Not really, that's not how Threadripper works thanks to the chiplet design. It's not necessarily "high quality silicon" since it has a higher TDP budget. But regardless remember that in this case the 5800X and 5950X are also competing with Epyc for that same 8c chiplet silicon.

For something like Intel's HEDT then yes, you're absolutely correct. That involves HEDT-specific binning and it eats into Xeon-W profits very directly. But for Threadripper it's not nearly as clear cut. In fact it seems more like it's silicon that failed to validate for Epyc since it's half the IO die of Epyc (for the non-Pro Threadripper anyway).

Otherwise you're talking about AMD just taking Ryzen-quality chiplets, putting more of them on a substrate, and selling them at a huge markup.

Take the Threadripper 3970X as just a simple example here. It's 4x 8c zen2 chiplets that can hit a peak of 4.5ghz at 280W TDP. Meanwhile the Ryzen 3950x is a 2x 8c zen2 chiplet that hits a peak of 4.7ghz at 105W TDP. So 3970x is 2x the silicon of the 3950x, but lower quality silicon, and AMD charged more than 2x for the 3970X.

That's the brilliance of chiplets and Threadripper. It's Ryzen-class chiplets with half of an Epyc IO die (the IO die being 12nm GloFlo means it's not really competing for high-end prices anyway). It's binning they're already doing for they're primary product lines, not a specialized HEDT-specific process.

> My friend just needed to redo the foundation on his house. He could have spent 10-100x what he needed to and installed a reinforced concrete foundation with deep steel pylons. But that would have been a waste of his money when wooden peirs works just as well for all his intents & purposes.

You can write hard-to-read code in any language. You can't write easy-to-read code in any language. Python tends to make easy-to-read code easier to write than Perl does.

Tricking the host OS into thinking whatever the user wants it to think is a feature of a security processor.

How to design secure hardware: The system board contains two copies of the firmware, for which the source code is published. The first copy is fully read-only and cannot be modified after manufacture. The second copy is in flash memory. A switch or jumper on the system board determines which copy is used at boot.

Now you can trust your software/firmware (if you could trust it from the factory), because the read-only copy can be used to boot the system in order flash the read-write copy to a trusted (possibly newer or third party) firmware version.

This also means that a bad firmware update can't brick your hardware, because you can recover it by using the read-only copy.

There is no requirement for the hardware to prove anything to the OS. If the hardware is compromised, this is not actually possible anyway, because it could lie. What you need is for the hardware to be able to prove something to the user, i.e. that the firmware update or operating system they just installed was actually installed and not ignored or modified by some already-compromised read-write firmware.

> I have a hard time understanding why platforms like electron are so popular.

For an example. I'm writing a FOSS app mainly for myself, but i am publishing it for everyone of course. I want to support Browsers, but also "Apps" in OSs. I'm on Linux, MacOS, Windows and iOS every day.

I do not, by a large margin, have the time to write my application in 3 or 4 different native UI toolkits. Furthermore, my application has a lot of text editing and rendering functionality, one i'd have to then reinvent in various UI toolkits, unless i used something that crossed all OSs above perfectly. Finally, my app has WASM plugins, similar to Obsidian.md, to allow the user to easily extend the application.

All together i will not, by a large margin, use anything Native. I barely have enough time _(don't, honestly lol)_ to write the app once - let alone supporting all the above platforms.

I'm targeting the web.

As an aside, i'm writing this in 100% Rust lol. No JS, because i prefer Rust.
I wish more people took road safety seriously. I was driving around California a lot over the holidays and was appalled (as usual) by how few drivers bother to use turn signals on the freeway. It's such a mind-bogglingly simple thing to do that any person who can't manage it should probably be denied a license.
Agreed entirely. I used to work in the "hybrid cloud" space, and networking was always conspicuously absent from solutions that are supposed to be cross-cloud. I view it as the missing link in a lot of hybrid/multi/edge cloud solutions.

There are many organisations not large enough to justify this setup, for which Lets Encrypt is clearly safer than a custom root CA.

Competitive and relevant Aluminum smelting requires massive economies of scale, an initial capital outlay, and a supply chain. A competitive smelter might require a billion dollars and a few years to build. And you have to negotiate a regular stream of bauxite ore, materials, etc. It's not an easy or quick arbitrage.
The generally accepted meaning of "compensation" is not related to distribution of profit.

How are US Democrats socially far left? There are multiple countries with parties that are literally communists. There are sizable number of US Democrats (especially in the government) who support the death penalty, torture, nukes, a large military, interventionism and mass surveillance (look at the votes concerning the US Patriot act and the reauthorizations). How is any of this "very far left"? They may talk sometimes about socially left issues (homeless, healthcare, etc...), but in terms of actually fixing anything, very little is done, especially that would be considered "left" in any country. Like instead of getting universal healthcare, they just voted to "reform" healthcare companies.

Rather, “capitalist elites who benefit from precarious workers”, is not neutral or objective. That’s an editorialized and oversimplified view of what are the motivations and needs of people actually creating the jobs in the first place.

There are likely more unproductive (deliberately) workers on balance who are siphoning wages from companies than there are “capitalist elites” who prey on their workers needing a job.

The entire article and thread of comments demonstrate that people would prefer to stay at home and be paid than to work and be paid. It’s not hard to imagine why and see the negative downsides unless you’re one of the people trying to justify being paid to stay at home.
Also Wasm support (can be viewed as a kind of embedded) and better portability. Anything that helps one separate the platform and more precisely define the platform boundary the better.

To OP - In "The Tyranny of Merit", Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel argues against the idea of meritocracy, both true meritocracy and the current system of markets running rampant enriching some people massively at the expense of others, yet claiming to be truly meritocratic. He argues the winners will have "meritocratic hubris" where they fail to recognise the pure luck and good fortune that accounts for much of their position, while losers (as in losers in the system, not "loser" in the derogatory sense) blame themselves unfairly and feel humiliated. He links that to the rise of the far right .. not sure I'd go that far but its an interesting hypothesis. Seems to me you and your friends could be in this exact position. Your friend's house that increased in value - they simply got lucky, right place right time, possibly had some skills timing the market. You're made to feel bad just because you haven't yet had your lucky break. Seems to me such massive wealth disparity is destructive to people's relationships with friends and family, including the people who got rich. Its easy to see those left poor are suffering. But actually do the rich ones really benefit from having millions if it wrecks their relationships? My advice, avoid jealousy or envy as unhappiness lies down that path. Instead, recognise that luck plays an enormous part, try to come to terms with that. If you can earn more and/or live frugally to sort your own finances out, then do that. I recognise that may or may not be easy / possible. Writing this as someone of average means - some friends have houses worth twice ours, (and people we never mix with have more than that), some friends have very little. We feel we're in the middle, get by by being careful with spending, and are happy with what we have. Good luck. I think asking this Q on HN is good, and also suggests you're trying to be a good friend and a nice person :)

> And yes you can write logs that nobody will ever be able to read, but what's the point of that? When your manufacturing plant is a smoldering rubble, someone is going to want to launch an expedition for those hard drives and try and figure out what caused millions (or potentially billions) of dollars in damages, so if you just wrote everything to standard output and washed your hands of the rest, you might have to find another job anyway.

Reducing the number of points of failure is almost always a good idea. The network being down is one problem, not being able to ever know what your applications did when the network was down is another problem added to the first problem.
Many countries have extradition treaties with the US. It's likely that due to how much more high-profile Theranos case has been, that the US would have expended more resources tracking her down compared to the yoga guru. Plus she would have had to spend the rest of her life on the run and find a country (e.g. Russia? Cuba? Venezuela?) to grant her asylum. No normal person would want to try either of the above, much less someone born with a silver spoon in their mouth.
Stainless steel rebar is an often overlooked option. In theory, solid SS rebar should outlast the concrete, but it is a difficult thing to accurately study. In favorable conditions, regular rebar reinforced concrete starts to need major repairs after ~40 years due to corrosion.

The Progresso Pier in Mexico was build over 80 years ago with SS rebar, and reportedly has not needed any renovations. A pier built 20 years later using mild steel rebar has been almost completely destroyed by the ocean.

I wish more large infrastructure projects would use it. The up-front costs can be 2x higher, but the lifetime savings win out in many situations.

> Adding interior insulation makes the house much more comfortable, but also changes the thermal dynamics, potentially causing freeze/thaw damage in the brick, and allowing moisture to accumulate between the brick and the insulation. This is one of the many details that would need to be worked out for the complete design of the home.

Yeah, this comment struck me as a more major detail to be worked out compared to the other many details listed. Most of the others had multiple options with different drawbacks and benefits but either would work. This seems like we still haven't reached a solution for the exterior walls.
Those are somewhat limited by optics, though. If you could make a DMD with a pixel pitch of 500 nm it would not be a useful display for visible light because of diffraction. Also, they are usually used to produce moving images for human eyes, so it isn't useful for them to run any faster than a few kHz, which macroscopic things like speaker cones and dentists' drills can already do. So it might be possible for current fab technology to make much smaller, faster moving parts than that; Zettl at Berkeley COINS reported a 500-nm-across motor in 02003, for example, but using nanotubes rather than photolithography.
With you for the most part, but can’t get behind your analogy.

> Try learning building a 747 from a bootcamp. You can't.

Yeah, try doing that with an engineering degree. You can’t.

Try grabbing a random Boeing engineer and get them to build a 747. They can’t. No one can.

Okay, I should be more charitable. You mean can’t contribute to a portion of the 747 project? Yeah, college isn’t necessarily going to help you much either, and you might be surprised what a smart person off the street can do… there’s a really good chance your boss just has a bunch of spreadsheets for all her maths. Yeah in the grand scheme of things you’ll have to learn how to do that too, but it may not be the barrier it seems.

I’m a SW Eng, but did and entry level EE gig, and basing my experience on that. College did not prepare me at all. Engineers routinely enter industry without knowing what a relay is (and we used ladder logc!). Btw, we had self taught non-college educated “engineers”… they'd usually be talented operators that knew the machine like the back of their hands. So that’s basically an ME without a degree.

I did a stint on an F-16 project after switching to computer engineering, and it was the same shit. Almost everything was learned on the spot from the veterans or google for general stuff.

So yes, I could have worked on F-16 off the street, as well as done EE work and it really seemed like my ME friends were grinding out the same BS.

Where are all these super special engineering people you so admire? Some of them do get very specialized education, but we were talking BS Engs.

P.S. I do agree about the accessibility of programming. There actually are many topics that are hard to self learn, for example comp arch would be very challenging without a good professor. There’s many others, that’s just what sticks out as “thank God I went to uni so I could learn X”

These papers are not directly comparable.

Singer et al paper estimates first occurrence of myocarditis without any previous cardiovascular history and without previous vaccination against COVID-19. The OP paper does not have this specification so the results of these papers are not directly comparable.

In addition the Singer et al paper includes also pericarditis, myopericarditis (myocarditis and pericarditis occurring together) in addition to myocarditis. Considering that pericarditis is more prevalent in COVID-19 patients and is missing in vaccinated https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-021-01630-0 OP papers clearly is overestimating the difference.
Having a lot of different bad ways of dealing with something is not an excuse for not having a single good way of dealing with something, which is kind of the point about why Perl has failed as a programming language.

I would surmise that by not sourcing new materials (that currently aren't that green from a carbon footprint perspective which is probably the largest part of your footprint) you are saving a lot of carbon cost. There are challenges with old homes such as sealing the building envelope and updating wiring/heating etc.

Maybe I am telling myself that - I'm not sure. My argument does resonate though.

New builds require the destruction of the old material, sourcing of new material, energy and time spent to put that together. And if you don't get a good build is all going to have to be rebuilt in the not too distant future whereas the house I have has lasted over 100 years and is still in great shape - I figure I can get another 100 with the proper maintenance/updating etc.

There's nothing cynical about that, for most companies in the world their entire purpose and primary reason for existence - explicitly and openly stated, and mandated by their bylaws - is to generate this return on investment for the owners.

> By the way, EasyRSA still isn't that easy, but it's better than using OpenSSL directly.

The trouble with EasyRSA (and similar tools) is that they make decisions for you and restrict what's possible and how. For example, I would always use name constraints with private roots, for extra security. But you're right about OpenSSL; to use it directly requires a significant time investment to understand enough about PKI.

I tried to address this problem with documentation and templates. Here's a step by step guide for creating a private CA using OpenSSL, including intermediate certificates (enabling the root to be kept offline), revocation, and so on: https://www.feistyduck.com/library/openssl-cookbook/online/c... Every aspect is configurable, and here are the configuration templates: https://github.com/ivanr/bulletproof-tls/tree/master/private...

Doing something like this by hand is a fantastic way to learn more about PKI. I know I enjoyed it very much. It's much easier to handle because you're not starting from scratch.

Others in this thread have mentioned SmallStep's STEP-CA, which comes with ACME support: https://smallstep.com/docs/step-ca/getting-started That's definitely worth considering as well.

EDIT The last time I checked, Google's CA-as-a-service was quite affordable https://cloud.google.com/certificate-authority-service AWS has one too, but there's a high minimum monthly fee. Personally, if the budget allows for it, I would go with multiple roots from both AWS and GCP for redundancy.
