This is really not looking at the math in the right way for those that are the target market. If you just want an M1 instance just because sure just go buy one and keep in plugged in all the time in your basement. That’s not the target market.

Imagine you’re developing an app in regulated market and need to have Macs for CI/CD There’s a lot more to this than just keeping some Mac mini’s under your desk. How are you managing physical security in your environment? Do you have all the associated certifications in place? Can we see your last audit? Who’s fixing this when something breaks? What about your in house IT folks that done want to build out a whole new operation to manage Macs now? What if next week you need 5x as many instances but only for 2 days? That’s what your paying for in the price here, not just the cost of the instance itself and power.

When faced with all those requirements and challenges the pricing looks inexpensive.

Many people are in denial that neighborhoods like these are possible despite them existing in pockets of the US (I live in one in SF) and ALL over the world. All you need to do is not surrender space to cars and allow density - and have the demand to support the density - and it just works.

> Google is better at AI, for example let's take this sloppy search: "some joke where you can't tell if it is serious or joke"

My problem there is that I don't expect or want my search engine to do that. The counter case is where I remember a quote from and article and want to find the article. Old Google would help me find matching text and I could quickly find the original article. Current Google will try to interpret the text and give me some nonsense based on that.

AI has ruined other Google features... the "search by image" feature now analyzes the image, returns a generic tag like "woman", and shows me the wikipedia article on women as the first result.

Old search by image had tineye like functionality and you could find the source of images.
>This is surprisingly disciplined and extreme. Kudos (i think? Can't quite tell if you're missing out due to ideology or holding good ground).

I don't think it's extreme as it's passive not active (I'm not focusing on NOT using it). I just don't care. I care about the feed as much as you care about mastering Nunchaku: very close to 0.

>Unfortunately, it seems like you're probably in the minority there. Algo feeds are way easier to ensure the user always sees something new (which is somewhat important), and you can still make it only people you follow (so still only your friends).

Time to raise $X billion for "Instagram, but with no algos". What I would like is an orange bar delineating where my feed last updated, like slack and discord. That way I can click a button to scroll me to the bottom of all the new posts, and I can scroll up until theres nothing left. That would be fantastic.

Reddit is an extreme example of group think. Try posting something pro-Trump (I mean, surely even that guy has a positive thing or two to be said about him) and you'll get banned in some subs. Or you may get banned simply because the mod doesn't like the fact that you don't toe the party line.
Sure, but they also have simpler hardware that's easier to audit and almost all have removable batteries, which is most likely just as effective as a faraday bag.

Yes, but do you really think we should manage our health system like a windy cell phone network provider? By the way, the cell phone networks and internet connections in Germany are on the level of some 3rd world countries.
I don't know what the design goals of RISC-V were, but I would guess performance is not the key goal or at least not the only goal. It makes more sense that ease of implementation is a more important goal, if they want to make adoption easy. That's another argument for favoring RISC over CISC.
This study (respectable institution, large sample, not yet peer reviewed) seems to claim vaccines significantly lower the chance of transmisson. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.09.28.21264260v...
I’m sure it was damaging, honestly. I have to think most professional sound mixers have lost part of their hearing, because the standards for “good audio” are far too loud. For example, IMAX, which is supposed to have technically well calibrated sound in the theatre, clocks around 95db in the especially loud parts, and over 80db for large portions. This is after watching Dune in two different IMAX theaters and checking my watch’s audio level sensor :)

But Tenet is probably the loudest I’ve ever heard in a theatre. It had to be more than 90db for large parts of it.

And then I attended a wedding reception with a DJ recently, and it was over 90db for the whole two hours in a small-ish hall. Imo, that’s unacceptable.

In both of these experiences, my ears hurt bad. I can only think that the people making the decision to go this loud have already had their hearing damaged enough that they don’t think it’s loud enough. Well, why don’t we fix the problem by not busting people’s ears in the first place!

Maybe we should start suing folks who try to damage our hearing? Or get some legislation to set a cap on the average and max db allowed at various events? I’m not really sure how this problem will get solved.

And don’t get me wrong, I love immersive audio! I really enjoyed a lot of Dune’s soundtrack and mixing. I’m just shocked that immersive audio today basically means “turn it up to 90db to kill their ears” and not “let’s have a really meticulously mixed and nicely balanced experience.” But that enjoyment ends when my ears hurt.
This is definitely a refreshing / important perspective to hear. It's one I haven't actually heard yet from any other practicing artists and it makes me feel a little better / less hopeless about my friends who are dumping money into minting fees.

> they have helped a lot of artists survive the pandemic

Not an attempt to call-out or anything but just curious roughly how many artists you personally know that fall into this category.

>“After I shoot Mr Rosenbaum, he tried to grab my gun. I was running away. There was a gunshot behind me. After I shot him, I run around the car because I was going to go render first-aid to him,” the teenager said in a recorded TV interview on Monday.

What did you expect him to do? EMTs are not gods that reverse death, nor was he wrong getting away from a violent crowd. He offered first aid, where did he say he was an EMT?

Did you actually watch the video or read the interview?
> Why is it better to let people be sickened, even if they can later sue, than put some stops up on risky behavior in the first place?

Consequentialist reason: you don't put barriers and friction in front of (e.g.) biotech and drug innovation. See the pandemic for this (FDA has killed approximately a million people alone by preventing covid vaccines from being available in the market sooner).

Deontological reason: you don't have the right to tell people what they can and can't do with their own bodies (w.r.t. products they want to consume, at their own risk, etc).

There's also regulatory capture, which reliably and predictably occurs in mixed economies (see e.g. public choice economics).
Vaccines probably reduce the chance of a new variant.

A lower viral load means a lower probability of a mutation happening, given that the number of mutations is proportional to the load over time.

There's some small chance that the opposite is true, and vaccines will mean deadly strains are more easily spread since the person is more likely to be asymptomatic or low-symptoms and will therefore not isolate.

But on net we expect vaccines to prevent variants.
I'm not an expert on ISA and CPU internals, but an X86 instruction is not just "an instruction" anymore. Afaik, since the P6 arch Intel is using a fancy decoder to translate x86/-64 CISC into an internal RISC ISA (up to 4 u-ops per CISC instruction) and that internal ISA could be quite close to the RISC-V ISA for all I know.

Instruction decoding and memory ordering can be a bit of nightmare on CISC ISAs and fewer macro-instructions are not automatically a win. I guess we'll eventually see in benchmarks.

Even though Intel has had decades to refine their CPUs I'm quite excited to see where RISC-V is going.

Technically correct, but the Firefox and Chrome listed in the iOS lockdown store are basically just skins on top of WebKit, not actually different web browsers (like they are on Android and other modern operating systems).

It sounds like the EU and others may be fixing this soon by forcing Apple to allow other app stores on their devices if they want to continue selling devices in their regions.

Presumably Amazon store / Epic store / etc on iOS will carry real Firefox / Chrome.
> Mandatory parking minimums make constructing new housing more difficult, raising the cost of housing. The city is making the tradeoff that affordable housing is more important than free parking. As density increases it will hit a point where you need to pay for parking. I live in Belltown and own a parking spot. Ultimately I think this is the right direction to go, the city shouldn't have to pay to store your car.

I get it, but Seattle public transportation isn't good enough to just tell people they shouldn't have a car. I have a driveway and a garage, so the problem is solved for me, and in theory means someone could put their car in front of my house on the street. But if they're putting 6 townhouses on a lot, that won't scale, and maybe they should instead build 4 and parking.

> the city shouldn't have to pay to store your car.

I agree, but that's pretty much what forcing people to park on the street is. I do get that mandating parking raises the cost of housing, which is also counterproductive. But if you drive through Ballard, street parking is pretty tight - I'm not saying people are going to start parking in the median on 8th and 15th, but I'm not sure how much more they can build w/o parking before it starts to look like S. Broad St in Philly!

If that's the case, you can always stick a uop cache in after the decoder.
'"We have understood that the situation is very serious and that we want to take further measures in addition to those already taken," Merkel told reporters at Thursday's news conference. "The fourth wave must be broken and this has not yet been achieved," she added.'

You do not need special measures. Florida and Sweden didn't have any and have the best graphs right now. Outbreaks stop by themselves.

Of course, if you lock down the unvaccinated right when the bell curve is at its natural top, you can take credit when the numbers go down. This is exactly what is happening right now.

I don't think writing a merge sort is either a trick question or an esoteric puzzle. Neither is using a whiteboard during a tech interview. It's very common. I'm sorry this author had a bad experience with it.

For me, it's all about mindset. Interviews are a two way street. Talk to the interviewer, they're people too. If there are assholes, then whatever, you've still learned more and gotten to an better outcome for you.

If you don't know the language you're asked to write something in, ask to change it to something you do know. If the interviewer says language X is required for the job just be upfront about it. Stop the interview right there and address that issue. 'Look, I don't know/haven't used x in a while. Can I use y with the understanding that I need to come up to speed quickly? Otherwise, we can get our days back.'

The shame here is that the author is still clearly bitter about something that happened 6 years ago and the interviewer probably chalked it up to another hack who can't even implement a merge sort.
Yes, because you're all tied together for some reason?

Really, this analogy is too much of a stretch to be meaningful.

Amount of instructions matters much less if they can be fused into more complex instructions before execution.

RISC-V was designed with hindsight on fusion, thus it has more opportunities for doing it, and doing it at a lower cost.

And, due to the very high code density RISC-V has, the decoder can do its job while not having to look at a huge window.

Also Rust applications are increasingly going to be built with integer overflow checking enabled, e.g. Android's Rust components are going to ship with integer overflow checking. And unlike say GMP, that poses a potential code density problem because we're not talking about inner loops that can be effectively cached, it's code bloat smeared across the entire binary.

Californians will never approve the energy generation projects required to unlock high volume desalination. They'll be drinking water pumped overland from Colorado until the Hoover Dam is dry.
There’s a requirement that buildings need to have building plans that are personally approved and vouched for by a credentialed Professional Engineer, who takes personal liability—up to and including criminal liability for negligent homicide—if the building collapses and harms people due to a design flaw.

Yes, no problem.

Machines with any size vector registers handle code specifying vector length of 1 (or 0!) no problem.

If you really want to make a machine with vector registers that hold only one element then that will work too, except for a handful of instructions that simply don't make sense in that case (unless you use the LMUL feature): vector permute register, slide up, slide down.

CPUs intended to run standard operating systems with shrink-wrapped software are constrained in the RVA22 profile to provide vector registers of at least 128 bits and no more than 65536 bits. But if you're doing some custom embedded custom CPU then you can make the vector registers the same size as the integer registers (32 or 64 bits). Note that if you do that, you can still usefully do vector operations on chars and shorts, and you can also set LMUL=8 to give you effectively four vector registers of 256 or 512 bits each (which might or migth not be processed serially).

Hello, I graduated around five years ago and then worked at Booz Allen as a full stack web developer for several years. Then I took time off and worked on my own startups (in resume) for a couple years. Lately I'm desiring a change of pace and would like to get back into the workforce. I'd like to do something web-related as that is my passion, although I'm open to other opportunities.

Add the new therapeutics on top and we actually do have the silver bullet. Vaccine + Paxlovid, if widely distributed enough, ends the pandemic, barring some new, more severe variant.
