>>You are punishing people who want to eat apples and beef for the crime of being able to pay less for it.

That's an incredibly weird way of looking at it. Consumers don't have some god given right to cheap apples and beef. The government has a duty to protect both consumers and producers, because it's so closely interlinked - if you destroy your own industry to import cheap beef and apples what will you do if those foreign companies decide not to sell to you any more? Or if you can't import from them because there was a draught or a disease outbreak?

Like, you think that the only think we should optimize for, ever, is the final price for the customer, everything else is not important, right? After all doing anything else is "punishing" customers for the "crime" of wanting cheap produce?

Like, please take no offence, but that's incredibly short sighted.
The leverage. One wants the leverage for the leverage. Then you can use it for all kinds of other things, including things you didn't think of before. Like money, save it up and spend on whatever you want at the right time.
Unfortunately you are indeed wrong. Bell's theorem works no matter the outcome of the measurement. We just see that some outcomes are more likely to occur than others. People in other universes would see different outcomes, but the overall distribution would be the same. I guess there could be some hideously improbable universe where every Bell test experiment ever performed lead to results not exceeding classical correlations, but that sure as hell isn't the universe we live in.
Can confirm as another M-1 Macbook Air user that this thing seems pretty snappy with just 8 GB of RAM but my work provided thinkpad seems to be much worse with 16 GB.
Has it? Wikipedia is primarily edited by an insulated, slowly dying clique of mostly ignorant people who would rather nothing be written at all than a domain expert outsider article.

Meanwhile, the foundation is some sort of self-perpetuating money vacuum expanding at a great rate while expenditures for actually running Wikipedia is stagnant, if anything getting cheaper. It turns out a wishy-washy NGO save the world mission is a lot more exciting than the daily struggle of community building, and with the foundation all these do-gooders don't even have to forgo the competitive salary.

Obviously a bit exaggerated, but there is a lot of truth here.
I would love to know a litte about how you got to where you are, what you're doing is hard, requires a lot of capital and a lot of track-record and I'm looking to do the same in another area of silicon; would you be willing to chat to me about how you got this far, please?
The Dell Precision mobile workstations have a good price when compared with other mobile workstations.

All mobile workstations, regardless of vendor, are overpriced in comparison with gaming laptops, because those who buy mobile workstations are forced to buy them for a few features that are missing in gaming laptops.

As another poster has already written, a common strategy when buying a Dell Precision mobile workstation is to buy them with the minimum RAM of 4 GB and with the minimum SSD of 128 GB, with the intention to dump the original RAM and SSD and buy something like 64 GB of ECC RAM and a fast 2 TB SSD, at much lower prices than from Dell.

The only reason for the 4 GB RAM configuration is because Dell will not sell a laptop without RAM or without a SSD or HDD.

The economy from buying yourself the RAM can easily be up to one thousand USD or even more, even after paying for the mandatory 4 GB.
Yeah, it's not merely a matter of Russia not extraditing; they simply don't address the problem at all unless the cybercrime is also affecting other Russian citizens. And in some cases the security services seem to have direct relationships with some cybercriminals. (I'm not sure how friendly or close the relationships are, but there's definitely some tit-for-tat: we let you operate and make all this money, and in return you do us favors when we need them. I believe laundering is one example, like in the BTC-e case.)

Maybe, you have to see if the cost of having independent components (dev time, prototyping etc...) is worth the few cents saved on the BoM.

Then you have to consider that IC designs are usually easier to reuse since they're more flexible, if you can have a single design with different firmwares for your entire line of products vs custom hardware for every design. Even if you sell 700k units/year you probably have a few models in your inventory, each selling for a fraction of that.

Beyond that it's pretty common for modern appliances to come with so-called "smart" features that require more processing and more IO capabilities. It's not rare for modern coffee makers to come with a color screen instead of the good old 7 segment displays.

So really the equation is not that simple, especially for higher end models that will have a more expensive BoM overall and a lower number of units sold.

Yeah, the name is actually a bad one.

> I don't call NYTimes work worthless easily.

Nor should you in this case, because this isn't NYT work. It's a guest essay by Cal Newport, who isn't an NYT employee. At best, you could argue that it doesn't meet their standards for guest essays or that they should have higher standards:

https://help.nytimes.com/hc/en-us/articles/115014809107-How-...

The NYT needs to do a better job perhaps distinguishing opinion from news and guests from columnists from editorial board work. In the print edition, it's clearer from the layout, but on the web, it all runs together.

That said, this is clearly marked in red at the top as "opinion" with the author's name. It's also from the "Sunday Review" section which is all opinion pieces:

> it matters in the mid and ultraportable segment if you want decent battery life.

Memory buses consume very little power compared to the rest of the components. Even memory itself doesn’t consume much, except VRAM in high-end GPUs but that’s an order of magnitude faster than system RAM in most computers.

Battery impact of soldered versus socketed RAM is negligible. For instance, HP ProBook 445 G7 and G8 have two DDR4 SO-DIMM slots, yet the battery life is up to 14 hours.

Computers with soldered RAM are slightly cheaper to manufacture (less parts). Also, it’s not user-upgradeable, users are likely to replace the complete computer after a few years. Memory and disk requirements of software grows quickly over time: https://techtalk.pcmatic.com/research-charts-memory/ These two factors create incentives for computer manufacturers to solder the RAM, despite that’s not in the interests of users, and the environment.

I had an old Dell Core 2 Duo 2.66Ghz with 4GB of RAM from 2010 that I used mostly as a Plex server until 2019 running Windows 10 - with a spinning hard drive. I was surprised it ran at all. Let alone decently enough to run any one of Chrome, Word, or Excel. I would use it every now and then when I was working from home while interviewing.
Wikipedia in 2001
Notice how the supposedly "quality controlled" App Store walled garden totally and utterly failed to protect its users from XcodeGhost infected apps.
I found google doesn't lead me to wikipedia as often anymore. Also wikipedia is kinda stagnant in quality.

These are of course, my own personal experience. Still a very useful resources whenever I want to learn about a given subject.
I wonder if there's a good business in the mix of these ideas. If a lot of manufacturers actually are using over powered chips because they are a) more available and b) easier to program with newer tooling then one might be able to find a niche making cheaper/simpler/older style chips if they also provided modern tooling making it easier to program them for simple tasks like weighing things, blinking lights, playing little tunes, reading a sensor, etc. I've heard good things about PlatformIO so leveraging that ecosystem could be a win as far as avoiding creating your own IDE. Producing great documentation for the products would also go a long way towards gaining adoption.
Dealers don't care whether you pay cash or finance. Just call around dealers within a certain mile radius you are willing to drive and find the best deal. This has been, and will always be, the best way to get a deal.

What will cure/prevent type 2 diabetes is a low-carb, high-fat diet.

Sardines are a low-carb, high-fat food. Eating them replaces a big load of the carbs people usually consume, and just like that they reduce the amount of insulin they have to produce, reducing their insulin resistance and so on. Omega-3 fatty acids are just a slight benefit, probably, and not so much for the diabetes.

But "Just eat a can of sardines every now and then" is just a lucky guess. There are a lot of additional, more effective ways to reduce insulin sensitivity.
I'm kinda OCD-ish about what runs on my systems.

I think Elon's association with the right is largely due to his dudebro persona. He's what you get if you gave your average Rogan listener billions of dollars, a deep well of conviction, and an exceptional mind.

Among the political commentariat on the left, this kind of person is a Neanderthal that should be relegated to the dustbin of history.

For a lot of people on the outside of that demographic, he's just a fun, brilliant, if occasionally douchy guy who's way less out of touch than his billionaire contemporaries, and actually works to build neat things.
If you need compensation for loss of opportunity and loss of profit and such, then there are companies which will happily accept liability for such for a sufficient financial incentive. Regular consumer-grade postage services very specifically exclude liability for anything outside of the delivery itself.
5Gbps on what hardware and how does that compare to the kernel implementation on the same hardware? Curious to know how big a difference DPDK makes. Also what about cpu time, I know typically DPDK takes more CPU due to polling, normally want to dedicate cpus to DPDK right?

Both iOS and macOS support compressed memory pages which helps a lot with memory pressure. On modern hardware decompressing a memory page is orders of magnitude faster than swapping.

Even relatively modest compression ratios add up in aggregate. Swapping compressed pages is also more efficient (when it happens) because less data needs to be persisted to the disk.

That's not to say 8GB is enough for everyone but it punches a bit above its weight in a lot of use cases.

I used to get bothered by this as well, but you’ve got to get over it. Most of the time the thousands of people don’t want to be in the limelight and it is better for the product/company to have a good and smart leader out there touting it without saying every single time that actually they didn’t do that much and Bill and Mary and Chloe and 500 other people actually did all the work.

Look, we all know Musk and other CEOs didn’t invent these products/ideas on their own but storytelling is a big part of leadership.
Yep. I noticed that as well when I bought my 2018 Corolla.

The size comparison to a 2003ish Camry is very similar.

That's really cool. A year and a half of effort from different people with different skills. The video from a another comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27097418) does a better job of showing how well done this is.

Chips don't suddenly get obsoleted though, they get put in "not recommended for new designs" for at least a year or two beforehand, and when the chip maker plans to phase the chip out they typically give a "last time buy" notice at least a month or two before it gets discontinued.
I have to imagine it’s an order of magnitude better than the old encyclopedias, even for controversial articles.

Like always for consumer protection, the only recourse is legal action. Ask your govt representatives to make slow software illegal. Carbon tax on inefficient code. IIRC Germany has started looking into it ?

I'm starting to think historians will look back at our age and say "it was the MBAs who doomed them", much the same way that historians look at China's history and point to an excess of court eunechs as the reason this or that dynasty fell.
It's funny because systems dynamics have been known in supply chain optimisation for like 4 decades and the research itself is from the 60S. JIT is an obvious case of overoptimising leading to fragility so the fact that its accepted as the ideal is ludicrous.
In this case it’s not about that, but rather if you possess what it takes to hit 100+.

This is good, standard advice (if you can play it slowly...)

Once this is done and the notes are under your fingers, though, most pianists would probably say you have about 80% of the work on a piece left. The next most important thing next is to train your ears to get yourself to the next level. I highly recommend recording yourself in small ~30 second chunks and identifying what you want to change. At this point most progress will be made from listening and analysis, not from fingers on keys.

Of course, this is hard work and requires proper motivation and training, for which a good teacher has no substitute.

How much of RAM is actually full vs just cached stuff that can be purged when memory pressure increases?

Just because Windows task manager says 10 GB RAM are used doesn’t mean it could easily do with half of it, just foregoing a bit of preloading of apps/files that you might perhaps be using.
I've worked in that industry. The problem with infotainment systems (be it in planes or in cars) is that they're usually designed years before the planes/cars enter production, they have very strong constraints in terms of price and component choice (you need automotive-certified parts, not smartphone parts, and they need to last a long time even if they have to go through Arizona summers) so they're already outdated by the time the car comes out.

These systems are also usually integrated with other systems to provide additional functionality using largely custom code that somewhat prevents quick iteration and code reuse, especially since the people writing the code are largely not in-house but various contractors (that's where a company like Tesla has the upper hand since I suppose that they control the software stack a lot more than the average).

Beyond that these systems suffer heavily from design-by-committee and worse yet, committees whose core competence really isn't computer UI.
AFAIK a large part of why it hasn't yet been corrupted has been the total lack of greed on behalf of founder Jimmy Wales.

I don’t think the trade names you’ve used in “Contents” are very descriptive. Something along the lines of “Hobby Electronics” might be more appropriate. I’d also consult a trade expert on this but I think spec’ing the origin as US may be part of the problem because no doubt there are Chinese components on your assemblies. Receiving countries will want to tariff commodities based on the actual origin.

> so no ECCN numbers should be required.

That's wrong. The classification of each exported item has to be declared by the sender. Exemptions should also be declared as an ECCN number (there are various ECCN numbers designed exactly for that).

Without ECCN the sender fails basic Export Compliance checks.
This is overly simplistic. Adaptive optics solves a lot atmospheric issues. There are also entire categories of telescopes that it simply makes more sense to keep on earth.

He might be a very effective marketer and manager, but he gets credit for so so much more than that. Like he singlehandedly made electric cars a thing. It's the Great Man theory of history.

Even then, effective marketing are often lies, so why value effective marketing? Effective management is so often toxic, so why value effective management? As far as I can tell, he's full of BS and his employees are treated poorly, so I really don't care so much that he's first to market.

Anecdote:

Started supplementing with NMN and NAD+ after coming across David Sinclair’s research and book.

I injured my knee in a motorcycle high side, and seemed to develop chronic osteoarthritis in the joint.

For 2 years I had dealt with this chronic pain and weakness that was only mitigated by leg/rehab exercises. However, the dull pain would come back if I stopped.

After taking NMN/NAD+ orally (1 pill every few days) I noticed that for the rest of the day inflammation was very much reduced for me - especially in my knee. A few months later now my knee is a lot better and I haven’t been taking the supplements.

I like Sinclair’s research a lot, and my anecdote aligns with many of the results anecdotes he has shared. Maybe my knee just healed naturally, but I think there is something here.
