In the first diagram, how is that considered a supercharger if there's no use of mechanical energy from the engine to drive the turbine? Isn't that technically just a turbocharger?
I didn't get a degree in EE although I've done quite a bit of it. I really liked The Art of Electronics by Horowitz and Hill, which has an associated lab book you could use for little projects. It covers a lot of real world issues that are missing from the more ideal academic books.

Also, I'd mention that the use of cgs in Purcell can be a bit annoying as you move on (it's very physics based) since most constants (permittivity, dielectrics, etc) are usually in mks instead. Those are used in the EE books.

One thing you will definitely want to learn is SPICE for simulation (any real job will probably be using Spectre or something built into your tool set), and luckily there are quite a few free ones. I'd recommend LTSpice for simple projects. Similarly there are "free" tools for building and testing FPGAs for the digital simulation side.
Some "features" are harmful to the users and only exist for the convenience of Google and other data mining and spying companies.
Phlogiston: The Matter of Fire (2003)
That's my view, yeah. The figure here is the disaffected noble (or intellectual) who disdains society, creates his own values, and eventually tragically fails partly because he can't totally leave society behind. I think Nabokov loves those characters. I don't think he's criticizing them.

Yes I agree he probably would have loved a character like that, though I think part of the attraction is the recognition of their inevitable tragic end (with the implicit recognition that they are mistaken about the world).

Humbert of course is not in that mould (or not entirely), and I'm not saying Nabokov would be so crass as to write himself into Humbert, but he shows a lot of sly sympathy for him in Lolita, and his other books also show a preoccupation with transgressive sexuality in children (Ada), it's a weird obsession.
Ask HN: I’m the weakest team member and and I still love it. What motivated you?
If you are the smartest in the room you dont learn. The opposite is much more productive for personal growth.

Tell me about the cases. What motivated you to stay and not go?
An example in the standard library is the antigravity package. While it is an inside joke it still requires a HTTP transaction similar to the shopify package import.
Mr. T-Bone?
my personal rule of thumb is that my software must be useable at -O0 with address sanitizers on my desktop - so far that has meant that at -O3 it stays useable on raspberry pi-3 level hardware.

A few months ago I tried to make a build which targetted ivybridge-level CPUs, it took no more than one day for a few users to report that it didn't work on their machines, turns out a lot of people still rock some old AMD Phenom or Q6600-era machines

AARD Code, or how Bill Gates finished off the competition
It would be even faster if you switched to a series of queries without any JOINs at all, and then stitched them together with code other than SQL after the queries have ran.

Getting below 15 ms would be trivial.
Doris Duke, once the richest girl in the world, got away with murder
From what I know, it is getting appealed to a higher court, so yes and no. The verdict will be in sooner or later, and at that point, we will know. But, I'll also argue that this never should have gotten to a trial, it is appalling that the police think this is something someone should get charged for to begin with.

The other case is also going up for appeal, from what I've read, although I don't know how the higher court will respond to it.
For many people, being head validates their experiences. It’s reassuring to be accepted by another person.
Fully agree. Mobile variants of sites are another matter of course, but for desktop versions much of UX/interaction has not only been solved, but highly refined for decades. Traditional desktop design patterns might not be particularly flashy or compatible with current design trends but they work and work well which is what's most important when it comes to software.
Why the F would anyone do this? There's plenty of stuff already around.
I imagine its bad query optimizer doing the wrong thing. Maybe a different db engine would do better.
Why push yourself through a degree-style path? So much of what EEs learn in their coursework is of low utility. (I'm a physicist who transitioned to working as an EE. I have never had a single EE course, and yet I find myself with no obvious deficits compared to my colleagues who have.)

There are two ways to learn an existing technical-ish subject: you can spend a lot of time reading textbooks, then do some projects (the "slow-fast" approach); or you can dive in to projects and refer to textbooks when you get stuck (the "start-stop" approach). In the slow-fast approach you will go slowly through a lot of textbooks for a long time, and then in theory you will be able to do projects very quickly once you are done. In the start-stop approach you will start a project, quickly get stuck and spend a while searching for and understanding the answer, then go back to your project.

In my opinion electrical engineering, being a subject where fast feedback is generally possible, is very well suited to project-first learning. I would recommend grabbing a few textbooks (Horowitz and Hill's Art of Electronics holding pole position for a practically-oriented learner, in my opinion), reading their introductory material (table of contents, preface, etc.; enough that you know what each book has in it), and then setting all the books aside until you need them. Avoid books targeted at "makers"; most are fine but a sizeable fraction are written by people with no clue what they are doing, and they will actively set you back. (It is very difficult to learn from an author who does not themself understand the subject, and all the worse if they do not realize that they do not understand. Since there are plenty of better sources out there, it's little trouble to just avoid the whole class.)

Trying to work on brain-computer interfaces is challenging because it blends biology with electrical engineering. The biology will naturally drive things, because you cannot really control it like you can the electronics. So learning EE in this context is about two things: 1) What can I do with circuits? and 2) What do organisms behave like and respond to electrically? Your project is then using your knowledge of circuits to solve R&D problems relating to bioelectric signals.

This isn't easy (I think you know that), but the benefit is that you can quit with "just" EE skills and still come out ahead.
That's a shame, Calculus is a fascinating subject and a basis for many interesting applications. Basically, there are two ways to approach it: to pass your exams (and there are just a couple of rules to learn, it's not that complicated), and to really understand what it's about. If you choose the second approach, you don't even need to memorize any formulas, because you will be able to reconstruct all of them as you need them. Moreover, you won't be conceptually limited to the geometric interpretation (which is invaluavle in giving some intuition in the early phases but might get in your way later).
Debian progress on bullseye reaches Milestone 3: The Hard Freeze
MDMA in the right setting and right guidance will lead to baseline stress reducing, accessing and processing/healing past unhealed/unprocessed trauma - allowing one's ego mind guard to reduce and therefore body sensory to have a greater concentration of sensory reaching the brain/mind - allowing heart energy and logic influenced by greater sensory to add to logical pathways leading to greater empathy capability.
I'm not sure what difference it makes. Ultimately, all memory gets reused (you don't throw out your 32GB DIMM after you've written 32GB to it), so some tooling is required to manage the reuse. You can read this story and say "I wouldn't reuse a per-request data structure between requests" or especially "if I did, I wouldn't pass it to a background thread", but it doesn't get at the core of the problem -- if your program has multiple threads of execution, you need some way to check that there isn't unexpected sharing. One way is a tool like ThreadSanitizer, run your tests against it, run 1% of your production traffic against it, and you have a higher probability of detecting data races. Another way is to have some sort of structured concurrency (see "goroutines considered harmful" which was on HN just the other day).

Ultimately, I don't think one can ever be happy about "there was a giant security hole in our app, and we only found out because a customer noticed it and reported it to us, it turns out it was in a random library that we didn't even write and so now that we found this everything is fine!" Everything is not fine, and this will just happen again.
Yes, it’s ”The time traveler”, first published in Analog, April 1974. Reprinted in the collection “Callahan’s Crosstime Saloon”, and in the meta-collection “The Callahan Chronicals”. Is shows how much cultural shift can take place in a decade: the protagonist is taken prisoner in 1963 and returns to a changed society in 1973. Highly recommended!
If you’re boiling the pasta it’s not hard to be there and pick a piece up

You say this but we're deep in a thread with terms like 'saucibility'. Surely if pasta science can address a problem that's also neatly solved by simply adding more sauce, it can spare a few mighty braincells on 'standing by a pot for two minutes frantically fishing out and tasting hot undercooked noodles'. Maybe every packet of pasta can come with a couple of noodles on teabag strings.
Very interesting!

Off-topic: Although I’m very into green energy, I have a love for these extremely large displacement engines and their insane power output. You can go nuts on YouTube with this.

- large radial engines like this one

- large train engines going north of 5000 - 10000 horsepower

Love the engineering, the size and sturdiness, the sound. Amazing technology.
I appreciate your research. As you can see from this thread, there isn't much knowledge of European history from > 40 years ago apparently.

Have you found contractors willing to accept an estimate from a remote estimation tool without seeing the job in person? They're sore about visiting just to provide an estimate yet also wouldn't dare give one based on photos or video.

Another thing. Small business contractors have got to be the most dishonest people I've ever worked with. I've caught so many lies and frauds. Only reason I don't report them is because they'd kill me or destroy my property. I'm not going to entrust them with any personal information that they could use to overcharge me, charge me for other jobs, or associate me with any other scam jobs they're running.

Yeah...even 'general purpose' computers are shipped with hardware level 'software' that's beyond access from users. Intel and AMD have their management engines, Microsoft's got their in with uefi. I'm not sure if there even are any modern processors available with the kind of access allowed by 8 and 16-bit CPUs...
It remains a fact that everything you have proposed is also based on science, and so stands as an alternative way to "follow the science", not a repudiation of doing so. As such, it makes no refutation of the_dune_13's point.

I like this advice, but the question for me becomes how do you assume every person is as intelligent?

No, I don't think I'm exceptional or smarter than everyone...but 15 seconds of scrolling through social media, watching daytime news, or even driving around makes it hard to assume there aren't a ton of idiots out there. So my default has kinda degraded to 'everyone is an idiot until proven otherwise', which is something I'd like not to feel.

so the work being done is so important that people have to stay up all night to get it done in time -- it absolutely can't be postponed even by a few hours.

but also, it must not be very important at all, because it's being left to junior employees in a state of extreme mental impairment from sleep deprivation.

what kind of work are they doing where both of these things can be true?
In theory, any introduction to discrete mathematics would do. In practice, there are many differences in depth and breath of the material. You probably will do well if you choose Rosen, but there are several great alternatives, such as Levin[0] that you can start right away with.

If true, what implications does this have for P = NP? My intuition for a long time has been that P = NP only in the limit of an "infinitely sophisticated" algorithm. Such that as we do more research (or I suppose train larger models), we get closer and closer to the polynomial ideal.

This reminds me that much of the talk around climate change can't be considered scientific because it's simply not falsifiable. If everything can be attributable to climate change, nothing can be.
Caring too much is a thing. Can be detrimental to self, systematically abused or even be an ego issue. Not sure the problematic aspect is empathy, rather sensitivity.
There was, privately, as I said. Private web servers that proxied through other people's credentials that gave direct access to the catalogues. You'd use them exactly the same way as Sci-Hub.

> Another guy was worse...he smashed his phone on the desk about two feet from my face to "show me who is boss," occasionally got physical with me, and would routinely say stuff like "I own your soul" to me while I was working.

> Sad part is, the abuse happens to everyone so you start to accept it.

And that's why it continues: because everyone accepts it and allows it. I'm lucky to be in a position where it's not difficult for me to find a job (so I can understand that this sort of principled stand is not available to everyone), so if a boss ever behaved like that to me, I would quit on the spot, and tell them, very loudly, in front of the whole floor, why I was quitting. Zero question about it.
graphical and VHDL output would be very nice.
My last rough sketch came out to about 400 gates, excluding the flip-flops.

If one cuts even more corners, that number could come down much further. For example, an adder isn't actually necessary and can be replaced with lookup tables and bit-twiddling, again at the cost of cycles and more microcode.

See https://hackaday.io/project/161251-1-square-inch-ttl-cpu -- while not RISC-V it demonstrates some of these principles in action, taken to the extreme.

That design consists of: one 4 bit counter, four 8-bit flip-flops, one quad OR gate, one dual 2-to-4 demux, and one 128 KB Flash ROM.

Including the flip-flops (and obviously excluding the Flash memory) that comes out to about 200 or so gates by my count, and the microcode/emulation program implements a fairly typical CISC 16 bit processor. It's not even all that inefficient, with under 100 cycles per instruction on average.
Solid summary - thanks for the post.

Maybe my dream of a Mac SE/40 can finally be realized, all one board. No add on accelerator.
Nvidia makes majority of their money from consumer GPU sales.
Yes, their compute datacenter cards have been their marketing focus (they call themselves an AI company now) but it is still about 60/40 revenue split in favor of consumer GPU sales.
So your statement "NVidia makes more money off of data center cards." is false.

Source:
https://www.investopedia.com/how-nvidia-makes-money-4799532
https://s22.q4cdn.com/364334381/files/doc_downloads/2021/03/...

It is true that in some quarters, their datcenter revenue is more than 50% but that is because many consumers buy around christmas in Q4, and overall consumer GPUs still make up 60% of revenue.

It is not just PC gaming, it is also all the developers of these games, a lot of artists, architects, mechanical engineers who do CAD models etc. etc. They primarily buy the GeForce or Quadro graphics cards. Oh and of course, miners buy these cards too but even when mining declined consumer sales were still >50% of their revenue.

Datacenter sales are usually custom solutions, but they have also been focusing on their DGX boxes. I work at a competitor of Nvidia in the datacenter space, so I know this quite well. They do have 100% of the datacenter market right now (this will change - but that is an opinion) but that does not mean majority of their revenue comes from the datacenter.

Now as far as growth is concerned, that comes primarily from the datacenter. Thats why I guess their marketing focus on being an AI company. But their product is not an AI chip. It is a large vector unit designed for rendering frames and pushing pixels, no matter how much they try to repurpose it (which they have done quite well evidently).
Another one is The Collector by Fowles. It reminded me a lot of Lolita, for example in both books the narrator refuses to take responsibility for their actions.
Doesn't apply here because this algorithm is an approximate TSP.
Yes I'd say that I would intuitively do that only if the tables were both sufficiently large.

I noticed too that there is a strange design drive of “submenu's for it's own sake” when the options fit perfectly well into one.

The other that annoys me is “icons for it's own sake” when text suffices; I do not like having to figure out the meaning of arcane icons.
Sure, but I think the parent was referring to much heavier drinking than that. Most people can drink a pint of beer at lunch without much or any negative affect on their afternoon work performance. But I expect here we're talking about two (or more) cocktails, glasses of wine, or even hard liquor at lunch.
It doesn't help when people have no broader vision, plan or clue.

I engage people for shared understanding and work instead, but is counter to expectations.

> The worst is when you start making suggestions after listening to two sentences. If you assume that the other person is as intelligent as you are, then something you came up with after two minutes of listening is not useful -- they have probably considered this already.

I disagree. This has nothing to do with intelligence. It is all about connecting different domains of knowledge. You know and have experienced things they haven't.

Now you listen to their description of the problem, and transfer it to your domain of knowledge:

"Hey, this sounds exactly like an issue my friend Josh had a few weeks ago."

This is also why stories of the "king asking the farmer" or "CEO asking the cleaning lady" are so common --- it is all about the point of view.

Where I agree with you is "listen first, speak later". Don't interrupt until they have finished telling their story.

For context, the tests here are performed on 50- and 100-city instances, as they are limited by current GPU memory sizes. Meanwhile, the best heuristic code for TSP [1] frequently provides optimal solutions to 100k-city instances ("heuristic" = no optimality guarantee, like what this paper proposes; but one can then seek a proof of optimality if desired using a slower "exact" algorithm).

Also, Dantzig, Fulkerson and Johnson solved a 50-city TSP to optimality, with an exact method, by hand, in 1954 [2]. The practical running time was slower than what is proposed here, admittedly :-).

This is not a criticism of the paper, though: To their credit, the authors are quite straightforward about this, they're not trying to hide it. Their point is to demonstrate that their machine learning approach has potential.
