I don’t think that’s the main reason. The article lists a few things that, I think the main reason is that they made several parts of the CPU behave identical to x86. The M1 and M2 chips:

- can be told to do total store ordering, just as x86 does

- have of a few status flags that x86 has, but regular arm doesn’t

- can be told to make the FPU behave exactly as the x86 FPU

It also helps that ARM has many more registers than x86. Because of that the emulator can map the x86 registers to ARM registers, and have registers to spare for use by the emulator.

Its been mentioned in other places but to summarize:

* this is a cost cutting measure and not primarily driven by the need to cull "low performing" employees.

* point of the company is not to guarantee employment or even keep the lights on; its to maximize the stock price (at least according to the prevailing worldview, which I disagree with). Investors use the stock price as a proxy for their belief in a company's future. If the stock price is high, company invests and expands, if its low, it contracts until the investors/markets believe it can generate value.

* layoffs scare the employees that remain into working harder. The sad truth is that unless you're really exceptional, this doesn't really matter. But they will likely see a productivity boost for a little while. Again, this is pretty short term.

The major thing that people overlook in note-taking is "habit". Doesn't matter if you use Notepad, Obsidian or just plain pen&paper, the single most thing that matters is that you do it consistently. And like you said, consistent note-taking is a great cognitive exercise and has long term benefits.

Excitement about what you’re doing brings excitement to others too and many great ideas come from people tinkering with side projects and the like.

Imagine thinking that starting a new company is a bad idea. It might not be easy, but the engine of progress is the birth of new firms, not the monopolization of markets through a handful of them. The vast majority of jobs are provided by small to medium-sized businesses, not companies like Twitter or Stripe. This is particularly true in Europe, but it's quite universal. We need new companies, even if some fail (or even most).
They must have PPP enabled, so price depends on the country. I see "regular price" as 169.99$, but now on sale 40off for $99. It really is great value for the money. I hope they stay on this path. I don't mind paying for the upgrades every couple of years.

Yes? So what's the important difference between cryptocurrencies and traditional currencies?
Why would you have to force anything with rebase? you rebase your feature branch against main to rewind it on top of it and clean up history so you can do a clean fast forward merge. Squashing is bad for anything non trivial, you want small independent commits: easy to review, easy to revert, easy to blame if something goes wrong.

This is true now and we don't need a government guarantee of housing to make that happen. What I don't like is people who want to live in a specific place they would like to live, and wanting subsidies from others so that they can live there at below-market prices.
If you regularly need to review 10000 lines of code per PR your dev workflow is seriously broken. It‘s got nothing to do with git and its implementation‘s complexity.

Sometimes features do require large changes. But usually you can break a feature into different parts (e.g. database, backend, frontend) and merge them in separately.
The chess experts were wrong qualitatively. They were saying that best play was about intuition and feel, that computational power would never replicate regardless of its scale. (Data on Star Trek always lost chess matches implausibly.) Turned out that brute force calculation thirty moves deep does in fact outperform anything a human can foresee.

The same thing happened for both Go and Starcraft in the next decades, the experts said computers couldn't replicate enough spatial feel, and then they did. And now it's happening for AI art. Enough computational power and a sufficiently well-trained neural network can indeed exceed anything a human can do.

AI has been roughly doubling in performance every year or two, for quite some time. We just never noticed when it went from 0.0001% to 0.0002% of human capability. This is the year that it doubles from 10% to 20% and everybody notices. And there's not a lot of doublings left until it shoots past 100%.

Rosetta 1 had a ticking time bomb. Apple was licensing it from a 3rd party. Rosetta 2 is all in house as far as we know.

> With the fact that you got the demand/offer law not in your favor, these salaries will definitely go down.

Doubt it. Everybody in my current team has several offers to change jobs with 5-15% increase in salary. Some from the same (American) company for which we work right now (but they don't know that cause we're hired through 2 subcontracting companies ;) ).
Sales for v1 at $25 were pretty common, but even then if you want two pieces of software on two platforms that's $100 already.
While this is true to some extent, trying to be overly generic and solving for all cases is the root of the analysis-parslysis. I end up solving just the part that's needed for the problem in hand but accepting meaningful compromises and trade offs when faced with this issue.
I've long argued that it was the "creative destruction" of the dot com crash that made so many of the FAANGs possible.

For instance, Amazon in Seattle benefited as thousands of engineers found themselves out of work in 2000 and 2001.

In addition, AWS was largely inspired by the fact that Sun Microsystems refused to cut their pricing. Amazon was using a lot of Oracle databases and Sun hardware, and when Sun wouldn't negotiate their prices down, Bezos began to figure out A Better Way.

Bezos was particularly irked because there was a flood of practically new Sun hardware available (due to the crash) but Sun wouldn't negotiate on price, despite the market being awash in high quality used hardware.

Basically Bezos didn't want to spend $80,000 on a new Sun server, but he also didn't want to run hardware that was used.

This is sage advice here. Never fall into the trap that HR is your advocate, despite what they tell you.
It is an unforgivable crime that Mercurial has been muscled out of the consciousness. It's so much better, on literally every level. Implicit branching + the ability to truly divorce the repo's state from the actual files on the disk (in a simple way, I'm sure you can do the same with git, but it's going to involve a lot of subcommands and flags) are simply too good. Every time I have to use git, I feel like I'm fighting it. I end up coming up with a command that has ten flags and a subcommand that I've never heard of until just now. And when I try to ask people who know better, they agree it's the best way to do it.
You would need a hybrid architecture with a NN generating guesses and a "watchdog" shutting down errors.

Neural models are basically universal approximators. Machine code needs to be obscenely precise to work.

Unless you're doing something else in the backend, it's just a turbo SIGILL generator.

That's the dumbest thing ever. A presidential alert basically means "nukes incoming."
You could create an alias doing something like a "git commit --fixup <sha1>" and then a "git rebase --autosquash <sha1>~".
Last time I tried to completely switch to Capture One, there were major features missing. I currently use both because there are things that Capture One does a lot better than Lightroom (eg. skin tones, tethered shooting)

The biggest one for me is the fact that you can't manually remove chromatic aberration. If your lens is not in their database with a profile, you can't do it at all. The database is also very small; if you are using anything old or with no electronic, it's likely not gonna be there.

After initially launching UseSQL, and using it on a large number of my other projects I discovered another area where this product could be applied to another use case. Data extraction and scraping from websites.

Prior to this new addition, I would either learn another scraping API or since I know Python build out a new scraper each time. At this point that's a thing of the past since now all I need to know is SQL.

I've already started using this to send myself email digests of a number of sites, such as HN, that I actively read so in other words, haven't really scratched the surface of how a person could be using this feature.

Please be kind, but me know what you think. I added a demo so you could try it yourself if you click through to the link.

Well that’s why I mentioned in-store testing would likely only be useful for low end lenses.

For mid range to high end lenses it would probably be impossible to confirm the actual layer count without destructive testing.

Of course it would be reputation and gut-feel-perception based for most buyers in any case.

However, for the higher end stuff, gut-feel-perception probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. Human eyes can’t perceive the strength of lamination between layers, for example.

So it would be entirely reputation based at the higher end.

Which probably explains why high end glasses are vastly more expensive then Warby Parker and other discount places…

Dead-pool reservoirs on the Colorado river due to what appears to be a historical megadrought don't bode well for the future of hydropower in the region - but it's also a region ideally suited for solar PV, so in the long run electricity supply won't be a major problem. Water supply, especially for regional agriculture, is another story.

As far as the renewable generation numbers in the USA, they're being absolutely crushed by China's rapid deployment of wind and solar - understandable, as China has to import essentially all its gas and oil.

China remains, as I pointed out a couple of years ago, the only scaled manufacturer of many of the technologies necessary for decarbonization. Further, it’s expanding its market share in those technologies rapidly."

Which seems bizarre to me. Cutting costs just leads to hollowing out your expertise and institutional knowledge (see Intel) to the point where it eventually becomes far more difficult or even impossible to grow. This is the time to reorganize, restrategize, reprioritize and solve long-standing cultural/organisational issues, not fire people who could potentially help the company through tough times.

Oh well. It's FB, I'm okay with it if they sink the ship.

I haven't seen inside very many, but when I was at university I participated in bargaining with the execs there; I've also interacted with execs of the small- and medium-sized companies I've worked at. Regardless of the purpose and scale of the organization, they all seemed to be emitting the same blandishments, always loosely correlated to context...

From personal experience school is much better (and more fun) later in life, especially if you're genuinely interested in what it is you are studying. If you can afford it, or even better - get your company to pay, it's definitely worthwhile. You may have to pace yourself, as taking on a lot of credits and full-time work at the same time is not easy.
I understand your point. As I said, I would have made the same point when I was half my age. I understand it all too well. Younger me would not have believed older me either.

I'm not overestimating my own prowess. I've done it before, moved into management, executive, and now back into primarily technical / tech leadership. I've had multiple perspectives on this. I've also had plenty of technically exceptional employees who could, in abstract, do the technical part of this as well.

What you're clear underestimating is the organizational and human part of this. You can't just hire a CEO, and hope they'll magically solve it for you, anymore than you can't just hire a random engineering grad and hope they'll build you a self-driving car. And as I said, simply handing someone money, no matter how good they are and how much money you hand them will rarely result in any important technical problems solved without the right organizational structures.

And while there are some technically hard problems, like self-driving cars, that's not the majority of unicorns. I've also worked at a company that solved a problem of similar complexity as several of the ones you listed (with about 20 employees, and about a decade of funding). That one had *both* hard technical and human problems. Without solving the human problems, it wouldn't have had the right 20 employees, nor the decade of sustained funding. And those employees would not have solved the right set of hard problems to make an economically-viable entity.

You're completely missing where the hard parts of making a successful organization lie, or why they're hard.
A rebase creates new commits from old commits semi-automatically. Git then has no permanent record of the old commits, and even if you want to get back to them right away it requires some delicate git surgery.

This is why you can't generally share work using a rebase workflow.

It is not a big deal in practice in most every case, but in a version control system it is a little bit odd that rolling back such a fundamental operation isn't a first class feature.
First, my goal is to update it frequently. Then, I wrote a book about React (in French) three years ago, you’d be surprised to see how relevant it still is ;)

You don't need to go as far as to demand detailed central plans, as if the parent poster is a Soviet tankie. All you have to do is get rid of the already-extant central planning regime that the US has, which is specifically designed to keep land expensive.

Or, in other words: "housing is a human right" does not need to be construed as a positive obligation.

Even if we decided on positive-freedom housing rights, it doesn't mean giving everyone a California beachfront property. This is the thing a lot of Americans don't get about positive rights in other countries: when they exist, it just means that the country is going to use tax money to pay for and provide that good. This works for the same reason that welfare programs work: the existence of a large buyer, even one that's lowballing, provides price stability to suppliers.

California beachfront property can remain expensive, but the houses behind it should be allowed to build up to whatever density that the market will support.
> Rosetta 2 translates the entire text segment of the binary from x86 to ARM up-front.
