Using AVX 512 is not suitable for programs that takes very small time to run. There is a penalty in the ms range to "warm up" the CPU (it is more a cool down, actually).

As OP stated, the limiting factor is on the memory access. That's why he kept saying 64B every four cycles.

But OP likely didn't use because most CPU lacks support for AVX512.

The new Intel CPU introduced many changes for the frontend. This will likely improve the speed.

There might also be possible to try make the CPU operate at higher clockspeed.

Code looks a bit long. Not sure if the unrolling actually helps.

EDIT: Just look at the agner microarchitecture doc. Ice Lake and Tiger Lake can do 64 bytes/cycle.

In theory, it can run 4x faster (on bare metal, maybe).
Meta has 30x? 100x?, 300x? the resources of Valve. I'm not routing for Meta but it seems unlikely Valve can out do Meta.

GPU memory is an order of magnitude higher bandwidth than RAM, so that would seem to me to be the way to go to beat this. The output wouldn’t be accessible from CPU without a big slowdown though.

This benchmark makes no sense. I was looking for some reference points and found forum topic[1] with few PC benchmark results and they are `strange`. Only RTX 3090 benchmark result is around 12k in raster, while RTX 3080's result is 13k. And there are 2060's that run like 1050Ti(both giving result around 5k). And 1660 Super that outputs 10k with 3070 and 2070 giving similar results. There's something seriously wrong with this benchmark.

I skimmed through the blog post, and it seems to me that they are not claiming they invented something new, just that they are adding this to Swift language.

(Distributed) actor model is nothing new, but I definitely wouldn't classify it as something that's common in other languages. To my knowledge Erlang/OTP is the only mainstream language where this is part of the standard library.

There are implementations for other languages, such as Akka for Java/Scala and Orleans for dotnet, but most languages (sadly) don't have a battle-tested implementation of this.
My impression after being around homeless for many years, is that the key point that must always be understood is that chronically homeless are incapable of managing their own affairs, and therefore need someone else to manage those affairs for them. That could be institutionalization. It could be family or church. In the worst case it could be prison. But all of the above is better than leaving them on the street.

Now everything else follows. We can ask -- why can't they managing their own affairs? If it's mental illness, then is it possible to treat that illness, and get them to a situation where they can manage their affairs? Same for drugs/alcohol, and other things. But this has to be the cornerstone: they lose autonomy and some civil rights until they can demonstrate that they are able to function as independent responsible adults that do not perform antisocial behavior in urban environments. The urban environment must be protected, and the homeless should not be left alone in the streets.

The problem is that we don't have either a legal system or a care system setup (think halfway houses) for that kind of clientele. And some of those halfway houses will require bars on the windows, because for some of the hardcore population, they will refuse the care process. But it must be mandatory, until they demonstrate that they can provide for their own needs and manage their life in a harmonious way with the rest of the urban population.

When I was last in SF, I was having a coffee on Columbus in North beach and saw a homeless man with no pants but a dirty blanket run into the middle of Columbus avenue and take a big dump on the street. Then he started waving his arms and screaming at the cars that were trying to get by him. As long as San Francisco tolerates that behavior and gives that person an option to refuse treatment, then things will just continue to get worse. And high rental prices have nothing to do with it -- there is simply no rent that a person like that could afford to pay, nor would there be any apartment that would accept them.
Zuck said nothing changes brand wise - but Oculus name is dead and he did actually hide that fact. But in the grand scheme of things Oculus is pretty unknown, so that was probably part of the consideration to let it go quietly.

that is true but there is regulation that has been set to protect that type of offshoring. realistically though, we will get to a point of one of the goals of capitalism, and that is equilibrium. whatever that looks like, i am an optimistic, (some would view it as pessimistic), but work or work as which we know it will cease to be relevant in a post human production society. nearly 8 billion people connected is new, i know we are all not connected yet, but to assume or pretend that will never happen is only operating at half consciousness and the experience it has to offer. i believe in work, it will exist for awhile but our interpretation of work will at some point change.
It's true an LISW or similar wouldn't make the same rated as a PhD or an MD... but between the same "tier" of education in the provider, rates are surprisingly more comparable.

Insurers aren't more generous - they have negotiated rates. They're never paying 100% of what's charged. Some providers are better at negotiating, or have more leverage, than others.

I can agree with verbosity. But VHDL has an extremely strong type system, which comes from its ADA heritage. It’s semantics are also very consistent per my recollection, but it’s been a while.

Verilog definitely has looser numeric typing. It tripped up a friend of mine yesterday. I’ve been doing this stuff forever so I don’t think about it much, and I’m grateful for the simplified math it affords.

Disagree on IDE support because vscode support for SV at least is pretty nice. And sigasi is still doing well. But I’m old school I guess and prefer vim/nvim. I actually do a hybrid thing where I’ll use nvim in the vscode terminal to do some quick edits for something not In the workspace every now and then.

SystemVerilog smoothed over some of the ugliness of verilog, but then bolted on at least three other languages into one with the semantic inconsistencies you mention. Particularly No idea what the rational was there, if any.

But I never found it to be a significant barrier to learning. I’ve done experiments with writing an HDL in Clojure that would compile to SV, and it was fun, but it just created a new set of problems. Much better to work in a standardized language warts and all.
Anecdotal, but the shittiest code I come across as a freelancer has been from overseas Indian "engineers."
All I'll say is that it would be genuinely unprecedented if they could make that work. The M1 is impressive, but it's family of CPUs were a technical inevitability. ARM has notorious scaling issues, so I'm greatly interested to see if they bruteforce it or go a more tactical route.
I didn't see in the article any evidence for this shrinkage correlating with intelligence. It seems plausible that the initial adaptation is just raw, inefficient fast growth (ie, evolution solving intelligence the simplest possible way through raw unorganized volume), and the subsequent shrinkage is accompanied by internal structural improvements and optimization. In other words, like we often do in engineering, first we just throw more more hardware at it to fulfill demands, and then as we optimize algorithmic efficiency the extra hardware becomes unnecessary again.
It is possible to instrument the code to see how much overhead those branchs add.
The W6900X/6900XT is basically tied with the 3090 as the fastest consumer GPU. A $10,000 A100 is faster but I don't think it even has any monitor outputs.
> I do think the global best engineers are about to get a big raise though.

It really does feel like there is a gigantic competency bubble that is about to pop.

The amount of people who are willing to learn the hard systems and businesses is dwindling by the day. You think its difficult to find airline pilots and truckers? Try to find a developer with both the domain knowledge and technical skills to fix a custom piece of code in a community bank's core system that was written in 1994. Oh, and we need it fixed before close of business or our fedwire files are going to be totally fucked...

The amount of money they will have to offer to capture the appropriate talent to keep their businesses running is going to become astronomical. The executives sometimes try to take a quick path out of this hell and usually wind up with 1 additional reason they have to stay. The most common mistake is attempting a full vertical swap-out, followed by paying some firm to explain that your shit sucks by way of installing some middleware in your infrastructure and telling you things you already know.

I’m just as surprised as you, my comment is dumb. But him talking about deeper engagement with the brand and their products doing more physical tracking just had me very irritated.

It’s dumb, I’m dumb, but I don’t have any bigger problems so it really irked me
I'm not the one making the claim; it's not on me to provide evidence.

Conceding your analysis of my particular situation, "not everyone is like me" is a far cry from "nobody is like me." If this condition has high incidence, and even a fraction of people were like me, it would be much more common knowledge than it seems to be given the quality and volume of evidence available.

No. I looked at the data, and reported it accurately. Drug use went up overall, and if you disregard drop in heroin use (though only among young people, it also went up among those 35+), use increased significantly. Drop in heroin use among youth has offset the growth in use of other drugs.

> The parents birth and raise the kids to make those choices--this isn't a difficult concept to understand.

It's still the kids' choice and the kids' labor. They deserve the credit for doing the work, and receive that credit through their wages. Society doesn't present bad (or merely unfortunate) parents with a bill when they raise kids who end up being a burden; the flip side of that is that they don't get a prize when their kids turn out to be over-achievers.

Most kids, over the course of their lifetimes, will end up consuming about as much as they produce, which means bringing them into society is not some grand favor to the human race on the part of the parents. Unfortunately, the rare cases where the balance strongly favors production over consumption (i.e. gaining wealth) tend to invite more suspicion than appreciation.

> That's an interesting perspective that is completely divorced from the context of this conversation--it's entirely irrelevant and non-responsive to anything, in fact.

The only thing "completely divorced from the context of this conversation" is this nonsense I just quoted. You claimed that parents subsidize the lives of single people by having and raising kids who then go on to produce things for single people. I responded, completely relevantly and on-topic, by pointing out that considering the fruits of the kids' labor to be a subsidy paid by their parents presumes that the parents own their kids and the fruits of their kids' labor, a situation most commonly known as "slavery". If they don't own the labor (and they do not—it's the kids' labor, not theirs) then they aren't subsidizing anything. Their efforts as parents are a gift to their children alone, not to society.

> Is it really a mystery as to why canines tilt their heads when spoken to?

Yes, it is. "Complete concentration" or shifting ears this way and that way to better assess where sound comes from? I do something similar, when trying to localize the source of some odd sound, though I do more rotations around the vertical axis, and less around a horizontal ones. But humans more visually inclined species, so we mostly rely on eyes when searching for a source of a sound (it may go funny, when you misattributed sound, and then corrected a mistake, it feels like the sound instantly relocated from one place to the other).

Or maybe doggie tilting its head is trying to see whould your face look better if tilted?

Or it signals about its concentration on sounds, so other members of the pack kept quiet?

Or (a hypothesis attributed to a cat in some fictional book) doggie tries to hide how stupid it is? I like this one, because my dog acts this way, when I talk to it, whining on the perils of a working man in an inegalitarian society.
Sorry, maybe too snarkily expressed... My point was, why make such a complicated system? Just give the benefit to everyone and raise taxes on higher earners. Universal benefits are more durable. Sure, some well off people would get an undeserved benefit, however there's way fewer of them in number.
The article talks about potential employees ghosting hiring managers, but the last anecdote in the article screams poor and abusive working conditions.

https://youtu.be/8zJ2aWglimU
Thank you!

I hadn't expected anyone would answer my comment, much less that anyone would provide a concrete reference point that was actually within my experience. I have used MDMA and experienced the high you're describing. For reference, I was high enough that I felt it certainly would not have been a good idea to try driving my car anywhere, but not so high that I felt taking my dog for a walk around the block would have been at all risky.

I found it pleasant, and wished it would last longer, but I don't think it's anything I'd go for if i were only 10% as intense and came with all the twitchy/tweaker effects. The jaw clenching I got from MDMA was more than enough of that.

But, as far as this:

> See you're amphetamine tolerant. Give your 20mg dose to an amphetamine naive individual, and they will get the euphoria for the first couple days at least of taking it. The euphoria quickly fades, though.

When I said "never," I meant "never." I didn't experience it the first time I took amphetamine, the second time, or this morning.

I have experienced some mild euphoria from prescribed dosages of opioids in the past, and, as I mentioned, I've experienced the high of MDMA, so, I think I have some sort of reference point here, although I'm sure they're very different highs.

Maybe it's because the starting dosages my doctors had me trying out initially were very small. Maybe it's because that initial dosage was 10-15 years ago, and I don't really remember it well (which would imply it wasn't very memorable). Or, maybe I did experience some euphoria, but just couldn't classify it as such because of my limited drug experience thus far.

In any case, as you said, I am not amphetamine-naive anymore and certainly don't get high off my medication at prescribed dosages, or even somewhat higher than prescribed dosages.

Again, thank you for helping me understand a bit of the appeal of smoking meth, without actually smoking meth. :-)
> domestic management to realize where the cost savings could come from

Management has been looking at off-shoring whatever they can for the past decades already. Having a bigger pool of talent willing to work remotely is a boon, but most of the new influx is not from lower level countries (they already were 99% ok with full remote), and more from places with high level salaries.

Management will find cheaper people, but only marginally, and not that different from the people they already had. Except most of the people they will find will be the ones playing the full-remote "dangerous game" you warn about

> we're working on making it so you can log into Quest with an account other than your personal Facebook account

I mean... Quest had this ability before. And Facebook took it away. And now they want us to clap for them when they say they're kind of bringing it back, at some point in the future, in some kind of limited capacity for work accounts?

Call me skeptical.

I'm not really aware of any platform (including Quest) where I would say that Facebook is doing a good job of supporting consumer choice, and I've read plenty of leaked internal communications from the company that suggests they're internally pretty hostile to the idea (Mark included).

Maybe they've turned over a new leaf, but if Mark wants us to all give him the benefit of the doubt that a metaverse is going to be different, he could start by showing this commitment with... any of their current products, really.

There's a lot of talk here about how Facebook is going to be moving into the bold new world of user agency and privacy and choice, and not much acknowledgement that Facebook is responsible for making these platforms what they are today. I don't like Mark's subtle insinuation that Facebook is doing something new or bold by getting rid of restrictions on Oculus that he created. Especially when he hasn't actually fixed the problem, he's just vaguely assured people that the problem might get fixed a year from now, maybe.

He wants credit for swinging in a new direction, and he hasn't actually swung in that direction. Well, prove it, Mark. Prove it with your existing products before you start bragging about how good your next product will be.
