RDNA3 has memory/cache chiplets providing 3.5Tbps. The 0.9Tbps of much further distance chip to chip conmevtivity here is highly impressive. Interesting to note that RDNA3 links are only 10Gbps, they just have extreme interposer design with hundreds upon hundreds of incredibly small wires (resulting in stupendously high bit-efficiency); not something a multi-GPU design can do, and hence Nvidia doing 100Gbps links.

Given where ethernet is (on the way to terabit ethernet) Im not surprised Nvidia is here, but it's still cool to see.

The onboard SHARP processor on the NVswitch is very cool to read about. Given how much ML involves crunching many matrixes/tensors then adding the results, being able to parallelize the crunching and have a central aggregator makes sense. In general I hope we see an emerging presence of extremely high-fabric connectivity cpus & gpus that can serve as DPUs like this, as central coordinators. Thinking of this less as a switch (which it certainly is too, with it's vast bank of PHYs and massive crossbar) but more as an io cemtric computer is, I think, deserved.
Sorry about that! My audio recording skills are subpar. Yes, likely my next video will be a walkthrough of some of this code. I’ll do my best with the audio on that one.
On the other hand, I don't read Reason, Quillette, or Jacobin precisely because their thinking is so sloppy. Sharpening your ideas doesn't require reading Ken Ham's books. Reading drivel, no matter how well written, is a waste of time.
> The current list of most-downloaded tracks on iTunes is filled with the names of bands from the previous century, such as Creedence Clearwater Revival and The Police.

No wonder; that was just great music; the bands, their performance, and the songs had individuality and charisma and stay in the memory; from the current "industry products" I neither can remember the band nor the title of the album, nor can I tell the songs apart.

Sure[1], which is why I periodically check what standard of living I can expect if I emigrate to any of the countries I've visited.

I'm frequently shocked that in places like the US it is considered normal to have a 30yr mortgage (I took a 15 year one, and am on track to pay it of in 10 years).

Most/all of the mainstream brands do have EVs already available or coming soon. A lot of them have gotten over the weird EV stylings of yore and made very approachable designs.

Ford: F150 and Mustang Mach-e

BMW has several

Mercedes has several in the EQ range

Toyota has finally gotten on the bandwagon as does Lexus.

VW has EVs for VW, Audi and Porsche.

GM and Chevy have a few models lined up.

Hyundai and Kia both have multiple EVs.

I’m sure I’ve missed a brand but I’d be curious which brand you’re waiting for?
> I hope they improve ROCm, and add support for normal GPUs, instead of only 6800xt+.

Also, AMD should finally support ROCm under Windows. Currently, the only application known by me that uses ROCm under Windows is Blender, and they use a beta version of ROCm from AMD with Windows support for building the respective Blender releases that is not available publicly.
For irc that just seems like a UI difference. Of course you can have announce only channels in irc, people have been doing that forever.

The big thing is that discord shows you all related channels on the project. If you are on libera, there isn't the same discoverability. So in a sense announcement only channels are much less useful because users cant find them (not to mention lack of history if you dont have a bouncer).
We are actually a low trust society.

We don’t trust our governments.

By we I mean crypto believers (yes me included)

Impossible to fix. The more diverse a society is, the lower the trust it has in its governments. We don’t want to pick up the tabs caused by the problems introduced by “the others” in our diverse society. For example, student loan forgiveness, affirmative action, diversity hiring, stimulus checks, petty theft forgiveness, etc.
The real question would be "what if he's right".

Imagine there was an island discovered with some sort of transitional, Homo Erectus style people. Let's say they can't, for organic reasons, exceed IQ 50 - can speak, wildly efficient in hunting and foraging, can't figure out 3rd grade maths, can't learn letters, can't understand how seeds work.

What would be a reasonable policy towards such people?
I have a bunch of different cameras, nest, Wyze, Amazon - none have on/off switches. Just plug in USB for power and they start up.
COP27 ends in tears and frustration: ‘The world will not thank us’
I don't think so there's some really nice options like the bolt out there, the biggest issues with adoption is probably customers needing reassurance regarding things like charging network coverage which will charge over time

I'd be willing to be that in 10 or so years most new cars sold to consumers will be EVs from the 'mainstream' automakers
Why would they do that when they can't even meet Tesla demand?
Very cool! 8 years is pretty wild, I could see still being at it had I not found my wife in Santiago. I ended up in 50 countries over 4+ years before taking my Chilean wife back with me to Canada in 2015.

We need more desktop environment / "OS" websites out there.

As soon as any EV actually threatens Tesla’s spot on top of the premium mass market, then Tesla will whip out advanced battery tech that they are sitting on that will enable them to crush the competition in terms of range/weight ratios and pricing flexibility that gives them.

I’m not saying this as a fanboy, rather as someone who is willing to acknowledge the lead in batteries that Tesla has on everyone else.

Tesla’s moat is in their battery tech, and I think that they will be able to maintain this moat for at least five years, perhaps more. They need to catch up in manufacture and design in order to remain competitive, but I think that they can do that.
Many mainstream brands have EVs now, does has done the most imo having their iconic f150 and mustang go full ev.

Ford has f150 and mustang EVs, bmw and Mercedes have multiple lines, toyota has lines coming up, Honda/dodge/etc have cars coming out in 2023.

How much does it cost to send $1000 USD to South America using BTC and have them convert it to say, real, e.g. $1000USD to real via BTC vs other fiat methods. Using Wise you'd pay $15USD. Curious to know how much USD you'd pay with Bitcoin.

Interestingly I wouldn't say it seemed so. AIDS devastated the political base of the politician in question and people who fought for the right to treatment were also politically popular. I think it may have just been a strange ideological bent in a specific set of political circle. Thankfully these ideas and policies have been pretty much entirely consigned to history now. The consequences were terrible though, nearly a million children were orphaned because of both parents dying of AIDS. I can't find a specific source to cite a specific number, they all reference much higher numbers across the whole Southern African region.
Rocket equation.

Batteries still don't match the power density of liquid hydrocarbons, so large, heavy trucks with useful ranges end up with large, expensive batteries. The Rivian R1T has a 135KWh battery for 314 miles of range and starts at $69,000, while the Chevy Bolt has a 66KWh battery for 259 miles of range and starts at $26,595.

The R1T has a mighty curb weight of 7,148 lbs, almost three thousand pounds more than the notoriously oversized 2023 Ford F-150.

Well, not only the physics, but the planet and its history.

USD is fiat currency backed only by a rogue gov who has sunken itself into $42 trillion of debt ... how does that gov stay afloat ? it prints fake USD which floods the market resulting in inflation

look at the value of USD over past 100 years judged against a basket of commodities https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2014/article/one-hundred-years-...

value of USD is now 1 percent of its value less that 100 years ago and continually falls in relative value to commodities needed by the population

the value proposition of bitcoin: it is not issued nor managed by a mafia masquerading as the non governmental non reserve holding non bank called the Federal Reserve Bank which put USA in a choke hold death spiral back in 1913

besides BTC is independent of any country so if say USA fed gov makes stupid laws against it well those holders are free to move offshore

do yourself a favor and research the percentage of total global financial assets held in offshore tax havens ... those financial parasites should be the target of our concern not bitcoin fans

You answered your own question.

It’s an ad to sell the adoption of EVs. Trade groups, press, PR campaigns acting on the behalf of entire industries are a thing.
I don't believe every country in Africa have lots of resources.

What lead? 99% of their battery volume is coming from Panasonic or CATL or other chinese manufacturer, Their 4680 cell has same power density as panasonic as of today and they are only producing a tiny tiny volume today.
> EU membership means rule from Brussels.

This was the Brexit lie, and it's not really a sustainable argument post-Brexit.

> Joining can take years, in the meantime it would require severe austerity measures to stabilize the new state's finances.

A referendum wouldn't require leaving immediately; again, see Brexit. Negotiate an EU entrance while preparing for exit.

> The SNP has never resolved many of the open issues that caused them to lose last time.

Again, didn't stop Brexit.

The break key unless you held down control was only a soft break though.

Your program would still be in memory with an \>OLD command.

As long as it was a basic prog, the machine code loaded *RUN was lost and had to be reloaded from tape, yes.

A pain for games but I don’t really recall accidentally pressing the break key much it was out of the way up right.

> If you’re regularly encountering or writing code that only works by accident or doesn’t handle important use cases, it isn’t the fault of a TODO.

You're confusing a symptom with the root cause.

TODO items are symptoms of a problem, one which can and does often manifest in code that is brittle and only works by coincidence.

> A TODO should document something that has been considered and would potentially be an improvement, but is not currently necessary.

Not really. A TODO is just a comment someone decided to add because at the moment they spotted something that might require some work, but couldn't be bothered to track it as a work item. Just that, nothing more.

> It isn’t supposed to be a flag that says “warning: I’m checking in broken code.” I

Except it actually is supposed to be a flag that states "yeah I know this is broken code but trust me I'll get around to really fix it at some time between not now and never"

I've lost count of the age-old TODO items I stumble upon on projects I've worked on that served no purpose other than either stating "I think this needs fixing but I can't be bothered to track work items in a ticket" or "I just need my PR to go through, trust me bro I'll do this right once I remember to fix my shit"

Mine has 6kB of raw text, making it under 10kB would be difficult. Unless I split it into multiple pages artificially, one per project rather than the collapsible sections I have now.

Still, those 6kB of text turn into 44kB of HTML with the markup, I should probably do something about that.
The easiest thing would be to buy some flash, desolder the existing flash and install their own flash. Certs won’t matter then.
Not to be pedantic, but smoking is actually the new smoking. Its just now being normalized through weed (which is rationalized as healthy or cool) and vaping (which is seen as less harmful than smoking cigarettes). The sheer number of smoke shops has exploded.
Don't delete your account - it'll only get reused by someone else and cause confusion.

In January 2016 - for the same reasons as Phil: Twitter's blind eye towards Trump - I stopped using Twitter. But I didn't delete my account, I instead ran a script to delete all the tweets I had posted leaving it blank, and also unfollowed everyone. In the description I have a link to my website. So Twitter maintains my presence but doesn't get any benefit from my usage. I also did this with Facebook to a lesser extent just leaving connections to family members who wouldn't understand my disappearance. But again, I deleted all photos and posts.

Over the past 8 years I found it useful to post once or twice before deleting them after. Twitter isn't going away (sadly) so maintaining a stub presence is useful.
1) Pick your goals
2) Divide them into subgoals, then divide those subgoals into subsubgoals.
3) Repeat step 2 until you have something concrete and actionable, something that you can do TODAY

Bonus tips:
1) Learn how to learn (books like Make it stick, a mind for numbers etc), use spaced repetition software like Anki.
2) Prioritize sleep, diet and exercise.
3) Feelings of inadequacy never go away so relax and enjoy the ride.
Have you hear about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerrymandering

I think, some countries are broken by design, others, because of technical progress, have to change their borders and/or internal structure, but not many lucky enough to do this in time.
Hmm. It is an interesting question. That said, does hype have to be justified though? I always considered hype to be its own force closer to marketing than commercial viability. Hype either is or isn't and it seems we are reaching the point where it may actually die off as a fair amount of people lose some cash. Naturally, it is hard to tell with any kind of certainty.

<<is still flailing around for legitimacy.

Here we disagree. The governments are seizing it, regulating it, trying to copy it for its own purposes. It already is legitimate simply because it is has people using it.
> Welcome to the car business, Elon. And it’s not going to get any easier.'

Doesn't Tesla make more money per car than anyone else except, maybe Ferrari?
I don't quite understand the strategy of sitting and waiting on a technology competitive advantage. Surely, to get the technology ramped up and integrated into their manufacturing process isn't an instantaneous thing?

I do agree that Tesla's entire value is in their battery tech. Their 'premium' cars are actually about on par with Korean and Japanese mid-tier vehicles in terms of quality at best, by every objective measure. But their pricing is luxury level simply due to the cost of batteries.

While the author may never go back and fix his code later, that doesn’t mean that everybody else does the same.

If you never have to come back to “fix it”, was it actually wrong to begin with?

Personally, in my own career, I’ve found this “come correct” mindset is used to justify unnecessarily flexible solutions to allow for easier changes in the future … changes that 90% of the time, never actually materialize.

I held this mindset too when I was younger. Then I got tired of seeing how all my clever abstractions never actually got used the way I intended, and decided to get smarter about it.
Cape Town was absolutely gorgeous when I visited, but the level of fortification of normal homes was definitely striking, coming from the US. You don’t see a lot of cement walls topped with glass shards here.
I always liked Cisco documentation, besides the documentation for each product in great detail, as it was in the 80's, everything in PDF, you also have links to manuals of a bunch of technology that the product support, just not the product. Well structure and organized. I miss that in many products and software nowadays.
The chargers and the heads up display/software nav independent of FSD place them far ahead of anyone else. People complain a lot on HN about the touchscreen but it’s really good and most car systems are really bad.

That and their range/performance per dollar is really competitive. They’re dominating the space for a reason imo.

The other car companies ignored EVs for a decade and are still hamstrung by dealerships in the US (which are really awful). I don’t expect them to be much of a threat.
This presentation has great content but it's let down somewhat by the guy's presentation style.

Agriculture is about 1/3rd of water usage in California, we have more efficient irrigation schemes available that are only used in some places. They even have co-benefits like using less fertilizer which saves money as well as being good for the environment. Can even help the crops grow better if they get the right amount of water.

But just as people won't buy EVs if they're allowed to pollute for free, as it'll make the EV seem expensive, it doesn't make business sense to install modern irrigation systems if you're paying close to zero for your water. This is where it becomes political and about legal claims to water rather than tech though.
Other than Toyota and Dodge, what mainstream car maker isn’t offering an EV today? You have Ford, Nissan, Kia, Hyundai, BMW, GM, VW, Porsche all with EV offerings.

As a South African, I have a engineer friend working for a company that does solar for places like retail complexes. They have a lot of business.

Also there is a widely used app for load shedding timetables called "EskomSePush" which is a pun on "Eskom se poes" roughly translates to "Eskom's cunt" with poes being very vulgar and offensive.
The last time that Airbus made a plane that needed modification to existing airfields (the A380), few airports or airlines did it and bought the plane. And that was a lot simpler than changing the fundamental fueling infrastructure.

It has taken, what, two decades and counting to even get unleaded avgas approved, let alone banning the leaded version? Why would a more complex change be a feasible one-company effort?
At least they can be unplugged.

kllrnohj already wrote that Vulkan has no predefined source code language for shaders. I can imagine that the SPIR-V code of these shaders could have been hand-optimized by some team at AMD, so a textual reprsentation of this binary code is the version that the engineers at AMD work on.

Also: the license of the repository is MIT license, so you are free to reverse-engineer these shaders and port them to a high-level language of your choice.
