Is that so? How about systems testing of sensor and power packages in orbit, and conveniently upgrading them after a while?

Yes it was fun to be part of it. The cuts were not worth it to me but it was for the company. It's been many years and the company is still around.

It happens to all companies. New executives get hired and they make their points by cost cutting and increasing productivity. Employee morale is not really part of the equation.
Glad you like my writing. I hope the time in the rabbithole of posts gives you some ideas. Stay well.
I wouldn’t take the heroin version of anything unless the alternative was highly likely and extremely bad

Would I drink murky water in the woods? Maybe? Am I about to die of thirst and have no other clean water sources?

Would I take a vaccine made in a dude’s garage and posted on less wrong? Maybe? But only if there are no other options to keep me from a disease way worse than the horrors that covid actually is.

But it’s worth recognizing that this fear and noise in the system is the same type of thing that gave us an Arizona couple dead from drinking fish tank cleaner.
The outside researcher, Kim Nilsson, wrote a recent summary[1] in response to articles attempting to whitewash CoinLab's involvement in the case.

It sounds like you live in a country that is not Pakistan, where it's likely to make more sense for tech companies to operate within the system rather than staying outside of it. Even so, it would ultimately be up to you whether to trust any specific company with your "medical data", with one of the factors being whether they were bound by your country's legal system or not.

And who mentioned anything about blockchain? The philosophy of routing around censorship and end user empowerment is much older than blockchains, and that you're pigeonholing the ethos as "blockchain" just shows how much we've forgotten.

Was it a cover-up of bad behavior when Amazon refused to release the name and/or fire the engineer whose error caused the 2017 S3 outage? We don't fire or shame those people, and they arguably do just as much damage to the credibility of the organization they work for. Instead, a retrospective is held, they determine how it was possible such a thing could happen, and new checks and balances come out of it. Often you can even read about the entire thing, as is the case in the example I mention[1].

The Caliphate situation tells me that such a thing will likely happen again at the New York Times without better process to prevent these issues. That the institution of journalism wants to blame the person instead of generate learnings, I'm inclined to think nothing changed.

I'm in the market to replace our 11 year old car and the supply has just dried up with what we'd been looking at. Best case seems like maybe the summer, but at that point, I'd almost rather wait for the next model year.
Sadly this is intel clutching at whatever it can to prove it's relevant.

The real engineering feat of the M1 processor was how quickly it came to market and its performance per watt for real world usage of common web tasks and anything within the Apple ecosystem.

As nice as battery life benchmarks are, I know that the Intel CPU will ramp up and chew through it's maximum rated wattage while keeping under it's thermal limit. An Apple SOC on the other hand will hum along nicely.
I have an 8 core mac pro, 64 gb of ram. I bought a 16 gb ram M1 macbook air for my assistant so she could edit videos for me.

We did a render test using an app compiled for apple silicon. The fanless MacBook air beat the imac pro by a solid 15 percent or so.

I was expecting a result like that but it’s still stunning to see. We did the render test in camtasia, which is what I had used to make a screen recording.
> much easier time

Yes, this is exactly what I was getting at, that it is something "difficult."

Imagine trying to convince a person from the stone age (or even the early 1900s) that an amazing plate of sauteed vegetables, rice/beans, sliced fruits, and steak/fish/chicken were something you had to force yourself to eat.

They'd probably punch you in the face.

I am not a fan of ice cream, but perhaps I have never had the "good stuff."

In addition to some of the premium brands you mentioned, are there other even higher-end labels? And what is it, experientially, I should be looking for? What are the signs, good and bad, in the ingredients list of proper ice cream?
Sure. And you can set them up anywhere in the world.

I think they mean it is the last Intel CPU generation supported by Windows 7.
Moore's Law isn't dead. Dennard scaling died, Intel's process hit a wall, and CPU architectural improvements stalled while Intel was stalling, but transistor density improvements have stayed steady year after year since 1970.
Yeah I really don't understand why a zoom/skype video call absolutely MURDERS the battery on my laptop.

It's basically just video playback. How is it so hard on the CPU?
At VDS, there was 68000-based titler called Vidstar or Videostar, something like that. This was before the great DRAM price decline, so every effort was made to reduce the memory including the frame buffer. (on previous products they experimented with bubble memory and even shipped a product using CCD memory).

So the frame buffer was compressed using run-length coding. The hardware decoded it on the fly when generating the video. Anyway, we could get very high resolution this way with a tiny fast SRAM frame buffer, it looked great.

A problem was that even with the 68000, composing a page from text was quite slow: 10 seconds for single line, something like that.

One of the products was a teleprompter. To make smooth slow scrolling without complex sampling we moved the screen by changing the vertical sync position. This is not so easy to do well because the vertical sync detector in the monitor is pre-charged by the nearest horz sync (this is why NTSC has the double-rate serration pulses for interlace).

On the other hand, we did roll and crawl effects using fast 6809 assembly on other products. The font on this type was very crude- either fixed width characters like a terminal or semi-proportional spaced, where the width had to be a multiple of some number of pixels (so still character cells). You could get away with it on CATV bulletin board devices, but not in high quality titlers.
I can't see what the 6850 UART was for.

The serial ports on the back were attached to 6551 UARTs. The keyboard is parallel.
Congrats! Nice and clean design. You can tell you put in the time on the design and explaining the service.

> Like carpentry, electrician, construction, plumbing?

This may not be a popular opinion on HN, but it is much harder to learn how to be a passible electrician or plumber than it is to learn how to be a passible programer.

I worked plenty of construction jobs when I was younger. Electricians and plumbers are blue-collar jobs, but they tend to be pretty smart people.
They're extremely overpriced, are persnickety about fuel, and certain manufacturers (Belite, i'll call em out) couldn't care less after your check clears.

Isn't Apple's claim about the M1 best performance per watt not best performance overall?
> The real engineering feat of the M1 processor was how quickly it came to market...

Apple has been designing its own processors for 11 years and bought a team to do so that had been doing so for much longer than that. Also, nobody outside Apple knows how long they were working on M1 specifically.
>I don't have to imagine it. It exists.

Not sure what you mean, here. HTTP-based APIs have been really good, I think, for the world overall, and not just because exposing services this was allows you to tunnel arbitrary application data through firewalls!

Are the real blobs you're referring to the browser? I don't think that's fair, because a browser does far more than curl. And curl-level functionality is a lot simpler.

>a few dozen lines of C code...

...built and executed in a specific runtime environment. And since we are talking about distributed programs, by nature, you will be faced with solving all of those painful lessons we've learned about security, performance, and scale, but this time with your own custom starting assumptions.

I think it's quite fair to accept the "curl abstraction" (expressed in callback hell form as get(request, callback(response)) as a basic building block of your system, as opposed to doing something lower level.
I’m a lifelong Intel customer, Intel shareholder, recent seller of an Intel Macbook Pro 15” and current owner of a Ryzen 3700-based tower and two M1 Macs and I find these slides to be comically misleading cherry-picked bullcrap of the first order. Just fyi.
Why don't they fire back with new processors that don't sht themselves?
Yeah, that’s a pretty good troll on their part.
That was my sense as well, when I visited in 2019 for a conference.

A private exchange for rich people and established financial firms means no public filing.

That limits the cost of raising capital for the companies listed as they don’t have the same regulatory requirements for publishing financials.

The problem is that most private companies are terrible or they are on track to becoming public. The companies that aren’t terrible and start out on here will likely go public at some point and outgrow this.

If you are an accredited investor and want pre-public secondaries this will be a way to do it.

It's also video encoding/compression for your outbound stream. If you're sharing your video on the call, that is.

But wait... I never do. I join Webex calls all the time without enabling my camera, and it still eats 30% of anything available (memory, CPU, my patience, etc.)

So, I guess I'm not sure?
They can opt out if they do the math and decide that is worth breaking with precedent over.that said, let’s not pretend the maintainers made this decision lightly. It’s a thorny situation and this is the most ideal solution that was put forward, precisely because the (long-term) stability of machines running these distributions is of such importance.
Unnecessary let the industries work themselves out. Stick to protecting workers and providing healthcare.

Yes, by several orders of magnitude. The problem isn’t just browsers, it’s the massive pile of code that runs all these systems on the backend, many of which run on honest to god mainframes. You’re not going to flip a switch and get decades worth of software to run quantum proof encryption.
No threat intended. In my third paragraph I attempted to empathize with him. Yes, he cost me money but he is still human.

I truly do think it must be scary for him. I don't know of your involvement in Bitcoin at the time, but there was a much higher percentage of 'not good people' involved then. In the months after the Gox news originally broke, many people were discussing Mark's safety. I still wonder about his safety every time there is a major milestone in the Gox case - and will again when the case finally settles.

In my final paragraph I communicated that Mark's presence here, and the way he communicates will affect members of this community - especially important since this seems to be his first post here.
That part just sounds like Intel is admitting that their test suite is broken. I'm not sure why they'd mention that in their marketing pitch.
Intel is desperate.

I am sorry for the situation and the way things and have expressed sorrow continuously, starting with the bankruptcy press conference, and on multiple occasions. I have been helping people who contacted me or who posted on reddit, been in touch with MtGoxLegal and other creditor groups, and generally tried to keep everyone aware of their rights and needed procedures to be into the bankruptcy. I also have made sure third parties wouldn't enter the process in order to benefit from it (see Brock Pierce for example) and still continue today to offer help on reddit to those in need.

I do not think me being involved in a new exchange would help make money for creditors. I have provided counseling to other exchanges who asked me to on how to avoid repeating what happened with MtGox and tried to push as much as possible for MtGox creditors to get as much as possible. When I was due to receive over a billion dollar as share holder in the bankruptcy I also made sure everyone knew about it because switching back to a civil rehabilitation needed the support for most creditors and wasn't something I could do (since I'm not a creditor myself).

But of course if I can help in something more I'd be happy to. You will likely receive more than you initially deposited into MtGox through the bankruptcy, but I do not know what you call "significant recompense."

Also most creditors I have been interacting with have been thankful for the help and I do not think that many people still direct much ill toward me, at least it doesn't feel that way anymore, but that may have to do with the lack of death threats and insults on Twitter and such. I'm hoping everyone will be eventually able to move on, but first the bankruptcy must end, and CoinLab is preventing exactly that from happening.

I have been choosing my words carefully, even going as far as avoiding voicing my own opinion here and instead linking to some fact checking from another MtGox creditor.
I will however still say that CoinLab and more specifically Peter is clearly abusing his position and using stalling techniques to force MtGox and creditors to accept a settlement rather than having the whole process taking many more years, effectively taking everyone hostage for his own gain.

Staying silent will not do anything for creditors, and CoinLab clearly do not have creditors' benefit in mind. I do think this is important to point out.
Audio/video encoding is not cheap and it's questionable whether your device and software support hardware encoding. Decode is expensive too, but has better hardware support (which gives you the illusion that "just" video playback is somehow easy).

It's really one of the most expensive cpu bound tasks in contemporary computing. It's not too different from evaluating CNNs.

That last bit was intended to be humor, smsm42. Although it can be fun.

I totally understand not having the time. I research a lot, and WP's very helpful. So I like to pay back, and if it takes me an hour to discover something, I might add that. Takes a minute. Stick a cite next to a couple of sentences, 99.8% solid. (Unless they have a secretary keeping an eye on their bio. ;-)

Look, anything you have time to improve ... 5 minutes ... can be helpful. I gave several examples. Adding a bit here and there is unlikely to attract 'petty bureaucrats'. They exist, but so do bees. I might hear from someone twice a year, and one of them will be a thanks. It's not like it was 10 years ago.

Anybody who complains, easy to look at their qualifications. Logged in or anonymous? How many edits lately? Sound reason for revert? If not revert back ... and walk away. If so, then: that's collaboration for ya.

When it comes to controversy, WP can be a best bet, in the citations. MANY eyes look those pages over.

Are there situations where the people in control cannot even change the system if they wanted to, based on the interests that have been set up? And situations where a minority's interest in preserving the status quo prevent what could be an overall better situation for everyone else?

Also, this sounds a lot like, "As long as you're under my roof you'll follow my rules, young man". Which is not always reflective of a healthy situation.

Those 1px GIFs were so that some server other than the one you are currently interacting with can track you. So if I go to nytimes.com I might get served a 1px GIF from BigAdTechCorp.com. The proposal is that all images, text, and data only come from the server you are currently pointing your browser at. So if you go to nytimes.com then only nytimes.com can send you text and images, only the nytimes.com server sees what content you request and when you request it. Once upon a time people purchased printed newspapers and magazines and there weren't all the invasive ways to spy on how long readers engaged with articles and images in said periodicals and yet we all managed. Marketing firms made ad buys all the same with this old tech and many successful ad campaigns happened, all without the invasive tracking.

I like Donald Knuth's approach to versioning. Each new release of TeX has one additional digit appended, the most recent version being 3.14159265. The version numbers asymptotically approach π, suggesting the code is converging towards (but never quite reaching) perfection.
