The M1 processor is a direct result of the death of Moore's law. It's an amazing processor, but a sad sign of things to come.

The performance gains from Moore's law have typically come from shrinking die size. That has ended, you can't juice more performance from general purpose CPUs. If general purpose processors no longer advance quickly enough, the only way to get performance gains is to build custom chips for common specific tasks. That's what we're seeing now with the M1. The M1 buys us a few more years of exponential-appearing performance gains, but it's a one-trick pony. You can turn code into an ASIC once, but after that, your performance is at the mercy of the foundry and physics.

The death of Moore's law has many consequences, the rise of ASICs and custom co-processor chips is just one of them.
Can you consider it such a "disaster" when so many from all around the world are desperate to move here? I realize that's kind of a cliche' right-wing talking point, but it still seems some relatively is merited.
Try Supabase out. Its basically a Postgres plugin and you can subscribe to tables live changes using Websockets.

If you have a query you could reorientate the table's changes and see if the changes affect the output incrementally manually.
I feel you. Having lived in HK for 8 years now. I hold a permanent HKID, and consider HK my home. I've been trough the protests in 2014, and the ones in 2019, it was mentally draining because it's hard to discuss these subjects with locals. To them, you're just a foreigner that can leave any time he wants. When you disagree on certain political things, you'll often hear; "you're just a foreigner, you don't understand", and there's nothing you can say to that.

I've come to terms with it tho, accepting that even though this is my home, I'll never be truly accepted or be able to fit in.

But I also think this has made me a better person. Having experienced racism multiple times here, I'm much more aware of my own actions.
'Flamewar comments' is not really accurate since only you really replied, but I get the sentiment, perhaps you mean this one

"Be kind. Don't be snarky. Have curious conversation; don't cross-examine. Please don't fulminate. Please don't sneer, including at the rest of the community."

Or maybe you think I'm really bad at flame wars, but... "strongest plausible interpretation"

Perhaps a shadow ban and I'll aim for vouch if that's a middle ground.

Sort of, but not really. Nutrient deficits are pretty rare in developed countries; I'd bet there are more anorexia cases than scurvy, goiters, etc. The main lesson has been that processed foods have been engineered to taste better, often because of added sugar, salt and fat, are less filling, and are more likely to cause weight gain because of that. Golden rice is a food that was engineered to be more nutritious, and if not for politics and GMO fears, it would be a nutritional game changer for the developing world.

This isn't to say modern agriculture practices are good, it's that it's hard to say people aren't getting enough nutrients in their diet when micronutrient deficiencies are rare and there's an obesity epidemic.
The idea that I would call someone a friend and not have their mobile number, or if I didn't would feel awkward about asking for their number, is alien to me.

Very tangential, but the story of Jim Simons is interesting.

He was an American cryptographer who took a very public stance against the Vietnam War. Being forced to leave, he went and set up the world's most successful hedge fund, became a billionaire and led the nerdification of trading.

There are lots of really really interesting interviews with him on YouTube.

> But I also chose to work at a place that has a physician-led and supportive administration

Your positive experience seems to confirm that working in a place with good management has a positive effect on employee morale, although I'm not sure anyone was questioning that in the first place. It is however uplifting to note that workplaces like yours exist.

I also think it depends on the area you serve. I imagine for many hospitals COVID was a case of "do everything right and everything still goes wrong" - especially when you reach max capacity, it doesn't matter how good of a doctor you are, you can't heal people with your bare hands. Likewise, it doesn't matter how well you use PPE or social distance or stay at home if thousands of others in your area ignore the safety measures and get each other sick, and it doesn't matter how much you care about keeping people safe if your local or federal governments don't take the issue seriously. This has been a huge stress point not just for doctors but for everyone I think, the knowledge that so much misery and death could have been avoided if we just did what we knew we should do when this mess started.
> Changing the name of a field of a struct can change behavior in another file that never mentions the field by name.

I don’t code in go so this looked surprising to me. TypeScript has a similar feature regarding types, and it will tell you if you change a field in a record, and that record is actually used in a place where another record with the same fields is asked for.

Kind of surprised go has this problem.
I’m from Melbourne, Australia and was recently in the United States. I definitely found American strangers far more likely to randomly struck up conversations with you in public spaces. I spent just over 5 months there between California and Colorado, and was constantly caught off guard by strangers trying to stop and talk to me - usually older adults.

Not wanting to stereotype too generally, but from talking to other Aussies about it we chalked it up to a higher level of self-confidence over there.

I know I definitely struggle to talk to strangers, though in part because you really just don’t know what you’re going to get sometimes! It was the part of travelling that I thoroughly enjoyed as a young 20-something. I was thrust into situations (hostels, bars, etc.) that forced me to overcome my shyness.

Are you using Firefox? The AVIF decoder in Firefox isn't ready yet (it isn't enabled by default) and has particular issues around colour.

I'm not seeing the differences you're describing in Chrome.

But, of course, those 4kb are not free, but the artifacts seem a lot more natural than other formats.

Fwiw, I looked at a few images in detail at https://jakearchibald.com/2020/avif-has-landed/.
Thanks for the extra info. Great to hear feedback. Yes, we're currently asking for an email address up front .. tho there's no reason why we couldn't do this after the analysis tutorial (it comes next) .. or even once you've completed your first image analysis. This is the point we give you access to your personal dashboard / map of images you've analysed.

This is the project's first year and the tech / dev side is a one-person show. Which is to say we're extremely cognisant of rough edges, but also super keen for meaningful feedback. Most of which we should be able to implement without fuss :)
> where you have to use countless trivial unit tests to have any confidence about what your code is doing.

I don’t understand this. I can read well written code and tell you what it does, including in old school scripting languages. I don’t need countless trivial unit tests.
This is ridiculous. You joined at a lucky time, that should not be counted against you. I mean, that's what all stock is, right? A gamble, and you won the pot on your first try. If company's stock went down, do you think they would have readjusted your base salary to match? Don't think so.

This is just another one of those tricks that companies do to try to boost your base compensation, but without putting the actual money in. Cash will always be king, always prefer it against RSUs.

We need a new word for these high tech massive farming operations. I come from the Canadian farming sector. Most of the farmers here are individuals, or medium sized family operations. Even the big farms aren't "high tech". There just a lot of guys and a bunch of leased machines. We have essentially 0 "high tech" farms.

I wouldn't say "modern farms are very high tech operations", I'd say "high tech industrial players are in the process of taking over western agriculture".

The word "farm" mean something special to me, as I was born and raised on one. What your talking about is something completely different.

> A language that is touted as "difficult to learn" and "difficult to onboard" is by definition not built for maintaining

PL learnability alone is not significant as a factor for a PL to be chosen for a certain task, unless it is impossibly hard. Rust, looking at the growing community, is not a PL that is impossibly hard to learn.

A PL is chosen for a certain task for its features. The same as any other class of tool, "A is chosen for X because of A's feature".

The learning curve is simply the side-effect of the PL's minimum features need to be learnt for it to work. Rust being a low-level language + an extra layer of protection is inherently hard.

But let's see how it fares in 10 years. There have been successful projects built on Rust, firecracker, figma, discord, and many more, despite it being so young.

> I guess it depends on the local culture.

This was maybe the hardest transition for me when I moved from London to Stockholm. In London, despite its size and what people often claim is its 'anonymity', there were always many opportunities every single day to have smalltalk with strangers: standing at the bus-stop, in line at the grocery store, looking at albums in a record shop. It really helped to soften the edge of being self-employed, and English people really relish these micro-interactions talking about the weather or jokily disparaging their political leaders.

Coming to Stockholm, the thing that shocked me - I'd even go as far as to say traumatized me to a certain extent - was that Swedish people were completely at ease pretending that others around them were invisible. This went beyond not making smalltalk, and left a deep mark on me which has never been erased. I still find it hard to cope with the erasure that I experience every single day when people behave as though you are not there at all.

A female Swedish journalist that had been a correspondent in Israel for many years and then retired back to her home in Stockholm talked about the invisibility phenomenon very eloquently in a newspaper feature which I've been unable to find online today (it was a few years ago), but she also talked about how upsetting it was, after becoming accustomed to being greeted and 'noticed' by the humans around her as a 'normal' part of her everyday experience, to suddenly disappear into nothingness.

Strangest of all, is that this isn't even a Scandinavian thing: whenever I visit Norway or especially Denmark, strangers constantly try to make smalltalk in all sorts of contexts. Then I always have to apologize for not fully understanding their language (especially the Danes), and when they hear me speaking Swedish they usually give up on me instantly - Swedes being well-known for their unsociability in those parts.

Sad to say, after 20 years I've also adjusted my own behavior to the Swedish norm, and usually find the approach of a sociable Dane with some nervous trepidation.
It was a counter-point to the "existential threat" argument.

> Do you think something like that might happen in a developed country?

Do I beleive it could happen? Yes, but it's quite unlikely, and it requires a series of fuck-ups from a lot of people.
It's also more likely to happen in undeveloped countries:

> It wouldn't be surprising for this pandemic (and/or lockdowns) to tip some country over the edge, somewhere. But maybe not.

> Wouldn't hospitals just triage patients, letting the old and sick die?

I think you underestimate how pissed off people might get if the system they entrusted their relatives' care to suddenly decided to just let them manage on their own.

On a local level, things are messier - as you say, local governments fall every now and then and covid is just about as likely to trigger it as any other major issue.

I find it far more likely that it won't happen,though.

As for worst-case scenarios in general, I think it's simply a way for us to plan ahead. "Shit will happen. It might be rough. We'll manage because we though of it beforehand." And yes, it' probably good for the survival of the species. :D

I think your reading is more correct, I can no longer update my comment.
I don't really agree, at least from a longer term perspective. It's early days yet, but XLA seems to be a promising intermediate representation for allowing the DL frameworks to run on a wider array of hardware without user-facing software changes. It has traction with Google, NVIDIA, IIRC Intel and maybe more (others are definitely using the same approach of compute graph splitting and subgraph scheduling, but I'm not certain if they are using XLA specifically - I know some aren't like Mindspore).

XLA has already proven its value by allowing PyTorch to run on TPUs (shittily, but that appears to be more of a VM/GCP infra problem than an XLA problem). The work done for TPUs (and to a lesser extent for GPU optimization) has started to expose some of the major issues and so work can start on addressing them (the cost of dynamic XLA compilation as tensor shapes change and how lots of important code assumes that accelerator-to-CPU communication isn't tooo expensive, but it's is a huge issue when trying to compile the graph into machine-specific code with XLA or similar to because it forces you to only be able to compile small subgraphs).

It's early, but the rise of a really effective IR in XLA combined with the huge amount of resources that Google/NVIDIA can pour into XLA makes me very bullish on purpose-built hardware for AI training. It will take a while I admit.

My wife and I were just arguing about Adam Toledo, and had boiled it down to which frame within a single second of video matters the most. Obviously we were getting nowhere. How on earth could you get the truth out of that?

Then somehow we got onto "wait, why are so many people in desperate circumstances?" That's the real issue, but the polluted discussion around it wants to be able to divide into Frame 1 and Frame 2 camps.

Too many things are like this. NBC or whoever might go "See? Here's George Floyd cuffed and at the car. End of video" while the BBC might have that, but also the next few minutes with a much more two-sided struggle. I'm sure somewhere else they abridged it to nothing but the part where the cop flies out the rear of the car. Now we have three different truths to lash out at each other with while no one is paying attention to root causes.

1. Presumably, your "we have a superweapon" talk would say that it can be carried on a single plane. That is literally the main/only advantage of first-gen nukes.

Also, the maneuvers that a B-29 needed to do to escape the blast of one of those weapons was really extreme - and Japanese engineers would likely be able to figure this out too. Those maneuvers mean that you can't fly in close formation. (Or really any sort of formation with separations not measured in miles)

2. "But we should have tried more!" is always something that can be said. I'm really not sure this changes the overall moral calculus.

3. You're linking to something saying "other US bombing raids were worse than the nukes" and using it to argue that the nukes weren't necessary. I can't really understand this either. (I'm not sure that Japan could have actually retooled to move more productive capacity out of the cities than they were already doing. But when you're trying for a psychological outcome - surrender - "we knew this was coming and planned for it" is a lot easier to handle than "what the hell just happened")

Finally, yes - Japan was confined to a series of islands with little besides coal and people. They were never going to win, not so long as the US had the will to continue the fight. But surrendering 6 months later would mean huge casualties for the invaders, massive losses for the defenders, and unimaginable horrors for the civilian population. We should all be happy for the millions of people that didn't starve to death, and for the millions who didn't have to walk their children off of cliffs or have the family hug a grenade.

Time is an illusion. Science tells us it's linear, measured in precise nano-seconds. But humans measure time differently, it's based more on the depth of connection we have to others. You can have a life-changing event in a day, or waste away doing nothing for a decade. The more connected one is to the surrounding people and environment, the denser and more fulfilling time becomes.
