Obviously this varies, but if you have a good relationship with your manager, this can be a huge benefit down the line. That person can be part of your professional network, and may possibly reach out to you several years down the line with a new position at the new company they work for. Leaving right after a large project has been assigned to you does have a negative impact on your manager and current team, so it may be beneficial to let them know early.

People change positions fast in this industry, so keeping on good terms with coworkers you respect can be good later when they have moved on and are looking to hire.

Well, you're comparing it to the mainstream. I think it's more because things have become more algorithmic.

If you search recipes on Google, you'll get a lot of mediocre 4.7 star recipes. YouTube actually gives better results because it can't be SEOed as easily; we still don't have content creators who put 80% of the budget into marketing.

Disney+ actually has a lot of incredible stuff. I've been watching Pixar shorts more than many other things lately. But this stuff doesn't get into the front page. Same goes for say, TikTok or Google Play. You'll have to dig deeper.

Netflix I feel is on a downturn where they stop showing niche things like Adventure Time and My Little Pony and churn out formulaic original content designed to get people hooked, and lower their costs. Which why a lot of it leans towards sex and shock.

There is a solution that nobody really does: manual content curation. The catch is you can't aim to make lots of money, because once you do, you become the mainstream front page.

> So the question is, how hard is it to optimize an existing application?

TBD how hard it is to optimize an existing application to remove this bottleneck. The tweets seem to suggest it's pretty involved. Alternatively, there might be a simple way to use a larger page size (called "huge pages" on Linux, possibly "superpages" on macOS), which would greatly relieve the TLB as a bottleneck, if TLB = translation lookaside buffer. The tweets seem confused enough that I'm not sure.

> If it's a few quick changes and a rebuild, then it's nothing. If it's anything more you'll have an Itanium-like product flop.

Meh, if it means many applications only reach 86W rather than 105W, that's probably not world-ending. Most applications on any platform have some bottleneck that they could avoid with more optimization effort, whether it's the TLB or something else. Users usually don't complain in spite of these bottlenecks. And:

> It's also possible that node size and computational headroom relative to the software of the day will make it hard for consumers to notice or care.

Yeah, people seem pretty happy with these processors.
OK hot take. This isn't a complex problem. It seems like this is a combination of:

- nice weather

- lots of rich people (income inequality)

- lots of poor people (also income equality)

- favorable law enforcement regime

So given that, is it any wonder what rich people want? More enforcement. The other options are an actual taxation system or a brutal winter; 50/50 on what they'd prefer haha.
I think this document and incident is a decent example of common DR planning failure patterns.

It is explained here that Atlassian runs regular DR planning meetings with the engineers spending time planing out potential scenarios, as well as quarterly tests of backups and tracking findings from them.

So, with those two things happening, I the imagine recovery time objectives of <6 hours was taking a typical "we deleted data from a bad script run affecting a lot of customers" scenario into account with the metrics from the quarterly backup tests.

That doesn't even come close to the recovery time we are currently seeing now however. We're coming up on 2 orders of magnitude more than that.

The above doc seems pretty far our of line with what is currently happening.
> These pre-determined fixed odds make it such that the games support the opposite of your argument.

> If outcomes were independent probability then it would be possible to for example win 100 games in a row (with astronomical probability, but it's still possible). In fact the machine owner neuters it so that the house won't lose in such a streak.

The possibilities you say cannot happen do happen. Let's look for example, at "Another Eden" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Another_Eden

I don't really know anything about it, but it was one of the first on wikipedia's list of gacha games that I googled "pity system" and got "no it doesn't have one".

Someone has made a simulator for it. If I go to https://ae-encounter-sim.github.io/ and click on "Weapon Discovery Manifestation", it shows me two characters on "rate up" (more common). The official probability of getting each of them is 0.8% chance for each "encounter".

I'll click until I get the first character (5star Melina apparently) and post my results:

1. First time, 360 encounters (36 10 bundles), cost of $959.88 USD.

2. Another try, 480 encounters, cost of $1,200 USD

3. Last try, 130 encounters, cost of $319.

It is very possible to get the desired outcome in 1 "encounter", or to run out of money first and never get it.

> the machines have a fixed payout % [that isn't independently random per trial]

There's no fixed payout if there's no pity system. Why would there be, they're just giving away jpeg images.

A lot of casino machines also don't necessarily have fixed payout. Over long enough time periods, the casino still wins, they don't really need to worry about incredibly improbable events. For those, they have insurance anyway.

> not committing to gambler's fallacy because these outcomes are not independent.

The simulator is supposedly accurate, and I expect the person who researched the probabilities to build it is likely to know what they're doing. Looks pretty independent to me: https://github.com/ae-encounter-sim/ae-encounter-sim.github....
> perhaps std::mem::forget should be marked unsafe

It was in the past IIRC. The problem is that there are multiple ways to leak resources in safe Rust (e.g. creating `Rc` cycles), and the compiler cannot prevent them all. So leaking is safe, and because it's also useful sometimes, `std::mem::forget()` and friends (e.g. `Box::leak()`) are also safe. That being said, it is pretty hard to accidentally leak memory.

Google can interpret the intended meaning of arithmetic expressions like that with even higher confidence than this Neil Armstrong query. But the confidence with which Google can interpret the intended meaning of this Neil Armstrong query is well above any reasonable threshold one might propose.

I would argue that it's roughly just as clear that the query intends to refer to the Moon as it is that the query intends to refer to the Canadian Neil Armstrong who was killed in a plane crash in the Antarctic in 1994.
It's not that crypto is better, it's that using it directly is better from an efficiency point of view. If you used it for carbon sequestration that would also be better compared to converting it and retaining 65-75% of the energy before using it.

Plenty of functions are discontinuous. Almost all of them, in fact. (This isn't true constructively, but GP is clearly doing classical analysis.)

> If a [math] function returns a more complex type signature instead of throwing a ZeroDivisionError (as Python core does) what is that then called? Is it differentiable or no, etc?

Depends on the smooth structures you've imposed on the domain and codomain, which requires much more powerful types to represent than are available in any mainstream language I'm aware of. (You might be able to contort Haskell into something sort of close, but it wouldn't be simple.)
It's because the hardest parts of software involve connecting with other systems and soliciting your custom requirements. Imagine if you wanted to buy a custom car, but you wanted an "off the shelf from walmart" experience.

"Hello, I'd like to buy a custom car."

"Ok great, we have many over there."

"Yes but you don't have any pink ones with cool designs"

"Well, we could make you a pink one, but what design would you like to see on it?"

"I don't know, maybe a Nascar design. Oh, no, what about a Harry Potter design?"

"We can do that for you, but it will take a few weeks and you'd have to put a deposit"

And now you aren't selling things off the shelf.

> Context for those unfamiliar: under California Prop 47, thefts under $950 in San Francisco are rarely prosecuted

Prop 47 makes them misdemeanors, but lots of misdemeanors are prosecuted. What makes them not prosecuted in San Francisco is a combination of police refusing to arrest (in part, as a political protest against Prop 47 and to create pressure for greater criminalization) and the DA choosing not prosecute (and these two things reinforce each other, as nonprosecution of what arrests happen leads to even fewer arrests and even investigations, which leads to fewer opportunities for the DA to even consider prosecution.)

> If you were charged $123.98 and you said, "hey, I told you where the problem was, why am I being charged a diagnostics and driving fee?" and they corrected it by telling you the whole thing is on the house, is that not good business sense?

No. I'll be happy that I saved on the money, but I won't trust them in the future. They're now "the place that tries to get away with things" in my mental Rolodex. Better to stick with the fee and know their value. (I didn't tell them where the problem was. All I knew was that the clutch wasn't grabbing anymore. I assumed it needed a whole new clutch.)

> Even by your own admission, you would have gladly paid that $123.98 with no issues and you wouldn't have been mad about it. So from a business perspective, if they can provide a service, get paid for it, and the customer has no qualms or issues with the transaction whatsoever, in what way is that hurting the brand or being cynical?

It would have been a fine decision, sure. But in that case that would likely have been the only business I did with them. Not out of spite or anger, but because I'd have no reason to pick them for future business. I would instead ask friends for recommendations, or pick some place closer to my future residences.

But what actually happened was that I was the one steering people to them. I also went out of my way to return to them for brake jobs, simple oil changes, etc. I was a loyal customer, and probably spent or caused others to spend over $5,000 there.

He had absolutely know way of knowing that would result. But if you just treat people right, the way you'd want them to treat you, you build a reputation. It pays back.

I know this story comes off a bit pollyanna. I get it. For a cynical and non-altruistic explanation: when it takes a technician literally 5 minutes to twist an adjustment nut and verify that was all there was to it, stop and think about the bigger opportunity before you robotically mark '1.00' in the "LBR HRS" field on an invoice. Especially if you're operating in a field that's notorious for rip offs.

> I think that's a much more business-wise action to take than to give away your services.

I'm not saying businesses should give away major services. But they should avoid the temptation to nickel-and-dime as well. That's on the other end of the optimization curve. Not good business.
I think we're missing some info.

32MB of coverage is the same size for the TLB on a SM for a 1080ti. https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3491218 I don't think that's gone up a lot since then.

And GPUs in general are totally fine with stalling on memory accesses. That's core to how they work, and why you run into issues treating them like CPUs. They approach the problem of the memory hierarchy at a base level differently by accepting the fact that thread groups will stall on pretty much every memory access, and just barrel scheduling enough thread groups that you can keep ALUs saturated despite the memory dependencies due to massive parallelism. Cache and TLB misses aren't that big of a deal if you have enough work to cycle through. If you don't have massively parallel amounts of work, and can't just keep cycling through contexts, this is the main reason why some algorithms don't work on GPUs, but that's a global problem to how all major GPUs approach the problem of memory that's hundreds of cycles away.

> Hishnash: "What apps should be doing is loading as much data as possible into the tile mem and flushing it out in large chunks when needed. I bet a lot of the writes (over 95%) are for temporary values that could've been stored in tile mem and never needed to be written at all."

I mean, you shouldn't be performing large amounts of writes that aren't a completion of a program on just about any GPU architecture. If you care about the results, heavy random writes screws you just as hard in a traditional GPU architecture too. You really want to be able to look at the data flow and describe it in almost pure functional terms. If you can't look at a program and say "it writes here at this offset or offsets", you're going to have a bad time.

And finally, there's all sorts of ways you can crank up the GPU without doing writes at all, so the inability to turn it into a space heater just because of TLB pressure doesn't make a lot of sense. The xor chains that something like the bogomips calculator uses will eat up every cycle you give it and make their way through the compiler and hardware schedulers all without blocking on memory at all.

Linear has offered free services to users impacted by Atlassian's outage through the end of the year. I took a look at it (we aren't impacted), and notice it can import tickets from Jira, and also has a "Jira Link" where you can use Linear as a kind of front-end to Jira if you aren't ready to go all in on Jira.

When we chose Jira, one of the points that was made was: If we decide to leave Jira, there will almost certainly be an importer from Jira to the new system. Which does seem to be true. We came to Jira from Fogbugz, and I spent the better part of a month writing tools to import our tickets and wikis. Jira had a Fogbugz importer, but it was horribly broken.

Looking at Linear, there is no such escape hatch, or indeed, searching the docs I saw no "export" or "backup" capability at all.

Watching Russian dashcam videos you'd think people found their licenses in a cereal box yet it requires a stern test with theoretical questions of the form "Here is an intersection, one street has a rail line, there are an ambulance, a fire truck, a military column and a bus on each side, who has the right of way?" (and the answer is that it's a bus because even though the fire truck would have a right of way normally it loses it because it would need to cross the rail line as specified in the Chapter 8.19.75 of the Federal Rules of the Road). And the driving part involves driving a manual transmission vehicle without power anything through an obstacle course.

So I would not correlate the driving test difficulty with the behavior on the roads.
