I think Anandtech showed a M1 P-core could max out 50+GB/s on it's own, so 8 P-cores alone likely can use 400GB/s. With both the CPU+GPU, they'd be sharing the BW. A 3060/6700XT have ~360-384 GB/s, so game benchmarks should be interesting to see at high res.

Additionally, do the 24-core GPU and 32/64 GB RAM variants of the M1 Max all have 4 128-bit memory controllers enabled? The slide seems to just say 400GB/s (Not "up to"), so probably all Max variants will have this BW available.

The value is in the power efficiency here (N5P?+), and if you can afford a $3k+ laptop.

Honestly, the list goes on for so long that you would fill your disk with text before you exhausted it.

With this knowledge, you have to be woefully illogical to come to the blanket conclusion that "conspiracy theories" are just some form of ridiculous religion.

There are people who believe things that are totally ridiculous and unrealistic. There are idiots in all walks of life, but using those idiots to attempt to dismiss everything that you deem to be a "conspiracy theory" is as ridiculous as dismissing all comedians as "misogynistic racists" just because one comedian tells racist and misogynist jokes.
Raoult did a very unwise thing. When somebody publicly raises problems with your papers, you must act magnaminous and humble. Otherwise, when it inevitably turns out you cheated, at least you won't look so hypocritical (TL;DR Raoult could have kept his job with a more skillful response).

Still no LTE modem. The Apple Watch can be configured with an LTE modem, but the highest-end MacBook Pro cannot. Is this because of Qualcomm royalties? Is there any technical reason why the market has failed?
Linking weather dynamic and static is basically connecting interfaces.

Law is (in my understanding) normally based on concepts not technical implementation details.

As such for me the idea that there is a difference legal between static linking, dynamic linking or "linking together by a unix-pipe" sounds strange and irritating.

Instead I would argue weather or not something is a derivative of something else should depend on the conceptual usage of that thing, not some technical
implementation detail.

LOL.

He was 84 years old and his CANCER had already killed his immune system. What's so hilarious is all the liberals coming out saying "oh what a great man" all because "he died of covid".

These are the same people that would have been cursing him 15 years ago when he LIED about WMD to start a 20 year war.

Also, if he "died of covid" does that mean the vaccine doesn't work? Cause I thought the whole point of getting a vaccine was to prevent covid? It works or it doesn't - which one is covidians?

Apple and GNOME do this to avoid rounding errors when working in scalable layouts defined as screen-width percentages. Web browsers have accumulated all sorts of tricks and hacks to ensure that, say, floating four 25% width columns always adds up to the same width as a 100% column. This isn't a particular failing of CSS or the web - though CSS floats absolutely make this so much of a problem that browsers have to actually correct for this when users scale pages.

Exposing a 1x design to non-integer scale factors fundamentally runs the risk of breaking it - you will get odd pixel gaps or misalignments which would not occur at integer scales, because the virtual pixel coordinates no longer line up with actual screen pixels.
Both my parents came to the U.S. during Mariel. I didn't know that this year's economic Nobel Prize had gone to someone who studied the economic effects of people like my parents until I saw this post.

My parents always told stories about how one of them was one of the early arrivals and didn't go through any screening. The other arrived later and was quarantined in Army barracks in a state in the northeast while they were screened. I didn't know of the unrest in Arkansas during this time until I read this post.

Facebook, Google[0], Yelp, and every other digital advertiser define "impression" as a view, not a unique human. If Facebook did anything other than that, then that could be considered misleading.

We already discussed: "The number of people who saw your ads at least once."

Facebook provides a link to what they define is "people" and provide an example of this specific situation we are discussing [1]. We can even look back to Dec 2020 to see this definition [2], which is way before the announcement published.

Unfortunately, Facebook seems to of shuffled around their biz documentation page, so I can't easily find a direct source on wayback machine, but reachlocal.com in 2017 [3] published a blog article describing Facebook impressions as per view.

Please explain what there is to be mad about? There are no definition changes. Advertisers have always known that impressions were views. Advertisers have always known that there can be duplicate "reaches" due to 1 human managing multiple accounts (biz vs personal).

I’m assuming that running multiple 5-6k monitors will still require multiple cables/ports though. One thunderbolt port per monitor.

I’m still waiting for the day we can hook 2 5k monitors + peripherals up to a thunderbolt dock and then hook that up to a MacBook using a single cable.
Then where would you put the camera and the sensors that are in there? If you don't have the notch, you have to increase the size of the bezel. Since the notch lives in the empty area of the menu bar, it's a better solution than a bezel and gives more screen real estate in the same form factor.

Anyone transacting crypto with an entity that shares a legal jurisdiction is going to have the exact same legal remedies for fraudulent or mistaken transactions. Just because a transaction is settled in crypto doesn’t mean the counterparties are magically transported to an extralegal universe with no possible remedies.

The extra risk that crypto carries is a risk of “black hole” transactions—your mistake causes the money to be vaporized. There are many ways to avoid such a mistake, and I’d argue that the rate of accidental unspendable transactions is vanishingly low which would imply that this is basically a solved problem.

I certainly don't feel ignored as a developer by this update. The memory capacity and speed bump, and the brighter, higher resolution screen are very significant for me. My M1 Air is already a killer portable development machine because of how cool and quietly (silent) it runs. The 14" looks like a perfect upgrade for me.

What is missing for you as a developer?
I don't see the need to use evidence to argue against (or for Damore). Everything he said is just opinion, not an actual argument. If instead you want to have an interesting argument, people shoudl start with Larry Summers, who articulated the same question but in a much more intelligent way (and was still cancelled because of it!): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Summers#Differences_b...

https://web.archive.org/web/20080130023006/http://www.presid...

Anybody who cares about Damore's message one way or the other should go back and read what Larry said, and internalize it. A brilliant leader was cancelled because he spoke what is the most likely hypothesis to explain the observed data.

I'm unsure about this. On the one hand, it does seem unfair to exclude people who aren't rich from particular kinds of investment. On the other, it might be a good protection for the overall system. The investments we're talking about here aren't your everyday shares and funds, they're the riskier stuff. It doesn't play well on TV to show a grandmother crying over the loss of her retirement savings and some smarmy banker saying "well, Ms Strawman clearly accepted the risks that were set out plain as day on page 2915 of Annex A7 to the disclosure bundle". Before you know it, media pressure leads to bad regulations that mean no one is allowed to make these risky investments.
A guy that was "double vaxxed" "dies from covid".

So do vaccines work? Yes or no? It's a straight-forward question.

Here, I'll answer for you - he died from CANCER. He was 84 years old and CANCER already destroyed his immune system.

He didn't die from covid. He died FROM CANCER.

I find it very very funny that all these liberals are coming out saying he was such a great guy when the same liberals would've been demanding his arrest 15 years ago for LYING about WMD to start a 20 year war.

You fucking branch covidians are absolutely BATSHIT INSANE.

PHP with Java std lib is called JSP, with .NET it's called ASP; the request model is similar and the packaging can be quite minimal, even if the good practice favor complexity.

Also I don't think that you can have a simple language like Go and a decent type system like Typescript, to me those properties are in opposition.
Extra pixels on top of 16:10 iirc
I’m surprised no one has been talking about the story itself.

I think I was first exposed to it in Ray Bradbury Theater form, and it’s very much stuck with me, the idea that we in principle could have a better world if we had more hopeful messages and weren’t fed what to think and what to allow and what to feel powerless against by the powerful.

(Although of course my interest is in honest hopeful communication and not fabricated "evidence".)

I can only assume my original point wasn’t clear. The normal amount of decay heat is the best case possibility and should be handed just fine by any reasonable design. I don’t think there’s any reason to assume a design has that kind of fatal flaws. “quickly lose multiple GW of heat in an emergency and as much as 200+MW of heat for days after a shutdown.” Was in reference to something compounding the issue of which their’s two main issues either it didn’t shutdown quickly or it didn’t shutdown completely.

I am objecting to is the assumption that safety systems should assume things are fine in an emergency. Chernobyl had multiple compounding issues, many other accidents where less serious because X and Y happened but Z didn’t happen. Depending on such trends continuing results in a false sense of security.

A passively safe system doesn’t mean there isn’t damage. It’s perfectly reasonable for a design to say in the event of X, Y, and Z stuffs going to break. Causing a billion dollars in damage is a perfectly reasonable trade off, losing containment isn’t.

PS: Part of that is acknowledging bad designs are going to happen, we engineers are going to make mistakes. Which means not all assumptions hold.
Honestly, same. I was afraid I'd regret purchasing my M1 Air last year, but my needs for a personal laptop have gotten simpler as time goes on. I want a small, thin, and light laptop that's easy to travel with. I've got a big gaming PC if I need power.

My work will probably upgrade to these when it's time to refresh our work machines, but for my own personal use the M1 Air just hits all the sweet spots.
Yeah they do. I’m a fan of the comedian Tim Heidecker and and he recently launched a small subscription-based streaming site (https://www.heinetwork.tv/) for some of his projects that’s built on Vimeo
Cannot wait to get home to try this.

Perhaps I am a complete idiot, but I have off and on tried to get MPD reliable enough to do something like this and I can never make it happen consistently; the killer tends to be the separation between the interface/client and the audio stream. It's just so cumbersome and there doesn't seem to be a good reliable way to unify them easily and consistently.
It's about time Apple gave up on things that don't work. I'm curious about Force Touch though. The only times I've ever used it it's gotten in the way of what I really meant to do. The only good(?) thing I can say for it, is that like 'the notch', it's an Apple brand.
The question I want answered is not why a neutron takes so long to decay - that seems understandable as it's mitigated by the weak force - but why is that time of ~14.63 minutes the actual time it is?

When the W- boson decays into an electron and antineutrino it happens millions of times faster than the life of the neutron itself. What makes that trigger point happen when it does?
This looks incredible! Scheme syntax, ability to manipulate graphically, Scheme code updates dynamically? Very cool. I’ll have to try this for my next woodworking project.
Pointless for users. Not so for the business.
My dad is a professor of psychiatry at JHU medical school and has been telling me about this psilocybin study for years. He was always pretty strict about me doing drugs growing up, but now he's excited about the amazing results they're seeing in this study. He's even been asking me about my own hallucinogen experiences that I had growing up. The world is truly changing.
Intuitively, we learnt a lot about human behavior when we were able to do those unethical experiments back in the 60s and 70s. Set us back yes, but “set us back” by being moving us forward unsustainably.
My biggest gripe with DDG is that the search results are visually not as appealing as $GOOG, and I've tried several times to use it but it causes a barely perceptible eye strain for me and always end up back at big G.

I find the ddg results page to have too much decoration/not just the raw links/information. Maybe el Goog has just completely conditioned my brain after years of use.

Anyone else have a similar experience?

I'm more concerned about the lack of random sampling:

Leary and Alpert taught a class that was required for graduation and colleagues felt they were abusing their power by pressuring graduate students to take hallucinogens in the experiments. Leary and Alpert also went against policy by giving psychedelics to undergraduate students, and did not select participants through random sampling. It was also problematic that the researchers sometimes took hallucinogens along with the subjects they were supposed to be studying
People are confusing backup and sync. Backblaze will run an incremental backup of 20TB and 20GB for the same price, but you have to have 20TB or 20GB of storage attached to the backed up computer. It won't let you access files not on your computer without awkward workarounds, but it also doesn't charge the huge premium sync services charge for the storage.
Was Google Earth Stolen?
yep, thats definitely true

but it would be nice if the soc itself would be a module that you could upgrade and keep the case/display, it would also cut down on environmental impact probably as well...
ASIO should have been good enough but didn't help itself with really poor documentation.

Async, and the associated battles with how it should be done, hasn't exactly shone C++ with glory. std::future was broken from the get-go and only enabled pseudo-aysnchronicity (the thread calling get() is blocked). std::async is pointless, and std::task... meh.

Coroutines too have duelling proposals I believe.

Personally, it seems like I'll still be using ASIO to save me from the socket boilerplate code and will push 'work' onto queues served by dedicated threads.

Sender/Receiver looks interesting. Eric Neibler gave an interesting talk on them on youtube. But if they, too, force me into a pattern where a thread spawns a chain of async tasks, and then waits/blocks at the end for them to complete, then I don't see this as much of an improvement. Maybe it's really just a more lightweight std::future? Only time will tell.
> which has half the ports of the one from 10 years ago, but costs 3x as much

I'm with you right up 'til that '3X as much' part - MacBook Pros have remained static or gone down in real prices over the last decade - not 3x higher.

I wouldn't hold CIA and other intel agencies up as a bastion of virtue, and I appreciate they've done a lot of terrible things. I can't really make broader moral judgements about how they handle their respective missions, though, since they mostly operate in the dark. All I can say about the CIA, for example, is they're somewhere between A: the most oppressive, lawless, brutal institution to exist post WW2, and B: flawed saviors of humanity from nuclear/other apocalypse. Who really knows? Those that do probably can't say much.

Intel agencies do have the problem that if they go off the rails, there's not many paths to reform outside of direct involvement. I also strongly suspect that they're doing some terrible and unnecessary things to this day (e.g. still ruining lives in a protracted battle with Marx's ghost) and need reform, but that's really the strongest claim I can make.
