But does sampling above the Nyquist rate guarantee phase reconstruction though? In a real world (not theoretical ideal) implementation of a reconstruction filter, what’s the phase reproduction ability the nearer you get to the Nyquist rate? I thought that there was no phase reconstruction guarantee by the Shannon reconstruction theorem, only frequency, and that there can be advantages to sampling rates higher than than Nyquist alone would suggest. Can anyone with more authority on this subject speak to this? It’s a bit fuzzy but I remember my DSP professor making that argument once and it always kind of stuck with me. It does make some intuitive sense, as you picture trying to reconstruct a sinusoid close to (but below) the Nyquist rate. It’s not hard to see how a reconstruction filter may get some odd results like incorrect amplitude, oscillating amplitude, or phase shift the closer you get.

The digital edition does, but as was correctly pointed out, it's not particularly useful information.
Because the value would tank when they tried to sell off all the Bitcoin, etc., that they mined.

If a person has a conflict-of-interest I still like to hear from them, but it's nice to disclose that. I comment on Red Hat news from time to time but I always disclose that I work there and that my opinions are my own. Even with the disclaimer sometimes people will accuse me of being a shill or like I'm the public face of Red Hat.
This is what my local microcenter does. They have a sign when you walk in saying ONE gpu per customer per 30 days, and they write down your license number to make sure. I still was never able to get one(because people camp outside the store the night before deliveries) but I appreciate their effort.
... but we're still measuring page load speed, and hey, AMP is still faster in most cases.
Nope. These are new SKUs (LHR variants), not a patch that retroactively applies to existing stock/sales. If anything, so long as crypto demand persists, this will result in a upward influence on the scalping price of the currently existing non-crippled 3070's and 3080's. Technically Nvidia has existing mining SKU's (their HX skus) so new supply is still entering the market, but its unclear exactly how things will balance out. In the short term (assuming demand remands high for crypto cards), I'd expect scalped pricing to go up, not down. And that's assuming these LHR's arent compromised like the original mining-crippled 3060's have been.
> consoles make no such guarantee. Some years after the next gen becomes current gen, they will leave no option to submit previous generation titles. Both in a physical (stop accepting submissions) and marketing sense (less updates to older consoles, usually just security patches).

No, but the maintained lifetime of a game is usually shorter than a full console cycle (within which you absolutely do have that guarantee) so this doesn't affect those games. It's also worth noting that games that came out in 2013 for the X1/PS4 should still run on their newer counterparts with no changes (though this degree of back compat is at least somewhat unusual, so I'll give you that). On the other hand, the mobile space sees many apps get entirely redesigned multiple times in a decade.

> It should also be noted that consoles are 1-2 systems specs, and some games highly, highly optimize for that spec.

First of all, games tend to be optimized for specific hardware features, with "notches" to turn on additional features in the game for each main target spec. Most games these days ship on multiple platforms including PC so the idea that they're optimized for a specific platform isn't really true anymore. Second of all, the previous and current generations added new specs (X1X and PS4 Pro, PS4 -> PS5 and X1 -> XS back compat, XSS/XSX hardware differences) without breaking any compatibility by keeping general architectures the same with some extra support in the OS to smooth over the places that it differs.

> So mimgration [sic] is naturally harder because consoles generally give devs almost a full memory block to work with

This only complicates migrating to platforms that don't use a unified memory architecture and dedicated system resources, it has nothing to do with updating for new console generations.

Full disclosure - I work for Microsoft/Xbox.
Hats off to this lady for running a one-person tech company. Doing all the tech stuff would be easy, but handling bookkeeping, taxes, supplies, logistics, vendor relationships, sales, customer relations, everything... I'd actually die. Loads of energy!
>Also, to be clear, we're talking about Dyson _Swarms_. This is the original design idea that was called Dyson Spheres but that name is often not used because people mistakenly think we're talking about a rigid shell that encompasses a star. That is not and never was the intent. It's also impossible for many reasons.

Thank-you for clearing this up for me. I made a post after you, but you addressed the issues that I discarded. I now know more then I did. Thanks!
Nvidia does not want to hike the prices because last time they did this in the same circumstances they lost a lot of goodwill.
> So what? I pay taxes on my grocery bill, and I buy groceries with money I already paid taxes on

As you will with capital gains income. Saying it's ok to triple tax capital gains because wages are double taxed doesn't work.
You mean the same guy that just donated $1.2b to the indian covid relief fund is just in it for the money? I have a hard time believing that.

Vitalik doesn't even own half a percent of the circulating supply.

And shockingly, you are a toxic bitcoin maximalist that bought in early & massively profits from trying to discredit Ethereum and pushing the "btc is a world reserve currency" narrative.

Fuck outta here.
not even that. Life could have been incredibly unlikely to arise on earth, but still arise when it did as freak statistical occurrence. We only have one earth to examine, and the anthropic principle severely limits any conclusions we could draw from n=1.
Don't forget gold plated toslink connectors!
It's not possible to abuse the power in this case. You either use it or not. Either for your profit or not. Vitalik made his choice, many other holders will do approximately the same.
Cryptocurrency value is extremely volatile, businesses need stable income streams to plan for development and growth. Further, just owning cryptocurrency isn't enough, it has to be converted into spendable money so that the business can pay employees and fund other business expenses, at Nvidia's scale this creates a lot of financial friction and undesirable complications.
I found one charge of 0.89 Eur in April 2013. Probably the first year was free and then I paid once. Maybe they charged me just a single time after all. Quite a bargain to be honest (before the Facebook acquisition at least).

I built a no-code web-app creator that also has a concept of blocks and I can relate to this. Each paragraph is a different block, and I still haven't quite figured out the best way of handling cross-block interactions like your example of cross-block text selection.

I think I would need to redo the browser-based editor, because even if I solved e.g. cross-block selection across blocks of the same type, it's unclear how it should work across, say, a text block and a video-embed block.
"remove" how? The card BIOS is not going to let you just flash any random driver you cooked up.
Cards that have already been sold don't matter. New cards however become worthless to miners so the demand should go down as well as the prices.

We will probably see cards with old firmware show up on eBay for a lot more money than new cards.
Personal thoughts about programming languages
Probably not much of a cat-and-mouse game. Once they can bypass it once, all they have to do is not update. Unless Nvidia is prepared to release new hardware revisions every time.
In addition to the revenue from selling cars. The GP was asking why Nvidia doesn't stop selling their cards and use them to generate bitcoin as a mining company.

Tesla simply took some of their cash and invested in Bitcoin, they didn't shift production or pivot their business.

The fact that they made money off of the investment and whether or not it was more than their revenue is irrelevant, the move didn't affect their core business, it was just lucrative.
I think next year would be a better time to update the equation.
No, just needs some onlyfans optimization. Step aside VR, there's a new medium in town, revolutionary engagement if casters can pony up.

Or just Google's own products/services. They usually fail. Same with Apple, Microsoft, everyone. I don't like the "Core Web Vital" metric because it is possible to make your site load slower or in a non-pleasing way for users and improve your score.
I think the churches own the land, not the current leaders. I'm guessing the Catholics would be on the top 100 list, but I doubt the Mormons would.

Sounds like free speech. People were all for unrestricted free speech... until the right wing started using it.
Technically, that example is supposed to be something a person might say. They didn't claim that LaMBA said it.

If the computer says it then it's confabulating. It doesn't have a mother.

Unless they're working on role-playing, maybe it would be better to somehow remove responses that a computer shouldn't say from the training set?
What a pointlessly elitist take. People shouldn't have a blog, or submit their content to hacker news, unless it's "worthy"? As if being "worthy" of hacker news is some mantle everyone should strive for.

If you don't like it, don't vote for it. But I didn't quite feel like writing a long-form piece about my Apple Music woes and submitting it to the New Yorker this time.
I veered into an explanation, because I wanted to provide context for why there is a limited supply and why I consider cart timers to be fair and good practice in such a situation, unlike when they are used as a pressure tactic.

As another posted stated, if I were trying to advertise, I'm obviously not very good at it, my only connection with SMWS is that I'm a member and that I probably spend way too much money on whisky :-)
This is just an uneducated guess but is it possible that Tesla is just a company investing heavily in R&D of cars, and hasn't really begun to run a profit yet alongside some somewhat profitable speculative Bitcoin venture that Elon Musk's somehow put under the same roof?

According to that article if you split out the emission credits as well then they've made around -200% more profit selling Bitcoin and -600% more profit with emission credits than selling cars.

The fact that both are negative should tell you something's gone awry.
And Satoshi, just one person, owns tens of billions in BTC. That is the top 0.01%.

Zero issues.
Why would you submit a CV to a company/position you don't care about?
Ok, but most of the time you would like to test that change on a copy or almost up to date replica, to see measure things like how long it does take. If you were copying the data, with things like PII filtering, to the branch development database and allow folks to test it there it would be even more amazing. Great start tho!
The effect of ITAR is always overrated here. It's not some secret clearance. It just says that if you're not a US citizen or a "US person" you can't be involved with it. There's no security clearance required from the US government. So this guy who is likely a US citizen can look at it without issue. The issues are the trespassing on an active construction site among other issues.
This, my friends, is how business travel becomes nearly irrelevant.

This is a beautifully executed idea and if the demos live up to expectation the hype may even be warranted. But on a much more fundamental level (i.e. fancy 3D imaging and spatial audio aside), this also possibly suggests people would benefit from dedicated videoconferencing hardware. TVs and telephones do one thing really well (or at least historically they did), which is why even my legally blind grandpa could call his friends or watch^W listen to the news. There's a market for having a plug-and-play videophone now that we have the software to go inside it.

What are Zoom, Facebook or Apple waiting for?
Apple wants you to know it chose not to take a cut of $400B in physical goods
Tesla and Nvidia are entirely different from each other. Tesla's business model has been built on government subsidies, while Nvidia's business model is to sell product. One needs to create profit somehow, and the other is able to alienate one segment of purchasers in preference of another.
I felt similar anger for similar decisions. GPUs are complex pieces of hardware present in so much of our world but we are reliant on the manufacture to provide a driver to control the hardware. An open(source) driver is nice but doesn't allow you to do anything not documented, and open hardware is an nonstarter for capitalism with our weak IP laws(but hey let's protect a drawn mouse indefinitely.)

Nvidia has done things like this before and it can get worse. Imagine a future GPU where only authorized drivers have access to certain features, and I'm not talking about the difference between consumer and workstation GPUs unlocking a few obscure openGL functions in the drivers.
One difference at night is that it is cooler, so less water may be lost when the stomata are opened for gas exchange. Many plants (separately) evolved a photosynthesis cycle where gases need only be exchanged at night and the stomata may be closed during the day.[1] While the actual photosynthesis reaction happens during the day, the nighttime preparation is needed, and should perhaps be counted towards the effort.

If they included governmental owners, it'd dwarf these private holdings. For example, the largest landowner is really the United States Federal government: 640 million acres.
What's the market for second hand GPUs for scientific computing, compared to second hand GPUs for gaming?
I suspect eventually this will percolate down, somewhat like Facebook's Portal TV (£149) but possibly also integrated with something like a Google Assistant/Siri type smart device to power the software and do other smart-home type things in your home.

Many ordinary folk already have 4k TVs at home and 8k will probably become commonplace in the future. The real bottleneck will be good low-latency broadband both up and down, but fibre to the home should make that easier. I wonder if ISPs in the future will offer QoS guarantees to enable really good videoconferencing?

I mean, Zoom, Meet et al are much better than video conferencing solutions like Webex even from a few years ago, but it's hilarious how much drama there still is around video calls. "oh, sorry, I didn't realise I had muted myself", "can you hear me...?", "I think we just lost Steve", and so on. I'll be glad to see all of that just go away.
If they haven't found anything better than turbine engines and jet fuel there is no way.

You're not the only one. I am losing almost $500 in credits. I definitely won't be promoting them anymore. Guess I'll need to start looking for another company for my websites.
May I ask what you _do_ use for your personal notes instead? I'm always on the lookout for a new tool or workflow for my notes.
I think I read the new cards will require a higher driver version
I'm personally angry that this whole crypto ponzi scheme has gotten so big. That miners are producing e-Waste is the least of its environmental impact.
Just because Elon Musk does something it doesn't mean it has to make sense. Tesla's shareholders can trade bitcoins themselves. They don't need Tesla to do that.
Why would they publish that fact? You can pretend to be as many independent validators as you like.
Silicon based for one.
The inexorable march of technology will continue, curmudgeon or not. There's no reason this approach won't scale to groups or larger areas.
What if they do it effectively and AMD GPU end up twice as expensive because gamers and miners have to compete for cards and the miners want 30 and you want 1.
> I don't see how you could have a non "block" implementation?

I mean, documentation is mostly text, image and code. You can easily be document-based instead of block-based, like Confluence, Google docs ... you don't always need to be able to insert everything into everything.

I'm actually building a Confluence/Notion competitor, and it is document based. Being block-based makes a lot of things much more complex
I think it's less about the upfront cost and more about hashes per kilowatt-hour.
Cryptocurrency and the philosophical goals / ideals just don't match how they...are.
I’m not sure it curtails it rather than just generating new card types that can only mine coins and then are garbage
By your definition, "Calculus" is highly unscientific.

I think we know more about abiogenesis than you are giving us credit for.
My intuition is that a great lighting+microphone+speaker setup is necessary, but not sufficient, for this demo.

Even from viewing the short demo, the stereo display alone is an entirely new dimension that no amount of studio lighting will recreate. While better lighting and audio setup would certainly improve the average person's videoconferencing experience, this looks to be a genuine step beyond.

That said, we've been seeing holographic-display prototypes for the better part of a decade, and it'll be interesting if this actually pans out or fizzles.
Don't Asians have higher math scores than whites? Or do Asians not count as people of color anymore?
I think the cynicism is akin to apple removing the charger/headphones from new iPhones. They claim it's for environmental purposes, and maybe they really do care, but many think it's just a cash grab.
> Maybe it's a generational thing (born in '92), but Graham often seems to paint a picture of nerds similar to what you might see in movies and TV shows depicting the 80s, like the kids in Stranger Things.

Graham's characterizations of nerds reminds me of the "They don't know" meme[1] guy.

Wouldn't your own node unless properly hidden be higher chance of leaking your transactions? As I would expect them to come from your own node... Ofc, tracking the ones made from other services sure it is safer.
Their intent is to limit what people can do with their hardware. That strikes me as almost morally wrong. I tell the computer what to do. It doesn't tell me what to do.

I think cryptocurrency is a scam and I'll be glad if/when it goes away and graphics cards become cheap again. However, I will never support hardware manufacturers infringing on the idea of general purpose computing for the sake of their business model.

If they want gamers to get more graphics cards then make so many graphics cards that everyone will be able to afford them. Don't try to artificially limit what the hardware can do.
Advantageous even if you don't have a working prototype. See Microsoft vaporware
> they’re only reliable if many independent people mine

Sort of. It's a matter of establishing trust with buyers, holders, and the ecosystem. If a hypothetical 51% owner behaved as a good citizen (which is to say, their incentives were publicly aligned towards preserving value rather than exploiting double-spends), the confidence wouldn't necessarily erode. (Contrast with a nation-state or other hostile actor who performs a 51% attack with the express intent of theft or undermining trust, which has happened with smaller cryptos.)

The three largest BTC miners combined have been well over 51% of the hashpower for years now, and they could collude to crash or exploit BTC if they wanted; it's simply not currently in their interest. Yet more evidence that while Proof of Work was a clever hack in the original BTC whitepaper, it doesn't inherently lead to decentralization, and is functionally indistinguishable from Proof of Stake with extra steps.
I'm curious if Notion has any plans to make the "type" property user-extensible. Given the current data-structure, which decouples the block data from the way its rendered through the type property, a user has to define only one template for rendering arrangements of UI components (boxes, bullets, etc), titles and children. Extension could operate even at the level of derivation, where users could extend current base types with custom styling (color, font, size, border, etc) and child layout. As a plus, derivation would allow for blocks to be shared, with a fallback default rendering if users don't share custom types. Given the multi-dimensional nature of the uses of Notion (for work, personal projects, life management, etc), having types that were specific to their domain (grocery list, monthly budget table, contact card) would be a useful tool to semantically separate blocks by their presentation.
I can't believe this is so downvoted. So I, a gaming consumer, have to compete with bots every release because there's so much money in accommodating miner demand for the same cards? That's ridiculous

I think the problem with Paul Graham's writing is that it always comes down to talking about getting rich.

A lot of people - including very intelligent people - have other things they'd rather do than play such a stupid game. Unfortunately the world is pushing everyone in that direction which will create a lot of bitterness because most people necessarily lose that game.
Taking for example encryption, isn't it an unfair workload? Encryption is hardware accelerated nowadays, which means you won't get an apples-to-apples (heh) comparison of processors and computers.
Are you saying that GPUs are now competitive with ASICs when mining bitcoin?
In 3rd grade too. Word problems were always a bit more fun for me, especially if they required a bit of thought to figure out how to approach the problem, but being told to just follow an algorithm 100 times was unbearable.

Might be an adhd thing though. Different people learn in different ways.
Larry Ellison does own almost 98% of the Island of Lanai in Hawaii. It may not be that big of an island, but that's impressive in it's own right.
