Nvidia didnt lie about TDP. Apple is famous in EE circles for running their gear as close to TjMax as possible to avoid turning up fans.

8600M had a design defect, bad composition of glue securing microbumps connecting die to package. Thermal cycling in high stress scenarios softened improperly selected underfill and broke microbumps connecting die to package. Repeated heating up can again soften the compound to release stresses and temporarily reconnect broken traces. It never fixes the main issue of broken chip.

2010 saw 820-2850 with N8 (330uF) Tantalum caps frying under the GPU. For 2011 Apple "wisely" switched to AMD and we got 820-2915 with fried AMD GPUs :) Apple is simply BAD at cooling.
At https://sfconservancy.org/GiveUpGitHub/ they also mention CodeBerg, which is hosted in the EU. https://codeberg.org/

It's git-only. FWIW, I chose SourceHut in part because they support git and Mercurial, and I'm a Mercurial user. [1]

FWIW, the main SourceHut developer last year moved to the Netherlands. https://drewdevault.com/2022/03/24/Netherlands-update.html , and commented "I will be re-locating SourceHut, the incorporated entity, to the Netherlands, and gradually moving our infrastructure over the pond."

[1] Also because SourceHut is whole-heartedly pro-free software, and also because I feel better being able to pay for a service than depend on the largess of a large company, and also because I don't like monocultures.
This.

Someone who writes 2400 words on how hot takes on social media about garlic are wrong doesn't really have a cooking hobby, they have a cooking-themed blogging hobby.
This. When optimizing realtime apps, focus on worst cases.

Also, FPS is inconvenient metric because framerate is not a linear scale. You can't say a task takes x FPS to compute, but you can say it take x milliseconds, since time is a linear scale.

For example: if a task takes 10 ms and other stuff takes 1 ms. FPS delta for the task is ~909 FPS (1000 FPS - 91 FPS). But if other stuff takes 20 ms, we get only a ~17 FPS difference (50 FPS - 33 FPS).
On a similar note, real photographers use prime lenses. Zoom lenses are for noobs who can't relocate. You also put your prime lenses on DSLRs, mirrorless cameras are clearly ulterior. If you think smartphones are a camera, you're the reason we're behind as species.

For you coffee, by the way, you grind it yourself, then you use your weiss distributor and flattener before you tamp it. If your coffee doesn't cost at least 20$ per pound and involves at least 5 manual steps, there's no way it can be good. If you put pre-ground coffee in a machine, you might as well skip these steps and drink directly from the toilet.

And since we're on HN, real developers use Unix as an IDE. With vi, obviously - emacs people can quit right now. And don't even get me started on those IntelliJ script kiddies

Seriously, there are always be people in each niche who think that their way is the only way and people who stray from the path are to feel the wrath of god [0]. I could go on and on with examples like this. Funnily enough, this quite often doesn't even work for them (I can tell from personal experience that bringing a DSLR with gear up a mountain is not pure fun, for example). Simply do what works for you and ignore them - unless you asked them or they pay you, their opinion is pretty irrelevant.

[0] Although it should be mentioned that usually quite a few people just act snobby for the joke and aren't actually on a crusade. The pineaple-pizza-thingy seems to be mostly a joke, for example.
> ...I don't know that I've used a laptop before with the thermal management to withstand extended full load- either it throttles down or it damages itself.

Setting your "it damages itself" remark aside for the moment, every laptop I've ever personally owned runs flat-out indefinitely at its rated maximum speed. I make a point of choosing laptops that have properly-designed cooling systems.

Electromigration is real, but that's a process that happens over many, many years. It is (_strictly speaking_) damage... but the only real way to entirely prevent it is to never use the device in question.

> ...unless your rig is water cooled...

In my personal experience, for mainstream (and, yes, this includes "workstation" and "server") CPUs, water cooling isn't notably better than a big-ass Noctua heatsink with a couple of their 140mm fans strapped to it.

Phase change "heat pipes" are really fuckin good for rapidly transferring heat from the contact pad of these heat sinks out to their radiating fins, and the big fans that are usually paired with them are quite good at cycling enough air through the system to ensure that the heat is moved out of the radiator in a timely manner.
I shop a lot at the Indian supermarkets in the UK and frozen blocks of ginger, garlic etc are totally normal. If anyone called my parents or relatives idiots or say they were unable to cook, when Indians basically make nearly everything from scratch, I would have told them to f-off and take their snobbery with them.
True. Also, you can always criticize your friends right back.
GitHub appears to be relying on a fair-use defense for Copilot. So it doesn't matter what license you slap on the code; if they're correct that their use constitutes fair use, as long as they can see your code, they can use it.
Per the topic of this particular judgment, they agreed to hear a challenge to a non-law!

The Obama era Clean Power Act is not law!

This court went out of their way to steal authority thst congress specifically placed in the EPA and based their judgement of overreach on a non-law proposed bill from over a decade ago.

I allege that they are corruptly serving the Federalist Society agenda and deliberately dismantling environmental regulatory bodies for clear goals the Federalist Society maintains
I read the link before I posted it, you don't have to repeat it. My point still stands and Excel for games is still not a correct analogy.
There's a maximum transmit power for the 2.4GHz band (without an operator license). If that maximum isn't exceeded, I don't necessarily see a problem here, unless Logitech is doing something really really sketchy on the EM spectrum. Implementing broken Bluetooth without calling it Bluetooth isn't forbidden as far as I know, for example, though it'd be quite a shitty thing to do.

If this notice is specially written for Airpods and not just any Bluetooth headset then it might as well be an Airpods problem.

I've never had issues with the dongles that come with Logitech on any of my devices. Bluetooth is terrible for high-frequency input and audio streaming anyway, so the in my experience the dongles are a much better solution.
>It is when you’re a software company and the marginal cost of the goods is zero.

$600mm annual sales and marketing isn't cost of goods but the method of accounting that I subscribe to includes such costs as a fundamental cost of production delivery.
But those serve 2 different purposes. The diced garlic in preserved oil is good for cooking in a pan, but the tube of garlic is handy when you want to mix it with butter to make a dip or sauce.

I wouldn't use the tube while cooking.
We tried to migrate to Gitea at my company, ~100 repositories with a bunch of mirrors, lots of CI, renovate-bot using the API, etc. It was a disaster. It was unusably slow (10+ seconds to load the list of pull requests, API calls to open a new pull request timing out after 60s) despite never using more than a tiny fraction of the resources of a 16-core server. We tried to engage with the community to find out the cause of the slowness and were met with open hostility.
What I would like is to not hear about Meta (Zuck, Sheryl …), at all. Even if they suddenly become the world’s nicest/honest company overnight, it would not be enough. They’ve already caused irreversible damage, both in the U.S and abroad.

Some things in life are too broken and can’t be fixed. FB is one of these.

Every time I hear their name, it is just a bad feeling
Speaking as a self-taught "programmer" who never got far beyond the rudiments (basic scripting and automation is about as far as I go), I find stuff like this utterly mindblowing. I'm aware that sorting and maze generation algorithms exist of course, but it's magic to me. I don't understand them at all, and seeing them visualised like this, in such an appealing way, is incredible.
Generally, people who get PIP'd don't get severance, even if fired.

The real purpose of the PIP process is to grind people down so they make mistakes, costing them what could otherwise be beautiful lawsuits [1], or just stop showing up (which I guess would fall under quitting, since they end up firing themselves, at least bureaucratically speaking).

[1] This is surprisingly easy to do in the US. If you post about your termination on social media, this can be construed as "cause after the fact" and make a termination that was in fact unjust or unlawful now legal. The employer's argument becomes that they knew you held malice toward the company ("cause") but couldn't prove it--the social media activity becomes said "proof".
Is there anything to indicate that autonomous vehicles would even help with congestion? Why would they? If anything more people might take them at the worst hours (because it would be less annoying for them without the stress of dealing with bumper to bumper traffic).

Cheap, reliable, dense public transit with diverse "last mile" options is clearly a much better choice from the congestion, efficiency cost point of views.
he seems to present it as giving the "benefit of the doubt", but that's not correct. What you are doing is trying to make the best version of the argument before critiquing it. This avoids strawman type situations. It doesn't mean discarding weak arguments, but you may end up dropping weak parts of the argument that aren't necessary to the central argument. Basically it try's to avoid needless back and forth that doesn't really address actual argument at hand.
The bigger blocks of cheese are cheaper.

I've noticed not much difference in price in the small blocks (The blocks that fit in your hand. I'm to lazy to look up the weight.) are sometimes more expensive than grated, or sliced.

I'm pretty sure the companies know most of us do not want 5 lbs of cheese in our fridge, so they jack up the smaller blocks?

While I'm here, I try to buy my spices, including dehydrated onion, at Costco quantities. Most restaurants use the same, but get better pricing through Sysco type companies.

Some Costco's sell yeast blocks which last a long time refrigerated.

If you are lucky, you can find high gluten bread flour there too. It's much cheaper than the better bread flours (King Arthur, etc.) at the supermarket.

The one thing I disagree with is bottled lime/lemon juice. After it's opened once, it tastes nothing close to a fresh lemon/lime.
Cheese is not about dairy or fermentation, it's about that funky cheesy flavour and texture. It's about fulfilling a certain role in our culinary tradition.
> relying on 100k+ LIDAR sensor data that will never will be cost-effective

Eh, the $100k prices are mostly for high-end, low-production-volume research LIDARs.

There are LIDAR manufacturers claiming they can achieve prices of $500 [1] or even $200 [2] if they were fitted to every car made.

More about C just being really outdated. There has been some innovation in programming language design since the 1970s. Python is not exactly cutting edge and is an entirely different language.

But Rust, Go, Swift, Zig, D, Terra, Nim and many others can potentially fill much of the same niche as is occupied by C today.
It is exactly how Apple does fractional scaling.

There is also some kind of belief, that scaling down framebuffer is somehow demanding. It isn't. The output encoder (the modern equivalent of VGA DAC) can do it on the fly. For several overlaid planes, each at different scale, at once (one of these planes is going to be your cursor).
Problem is simply taxing CO2 punishes people for decisions they made years ago.

Going to punish some working guy making $20/hr because he bought a used Crown Victoria in 2010? Or offer to buy it back and give them a down payment grant to put them in a newer hybrid/electric?

Lot less blow back in the latter option. It's also what California is doing right now.
I suspect any such model will have weird biases that don't match public usage. Monolith code can be impressive, but it probably only happens outside the context window of Copilot.
> My rule of thumb is that when I'm looking at the performance of an individual function, CPU instructions executed are probably more appropriate

Yet, the positive correlation between the CPU time and wall-clock time in real world programs isn't guaranteed. E.g. improvement on micro level (function or some excerpt of program) doesn't imply or necessitate improvement on the macro level (end-to-end wall-clock performance of whole program).

As a matter of fact improving something on a micro level can either negatively impact the end-to-end performance or it doesn't have to impact it at all, e.g. performance remains stable.

That said, this is still nonetheless an interesting article because it speaks about the stuff which, well, most benchmarketing blogs or engineers never mention. Getting the performance figures that are both statistically significant _and_ reproducible is amazingly difficult feat. Means and confidence intervals cannot help you because they can remain stable and large and you can also use many other similar statistical metrics but you could still be measuring consistently degraded performance of the system because of XYZ reason which is very difficult to identify. More often than not engineers will easy dismiss such benchmarks because they diverge so much from other measurements but the thing is that you don't really know what's the reason behind such experiment results: it could be a measurement error, it could be a "glitch" in the system whatever that might be (network, disk, kernel bug, etc.) but it could very well be an artifact of the software that you're actually benchmarking. Or it could be a combo of these things. Knowing which of these are the culprit for the results you are observing is a very difficult task. I haven't managed yet to find a robust approach which doesn't involve manual investigation. Think NUMA-aware systems where access to a non-local (remote) global variable can cost you a dozen of cycles so it turns out that the underlying problem actually stems from your code _and_ the way you're running the experiments!

Atleast with beer you can actually get different tastes.

The tests with water are funny, when knowing the name or price people pick the most expensive one as the best tasting, when it turns out that all the bottles were filled with tap water.
An employee at EpicGames wants me to fill out this questionnaire to use my OSS
Do check out the binary-tree benchmark of the benchmark game. You can see how ridiculously ahead of every other managed language Java is when it comes to GC - and while C# and Go can indeed get away with slightly less allocations (until Valhalla happens at least), my experience is that object allocation can’t be that easily avoided in most general purpose applications, and allocation/GC is often the bottleneck at the typical big web application scale. Here Java’s state-of-the-art GC algorithm(s) are pretty much unbeatable.

It is not without reason that FAANG and Fortune500 companies have many/most of their critical web services running on top the JVM (Apple, Google, Amazon, Alibaba, Twitter, etc).

So i made this, was thinking if i can improve what kind of people get invited for interviews. Probably better than filtering by linkedin but who knows.

didnt bother to buy a proper domain for now.
It also sometimes has extra ingredients to stop the strips sticking to each other and in the majority of cases uses lower quality cheese.

observablehq.com is awesome. We use it to build our feder example: https://observablehq.com/@min-tian/feder , If you want to understand vector embeddings, give it a try https://github.com/zilliztech/feder
I use Anki daily, but it has been completely unrelated to language learning for years now.

Also, I find you generally get the most out of Anki when you write your own notes.
Today I'm releasing Barebones components, a component library built for Vue and Nuxt with design freedom in mind. Local style mapping config allows developers to make use of Barebones components like Buttons, Modals, Tabs, and more, and styling them to their own projects specification. Components are built with A11y in mind.

You can read more about it here: https://dev.to/wearethreebears/getting-started-with-barebone...
Even the newer apple watches aren't fully 64bit, instead they run an architecture called "arm64_32" which uses 32bit pointers (which is probably why bitcode worked for this transition, I don't think 32bit bitcode could be used to produce a 64bit native binary)

A game changer is a little silicon tube from amazon in which you can roll the garlic cloves and the skin peels right off. I can run through a bulb in less than a minute, and then you can mince the garlic and freeze it into ice cubes if needed for later.
You think the minimum wage is unconstitutional?

That’s pretty extreme.

You cannot realistically expect 21st century America to agree with you.

If the constitution DID oppose a minimum wage, and it doesn’t, I would say ditch the constitution. Common sense.

Thing is, all this legalese mumbo-jumbo is a racket and a scam. The constitution is written in plain English in a rather common vernacular.

So-called “conservatives” have hijacked a silly notion of knowing the original intentions of the founding fathers and delivering an unbiased truthful channeling of that into a winning strategy.
To the rest of us it’s rather obviously a scam.
Where in "Europe"? The streetmarket here is super expensive, cheap garlic comes from the supermarket.
Why could they not have make architecture independent Bitcode instead? Would that not have been useful?

That's interesting regarding LinkedIn Lead Gen. My market is on LinkedIn but not other social and there's little SEO organic traffic opportunity.

I'd love to learn more about how you set that up. Could you link to some of those Lead Gen posts if they are still available or share some more info about your approach?
I'm guessing you didn't actually read the article, just commented from the headline, because I think disability is a pretty good excuse to use pre-prepared ingredients.
Nothing inherently right with gatekeeping.

Many harmful effects, though. Alienating valuable members comes to mind.
USB3 ports operating at high speeds can cause signal interference on the 2.4GHz band. This can be a problem for WiFi dongles, though Bluetooth dongles are often more sensitive to this.

It's just a side effect of the frequency some devices operate at. It's a physics problem that's difficult to solve. Theoretically you could limit the bandwidth if your USB ports to USB2 but that's probably not what you want either.

Random search result that seems to explain the problem with some sources: https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapc/comments/jfnbbk/til_usb_30...
Wow. Guess I left Meta just in time. It still feels difficult to believe Zuckerberg would say this though.
I feel like religiously throw those guys in prison when you catch them and ban them for life from trading paper, working in the finance industry, or serving as a corporate officer is what you aught to to.

Much better than the current, the stockholders will pay protection to the Feds to keep corporate offices from going to prison or facing any other repercussions.
I thought that the sub was less necessary with the 8" monitors? Maybe I misread or misremember.

One of the thing that's interesting to note with monitors is how 'biased flat' is very much a thing and that consumer audiophile speakers are very much not always biased flat, I think the varying companies have a sound profile which they aim to target.
from my personal experience people in the east (and perhaps south) usually look at their rep dem system much more cynically than people in the west (and north). and this attitude is very much reinforced by american patriotism freedom and democracy myth-making. i find its achievements absolutely amazing. how indigenous people and those that not that long ago were subdued into slavery can now be patriotic to the same flag that brought them so much misery is baffling to me
Thanks for the clarification. I recently read of steelmanning too by coincidence and have been fascinated with how it might work in practice.

I think it also means you should assume good faith too, right? So if someone says they are anti-abortion but pro-death penalty (for example) you don't jump on the hypocrisy as you see it but say "I see, so for you there is some material difference between the life of an unborn child and the life of a convict." When put this way it is easy to see where the other person's rationale is coming from.

I guess it like the Socractic method (except a little less confrontational) in which you restate the opponents statements in terms they can agree with, then follow up with questions exploring that until you trap them in a contradiction even they are forced to recognise.
I love meat, but choose to abstain for ethical reasons. Ethical concerns - rather than strictly dietary or culinary ones - are common reasons for being vegan or vegetarian.

Did you not know that?
No, it doesn't seem like they're doing much to alleviate the damage to society they've done. Still your comment seems rather cynical.

Yet, relative to the age of humanity or even modern society, they are still a new modality to humanity's interaction. One that facilitates also a lot of good that's happening in the world.

There is still a ton they could do right if they chose to, to make that environment for communication a healthier one. Could they find willingness to reroot their design choices in a wider tradition of social psychology, for instance?
Is it really likely that you can make a better case for the views of your opponents then they themselves? Is attempting that from scratch a better use of your time then reading the actual arguments that your opponents have? It seems to me that steelmanning often serves as an excuse to avoid that.
I really don’t buy this Scala complicated myth. It is a very small language, which is very expressive and has very powerful features. But it is not a complicated language, which I would leave for Rust and C++ having many features instead. Kotlin seems to have more features in-built than Scala even. Scala chooses more powerful features that incorporate the functionality of many.
