GPUs are in fact easier to reach high performance these days IMO. Sure, you gotta learn how to stride memory and possibly do it across workgroups, but those GPUs really have patterns that easily hit their specs (be it FLOPs or Memory Bandwidth)

GPUs are dumb, but that makes them kinda simpler for these kinds of simple tests.

CPUs, in particular the Thread ripper Pro, have very complex memory hierarchies.

Unless they experiment with NUMA mode (4 or 8 nodes maybe), I wouldn't expect much improvement. To max out the memory Bandwidth on a CPU, you really gotta understand MESI / cache snooping / false sharing, split up your accesses across the chip let's (easier to do with NUMA turned on) and code in a NUMA aware manner.

---------

I'm not saying GPUs are always better. But this particular test is really bloody simple and ideal for GPUs.

That depends entirely on their backgrounds. I myself do not. The status-quo here isn’t too different than anywhere else in the tech sector.

Many security engineers transition into infosec from related fields like IT, DevOps, Network Engineering, Product Engineering, or similar. This tends to work out well since security engineers work closely with all of those areas within an organization.
I had been considering reading Ulysses this year. Then found out this week it was the 100th anniversary so I started reading it last night. Not totally sure why I was so intimidated. Maybe Portrait of the Artist gave me an undeserved impression of what it would be like.

Nevertheless, if you were able to enjoy Kerouac's On the Road, you'll be able to enjoy Ulysses. They read similarly. Someone else here commented "enjoy it like a scramble down a hill" or something to that effect. Pace is very important.
You should probably demand rich dudes get proportional fines, that would solve the problem partially. Probably same irresponsible teen is also alpha testing a Tesla while his watching Netflix on the dashboard so no win if you move him from a Lambo in an Tesla.
This thread is about stop signs. That’s a common way for pedestrians and bicyclists to get hit when drivers ignore a safety mechanism because it’s mixing transportation modes, unlike someone going modestly over the speed limit on a controlled highway where everyone else is also in a protective steel cage with various safety mechanisms.
Also of note is their recent kickstarter / crowd-supply: https://www.crowdsupply.com/nabu-casa/home-assistant-yellow

It's basically an enclosure + some extra integrated hardware for zigbee (and supposedly "easy-to-add" z-wave).

The ecosystem is heavily "run it on a rasb-pi" anyway, so you're 99% of the way there just purchasing or repurposing a PI, but it wasn't that expensive to back their crowd-funding and I'm happy to support an attempt at an "official" configuration that can be purchased.

I use it slightly for its own capabilities, but mostly as a bridge to bring more devices to HomeKit compatibility.

eg: I was able to add my wifi-controllable pool pump to homeASSISTANT and it creates corresponding devices in homeKIT so I can make an iOS shortcut accessible to siri: "Hey Siri, clean the pool" which turns on the pool cleaner. It's kindof like living in the future. :-P

I also found recently a "chromecast => airplay" extension/addon which... bam... now the few chromecast devices I have show up as airplay sinks for audio (not airplay2, but airplay1 is convenient for where I've got them put).

...and I just got some Samba-mount thing so I can rip my DVD's and copy them over to `/Media/*.m4v` which I can then blast out via chromecast (nice b/c both my chromecast and home-assistant PI are wired, so it shouldn't be sucking up wifi bandwidth, and keeps me from having to set up a real ).

It _really_ needs a complete overhaul of how it's thought about (ie: configuration via yaml, confusing organization of extensions, addons, configs, better update management) ... I'm a developer and I still get lost in the mental model they expose via the UI, but it gets the job done and it's got a good ecosystem and community to help figure out how to get done what you're trying to do.
I might argue that all those small things are procrastination in disguise.
The only countries with higher median incomes than the US are Norway, UAE, Luxembourg, and Switzerland. UAE and Norway because oil, Luxembourg and Switzerland because they are tiny and very specialized.

The rest of the world can't afford as much, plenty of people will argue for humanitarian reasons that things should be lower cost to those countries which can't pay as much, and in order to sell in those other countries companies simply have to lower prices.

A similar thing happens with video games, movies, streaming services, etc. etc. etc. it's called price discrimination. (it is of course not universal, but it is still quite common for companies to lower their prices in markets which can't afford as much)
> You have a point. Sadly, they misunderstand what attracts more developers. It's all about the quality, not the quantity of features.

Unfortunately, people these days like more quantity than quality. Look at Rust. People love Rust. There are others nice, fast and safe languages out there, but Rust has one thing other do not: features, features and features. More and more features every new version.

Thanks, I get what you're saying here. Often times I find myself adding people to two circles or more. Although there is the option to create new circles I generally recommend keeping close to the existing circles that are created with each account.

On that point we also offer a quick/simple mechanism for sharing to specific contacts. So you're able to share to circles and/or specific contacts.

If you try the app, I would be keen to hear your feedback. Shoot me an email if that is the case.
Pics! or it didn't happen. j/k

These are the kind of classic "Spell checking. It's impotent!" type of situations. For long bits of text, I can see how somethings might slip through. When it's only 4 friggin words, and it's a campaign being slapped up on multiple billboards for everyone to see, one might think letting someone else review/approve would be a good idea. Thinking it might have actually done that and still nobody caught it is even more funny/sad.

This is common for large items, all kinds of products need special permits to move them due to their size.

I'm sure they knew, and had a mitigation plan in place. Almost sounds like there weren't a lot of options.. "this is such a large project that there are hardly any locations where this work is finished."

And even if the municipality were to pay for it "Rotterdam has also been declared the maritime capital of Europe. Shipbuilding and activity within that sector are therefore an important pillar for the municipality." Seems like a fee they would be willing to pay to hold that title, or would be required for it. How is it any different than a state subsidizing a business district to generate jobs and taxes?
The scrolling is clunky isn't it. Thanks for sharing. We're trying to find a balance between chunking up the content for when dads just have 2 minutes of free time with some of the quotes that are a bit longer.

Guide paywall, well, we offer the first guide for free so long as you register. The copy mentions that BUT it's not clear enough apparently. We'll need to work on this more. And then again, maybe the first guide is all free without registration but felt like the notice would help people choose the guide they wanted. Back to the drawing board on this one! Again, we should be clearer from the get go

Content of the guides: I see what you mean. 80% of the content is written in collaboration with parenting pros for the app, 20% is reformatted with the help of the original writers. Sure, you could find similar content online but it wouldn't be written specifically 'for dads' and we know that most dads don't look for that content online because it's a flood of crappy content written for mums. We're trying to be very specific here.

Thanks for your feedback!
Agreed. Sounds like something a person would say after lamenting having children, paints fathers as helpless and pathetic. Personally, it's one the most rewarding challenges that one can step up to.

>The sad part is that we could actually solve some real problems by coordinating collective action on, say, starting a new city that's designed around non-motorized transit within the city limits.

I have been dreaming of doing something like this lately! The issue is where would we do it? How would we get people to move there? Who will fund it?
Totally agree. I don’t understand why the author couldn’t just say that Drupal is for a different use case. Rather than label a whole framework, the people who build it, work with it, and use it, as basically “incorrect”.
Man, how cool is this. I don't think people really understand just yet what fly.io is doing with Phoenix/Elixir and how it is changing deployment and scaling for multi-region, real-time apps. At this point, I'm just trying to figure out something worth building to take advantage of this technology!

A couple links have been mentioned already, but I'll add two more that got me really excited about Phoenix + Fly:

1. Chris McCord talking about joining Fly.io and all the cool stuff they're working on: https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/62

2. Kurt Mackey talking about Fly.io before Chris joined the company: https://podcast.thinkingelixir.com/56

And in case anyone is interested, this is the Phoenix Framework homepage: https://www.phoenixframework.org/

What a time to be a software engineer, Phoenix + Elixir + Liveview + Tailwind + Fly.io is just so, so exciting.
Can't wait for the Tesla apologists to come over and tell everyone that "it doesn't bother them that much". Tesla's FSD is a bad joke that has gone on for too long.
anti Musk and anti Tesla astroturfing is a tale as old as time. A lot of it has always been rooted in people with financial interests in Tesla doing poorly

I always flag these topics. The comments are nearly verbatim identical to the last 20 times FSD gets posted and nothing about the conversation is interesting
The intellectual part maybe but not the praxis. Some confidence, some unwillingness to stop searching for causes, some taste foe elegance, some ability to simulate things in the abstract space of solutions. The combination is as elusive to some as perceiving the mood of a room is to others.

The most widely used directory DMOZ.org was closed in 2018 or so, simply because AOL were fed up with maintaining its content. Google didn't have much to do with that. In fact, the Google search bot benefits from having high-quality curated links available as much as anyone else does.

A software engineer does not have to deal with surviving on a median personal income of $36K. Or know what it's like to have to stay in a toxic job because it's difficult and risky to find a new one. Or what it's like to suffer health consequences from years of manual labor. And probably a lot of other things I don't realize because I never had to deal with it. I work very hard at my job, but I know I have these blindspots which is why I consider myself privileged.

So, provovactive but still sincere question, are we still holding media and journalists to standards of integrity, or is this just the pretense we're all agreeing to as the set of rules where we know the game is to break them without conseqeuences?

It's unsatisfying to score points on Vice (or anyone really), but as a sample, I'd wonder if this larger question would benefit from being aired. Are we post-integrity?

I don't see a huge implosion happening. What will tank Tesla's stock is when competitors catch up and pass them. Two years ago, Tesla was the only viable option. Today, buyers have a lot of options and with Tesla's continued problems with quality and service, that will mean other makers will continue to capture more market share.

On the autonomous driving side, Waymo and other teams are years ahead of Tesla. Elon's been able to convince the market otherwise and so far they've bought it. In the next 1-2 years as self-driving cars get deployed onto the roads this will be undeniable.

I don't see a big, Theranos style implosion. The market will slowly grow concerned, there will be a "correction" which Tesla stans will ignore and then will be a slow decline with dips each time competitors release strong numbers. By 2023-2024, Tesla's market cap will have fallen 70-80% down to that of other car makers.

I think the article is making a point through hyperbole. Citations have become a scoreboard on the back end. On the front end they've become more important than the content itself.

A bad citation is viewed as some sort of academic crime. Bad content -- if actually judged -- is largely ignored.

Perhaps I'm just scarred from my student days when I put a superscript at the end of the wrong sentence, which left the following sentence uncited gasp. A big deal was made of this that I was plagiarizing the material. They were also upset that I wasn't visibly concerned enough about this high crime and that I only viewed it as a typo. Seriously, I added the superscript one sentence early. There was never any feedback on the work itself.
Oops, it was in another reply and i didn't notice it.
The last time Peter Norvig’s Sudoku solver came up there was a discussion about how some people use the same design to try out new programming languages. I need to get on that.

On the flip side of this, I always end up wearing the performance hat on every project I’m on, and one thing I keep meaning to do is to write myself a benchmark/test suite that asserts some things I “know” about the behavior of the language. Why? So that I can run it again on every release to make sure that the slow but pretty solution didn’t suddenly get 10x faster or the fast but ugly one didn’t get 2x slower to fix a security hole, narrowing or flipping the heuristic for selecting the correct solution. Speaking of, I really miss jsperf even though half the benchmarks there were misleading.
Why is this software still legal? First the stop sign thing, now this.
It really excels in allowing everyone to do 3D modeling and rendering for free, legally.

Perhaps you can afford a license to all these ‘different 3D programs’ you are jumping between but not everyone can or wants to.
I did that too but those PCs are just stupidly massive for the purpose. Raspberry Pi 4s don’t require SD cards any more so the storage issue is moot. My RPi sits next to my router now, you wouldn’t even know it’s there unless you looked closely.
They do, but it's difficult because instruments aren't built for it, and people don't like it. You're free to use any tone you like to make the music that you want to make.

I'm sorry, but that still does not make sense to me. The US (meaning really, the American people) is expected both to innovate and subsidize the world? Come on, now. If the US develops it, why shouldn't the US benefit the most? If prices keep going the way they have over the past 40 years, we're not going to be able to afford all these fancy treatments and drugs, anyway.

Imagine a corporation developing a product, then marketing it for sale, yet not only not giving its employees a corporate discount, but making them pay more for it. Again, how does that make sense?
+1 on this. Years ago I looked at it a bit but the interface was only for people who knew what they are doing and my laptop was way too slow anyway.

This year, I’m giving it another try with the infamous Doughnut tutorial and I’m very impressed. Once I got a general idea on the thing, I’m able to navigate the interface and figure out how to do stuff without too much effort. It’s incredibly powerful piece of software(it has scripting and visual programming capabilities) with a very healthy community.

Oh an my Macbook Air M1 is more than enough to get it going. Disney doesn’t need to get scared just yet but having access to such a powerful software on such a portable device makes you feel powerful.
Anti musk hyperbole in a Tesla thread, how predictable
It's lovely to read about people doing things that're out of the ordinary to learn & explore because it's what they want to do.

We have too many people who don't like stuff like this, who say it's "too hard", and that people shouldn't do hard things (just see any thread on the Internet about people running their own email servers). It's wonderful to see someone sharing something non-trivial in a way that makes it ever so slightly more attainable to the rest of us.
I've not tried it because the site is down, but a requirement for paired users to have something in common - like being a hn reader - works really well for these things! Omegle's main chat is really spammy, but if you add "gardening" or whatever as a requested common topic, you're likely to get an actual conversation.

Hi Chris,

Is there any chance this[0] could be reopened?

The problem I have with a JS hook is that if you do a "socket |> push_event() |> push_redirect()" the hook is actually destroyed before writing the cookie.

Currently I'm using "Process.send_after(self())" to delay the redirect, it's not that ideal.

Too many people that I know are cooking every day, using vacuum instead of roomba, doing those small innocent things that "everybody does".
Then at the end of the day they don't have time for activities that have real potential to bring more value.

Thats why I "invest into my learning" by eating ready meals, having roomba for quite a small room, paying dry cleaners instead of ironing shirts myself, however ridiculously that sounds to others.
Yeah it's better to spend $80 or so on an off lease small form factor desktop. They don't really use that much more energy than a Pi but are much faster and more stable with real SATA storage.
Solving competitive programming problems is essentially solving hard combinatorial optimization problems. Throwing a massive amount of compute and gradient descent at the problem has always been possible. If I'm not mistaken what this does is reduce the representation of the problem to a state where it can run gradient descent and then tune parameters. The real magic is in finding structurally new approaches. If anything I'd say algorithms and math continue to be the core of programming. The particular syntax or level of abstraction don't matter so much.
