How's that any different than having a single Intel generation scale all the way from low powered laptop SoCs to 12 core i9s though?

After all, the M1s across devices aren't the same either - iMacs have different configuration from iPads, those have different amount of cores and clocks from Airs and MBPs as well.

It seems like the difference is only in Apple vs. Intel marketing blurb.

Agree! Getting a dog was the best thing I ever did as a introvert who wanted not to be a introvert. It forced me to go outside multiple times per day and gives me a chance to talk to people who also have dogs without feeling like I'm intruding when talking to them. It has done wonders for my introvertness.
Foundries and forges are different things.

A forge is closer to what you would call a manufacturing factory:

A foundry smelts. But it is also technically a factory for input material. In the same way a sawmill is a factory.

Is forcibly breaking away from the content you want to watch every 10 minutes to show ads not distracting?
or the 2 minutes of repeated content from before the break to remind you what was happening before you got distracted by the ads not also distracting?
Have you ever watched a show with the ads removed and seen how much of it is actually repeated just because of ad placements?

Just because it's not on screen the entire time doesn't mean it isn't a distraction. TV ad breaks are one of the best methods for producers - guaranteed impressions, broad audiences, official metrics, etc. - whilst also being the worst for consumers. An hour of my time set aside for watching something I enjoy now contains 20 minutes of content I don't care about at all, and cannot skip/bypass if not interested, and the 40 minutes of content is closer to 30 because of repeated content either side of ad breaks.
Slack is launching these soon.
They were going this way before the internet threatened them. Newspaper reporting (and journalism generally) was becoming increasingly emotion-based rather than fact-based.

The rise of the tabloids in the UK is a good example: highly-partisan papers that appealed to specific demographics with stories that aimed to evoke an emotional response (usually a negative emotion).

It's the same mechanic, though: competition for eyeballs. Social media became the super-competitor, but the ad-based model would have got there eventually even without the internet.
It does seem particularly odd, especially given the attention to detail they are famous for.

I can’t imagine someone really sat down and decided the messaging made sense for free apps.
you never really own them

Controversial take, but does "buying" explicitly mean owning? You never really "own" a movie you buy on blu-ray either—you own the atoms, but not the content which is merely licensed to you as it is with a legal download. The difference between downloads and physical media is actually less characterised by ownership and more by perpetuity of access.

The key benefit of blu-ray is that perpetual, legal access is limited only by your preparedness to maintain functioning equipment.

A legally downloaded, encrypted movie file also relies on your preparedness to maintain functioning equipment—but that equipment can also betray you.
These are good points. I can sometimes feel that Python is more pointer-y (?) than people expect, with stuff like:

a = {"one": 1, "two": 2 }
b = a
b["two"] = 99
print(a["two"])

The above prints 99, since "b = a" does not copy the value (the dictionary) but just the reference to the value ("the pointer", kind of). This is surprising to some people.
I tend to feel the same. The concept of a "nation" seems to be at the source of many problems as the world shifts to globalism. It really only works by creating a divide between "them" and "us". It helps instilling a sense of belonging and a base level of trust in a group of people, but inevitably nationalism becomes a problem when people would like to move between these nations.

The EU is actually trying very hard to facilitate moving betwen member nations, but it faces a lot of headwind from people in all countries who would prefer staying in their bubble. Brexit is probably the most impactful result of this tension.

Funny enough since quite a few EU member nations have not existed 150 or 200 years ago, and the nation concept has the additional third reich connotation especially in Germany. This is in stark contrast with the UK, which has existed as a nation for a much, much longer time.
The real world is larger than your desktop PC.
I also agree. I think introverted/extroverted is less about "ability" and more about "preference", while the "skill" of talking with others is something both categories of people need to learn. The introvert can for sure appear as an extrovert with training and practice, while maybe not enjoying it as much as the extrovert.

Thanks for this - I think you are on to something when you mention the low level architecture, on reflection this is where I need to fully understand the concepts - I'm messing around in this area with the usual (Nand to Tetris) type info/tutorials. I'll then come back to this manual I'm sure. Like I say - I've enjoyed it quite a bit. Its certainly me lacking - not the book!
The reality of the 50+1 rule is Bayern Munich dominating forever. Even if it were possible to extract the current owners from English football, 50+1 would really just solidify the current ‘big six’ even further with other teams very unlikely to be able to raise investment and break in. That may well still be preferable, but I’m not sure it’s the utopia people are picturing.

Binning requires more design work for the chip. I would guess the M1 was designed rapidly and probably they decided that hundreds of different bins for different types of defects wasn't worth the complexity if it meant delaying tape out for a few weeks. It also leads to extra product complexity (customers would be upset if some macbooks had hardware AES and others didn't, leading to some software being unusably slow seemingly at random).

I find vermaden's blog (especially the FreeBSD series) extremely useful and informative. Thanks for this and please keep it up this way!
I think it's worth bearing in mind a few things:

1. Coups don't have to be violent.

2. The hypothetical coupers would not have believed it to be a coup, merely reinstating the rightful president.

3. Those invading the capitol were likely mostly just doing because they could rather than because they had a concrete plan on what they'd do if they found Pence and the representatives. I expect the vast vast majority would have done nothing more than shout slogans.

4. In general, when it comes to ones Outgroups there's a strong tendency to assume the worst at every opportunity. You might want to work to counteract that tendency (if only so you can better understand said Outgroup).
I'm not sure what you're trying to say - M1s are differing in clock speed, number of cores and number of GPU cores across Apple products as well.

"M1" is basically equivalent to "Core i" designation from Intel - except that Apple just doesn't tell you about the other part.
I've seen the phrase "Own it in {HD/BluRay/4K}" so many times and always cringe. You're just owning a limited license (extremely limited, in the case of digital goods) to watch.

The average HN user can spot the difference and say "of course you don't own it, and in case of streaming, you only have access for as long as the service is around", but that's not what the average consumer sees. "Buy" and "own" have very strong meanings and repurposing those for marketing purposes to mean "limited lease" is bending the truth to the point of breaking.

But of course, "lease it for a limited time, to watch on a limited set of devices, in a geographically limited region" doesn't sound so valuable as "buy and own it".
Moore's law is only about the number of transistors per chip doubling every 24 months, not about the performance. Seeing that the trend is still happening, Moore's law is not dead, as so many have claimed.
Yeah, if they had something on their hand they wouldn't put the same chip in everything.
My suspicion is that they explicitly call this a payment for legal reasons.
It's the sort of thing that gets fixed quickly when a Steve Jobs-type character sees it and has the clout to get it fixed without debate. When Jobs says it's a problem, you have to be pretty damn sure if you want to disagree. The problem with Apple today is that there's no singular vision like that.
So many comments failing to grasp the idea of someone wanting his job/passion to be publicly available at the cost of him not getting rich. So sad.

If the customer purchased/bought the movie then Apple should offer a way to download the movie (in the case that Apple removes it from their catalogue). This would ensure customer has the ability to keep their purchase. When I buy something whether ebooks, movies, music then I do not expect it to be removed from access at a later date unless an option for me to store the item is offered.

> The Earth is a zero-sum game

No, it's not zero-sum. As you noted, "arable land decreasing" shows that. And similarly you can create arable land, you can enrich soil, use more drought tolerant crops, use tools and automation to harvest resources with less labor, at a lower cost. The allocation of resources is also not zero sum
I believe what they are saying is that money is not the goal, the goal is the spread chess, and having ads does not contribute to that goal. That’s it.

I find it quiet strange, that we are living in a world where ads are so ubiquitous that a site is explaining why they don’t have ads, rather than webpages that use ads explain why they do.
It should be possible to identify this from infrared images of the cores in operation.

If you find different sets of cores in use, you can be pretty sure it was binned...
Germany pretty much always has coalition governments. We have 5-6 parties in parliament regularly. We have general blocs, though alliances might shift on topics, but generally you had the somewhat-far-left party, the social democrats and the greens being allied, and the then conservative CDU/CSU (now conservative-leaning centrist) and the financially conservative, socially liberal FDP on the other side.

You'd still have coalitions, e.g. right now it's CDU + SPD (social democrats), but the (published) split is there as much as it ever was. It's changing now, as a new conservative/far-right party has emerged, and the green party gets lots of love from the media and has won some state elections (on a conservative platform, ironically), so it's hard to say where we'll go from here.

I don't think more parties necessarily break it up. During the cold war, we had a Soviet bloc and a Western bloc, even though you had individual countries in each.

No? That's the entire point of the article. The only difference is whether you get a 7 core or 8 core GPU.

> If you want to buy a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro, Apple will sell you an M1. Want a Mac Mini? You get an M1. Interested in the iMac or the new iPad Pro? You get an M1. It’s possible that the M1 CPUs inside the iMac will have different thermal or clock behavior than those inside the systems Apple has already launched, but the company’s decision to eschew clock speed disclosures suggests that these CPUs differ only modestly.

> with the M1, is that its custom CPU performance is now so high, at such low power consumption, that the choice of chip inside the system has become irrelevant within a given product generation

I found it equally hard to "get in the pack" whether I moved town within Germany, or moved to France, or to the UK, or within the UK.

No matter where, it was always easiest to find friends among people who themselves have moved around a lot. People who always lived in the same place will almost always have their wall up, especially if they have the feeling that too many foreigners invade their home town.

This legal fiction is only true as long as it is allowed to be. Egypt can see who was operating and using the ship and block their other ships until they fix the issue - they don't need to hold a scapegoat hostage for years.
I had a rather rude awakening when I was reading about a biological mystery that centered on a yeast that would not culture in a Petri dish. On top of the late discovery of h. pilori, and knowing a few people with mystery chronic illnesses, i think most of us have been set up by our education to think that microbiologists just about have everything figured out when in fact relatively speaking we still don’t know a goddamned thing about the microscopic world. They think we’ve identified something like 0.1% of all fungi in the world. We have bacteria and molds that can evade detection. Antibiotic resistance in ones we can see.

I don’t agree that we can stack-rank priorities, and I hate many of the ways in which people say, “maybe they should put their energy into something else first,” but I suppose that’s exactly what I’m implying here.

It’s entirely possible that trying to make things like this work will illuminate some of those exact mysteries. I think I’m just worried what happens in between those two events.
It will have a far greater than 1/8th performance impact.

When data structures are power-of-two sizes, having 7 cores instead of 8 could halve performance, since the work gets split into 4 pieces and 3 cores sit idle.
Thanks for your well-intended advice, but you should not label a stranger on the internet as requiring a few years of therapy for the conclusion that talking to randos on the street in a search for the needle in the haystack is likely a waste of time and emotional energy.

The experience of being bullied plays a lot into me being cautious with random people, but this often served me well (e.g. when picking PIs, several people in my peer group ran right into abusive situations and ignored warnings - a lot of luck is involved already and it’s easy to slip here if you have not learned to take little warning signs seriously, or even perceive them). I’m still often trusting too quickly and have to hold myself back.

Don’t you think that the time you have spent with the republican conspiracy theorist, however fascinating, could have been better spent with someone who doesn’t have strange internet-formed beliefs? There are lots of people in specialized (e.g. nerd, travel) circles who are searching for true friendship who might have more common ground. I do talk to randos if there is such an initial filter. Most educated people in society seem to prefer it this way, there is a reason why the linked story creates a sense of novelty.

Why is Biden selling weapons to a country that helped make Yemen a ‘hell hole’?
That's right. There was a literal football school in Moscow that got a good coach and shot from division 4 to division 3 to division 2, finished third last year, but didn't get to fight for promotion to the top division because of Covid.
Depends, remember that the 5nm processors overall are fairly new so we have no idea of yields. But if 1/5th of the processors are flawless, 1/5th have one faulty GPU and the rest have more errors (in either CPU or two or more GPU failures) then having twice the amount of CPU's available to sell (at a slightly lower pricepoint) might make perfect sense.
I am not sure we have all the information yet, it seems entirely possible that Boris Johnson and Ed Woodward’s meeting in the run up to the announcement was to ensure the government were on side.

Apple has the ability to delete media and apps from Apple devices. Offering a download would only work if it's not non-DRM (so not revokable), not tied to a specific device (you should be able to play your film on any device you own), and ideally not even tied to an account (you shouldn't lose your purchases if Apple close your account). Really it would need to be in an open format that works on non-Apple devices too.
In high school, I worked a retail job for an office supply store, and one of the PC brands we would sell was Packard Bell.

We sold many different models with similar specs, and the main feature many of the potential buyers would be concerned with:

Will it fit with my current office furniture?

We sold both desktops and tower configurations, and the type of desk the computer would be used with was the determining factor in which model to buy.

If we had invested in space exploration the same amount of resources we are investing in ads, tracking, finance and bitcoin, we would already have tourists in the asteroid belt, the climate/energy issue would be solved, and we would probably enjoy many other incredible health and food-related technologies.

Complaining about the ridiculously small amounts of resources currently invested in space exploration is really short minded.
But then you should compare to other ways how to minimize that risk. Multiple lifetimes of trying to estabilish a self-sustaining colony on Mars sounds more difficult than mapping all rocks in solar system larger than ~ 10km in diameter, monitoring their orbits and developing a technology to nudge them away/break them down.

And it's also something that sci-fi nerds would enjoy.

EDIT: it seems that we're quite well on our way to the first step, there are about 1000 near Earth asteroids larger than 1km, much less than previously thought

"How many people here bought digital media? You are all wrong, none of you have, you only rented it. If you lose the account it is all gone" Rob Pike, unspin
This article does not actually get anywhere with the "formal verification" part. The authors dumps it into a bounded model checker, observes that it does not work and then does some crude manual bounded loop unrolling. Does this increase confidence in the algorithm? Not sure.
I don't disagree with that, but most cases fall within a pretty clear pattern:

- typedef struct { ... } foo

- foo *foo_create()

- void foo_destroy(foo *)

- a bunch of functions that take foo* as their first arg

which is kind of the same as a class and only more error-prone.

I say this as someone who actually _likes_ C, but the manual memory management model is very often unnecessary, confusing, repetitive. There was an idea some time ago of a language extension that would extend the concept of automatic storage duration to allow an explicit destructor to be called when the variable goes out of scope, like <close> variables in some languages. I genuinely think things like that would make the language a bit more ergonomic without fundamentally changing its nature.
