> So what you're saying really is that the 3700X had absolutely no issues whatsoever running that game.

Perhaps to specifications that would satisfy someone else. My requirements are ~120fps and 4k. For those requirements, no existing i5 would cut muster.

> But the CPU "limiting" you when you're comfortably above 60fps

I never used the word "limiting" in my comment. Not sure what you're quoting from. That being said, the 3700X was objectively limiting my framerates. It's not a value judgment, it's just an objective fact that such CPUs are inadequate to satisfy my preferences, and those of many other PC gamers. If you have different preferences, that's fine, but it's not really relevant when I'm talking about my own.
Hm? From when 4chan was just a board with no other boards, it was a _lot_ of stuff. The original board distinction (/a/ and /b/) was made because eventually anime content and "other"/meme content collided in the interests of the board users, so they were separated. It's hard to see the viewpoint in our politically charged time, but the origins of 4chan were just about people interested in anime saying whatever. The frequency of the content often meant that it was mostly just kids with too much free time (as I suspect a lot of *net Fora tend to be). The board changed a lot over the years, but initially it was just a place for anime-oriented talk.
> let owners use deadly force against anybody who is under your car or running away with your converter during night time.

WTF? Why don't you think that should result in a murder charge?
Legal and enforced are also different things (especially when an autocrat is in charge). There are articles on how many poor people lack internet and are completely unbanked. That it is extremely unpopular in El Salvador. https://www.fool.com/the-ascent/amp/cryptocurrency/articles/...
The time between changing the state of the switch and the affect it has on the bulb can not be any faster than the speed of light.

In Derek's example the switch and the bulb are 1 meter away from each other and therefore the time is 1/c seconds, i.e the time light takes to travel 1 meter.

The topic is definitely a little confusion, but there are no GR violations.
Most cars have a powertrain warranty that exceeds the bumper to bumper warranty, and the cat is considered to be part of the powertrain. Typically this is 10 years for unlimited mileage. If your car had its converter stolen and it’s less than 10 years old, it’s worth talking to the dealership. If the dealer won’t honor it, raise it to the automaker’s head office.

That’s part of the reason why this crime is popular. Between warranty and insurance claims, it’s largely victimless.
The first time I read this I thought you were a seller (due to your references to hypothetical return fees to be paid by sellers). After reading through the comments it seems that this is not the case —- you are a regular customer, you purchased some items, then the order was cancelled. Is that correct?

If so, is that really such a big deal? Aren’t you making a mountain out of a molehill?
I don't think that explanation is correct. The average temperature of a year is just a specific way to take a measurement. Comparing it to an average of averages over several years is then the same as comparing a measurement to an average of measurements.

That the climate should never see averages changing seems obviously false. There clearly are cycles that last longer than a year, for example, as several ice ages came and went before industrialization. El Nino take phases last between two and seven years.

I think this is badly oversimplified and is maybe showing your own bias a bit -- though I'm probably going to struggle to address it without showing mine in turn (and maybe it's just mine reading it in your comment).

Your "Blue wilderness restrictions", writ large, are exactly based on a recognition that

> nature is a source of raw materials to produce food, metals, power, etc.

I think the policy differences arise downstream from that. Questions like, how to handle competing resource needs; how to manage current or future scarcity; and ultimately some disagreement about whether these questions even need to be asked (i.e. is scarcity of X actually a problem?)
-Yes, it was basically my country's equivalent of this - you're being vetted (basically no convictions; no associating), are being briefed on what not to discuss with whoever you end up visiting, then you get scheduled visits at regular intervals.

Once the inmate is released, you're not supposed to stay in touch - though in the small town I lived in at the time, you were bound to bump into each other on the street every now and then; when we did, the rule was that the former inmate initiated contact if he'd like to have a coffee or just say hi - after all, it could quickly become awkward if I greeted someone and their company asked where we'd met, for instance.

Most interesting, if nothing else I came to realise that just about anyone could end up doing something which landed them in prison.

(Plus, inmates make for excellent conversation partners - after all, they have all the time in the world to ponder all sorts of things.)
Yes. If people talk enough they can’t help but share all the relevant details if you know enough about creating medium or large sized systems. Also I ask questions for stories about troubleshooting bugs, and when to log, some story when logs And I would rather hire someone that iterates well over the weeks or months time frame than can solve something quickly.

For newbies, it’s harder.
Ah I see, that's a good method of writing off evidence arbitrarily!

If we cannot agree that objective observations can be made and shared from the perspective of a human, then it's obvious that you will just write off everything after that point and this conversation is meaningless. This agreement is generally implicit when discussing the results of research.
There is no present way, (still - after 50 years of talking about this) to place a value on the view, waterfront, water quality, etc.

It's been a lot of years since I took the class, but those things can be valued. One of the things I did in my case study of Suisun Marsh was quantified how much the marsh cleans up the water and what it would cost if humans did it with a water treatment plant.

Suisun Marsh is also a historic birding area and the rails go through there for that reason. It brought tourism.

You can place dollar values on tourism, water quality and other things. It doesn't get done a lot but can be done.

A lot of places with such assets are small town or rural. Planning jobs tend to pay better in the big city so your best talent tends to end up designing cities and planners often hate their jobs because they don't get to do what they wanted to do.

Planning something good for people and the environment that makes economic sense and gets buy in from enough pertinent stakeholders is hard. So, all too often, "money talks" instead.
This is a game changer for microservices. We constantly struggle with performance and debuggability of services. This tool is clearly removing the noise from the signal in Jaeger traces. Kudos!

Maybe. Maybe not. From what I understand, experience shows that when conceptualizing knowledge in this domain, at some point you may run into the need for a MOP, which Julia to my knowledge doesn't have.
No they picked a certain time frame and compare to the average temperature of that time frame. Nothing more, nothing less. I think the reference time frame is some 20 year period in the end of 20th century, but not sure if I remember it correctly.
It's only paranoia if they aren't judging you.
I don't but if one company can then I would imagine others with similar resources could as well. Yet some rich, tech savvy companies still have poor scores.
The coffee roasting sub /r/roasting occasionally has people come in to discuss how to insult their friends better. People seem pretty nice about it, though, which must be annoying.
> Agriculture is invented and pretty advanced and yet there are a lot of humans suffering from hunger.

Perhaps we could invent a new thing to solve that too? Improvements to crop technology, breeding, farming methods continue to happen every year. Inventions like the Internet bring information to people in rural areas who might not otherwise have had access to it. Why can't we solve all these things with technology?

> Sometimes the problem isn't knowing how to do something, but getting people to do it, to give you money for it, to use it in a responsible way, teaching them, logistical issues...

But can't those things all be solved by inventing something? Let's say you wanted to teach someone something, perhaps even without their knowledge or against their will? Could someone not invent a thing or process for doing that?

It seems anything humans invent is just one more tool we accumulate as a society. Once it was language, then writing, then mass communication, now perhaps it'll be a secure economy.
No, it isn’t. The catalytic converter is part of the emissions system, which is not covered by powertrain warranty, full stop. The US federal emissions warranty exists precisely because manufacturers refused to cover it under their powertrain warranties. Any who do are an exception.

Here’s how you know the distinction: if the catalytic converter fails outright, your engine can’t breathe and loses performance. Your engine doesn’t stop (in most circumstances). Boom, not powertrain, and not covered under powertrain warranty.

If this is different elsewhere, it’s different elsewhere, but what you just said is plainly false in the United States. You really should understand that before escalating to an automaker because in this case, you would not have been grounded in facts and I can’t see that call going well at all.
You bought into Apple marketing. Speed of signal in copper ~20cm per 1ns. 5-7cm of extra track length to a slot would not hurt anything.
If you use AWS why would you use Namecheap instead of Route53?
Even if .com are 4$ cheaper on Namecheap per year. if you have one or two domains, I would prefer simplicity of integration with AWS over small savings.

The range of "normal" is massive for things like cars and laptops.

That's the US data which is hopelessly corrupted by politics; the CDC simply hasn't been reporting honest statistics about vaccines from the start.

In the UK where the health authorities break down by age and vaxx status with what seems to be reasonably accurate reporting, the vaccinated per capita rate is ~2x the unvaccinated rate and nobody knows why.
So in order to stop protesters, all the police would have to do is not provide a venue (not block off the road). "Go ahead and march without police support if you want, while people will legally slaughter the lot of you with their cars."
I know there is a lot of controversy and thoughts around the Artemis program/SLS but I personally am extremely excited for it all. I missed all of the Apollo missions and while there was some exciting things going on the last 10 years, the next 10 look like they will be absolutely thrilling.

I cant wait to see the SLS launch and the moon missions come along. Launches from private companies (SpaceX, RKLB, Astra, etc) are also exciting, and I cant wait to see the options for rocket launches increase over the next few years.
Not just Noctua! Heat pipes are an amazing technology and there are a bunch of companies that have made really exciting thermal management products with them.
Yeah, that's not really the interesting part. It's clever because if you're a developer editing source files, the Git index is relatively up-to-date. So, as the author says, why not take advantage of it?
well the same for techemporer benchmarks.
sorry but some of that stuff is as shady as the benchmarksgame. I really don't get it, why people don't create 100% benchmarks instead of specialized ones.
I recall UMSDOS being a performance nightmare.

A 486DX2-80 paired with a much newer circa-1997 3GB IDE hard disc on a VL-Bus controller should have been CPU-bound. UMSDOS made it disk-bound.

Its most solid use case was probably "mount a shared prtition and still have some Unix filename support".
I'm the opposite. Break out a structured game in a party setting, and I'll need a nap ASAP. Let everyone amorphously mingle, and I can last for hours.
Of course, and I myself play at 144Hz and would probably do the same. I think I just took an issue with the statement that most gamers are CPU limited nowadays - and while in strictly technical sense that's true, I don't think that a few years old CPU being able to run games at solid 60fps+ is a problem in any sense. Again, it's not like it physically can't run the game, it just doesn't run it "well enough" for some people.
What are the logisitcs for majorCorp? Eat the cost of shipping the item they didn't authorize to send to them in the first place? It's not their fault user did wrong thing. To them, they are still out 2 items. According to the terms of the return, if you don't follow the terms, you eat the cost of both items. The terms were not followed to the point that it will cost seller even more money to return the unqualified item. Maybe a bit rambly mambly, but hopefully you can at least see the situation from a neutral point of view.
Also, I can't believe I didn't mention this already:

Reflection in .NET lets you dynamically invoke anything declared internal or private as well. I think it goes without saying that your code can be broken in the future if you do this.
They use the term anomaly strictly in a technical sense: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperature_anomaly

It means the difference to the average of a certain time frame. Whether it was caused by human activity is a different question. That is why I call it misleading. They certainly want to imply humans caused it, but at the point where they show the chart they haven't really shown it. That requires considering other aspects.

It's also a HUGE political thing in the US. GOP candidates make lots of commercials with themselves killing wolves, because it is such a visceral wedge issue between left/right. I recall VP Candidate Sara Palin went on a helicopter wolf-shooting trip for a photo op in 2008. In the US it is considered masculine to kill wolves and the GOP likes that, and it also satisfies another voting block: ranchers who complain about their livelihoods being lost to too many predators. It's quite amazing to see this wedge issue in action, because it involves watching animals die for political points.
Deep Work in an Environment of Distractions
I lean on my default mode network to find solutions and scrutinise my ideas.

This means that I avoid committing to important decisions until I've at least had a chance to sleep on them. The next day I normally have a lot more clarity and confidence in the decision when it's right, or what is wrong when it isn't.

I also don't stress if I can't find the answer to a problem. I try to keep the problem at the front of my mind but don't pressure myself to activally solve it. Very often, this results in what feels like an epiphiny, a shower thought, or the answer will come to me in a dream. Activally working to find those solutions would be difficult and success would be hit and miss, it's low stress and gives me space to work on something else in the meantime.

Well, in America, children are just leverage to extract money from parents: healthcare, kindergartens, universities, all of them try to grab as much money as they can. Insufficient birthrate will be covered by immigration, until one day, just like in Rome, immigrants outnumber the natives and tell them to disappear.

I got run times from the simplest single-threaded directory walk that are only 1.8x slower than git ls-files. (Min time of 10 runs with the git repo housed by /dev/shm on Linux 5.15.)

The "simple" code is in https://github.com/c-blake/cligen/blob/master/cligen/dents.n... (just `dents find` does not require the special kernel batch system call module to be fast. That kernel module is more about statx batching but IO uring can also do that these days. For those unfamiliar with Nim, it's a high productivity, high performance systems language.)

I believe that GNU find is slow because it is specifically written to allow arbitrary filesystem depth as opposed to "open file descriptor limit-limited depth". (I personally consider this over-/mis-engineered from days of bygone systems with default ulimits of, say, only 64 open fd's. There should at least be a "fast mode" since let's be real - file hierarchies deeper than 256..1024 levels, while possible, are rare and one should optimize for the common case or at least allow manual instruction that this case prevails. AFAIK there is no such "fast mode". Maybe on some BSD?)

Meanwhile, I think the Rust fd is slow because of (probably counterproductive) multi-threading (at least it does 11,000 calls to futex).
This is actually an incredibly frustrating thing -- when doing disk i/o, the process goes into an uninterruptible sleep state[0].

So if your shell is doing some tab completion that goes into an uninterruptible sleep, there's no escape sequence you can send it to cancel that operation.

Where I've seen this be the most vexing is in AWS if an EBS volume dies (surprisingly more frequent of an occurrence than you'd think!). It effectively prevents the machine from cleanly shutting down, and you wind up having to wait for the instance to be forcefully terminated.

I mean people trying to show or prove the effects of climate change. Whether you believe in it or not, there supposedly are specialists working in that area. At least that is usually the argument, that there are experts who worked it all out whom we should listen to. So I think those can be called "climate change circles".

In Australia we had a similar game called Goldfields. Every kid loved it and playing it is one of my most fond memories of primary school. A fantastic way to teach history and economics at the same time.

There's certainly practical issues, but not every call is stuck with the GSM codec anymore. G.722.2 (aka HD Voice) may be better than GSM at carrying modem noises (or it may not be).

Of course, way back when, when mobile carriers had modem banks for outgoing calls, that worked a whole lot better.
+1 for avoiding SendGrid. We haven't had this problem at work. But we have persistently hit a bug where if you send them two API requests at the same time they will return a spurious 403 error for one of them. They seem unwilling to fix it (reports go back years). We currently have a retry with random timeout configured in our system to compensate for it.

I've previously had good experiences with SparkPost.

It has always disturbed me that magician’s names of power in books are far too short: I presume there is more encoding than just the letters - the intonation perhaps contains a lot of entropy. Otherwise a name like Ged could be brute forced (or would that make a good short fantasy story?)

> I really think the future is private enclaves, closed forums, etc. with strict rules to try to keep out not just trolls and idiots but more importantly bots. We are living in the twilight of the open Internet, at least as a medium of any kind of meaningful communication. All that will be left on the “clearnet” is a social media influencer hustle culture driven hellscape where half the participants are bots anyway.

I think we're already starting to see this. Mastodon, Gemini, Discourse, forums, resurging interests in NNTP, FidoNet, etc. Even the public generally prefers group chats, Discords, TikTok, Snapchat, or to some extent IG because they're more private than FB or Twitter. I think creating a "global village" was interesting and empowering for most of humanity as a new thing that humans were capable of doing, but we all quickly realized that you can put a million people in a room together, but they won't have much to talk about together.

I have no doubt that private communities are going to be the future.

First, the catalytic convertor is not a part of the powertrain. Second, these warranties do not cover theft. No manufacturer warantee covers theft, it covers component failure.
