> Many GPUs (and CPUs) have their stock voltage quite high because it improves yield for the manufacturer.

The higher voltages don't improve yields since manufacturers usually bin parts by testing them at higher voltages, decreasing them until the part passes the whole test suite for a grade.

The primary pressure on stock voltage is headline numbers like core count and clock speed that consumers have been trained to compare by decades of marketing. This is especially obvious with laptops and desktops geared at gamers, which will often come with an even higher voltage than the recommended stock Intel profile at a detriment to performance and efficiency - doing it just to be able to list higher numbers on the specs page at the expense of the usability of the machine.

This is slightly misleading as the average vehicle is much older and with many fewer safety features. It would be more accurate to use a comparable vehicle.
The real hard question is whether this is a physical phenomenon or a purely psychological one. The idea that we should speculate about "how should we respond?" before we've answered that is disturbing. This is how wars start.

Why didn't the author benchmark the one-instruction equivalent MOV AL,[RBX+AL] that the author uses to explain XLATB? How would its performance differ from the third sequence going through RCX?
Yeah,

Even more, it's confounded by picking a control group and a study group and then asking "what's different?" without necessarily knowing why X should be different. What reason do they have to think white matter should be less? Afaik, none. It's something like p-hacking.

gemini://gemini.bortzmeyer.org/software/lupa/stats.gmi : 86 % of the capsules use TLS 1.3, 14 % use TLS 1.2.

Not sure about ESNI/ECH stats but TLS 1.3 is pretty widely used.

One problem I see is the same problem I see when considering a greenhouse with vertical walls or a hoophouse with curved walls. Vertical walls don’t waste space.

Speaking of which, my 3rd gen Kindle just died. Any suggestions on a replacement? As best I can tell, the trade-offs (staying in the Kindle ecosystem) are to have no physical buttons, or to have an oddly asymmetric bezel (and no USB-C). Seems like an unnecessary and unfortunate trade-off.

This is English, not Latin or Greek. There’s no such thing as “correct” in language as long as you can be understood, especially for silly details like how to make a plural. You’ll find octopi in the dictionary because it is commonly used. Remember all words are made up anyway.

If you’re not the editor of a publication making local standards for how you want to use language, it’s better not to correct people when they’re perfectly well understood.
Not the author of the comment, but I can give an example of how it's used in physics. The first law of thermodynamics states (in a simplified form) that the energy into a system is equal to the energy out. So it's a symmetrical process. This means a lot of times we can calculate half of a thermodynamic process, (i.e the heat flow into a system), and know that, over a long enough period of time, the heat flow out of the system will be equivalent.

I don’t particularly romanticize brick and mortar retailers. There were/are good ones but there are also terrible ones. The best create a shopping experience that makes going in an enjoyable experience in and of itself or consistently provide expertise beyond what I can find on my own.

What I do prioritize is immediacy and support. If a retailer has something in stock I'll often go get it there to not wait 2 days and to be able to get a replacement quickly if something is wrong. Similarly, when looking for a bigger ticket item I prefer in person retail because I can (sonetimes literally) kick the tires and in some cases I can have a support relationship with the store. If I showroom an item at the store I will try to buy it from them, although I absolutely will ask them to price match the internet.

You asked "how do you calculate that from an economic perspective." I look at how much I'd had to pay at the brick and mortar store or the alternative, subtract out how much the cost is at Amazon, add back an estimate of the opportunity cost to go to the physical store/shop an alternative site, and then decide if the number is worth what I'd willing give for the shopping / support/ satisfaction of knowing I didn't support Amazon.
We draw the line ourselves. This line will be the aggregate maximum punitive multiple that you'd append to a theft.

Property theft to many, even implicitly, is very much the equivalent of the theft of some quantity of their life. People work and struggle, expending some quantity of their life to acquire property. To forcibly deprive them of their property is the removal of some portion of their life.

The other way to view this is that in an ideal world, this is done by the state. The state alone possesses the means for other punishment. The individual cannot detain, nor can they fine or garnish wages. The sole means of action available to the individual is force. Thus, if the state is derelict in it's duty, the citizen has only the application of force at his disposal. When you're applying force, you'd better be willing to go to lethal, since being unwilling to do so drastically increases the risk to yourself if the counterparty doesn't play by the same rules.
A gunner is also someone who tries way too hard in law school.
Due to the lack of police enforcement and prosecution by the courts, a segment of the populace has figured out that they can do things like this and get away with it, with no consequences.

There's a segment of the population that seems to believe this kind of looting and other theft/crime is largely a product of poverty; that if we would increase the minimum wage, have more affordable housing, and generally improve the conditions of the working poor, that these crimes would go away.

I believe that kind of thinking is dangerous and foolish.

For context, I say it to myself because of my severe adhd. It's quite frequently the case that I'm inclined to not do anything at all...in which case, I use it as a mantra to help me just get something done.

e.g., it's better to spend 10 minutes doing a workout than not at all. It can be easier to convince myself to do 10 minutes than 30 minutes. 5 minutes is also better than not at all. Still not feeling it? 2.5 minutes. Still better than not at all.

I haven't really explored the thought in the context of over achievement or not. I'd be curious why bob got a C instead of an A? was he over extended and stressed? was he simply challenged by the material?

Certainly living within one's capacity is a limiting factor of the mantra. It is after all just a saying that I use to help me live a healthy life in an area I often have difficulty. YMMV :)

I wonder if the trend of using the 'Latinx' term falls under the hypercorrection definition or there's something else to describe it.
I'm not passing judgement on the inclusiveness intention, but the English word for Latino and Latina is just Latin, which doesn't have gender. There's no need to mix linguistics with algebra and add a gender variable to the latin word.

What is the default choice and why does the company, studio, or product have this default?

This is especially relevant because most places will go to extraordinary lengths to confirm their priors for the default choice, but 90% of the time they probably are choosing correctly even without good analysis! So to reverse it, changes to the default need to be low risk or have amazing upside.
> Most marginalized groups don't "overcompensate in achievement-related domains", and I don't see what mechanism would make LGBT people be any different.

A significant difference is that for the LGBT people, revealing their marginalized status is a choice. A Black kid can't pretend to be white, but a gay kid can pretend to be straight (or their birth gender). Adults can as well, but being able to get an education in the in group seems like a significant difference.

I doubt it's emotionally healthy to do so, but neither is getting discriminated against. Even having the option between a rock and a hard place might give people a sense of control over their lives that they lack if their only option is getting discriminated against.

Familial achievement might also be related. Many marginalized groups have highly heritable traits, like skin tone or facial features. Their families have been discriminated against for generations. Many LGBT people are born into non-marginalized families, so the median familial income might be higher. There might be data on this, but I couldn't find it easily, so I could be totally off base.

I'm not proposing that's the reasoning behind this effect, just pointing out there is a mechanism by which there would be a reasonable difference. Neither of those would account for the difference in college graduation rates for lesbians vs gay men, though.
tl;dr: faces usually don't matter

I read blogs from authors I have no idea what they look like or where they live or anything, some for almost 20 years, and longer than even that with ppl on IRC. All you need is some consistent identity for people to internalize, which in a lot of cases is a nickname, username, or whatever. Heck, I'm certain a site that used only database IDs to identify users would see (stronger, perhaps) connections form just the same as you see on LinkedIn. "On 11/21/21, 384372 wrote:..." Furthermore I'd bet that there are people who still think to themselves something like "I wonder what happened to 'gardenfloot' on Napster."

>On a related note, I often wonder how people are so sure it’s him.

It's him because it's his (I assume) channel and username. That's a reasonable assumption under the social contract such that any aberration would likely be an emergency or a successful hack or something. There have also been groups of people who act as a single online identity, but yours doesn't sound like it's that at all.

I also think celebrity itself is transforming into something a little less oriented around mobbing and paparazzi, and that being recognized is something relative nobodies can get and somebodies can lose, increasing the number of doppelgangers and diluting the entire celebrity industry.
Sorry to hear that man. You did it once, quite well in fact, so you could always do it again if the opportunity strikes. Hopefully we'll figure out a way to make it simpler for this kind of thing to sustain itself. Until then I'm glad there's no ambiguity at the number one priority, health and well being.

I'm glad that in general society has moved on from such crude ideas of justice.

What's behind the rapid disappearance of the delta variant in Japan
indeed. this is one of the benefits of a concurrent sequential processing model with a scheduler.

e.g., in Go, blocking syscalls get put on their own thread in a thread pool, so that processing can continue while waiting.

I'm sure you can do something similar in a raw event loop, but I don't think the machinery is generally baked in to the io interfaces to do so.

There are three different "first mentions" of Korean diving women in the recorded Korean history:

- Descriptions of Jeju's Natural Features (제주풍토기, 濟州風土記) is written in 1628--1635 and contains the first direct mention of diving women and a term for them (jamnyeo).

- Jeju, the kingdom of Tamna at that time, was annexed by the mainland Goryeo in 1105. The new governor Yoon Eung-gyun (윤응균, 尹應均) issued a decree to forbid men and women to dive together, suggesting diving women existed back then.

- Jeju was well known for its goods for the king since at least 503 (according to the History of Three Kingdoms [삼국사기, 三國史記]), so there must have been some divers in Jeju, probably both men and women inferred from later records.

Ask HN: Why doesn't Mozilla launch a search engine?
Every time I install a browser (be it FF or Chrome), I install a set of extensions right off the bat. uBlock Origin is one of them. But I also install extensions that customize my experience on Google, and "detoxify" Google to some extent. For example, I use uBO to filter "People Also Search For" on search results, and I used to use another extension that would let me know when was the last time I visited links on the search page. I also use extensions so that Google doesn't show me results from Medium/Quora/Pinterest.

I think all of this and more could be part of a "sane" search engine that would give the power to the user. I don't use DDG because many of the extensions I mentioned above are not available for it, and also because I simply don't trust them.

Given Mozilla's mission and their success with reviving FF, I wonder if a search engine is on their to-do list in the future.

Well...yes and no. We can argue about whether Softbanks plan of handing out billions to let tech companies blitzscale and obtain market dominance via first mover advantage and network effects and the power of SaaS economics (good scaling; low capital intensiveness) and so forth was a good idea or not.

But WeWork was 1) not a tech company 2) had no hope of obtaining market dominance 3) wasn't the first mover 4) existed in a market with no network effects 5) wasn't a SaaS company but instead was in a capital intensive business that scaled linearly. No part of the Softbank plan applied here!

> Turns out when you Silicon Valley tech executives a billion dollars

What about when you hand some real estate developers...what did it end up being in the end? $18.5B dollars?

(On a similar note, in other markets - specifically ride hailing - Softbank picked multiple competitors in a single market and funded both sides ensuring no single market leader would emerge. Again, even if the core Softbank strategy would have worked, it can't work when you don't even try and follow it.)

Thank you for your good nature on this topic. Driving is a fraught issue, in that we have all sorts of social attitudes around it that prevent us thinking critically about the necessity and costs of driving.

I've always been skeptical of driving, since I lost my best friend to it in high school, and saw others lose their friends. But. Since I've had children, I've been completely radicalized, and find it hard to even discuss the issue with a lot of people because my views have diverged so much from the mainstream. I unintentionally offend people all the time, and seeing your attitude gives me hope for finding more productive ways to express my views, like danny_codes did here.

The stack engine only handles the adjustment of the stack pointer, converting the push and pop to regular load/store uops.

But the store-then-load pattern is optimised by the store buffers, which do store-forwarding to forward the result of the in-flight store to the load without having to go though L1 cache.

It's not quite free, you still have to complete the store (the cpu can't assume optimising away a stack push is safe, unless it's actually overwritten) and there is still a 4 cycle latency, but that probably isn't an issue due to out-of-order execution.

I second Zoho One.

Prior to about 6 months ago, I had used Salesforce for almost ten years. I was a big fan of it, but the cost and complexity for a small business became too much.

I switched to Zoho One and use it to single handedly run an IT Services small business with $500k+ ARR.

Out of the box it is capable enough, but over time, Ive been able to make even more improvements.

I have integrations setup via web hooks/built in integrations, leads automatically created upon contact submissions to website, proposals/contracts generated via templates and mail merge, send docs for signature, etc.

I’ve even automated parts that require non-user actions traditionally handled via typing the same email over and over again (e.g., sending invoice information to accounting).

To do many of the things I described in Salesforce, it would have taken me significantly more time and cost much more money. Salesforce has a minimum user license requirement, as well as a requirement for annual contracts. Zoho allows for month-to-month and has no minimum.

I almost feel like a shill for it now, so I’ll stop. However, I can’t recommend it highly enough.
