As far as I know, there surprisingly aren't other options. I also assumed they would have something else up their sleeve that was stronger than OTC ibuprofen but weaker than a morphine analogue. But, the three classes of analgesics really seem to be Tylenol, NSAIDs, and opioids. A few other things are usable for anesthesia but not something you can prescribe as a pill for at-home pain control. There is also some evidence for cannabinoids, but they're stuck in legal limbo. The other thing that comes to mind is that benzodiazepines can also help in some patients. They don't have a direct analgesic effect, but can help people relax or sleep so as to ignore pain (they can also be habit-forming, but probably not to the same extent as opioids).
If Hertz offers up their locations as supercharger locations... that's a LOT of locations to add to the supercharger network with a willing partner to help finance it and maintain it.

Kind of like how the dealer networks, which SHOULD be a massive advantage for Ford/GM to place chargers (and shadow market cars) and build out a huge charging network... well, that's not happening because dealers hate EVs.

But did Intel use liquid nitrogen cooling to achieve this?

I am joking but just a bit. Intel has long history of dirty tricks when it comes to benchmarks - using liquid nitrogen cooling and not mentioning it, manipulating the compiler to generate slower code on competing CPUs, terms of service forbidding publication of benchmarks, fuzzy use (or not mentioning it at all) of TWP/energy usage.

What they say can only be used as an upper bound of how it actually is. The odds are is that it's much worse and with some strings attached as well.
With many developed countries passing laws to ban the sales of petrol and diesel passenger cars by 2030 or 2035, do all the companies you mention actually have a strong future of growth?

Do you want to buy stocks in companies that have a strong future of growth, or who have always made a lot of money doing one thing, and expect to keep making money doing that same old thing, even though it's clearly not going to last.

While they're not going to die overnight, I suspect they're not going to be worth all that much by 2050, and ~nothing by 2075.

Is none at Apple actually using FaceTime? I remember seeing group FaceTime for the first time approx a year ago. It looked like a 90' screen saver. I was completely astonished. Like 10 years ago was late for this kind of update.
I had a lot of trouble wrapping my head around this years ago:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47538712/what-determines...
This line of reasoning reminds me the time when Android came out and people were predicting the imminent death of then-newborn iOS. Tesla is Apple of car manufacturing. That much is pretty obvious if you drive one of their cars. They seemingly deliberately depart from what everyone else is doing. And my bet would be that they'll continue to do so, and continue building out technological capabilities that no other manufacturer would even be able to imagine, let alone build, such as e.g. their own AI training silicon, new battery tech, material science stuff, deeper automation of manufacturing, etc, etc.

That said, I don't understand their stock price either, even in the light of all that, so I don't own any of their stock.

But my next car will be a Cybertruck. Once you go electric there's really no going back. And that's how it ought to be in general: green options _must_ be better all around (perhaps with the exception of price, though I'm sure price differential will go down over time), not a fucking "tofurky" style garbage that no one would buy if it wasn't "green". Because you can make people tolerate things "for the greater good", but you can't make them like things that suck, at least not for long.
As a first step toward your wish, I suggest using mycli or pgcli on servers instead of the default mysql or pgsql client. By default, it asks for confirmation whenever you type a destructive command. It does have a log, just like the official CLI clients. It also provides completion and syntax highlighting.

With Electricity prices topping $0.30/kWh in many places, this is no longer true...

Unless you also have solar panels at home and want to have the hassles of making sure your EV only charges on sunny days, you're going to be paying rates for electricity close to rates for dinosaur-fuel, especially if you're comparing to a modern 60 mpg gas car.

Point the gun to the ground. You pull the slide back, which exposes the chamber. You can plainly make out whether there's something in it or not, and see if the cartridges are blanks or have bullets. Same thing goes for revolvers, you can just pop the cylinder and pull out a few rounds.

Addiction and the addictive ness of drugs is a multi factorial gradient. It requires the right psychosocial conditions, the right environment, and the right drug, and a person who might become a heroin addiction one day may not be so at a different point in their life.

Roughly 1-2% of people who try heroin once are done forever; many many try once or twice and aren’t. For cigarettes the rate is about 20-30% who become addicted
Great write-up!

If memory serves, although instructions can execute out-of-order, they retire in-order (hence the "re-order buffer").

> the closer you get to optimal on your chosen metrics, the more cost is shifted to unmeasured externalities.

This is not inevitable in my experience. You can achieve optimizations that also reduce the dependency on external things. For some of us, this is one of the objectives of optimization. 3rd party dependencies == externalized cost.

The real game for me is to solve the problem using correctly-allocated empathy. Building a product to streamline back office operations? Empathize with the user and the buisness processes. Building an options exchange which must handle at least 1 million orders per second? Empathize with the computer hardware. Optimizing for one factor vs another and your willingness to take on external cost should all be driven from this perspective.

Governments usually have their own standards and rules on which names they would recognize and how they would store them. They would reject names that are impossibly long or can only be spelled with homegrown writing systems, same as they would reject stuff like "Fuuk Yu".

Edit: on the downside, they would probably also reject many reasonable names.

But, then does programming. In C, there's at least three (arguably more) ways of doing a loop.

You can use for (...) { ... }, you can use while (...) { ... }, and you can use do { .... } while ( ... ).

Of course, which one you pick depends on context. But, then, which one of sqrt or "raised to 1/2" you choose also depends on what's more convenient at the time.
The US system isn't better because we don't have government officials who want to spy on us. The US system is set up assuming that's what all governments do eventually.

The US system is superior to China because we have checks and balances that actually: 1) uncover this stuff, 2) share it with the public, 3) have a system to provide feedback, 4) courts to uphold rights.

The US system isn't perfect and it isn't always fast, but the point is there is a system of checks and balances that hopefully bring it back to what the people intend it to be.
This isn't just a very profitable deal for Tesla, it is a strong indicator towards that electric cars are really around to stay and that the electric car market is growing quickly. If it is more profitable for Hertz to buy Teslas than other brand cars, it should be for most car rentals and probably also most other customers.

Not too long ago Elon talked about Tesla making up to 20 million cars per year in 2030. That would make Tesla twice as large as VW, the currently largest car manufacturer. Of course this statement was treated as Elons typical optimism, but deals like this pave the way to that actually coming true.

> Self defense gun usage occurs very regularly

Actually no.

The research generally points towards defensive gun use being rare and, when it does happen, are associated with escalated arguments, and are both socially undesirable and illegal. "A majority of the reported self defense gun uses were rated as probably illegal by a majority of judges. This was so even under the assumption that the respondent had a permit to own and carry the gun, and that the respondent had described the event honestly. Guns are used to threaten and intimidate far more often than they are used in self defense. Most self reported self defense gun uses may well be illegal and against the interests of society." [1][2]

I really thought I stamp out the "Unified Memory" and "On Package Memory" being the reason why M1 is faster on HN.

>The M1 max comes with integrated hbm

It is not HBM, just a very wide LPDDR5.

>hence why 3d cache for Zen is a 15% improvement

Increasing Cache size has nothing to do with Bandwidth. It is the latency and cycle count that matters.

>Modern Intel/AMD processors are memory bottlenecked in multicore workloads

Depending on Workload. The whole reason why Apple has put those bandwidth in place was because of GPU, which are bandwidth sensitive. The M1 Pro has the same MT performance as M1 Max despite only have half the memory bandwidth.

You could have much faster memory on an Intel x86 system, and performance wouldn't even make that much different. Your whole CPU uArch needs to be designed take advantage of the additional bandwidth. Longer pipeline with better prefetch.

>and on package memory means the M1 has much higher bandwidth

Again. There are no relationship between on package memory and high memory bandwidth. You could have achieve the same with DDR5 with DIMM slot. At the expense of much higher energy usage.
From what we’ve seen, the M1 design is quite modular. I don’t see a reason why they could not use 4 or 6 high-performance CPU clusters and a low-core GPU for a server part of they wanted. No GPU at all might be impractical because a lot of things in the OS might have come to expect one.

Anyway, it’s academical because I don’t see them doing that. Expect maybe to power their own datacenters, but then we’d never hear about it.
Also skype harvested users computers. I noticed that when skype was running the harddrive will be constantly accessed, on an otherwise idle computer. Checking with process explorer showed that skype has a lot of disk reads (hundreds of MB). This was the reason why it got uninstalled.

I do think we have to temper the level of surprise somewhat.

The key thing in consumer silicon chip design is always individual core design (or designs, there's Firestorm and Icestorm in big little). That's what matters for single threaded workloads.

Fully parallelized workloads in a consumer laptop are just exceedingly rare. Plus it's exceedingly pointless to do lengthy multi-threaded development on a laptop, it's going to overheat and under-clock. SSH into a cloud instance and develop in an identical environment to where you deploy.

Apple vastly exceeded expectations by making enormous silicon dice, and tying in vastly more GPU, bandwidth, and parallelism than expected. To the joy of video editors everywhere (which cannot be done over ssh).

But for people who watch closely, the M1 Max delivered exactly what was expected, plus a gargantuan GPU and memory bandwidth.

The M1 Max is still ultimately the A14's Firestorm/Icestorm cores, in a MBP form factor, delivering amazing idle and low power consumption performance, and single threaded that matches Intel/AMD's desktop chips, at a far lower PPW because of the node shrink.

Given that the A15 still features the Firestorm/Icestorm core design, it's almost guaranteed that we'll have to wait till 2023 to see a more than marginal uplift in single threaded workloads and low power performance.
…which by the way is also an approach Richard Feynman took: He basically stopped drinking because he liked thinking itself way too much to ever let something impair that.

I‘m fortunate enough to be able to keep my drinking level at a point that helps me socialize and enhance enjoyment (the occasional bottle of wine with friends and peers), but not above.

I‘ve also experimented with drugs in the past because I was just too curious, but in the end, I was lucky to not end up some place I didn‘t want to.

By now I’ve experienced that ability wasn‘t just personal strength, but also my predisposition and experiences.

That does‘t excuse anyone from not trying harder, but it was a sober reminder for me to see that addiction is a way steeper slope for some of us.
That’s actually cool news. I use Sentry in my private side projects and I quite like it. But at work, deploying another service that we would have to maintain was never an option. So an integrated Sentry backend is actually pretty helpful.
It becomes interesting if you project this onto the programming languages space: "python lets you get started faster. Ocaml lets you finish earlier" (NN)
But even at those electricity prices, the cost per mile is still cheaper than with an ICE car. And fuel prices are going to raise further with higher carbon taxing.
A certain kind of driver does this. It's as if they live in a binary world. Either "go faster" or "go slower".

actually, I nearly always buy the tank because my time is worth more than <$x>, it's one less thing to stress about, and the refill prices are really punitive and when it's on your dime, they top it up.
It's not a good proxy for comparing demand and sales between Tesla and, say, GM. GM has a network of franchisees and Tesla doesn't, because Tesla wants the profits (sales, service, whatever) for themselves, but state laws won't let them own dealerships.

So, if you want to compare GM and Tesla's market caps, you need to lump the appropriate fraction of GM's franchisees' market caps in with GM's in order to make them comparable.

Hmm, I cannot imagine why it would cost $100K for a super charger unless they are for some reason much more expensive then regular chargers. And again the marginal cost per charger has got to be an order of magnitude lower than the first charger because trenching is very expensive but each parking space isn't very far from each other. i.e I'm guessing that putting a handful of superchargers in a lot of different places is much more expensive than putting a lot of chargers in one location.

In any case, I know that regular charger's are very simple they are really just glorified relays so it might make sense to use non-superchargers if they are actually much more expensive.

Sure most rental places aren't cash heavy ATM but they aren't the ones buying 100k Tesla vehicles.

You see, biology is a system as least as complicated as any computing infrastructure we have.
