The injector only works properly at elevated fuel pressure otherwise it would just drip out. Like a shower head with no pressure, it would just dribble out.

Valve lets in a mixture of air and fuel, not just fuel, and allows compression to happen.
If that wasn’t the case you’d have to have a mixture injector that closes during compression and explosion. Without it, the explosion would expand in the intake runner instead of pushing down the piston.

I take it Jim fired you at some point in your career.

Unless you're arrogant enough to look back at everything Jim's designed, from the DEC Alpha 21164, 21264, VAX 8800, K7, A4, A5, Tesla Autopilot hardware, and of course Zen, and then say "Yeah this guy that did Nehalem is more talented..."

I would work for Jim Keller for free. Lightning strikes everywhere he goes, that's not by accident. No one is that lucky - no one. I said on my investing blog that Keller would get pushed out by Intel's shit corporate structure and I was right. Intel isn't rotten, its gangrenous, and there's a lot of tissue that needs to be excised if the patient is going to be saved.

Everyone who listens to Jim Keller ends up with better products and more sales. Every time. Without fail.

If you think that isn't being the "real deal", there's something wrong with you, not Jim.

meanwhile, disk is potentially getting to be as fast as ram, throughput wise.

128 lanes of pcie 4.0 is 256GBps iirc. epyc's 8 channel ddr4-3200 otoh is good for 208GBps.

Let's Encrypt stopped a little short, using 24x nvme disks (it fits in a 2U though so that's nice)[1]. that could be up to 96 of 128 pcie links in use. with the right ssds, working on large data-objects, that'd be somewhere a bit under 192GBps versus the max 208GBps of their ram.

in truth, ram's random access capabilities are far better, there's much less overhead (although nvme is pretty good). and i'm not sure i've ever seen anyone try to confirm that those 128 lanes of pcie on epyc aren't oversubscribed, that devices really can push that much data around. note that this doesn't necessarily even have to mean using the cpu; pci p2p is where it's at for in-the-know folks doing nvme, network, and gpu data-pushing; epyc's io-die is acting like a data-packet switch in these conditions, rather than having the cpu process/crunch these peripheral's data.

I remember a story about someone getting arrested for "child porn" going through an airport when some TSA agent found a video of a mans kids taking a bath on his phone. I'm not sure what happened in that case, but it has made me a) hesitant to take similar video and photos of my kids (even though bathtime is really fun and I want memories! My parents have plenty of bathtime pics of me as a kid, and I'm glad!), and b) a lot more skeptical whenever I hear someone claim "child porn". Similar to how "registered sex offender" has lost a great deal of weight since apparently cities around the country apply this label to drunk people pissing on buildings.

This doesn't invalidate ALL such labels, it only means that the label itself is NOT ENOUGH for me to assume I know what happened. In short, "the system" has lost its credibility with me. (The same applies to other labels like "convicted felon" or "ever arrested". The ease with which these labels are applied, especially as the result of a corrupt plea bargain culture, and a society where all LEOs have a "marshal law bubble" around them, ruin the effect for me. And I wish it ruined the effect for more people.)

maybe. Measles was around for years and deadly. It (much like covid) could spread before it killed. Also like COVID it doesn't kill everyone it infects.

HIV/AIDS mutates a lot, but doesn't seem to be mutating in such a way as to not kill the host, you can be infected for 5-10 years before it kills you which is plenty of time to pass it on. It appears that a tiny number of people have a genetic immunity to HIV/AIDS, and so they could be the only survivors - which would mean that left unchecked humans will mutate to not be vulnerable to AIDS. (modern medical treatment has made significant progress on HIV/AIDS that I'm ignoring for this point)

> When you buy precious metals, they also have an intrinsic value.

There is over $7.5 Trillion in gold in reserves held by governments and institutions as a store of value. [1]

Only around $17B worth of gold is used for electronics annually (~320 tons) [2].

Thus annual electronics usage is around 0.22% of the world's gold reserves. Pretending like the "intrinsic value" of gold is from its use in industry is ridiculous and ignorant. The value of gold comes from the fact that the world uses gold as a store of value -- because it does not oxidize and is relatively rare.

The same attributes that make gold a good store of value make bitcoin an even better store of value -- one that isn't simply a protection against inflation but is naturally deflationary given the limited supply.

maybe it's tongue in cheek but in all honesty, I find it extremely hypocritical that the Ayatollah of Iran, dis-information news organizations (esp those based in China) and now CP are fine on Twitter but god forbid some people on the right wing use the "#notmypresident" or "#learntocode" hashtags - both of which were extensively used by the left in 2016 without any repercussions what so ever.

It's true that long term adoption will likely require "layer 2" solutions, but it's the worst form of "premature optimisation" to deliberately limit "layer 1" and force users into a single "official" proposed solution.

A better approach would have been to let the block size scale in line with average connection speeds and storage capacities (per dollar), and let multiple competing groups implement different "layer 2" approaches that users can opt in to.
Yeah, I'll concede that "decent" is too much credit. Even on "true multi user systems" the simplistic models *nix don't really work, and you end up seeing people using combinations of virtual machines and containers as ham-fisted sandboxes.

Still, I think it was a big oversight to provide nothing at all in BeOS. Maybe they could have come up with a better solution than the backwards-compatible status quo.

Or maybe personal computers would have just been better off in an alternate timeline where networking wasn't as pervasive and we still got software on disks, and mailed off for a hard copy of GNU...

>What are some of the disadvantages of unions?

As someone who spent a lot of time as a member of a once powerful Canadian Union, the downside is that you get what you get, losing individual bargaining ability. You have a vote, but majority rules, and overnight you could be working under terms and conditions you don't necessarily agree with. Promotions and internal transfers are handled by seniority. The collective trumps the individual. Nothing inherently wrong with that, but you can't please everyone.

This has been done in popular commercial databases for decades, and is thoroughly researched. As far as I know, these types of architectures are no longer used at this point due to their relatively poor scalability and write performance. I don't think anyone is designing new databases this way anymore, since it only ever made sense in the context of spinning disk.

The trend has been away from complex specialization of data structures, secondary indexing, etc and toward more general and expressive internal structures (but with more difficult theory and implementation) that can efficiently handle a wider range of data models and workloads. Designers started moving on from btrees and hash tables quite a while ago, mostly for the write performance.

Write performance is critical even for read-only analytical systems due to the size of modern data models. The initial data loading can literally take several months with many popular systems, even for data models that are not particularly large. Loading and indexing 100k records per second is a problem if you have 10T records.
That's not the way to do it. If anyone can break out of Plex they are on your local network.

Besides, if you're going through all that networking hassle, you're better off doing things right. Get a real firewall like pfSense, then setup a separate network just for outside facing services. To access those services locally create firewall rules that allow traffic 1 way: from your trusted network to your outside facing network. While you're at it, consider making separate networks for IoT devices, and maybe even another for untrusted guest devices. You can use VLANs or physical interfaces if your firewall has enough ports.
C is intimidating mostly for memory and strings handling, but on a microcontroller you wont use those, leaving only straightforward parts.

Funny, a common refrain of those very accounts is "Twitter overmoderates left wing accounts and does nothing with right wing hate speech".

Hell yeah me too! Some of my coworkers like it, but there are a few out there who basically don't want to learn something new.. I have been using Ramda professionally for about two years now and I love the heck out of it. My org is using more and more TypeScript which makes using Ramda a little harder but it still works pretty well in this context too. I have been working on a test data inventory project with Ramda recently and it has made the implementation so much nicer than it would have been otherwise. I started using pipeP (by defining it with pipeWith) and omg it's so great for dealing with a mix of async and non async calls.
Look, no offenses, but that's terrible and shallow criticism:

> You can't be the successor of a country,

The we to whom it is addressed constitute a country, and can certainly be collectively successors to the past state of that country

> you even more can't be the successor of the present instant happening right now

But the time it referenced began in the (close, but still) past from the time it was recited, and the emphasis on that as already a past that we are already successors to when we contemplate it fits quite well with the theme of continuous progress of the poem.

> It's content-free, like a bad political speech. "We are striving to forge our union with purpose." As opposed to striving to forge it accidentally?

No, striving for common direction instead of perfection (though putting it that way in a poem would be inexcusable); you need to stop reading sentences alone out of context: “...that doesn’t mean we are striving to form a union that is perfect. We are striving to forge our union with purpose.”

> It's clichéd: "We close the divide because we know to put our future first, we must first put our differences aside.... while we have our eyes on the future, history has its eyes on us."

That’s a fairly specific reference, not cliché.

> It uses rhyme for cheap effect: "We seek harm to none and harmony for all."

That's...not using rhyme for cheap effect.

> It is a shame, when there are black poets like Derek Walcott out there

Kind of an odd alternative to hold out to a US inaugural poet, as Walcott is, while certainly Black (as now an absolute majority of such poets have been) both not-American and dead.

> I expected something as bad as Maya Angelou

Pretty much all the negative criticism of “On the Pulse of Morning" is of it as a decontextualized text, rather than in its actual role. And it take someone taking the same approach to Gorman’s work and blindly expecting everyone else to do the same to even begin to think the sentence the phrase “as bad as Maya Angelou” is something that could even sensibly be used, non-ironically, in this context.

> brutally reviewed by Paul Beatty

That isn't a review, of a throw away statement of distaste for a work. Which isn't the same thing.

> People get exposed to this kind of "uplifting" stuff and will think that's all there is.

While it is certainly not a requirement for poetry to be either targeted at a broad audience or uplifting, any art has a context and intended audience, and inaugural poetry is a pretty specialized niche where both breadth of appeal and uplifting character are, usually, things that makes sense. Having more depth than just that is, of courses, to be hoped for, but Gorman’s piece did.
> The engineer working on CAD, layout, specs, RFQs, Suppliers, Equipment, etc are hardly going to revolutionize anything. Their work is valuable but they’re entirely replaceable.

You just named all specialist who would get N-times the salary outside of the industry.

That's the problem of the industry.

A man who can "just write a CAD plugin" in semi industry would probable be an instant senior hire in any CAD vendor.

A mid-level semi PM would be a senior PM, GM level manager, or a COO anywhere else.

Analog IC designer is by default a top-tier EE.

A fab "junior technician" is likely an engineering, or physics master, or more likely a PhD in Taiwan.

And so on, and on.
> Because the alternative, where you either allow your platform to be flooded with swastikas and pornography or get sued for every single mistake you make, is unworkable.

The current model isn't workable either. Social media networks and their ad-driven models have hollowed out our democracies by sowing outrage and division at every opportunity. If one believes "The Social Dilemma", these networks have a dial for tuning public opinion that can even steer election outcomes (if you subscribe to the "Russia used bots to hack the 2016 election" theory, then you must agree).

Maybe we should rethink the role of social media networks. Perhaps they monopolize too much communication to trust them to curate which voices are amplified and which are suppressed. The discourse around this issue has been really strange, with the usual critics of corporate power rallying to defend social media giants and their rights and qualifications to curate such an enormous portion of our collective speech. Perhaps we should consider these networks to be more "dumb pipes" rather than "curators", and instead we should expect these networks to provide us with our own curation/moderation mechanisms. If there really is no workable social media model--that is, if they really can't deliver some net-positive social good (or at least some smaller net harm, like sex work, drugs/alcohol, tobacco, etc), then maybe we should regulate them out of existence?

You present a view of journals as an outlet for correct results. Realistically, that's not possible, and I wish more people accepted that it's not possible. If a result is confirmed in many studies by many authors using many datasets and many methodologies, that's how we know we can trust a result. I personally do not put much weight on a single paper's results unless there's something special about it.

The most important thing is that everything about the investigation is open: the methodology (including everything not found in the paper), the programs, the data. It's more like posting code for a large project on Github and then new researchers make PRs to correct bugs or extend the program in useful ways.
