Whilst it would be nice, we would be adding a lot more heat into the CPU block. Maybe they could and add extra cooling on the other side, though would really be looking at reinventing the CPU socket and thoughts of Intel Slot-1 form factor start to become appealing again as a form factor to allow such cooling solutions.

Now what we have over the years seen interest in is adding processing cores to the RAM itself and maybe having a small dedicated processor for some tasks attached to the RAM may well prove viable.

Imagine if we didn't have any CPU or RAM sockets/slots and just a row of slots you addedd a module that had CPU/RAM in one and can just add more upto the slot limit. But then, that is kinda how GPU's have gone already in many aspects and look at how much RAM they hold and how large the cooling solution for them is.
That gives you an idea of the cooling needed for large amounts of processing and RAM when closely packaged.
This problem may be surmountable, but eventually it seems likely that youtube will be closed to hackers and freeloaders. It's sad in the general sense -- but of course Google is free to modify their services however they like. Hosting all that video is not free and currently they support it via advertising.

This means that any consumer of Youtube should expect that eventually Youtube may stop working for them -- and perhaps all the content they love on Youtube will eventually become unavailable.
> Email? Gmail's constantly increasing (at the time) mailbox size was a game changer back when it first came out.

Google created a new email service, they did not take over existing email infrastructure.

At least initially anyway, these days it's become quite hard to run your own email and have your messages be received.

I’ve been using them for over a year now and they are great. Adding new features often and kDrive is rock stable. The download speeds could be a bit better to the US but I’m willing to accept that for the privacy and quality of the product.
Take a look at the EU's Audiovisual Media Services Directive [https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/avmsd] and you'll have your answer for why this feature exists.
> Some people prefer to work from an office (like me) just because you get to spend time with people (I live alone).

You can't just write something like that and then accuse someone of a "big incorrect assumption". Work is work, I work to do my job, if you want to go to the office to be with people because otherwise you live alone that's okay, but you can't just turn around an say "I have plenty of friends, it's about being more productive".
As someone who has my yellow vaccine passport from the WHO because I travel to South America, I disagree with this sentiment. I view this move by the EU more akin to TSA than the yellow fever vaccine. I believe it will turn into strictly an annoyance to travelers. The premise of TSA was straightforward response to a bad thing that occurred and turned into a useless beast and these programs appear to have the same fingerprints. For example, what is different now than before when we didn't require proof of seasonal flu shot (or any vaccine for that matter)? Are we admitting this was a mistake? If so, then why just COVID? Add MMR, DTaP, and seasonal flu to the list. Is this a temporary program until COVID-19 is sufficiently vaccinated against? If so, why is this not the first thing mentioned? What about new variants of the disease? Will we need booster shots every year? If so, then we've already significantly diverged from the yellow fever program. If this is only COVID-19, then why even bother with the program? Inevitably, I believe the program will turn into TSA and have scope creep and will never get abolished. They will continue explaining the need for their existence to keep their jobs at the detriment to only travelers. The only way I could get behind any such program is a clear end date written into law.
The underlying cryptographic technology here: "Verifiable Credentials" is quite exciting. If you have ever wondered "why aren't bureaucracies using digital signatures?" then VCs are interesting.

It's a pretty decent technical spec for signing statements like "This person has this age" or "this person is vaccinated" or "this person is authorized for this bank-account as executor of a will". It is a spec written by cryptographers and hackers.

At the same time, it is a spec being used by banks, governments, and health-care. That is, its not just a nice technical ivory tower idea, it is actually liked by people who would use it.
Why do these organizations want to use this? Because, without cryptographic guarantees, your business processes involve a whole lot of bureaucracy, manual checking of data, implicit trust relations, and friction (so much friction).

That friction is part of why people would actually want to use it. Essentially, all you need to do to share required data is scan some QR codes. Another, maybe more important part, is control over your data.
You determine who you show your VC. It is not needed for two organizations to have access to all of their shared data they need. They give the used the data, and the user hands it over, or he doesn't.

The general concept behind all of this is sometimes called SSI (Self Sovereign Identity).

It gives one the freedom to choose not to actively participate.

In person, it's not considered polite to take a breath and step away to think for 10 minutes before responding. So it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind.

Remote, there's room to pause, reflect, and decide how to respond. That makes it a lot easier to choose not to engage. Does that mean that you're often letting the white collar Machiavellis have their way? Yes. But perhaps that's not your problem. It's often easier to choose not to have it be your problem when you're physically removed from the situation.
If Firefox is not free software because it is able to run un-free binary blobs on your computer, then the same is true of (e.g.) Linux.
That’s a thing that can be forgotten when comparing roads to rail - they both cut across the countryside but the equivalent number of trains interrupt the landscape less - for a single “front” it stretches quite long.

I wonder if predators will take advantage of these bridges.
I hope things continue to change. Pre pandemic I feel all my labor was rewarded on the results and not effort. I felt that for myself too. Long commutes and messy house and difficult family relationships. I think a lot of people are finally seeing the relative effort sometimes far out-weights the results/cost.
Facebook has started approving remote work but only for E5's and higher. I think that will limit the usefulness of having the more junior folks in the office but I guess it makes sense.

Something material to point out as your contribution to firefox when you're interviewing for your next job.
The argument only fails if the phenomenon is both motivated to do this, and capable of doing it without fail for decades.

i.e. it not only has to not be natural/dumb, it has to choose this pointless course of action, and execute it without failure.

The Wegmans nearest my house has free charging for EVs, but only two spots. Your use case is the ideal, I think, but we're a long way from being able to support it. Rough guess, I'd say there are often more than a hundred cars in that parking lot.

This is a solvable problem, but it does need to be solved, and I don't think anyone really knows what the optimal solution looks like. Does Krogers start a side business selling electricity to its customers? Does a charging network lease space in their parking lot? What self-driving is actually a thing, do we just have our cars go charge themselves while we shop?

Electrification is a necessary change, but it's also a huge change, with a lot of ramifications and ripple effects we're still thinking through.
It's not about the limit, but about the tying of identity. If you enter a CC number, Google will then be able to know exactly who viewed the video. If you use youtube-dl, or even ad-blocking, who knows if that violates some T&C, and they could then shut down all accounts connected to you...

Patched indeed. I used this trick for ages, but it doesn't work for some time now.
I didn't mean the icon, but there's now a line for actual text besides the page title, which I'm assuming is/can be used to display useful info.
My initial reaction to the beta version was that the UI was much worse, but I decided to give it a chance and spend a few weeks trying to get used to it.

Now that I've had time to play with it, I'm even more convinced my initial reaction was correct. But I've also had time to reflect on why, and in my view there are two problems with this new design.

Removing visual separators from the tabs makes them much harder to distinguish - the only difference between one tab and the next is a larger horizontal space. In prose, when we want to separate sentences, we don't just use longer spaces; we use other visual indicators like capital letters and full stops (periods). Paragraphs are separated by vertical space, which is visually distinct from a horizontal one.

The second problem is that the tab you're not supposed to click on (the active tab) looks like a button, while the tabs you are meant to click on (the inactive tabs) are presented as text. This is opposite to normal UX conventions.

There are some subjective improvements to the look and feel of this UX change, but overall I'm confused as to why the Firefox UX team would go against established conventions to produce something that's visually more difficult to use and less intuitive than they had before.

Fortunately userChrome.css is still usable if you set an about:config option (toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets), so I can see about fixing the problem myself, but I'm concerned that Firefox's march toward reduced configurability will eventually remove this option.

Overall, my concerns on Firefox are the same as most; in the pursuit of market share, they're moving further and further away from their roots by removing customisation options. Remember when you could change Firefox's theme without using hidden configuration options?
The only possibility is to get out of Youtube (and other walled gardens) as soon as possible. Talk to your favorite content producers about Peertube, maybe setup an instance with some friends if you're sure you can handle that for the coming decade and not close down in 6 months time.

Both viewers and producers are heavily dissatisfied with Youtube. Time to move on.
If you ride a bicycle on the roads in Texas it's pretty bleak. You can expect to see 4-5 dead animals in any mile. The buzzard population is doing well because we don't pick up roadkill anymore. But it puts into perspective how many animals die from car collisions. It's like riding along a 100 foot wide, 200 mile graveyard.
> it will not be some obvious, monumental, instantaneous change, but rather the slow, creeping change where a few years from now, we'll look back and see that society is just different.

Hasn't it always been like that ? History books make it look like the world radically changes step by step (printing press, the cinema, the radio cars, planes, &c.) but in reality it's always spread over decades.

If you live through these historical moments it's always a gradual change, it's only when you look back at history that you can pin point events (while discarding half of the story most of the time)
How to Defend Against Inflation?
I think NVMe is pretty close to feature parity with SCSI, or at least the subset of SCSI that is actually relevant. NVMe includes thin provisioning, some copy offload, atomic operations and of course deallocate/trim—which I think covers all the VAAI features.

Why would you take less money for the same work output?
I mean, sure on the one hand we're not super famous. But on the other, we get to make stuff like Twitter so, I guess what I'm saying is roll your character carefully.
"Modified" Harvard though. The M0 has unified main memory, so JIT wouldn't be immediately ruled out.
I suppose a subset of 1 is: failure to consider stresses during construction, and only doing the calculations on the final product (FIU pedestrian bridge failure).
So a couple of things to note there.

First, a great deal of research shows that working past 8 hours of day for long stretches actually -reduces- overall output compared with working 8. Now, to be fair, the bulk of this research was done on physical labor, not mental, but interestingly, what research -has- been done on mental found the same thing, except the actual hours was more like...6.

Second, you're working at a place that actively -encourages- you to work unpaid overtime. That sees it happening and rather than saying "what can we do to prevent this and not risk burnout" instead says "good. Keep at it". If you're salaried, you're effectively getting paid a lower hourly rate for the work you're doing. So...not to beat this horse again...but...look for another job. It doesn't sound like the pay is great, it doesn't sound like the environment is great. The only thing keeping you there is a belief you can't get anything better; maybe that's true, maybe it isn't, but it certainly will be true if you don't at least look.

How to Drive Thousands of Targeted Visitors to Your Blog for Free
Well, the "Smart" screen says that WinMerge and KDiff3 are malwares.

Naturally I trust both of them more than so called SmartScreen because unlike Smartscreen, I can inspect their code. Yes, the binaries can contain malware, but the first principles tell me that trustability score is inverse of what is being reported by MS.

Naturally I have disabled Smartscreen and Windows defender and admin rights alerts and bajilion things that internet gurus will tell me not to because I don't know what's good for me. Needless to say, my PC runs faster, calmer and is actually malware free because I don't run unauditable things like Smartscreen on it.

Edit: I get WinMerge binary from GitHub repo, and KDiff3 from official website. As trusted as it can get, short of compiling myself.

This is a work machine so I can't control most of Windows behavior. Personal machine runs NixOS for 90% tasks + Windows dual boot for games without connecting to network because I can't be bothered with disabling Smartscreen and defender every other week.
Most frustrating is the YouTube video quality with Chromecast. I can get some 4K to my tiny cellphone, but Chromecast projected to 190" picture on the wall is locked to some unknown SD that is compressed to smithereens making it completely unwatchable.
The commute isn't always dead time though. For me, the 3hr round trip was spent playing computer games on my Nintendo Switch, or reading a book, or just letting my mind wander while listening to music. All of these are activities I don't get time to do at home because of the thousand other commitments I have at home.

You'd think working from home would give people more free time, but that's not always the case, for example if you have small children. Don't get me wrong, I love spending time with my family, but the commute was the only "me time" I had in a given day and I miss that dearly.

Monitoring Memory Usage for Erlang and Elixir Applications
I thought Americans liked manufacturing labor. As I understand it, it's mostly farm labor that's accused of being "don't want to do". Farm labor is dirty, dangerous, and uncomfortable. Manufacturing isn't exactly fun but it used to be the dream job for low-skilled employees who wanted a lifetime occupation.

That problem, I've heard, is the rest of it: labor was cheaper elsewhere, and now that we've outsourced so much, we lack the infrastructure. I suspect we could do it, if we chose, and the labor would be there. But it would require a ton of money up front, setting up not just one factory but an entire ecosystem.

And even then it wouldn't be any cheaper; shipping advantages are more than outweighed by labor costs. (The labor is there, but there's a minimum wage, and they want it to be higher.) Maybe if there's a cycle time advantage, being able to get to market weeks earlier. But that's an entirely different kind of manufacturing.
Thanks for suggestion. They both are outliner but logseq is looking good, I will try that one, but these are still not what I want.

To compute a norm without overflow (unless it is totally unavoidable), let m be the maximum of the absolute values of the components. Divide each component by m, compute the square root of the sum of squares, and multiply by m. Only the last step might overflow, and if it does, it could not be avoided in any case. Incidentally, this normalization procedure also avoids underflow problems.
Often it isn't much of a choice at all. American cities are such that living near a workplace simply isn't feasible for many. It is common to be financially intractable, and American cities are actively hostile to families/children. So the people who get to "choose" to prioritize living near their workplace is generally restricted to relatively high-income earners who are single with roommates or perhaps are dual-income with no children.

That's a relatively small slice of workers.

These kids are letting themselves be exploited.

They are being 'paid' with useless perks like luxury accommodations, and shoes and clothes.

The 'perks' aren't even a reward, but are the just 'products in use' that the advertisers are using to make money.

In olden days, as exploitative as it was, you'd still have to pay a model to wear your clothes if you wanted to create an ad campaign. Now they'll do it for the 'privilege' of having cool gear.
Snide viewpoints like this are one of the main reasons people with mental illness often hide their conditions and suffer in silence.

Agreed with the above. I'll also add that for many years my wife and I have had the goal of living in Europe (we're Americans) but finding suitable work in Europe seemed nearly impossible:

* EU work visas seem very hard to get

* EU software jobs seem to pay ~40% less than comparable American jobs before taxes (and EU taxes are more significant)--this leaves little slack for travel

* My wife's field is communications/marketing and she's pretty specialized to English/American-culture and the demand is quite a lot lower for her industry than mine

Then there's the hassle of long-term remote: figuring out taxes, selling our home, the logistics and costs of moving those possessions we're unwilling to sell to Europe, etc.

Work-from-home enables us to work from Europe for a few months at a time--we'll have to work odd hours (~2pm-9pm iirc) and we'll probably have to pay Europe rent and our American mortgage; however, we'll probably take most of our vacation during our abroad months so the odd hours will only apply for a few weeks and we can afford the additional housing cost (especially if we save for it during the months we're in the US). I think the tax situation should be okay since we'll be in the US for the majority of the year, but I need to find out for sure.

It _sounds_ like you're speaking in absolutes though, lacking nuance. If you are, my reply to absolutes would be that we should stop enforcing alcohol sales to minors, as it's the parent's job to ensure kids their don't drink.

Personally i think age verification is good. This implementation is moronic, though. And all around it's very, very difficult. So difficult that it may never be useful.
Hmmm. If I chose a chip with the resources to run this Toit thing, I can reduce costs by switching to a cheaper, less powerful chip and writing native code. If I'm shipping several million of these, it's a no-brainer; it saves real money. In some products I've worked on, saving ten cents per board would be a big deal. Also note that you're paying more than money; fancier and more capable chips usually consume more power, so imagine some lively conversations with the industrial design folks about battery lifetime and size, too.

If you're using off-the-shelf consumer-y ESP things, you're likely insensitive to cost and you're probably paying for performance you don't need.

I last saw this technique (maybe 15 years ago) used by a super tiny .NET runtime environment intended for devices like smart watches; you wrote to "tiny" APIs, a tool did a bunch of reprocessing of your binary into smaller tables and whatnot, and poof, it would run on a watch. With all the GC and so forth going on, it's not something I'd want to write a whole embedded system in, though it was okay for applets.

I'm not oblivious to the security advantages of using a bytecode interpreter, but on a high-volume product you'd have to make a case for how important this kind of thing is.
I would never use a co-working space. I want to be home, not in some pseudo office.

I also wonder how the end of pandemic norms will effect people who claim they want to be in the office. If they can get their socialization outside the office, we could see a resurgence of neighborhood clubs.
I came across this article a few weeks ago. The 23% number seems to be from this poll https://morningconsult.com/influencer-report-engaging-gen-z-...

The author is mistakenly adding the 12% and 11% numbers. The real proportion is around 12% of young people. Given that in the poll, "influencer" is used basically synonymously with "celebrity" (Will Smith is considered an influencer) I'd say this is pretty reasonable actually.
Challenging to overcome languages like C++, Rust, Java, and C#. D seems to sit somewhere in between, a better C++, but with (optional) GC. The thing is, Java and C# are already making strides into that space.
