The little spur of Minnesota up into Canada is shown as not worth having fought over.

I would value more a map of differences between this and the previous census, showing which areas somebody had moved out of or into.
I agree with respect to AMD's situation. I think that was the right decision for them then.

I'm saying that there is a difference between the two situations and there are geopolitical factors at play that mean the answer here is not as simple as splitting Intel into a foundry company and a chip design company, due to what we saw happen to AMD's foundry when they split.

I think it's a bit misleading to say that there are 3 top node players right now. Samsung, TSMC, and Intel, while from a business perspective do compete, from a technical perspective TSMC seems to have a fairly significant lead. Like you said, the price increases dramatically every node. If Intel were to split, why would that new foundry company bother investing a huge amount of money in nodes they can't yet produce at volume? Also, Samsung while close to TSMC in competition at this point, still produces an inferior product. There seems to be solid evidence of this in the power consumption comparison of AMD vs NVIDIA top end cards.[1]

My point being, if Intel were to follow the same road as AMD and split up, we could find ourselves in a situation that while better for Intel's business, would arguably leave the world worse off overall by leaving TSMC as the only viable manufacturer for high end chips.

This was a well-written article, but I don't think it came from someone with a deep understanding of semiconductor technology and fabrication.

Intel hasn't lost to Apple and AMD because they employ idiots, or because of their shitty company culture (in fact, they're doing surprisingly well in spite of their awful company culture). Intel lost because they made the wrong bet on the wrong type of process technology. 10 years ago (or thereabouts), Intel's engineers were certain that they had the correct type of process technology outlined to successfully migrate down from 22nm to 14nm, then down to 10nm and eventually 7, 5, and 3nm. They were betting on future advances in physics, chemistry, and semiconductor processes. Advances that didn't materialize.

EUV turned out to be the best way to make a wafer at lower transistor size.

So now Intel's playing catch up. Their 10nm process is still error-prone and far from stable. There are no high-performance 10nm desktop or server chips.

That's not going to continue forever though. Even on 14nm, Intel chips, while not as fast as Apple's M1 or AMD's Ryzen 5000 series, are still competitive in many areas. Intel's 14nm chips are over 6 years old. The first was Broadwell in October 2014. What do you think will happen when Intel solves the engineering problems on 10nm, and then 7nm? And then 5nm?

It took AMD 5 years to become competitive with Intel, and over 5 to actually surpass them.

If you think the M1 and 5950X are fast, then wait till we have an i9-14900K on 5nm. It'll make these offers look quaint by comparison.

EDIT: I say this as a total AMD fanboy by the way, who bought a 3900X and RX 5700 XT at MicroCenter on 7/7/2019 and stood in line for almost five hours to get them, and as someone who now has a Threadripper 3990X workstation. I love AMD for what they've done... they took us out of the quad-core paradigm and brought us into the octa-core paradigm of x86 computing.

But I am under no illusions that they're technically superior to Intel. Their process is what allows them to outperform Intel, not their design. I guarantee you that if Intel could mass produce their CPUs on their 7nm process (which is far, far more transistor dense than TSMC's 7nm), AMD would be 15-25% behind on performance.

It isn't so much that AMD is succeeding because they're technically superior... they're succeeding because Zen's design team made the right bet and because Intel's engineering process team made the wrong bet.
That was my thought. If I had the money, I would setup one or two clinics in Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa, Juarez or Tijuana, fill it with really good, English speaking health professionals and promote the heck out of it in the USA for medical tourism.

> We have a marketplace of ideas where bad ideas die and good ideas spread.

If that were true, neither QAnon nor "Stop the Steal" would have gone anywhere. Instead, they spread like wildfire to the point where their adherents literally attacked the democratic process.

The marketplace of ideas only works that way when its participants are rational actors with good judgement, and it's becoming increasingly clear that is not actually the case.
Something that helps me is having 2 laptops (though I'd imagine it would work just as well with 2 accounts on the same computer). My work-provided laptop stays in my work area at all times, and I don't put anything work-related on my personal laptop. I also took at least an hour or two customizing each one (name, background, dock) so that it feels different than the other. That way when I hop off my work laptop at the end of the day, if I decide to pick up my personal laptop, it immediately feels like I'm doing something different.
> However, that's undesirable for reasons that should be obvious.

Not to mention entirely ignorant of the very notion of our government being ostensibly "by the people, of the people, for the people" - i.e. the government itself being a representation of society. So if society itself is broadly rejecting some viewpoint on its own, then it's kind of pointless for the government to get involved.
There is evidence to the contrary that seems to be relevant here.

To wit, it's an "open-source business" providing the open source software people apparently feel very strongly about, not a "community volunteer project without the pressure".
"We have a marketplace of ideas where bad ideas die and good ideas spread."

Perhaps it should work that way, but in a US context, I think this is demonstrably false. Many people participating in the marketplace of ideas hold diametrically opposing ideas and posit contradictory facts. There is no winnowing of falsehood from truth.
I'm not sure what you mean by "programmers terminology".

0x31 0xC0 is disassembled to "xor eax, eax".

This is not nitpicking, as there's an important difference. The "xor eax, eax" instruction affects CPU flags [1], while "mov eax, 0" doesn't [2].

> It isn't actually implemented as such

The implementation is independent of the meaning of the instruction set. There are many implementations of x86 instructions with differing levels and kinds of optimization, so we can't make general statements about that.

If individual companies developing their own chips is a trend, and it sure seem like it is starting to, intel has a lot more competition they have to contend with. Before is always a buy, now add build into the equation. That’s where intels problems are coming. That’s a lot of head winds, they can capture that by splitting and going the TSMC route, and specialize further on the design and use some form of licensing model like ARM.

This is like the Microsoft pivot into cloud to save itself.

I'm not in favour of revenge. But I find it irritating how rarely people resort to it. For example if I was a father and somebody killed and raped my daughter. I'd like to think of myself as someone who'll kill that person if he receives anything less than a life sentence - or maybe even anyway. I'd be aware that this is a crime and I'll have to serve a prison sentence for it myself - I'd even see the point of it - a society cannot tolerate revenge. But I'd non the less feel morally obligated to do it. The only possible good reason not to resort to revenge would be if there is a possibilty of being wrong about the identity of the culprit.

That this doesn't happen more often just shows to me that most wo:men are cowards. Not just that - our society even systematically rewards and encourages cowardry by reframing it as smartness or sober-mindedness. But this is true in a more general sense and not restricted to revenge of course. This can be observed on a daily basis at work, at school, pretty much anywhere.

and also googled that solution with xrandr on Linux, but at least on Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04 there is a problem with a nautilus, because it has huge glitches on an emulated xrandr as it is not running on that screen. Also you can't drag and drop windows to that screen as well, because window manager does not recognize it as a desktop. But mouse pointer can go there and I was actually able to share it with Deskreen and was able to see mouse pointer moving, but with huge glitches on background. This soulution turned out to be of no use.
As one of those neighbors and colleagues, I genuinely thank you for sharing this perspective.

As mentioned in another discussion, I used to be a Copyleft Zealot, but I've come to realize an absolutist insistence on "Free as in Freedom" and the "Four Freedoms", without allowing businesses a viable path to profitability, is an obsolete attitude. It has become incredibly easy and cheap to distribute copies of large programs, even as a service over the internet.

Sure, hobbyist projects and foundations for FOSS software still exist, but important infrastructure projects like Mongo, Redis, and now Elastic have all recently changed their licenses from "true" FOSS to "some rights reserved".

One might argue that the point of FOSS is not to make money. But GNU/FSF have said repeatedly that it's OK to "sell" your software. How do you do that when a FAANGMO can easily out-scale you and put you out of business?

If I were to start an actual software company, I would give very serious consideration to licenses like Polyform[0] over "true" FOSS, at least for the important, money-making parts where it would be impossible to compete with a FAANGMO.

I imagine the only truly secure way to do it would be to transcribe the meeting (automatically or manually) and leak the transcription. The video/audio could be shared with one or two trusted journalists to prove it's legitimate (barring sophisticated deepfakes), and the journalists could post the transcript.

Maybe in theory even a transcription could be unsafe if the server actually manipulated the words in real-time in some way so that different listeners would hear different word synonyms at certain points, but that seems very convoluted and unlikely.

> weaknesses of x86 and CISC in general

"RISC" and "CISC" distinctions are murky, but modern ARM is really a CISC design these days. ARM is not at all in a "an instruction only does one simple thing, period" mode of operation anymore. It's grown instructions like "FJCVTZS", "AESE", and "SHA256H"

If anything CISC has overwhelmingly and clearly won the debate. RISC is dead & buried, at least in any high-performance product segment (TBD how RISC-V ends up fairing here).

It's largely "just" the lack of variable length instructions that helps the M1 fly (M1 under Rosetta 2 runs with the same x86 memory model, after all, and is still quite fast).

I am not interested in models. I'm interested in actions.

You want some guarantee that AWS, Google, or Elastic will treat the OSS community right. That guarantee doesn't exist. People bought in to Elastic's "guarantee" on this front years ago, and that did not pay off. There's no such thing as a model that stands the test of time; there's only today. Does it solve your problems? Is it licensed in a way that preserves the freedom of its users and maintainers? Is there recourse if that changes?

There's nothing wrong with using a licensing model like the one you describe. If don't want Amazon to use your software, then license it as such, whatever. However, that software is not open source.

Furthermore, if you change a project which is open source, to a licensing model which is not, it's a dick move.

It's not important if the needs of the business are "reasonable", we could argue about that but it's beside the point. Open source has no relationship with the requirements of your business. It has a specific meaning, and if you betray those principles, you betray the people who trusted you on those terms.
The US president has much more in common with a 17th to 19th century European monarch than the current European constitutional monarchs do.

The issue isn't just military equipment though. When your entire economy is reliant on electronic chips, it's untenable for all of those chips to come from a geopolitical opponent. That gives them a lot of influence over business and politics without having to impact military equipment.

Also, if you are overweight, did not exercised for long, but are ambitious, that is the prime situation where it is easy to cause yourself an injury. Fairly fit means that your body is adjusted exercise at least somewhat and joints and such can withstand.

Does not being able to call itself Elasticsearch make a fork inoperable? I don't think wanting to protect a brand they've been investing in for years is unreasonable.

Don't get me wrong. It would be great if Elastic, Redis and co didn't have to do this (change license) but AWS does pose an existential threat to their business models long term. I'd rather a standardised, so there's less fear around interpretations, more restrictive license than the businesses and _future_ ones becoming unviable.

It's also the American conception of free speech, which culturally differs from most countries. In the US, if a private company censors arbitrarily, it's still freedom of speech because you're still allowed to build your own competing business, and anyway it's your fault for agreeing to the legal terms and conditions. Even if it's a monopoly, Americans view freedom as something only governments remove.

thanks, I am horrified by what happened especially in the Vorayuth Yoovidhaya case. But I wasn't shocked, because as your fiance might know is just the tip of the iceberg. If we look at what shameful things our people in power get away with in the West, it's not hard to imagine what the situation looks like in a developing systems/states. If you look at what happened in some of the elections around the world and the dismantling of institutions for profit by kleptocrats and rent-seeking billionaires, it seems these days Western nations are often on par with some developing countries.

Also I don't want to paint the past better than the present by insinuating our Western way of punishing crime is "correct" while their traditional way was in any form more "pure" and better fitting for them. Foucault does a good job on how we came to our system in the West https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discipline_and_Punish

But also I'm not a missionary who wants to go to visit the Jawari to "bring them god".

Unfortunately I don't have an answer because if you drill down to the roots of power then it's all violent no matter how well dressed up it is with language. And "justice" is an incredibly slippery and ambiguous word meaning 5 different things to 2 people.

For Thailand what I see as a bigger problem than the monarchy is the military. It doesn't matter what case people "legally" have against an army general (and by extension any professional soldier in Thailand). They're normally off-limit to law enforcement and cases usually don't become public. They're also the gatekeepers to big business. Both things are problematic. I think trying to navigate and make sense of power there is not difficult as long as people keep in mind the history of its stakeholders.

I'm optimistic seeing how younger generations understand and question these power structures (better informed because of the Internet). I'm worried about violence and revolution since anyone can do a coup but the question is what will they do the next day. In the end any type of system will never just pack up and agree that it's time to make room for a replacement. (or it takes generations not years) New ideas on top of the toxic base we know well enough from Tech, but replacing a base is a trade off so hard it's ofc always a crime within the existing structure.
"I believe there was fraud in the election." That statement alone should not draw censorship, but on Twitter it can get you suspended, and in my opinion that is absolutely wrong.
