I once talked to an audiophile who claims that they can hear the difference between wav and lossless flac encoded from said wav (flac is worse). Like dude, the decoded audio samples are literally the same bit by bit. But maybe their expensive audiophile setup can't even decode flac without dropping frames.
Well up until the M1 Ultra, almost no one was doing GPU intensive stuff on mac, since they didn't have a line with a decent gpu. As such, Apple is creating an issue for developers that only manifests on the $6000 version of their machine that requires rewriting your whole algorithm to work around.
It’s quite common that employees are only allowed to share specific information about companies they work for on social media. Atlassian most likely has that power already.
I agree. Customer success is a support role, this was an engineering mistake.

Can't blame support for something an engineer did.
> over a long period of time, the gold plated connectors will definitely sound a lot better than the corroded whatevermetal ones.

This makes me curious about aluminum, chromium, and stainless steel (which as far as I know is just steel with a lot of chromium in it). I know that technically aluminum corrodes instantly and then maintains a stable corroded state. Will it work as a conductor that way? I have no idea whether chromium is like aluminum, corroding and becoming stable, or if it resists corroding to begin with.
If I saw T H T T T T T, if anything I would expect Tails more on the next flip because I might be convinced that the coin is biased.
Technically projecting a thought is a different ability than reading people's minds. The trick could be supernatural but still not involve reading minds. Aka send a few messages of common names, look for cues (such as "I got it") then say the most recent name that was projected.
50/50 asset split is far from the problem. Ongoing alimony after the split, excessive child support far beyond the cost of raising children , and huge legal costs to reach a slightly less terrible outcome are the problems. Not to mention the separation of fathers from children, but that often happens with or without an official marriage.
From what I've been told, the reason for the disparity is to discourage trying again or escalation.

If attempted murder and murder have the same penalty, there's no reason for a psychopath to not attempt it again. On the net, it might even be better for them since dead people can't testify.

I've heard a similar argument for why we should lower penalties for drug crimes. When people routinely have enough drugs laying around to be charged equivalently to murder, the law ceases to be a deterrent. There's no additional penalty for more crimes, because we've already maxed out the punishment. It's not like we're going to make them live to 270 so they can serve out their full sentence.
Thanks for clarifying, and of course ultimately I can't know any of this since I'm just a random stranger on the internet.

I notice that you argue that it couldn't have been about her wanting to put the tea ball in because whether you or she did it would have had no impact on the objective outcome of the tea. That makes rational sense and is how a normal person under normal circumstances would see it.

Then again, stuff like the IKEA effect is real: people feel differently about a piece of furniture if they assembled it themselves, perhaps there's a bit of pride and feeling of self-worth in having done that work. That feeling is independent of the usefulness of the furniture.

In a similar vein, perhaps your wife feels the need to do certain things herself to feel in control of part of her life. Everybody wants the feeling of agency to some extent, some more, some less. Again, it's almost certainly not about the tea, but if she feels that her life is "taken over" by the relationship (and so, explicitly or implicitly in her mind, by you) and that she doesn't have enough time and space that's her own, then something small like the tea could trigger a reflex in her along the lines of "why does it always have to be like this?"

The tea is an almost ridiculously tiny symbol for asserting herself, but it's possible that she feels she has already lost the bigger ways of asserting herself and reaffirming herself in the relationship, and so she reacts badly to that small thing being taken away.

If that really is the situation, it is already a very bad state for the relationship to be in. Of course, I may be way off base.
Low quality audio hardware absolutely exists and is rampant at the cheap end. And some standards, like USB2.0 (when used for data), are terrible and will cause audible noise if lots of care isn't taken to filter things and avoid ground loops.

But if you're spending $2500 on a headphone amp instead of $250 on a professional quality audio interface, or $1500 on jewel encrusted RCA cables instead of $30 on balanced XLR cables, or you think 192kHz sounds better than 48kHz because you have superhuman hearing and can somehow hear ultrasound, you're wasting your money and you have no idea what you're doing when it comes to audio quality.
These examples are the exception, not the norm regarding the underdog winning the war.

I didn't say everything was finished. ;-)

In fact, I'm not sure how to decide if something actually IS finished. Sometimes I just want to understand something, and when I get to that point, I call it done. I just like to learn.

Like with my FM synths: I made a TX802 clone a long time ago (in software), and once I got to a certain point I was like, "Yep, got it." I just wanted to construct something that could implement the FM algorithms and a filter. That's all. I could have made a fully-fledged MIDI synth, but I just wanted to understand synthesis. Or with ray tracing: once I got spheres, cubes, transparency, and reflections and a simple scene text-file syntax, I was like: I should add NURBS, but that was way too complicated, so I called that "done" because I understood how it worked.

You can ALWAYS keep going. Nothing is ever really done. When you lose interest, that's just your brain saying, "I learned enough, let's do something else!" Think of your brain on hobbies like a Golden Retriever: short attention span but always happy!
That’s an issue with your cheap connector not filtering it’s power supply and has nothing to do with the physical contacts being used.

That seems unlikely to me. Ductility is important for deforming the material into wires or sheets. If your connectors are pushing hard enough on each other to permanently deform the materials, something is seriously wrong.
Depending on the situation I could lie about it succeeding, go forward as if it didn't matter, use a back up technique, take the miss and admit i am not perfect or do it on the full audience all at once to make sure it mostly works (you will observe some of the above if you go see Derren's stage show several times).
> So Lexical doesn't care about how the DOM is rendered? Or is speech-to-text derived independent of the DOM?

I do now see your general point about the conflation there - the reality is Lexical also provides separate packages that implement a lot of common rich-text functionality. Within these, we do try to adhere to accessibility best practices. At the same time, the core library's accessibility claims are more based on support for various input methods, which I don't see as necessarily directly related to "UI components".

> For the bundle size, Slate.js is still better. It's the same bundle size for something that's batteries included.

Maturity is mostly a matter of time. I'm not sure what you mean by "batteries included"? AFAICT you need to install plugins on top of the core library with Slate to get a working text editor.
Well, there are still audiophiles who believe in ridiculous nonsense, so I don't see the harm. I'm far from obsessed with audiophiles, but it is pretty funny when it comes up. Same as people who believe in other forms of nonsense, like flat earthers and what have you.
"but their compute pricing is just too tasty to ignore" (linking to https://www.oracle.com/cloud/costestimator.html )

I checked the cost estimator, I really do not see how is this pricing "tasty" in any way, seems pretty similar to AWS and definitely not lower than Digital Ocean or other cheaper 'cloud' options.

It's supposed to look like it can't be done without telepathy - that's the whole point of the trick! And yet, it is done, successfully, on stages large and small, by people who are definitely not telepaths.
I mainly have different cronjob web scrapers that email me results. The latest one is for a local auction site that sells returned items. My scraper does a simple search for items that I’m looking for and then emails me if those items are for sell every day. That way I don’t have to waste time going to the site and looking for it manually, and I’m not tempted by other items that I don’t necessarily need right now.
But wouldn't it be fairly obvious to the audience that this kind of manipulation is happening and thus find it less interesting?
It absolutely can! On ARM you can just enter a block entree in a non-leaf page table to allocate an entire block of physically contiguous memory in a single TLB entry. From the ARM docs [1], any CPU supporting 16K translation granules will support 32MB L2 blocks.

I suspect, however, that apple can't really allocate that many (if any at all) 32MB regions of memory at runtime due to fragmentation unless they've substantially changed their contiguous memory allocator since I last looked.

Eh, sufficient complexity is indistinguishable from magic. No single human can understand the whole system of a modern computer in full detail. There is just too much stuff to learn for one lifetime. That's why we build all those abstractions in the first place.
This sequence of posts is written very strangely and imprecisely?

You'd almost never say "32MB of TLB". You'd say maybe, 8192 entries of TLB, each with 4kB pages, for instance. (Others here in Hacker News suggest that the M1 uses a 16kB page, so maybe 2048 entries of 16kB each?)

The Twitter posts are talking about temperature at first, tile-memory. I admit that I'm ignorant to tile-memory but... The traditional answer to TLB bottlenecks is to enable large-pages or huge-page support. So I'm already feeling a bit weird that large pages / huge pages haven't been discussed in the twitter thread. (Maybe its not the answer on the GPU side of things? But at least acknowledging how we'd solve it in CPU-land would help show off how features like huge-pages could help)

Like, none of the logic here makes sense to me at all. Maybe something weird is going on in the Apple / M1 world, but I have a suspicious feeling that maybe the person posting this Twitter thread is at best... misstating things in a very confusing manner and using imprecise language.

At worst, they might be fundamentally incorrect on some of these discussion points?
If you want to bother yourself with it go for it, seems like a waste of time to me.

My point is that if you feel clever, you’re not!

I don't know your friend nor you, so I can only speculate.

I can tell you that during my own journey trying to Be A Better Me it took time to internalize this kind of communication framework, to stop feeling like I was putting on a front and instead make it flow naturally as if this is just a part of my personality... because it did become just a part of me.

I have acquaintances from "the before times" that feel slightly put off by this aspect of present me, because they expect me to react more impulsively (or more "real") like I used to do. Nobody's wrong here, just mismatched expectations. Now that they see this is "really" me and not a mask I'm putting on, it leads to some gentle ribbing and that's it.

So putting myself in both your shoes: maybe your friend needs time to translate the core concepts of this into his own grammar and vocabulary, and it takes to acclimate to that from the outside too.
> It's not really fair to compare this, which takes heat at 2000°C, to a steam turbine that takes heat at say 550°C.

Sometimes it's better not to give yourself a title. Just say Software Engineer, which is fair because you have a degree. Because you've recently graduated, if you call yourself Senior, there's potential for some people to look at your resume and have doubts, which could result in not being interviewed if they have questions about your honesty. You might actually have the capability and skills of a Senior developer and a safe approach might be to just get the interview and pleasantly surprise them by exceeding their expectations.
that sucks :( they're next to impossible to find now. i have an extra battery from ebay for mine when the inevitable happens and i have to crack it open for the swap.

i looked a couple years ago for something with a bit bigger screen that can be flashed with rockbox and has comparable audio fidelity, plus sd card storage and came up empty, or absurdities like the OP.
Nice title. I don’t feel that the article delivers to the question raised.
I'd be willing to change my mind if a person was able to demonstrate this ability while just walking around a randomly chosen part of a big city, going up to strangers and just straightaway asking them to think of a loved one's name, with the recording stuff and people-choosing being done by a known skeptic.

Having it done in a stage environment controlled by the performer in question obviously offers the ability to do research on audience members beforehand, or even have plants in the audience.
Sure. But this is not a "criminal accusation". This is an announcement of the result of the judicial process. A jury convicted this guy, and now a judge sentenced him to 5 years. There are no further accusations being lobbed at him. It is perfectly acceptable to take DoJ's word for what the verdict and sentence were.

It is also perfectly acceptable to take their word for what he has been convicted OF. Convictions are how we write history. We have now answered the following question: did this guy conspire to violate sanctions? The answer was yes. All of the things they detailed in https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/us-citizen-who-conspired-assi... are things they tested in court and proved. (Very rarely, that process gets it wrong. But it is okay for the average Joe to accept convictions as the truth. It's the best we have. If someone's conviction is overturned, the truth changes. If you no longer have a judiciary of sufficient independence to ensure this, lawyers will stop recommending you believe verdicts, and they'll be screaming about it.)

Beyond that, you did not get ANY more commentary from the DoJ. They did not go on a rant about how Bitcoin's ideological foundations are in defying US hegemonic control over its currency, ultra libertarianism, how this was bound to happen, etc.. You did not get a political statement about how it should be brought within the banking regulations to ensure more transparency by Coinbase-like entities that might be used to evade sanctions further. All of which you may have been given in bucketloads by any secondary source.

Yes, DoJ has a long history of trying to send people to jail, even people who don't deserve it. The feds are very powerful and very smart, and if they indict you for something, the chances of a conviction are very high, because if they're not convinced to a high degree, they do not prosecute. I think there's a place for your rule: you should be careful of believing 100% anything that involves a DoJ accusation but no indictment. I would completely understand Wikipedia's position that they don't use a pure accusation by the government of a crime as evidence of guilt to back up an entry saying "they did X" on Wikipedia. But the rest of it is both newsworthy and consequential, and as I said before perfectly good as a primary source evidencing the facts and outcomes of the judicial process.

That is still a form of warfare.
Gold plated connectors are absolutely normal and completely standard and essential. The vast majority of durable data/signal connectors used today are gold-plated. Hack open any random decent microUSB connector if you don't believe me. You need a solid connection for signal integrity. Corrosion messes that up. Of course, with modern cost optimization, usually only the contact surface is gold plated these days, not the entire pin, and the plating is quite thin and cheap. Connectors intended for higher connect/disconnect cycles will be more expensive in part because they need a thicker gold plating to avoid wearing out.

Gold plated PCBs are also completely standard (google ENIG). In this case the plating is even thinner and just serves to ensure solderability and avoid corrosion. It's so thin that it immediately dissolves in the solder during the solder reflow process; it's just there to allow that process to happen properly, and to avoid corrosion in non-soldered areas. Almost every modern high tech PCB

Gold containing solder, on the other hand, is nonsense.

I've also got a stupid one: a mouse waggler. My work enforces screen lock times to be 5 minutes, and I have two computers, one on an air gapped network. So when development happened in the air gapped PC, and I inevitably had to look up docs for something, I would always be prompted for my password. So, I made a program that nudged my mouse just slightly every five minutes. That has essentially turned into my Windows API test bed. Someone will ask, how hard will it be to implement X for Windows? I'll try and find a use for it in this waggler, and look how to implement it.

This has also lead to the waggler part being obsoleted by one function call:

SetThreadExecutionState(ES_CONTINUOUS | ES_DISPLAY_REQUIRED);

It's now a full GUI program with all sorts of timers and reminder things, it also happens to keep my screen on.
As another commenter rightly noted below, they are always confident but they quickly shy away whenever an experiment is suggested.

> The Mac Studio is huge compared to the Mac mini

True, but Apple generally do care about either size or quietness. Starting with the G5 cooling system they started to exchange a lot of the former for the latter in their large desktops. I expect that is the case here (i've not actually seen a picture of this thing) - However this doesn't mean they designed the cooling system extra large margins, that's just not their attitude, unlike PC vendors they control all the components they can be more exact (Saying this as quite the opposite of an Apple fan boy).

Point is, the cooling system overcapacity is due to expected (but generally not fulfilled) TDP, rather than adding arbitrary large margins.
