All kinds of planes have by necessity far better drag coefficients than cars. A truck, SUV, even a minicar is like a brick wall moving at high speeds while a plane essentially slices through the air like a knife.

Additionally, planes tend to fly at constant and pretty high speed for most of their operation, while a car has a lot of acceleration and deceleration going on. Planes can also use wind thermals to change altitude (sail planes can only use that!) or can stay at the same altitude while a car driving below it is stuck with the geography (i.e. it has to follow and climb hills).

> Nothing wrong with that, but I don't think the strong will to remain near one's roots SHOULD be all that "incredible" to you.

Regardless of what I "should" think, if people are complaining about not being able to afford to live somewhere, then they stay there while their disposable income drops and drops until they're struggling, all while alternatives are available, that is incredible to me.

I can empathise with feeling sad about leaving and delaying, but I don't think I'll ever be able to really understand the author's final decision.

But this isn't exactly what I'm talking about, is it? The author is bilingual, has a Bachelor's degree, and lives in the EU (and even further, the Schengen area), a single labour market.

We can talk in general about how some people are stuck. Indeed, helping people who can't help themselves is one of the main purposes of government, but the author doesn't seem stuck. Their comments and background indicate they're in Portugal by choice.
What runtime are you using? A custom runtime can get cold start times in milliseconds, as long as you're not loading a large language runtime or a container. Try a custom runtime that has only a single statically linked binary in it and nothing else.

It's an interesting thesis, but I'm a bit confused by your methodology - how can you propose a law without looking at any data yourself? You just seem to collect a few unrelated observations ("librarians have observed X", without giving any reference there) and laws that were developed for different contexts (Zipf's law), and from there you argue your way quite informally (mathematically speaking) to your proposed n log(n) formula.

Sorry for being so critical, but I would find it quite interesting if you had hard evidence to support a scaling law like n log(n) for the value of a social network.
The first part of your claim might as well be true.

But the second one isn't. Russia has large number of Russian citizens there now, and is not leaving them behind. I don't see that happening.

Ukraine does not want to leave their citizens behind either. So it seems that the conflict is not ending peacefully. Maybe it's not ending at all. Think Kashmir.

Not sure. I suspect the issue would be lots of memory transfer between the GPU and the CPU, because downstream layers usually need previous layer outputs. It would probably depend on the receptive field of the network? Also on how expensive memory transfer is, maybe it's worth it in some cases. But there's no reason why you couldn't run say the first big layers on the CPU and then treat deeper layers (which may take a smaller input) as a separate network to run on the GPU. I suppose you want the largest subgraph in your model that can fit in available VRAM. Certainly the Coral/EdgeTPU will dispatch unsupported operations to the CPU but that affects all ops beyond that point in the computation graph.
Your solutions are essentially what I've been doing for years - short of a benevolent government paying for people's lack of discretion when it comes to longer-term financial and energy planning, I don't see what could make people do any of that unless energy suddenly became more expensive.

>And the whole point of "begger thy neighbour" is that it hurts you

Not necessarily, and not necessarily across differing timeframes. Using the scenario at hand - Germany is reliant on a hostile regime to keep its lights and heating on. Why is it necessarily in some other country's own self-interest to send some of its own energy supply based purely on international economics, and not the needs of its own citizens?

A blind application of this "principle" would mean that less wealthy countries would be obliged to help out a wealthy neighbour in a time of distress, and just hope that the wealthy neighbour will be nice to them when they can. It assumes best intentions all around, which is nice but unrealistic.

I am also going to echo what was said earlier: dining rooms are not a necessity. They are mainly intended for people who entertain guests. Many apartments and smaller family homes don't even include a dining room, since the expectation is that people will eat in the kitchen.

And what is this obvious story that is being ignored? The one I'm seeing here is that Truth Social is in violation of Play Stores TOS. Google even told TS how to address those problems. Interestingly, after that, TS claimed that the ball is in googles court. Seams that the drivel is coming from TS.

Of course there is a question if this was politically motivated or not. After all, apple has allowed it on their store and there are other similar apps on play store. Don't see why not being allowed on a platform for not complying with TOS should automatically be considered politically motivated.

Besides the short battery life, I hope your new laptop is treating you well otherwise!

I don't know about your workload, but in you case you ever wanted to poke around, one thing that might be worth looking into is to see whether the MUX switch (only accessible in Windows) is on its dGPU-only mode. On iGPU mode, the battery life tests for idle and wifi web browsing seem pretty good in Windows: https://www.notebookcheck.net/Asus-ROG-Zephyrus-G14-GA402R-G...

On Windows, 3rd parties have been working on a utility called AATU to improve performance and longevity: https://amdaputuningutility.com/

And on Linux, I used https://github.com/FlyGoat/RyzenAdj all the time for my preferred use cases (eg, setting the temp limit below when fans turn on to get a completely silent laptop on battery, lowering max power limits if I wanted to hit a certain amount of battery life, etc). (TLP has run-on-ac and run-on-bat commands so you can easily set your defaults based on whether you're plugged in or not (udev can see power events too).
I did a small comparison of implementing pipeline concurrency in Go and Crystal:

https://rillabs.com/posts/crystal-concurrency-easier-syntax-...

Crystal pretty much provides the same (great) concurrency functionality with light-weight threads and channels etc, but with a cleaner syntax and in my experience less gotchas around closing channels in the wrong place and order etc.

The main downsides compared to Go I've seen is:

- (As mentioned) Compile times

- Far less compelling cross-compilation story

I'm building it as a simple, vanilla JS web application, in a SaaS model (since I need to keep bending to Microsoft's will). The Teams API isn't great to reverse engineer, but it's do-able and has been done (partially) before, but never to the extent required to create a full-featured app.

If you want its direct ancestor, then it's perfectly true. The etymology further back than that would be irrelevant, and also unattested.
Save your blood and accept the simple fact that "the police" are a actually a set of more-or-less independent small government departments who get to beat people up and get away with it. And then arrest the beaten up person putting them in jail indefinitely before trial, and creating an immediate huge financial and social burden on that person. Mostly the public is unaware of this because the frog has boiled in fits and starts, the last big temp increases happened because of 9/11 under Bush and Obama and the distro of military gear to PDs. Tell me: what about this situation implies "self-restraint" is a key virtue of PDs?

I'll tell you what the problem is. It's the justice system itself. It's extremely slow and expensive. Defense lawyers have perverse incentives -- delays make money. Prosecution have perverse incentives -- they just want easy wins. The courts have perverse incentives -- they don't want to decide cases. So you get a system rooted in all-powerful patrolmen who effectively serve as judge, jury and executioner, with the rest of it serving as a willing, very highly paid window dressing. So why would a PD ever say no to getting any legal advantage?

The solution must be to rethink justice from top to bottom, such that excesses like this are punished meaningfully. I'm uncharacteristically optimistic about the possibility, mainly because of computers and the internet. Justice is about making sound decisions informed by reality after applying agreed upon rules (laws), and it requires a judge/jury. Computers can help with each of these elements in ways barely explored by modern-day courts. They can help with information gathering and jury selection/operation. If we wanted, we could have same day trials of higher quality than the months or years long things we have today.

For people aware of these problems, the only solutions they hear involve fixing the justice with new legislation or by electing the right sheriff, mayor, police chief, or if a higher level of government steps in (like the FBI or federal courts). Or even worse that odious pablum "just vote" - if you've been served shit for dinner it won't taste better if you push it 'round your plate.

(If someone with infinite money (and with open-minded connections with judges in various courts, and supportive politicians) wants to fund a serious effort in this area, please reach out to me, because this need is critical.)

> I worry about people who use a word like 'superior' without any dimensions.

Well, let me clarify that as "superior in whatever dimensions the designers of those post-WWII piston engined planes considered important". Hope that helps.

> I can think of plenty of reasons the simpler design with one less failure mode might dominate production during the war, without being the obviously better choice given peacetime applications and seventy years of technical advances.

To be clear, I was writing about the immediate post-WWII environment before jets made piston engines obsolete except for the lowest end of the market. Aviation piston engine development pretty much stopped then.

Sure, a "modern" aviation piston engine for the GA market will quite likely be a water cooled design, if for no other reason that there is so little R&D money available for piston aviation engine development that most likely it's going to be based on a car engine.
