> Second, the recourse to two M1 Max chips fused into a M1 Ultra means TSMC’s 5 nm process has reached its upper limit. It also means TSMC’s 3 nm process isn’t ready, probably not shipping until late 2022. Apple, by virtue of their tight partnership with TSMC has known about and taken precautions against the 3 nm schedule, hence the initially undisclosed M1 Max UltraFusion design wrinkle, likely an early 2021 decision.

"recourse"... "design wrinkle"... wouldn't something like UltraFusion be an architectural goal at the outset, rather than something grafted on later? Feels pretty fundamental.

I have a vague memory that AMD has/had something similar -- the idea what their entire range would be the same basic core, fused together into larger and larger configurations. Seems like a smart move to concentrate engineering effort. But chip design not even slightly my area.
In the USA, there has been a constant campaign of negligence and outright sabotage of our school districts. I feel sorry for the kids that are stuck in these systems without any way to escape the endless pressure, petty rules, violence, and prejudice.
Thinking back at my childhood, I think I was lucky enough to have a father who could program Basic on a ZX Spectrum (which stated all the important keywords on its rubbery keycaps!), but not lucky enough to have a parent who knew how to answer questions such as "How do you make a program on a computer from the '90s?".

Maybe, these were some things I lacked the most in my early training:

- Documentation: in the second half of the '90s the Web was too young to provide docs or even answers to my doubts. The open source community was confined to universities and there was little chance for my parents to know how to access a BBS.

- Tools that give a child agency without the need to read documentation: most things I could do as a child were because I either had clear examples of how to do them, or because the tools themselves used visual UX paradigms that any curious human could grow their skills by experimenting. Kids can devour technical manuals, but keep in mind that not all kids (nor their parents) speak English, and this can seriously limit their agency.

- Free (or even just accessible) professional tools to move on once I had mastered their watered-down for-kids cousins. Dad knew about interpreted programming languages, but had he known the word "compiler" (or "synthesizer" for that matter), I could have mastered them much earlier.

- More guidance. Curious kids can do anything, but if there's someone leading the way or offering a benchmark, they can really bloom early. A young cousin of mine, displaying surprising sauvant traits, is lucky enough to have artsy and technical parents, and I can see how far he's going!!

Speaking of the proposed language, I'm not sure kids would particularly like LISP like languages. But when I was a kid I wouldn't have cared, had I known someone knowledgeable.
With how pretty much every platform has "avatars", that the user can customize, I think it would be fun just getting one assigned to you.

As someone who finally bit the bullet and scrapped/curbed 2 old iMacs, yeah. It hurt a lot. Perfectly good, well-calibrated 21.5” and 27” monitors just reduced to paper weights. Plucked the ram/HDD’s and sent them on their way. I looked into every possible option for them. Such a waste.

Voting in Washington is really abhorrent. I read the last Republican Governor Nominee's bio and platform in the voting guide and was just surprised that he thought he was qualified to be Governor in a state with 7 million people. I don't really see why solid blue states or solid red states can not be an opportunity to innovate on platform and see what works, instead it seems qualified candidates just don't exist or give up

CISO - and IS overall - is actually much more people-focused than most realize. You'd think you're hacking away and/or find vulnerabilities all the time, but in reality - at least in my experience -, you spend most of your times fixing the easy stuff and selling the measures to both management and your users. Quite a few people I know (including me) tried to get into IS with a good technical skillset, but it turned out that what we really needed was patience and people knowledge.

Of course there are pentesting companies that provide a far more hacker-like job, but even then, it's still a lot of report writing and explaining.
Specialized kid features are less important, even to kids, than the "boring" adult features like reliability, documentation, examples, support, libraries, and so on.

TFA's experience mirrors my own: when I started programming, people kept trying to get me to use tools that promised to make my life easier (basic, logo, apple script). Without exception, they made my life harder, because their gimmick added less value than their lack of "production grade" polish took away. C was a breath of fresh air -- not because I had a fetish for segfaults and the clockwise spiral rule, but because good APIs and documentation and examples and debuggers were available, and that was much more important.

Today the situation is reversed: I primarily code in python which has sugary syntax, doesn't enforce types, has poor debug/profiling/ui tooling, and still struggles with multithreading 20 years after the death of Dennard scaling. However, it's the lingua franca of the ML/AI space, and that matters more to me than all of its many shortcomings put together.

Ecosystem > language. Every time. It's true for kids, it's true for adults, and I bet it's true for space aliens, too.
Lots of "chronic" issues probably have sources like that, yes. And we often do know that we don't know why exactly they happen.
Looking at the diff[1], this seems to remove Yandex-, Odnoklassniki-, and Mail.Ru-related bundled bookmarks and extensions (that apparently exist in some build configurations?), if this removes the search option as well it does not seem obvious.

Wait, are you saying factorization of polynomials is in P? That doesn't feel right since factoring integers has not been shown to be in P (yet).
> How would Google know which postings are fraudulent and which aren't?

Oh, that's the best part. Google doesn't have to. DoorDash and GrubHub know. So Google can offer to derank all their listings and offerings or they can police them themselves.

"In two weeks, Google will be taking action against companies that regularly interject their own phone numbers in place of actual brick-and-mortar locations in an attempt to use SEO to siphon off sales. We look forward to our partners policing their listings to ensure all colistings are voluntary."
I have a pretty risk tolerant personality. Cutting down trees is not for everyone. It takes planning and skills. If you live your life on a keyboard, you probably shouldn't jump into cutting down trees to start.
I nearly wept when I looked up some video editing techniques for Shotcut, and saw some from a channel with titles like "Fade in/out Audio in Shotcut in 1min" and the length of the vid was genuinely 1:08 or something.

So many tutorials on Youtube are front-loaded with a long ad advertising the creator's paid courses.
I was referring to understanding (more or less) the whole stack, down to the hardware. Getting started is probably easier today (because of the Internet) than how it was... back in the day, where you need to have some kind of physical contact and where you lived mattered a lot. But anyway, this wasn't my main point.
What you're describing is a lack of impulse control, not anything related to a gym membership specifically.
What’s Known About the BA.2 Variant
wgpu is based around the WebGPU standard, which is expected to replace WebGL in web browsers for 3D graphics. wgpu (and WebGPU) is closer to DX12/Vulkan/Metal than OpenGL/DX11. Although it's much easier to use than Vulkan/DX12, abstracting away things like synchronization, memory management. I use wgpu in my D application through wgpu-native (offers a C header to interface with languages other than Rust) and it's been a great experience overall.
If a tool is presented that could fill a need that I have, knowing about other alternatives is helpful. It's easier to evaluate multiple options in the beginning rather than change directions in the future.

Multiple dies integrated with an interconnect on a single chip is how you build big processors these days. AMD has been doing the same thing for years, and I’m sure the largest M2 will as well.

What I find interesting is that there’s no desktop Mac with an M1 Pro, leaving a gap between the entry-level M1 in the Mac mini, and the Mac Studio with its M1 Max.

For those who might not remember the full lineup: the M1 Pro and M1 Max have the same CPU part, the main difference is the number of GPU cores. For many CPU-bound applications, the Pro is all you need.

I wonder if this is an intentional strategy to sell the more expensive product or if it’s supply related.
Interesting. Your post led me to [1]. Even including all the (mostly Russian) icebreakers, the number of nuclear-powered vessels is quite small.

I always try to go the website. But I think adding some murk is that some restaurants use third party order systems

like by door dash via the generic: https://order.online/en-US/

For example this is a doordash site (set up by the restaurant):
https://order.online/business/-54797/en-US

A restaurant tried to call me about an order, but coming from a toll free number I ignored it. I asked them why they didn't have a local number. They could only call me back via the door dash number as my number wasn't provided to the restaurant. It was weird.

Around here the local restaurant POS vendor exposed their interface online and made and app for pickups. I'll use that directly if I'm ordering from a place that uses it. Thats a little fraught too, because the staff has to learn to use that too (staff has to have some training on turing online ordering on or off..which they sometimes have forgotten to do)

Show HN: I made a site featuring a chronology of news sources for a news event
Note that I'm not a developer by trade and I still consider this a v0.1 with a bunch of bugs (in fact it's so v0.1 that the login button doesn't do anything and there's some hardcoded values in there. Bonus points if you spot them).

In essence, the site gathers references from wikipedia articles and presents them chronologically. A couple of specific examples below:

* 2022 Rusiian Invasion of Ukraine: http://hindsite.info/narrative/4271

* 2022 South Korean Presidential Election: http://hindsite.info/narrative/3017

And the features I'm particularly happy with:

* Filter references by language

* Filter references by type (video, forum, article)

* Filter reference by source (click on the domain to the right of the link)

* Blue bell next to a reference shows it was added today.

* Modal to display youtube videos

* Modal to display tweets

I would love to hear you opinions on this as a general source of information and if you would use it. If so, I've a huge roadmap set out, and I'll most likely be able to convince some devs to join me.

Parroting my about section:

This website was created out of frustration with the current incarnation of news on the internet.

On social media today we are supplied with an undifferentiated feed of individual news articles, videos and images from different times in multiple news stories. This causes unecessary rehashing of a story "It's already been debunked! Look!" and even the sharing of information that has since been proven to be false.

What is being built here is an attempt at aggregating relevant articles of significant events in a chronological fashion. So as to be somewhat of a clear, if not definitive source of aggregated information.

We hope to bring many more features to you over time that will help make sense of information on the internet.
When using package.json, does npm intercept a script containing "rm -rf" and translate it to something different?
I don't think such an absolutism holds water: great ideas don't exist in vacuums. There is no magic bullet which makes startups successful: lots of things, big and small, need to come together to make it.

> when you say driven by ideology, you mean they are neo-nazis ?

Could be all over the ideological spectrum. Surely quite a few Neo-Nazis, yes, but: If you're a fervent anti-Nazi who sees Putin as rather equivalent to a fascist (I pretty much do; a kind of Duginian pan-Slavo-fascism), you could AFAICS go fight against the Russians on those grounds too.
Don't think that's true. I lived in the PNW and people are even colder than the east coast. I remember in college the first time I invited friends over for my bday, people started asking me what we'd be doing. I was like wdym, it's a party, we're going to hang out, talk, drink, etc. anyway...
I was getting constant praise, and was ranked #1 in my group. This of course did not translate to raises, for which I was getting in the low %2 range. Even when business was doing well before the pandemic, raises were meager. Promotions were always "3 years" away. I eventually had to quit and move to another job to get paid market rate. It's strange that companies think that they can pay new-hires market rate and give up on the employees that made their business.

You can definitely lie with statistics here.

The "Always Free" egress change is probably going to mostly affect the large pool of free and near-free cloud users. So a very large number of people who "have Google Cloud accounts" may see costs go down.

But the costs will go up for all the customers heavily investing in Google Cloud and using Google Cloud for storage of a lot of data. So the overall outcome will be more money for Google, in an update that claims a cost reduction for a large number of users.

Now compute what kind of virtual aperture size it takes to get this resolution without being diffraction limited.

Edit: I did it, about 25000km (for light with a wavelength of 500nm), or twice the radius of the earth. That actually suggests it could be doable with a constellation of telescopes in high orbit.
Biggest pain of package.json to me is having to be crammed on one line. Slap in a conditional and now we have a messy thing to read, compared to its multiline counterpart.

That just extends the limit, the limit still exists. Because of that limit, traffic reduces the range you can commute within that limit.

I don't think "self-driving" rv's do anything to revolutionize the housing market. What they do is revolutionize travel (it's like having a private luxery train car that can go almost anywhere.) Parking an RV can be an expensive and competive in and around urban areas (speaking from vanlife experience.) Having a self-driving RV driving around all night while you sleep also isn't cost effective and won't scale.

What I see as a revolution in the rv/housing market would be affordable, all eletric RVs with sufficient solar capacity to recharge their range over the course days. Combine this with starlink and/or 5g and you create cheaply location flexible housing.

In terms of ergonomics, I'm more a fan of the fluent style [1] over flow-aware typing with guard blocks. I've never heard of till not but I presume you mean that's like where you have like

foo: Optional[Foo]
if foo is None:
return some_error_handler()
bar = foo.qux() # the above guard "upgrades" O[Foo] to Foo

For me the real reason I love the ergonomics of the Rust-style "monads [2]" over Unions is that it lets you generically operate on each of 3 orthogonal parts: the value, the error, and the container. Optional or Union[T, E] don't quite hit the same way because you end up having to do more contortions to deal with managing the happy path vs sad path. What ends up often happening is without a container, your type "leaks" into other methods - you start ending up with functions that expect a Union[SomethingMoreSpecific, E], instead of just letting the Result.map(T->U) handle it.

Also specifically in Python, the type system is kind of weak (especially those bundled with Pycharm), and a lot of functional operations which ought to be more strongly typed end up with their types erased for whatever reason. In particular functools.partial seems to discard type information more than I'd like. The Result python package [3] doesn't run into this problem near to the same degree.

1] https://martinfowler.com/bliki/FluentInterface.html

2] I find this term frustrating not only because it's infamously ineffable, but also because there appear to be disagreement whether Rust's containers are actual monads or not, leading me to dub what I call the "Engineer's Monad" which is a generic container you can map and flatmap over, even if isn't strictly an Applicative.

Make has been around for decades, and with good reason. I've enjoyed watching the grunts and gulps and whatevers appear as the New Shiny Thing, become complicated and collapse under their own weight as people struggle with overly complex configs, as I quietly do the thing that has always worked and has not changed in forever.

I've sometimes wanted to order food ahead of time at local restaurants and pick it up but when I see a poorly branded ordering form on a web site with a generic domain name I've got little faith my order is going to be processed at all, never mind correctly.

(... even if it is on the up-and-up there is still the concern that the restaurant doesn't have good processes in place to handle online orders. Years ago I tried online ordering from a local sub shop which handled in-store orders so well one could imagine it being the subject of a business school case study and they screwed up my online order because it didn't fit in their process.)

It may really be the restaurant that contracts with some web site to put up an ordering form, maybe the whole thing is a scam. Either way I just don't do it unless I really know online ordering is effective.

Pretty convincing writeup. I've only used makefiles when compiling C / C++ but lately I'm finding even those are moving to CMAKE with makefiles becoming less and less common.
IDK I think it's kind of cool. I don't see this as being much hackier than any other compiler pass that looks for a pattern and inserts or removes code. Is it any hackier than totally randomizing memory placements?

Obviously C and C++ are dumpster fires for these sorts of bugs, but this seems like a reasonable approach.
My experience with Brave Search has been fantastic as well. I also like the UI much more than any other search engine I've used.

It's not supposed to be good, it is a historical curiosity based on the prevalent beliefs at the time. It can be discussed without dismissing it just because its original motivation was largely racist.
Incidentally, there's a rumor that the iPhone 14 is going to use a new A16 processor in the iPhone Pro, but stick to last year's A15 for the non-pro version.

That's a big change from Apple where they've historically put their newest processor in every single phone they launch (even the $430 iPhone SE announced last week has the A15 now).

I wonder if it's purely a cost cutting measure, or if they're not expecting good enough yields to supply them for every iPhone, or if they're holding some fab capacity back to have room for the higher end chips alongside the A16.
Not sure if the SE is as small as you want, but FWIW they've just put an A15 into the SE and kept the size the same.
