You’re right. It was what, 2x what the M1 Mac did? If you need GPU you can’t get it on the Mac side.

On the other hand it’s needed. The Intel integrated GPU was 1/2 what the M1 Max did. Apple could theoretically add a discrete GPU too, but they won’t.
Peak performance is still interesting, no matter what power it draws. Keep in mind that if Apple could make their thing faster by cranking up the TDP, they absolutely would do so, at least in the MacBook Pro, Mac mini, and iMac where it hardly matters, if not in the Air. And perhaps they will do so in a future revision. We're due for new parts from Apple pretty soon.
Would really like this to rate restaurants (for my own remembrance) I order from on Uber Eats, Doordash, etc. Alas, the bookmarklet doesn't work with my first port of call, Uber Eats, just yet. Will be keeping an eye on this.
A good first guess determined by an algorithm would feel less like cheating and more like a 'pro tip', IMO.

My wife plays and has tried strategies like focusing on high frequency letters or maximizing vowels used in the first word, for example. It would be neat to know if one of these approaches yielded more information than others.
Every day that goes by more and more software isn't using rendering compatible with the model of rdp/x forwarding and requires full copies of buffers. The best you can do in this case is probably waypipe as it does some intelligent compression and buffer management but its a young project.
These contrived examples don't seem that helpful. Brakes failed? Throw the car into park or reverse. Pull the emergency/parking brake. Swerve sharply enough to spin out. Honk to alert pedestrians (which a self-driving car would have seen long ago and already started slowing down anyway). If all else fails, build the car so that a head-on collision into a barrier at speeds where pedestrians could be present would not be fatal to the occupants.

In the real world I have a hard time imagining a scenario where a case like this would actually come up.
I can't really speak for the entire nation ( I can't even speak for my neighbors ), but I am sure not approving of my representatives.. I do, however, lack in willingness/drive/money to push for someone else, because that is the part of the equation that makes it genuinely hard to remove an entrenched bureaucrat.

And that does not even begin to discuss how easy local party representatives make it to run in IL.

I'm gonna ask the question again, since you completely dodged it: Can you cite a case where someone has been convicted under 22.05(a) for driving drunk on private property without actually having hit anyone?

I know what the difference is between indictment and conviction, stop trying to act like this holier than thou. The 'fact pattern' of drunk driving on private property isn't a rare pattern, it shouldn't be difficult to dig up a conviction under that statute if it has been succesful.

>Reckless endangerment does not require you actually hit anyone. Where did you get that from?

No shit. I got it from my example, where the driver didn't hit anyone. That's what we were both talking about, a drunk driver on their own private property behind a fence. When did I ever say they hit someone? In my example they didn't, which is why I asked for a case where they didn't.

The sodomy law is an example of how overzealous prosecutors can prosecute "a ham sandwich" on whatever they want but it means jack in terms of whether they can actually convict someone, even if the exact letter of the law suggests they can.

>A prosecutor's job is to make their case based on the facts, the law, and the ability to draw parallels from other cases.

Sadly many prosecutors care more about convictions (or just dragging someone through the system, conviction or not) than any of those. And some care more about convictions than even justice, to the point they will imprison people for victimless crimes. A bad prosecutor is one of the most dangerous and despised members of society.
Funny you should say that because one of the issues with Catalina was MacOS forcing all headsets, airpods included, to use the terrible default codec I was explaining. Moreover, this then forces all other audio data on the system down to the same terrible quality [1]. The official response was that this was "expected behavior".

This is probably also the explanation for annoyance #3 in the article.

One consequence of this I haven’t seen mentioned yet: price matching at competing retailers may no longer work.

I often end up purchasing items at local stores, which tend to have higher prices, but happily price match to items “Shipped and Sold by Amazon”. I can see how it can be hard to abide by pricing from any random third-party seller, but evidently even the “Sold by Amazon” items were third-party anyway.
That’s not true of the current Macs though.

I still have a 2011 era MacBook that I can use, and was very pleasant to use until an OS update a couple of years ago.

But that was because I was able to upgrade the RAM, the SSD, and replace the battery.

None of those things are possible with macs from the last few years, so their longevity is much more likely to resemble phones than older macs.
Steep Rise in Educational Gag Orders
Oof, I used to work with one of the few workshops in the world that could produce small batches of parts down to 0.0001mm or something a bit ridiculous.

Their pricing and supply times factored in a pretty significant failure rate, and we were basically asking them for highly precise screws and nuts for a couple thousand each.
> So, I will try to take a new brand and after a few days my symptoms will come back because the pills don't have the L-Carnitine like it says and there is no one to make sure it does.

Unlikely. What's more likely is that something else interferes with the absorption.

Anyway, don't just take my word at face value, have a sample tested: liquid chromatography can give you an answer quickly. Also, don't buy on amazon where cheap fakes and inventory comingling make the problem unsolvable.

Grab a monster energy drink: content in L-Carnitine is guaranteed,
Yes, the original reference is not Portal. I don't even know what Portal 2 looks like not being a gamer, but the spaaaaace reference is much older than Portal 2 and possibly older than the people that created Portal 2.
Well the point is that they're neck and neck while being a fab behind. If the fab catches up they might be greatly ahead. Its a big if but it adds context.

> During the Cinebench R23 multi-core test, the Alder Lake laptop was consistently in the 100-watt range, with spikes between 130 and 140 watts. We haven’t tested the power draw of the M1 Pro/Max ourselves, but AnandTech did using Cinebench R23 and found that the M1 Max’s power draw was 39.7 watts versus over 100 for the 11th-gen MSI GE76 Raider.

Cinebench is a pure CPU test though, so I feel the comparison is more or less apples-to-apples.
For transistors, power = frequency x voltage^2 x capacitance and since voltage is proportional to frequency it means power ~= frequency^3. That's why Alder Lake is quite efficient at low clocks but crazy power hungry when you let it turbo.

I replaced an older MBP with the M1 air.

It ran circles around the old machine despite being the lowest spec. Battery is light years ahead. And it doesn’t even have a fan. So it’s dead silent. Never gets hot unlike the old Intel. There isn’t any mechanical component to fail except the hinge and the keyboard.

I was worried I might regret not waiting for the higher spec M1s. Now that just seems totally unnecessary for me.

PS: Work later gave me a high spec 2019 Intel MBP. It’s slower, louder, and much hotter than my Air. And at least 2.5x the price. Amazing.
This is a really bad summary of my judgments. I took the entire thing with a very simple set of rules: 1) the vehicle must protect it's human passengers first and foremost, 2) the vehicle must avoid killing anyone if there are no human passengers, 3) the vehicle must not make changes to it's path if there are people in both paths.

The breakdown says a lot about the law, my gender preferences, age preferences, fitness preferences, literally things I absolutely did not take into account. It is a bad methodology because it assumes the reasoning behind my decision is as complicated as the game itself.
This focus on raw performance makes sense when comparing desktop workstations but for laptops it misses the point and I hope it goes out of fashion.

My MacBook Air runs Jetbrains + a couple containers just fine for almost a couple of work days on battery. Is this i9 faster? Yes but at a 6 hour battery life and 2.9Kg of weight it might as well be a desktop (just save money and buy/build a better desktop or get a console until PC parts are cheaper again).

e: a cursory look suggests that laptop is also around $800 (AUD) more expensive than the (complete overkill for most) M1 it's comparing to, this is absolutely not a win.
Seems like Graviton may be there, but of course Amazon isn’t going to sell those to anyone.
Are you suggesting that people who go to a strip club need counseling?
Yeah, that's all I immediately think of when I think of Neil Young. Griping about mp3 quality and nonsense no average listener cared about. He's probably very pleased to be off some streaming mumbojumbo site he already hates, and got to put out some positive PR about his 'principles' at the same time. Whatever. Anyone who cares about his music either owns hard copies or finds it on other things like youtube heh

IMO the ethical choice is to always save human passengers, never save animals at the cost of humans, and never save property at the cost of lives.

Hopefully this turns into a situation where consumers and technologists are the winners. Pat Gelsinger was pretty clear on how he felt about the situation with Apple when he joined Intel and it seems clear we'll see Intel continue to improve. Ultimately this competition should product better products and better prices.

If we rewrite based on the SO answer it could also have been named "Windows Emulation Layer for <whatever>".

Self-heating plasmas offer hope for energy from fusion
Oh Amazon has been selling garbage for years, but only for “commodity” items that the average user can’t test for quality.

Example: All coin cells (regardless of brand/seller) on Amazon are fake. These cells last 2-4 months (long enough that most people won’t bother to contact support) when the same model from an electronics distributor like Mouser lasts ~8 years as advertised.

> people may want to limit online shopping only to small ticket items

Oddly enough, I’ve had much better luck with big ticket items on Amazon since they’re much harder to fake and because they get special treatment (brand registration) from Amazon. But for small stuff Amazon is just AliExpress with faster shipping.
Why hospitals are denying transplants for patients who aren’t vaccinated
Perhaps, although that's assuming every doctor in every ER at every hospital in the country has the same minimum criteria. Somehow, I doubt that is the case.
Not sure at what level you want the answer and others are answering at other layers so I'll cover this one. Ultimately, the faster clock means you're discharging and charging things at the gate level more often. Changing this state expends energy. More changing, more energy used per unit time, more power necessary.
There was a bizarre story some years back about the Venera landers picking up signs of life:

According to the Russian news service Ria Novosti, Leonid Ksanfomaliti, a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences who worked on unmanned Soviet missions to Venus during the 1970s and '80s, has written a new article in the journal Solar System Research. In the article, he calls attention to several objects photographed by the Venera-13 landing probe, a spacecraft that landed on Venus in 1982. The objects — including features described as a disc and a scorpion — appear to change locations from one photo to the next. "Let's boldly suggest that the objects' morphological features would allow us to say that they are living," Ksanfomaliti stated, according to Ria Novosti. ... In one image, the Venera-13 landing probe is seen parked on the rocky Venusian foreground, and an object shaped somewhat like a crab stands inches from the probe. In another image, also taken by Venera-13, this crab-like object appears to be in a different location.

The claim was debunked; the evidence consists of image artifacts or mechanical pieces from the landers themselves: https://www.livescience.com/18083-life-venus-russian-claim.h...
I was talking about video playback tests. Unless they disabled discrete GPUs during the test,a laptop using 3080Ti for video playback is not going to be efficient.
Of course. What does that have to do with my comment? Spotify wants to carry Joe Rogan, and they also want to carry Neil Young. Neil Young is the one who wants Spotify to choose.

I’m guessing this is the first laptop Anandtech could get their hands on with this new chip.

That said I’ve been out of the PC space for quite a while. Do mobile discrete GPUs greatly draw much power when mostly idle (such as general desktop work)? Did others give up on switching the discrete GPU on and off a needed as Apple used to do (and gave up on IIRC)?

With a boycott you have to be happy with either result. Either you change and we still do business with you or you don’t change and I take my business elsewhere. Yes, it involves an ultimatum but both results are successful outcomes. The only way you lose is if you are unhappy with the result of your ultimatum and I haven’t heard any indication of that. I think it worked out just fine for both parties. Neil is almost 80 and decades past his prime. I doubt he cares at all about the money, it was always out of principal for him.

I have a M1 in an entry-level Macbook Air I bought for $1000. Is Intel really having to compare its top of the line i9 to this chip now? Wow, I knew they were a bit behind but this is incredible. Price-wise, like you said, i9's are expensive.

Worse, the Microsoft ARM SQ1 in the Surface Pro X performs like 1/3rd the benchmark performance as the M1. I know synthetic benchmarks aren't very meaningful but we have some X's at work and I've played with them and they are all unusually and annoying slow while my Air feels like I'm using a high-wattage desktop.

The value of the M1 Macbook Air is pretty wild right now. The only thing keeping Intel's stock price above water is that Apple will never license this out to Windows laptop makers and Windows has monopolistic lock-ins so not everyone can just switch to Apple, especially businesses, so Intel is safe in the Windows world for now.
I don’t think this is going to happen, but: It would be extremely funny if Apple strapped a heavy copper heatsink and a turbo fan to an M1 and just overclocked the ever-lasting crap out of it.

The crazy thing about using a Macbook Pro (with an M1 Pro or M1 Max CPU) is that, in single-threaded performance, it's really no faster than a dippy little Macbook Air. And at the end of the day, single-thread performance is more effective than multicore! TBH I think this tradeoff is the right one (that is, not overclocking Macbook Pros), but when the iMac Pro and the Mac Pro roll around… why not? Just go for it.
> Despite the downsides, there’s not really anything better and more accessible than ads.

Ads may be a "better" way for a website owner to to make money, but they do nothing at all to promote quality content, or improve the quality of a platform. It's not as if "knowing what a person is looking at" does either of those things either. I think creating a platform for useful and engaging communities/communication and getting rich by exploiting your userbase are opposing interests and for major social media platforms the only reason they attempt to do the first thing is so that they can do the second.

Same processor really just a yield thing.
Apple (if they were willing to expose a more wild side) should make an "M1 Pro Max Unlocked" board (or something like that) and just sell it as a bare, microATX board. It could cost exactly the same as the Mac mini for all I care, but if PC builders could use it in crazy cases and with liquid (or even liquid nitrogen) cooling, that would be so cool.

Batteries (as energy storage devices) are a great example of something I wouldn't want to be counterfeit. A poorly made battery has a better chance of starting a fire. Probably not going to happen with AAAs, but larger cells like 18650s might be worth a worry.

Can confirm those video cards draw a lot of power. I have a system76 with an nvidia 1060 (or some such). I can turn it off in and my battery life improves quite substantially. It doesn’t matter what applications are running it draws a lot. Maybe it’s a Linux problem.

On the plus side with that card and the machine plugged in it actually plays steam games quite well.
Imagine going back 10 or 15 years and telling everyone that in 2022 it is newsworthy when an Intel laptop chip is actually faster than an Apple Mac chip. I feel like most folks would have thought it sounded like bad Apple fan fiction.
> never listened to a single episode
Then maybe that’s why you don’t understand why people would listen. I only listen to Rogan occasionally but he’s a decent interviewer and does long (3-4 hour) interviews. Many guests are mainstream personalities like Neil deGrasse Tyson but he also invites people the mainstream shuns.
Yeah, IMO Discord (putting aside the whole open/closed software thing) is a pretty good upgrade on IRC. My problem is when a community that either used to have or would have had a forum 10 years ago is now using Discord as the primary communication hub.

LiberaPay uses paypal and stripe: "What payment methods are available?
The available payment methods depend on which payment processors are supported by the recipient. If a payment is processed by Stripe, then most credit and debit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) are accepted, as well as SEPA Direct Debits (for Euro donations only). If a payment is through PayPal, then it's possible to pay in various ways, however the donor needs to have or create a PayPal account."
The program is the proof. It's rigorous in the sense that it's an exhaustive tree search (with lower and upper bounds used for pruning), without any heuristics like "pick a word that leaves the smallest set remaining in the worst case" or anything that amounts to "let's not explore that part of the tree; hopefully there will be nothing of significance there". (Also, it's someone's blog—the author's page says "My name is Alex Selby. I am a mathematician living in Cambridge, UK"—just happens to use Mediawiki.)
