You don't think it helped ARM?

For years Intel and AMD wanted Android on x86 to happen, and wanted embedded x86 to compete with ARM. It never happened because in small devices SoC is a requirement.

As transistor sizes shrink it becomes more and more insane to divide your system up into two or more dies just because some IP licensing requires it. ARM are swimming against the tide that lifted them for 20 years here.

They seem to be abandoning the embedded market that made them a huge success in favour of trying to enter a super competitive server market where they are only one of many players.
LOL. I just checked and even Arch isn't using 3.0 yet. Although I did once attempt to run a Github-compiled flash replacement and failed because it was linked with 3.0
That's a cop out. The engineers can say no. Many managers are former engineers anyway.
> If this is true, how would a founder or large shareholder ever retire

Bezos doesn't need to sell 100% of his AMZN to retire. Just a few points would be enough to live a lavish lifestyle.

This is a real issue though, and the same problem you're describing exists in the inverse. How was Elon able to buy 100% of the shares of Twitter without prices going to infinity? You go to private buyers and sell large blocks at a discount (or buy large blocks at a premium) to the current market value. Drag-along clauses help ensure there aren't meaningful stragglers once start approaching 100%.
It doesn't seem like a review, and certainly not an audit. My guess would be that it's to get a sense of what is being worked on. If the Tesla engineers have been brief of the plan for Twitter in the future, then they could mostly just sit back and assess if the projects and code presented is relevant to that future.

It is a little weird to not just use the version control, if the plan is to fire the least productive members of the staff, so it's my guess that the plan slightly different. Those who are on their way out are the least talented and those working on project that Elon Musk deems irrelevant. That also explains not using version control, maybe those project still only exist on the developers laptops.

Musk may have the exact same questions that many on HN have had: What are Twitter doing with 7500 employees? Still I don't see them reviewing every single developer, that would be a vast of time. Part of it is most likely just a power move, staged to show that "Musk is taking charge of Twitter".
LLVM IR is usable from any language with a C ABI, Python included. There are bindings for various languages built on its C interface, e.g. OCaml.
Ok.

I think your right, I'll look more at sources vs sensational articles going forward.

I mean, can't you just save up a nest egg so , in case one of the projects get cancelled, you don't end up destitute? Seems like a simple solution
> and I bet the human experience is a big part of their motivation.

Restaurant business is one of the rare where "free market" is really fully functional, and market will quickly self-regulate and award the good ideas, and punish the bad ones.

If your guess was right then the restaurants without it would loose the customers, and niche restaurants with the "human experience" would start popping out attracting those unsatisfied customers. Since this is not happening in China (yet?), then perhaps it's about the difference in the culture and your bet is wrong?
Confronting uncertainty with Truth OR Why use metaphors?
No it helped it.

The first intro classes were boring because
I already knew the entire curriculum.
(Except for the specific programming language that was obscure but easy to learn)

In one obligatory assignment I solved the problem fairly quickly.
Then the professor gave me an F on it because I had not solved it
they way it was meant to be solved.
Which was using the code we had learned so far in her class.

Mine was shorter and faster.

I was not at all pleased.

I ran into her a few days later and she apologized and
said I have done a good done solving it and gave me an A.
What a flip.

Once I got into more advanced classes I learned a lot at the uni.
Care to elaborate? I don't understand what you mean, nor can I even guess.
> If I were a engineer at Twitter, I'd do my absolute best up to the minute I have to leave the premises. Because I would care about the company, my colleagues and most importantly for the >200m people who use Twitter for fun, educational, business and those who depend on it.

I'm an old beard too and this seems (sorry) borderline delusional to me. Even in normal circumstances that kind of devotion to an employer never pays off - financially or emotionally. Companies the size of Twitter do not "care" and the product certainly doesn't. Caring back just sets you up for an inevitable, brusing collision with reality.

In twitter's present situation, and given the well-known personality traits of its new owner, I'd argue that exit planning is the only sane thing for an employee to be doing with their time right now.
>If you need CUDA

The 4090 is a gaming card, and thus optimized for games, not compute.

Buying a card that costs that much and draws that much power to do CUDA is not a choice somebody would make within the realm of sanity.

>don't care about AMD.

AMD has HiP, which is supposedly an open CUDA.

I hear that it's enough to replace calls to "CUDA" to calls to the same function names except "HIP" and then you're set, and has swappable backends, working with both AMD and NVIDIA hardware.

Note that I can't vouch for it, as I haven't tried it, but with the swappable backends I'd switch immediately even if I kept using NVIDIA hardware, just to have assurance of not being under vendor lock-in.
All of Wolfes books are like that. I too have read the books of the Sun twice, and still have no real idea what happened.
Lil: A Scripting Language
> The problem with this inflation is that it only exists because you cannot charge a 3% fee on cash directly. If you could do that then 0% inflation would be optimal.

My understanding is that because the US Dollar is the reserve currency of the world we can devalue it via inflation to effectively take value from other countries by reducing the value of what they hold as well as reducing the "cost" of our debt. Since trades are conducted in dollars, dollars will still be purchased, even though they are a "poorly performing" asset?

So we can effectively fund the war in Ukraine directly with inflation. A tax was levied in the form of inflation, it was tolerated because it's not a "tax," and that tax is an extremely regressive tax on liquid cash. Inflation has effectively made labor cheaper too, making it even more regressive.

I guess what I'm asking is, why is 0 optimal? Isn't it more of a choice with consequences? Isn't optimal inflation probably not 0 if we are the reserve currency?

(I'm definitely throwing around some ideas I barely have a grasp of).

Yeah, our last pentest report had a bunch of "vulnerable ciphers" listed. I responded by showing that Google, Amazon, and the pentesting company's own sites all used the same ciphers that they flagged.
Is it likely that current cars would be compatible with batteries that are that different to not even be Lithium in 10 years?

If I look at say my laptop or phone, they definitely aren't compatible with newer batteries even if it's technically feasible so why would we expect cars to be?
Might be interesting to note that the Somali courts united as a network (officially after 2000 or so) and became a real legal system that could have been the basis for a stable government, until the CIA destroyed the network for excluding its favorite warlords.

Yeah, exactly. Perhaps the OP meant unlisted shares or something like that?
Quite common in rise and grind hustler culture in any industry as well.
PS4/PS5 exploit that is “essentially unpatchable”
SPIR-V is a lot more like minified JavaScript or JVM bytecode than it is like x86 code, at least. In some cases the games' shaders haven't had any optimisation done and you can more or less fully reconstruct the original GLSL, albeit without comments or identifiers.

Also a lot of textual shaders were already unreadable generated code. But for the ones that weren't, it's definitely a loss for those of us trying to peak at the internals of games, indeed :)
Oh, there are plenty of shortcuts. They've just got prices of their own. Problem sets are actually only the second best way to learn the material. The very best way is experiments, which is why any half-decent course comes with a lab section.

Unfortunately, picking problems and setting up experiments is not easy to do. You should actually find that if things have been set up well and you are learning quickly, there is not a lot of repetition. You should be either building on what you already know or revealing another facet of it. You should not be doing things over very often, though some things are very unintuitive (rotating coordinate frames, anyone...) and some repetition there usually helps. Self-directed learning allows for good tuning there and even good delaying... if you are well-regulated. That, of course, is always the hard part with self-directed learning.

The other problem you will face is that your math skills are probably not what you think they are. CS is a branch of discrete mathematics. Physics is the backbone underlying continuous, analytic mathematics... with a bit of higher algebra (symmetries! symmetries everywhere!) sprinkled on top. These domains are different, and it takes either some effort or very great skill to be fluent in both. But physics drove the growth of this type of mathematics, and so chances are good you will find things natural to pick up as you go. (Except for vector fields. Not coincidentally, they came later and were retrofitted onto the physics. They do work and do make things easier, but they're not always intuitive.)

I don't think you're looking at 4–5 years to learn this stuff, unless you are seeking particularly deep understanding and insights, but you're not wrong that it will be some work.
"Qualcomm claims that Arm is telling the OEMs that semiconductor manufacturers will not be able to provide other elements of their Arm-based SOCs that Arm also offers as a licensed product. This includes GPUs, NPUs, and ISP."

From https://www.semianalysis.com/p/arm-changes-business-model-oe...
This is similar to what Smart does in Germany (and Belgium I think).

They're hiring freelancers as employees, and take care of all the invoicing and tax stuff for them. The freelancers can focus on their craft as if they were employees, with no loss in autonomy.
Electric vehicles in a car-shaped form factor is a non-starter, yes.
It's not meant to be used that way, and it doesn't make sense.

This has been the hottest UK summer since 1976; but there have only been about three days on which I wished I had aircon. The rest of the time I didn't even bother with a fan.
So you are an epistemocrat?
Description of the spectrum? That would provide different descriptions for what looks the same. Also, it would require a description of the spectrum of the light source lighting the colored surface.

But it would be great. Two differently produced paints would look the same under all lighting conditions.

If you keep your commits so small, what do you put as the commit message?

Also, this showcases why Git is a terrible system. It contains no semantic information in it and is just a dumb line and text change keeper.
Exactly, holding $1B of TSLA vs S&P500 have very different degrees of liquidity I imagine. So an interesting metric would have all the assets categorized and multiplied by some sort of liquidity factor. Of course in practice that is pretty much impossible to actually accomplish.
I guess we then have to trash every profitable system when original authors leave now...
At what concentration though? At what price does lithium extraction from Sea water become economically viable? It feels to me that this is an entropy problem.
Should have a (2015) tag.
The original article is somewhat wrong or at least misleading regarding the compatibility of Type F (Schuko, German) plugs with Type E (French) sockets:
"Type [...] F plugs will also fit in type E sockets".
Actually, they won't. Type E has a protruding earth prong that sticks out from the socket. To fit, the plug needs a corresponding Opening. Type F has no such opening, so you cannot physically connect.

Also, French Type E has a round outline which won't fit into Type F sockets because of the non-round outline of Type F: There is a notch on the left and right side of the circle, making them incompatible, but the original article doesn't show that, the drawing of type F is simply wrong.

The plug that actually fits (and is common with most new appliances) is CEE 7/7, a hybrid of types E and F:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CEE_7_standard_AC_plugs_and_so...

All in all, the original article is a bad overview and you shouldn't rely on it, because it will be trouble at least in Type-E/F-land. If this is an indication of the overall data quality, avoid using this page for anything.
That isn’t what conflict of interest means. It’s a complete non-sequitur in this context.
"Aye, sir!"

It's not the navy. You're not under orders. They can fire you if they want. But if that's not enough for you: promises and loyalty works boths ways. Suppose you're a veteran at twitter. The company (you thought) joined is not what it is today. You're not bound to any original promises.

Furthermore, you didn't make any promises. You signed a contract, which is only partly binding (check your jurisdiction for details; e.g., where I live, a non-compete clause is frequently overruled by a judge). You didn't promise to increase shareholder value on your mother's life.

Finally, when the interests are substantial enough, ethics trump loyalty and honor. I don't think I have to substantiate that.

Of course, this doesn't hold when you adhere to some kind of "corporatism", where the state and/or corporations decide what's good for you.
The original question I asked was: "How can I define programming struct variables as mathematical notation?".
Same question was asked to Math Stack Exchange, downvoted to -5 and deleted.
Re-asked Link: https://cs.stackexchange.com/questions/149204/how-can-i-defi...

In past, during my master studies, I reach to a Professor about guidance and his response was:

"Unfortunately I cannot do code-checking for you. Please
understand. This is absolutely not my duty, but your supervisor's. I am
sorry."

Since then I pull myself back and ask direct help. But a year later when I told him that I somehow complete my work his summary of response was:

"Generally speaking (concerning your situation as a "lone fighter" without much help from your personal environment) -- admire you for how far you have reached."

Hence, I am experiencing the same situation as a PhD student. I cannot even get real time feedback on the proper terminology from my PhD advisor. He laughs at me saying highschool students even know this and throws his other students' papers or heavy Algorithms book at me to learn from.

Because I was not able to properly explain my code using math notation, he gave me an "F" in my semester progress just to motivate me.

Overall, reaching out for help using "Stack exchange" was the only place I felt safe even though I get scared sometimes to ask questions.

Don't hate the player. Hate da game.
yeah, that worked so well for Philando Castile.
Seems unlikely, he was typical of a cluster of opinion that has become more widespread since. Climate denial wasn't his only thing, for example, he also was a "the real sexism is against men" guy.
Twitter was not profitable last quarter. It rarely has turned a profit. How does an unprofitable business qualify as “stable if unexceptional?” I should think an unprofitable cash burn as long as Twitter’s should count as highly exceptional.
That makes sense. But even if you’re one of the world’s richest people and decide for some reason to retire just on the savings of a FAANG engineer, you still eventually die and your assets must be sold or passed on to others. Someone is going to cash out.

I just don’t understand how once you reach a certain level of wealth you are functionally locked out of ever accessing it except on paper. Someone must have kept their wealth or cashed out (one way or the other) at some point. It feels like, if true, no business would ever exist more than 30 years but clearly there are many businesses that have.
Maybe on some supermodern cars (which probably won't open at all after the crash breaks a few computers in there). But in all cars I have owned, the safety switch was mechanical, not electronic. If it's working, you can lower the window and open from the outside. But generally, children old enough to be able to take care of themselves in a car accident should probably have the safety unlocked already.
There's also sodium, which makes for almost as good batteries for much cheaper.
Well-behaved men rarely make history.
It is supreme when sharing links in a presentation, it is supreme on business cards (since you can quickly get all the details and add them to your contacts), and it is the best thing for wireless access (just point your phone, and you are in).

Menus in restaurants are an exception. Those are better as physical objects.
Can you use any language that contains a JIT compiler?
It’s not just right around the corner, those chips are already in design phase: Jim Keller at Tenstorrent first wanted to license x86, then ARM to build AI chip, but as both said no, he went with RISC-V.

The funniest part is that he licensed the RISC-V chip from SiFive, which is now part of Intel.
>if you value ray tracing

AMD has Ray Tracing, too. In RDNA3, it might even perform really well. Nov 3rd is close, and we'll know by then.

>dlss

Current FSR (open, works on AMD, NVIDIA and Intel) is considered equivalent by reviewers. Differences exist, but neither is better than the other. These differences are now up to individual taste.

>rtx voice

AMD Noise Suppression.

>shadowplay

AMD ReLive. But you should be using OBS: It's better than either, and open source. That's what most streamers use, pro and else.

>good drivers

AMD are better in my experience. YMMV.
A, B, C, F, H, I, K, & L short with a straight conductor as shown on top (dropped). A, C, D, E, F, G, J, L, M, N & O from below. A relative larger ground prong in the middle in a linear config would be a minor fix keeping the bare terminals, but still leaves open the issue of the terminals getting wrapped in a conductor (i.e. wet hair).
What an odd claim, I haven't heard anybody say that we will "run out" of lithium, much less at a particular date.

More likely, we will stop more lithium extraction, and get most of it from recycling old batteries. 20 years from now is probably too soon for that, but 30-40 seems like it could be possible where we can circularized the lithium economy.

(Circularization assumes that per capita needs are not every increasing, and that population levels off, which seems likely to me but definitely not certain)
Could we please keep hackernews free of this mainstream social media madness? I feel like about 50% of people in modern society are insane to the core, consuming whatever next "viral" thing is thrown at them, mindlessly.
Maybe Musk is planning something completely different with the Twitter tech.

I’ve experienced it once in the UK and either the phone network reception was really bad or the restaurant’s website was ultra slow so it didn’t work.

While we are on the subject… The worst app crime is the effing calmac ferry app. All the timetables would amount to about 100kb of data which is updated usually once a year months in advance. Phone reception is non existent or spotty in a lot of the Highlands and Islands, but when you go to the app to check a timetable it tries to download a PDF file! every time you open a timetable page!! It’s a reasonably rare situation where it makes sense to have an app not a website.
Truss's phone hacked by Kremlin so compromised it's locked in 'secure location'
The 4090s perf/$ is much better than the 4080, so if you are using the card for anything except gaming it makes a lot of sense. For gaming, yeah, you'd need triple 4k screens on a latest AAA game to actually need than kind of performance.
Sincere question: do you believe that Twitter (the business) is honourable in respect of its employees? Is Elon Musk honourable?
That's just run-of-the-mill corruption like you would find anywhere else. Every country has this. Politicians will be politicians.

It hardly supports the thesis above. Germany is not rotten to the core by corruption. It's not a constant hindrance to someone trying to get things done.
In general these sort of studies can be generalized to other species as the genetic mechanisms in animals are similar. This study has more to do with the relationship of genetic, environmental and pre-natal environmental and individuality so none of it is really specific to fish.

Of course, humans are still a different species and our offspring have a much more complex ontogenesis and so I would venture and say our individuality development is even more sensitive to pre-natal environmental, post-natal and genetic factor changes.

But ultimately, we are all animals here so we are governed by very similar broad rules.
I have a different issue with the custom scrollbar, although it's no less annoying - when I press anywhere near it (android), it auto-jumps, losing my place.

Strikes me that it's only in the last decade or so that everyone reckons Ukraine is in Europe. Eastern Europe used to be that region between the West German border and the border of the Soviet Union. I've never considered Russia to be part of Europe.
HiP (unfortunately) has very limited support on AMD cards, unlike CUDA which runs on ALL NVidia hardware.
I think advanced fortran compilers already used IRs by late 60s, early 70s.

Most compilers in the 80s already used some form of non-ast IRs: Generalised portable instructions, cfg representations, etc. I'd say that back then people were experimenting with various forms of IRs for optimization purposes.

By 90s it was typical for compilers to have several IRs. Gcc belongs to this compiler generation.

2000s is the time when IRs standardised around 2-3 SSA-like forms, which made it possible to do most optimisation work on this level only.

That's not entirely true. There is a SW / mechanical/ test & integration team somewhere who was employed due to this feature that I'm sure very much appreciated this feature. There is a product manager who got to add a line item to their list of accomplishments and a sales team lead show get to draft instructional material to all the dealers, again justifying his existence.

You are aware that this is happening locally on your phone, right?

This is one of those cases where I think it's weird when people are so focused on cost. The environmental cost is extremely high to mine lithium and externalities aren't priced in to the price of lithium. We should be doing everything we can to reuse the lithium we've already mined.
Depressing, but sadly to be expected out of India.
True, but the price is very reasonable. Works very well outside of my home. Never need to remember to apply updates and I cant unplug it.
