This all the information:

"With new Vertical Transport Field Effect Transistors, or VTFET, IBM and Samsung have successfully implemented transistors that are built perpendicular to the surface of the chip with a vertical, or up-and-down, current flow."

The rest is marketing.

It is nice to see innovation. I hope they put it in production.
I agree. To the people saying it’s not tech: It’s not as if AirBnB or DoorDash created new technology. There definitely are start-ups in the areas listed above, but I’d like to see more household names.

Investors invested $25 billion into Uber to make it into some kind of success. I recently heard a billionaire VC say that their fund will bring about the future we all want, and someone replied, “The future who wants?” and the investor replied something to the effect of, customers vote with their wallet. I found this very misguided. It matters what we, as a society, invest in, and what kinds of money-making machines we build, bid sky-high, and blindly keep throwing money at.

It is kind of amazing that a fairly full-featured 1 GHz/512MB PC running a Unix-like OS is only $5, so you can afford to use it as an embedded microcontroller.
Eventually, yes.

Could quickly phase out the less efficient hardware in the nearer term or cause a temporary stasis in energy use keeping it the same as now.

So you’ll want to keep innovating on all parts of the stack, consensus models, proof of work hashing algorithms that work orders of magnitude better on boutique lower powered hardware architectures (optical/analog is gaining interest), and municipal regulations

Historically, the seat has not been wielded at a politically productive scale. More recently, a somewhat cogent policy front has formed. It is now getting a great deal of attention in places like SF, LA, Chicago, Philly, Sacramento, and many counties.
i think the crux is that it's hard to find 500 people who are all at such high level of capability that could make use of macros in lisp - esp. if they all need to follow a similar style of programming (iirc, lisp macros tend to follow idiosyncrasies of the person writing it).

It's almost as though you're asking for 500 Michael Angelo to help paint the sistine chapel in order to do it faster.

I think we're just about there. The wake word could still be a tad better, which might just be some settings on my part. Most of the time the intent recognition works as expected. At this point, it's how we primarily control lights and timers at home. So pretty practical!
Dark matter first gained notoriety when hypothesized to explain observations of galaxy rotation curves. Since the late 1930's, there have been a number of observations unrelated to galaxy rotation curves that couldn't be explained with contemporary science, so... it's dark matter! A lot that can't be explained got shoved into the dark matter hypothesis.

Once enough things that couldn't be explained were lumped into dark matter, it became a part of the science paradigm. Once you understand paradigms, you'll understand why it seems like all of science is convinced that dark matter exists. But this is not actually the case, it is merely that dark matter has not been disproven. The luminiferous ether, another famous hypothesis, was once also embedded in the paradigm of science, and it only took one experiment to prove it did not exist to dislodge it. Dark matter is going to stick around until disproven, that is the nature of paradigms.

As it turns out, dark matter is absolutely unnecessary to explain galaxy rotation curves, which can be simply explained and demonstrated accurately with a toy model without needing anything remotely like dark matter nor even Modified Newtonian Dynamics, but just the ordinary Newtonian physics. I suspect as time goes on, more and more of the stuff unrelated to each other that dark matter is employed to explain will be explained without the need for dark matter.

There are no direct observations of dark matter, none whatsoever. And by definition, there never will be. It can't be seen! What there is instead are observations that don't have immediate explanations, so dark matter is hypothesized to explain it. That makes dark matter a hypothesis.
But showing someone has poor discretion is the point.

As an example, defending someone that had such generally agreed poor discretion is not, generally, showing good discretion either.
Electron app developers and extreme outliers bring it up all the time. It seems over rated to me.

Discord is free and has network effects. Lots of users complain about it. It competes with another Electron app mostly.

VS Code is free and has network effects. And high overhead and lots of custom UI are the norm for IDEs. I don't think anyone meant Electron is suitable for nothing.

Arq users didn't hate the Electron version because it was shittier than other Electron apps. They hated it because it was the normal level of shitty for Electron apps. Teams, Slack, and Spotify show many users doesn't mean happy users.

I didn't say you claimed Electron apps have fewer sketchy practices. But it's strange and pointless to just praise Electron apps for a minimum of sketchy practices if you don't.

"Yet is it far better to light the candle than to curse the darkness."

The workers would handle both ingress and egress. The ingress feed should already be encoded for distribution by whatever system is pushing it. The durable objects in the middle would hold a moderate buffer of content which would be referred to on the egress routes. Archival would be a separate system that listens to all egress sessions at the same time. A 3rd websocket CF worker route could be used to exclusively manage video player/streamer/editor events.

One low-latency system I had in mind would go: individual streamer frames (jpeg) -> PUT CF route -> route adds durable object per frame -> GET CF route w/ current frame counter returns newer frames -> Client web UI displays the jpeg frames with appropriate timing via a 2-3 frame buffer.

This has much higher bandwidth requirements due to the loss of interframe compression effects, but it is compatible with 100% of platforms and very fast. It also allows for very simple seeking.

If you are willing to leverage cloudflare and your target audience can handle a ~25 mbps download requirement, then this model could fit. You can get more mileage per bps if you reduce quality/resolution too.

You can also put some intelligence in the stream path. Distributed compositing pipelines and other fun ideas. It's infinitely easier when everything is natively "just an image". Maybe some server's only job is to draw the hud on top of a frame received from a datacenter across the street.

You can use NFTs for proof of digital ownership though? Not sure what you're even saying lol. I've heard more lies from people claiming everything in the space is a scam (when their own knowledge is obviously lacking) than scammers in the space trying to get rich quick.

You can literally make a project that has tokenized assets in the form of NFTs, and provide services based on ownership of that collection. It's trivial to detect whether an NFT is a forgery, and also trivial to detect if a user actually owns the NFT they claim to own. So when you are making claims that this is a lie, I have no idea where you are even coming from. It's literally proof of digital ownership for essentially a ticket/token into a service.

web3 will almost certainly never achieve its goals if hardware wallet adoption isn't ubiquitous.

If that is true then web3 may be in trouble. For a very long time people have pushed for hardware devices for MFA and yet most people still use phones if they even have MFA at all. I know people with Yubikeys and other devices because of the circles I have been in but in the wider audience of the internet they are exceedingly rare. So unless it becomes super easy for the masses to have a hardware wallet such as their financial institution issuing one then I am not sure how you realistically get past this problem. That of course puts people back into trusting and depending on their financial institution and its third party providers.

I don’t think those are exceptions. The signal to noise ratio is about the same (at least in my admittedly anecdotal experience of being a hiring manager off and on since 2013 or so). Nobody is truly unemployable. Filtering through 19 candidates to get to the 1 who really shines is just part of the job. Filtering to just CS grads or whatever doesn’t change that.

I just need somebody who can do the job. New CS grads usually can’t - not without a ton of handholding. If I’m going to hire somebody and I’m going to have to provide a ton of guidance and mentoring up front, what difference does it make if I’m mentoring a CS grad or a self taught programmer?

A caveat: CS theory is useful. Given a choice between two otherwise equal bootcamp grads, I’m probably going to pick the one that has some deeper understanding of CS foundations (or potentially even better, an enthusiastic interest in learning that material). I truly do not care about the credential though.
The type of personality that aims for this position also intrigues me. The number of bodies you need to stand upon to get to the top is horrible.

Sorry, are you arguing that the mere fact that something you do isn’t illegal means you can’t be criticized for it?

Would it follow that you can’t criticize Joe Biden for any of his decisions as long as they aren’t actually illegal? I seriously can’t make sense of your position. What’s under dispute is not whether the act was legal but whether it was a horrible idea.
I've been salivating at the thought of something like this too, but the whole module system being built around USB4 would be kind of a problem.

Really I'm just waiting for host support to trickle out to chipsets other than those by the vendors who wrote the Thunderbolt spec it was built around.

But on a similar note, personally I'd be even more interested in a board that's just a USB4 hub instead of even having its own internals. Given the moddable-on-purpose nature of them, it would enable a whole new range of capabilities if they could also extend other devices, especially if (I hope when?) they branch out to other form factors.

P.S. I'm typing this comment on one right now -- Batch 5 ^.^

That's disingenuous, "Discretion" is also defined as "the quality of making good judgements" and "the ability to make responsible decisions" and "the ability to make intelligent decisions". I don't think Carmen exhibited any of those qualities of discretion.

In fact, many are literally mercenary soldiers!
Utility pricing is one of the most regulated things in the country.

They don't "regulate the creation" of a monopoly for something like power - it's the definition of "natural monopoly". They regulate it so hard because capitalism DOES NOT WORK for this. Texas still tries it, and we're all seeing how well their underfunded, poorly maintained utilities blow up the second you get a slight perturbance in the natural order (ooops - hope joe blow likes his 16k power bill this month!)

Also - Even if you were to buy true off-grid solar and completely avoid the grid for your home, there is literally no way you are not taking advantage of power provided by the power companies. It's in your street lights, your cell towers, your stores, your gas stations, your schools/libraries/gov buildings. It's running the pumps for your sewers, the traffic lights for your roads, the signage at your DMV. It's EVERYWHERE - And you are using it.

So do I think this particular legislation is the right way to solve it? No - probably not. But I'm not an angry child who's unable to hold a real conversation around how we structure society.
There is obviously a difference between an ad which doesn't pretend to be anything else and financial "advice" which is pretending to be advice.

> They're simple in that they're easy to define and reason about.

Only they aren't.

Who allocates a node? Who owns a list node? Who deallocates a node? Who owns a list node when you disconnect it? How do you handle walking a list when someone may update it at the same time? How do you ensure that you don't deallocate a list underneath somebody? What happens when a list is circular? How do you detect that a list is circular? How do you deallocate a circular list?

In fact, a "linked list" is a particularly nasty data structure to reason about in the presence of concurrency if you don't have garbage collection.

Personally, I think that Rust's inability to deal with linked lists points out some fundamental failing of the language itself. However, that doesn't make linked lists simple or easy.
