> sometimes to travel just a few hundred miles (i.e. SFO to LAX)?

Nothing wrong with flying from LA to SF.

Driving 400 miles gets old pretty quick. Depending on how heavy your foot is, that's ~6 hours of driving, and along one of the most boring stretches of road (I-5) imaginable. You will also need to stop and take breaks. And if you take PCH, it's 8 hours of winding road. Do that once for fun, but not twice.

In terms of cost, a one way ticket LA to SF or vice-versa is $39. You can get those at short notice. Assuming 30 mpg at whatever high speed you will be traveling, driving the 400 miles will cost you ~13 gallons, so if gas is $3 per gallon, there's no price difference between flying and driving. And in CA, gas is $4.50 now, so you'd be crazy to drive, as that trip will cost you $60 just in terms of gas.

Your time is also valuable. If you get to the airport an a hour head, then it's 1 hour at airport, 1 hour flight, 30 min getting out of plane and picking up luggage. Let's say at most 3 hours travel time, enter SFO to exit LAX.

You can buy a business class ticket for $80. Do yourself a favor and get the business class seat and watch a movie or take a nap. You will be first to board and exit, saving time.

If you value safety, flying is much safer.

I recall the book “Change your brain, change your life” covers the link between brain trauma and eventual drug abuse as a way to counter an undiagnosed medical issue.

Although I’m not 100% sure it was that book - For curiosity: I’m wondering if Jack had any history of concussion or other head injuries before the addiction.

It was also mentioned that these patients had to be prompted multiple times before they remember accidents like falling off their bikes or tripping etc. as they would promptly forget and get on with their lives.

As someone who lives in south-east Queensland, Australia, lower TDPs and thermal output is always welcome, at least for me. I adore my Ryzen 5600X/3060 Ti mini-ITX desktop, but mining on it makes my room annoyingly warm, and it's not even summer yet.

How does this differ semantically from the C ternary operator? Not syntactically, in its outcome and expression of a testable boolean clause, and a left or right side choice which is the assignment value?
OK, here’s the performance. Factor of 2.2X over its peers (other laptop SKUs) in multithreaded performance, going head to head with 5950X in some (floating-point) scenarios.

https://images.anandtech.com/graphs/graph17024/117496.png

Why do you think megahertz myth is relevant here? Core for core A15/M1 is plainly faster than any of its peers, ignoring clocks, and it is even farther on top when you do look at clocks (i.e. IPC). It doesn’t matter at all which way you look at it, unless you are putting M1 up against HEDT SKUs like 3990WX - there are a few non-peer scenarios like that it only ties x86 in, like OP looking at task energy (3990WX gets to use 280W TDP/375W PPT and race to sleep) but that’s still an incredibly good outcome considering the loaded test, and Mac Pro with its 32+8 configuration will almost certainly be back on top in the “peer” comparison scenario.

It’s amazing how much breath was wasted on “IPC is what really matters” when Ryzen came out and now it’s “the other side of the megahertz myth” when Apple is on top. Ryzen was never even remotely close to being in the lead on IPC compared to where Apple currently is.

Even at iso-power you are looking at a factor-of-3-to-4 difference in performance - I was being generous with the “only 3x IPC” thing. That is what Anandtech measured in their review. And that still means a gap of 4x perf/watt - which is better than 6x for sure, but it doesn’t mean low-clocked x86 magically beats A15.

Seems kinda straightforward to me, especially compared to the complexity of other web APIs? It's just a couple classes and functions. What am I missing?

It's not easy to read, but web specs are always written in over complicated and overly detailed prose that might as well have been written by a lawyer.
The technological state of the art at the backend is a circle. You don't have to squint that hard to see the similarities between a hypervisor running hundreds of VMs and a mainframe running hundreds of batch jobs. The difference is just that the mainframe is usually (but not always) co-located with the bank. But small bank branches might completely lack mainframe systems on their own.

For the record: dLite.io is a low-code platform I have been working on to build front ends (similarly to bubble.io). It is ongoing work, but it already has many examples (and the website itself is made with dLite.io). It differentiates from others because it comes with a built-in support of the local-first paradigm. (web site: https://www.dlite.io, platform, with examples: https://plaform.dlite.io).

Literally nothing provides 100% efficiency. You're conflating coefficient of performance with efficiency. They're not even close to the same thing, modern heat pumps reach their CoP because they don't actually generate heat, they simply move it around, which provides more heat indoors than if you had converted an equivalent amount of electricity directly into 100% heat.

Thermodynamics would not take kindly to you having a >99.999...% efficient anything.

Heh, 10 years ago I gave a presentation about how easy folks used to x86 can trip up when dealing with ARM's weaker memory model. My demonstration then was with a naive implementation of Peterson's algorithm.[1]

I have a feeling that we will see a sharp rise of stories like this, now that ARM finds itself in more places which were previously mostly occupied by x86, and all the subtle race conditions that x86's memory model forgave actually start failing, in equally subtle ways.

[1] The conclusion for this particular audience was: Don't try to avoid synchronization primitives, or even invent your own. They were not system level nor high perf code programmers, so they had that luxury.

The drive stalk and the parking brake, sure. But are you explaining to them how to shift into neutral? How to turn on/off the windshield wipers? Headlights? Pairing phones to use as keys? How to use the valet card?

I have a model 3 but I forget this crap all the time. They'll need to provide decent documentation beyond the touch screen (and I'm sure they will).
I’m not part of the category you’re part of - but after learning 6502, Z80 and 68K, when it came time to look at the 80x86 I gave it a hard pass and learned C instead. I kinda assumed x86 would die a natural death. Wrong!

Sadly I have not programmed in assembly since, and I put it down to how ugly the ISA was.

Pretty stupid perhaps, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Russians fell in the trap they laid out for West. It did most damage to them instead.
Most of the chip-heads' deep hatred for x86 comes from the number of pain-points for dealing with its ISA.

In terms of actual raw performance the instruction set is extremely secondary to about 10 other architectural choices.

The reason Apple is getting such performance is because it's caught up with all the cutting edge techniques Intel and AMD use, and a few more, and implemented them inside its core architecture.

Every car manufacturer is a supply chain and and owns their own component production. Ford owns Motorcraft. General Motors owns AC Delco.

Tesla doesn't have nearly the size of the distribution network of any of the oil companies.

The fact is Tesla was trading at 1000x historic earnings, and 161x future earnings, or to put it another way, 10x any other car manufacturer, and this this was before this deal. [0]

This simply doesn't make any sense.

As someone working on quite some complex stuff, be it programming or electronics (including the varity that could kill people if done wrongly) this is my mantra: If you are in a hurry, go slow

You have to know at which pace you won't make mistakes and try hard never to exceed that pace and all will be good. Especially if you work with things where you will go to prison (or die) in the worst case, while the boss who pressured you into going faster will just loose more time.

There is always a maximum tempo at which things can be done reasonably. Know that tempo, never exceed it and never promise someone to be faster than that.

That being said I am still fast compared to other people.

This is a sad story. I have lots of sympathy.

But I can't help but think this is a spiritual problem.

In particular, rehab seems utterly useless. Obviously, it helps them get over the chemical dependency. But it seems to completely neglect the spiritual one.

Unfortunately you cannot install the spiritual tools that lead to non nihilism later in life which is why childhood spirituality and culture are so important. Many parents and our entire culture have crossed Chesterton's fence but have run so far away we can't see the fence in hindsight and can't put two and two together that it prevented us from the cliff.
I remember in people on the internet in early 2005 wishing that Apple would make an iPod phone. Both so they could combine both devices in their pockets, and because the ipod user interface was significantly superior to every single cellphone manufacture.

The the Motorola "iTunes" phone came out in September, and everyone was like "No, I wanted an ipod with cellphone support, not a regular phone with a shitty iTunes app". It seems to only make people want an ipod phone even more.

There were lots of fake "ipod phone" design concepts over the years (and a few leaked patents) until Apple finally announced theirs.

None of the fantasy concepts predicted what we got.

I have an AMD Ryzen 5900X and it is nearly the same in single core and much faster multi-core (12 core). So I don't think it's accurate to say that x86 needs 4x the silicon just it match the M1.
Normally the code should have all the needed memory fences as if running on DEC Alpha, e.g. linux does that, and the compilers omit the unneeded ones.
Talkinf of personal stories, I'd be very happy to have a tool that enforces some verification process over SQL operation ran on production database (you know, to fix that horrible data quality issue on 2 rows that screws the whole business logic in the upper layer that would take a month to fix).

Basically a tool that allow someone to run some SQL on production but, before doing it, request his credentials, then run the sql command in some "--dry-run" mode and if you modify more than 10 rows, then it stops everything. And if it goes on, record the SQL that was run somewhere so we can audit...

I think it's a little unfair to call this a dark pattern. There's no point in selecting product options if you're not going to give them your email (since nothing is actually available yet), and I think "Sign Up & Customize" is a pretty clear description of what's happening.

It's pretty clear (to me, at least) that they're trying to see what people want (and even helpfully give the expected price points for the various options) in order to decide what order to design and build things, and I'm more than happy to help give that information, as well as give them my email address so they can tell me when the thing I want is going to be available.

I guess I just don't see what your objection is to their flow. The only improvement I could see would be waiting to ask for an email address until the end instead of the beginning, but I don't see that as being all that huge. And honestly I see that as sorta worse: it feels dark-patterny to get people to engage with you (in this case, by putting the various hardware option selections first), and then after they've invested the time, require an email address to make that time worthwhile.

I stopped drinking because I realized it kept me from accomplishing things I wanted to accomplish. I think (based on my experience, can't speak for others) it's relatively easy to quit once you know why you want to quit.

I don't much regret my drinking days because I had fun and met many people. But then I realized I want to do other things than just get drunk and get a hangover.

I think, based on my experience again, that AA with its confess your sins and label yourself an alcoholic may help some people. But I think it's best to think what you want to do and accomplish, in life. Then do that. No need to keep on repeating you are an alcoholic. You're no more alcoholic than anybody else I would say. It's just that you have decided to drink and keep on drinking. It's your choice.

> According to the report, concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide were all above levels in the pre-industrial era before 1750, when human activities “started disrupting Earth’s natural equilibrium.”

Nothing going on with temperature or CO2 levels is unusual compared to historical ranges. Global average temperature has varied between 10C and 25C for two billion years, and CO2 levels have varied between about 300-8000ppm.

That is to say, current temperature is not unusually hot or cold, and current CO2 ppm is not unusually high or low (but it is on the low side).

Maintaining the memory model guarantees is what causes the steep cost in performance when using x86 apps on Windows on Arm.

Instead of playing an elaborate finger pointing game, we decided to develop internal tools which put our most dangerous operational activities on rails.

It's amazing how much impact a small console application can have on preventing mistakes. All you really need to do is wrap the danger with "are you sure?" and "enter the exact commit hash..." kinds of prompts. For the super dangerous stuff you can bake in some centralization and approval loops.
This varies. Laws on safely storing fuel frequently mean Hertz doesn't want to take on the risk (a small leak tends to cost millions in fines). Instead they'll pay staff to drive cars to a nearby station, where they'll have a discount.
but the rest of the cost has created jobs! it's the great jobs program of our lifetimes.
