AMD's 5800X3D and the upcoming generation of AMD/NVIDIA GPUs (both of which are rumored to feature stacked cache dies) are going to be real interesting. So far we haven't ever seen a stacked enthusiast die (MCM doesn't feature any active transistors on the interposer) and it will be interesting to see how the thermals work out.

This isn't even stacking compute dies either, stacking memory/cache is the low-hanging fruit but in the long term what everyone really wants is stacking multiple compute dies on top of each other, and that's going to get spicy real quick.

M1 is the other example but again, Apple's architecture is sort of unique in that they've designed it to run from the ground up at 3 GHz exactly, there's no overclocking/etc like enthusiasts generally expect. AMD is having to disable voltage control/overclocking on the 5800X3D as well (although that may be more related to voltage control rather than thermals - sounds like the cache die may run off one of the voltage rails from the CPU, potentially a FIVR could be used to drive that rail independently, or add an additional V_mem rail...)

And maybe that's the long-term future of things, that overclocking goes away and you just design for a tighter design envelope, one where you know the thermals work for the dies in the middle of the sandwich. Plus the Apple design of "crazy high IPC and moderately low ~3 GHz clocks" appears well-adapted for that reality.

They have to, because the variable wind means that they need to be spinnable at a continuous range of speeds.

Components connected to the AC grid need to synchronize with the grid's frequency. Since we can't force the wind to blow at a particular rate, we'd either need a lot of fancy mechanics on the turbines themselves to drop their speed (which would waste energy) or we decouple their spin rate from the grid frequency with the AC -> DC -> AC converter (which also wastes energy, but probably less and with much less cost than complicated spin-rate-stabilizing machinery).
This depends on the product. Some of them will have strong competition and therefore a direct relationship between costs and prices, so if you lower costs (fees), you lower prices.

Others won't lower prices because their customers aren't as price sensitive. But then they get more revenue, which causes more competitors to enter the market, which, if it doesn't push down prices, increases quality and choice.

Whereas if the money goes to Apple, they add it to their undifferentiated enterprise-wide cash mountain and the customer sees no discernible benefit of any kind.

Interstate highway lanes are 12 feet, so 16 feet from the last lane isn't another two lanes.

> And yes, Ralphs had to pay damages, even though their truck was damaged etc.

To be specific, the jury found the Ralph's driver 10% responsible for the accident for illegally parking in the emergency parking only lane, and Cabral 90% responsible due to...all the other stuff. Ralph's therefore had to pay 10% of the damages that were found for wrongful death of Cabral, Cabral's estate had to pay damages that Ralph’s was found to have suffered. The former amount was greater than the latter, so in net Ralph's ended up paying.

Actually, induction motors seem to be losing popularity in EVs, being replaced by permanent magnet motors which are more efficient (which also makes them easier to cool). And they're usually regarded as AC motors because they're fed 3-phase AC power from a motor controller (also called an inverter). The entire motor controller / motor system runs on DC power, so sometimes it's referred to as a brushless DC motor.

Fast charging is done with DC. Level 1 and level 2 charging uses 110 or 220 volt AC and is quite slow by modern standards.
So you are supposed to provide data sources about problems, but are not allowed to involve opinions in that? Can you give some examples of feedback that would fit that criteria?
3D circuits would be denser (shorter propagation distances) than a planar circuit. In fact "computronium" is sort of an idea about how dense you can conceptually make computation.

You just can't really cool it that well with current technologies. Microfluidics are the current magic wand that everyone wishes existed but it's a ways away yet.

They both said on TV they fucked when he was 15/16, and while she was in a power relationship over him (as his French teacher). Pointing out there might be a problem with that doesn't violate libel laws for a whole host of reasons.

Likewise, public confessions satisfy the standard of proof for criminal liability. If you say "I'm glad I killed this guy" next to what looks like a corpse with 100 people watching, you can be convicted of murder without the police so much as checking it's indeed a corpse, based on testimony (does not even need to be direct testimony, done in court, it can be a police officer saying one of the hundred confirmed this to them) of one person. If you say it on TV, well the laws on this predate TVs, I'm sure it will work the same.

And, technically, since he was a minor, French law says the public prosecutor HAS to sue the adult (ie. her), no choice. Don't you love "someone think of the children" laws? Needless to say, this didn't happen.
I've taken a year off before and it was great for the most part. The first month or two I hardly touched a computer, I spent time with my family and a lot of time in nature.

I haven't used a Chromebook before because I've always suspected this kind of malfeasance is inevitable, but I wonder...

Could you just rip out the disk device (nvme/etc) and shove a blank one in there?

As long as you never used the backdoored Google account again, at least you could re-use the device for other purposes (albeit with a different OS most likely). Not optimal I agree, but could that be a viable option?

Also, is it possible to virtualize Chrome OS, feasibly? Might be an option for anyone with the skills to firewall/isolate that malware when usage is compulsory.

Which Amazon? The online shopping? Yeah, that one's easy because good customer support is mostly taking your side unless you're being abusive, and because in reality most returns get thrown out anyway. Amazon shopping is also highly profitable. They're not scrounging cents they get from you watching ads.

Media literacy seems like it was a lot worse back then. I’m not convinced I would ever support the invasion of another country.

I’m not supporting the invasion of Russia. I’m supporting the defense of Ukraine.
From a BBC article titled "The Ukraine crisis is a major challenge for China"[1]:

"a constant refrain from China's leaders is that it does not interfere in the internal affairs of others and that other countries should not interfere in its internal affairs...

but:

"Putin recognises the independence of Ukraine separatist regions, which is obviously interfering in the domestic affairs of another country."

also:

"Vladimir Putin says he's liberating Russian speakers inside Ukraine. What of the ethnic Mongolians, Koreans, Kyrgyz and the like who are now part of China? More potentially explosive for Beijing, what if Tibetans or Uyghurs renew calls for greater autonomy or even independence?

"That this does not happen is more important to Xi Jinping's administration than anything."

Some Scheme/Lisp implementations are capable enough to accomplish daily work. Common Lisp is one option, and I've used Chicken Scheme effectively for some projects.

You're right though, there's a significant learning curve with any language in a different paradigm. Forth-like languages are an example, and yeah, J/K and cousins are hard to grasp. I've dabbled in these but never quite got there.

IMO Lisp-like languages aren't quite as "foreign" since the syntax is a variation on 'function parameters body' used in "normal" (Algol-like) languages.
I guess it comes down to what we get used to, and really for many purposes choice of language isn't all that critical, assuming of course it supports the task at hand.

Unless someone from HN is mediating, it seems pretty unlikely that there will be an award for the value of the computer in small claims court.
Last year (not 2100) a town in Canada reached 49.5ºC, in an event when a lot of places in US got temperatures 35+ºC for a week or something like that. Siberia reached past June the 38ºC mark. Those are the heatwaves that we are getting right now, not in 80 years. Couple that with wet bulb conditions and we might have a lot of problems, this decade.

You don't need a full year with the average day past the uninhabitable mark to be in trouble, you just need one day with conditions that you can't survive.
> This is because exploiting the targeted behaviors will create a massive competitive advantage next to the handful of larger players that cannot engage in them.

But then they'd either get large enough to have the rules apply, or there would be a large number of smaller players competing with each other -- which is also pretty great.

> Finally, the idea that the legality of a business strategy should be determined by how much an owner of the company is worth is ridiculous on its face

Corporations are "people." That's there to prevent companies from pretending their operations don't meet the total by using subsidiaries.

Notice that no current human has that net worth.
I'm using a Kensington SD5700T and I have nothing but good to say about it.
If we discover room-temperature superconductivity and it is industrial-scalable, I could see DC taking over AC transmission lines.

But right now, resistive heat losses make DC a silly solution. That’s why we rectify only when the energy reaches “the edge.”
Ask HN: How much job hopping is too much?
I think the conventional wisdom is to stay at a company for at least 2 years, but I'm not sure if that is still agreed upon in this market.

My job history is as follows:

7 months - quit because they needed me to relocate a long distance

13 months - quit because we were acquired by another company and the new leadership was toxic in my opinion

5 months - contract, decided to not renew

7 months - current

I am considering leaving my current job, and I'm wondering if hiring managers would see it as a red flag. I don't want to dox myself but the reasons are:

1. Low pay. I was actually happy with the pay when I started but rent and everything has increased tremendously since COVID started. My company's health insurance plan was also changed at the beginning of this year and my cost went from 0% to 10% of my after-tax take home pay. I've talked to my boss about both these things and she said it sucked. So I didn't formally ask for a raise and I don't think I'd be eligible for one anyway, my other coworkers have not yet received one I don't think.

2. I'm not happy about the culture. The only people who get any recognition for their work is the sales team "because they pay the bills." Even my boss (CTO) agrees. My attempts to fix tech debt is shot down because engineering is seen as a cost center to begin with. My team is fantastic to work with but I don't like leadership's position.

3. Related to my second reason, as someone who is junior I want to sink my teeth into a tough and long term project, but management won't allow it and they only want us working on short (and buggy) MVPs and shipped to customers. Our time to ship averages less than a day. I don't think I'm learning many "proper" engineering skills doing this.

4. Similar to my last reason, I want to work in a team with other people in my discipline (QA) to learn from them. Right now my company has 5 engineers but I'm the only one who works in QA. When I ask for feedback on my code the other engineers say they don't know how it works so they can't help. But the frontend and backend engineers get plenty of feedback from the other engineers because they're more knowledgeable. They're trying their best but I feel I'd learn more working in a team of others rather than by myself.

Other than _maybe_ the first reason, I don't think I have many strong reasons for leaving and that's why I think another employer would see this as a red flag. But I also know there are a lot of job openings these days so I'm wondering if I should give it a shot.

The decedent's estate was also ordered to pay Ralph's.

What I want to know is why no one makes a plain actual hub for USB-C

Why is that tragic? Classic NLP tasks are IMHO kinda pointless. Nobody _actually_ cares about parse trees, etc. These things were useful when that was the best we could do with ML, because they allowed us to accomplish genuinely-useful NLP tasks by writing code that uses things like parse trees, NER, etc. But why bother with parse trees and junk like that if you can just get the model to answer the question you actually care about?
Oddly, the article doesn't mention anything about gender roles or the disproportionate impact of suicide on young boys, even though they commit suicide at 4x the rate of young girls[0]. This is especially odd because the author of the article does feel comfortable discussing other demographic trends, like elevated rates among LGBT and non-white youth, even though those trends are much smaller in magnitude than that of boys compared to girls.

No offense taken and no offense intended at all friend.

In my opinion we are down the rabbit hole of arguing style over substance. I just think you are grasping at straws. Tools like black (if there was a just god it would just be part of the language, like gofmt) can easily settle stylistic choices.

Really not worth endlessly debating, what next, tabs vs spaces?

This commit seems fine to me as well. Consider the golfing serves the purpose of "the lols" if you must. Heck this particular commit looks slightly better with the change!

Excessive golfing to the detriment of code quality over time is a well known and wholly irrelevant point to make with something like Tinygrad.

If you are so convinced of what you are saying, fork and rewrite it as verbosely as you prefer and demonstrate some significant improvement to the project quality. Would be insightful.
