

Maybe they’re right this time? Who knows, but it seems like a lot of work has been done to fine the smoking gun of the big tether fraud, and so far nothing.

The questions seem valid, but so far it doesn’t seem like anything has panned out.
Well, they do seem to have reinvented fractional reserve banking.

The "fraction" is unknown though, with unwillingness to provide details and a vague assertions from someone that it's "fully backed". But, you know, you have to take his word for it.
not really true. Significant parts of Europe don't even have a minimum wages, in particular the ones American progressives keep referencing like Denmark, and instead rely on collective bargaining agreements. At the state level US minimum wage can be quite high (15$ in NY), the highest min wage in Europe is France, with 11€

Intel can't get good yields at 10nm.
My personal experience moving from CA to Japan is that despite the national taxes being higher than the USA, it pencils out to less than what I was paying in the US because of CA’s high tax rate, and I get a functioning healthcare system to boot.
There are many stablecoins. Right now tether continues to get most volume due to access to some major exchanges, but others could take its place. I don’t think it would be anything to write home about, though.
There was a ContentFilterExclusionList key in the /System/Library/Frameworks/NetworkExtension.framework/Versions/Current/Resources/Info.plist file. macOS 11.2 beta 2 removed the ContentFilterExclusionList. Does that take 6 months?
I loved Tresorit but it's camera upload feature didn't transfer files correctly from my wife's iPhone - it left them corrupted and unopenable with no warnings or errors whatsoever.

Unfortunately because of that alone I dropped them completely. I'm using Dropbox now because I haven't found a better alternative for syncing between iPhone/Android/Windows/Linux.
There are a fair number of internet connected sex toys (or anti-sex toys?), and the answer is so they can be controlled over the internet.
Do you have an example of the right tool? SQL is already a DSL and I can't see how creating another language isn't just adding more overhead without actually getting you to usable objects.

The only reason objects are the "wrong" abstraction is because they don't match relational models exactly. That impedance mismatch is the entire reason for the object-to-relational mapping, otherwise you can use things like document-stores and just serialize your objects directly.
> Tether is backed. It isn’t a fraud.

Both of these can be true. But it is also true that Tether cannot be redeemed for USD (owning USDT does not entitle you to exchange for USD) and it has never undergone a hard audit. So while the entire project can be a good faith effort its also entirely possible its worth a lot less than $1USD for 1 USDT
I don't know, I found the argument about competing railways in one town compelling. What if I as a consumer like the "dumping"? What if most of us do?
Last I checked, tether is created when USD is deposited in a bank in Hong Kong.

That makes tether something very different than the federal reserve which can just conjure money and give it to the banks.
Just curious, why aren’t you a fan of stoicism? If you don’t mind sharing some thoughts on it I’d appreciate it. I’ve been exploring it and I enjoy reading various takes on it. I’m not married to the philosophy and looking for a battle by any means.
Because otherwise outputs go down, with people naturally making effort to do whatever it takes to qualify for the best compensation, rather than actually doing something productive (as high outputs is not it). As the result, the whole economy (and thus, society) struggles.

Check history of the Soviet Union - it was a glaring issue there.
I (respectfully) disagree completely. All source code is knowledge. All the content that goes in to a product when you're shipping it is knowledge. Managing a project is knowledge management. Managing multiple projects is knowledge management. Managing a company is knowledge management.

I've never seen a tool (other than, arguably, an Operating System) that does all of this comfortably.
I think you don’t really understand how Tether works.
People tend to forget that Silicon Valley tech firms used to collude to keep wages down by agreeing not to try to poach employees: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-Tech_Employee_Antitrust_L.... Of course, SV engineers were already paid well at the time, but nothing like it is now.

Facebook played a big role in messing up the scheme by refusing to collude and aggressively going after Google's employees (https://techcrunch.com/2014/03/24/sheryl-sandberg-facebook-r...). They started doing this in 2008, years before any antitrust action from the government.

Basically, Europe needs a rocketship tech company, flush with cash and trying to hire away everyone's engineers.
> Given how dependent high end computing is on TSMC (Amd, Apple, Nvidea, + more) it's quite unlikely to be a viable strategy.

That's a temporary advantage for Taiwan, and pretty much their only one.

A silicon atom is only around 0.1nm wide, so the end of scaling is coming up like a brick wall. We've got maybe a half dozen nodes left.

After that, industrial espionage, pumping up SMIC or some other new Chinese domestic equivalent at the time, and literally just leaking info publicly so the EU, US, and ROK are viable replacements once chips become truly a commodity will cut the dependence on Taiwan. At that point it's not worth facing China's nukes to tell them that they can't have Crimea^H^H^H^H^H^H Taiwan.
What it also means is that when the thing grows at a certain moment you see a parallel in the taxonomy you put in your local organisation with external " all knowledge ever" for instance on wikipedia portal > categories etc or any of the " all knowledge" systems like dewey or libray systems.

And in many cases you write the thing that has a linkage to already being in a place in other generic taxonomies e.g. when i my son has an exam on e.g. French Grammer we put some stuff in there to undertand these lessons, but this " structure " is also already on wikipedia. But the structure on wikipedia is just too much too handle. So I think that the end-situation for larger parts of the personal household knowledge management system overlaps with the structure found in " all knowledge ever" systems. So im in the phase that I try to look at the taxonomy of these systems e.g. wikipedia and also e.g .structure "mathemetics in the taxonomy that is on the wikipedia portal page for mathematics" (but slower since i only need what is in there what my kid has currently on school). The younger kid can then leverage on this and read up on this. Since we already made it for the older kid.

But I feel that exchanges between "external taxonomies" and " household taxonomies" have not yet been establised. E.g. I also have all my " stuff" in there like " household applicances" (warranties, but also comparison sheets, instructions etc) but the overal taxonomy and the " wording" is matchable with e.g. shops who sell household appliances. If there would be a taxonomy standardization on all of these things it would enable exchange information on meta level.
Some of my courses in college have just flipped to this model where most of class time is spent problem-solving (to greater or lesser degrees) and it's been incredibly effective. Granted, this is at a small liberal arts college, but learning through collaboration has been much more effective than just attending lectures (that I and many others zone out of)
How much do the Cartels depend on marijuana versus other harder drugs (like cocaine)? Maybe this won't affect the cartels at all. Also, hard to imagine Mexican government (who I've heard is in the pockets of cartels anyway) would do something that would hurt the cartels' bottom line.
No encryption, no backups, no on-device analysis (stats, charts), inconvenient to use: Not secure, not an app, not a good alternative.
Marginal tax rates are much higher in Europe at lower levels, so in order to pay someone 50% more, you would have to pay them 100% more for them to get a 50% pay increase to make up for the money taken by taxes (the mechanism that prevents wealth inequality)
Google trained a trillion-parameter AI language model
At very least having a big fat decoder costs you power and space, measuring the tradeoff in raw decoder performance is probably dependent on being an engineer working on it at Intel or AMD (or Apple). At very least, Zen 3 is a cutting edge microarchitecture on a cutting edge node with lots of transistors to play with, and it still decodes only half as many instructions per cycle as M1 - an unbelievably wide CPU, which is probably the way forward.

The "x86 tax" (if it exists, I guess) is usually estimated at somewhere on the order of 5% to 10% - which is a lot of money at scale but probably not enough for a total rethink.

The screenshot shows init-p01st.push.apple.com and ##-courier.push.apple.com, none of which have IPv6 AAAA records that I can see.
I thought the majority of their current problems stemmed from having lost the lead in fabs. You can't have the best chips if you don't have the best fab tech.
Agreed on serious house cleaning. There were rumors the single, absolutely botched CPU in the Cannon Lake family was released because certain Intel managers had bonuses tied to a 10nm launch. All those people need to be fired, that's for sure.
> there is no way I would trade in my free time for that extra cash

I don’t know what to tell you apart from you’re operating under some myths about North American companies.

Hours, leave, on-call, compensation are all better at my North American company but working in the UK than what you’re boasting about in a European company.

Why work for a European company? I have more free time but better pay where I am.
In America you can compensate yourself for this risk by simply getting a job where you are paid a higher salary than the average.

If everyone does that then it just drives the average salary up. In other words, the system can't survive unless there's a strata of people at the bottom who are below average and, by your definition, relying on a government that possibly won't help them.

In Europe as most people rely on the government everyone has an incentive to vote for parties that won't fail those people.
It'll be interesting to see how much network effect is left after a significant brand hit. One of the purposes of exchanges is to cross-connect networks. Quitting Facebook is hard, because you need to get all your friends to move. But if you're just a speculator seeking volatility and liquidity, switching is pretty easy.

The hashing power will decline drastically in a crash, as many existing miners will become uneconomical. If that happens, I'll be very interested to see where that mining power goes. Another currency? A 51% attack on the way out the door?
The most obvious example is thinking in classes and then mixing in behaviour from "magic" modules through inheritance and multiple mixins.

Phoenix for example uses the "use" macros like in my post above to mimic this horrible behaviour. In an erlangish approach you would mainly explicitly import and export functions from clearly specified modules.

If you specify a -behaviour (i know its not a perfect analogy but illustrates the point) that would not magically add extreme amounts of code paths but only force you to export the correct functions for what you try to do.
That's an odd one. If my Mac is offline it works just fine. Perhaps your filtering/firewalling isn't complete so it gets partial connections and then times out on the rest? If you do that in large quantities, any OS will start to show trouble.
Did the question ever occur to you why security was so lax?

This highly visible debacle, who does it serve politically?
Academic research shows that US multinationals consistently lead in adapting the best corporate management practices of any major country.[1]

Germany and Scandinavia come in a distant second, with Southern Europe falling significantly behind. The disparity in IT-intensive industries is particularly large.[2]

This is true even when comparing the productivity of workforces within the same market. I.e. European who work for American multinationals tend to be more productive than those who work for local multinationals. The short answer is that American management culture is really world-class. And, I think in software in particular, good management is a major force multiplier in terms of output and execution.

I love Montreal man. It is the Thailand of Canada. When I went there I felt free for the first time in my 30+ years in Canada.

Where are you now? I am thinking of moving to Thailand or Japan where people aren't so uppity about dating young women (or men, I respect all orientation)
It’s an apt comparison for the US dollar before they abandoned fractional reserve banking in 1971. The US went bankrupt, having more foreign dollar holders requesting their gold than they had gold.

But now the US dollar isn’t redeemable for anything, so they can’t go bankrupt.
> A silicon atom is only around 0.1nm wide, so the end of scaling is coming up like a brick wall. We've got maybe a half dozen nodes left.

That's still something like a hundred thousand to a million times smaller that what we can actually fabricate, right?
Yeah, that's why I counted it as a half node. Shipping, but awful yields. Meanwhile N5 is doing better than N7 at the same time in lifecycle from a yield perspective.
Could you please elaborate rather than giving a drive-by dismissal?

I'm explaining the fraud angle that everyone is concerned about.

Of course, if Tether works exactly as the Tether corporation claims (but has yet to prove) then there's nothing to see here. Seems that they would be quick to try to prove this to regulators, though.
I don’t think this is right: it completely ignores the iPod, for one. And the iMac plays a role here too.
I would quibble with the "fancy cars" part. Only the nomenklatura got government owned fancy cars and other perks --that reverted to the state if they lost the position. So it was a kind of state wealth that you temporarily had custody over.
You just can create a competitive business in Europe. Everything is overregulated and you will spend 70% of your time to comply with laws, instead of developing your product. Even in China companies have more freedom that in Europe. All that will end like Soviet Union.
Maybe there are some things where you just shouldn't use 3rd party analytics, if any.

> The ratio of excellent to useless people I experienced there was 1:40

This has to be hyperbole but the rest of your comment makes me think you're being serious.

I have only worked at small companies <50 people, so I don't have first hand experience with how waste can hide in large companies but 1:40 excellent to useless people? I can't believe it'd even be half that.

My guess is you thought those people were useless because you didn't understand the role they played in the company.

However, I'll admin again that I don't have first hand experience. I'd genuinely love to hear from others who have experience with large companies.
This may be a similar strategy to Binance's BNB token, where Binance operates BNB in a way similar to Bitfinex's "bailout" LEO token by committing their exchange revenue to token buybacks, forcing the token value to go up.

Real state is stupidly expensive everywhere where you would like to live (Greater Vancouver, Greater Toronto, Ottawa is getting more expensive), and salaries are not keeping up at all.
For example, cost of living in Vancouver and Seattle, disregarding the currency, is more or less the same, however in Vancouver it's like you earn 2k less than Seattle for an entry level Big 4 position.

>Each tether is created when someone gives up a dollar.

> The only concern is that maybe they don’t have enough reserves to cover all the tether they created.

So, it sounds like selling 1 USDT for $1 the Tether people put, lets be optimists here, $0.1 into the bank as reserve and pocket $0.9. Or do i miss something here?
Possibly a joke about their profile, which says they are selling a car and to comment an offer on any of their comments.

Having used react and redux for several years now, I'm a bit burnt out on how bloated and silly the entire front end has become. If I could decide for myself, I probably would use raw DOM or jQuery at this point.
