> To extend this, many people think of "green threads" as lightweight threading mechanisms. That's kind of accurate for many systems, but not always true. If that's the sense that's meant, then OS-native lightweight threads are certainly possible in the future. But there's probably not much reason to add them when user space lightweight concurrency mechanisms already exist, and there's no consensus on which ones are "best" (by whatever metric).

Wouldn't it make sense to implement them kernel-side when looking at how every programming language seems to have to reinvent the wheel regarding green threads?
Ahh.. and this is where it gets fun. You are automatically assuming that you know better how a given person should spend their time. Person might be fascinated by how a given formation absolutely hates being squeezed. You see a bomb, but he sees a rare material property. How do you decide ( and who does decide ) what information is 'sanitary' enough for the public to handle? I thought we were supposed to be our own arbiters? Or is it just imaginary freedom on increasingly more restrictive guardrails?

I genuinely dislike the current trend. I personally played with all sorts of chemicals in my dad's garage ( he was a mechanic ) and these days my interest would be at best seen with suspicion.
The Comfort Food Cut
The US might well not be a "real" democracy by some measure but it's not a despotism by any means - a variety of powerful forces are contending against each other.

I mean, the US has surveillance, had surveillance in the 1960s when income inequality was relatively low and it had surveillance in the 1920s, when income inequality was more similar to today.

This stuff isn't a recipe for some future dictatorship, it's part and parcel of the way power works right now and has worked for a while.
Roundup of Events for Bootstrappers in October 2022
Cool.

The samples are lacking definition, but they're otherwise spatially stable across perspectives.

That's something that's been struggled with for years.
If Google felt it needed to save, say, $500k, and it did so by firing 10 people who each made $50k, that would be devastating to those 10 people.

On the other hand, if it did so by reducing the collective paychecks of the C-suite by $500k, they definitely wouldn't even notice.

Obviously this doesn't scale infinitely, but it's not about whether you can make 100k people wealthy by giving them all of Pichai's money. It's about what's more important to Google when it believes it needs to spend less: keeping its executives' compensation from dropping by even a penny, despite the fact that any of them could probably retire in comparative luxury right now, or treating its employees with dignity and respect.

Once Pichai's paycheck is no higher than, say, 3-5x the company median, then come back and say you actually need to start laying people off.
There are a few companies in this space. Duality is one of the bigger ones. https://dualitytech.com/
Agreed on it being brittle. However, that's hopefully where retries come into play. And if the original request is handled but an error is thrown before the new event could be created, I'd hope there would be some form of logging in place to report that and hopefully it'd be a simple API call to restore the flow. But I definitely agree that it's messy...

All that being said, we definitely want to support true cron expressions at some point in the near future, I was mostly just throwing that out there as an option that would work today.
Nice try FSB ಠ_ರೃ

I presume you mean china rather than Taiwan, but the short answer is that sanctions are only as good as leverage and the popularity of the people imposing them. Getting sanctioned by the US is a big problem, because so many other countries will cut you off rather than jeopardize their own trade relations. Getting sanctioned by China or Taiwan would be a genuine problem, but neither country has so much leverage that they could get everyone else to go along.

The US is at a historical nadir of popularity, perhaps for structural reasons. But even if it were wholly isolated, its internal resources and expertise are more than sufficient to operate as an autarky.
That the Stadia dev's response on Reddit is pure nonsense, basically just saying that

1. we're committed to supporting this for years to come

2. you can download your game metadata (saved games)

LOL, what are people supposed to do with their game metadata now that Stadia is being shut down? Look at it in a hex editor?
>Credit card companies are anti-porn.

False. Credit card companies are simply protecting their business. From what? The laws and court rulings that make them liable for damages from really terrible edge case scenarios.
Apple already is filling that void. If you run your ads on third-party networks, you are beholden to Apple's privacy rules. But if you run Apple Search Ads through, Apple itself, a lot of the same rules don't apply and you get targeting and attribution back.

A lot of advertisers are thus shifting their ad spend into Apple.

Which she contributed to, so I guess the answer is... Yes.
IMO Stadia was born dead because of the lag built into its design. Most googlers I talked to when it was announced did not think about it at all, it was all about how cool the stack behind it was, but from a gamer's perspective I was just terrified about the idea.

It's not a proxy, but the 6to4 protocol that ISPs use to tunnel traffic. ISPs usually have IPv4s available, so they used it in the beginning of the IPv6 transition. However, there were quickly some problems discovered and the whole thing was deprecated after a few years.

In all fairness, it also does this on underpowered Windows/Linux hardware. It really is just a poorly made game, not Wine/Apple's fault here.
I don't know anything about Cornami's products or where they are in the manufacturing stage. However, I do work in FHE.

To give you sense of performance, today you can multiply 2 encrypted 8192-bit values in BFV with typical (not optimal) scheme parameters in 17ms on a single core of an M1 Macbook Air. This is the most expensive operation by a wide margin. The ciphertexts for these parameters is about 0.5MB and the keys are maybe a meg or two.

The algorithm you want make fast for most schemes is the Number Theory Transform (NTT), which is basically a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) for finite fields. This algorithm has only O(nlog(n)) operations, so the computational intensity relative to memory accesses is fairly low. This stands in contrast to something nice like matrix multiplication where matrices are O(n^2) but require O(n^3)[1] computation. Unfortunately due to Amdahl's law, you have to make not just NTT fast, but all the other boring O(n) operations schemes need to do.

If you want to make FHE fast enough to justify an ASIC, you'll have to avoid data movement and basically keep everything in on-chip SRAM. Waiting 400 clock cycles for data is a non-starter. For algorithms with bootstrapping, your bootstrapping key might be 100MB, so you'll probably want a chip with like 512MB of on-chip memory to hold various keys, ciphertexts, etc. You then need to route and fan-out that data as appropriate.

You then need to also pack a ton of compute units that can quickly do NTTs on-chip, but are also versatile to do all the other "stuff" you need to do in FHE, which might include multiplication and addition modulo some value, bit decomposition, etc. And you'll probably doing operations on multiple ciphertexts concurrently as you traverse down an arithmetic or binary circuit (FHE's computational model). Figuring out the right mix of what an ALU is and how programmable it needs to be is tricky business.

For larger computations, maybe you stream ciphertexts in and out of DRAM in the background while you're computing other parts of the graph.

Making an FHE accelerator is neither easy nor cheap (easily a 50-100M+ investment), but I think it is possible. My SWAG is that you might be able to turn the 17ms latency into like 50-100us but with way more throughput to execute a large circuit graph(s).

That tweet was from two months ago, long after everyone saw the writing on the wall with respect to the economy. As another commenter responded, the first tweet in response to that was:

> When you inevitably do shut down in a couple of months could you please just release Bluetooth drivers for the controller first? It's a good controller and I'd like to be able to use it.

In other words, people didn't believe them from the get go. Whether it was an outright lie, or a George Constanza-esque "It's not a lie if YOU believe it" message, is pretty irrelevant. Everyone knew or should have known it was BS.
Letter from Silicon Alley – The Connector (1999)
I expect that's the real reason for the US and Europe's "all-in" hardline over Ukraine: signalling to China about Taiwan.

Because pursuing a similar strategy with China would be substantially more expensive, in terms of treasure and blood, for both sides.

But the critical date there seems to be 2030-2035 based on military preparations.

there’s mass flooding of text too. some people fall for it, some people don’t. the being of it in a different medium makes little change.

>verifying sources

I’m talking about if your news came from Reuters or the BBC compared to coming from realnews247.io or a facebook post. the same applies. if you’ll believe some text on the BBC, you’ll believe a video from there, and if you’ll believe the words of AnonTruther on facebook, then you’ll believe their videos too. this makes no difference
An idea can be interesting and still be a huge waste of time. I don't think it'll end well for Meta. It'll be super interesting to see how it plays out. I think we might end up with some sweet VR tech, I just don't think it's going to give FB the kind of business they think it will.

You can always do this: https://wiki.debian.org/QemuUserEmulation to run amd64 binaries on an arm64 machine, or vice-versa. Docker desktop sets this up so you can pull amd64-only Docker containers on your M1 and not notice. I did some very minimal testing and it's not even insanely slow or anything (but obviously for many games, you can't leave this much performance on the table).

I do this on my workstation and can run anything, it's quite nice:

> The tech behind Stadia is very impressive, I could play Cyberpunk 2077 on my TV/Mobile/iPAD/Mac with no lag in 4K.

Could they actually do that? Or more importantly, could the average user - not someone next door to the datacenter - get that kind of performance?
>Totally non-sarcastic question: then why bother?

Because most of us looking into Asahi don't care for playing AAA games with it. We want Linux on our Mac laptop, with hw acceleration for the desktop and apps.
Feeding America's financials indicate their cost is ~$0.7 per meal. However, not on the financials is that they likely rely on a large volunteer support network of food banks, churches, etc. A lot of free, and expensive, labor. Also, I don't think they prepare the food, they just provide raw ingredients to folks.

That said, I think if you were creative with the menu - serving food staples known for low cost and decent nutrition it would be comparable. But this is beans and rice, lentils, PB&J sandwiches, etc. But I personally think this is fine. For me, the goal is to ensure no one starves it's not to provide a complete nutrition for every single person. Since the offerings are slim and not exactly desirable, the impact to McDonald's lunch business would likely be small. Pretty much anyone with the means to do so would rather eat something they paid for. It depends on if you view it as a general public service or if you view it as a safety net I suppose.

All that said, I think this has no chance of actually gaining momentum. Not in the US anyway. It sounds like something a Nordic country could pull off.
Yeah, it's kinda ridiculous actually. It's like they don't even believe you were employed when they interview you.
I only see that counter going up when a system hard freezes/crashes or the system loses power. I'm not sure macos recovery/install would cause that.
Yeah, if it was truly a cheap port that was just putting the game on another store and plugging in some API calls, devs would have flocked to it. But it involved a pretty involved linux ports instead. Apparently Red Dead Redemption 2 cost tens of millions to get working on Stadia.

sucks to hear as someone who wants linux gaming to get more prominance, but I guess for now the current direction is to WINE it out.
You have to convince game developers to port their games. If the reward is a few thousand users, it's going to be a hard sell. Also the R&D and infrastructure required to even start up the project is too high. Building a Gmail (especially back then) is small potatoes in comparison.
This is completely wrong way to view SaaS. It's just about making money, the control part is just so they can try and squeeze more money out of you. Control is not the goal. Money is.
Wow. What kinda operations are you performing? It's at an indicated 15% of its life in 3 months! (I understand that it can go past 100%)
It's not off topic at all. If somebody abuses their buffer states this much they can't have them. Perhaps there wouldn't be such opposition to the claims of reasonability of their request if the Russians treated their buffer states nicely (or at least not so badly).
I don't think it's that interviews don't try to evaluate competency, but that the process has become relatively homogenized and it has allowed new incentives to come into play that target interview taking development rather than skill development. It may also be that companies use most of the interview process primarily as a weeding out of candidates, and then when you get to the final X number of candidates, it becomes a toss up essentially.
I don't think folks really care much if it was an outright lie, or if it was a George Costanza "It's not a lie if YOU believe it" lie.

Just another data point on why people rightfully think PR posts like this are BS.
They reapply noise to the potentially distorted image and then predict the de-noised version like the originally rendered first frame. So the image is at least internally consistent for the frame (to the extend the the system generates consistency whatsoever).

The example with a squirrel wearing a hoodie demonstrates an interesting edge case, the "front" of the squirrel (with hoodie over the head) show a normal hooded face as expected, but when you rotate to the "back" you get another face where the hoodie is low over the eyes. Each looks fine in isolation, but in aggregate it seems like we have a two-faced squirrel.
And how, exactly, would you be able to tell?

Isn't the standard measure of CEO performance "did the stock price meet expectations for the quarter"? A measure which has a myriad of different factors far outside the CEO's control affecting it—as well as a number of factors in the CEO's control that have very little to do with the actual health of the company.

Furthermore, it's not at all uncommon for a very good leader to leave (dies, retires, steps down to go do something more fun, forced out by someone who wants to be their successor, whatever), and their successor to inherit a very healthy company with strong fundamentals and good people at various levels...and proceed to do bugger-all for several years and still be hailed as a great leader because the health of a company is very often a trailing indicator of leadership competence.
It'll be delusions and guesses, rather than distortions.

It'll just make up some colours and geometries that don't contradict anything it already knows from the defined perspectives.

> what if they don't? Why should they?

They will because they are a for-profit company and there's profit to be had. Apple will likely find a strong marketing angle for their Ad network (won't be the first time they've tried).

Selling hardware is a great business but it gets saturated eventually. The next move for eternal growth is selling services on top of said hardware.

> I would lose a lot of trust in Apple if they did. I don't buy iOS devices because I trust Apple Ads better. I buy them because I can avoid ads better and my privacy doesn't get shredded in the process.

Apple already has a lot of data about you. Consider that they own both the hardware and software experience on an iPhone. I'm having a hard time seeing an alternative here unless you have the time to manage your own phone OS...

> Wouldn't that be a massive antitrust issue?

Only if someone does something about it. I assume G and Meta's lawyers are already working on arguments.
Kinda surprised about the full refunds on seemingly everything. That has to be a pretty huge loss doesn't it?

Did they have to do full refunds legally, or are they just choosing to?

> why bother?

I wonder the same thing, but from an ideological perspective.

Why should the free software community promote Apple hardware by making it more accessible to OSS enthusiasts, when Apple only cares about OSS when it directly benefits them? Apple makes great hardware, but they're actively hostile to everything free software stands for. If Apple cared about this user base, they would work on this themselves.

That said, from a technical standpoint, this is nothing short of impressive, so kudos to the team. I can't even imagine the dedication and patience required to work on this project.
Green threads (today) aren't a singular thing, the definition is that they're in user space not kernel space. They are implemented in a variety of ways:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Green_thread

Do you imitate a more traditional OS-thread style with preemption, do you use cooperating tasks, coroutines, what? Since there is no singular best or consensus model, there is little reason for an OS to adopt wholesale one of these variations at this time.

The original green threads (from that page) shared one OS thread and used cooperative multitasking (most coroutine approaches would be analogous to this). But today, like with Go and BEAM languages, they're distributed across real OS threads to get parallelism. Which approach should an OS adopt? And if it did, would other languages/runtimes abandon their own models if it were significantly different?

The point of Bootstrap was to "make the default web beautiful". The better question is the poster feels the need to piss on everyone else's work.
This takes me back. Around 2014, back when I had no idea how to code, I wanted to make websites. I knew that HTML was a language used to make websites, so I tried to learn that. After a few failed attempts at understanding what I could all do with HTML and CSS, I looked into bootstrap. I knew nothing about it, but it was used on my favorite forum at the time, so it must be good. Looking into bootstrap led me to find templates. In fact, this is the exact template I first used for my personal home page.

It was through this template that I fell in love with just making things, even if it wasn't original, or groundbreaking, it felt good to start digging into code, understanding the recipe behind the product. Here I am now, working on full-fledged software, happier than ever in what I'm doing, and it all started because of "this fucking template".
