I am almost certain that, at a certain point, the US military will use Starship to deploy some extra forces (specialists and equipment) to a distant theater of operations under a tight schedule. Or perhaps evacuate the sick and the wounded, if they can tolerate this rough ride but need to see a top hospital urgently. So as far as humans go, that will probably happen.

A regular service for civilian customers, that is another story. Just like Concorde, it might prove economically infeasible.
It is not the number of pardons that is unusual (and it’s unsurprising that this administration has done less work than previous ones), but the sense that these pardons are so clearly in service of Trump’s personal agenda rather than true acts of clemency.

Can you find examples of bad pardons from other Presidents? No doubt. But not on this scale.

He warned that their society is prone to endemic corruption, that merging the worst aspects of Chinese culture with Capitalism would be a very dangerous combination. He said that China could become an economic and military rival only exceeded by the united States over the next few centuries, so he was explicitly thinking long term. This was at a time when most Westerners thought of China as an archaic, irrelevant joke.

That would definitely be crossing the line. But I wonder if this behaviour of Apple is another avenue of stifling competition - that is how many smart people this will get involved that otherwise could have worked on a competing product? Then you can see how much resources any company dealing with Apple has to commit just to make sure their software keep up with Apple updates - that inhibits their growth and thus keeps Apple on top.

An Ampere or other Arm server chip would fit the bill. Aside from Apple, no one is making arm chips to serve the laptop/desktop segment. So there's this HUGE gap between the endless sea of embedded/mobile Arm chips and then jumps to a handfull of mega-many-core server chips.

Apple is finally filling in one of the Arm gaps with a mid-tier chip that can handle a desktop load efficiently while an efficient GPU can handle graphics without thermally clobbering each other.
I can't wait till they make second stage landing and reusing boring.
Starlink is a brilliant move: a profitable excuse for lots of launches, each paying for itself, to deliver lots of satellites per launch, with each cheap enough so if one or many are lost it’s no big deal, and if it works the resulting constellation will hugely disrupt the telecom and real estate industries, all while proving reusability which no customer wants to be lead in exploring.
I have on occasion, and when working on custom array types I've added support for being offset with optionally compile-time known offsets.
As StrideArrays.jl matures and I write more libraries making use of it, I may use 0-based indices more often. The idea of dynamic offsets when they aren't needed bothers me, even though I've benchmarked that as being pretty meaningless.
The bigger problem is just that OffetArrays are a wrapper, and there's a Julia bug where TBAA information on wrappers often gets lost, so that the compiler reloads the pointer you're loading from on every iteration of a loop. Aside from that being slow itself, it also causes the autovectorizer to fail. This causes a severe regression when it occurs. Performance should be fine in other cases.
LoopVectorization or `@simd ivdep` should also avoid the problem.

For the most part, my preference on 1 vs 0 is weak, and for coffee other people are likely to look at i do want to make it easy to understand / not full of surprises.

What prospects are there for beefing up hardware to run more DSP and bring down latencies?

Well that's the million dollar question. We're imagining things moving (hopefully) along similar lines to how GPUs have developed, with dedicated processors for audio processing. It's pretty clear though that the current model of distributing binaries for the CPU is not magically going to enable hardware vendors to sell audio accelerator cards, and hence why we feel a change of direction for the audio industry is required.

The way we see this being enabled would be a JIT based approach where the audio driver translates device independent code to run on their given hardware (and the 'soft' rendering on the CPU which is where we currently are for machines without dedicated audio accelerators).

The design of SOUL has this sort of support in mind, with per sample processing and the parallel structure of the DSP still visible within the language, which allows the driver to make threading decisions at the JIT stage, enabling parallelism.

They're very complex, very stateful devices which also run their own compiled shader code. Not to mention auxiliary DSPs like video decoders (not sure if M1 has it as part of GPU or a separate block), power gating control and many many more.

They may have in order of 100 registers to talk to them and they're horribly proprietary with pretty much no standardisation.

> too many programs with a single exception handler right

For a number of useful applications, this is exactly the right, correct, and most useful approach.

I currently maintain several successful (within our commercial niche) 100kLOC+ programs that largely use such an architecture.

It puts the error-handling code in one place, and enables common logging, recovery, filtering and display.

It means that the vast majority of the code can happily just assume that the world is full of unicorns and light.

And given that it is written in Java, the program just largely keeps on running, even in the presence of bugs and weird edge cases, and suchlike, a feature our users really like.

Human are pretty good at going "OK, so that part of the program is having a bad day, I'll report the bug and keep on using the rest of the program".

So they may say one hour old, five days old, six months old, etc. a fifty year old typically doesn’t say they are a half centenarian either. Now decades are used to express an age range like so and so is a nonagenarian to avoid being specific.

There is a long tradition of thought about mercy. Law has to be rendered at a sufficiently general level in order than it can encompass every relevant case. This, the argument goes, means written law cannot properly deal with context. Many of us realise that, sometimes, the context in which a crime is committed bears upon how just or unjust it is, even if that fact is not accommodated in law.

Anyway, one enduring argument for mercy is that can be exercised on those rare occasions where there is some overwhelming contextual argument for why the general law should be overridden, e.g., the Greek play Antigone is effectively built around just such a case.

Not that this argument has anything to do with Trump's unashamed cronyism and self-aggrandisement. But my point is that mercy isn't just an excuse for base corruption.
This is not true -- double jeopardy applies to the same jurisdiction. You can certainly be charged in state and federal court for the same crime.

This is not mentioned anywhere in the text of the pardon power of the Constitution.

Exactly. The only reasonable use of the word “dog-whistle” is ”’dog-whistle’ is a dog-whistle used to signal support of political correctness and belonging to the left-wing elite and/or an unwillingness to engage in rational argument”.

> an argument for corruption/immunity for the sake of comity

It's not an endorsement of corruption, rather an acknowledgement that the price of comity includes some corruption. This seems like an anti-fragile mechanism to me: in exchange for the inevitable but relatively minor injustice of corrupt pardons, we can pre-empt behavior that could lead to all-out political war that destroys the entire system.

Yes for sure. My cousin and moved to chicago into a $1000/per month rental unit in west chicago. I found a minimum wage job as a gas station clerk, my cousin refused to get a job and preferred being a vagrant, I had to kick him out since I couldn't afford to pay the full rent without a roomate and I had maxed out the one credit card I had. He bounced around from place to place tricking family and friends into believing he is working on finding job. One of my family contacts even got him a job at subway in suburbs of chicago but he refused to work there for more than a week. He eventually ended up on the streets. I am not quite sure if he could've used an govt assistance since he didn't have a legal status in the country. I eventually found a better paying job at a hospital picking up soiled laundry but I lost touch with my cousin, he didn't have a cell phone back then.

Years ago I taught a high school typing class in a K-12 school. The school didn't have the funds to get a commercial typing program so I wrote my own typing program. It evolved over time with features to help me track the students' progress etc. One day we had a school open house where all the parents could come to school. We had a bunch of different activities set up in different classrooms and I ended up getting assigned to the 3rd grade classroom to set up my typing program so anyone coming through could test their typing speed. It was a DOS program and I didn't want people using anything other than my typing program, so I modified it so you couldn't quit the typing program. Over the course of the day the 3rd graders were hanging out in their homeroom not really doing anything productive. Of course the computer was a novel attraction and they were just smashing keys and exploring my program's UI. Eventually at one point I noticed that they had somehow crashed my program with a segfault in what had otherwise become a pretty stable piece of software. To this day I have absolutely no idea what the bug was.
