bugfix: the 240V to the voltage between a phase and ground

This is possible, but more likely is a phase-to-phase in a delta configured transformer. In that case there is no ground delivered to the distribution panel, just two phases (or three).
These are very different things.

> they simply have to pay (slightly) more than other TSMC customers

I'd argue that they need to pay significantly more than other customer in order to get such preferential treatment.

In a short-sighted view of things, you only need to pay slightly more. If AMD is willing to pay $1 and Apple is willing to pay $1.01, you make more profit selling to Apple. However, as this article shows, you might end up losing the other business if you offer Apple such preferential treatment. If Apple isn't going to use all of your capacity year-round, you don't want to alienate the other companies whose orders you rely on.

I think Apple likely has to pay a significant premium for getting access to the latest and greatest to the detriment of competitors. It's not in TSMC's interests to become too dependent on Apple. If AMD and Qualcomm mutiny and their orders start boosting Samsung's foundries with more money for R&D, TSMC could find itself 1) competing against a better-funded Samsung foundry; 2) with one customer that now has leverage over TSMC and getting paid less.

If AMD and Qualcomm move all their orders to Samsung, it provides Samsung with the money to reinvest in its chip business. If they're able to make long-term commitments to Samsung, that's bad for TSMC since it will allow Samsung to invest knowing it will make a profit (just as TSMC has been able to do that with Apple's commitments).

Likewise, if the two other giant chip design companies move to Samsung exclusively, that leaves TSMC in a tough negotiating position with Apple. Before, Apple would have to compete against AMD and Qualcomm for capacity. Now if AMD and Qualcomm have made long-term commitments to Samsung, TSMC becomes really reliant on Apple and Apple will know that TSMC has capacity they can't sell elsewhere. Sure, MediaTek and others exist, but it swings the power away from TSMC and toward Apple. Let's say that Apple was using 40% of TSMC's capacity, AMD 25%, Qualcomm 25%, and MediaTek 10%. Now AMD and Qualcomm make long-term commitments to Samsung. Apple knows that TSMC's orders have dropped 50% and that gives Apple a lot of power.

Giving Apple the best to the detriment of AMD, Qualcomm, and others is a risky play for TSMC. They'll definitely want to be getting very well compensated for it, not merely slightly more. They'll want to make sure that what Apple is offering is enough to offset the substantial risk of angering competing chip design companies who might look for fabs elsewhere.
Yes, some ops are cruft, in which case new company could buy old company brand.

The other problem is distribution.

These things are about channel power, which is >50% of the story on both sides: manufacturing, distribution, sales, etc..

'The Product' is actually less important than the system in place that makes all of this work, at least at scale.

Ideally, this would be a subdivision of a 'well run company' with operational resources and distribution power.

Every time there is a story that criticizes China's Communist Party there is a flood of troll-like comments here in Hacker News. Lot of "What about X" comments and just general trolling and uncivil behavior.

As a non-Chinese I never could understand the relationship of CCP, Chinese nationals and Chinese immigrants in the US and West. To me, it seems very hyocritcal to live in the Western societies and be very pro-CCP. I have interacted with many Chinese immigrants that defend CCP at any cost. I'm very confused about it.

Sounds like you are confirming that there was a time before the split, where it was more common for single person to run front-end and back-end, makes sense! I remember writing PHP at some point and running my own server and it wouldn't have crossed my mind to split the back-end work with someone else. I mean, at times a colleague would do the database, etc. so there was definitely specialization even back then, but it wasn't an explicit front-end vs back-end since we all had the skills to mess around with both.

However, I'm more interested to reconstruct how/when we started splitting into front-end / back-end roles explicitly. Any thoughts there?
AFAIK that will be remedied in an upcoming release.
Exactly. From my experience Calendly works 99% of time, and remaining 1% is where it is better to handle it personally than through PA.
>To me, the threshold of cringing is when web forms are laggy.

Same here that was what ticked me. I was reading up HN threads I saved and the Remix framework was one of them. People were cheering for a well design, animated and smooth webpage. Because most of the other similar design tends to Jank and not smooth. We are coming to 2022, rendering a webpage on modern CPU with GPU accelerated browser should be trivial. And yet that web page was, true to most comments and my experience, an outliner.

A lot of people continue to say those latency doesn't matter. It does. I am picky, I hate latency. I am latency sensitive. I can only wish some day ( again may be VR or Metaverse ) we could kick start latency computing. Or Real Time computing.

"To make Metaverse, we need Real Time Computing" seems like a good message to VC and consumer market :)
Thoth is the name of an Egyptian god, not really an English word.
It's the English spelling of the Greek name for an Egyptian god: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thoth

The actual Egyptian pronunciation, as best as we can reconstruct it, uses sounds that didn't exist in either ancient Greek or even Coptic, and don't quite exist in modern English either. I think you'd be entirely justified using another sound if your language doesn't have English "th".

Is the singularity when God returns to make his presence known to man, or when we discover God by scientific means ?
I used to browse lowendbox which occasionally has good deals from smaller companies who've been around for at least a few years but there's always a risk one day they'll sell, shut down operations or worse just disappear. However, if budget is your number one priority, you can get a years VPS hosting for low double digit dollars a year.

Nowadays a host personal projects on scaleway and netcup (EU based). I've been with the first for a could of years and the second for 6 months now, good service from both.

If you're mainly hosting static* or cacheable content, you may even get by with a raspberry pi running behind cloudflare's free plan with cache enabled. If you don't mind all traffic to your site being served by such a third party of course.

* If you only have static content, GitHub pages can be considered too.
Samsung 7nm probably doesn't have the yields to make it worth it yet.
I think you need to define singularity here. If it works historically like a black hole -

Basically a black hole is not defined for the external observer by the singularity, but by the radius under which the escape velocity exceeds speed of light. External universe observes a steepening gravitational force, and then an unpiercable black wall.

If you look at human history, lots of things have been accelerating since the dawn of industrialization (and after scientists and mathematicians figured out a way of existence where instead of hiding their discoveries they flaunt them).

Is the jaquard loom the first sign of impending computational nirvana? From historical perspective a hundred years is a really brief time so if I wanted to go Neal Stephenson -witty I would say yes, that was the first sign and the founding of the royal society another.

It depends how far from the event horizon you want the signs to be and are we on a historical gradient towards it - which we probably wont observe since a) it's in the future b) it's an event horizon so it will completely surprise us.

All of the above was more or less tongue in cheek.
The West hasn’t censored Assange, though. Throughout he has been free to say whatever he wants to say whenever he wants to say it. Him disappearing from collective consciousness says more about the speed of news cycles these days than anything about censorship, IMO.

(7) was driven by the invention of patent law. Expressly royal monopolies on inventing stuff.

(23) is because it's not independent random events. First, Plato literally taught Aristotle and was taught by Socrates. Second, Athens was the capital of an empire (okay, technically a league) so of course the best and brightest descended on Athens.

So, literally like Hollywood attracting actors or SV attracting startups, it's a self-perpetuating cycle.

Constexpr Change

> […] I find it really hard to read anything because of the math notations and zero explanation of it in the context.

I suggest finding contexts first, and exploring math within those contexts. Different subfields have their own conventions and notation.

For example, you might be working in category theory, and see an arrow labeled “π”. When I see that, I think, “Ah, that’s probably a projection! That’s what π stands for!”

Or you might be in number theory, and see something like π(x). When I see that, I think, “Ah, that’s the prime number counting function! That’s what π stands for, ‘prime’!”

Or you might be in statistics, and see 1/2√π e^(-1/2 x^2). When I see that, I think, “Ah, that’s the number π! It’s about 3.14”

Or you might see a big ∏ which stands for “product”.

The fact that such a common symbol, π, stands for four different things in four different contexts can be a bit confusing. So if you want to learn mathematical notation, pick a context that you want to study (like linear algebra), and look for accessible books and videos in that subfield. The trick is finding stuff that is advanced enough that you’re getting challenged, but not so advanced that it’s incomprehensible. A bit of a razor’s edge sometimes, which is unfortunate.
I have this idea that, unless it is very rapid like in Greg Bear’s Blood music, it isn’t going to be very noticeable if you are on the inside if the change. You may notice the change, but just be caught up with it and think it is relatively normal.

I don't want to detract from the main story, because we need to call this out regardless of the source nation, but it really does grind my gears the way that Western politicians use this kind of thing to strengthen the anti-Chinese FUD, when there are similar issues at home they could actually do something about, but don't (or worse, even support it - usually "because terrorists, paedos, foreigners etc").
Honestly when very smart people who are based in reality start talking about it , some names of people who have a pretty general understanding of the many pieces of the puzzle (both tech wise and people wise) necessary to propel us to the singularity :

Larry&sergey

Plus you have the guys who do something else entirely for a living but are so G-loaded that won’t be able to ignore the singularly and in fact will participate…again some names:

Elon musk

I find it amazing how common it is for programmers to not be touch typists (I mean typing without looking at the keys). Like, isn't that something you pick up by the sheer amount of keyboard time?
It's commendable that he tried adding more notes but on the whole I don't find it more useful to English speakers than the version I linked. The version you linked also has some things I disagree with:

I disagree with note 4, claiming that that paragraph is her evidence for non-consensual relationship. My reading of that paragraph (about 10 years ago, the previous time she had an affair) is that that was consensual, or at least not unconsensual. My reading is that at the time she met him for the 2nd time, she was still heartbroken at him for having broken up 10 years ago.

The translation you linked to also misses an important note on the phrase "逼我和你发生关系". Presumably the "rape allegation" narrative is based on this phrase. The problem however is that 逼 could mean either “to pressure [to have sex]” or “to force [to have sex]”; its meaning is ambiguous. It could be something like "my parents forced me to become doctor" (they didn't literally force, they nagged until you agree).

There is no doubt that Zhao is a manipulative jerk and that he engaged in unacceptable questionable acts. But given the ambiguity of this phrase, plus the fact that the rest of the text is not focused on that single even, makes some wonder whether this is even a rape allegation at all. The rest of the text say things like "I reopened my love for you", "we are so compatible", "we could talk endlessly". Some believe that this is more like her venting that he played with her feelings and then dumped her.
It is remarkable but it shouldn’t be surprising. As the article says, the WTA is a women’s sports association and arguably the most successful one in the world. If the WTA caved to pressure from China then they would rightly be vilified in the west for betraying women. There is no way they could ever do that and get away with it!
If we’re going to talk about erasure, one big difference is that there are many people like you in the West who do draw those comparisons publicly on the internet and they remain accessible and even popular online.
Properly cached, a single core on a low end VPS should be able to carry some serious weight.

But yeah, I agree. This is static content, and should be hosted on any of the gazillion free tier CDNs. But then you don’t get that warm fuzzy feeling of watching the rPi behind your couch melt into the floor.
I'm having a very hard time taking this seriously since its a extremely long article about a simple fully managed 2 day hiking trip to go 18 miles, which any healthy adult should be able to do in 1 day with a full pack.

At first, I was willing to give the writer the benefit of the doubt, but when I realized that the writer was getting Wood/Food/Water dropoffs regularly, is when I realized this thing is definitely for sheltered rich people.

Use whatever framework you like; the point is PHP leaves it largely up to them.

Because the media doesn't just report on her safety, it also reports on what she said? And how they interpret what she said has significant impact on how people think what happened?
Much more than most other languages, PHP is purpose-built for serving web requests.

For example, PHP could get along without async/await and promises in a lot of situations, because threading was effectively subcontracted to the underlying web-server. You could just treat, say, a curl call as blocking-- resulting in a simpler code flow-- knowing that wouldn't lock your entire web server.
"Early"?

1) Mass production is archived

2) Computers are invented

3) Robots are invented

4) Idiots try to make 2) & 3) "smart" and then build them using 1)

5) After fail doing 4), MORE idiots will try and try and try until it happens

* A crisis, worldwide, will be used to justify this!

And with surprise in the face, the idiots will ask "how this happen to us?" when, of course, is too late.
Because that's not comparable..? If someone tried to disseminate classified Chinese military documents depicting war crimes, and got caught by CCP, chances are that nobody will ever see them or hear of them ever again.

A much more comparable incident is something like this ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump_sexual_misconduct... ),
where nobody was "disappeared" - on the contrary, for several months, the media talked about it pretty much every day.

I mean the notion of compactness is inspired pretty clearly from the continuum. I also have a degree in pure math and disagree strongly with your characterization of topology, which is literally defined up to homeomorphism which is itself defined by it's continuity. Arguably the whole point of topology is characterized by that which is preserved by continuous deformation, which clearly is inspired by more continuous math. I think you are using incredibly strong language and in a misguided way.
My guess is that Visual Studio Code for the Web [1] and other cloud-based IDEs taking off, JetBrains is being forced to respond with their own cloud-based IDE.

But hats off to them, this looks super cool. I would love to know how they ported their Java/Swing based IDEs to this cloud-based IDE that runs in a browser.

I just gave you both. Merge, and 5-10 years. Also shepherd or buy your own chip manufacturer like Apple did.

Unrelated, I am shocked, shocked that people on this Silicon Valley hideout are downvoting me because they do not like the reality of capitalism. This is like complaining that Germany is unfairly occupying all of France's land in 1941, why can't they let the Allies have a small parcel of land up in Brittany or something, when Germany won it fair and square under international law. Apple owes them nothing. Get used to it, folks, if you think this is all very unfair, you have seen NOTHING, wait till you see what companies do when they decide they don't want to play by the rules!

Thank you. There's nothing else left to discuss.
That's not an analogous situation. This is virtually identical to #MeToo cases in the West. For many years, those were also swept under the rug, but the situation now, while still mixed, does seem different.

A closer analogy would be the accusations that were made against Bill Clinton. Those would (presumably, and hopefully) be dealt with differently today than they were at the time, but to echo your sentiment, it is a bit amnesiac to point fingers at China for behaviour that the West (or perhaps just some Western countries) has just barely started to change.

One difference is that rather than censorship, allegations of sexual abuse by the powerful have long been simply ignored by the police, judiciary, media, etc., rather than censored. The end result was much the same.
Well, none of them are designed by AIs. (So far as I know...)

But for the singularity, we need either chips getting exponentially better, or algorithms getting exponentially better. In fact, "exponentially" isn't enough. e^kt is just Moore's Law. For a real singularity, we need something that approaches infinity in a finite amount of time; that takes faster than exponential (no matter what the value of k is).

So, given the limitations of silicon, the singularity needs either completely different chips or completely different algorithms.

It seems to me, then, that if there's going to be a singularity, it will come from one of two places:

1. P=NP. A (low exponent) polynomial algorithm for NP complete problems would open some fundamentally new doors. My personal suspicion, though, is that this would not be enough for a true singularity.

2. Quantum computing. This could get us completely new chips as well as completely new algorithms. Could. This presumes that quantum computing is both practical and widely (rather than narrowly) revolutionary. That is, it would have to change (or replace) everything, not just a few things. Databases, not just factoring numbers.

I still am skeptical of the singularity. But if it's going to happen, my money currently is on quantum computing as the avenue.
