ASRock Steel Legend runs at 4800(?)
https://old.reddit.com/r/ASRock/comments/xtt3ol/x670e_steel_...
His initial 5200 was actually unstable, a comment said he went to 4800, not sure whether 4800 is stable

Gigabyte board could run 128gb "stable" at 5200 (need to expand comment thread near bottom for that)

Expanded comment about 5200 stable, and link to benchmark with it:

TUF X670E can only run 128gb at 4400, not 4800
https://old.reddit.com/r/Amd/comments/ya3gxx/psa_dont_buy_an...

On ROG Strix X670, commenter could run 4x16gb at 6000 (6400 was untable).
The commenter previously could only do 5200; BIOS update made 6000 work.
OP with 4x32gb was stable at 4400, not 5000, didn't say about 4800.

Are there any predominantly rural areas that aren't being depopulated? Which I feel sad to even say out loud. My grandparents' lovely small town in the south faced this, both from Walmart and from the young moving to get jobs. Actually my other grandparents in another small town in another state also had this too. Both are 30mins away from bigger towns.
All US states are actually California, just like all countries are actually America. No company has enough time to give extra rights to only Californians and Europeans.
Even $50 would probably be decent compensation for most YouTubers. It would probably reign in false claims dramatically, and reduce the numbers of appeals enough that real humans can check each one.
I suspect a lot of ADHD people become programmers because software can compliment the countless fleeting interests we have. That said, programming as a career is still more challenging to us because non-ADHD programmers are more likely to succeed with numerous responsibilities and more complex and boring tasks. The more an ADHD programmer advances, the fewer of his immediate peers will have ADHD.

This is one of the reasons why I will refuse a job title that is greater than senior engineer. I know in my heart of hearts that being a staff or lead engineer will be bad for everyone. I'm not even particularly stellar as a senior engineer, but I can at least sustain it.

Reaching this point can be astonishing to the undiagnosed ADHD programmer. For the first handful of years into their career, their shortcomings were either dismissed as inexperience or covered for by coping mechanisms. In my experience, the coping mechanisms start to buckle once you're a senior level programmer.

Get a diagnosis ASAP if you suspect you have ADHD. Medication and other things can definitely help. I also think there's nothing wrong in figuring out just how much mental capacity you have to give to your job and not exceeding it, even if that means rejecting prestige.
If they're rewriting html, I guess sanitizing css won't be beyond them.
I have personally taken a tour of the NIF at Livermore. The guide was an old hand, who constantly remarked about the efforts of NIF towards "stockpile stewardship," ie the maintenance of the US arsenal of nuclear weapons. It seemed like NIF was all about the stockpile stewardship first, and fusion research was a secondary consideration.

The capability of the NIF to get positive energy from the energy that they impart on the Hohlraum itself is neat, but I constantly discount any milestones that Livermore/NIF report, because the inertial confinement approach has such higher barriers to commercialization than tokamak style approaches, that I just consign it to "boondoggle" in my head.

Yeah, the lasers could be 20x more efficient, and yeah, they probably could figure out how to pump 10s of targets into the chamber per second, but the energy extraction is just completely missing from the considerations. The engineering challenges are a whole 'nother level for NIF, a big barrier to usability.
This fascinating article goes into more detail on the reasons why: https://acoup.blog/2022/08/26/collections-why-no-roman-indus...

They correctly dismissed it as a curiosity because it was far too inefficient to do anything useful with the amounts of fuel they would have had available. They couldn't have made a more efficient one because they didn't have any idea how to construct reasonably uniform pressure-bearing cylinders.

Real innovation didn't happen until much later on, at British coal mines because 1. there was lots of fuel because it's already at a coal mine, 2. there was a useful task for the work in pumping water out of the mine, and 3. materials technology had advanced enough to make it possible to construct an engine that did a useful amount of work from a manageable amount of fuel.
Yes, that's fine. English speakers regularly use "handful" to mean "about five".

As a random example I googled "handful of buildings" and got >700,000 hits, e.g. "Charnley-Persky House is one of a handful of buildings that display the combined talents of Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright".

You can even have "a handful" of non-physical things: "a handful of ideas" gets almost 5 million hits on Google, e.g. "We started with a handful of ideas that sprung out of our collective experiences on social media."
They'd still be getting only ~1/4 of power input with a 20% efficiency laser.
There's no such thing as de-globalization or "globalization is dead".

Even in this very best case example of a factory in the US, a country large enough that it can self-sustain in some ways, it is 100% globalized.

The 5 million little parts that go into the factory are sourced from all across the world. As the article suggests, education comes from Taiwan. Rare earth minerals come from Africa and China. The machine comes from ASML, which in turn sources parts from all across the world.

But yes, do go ahead and slap a "Made in the USA" on it if that makes you feel better.
Crypto Was Always Smoke and Mirrors Fall of FTX shocked everyone except this guy
YouTube's copyright controls have been a constant sore spot for creators for years at this point. YouTube/Google seems uninterested in addressing the problems. It seems that improvement is either imperceptibly small or just outright doesn't exist.

What will it actually take for this to improve? Copyright legislation (e.g., DMCA) roll back or alteration? Content creators and/or viewers leaving the platform over it? Something else?
This is by far the most interesting part of the story:

> Refuelling was handled by lowering a hook via a winch down to a fuel truck that would trail the plane on a straight stretch of road, usually twice a day. The winch would then pull up a fuel hose from the truck, which would be used to fill the belly tank in around three minutes. The same system was used to regularly pull up food, oil and other supplies like towels and water for shaving and bathing.

Midair refueling is the realm of air forces and these guys did it with a hook on a winch.
If it's done in a reCAPTCHA like way, it can be done fairly efficiently and for cheap. In fact Scale AI does just this, they do manual labor operations such as captioning images, as an API. Here's their product for image labeling: https://scale.com/rapid.

Unstable Diffusion is also doing their captioning like how I mentioned, with groups of volunteers as well as hired individuals.
Yeah, people have died this way. I think the case in San Jose (IIRC) was a dab taken standing up, with a metal radiator behind them.

Sit down, take it easy.
It is the same general location about half a mile from home where I flip over. This is to ensure location from cell tower triangulation does not identify my home and therefore me.

No, none of this is how ML models work either, unless you're leaving humans in those shirts lying around town.

The model would not be trained against "just shirt" == "human". It would just be more samples from the surveillance cameras of actual humans walking around being labeled properly. (The huge assumption here is that the shirt actually worked in the first place, which would only happen against a specific model, and the article doesn't provide any useful insights into anything.)
OP is not being literal.

They're more-or-less stating that any "tools" would need to be set to such an extreme level of annoyance to have impact in the average case that they would undermine flow/"deep work".
Consider having just the tiniest bit of empathy for other people.

In the end, who cares if they write "was good at work" on your tombstone.
Why not try for "helped people when they needed it"?

As a severely ADHD person who manages a lot of people and managers, if i saw a manager acting like this, this sort of "don't care at all about anything but the output" is not a thing i would generally reward.

Certainly people need to be able to do the job, but there is a different between trying to lift people up and help them do it, and just burning through people to try go get things done.
Whenever they don't want Congress up their ass. Four things can simultaneously be true, despite seeming contradictory:

1) Prudent opsec against nation-state adversaries dictates that you assume 0 time for them to have a tap on a device.

2) In reality, it takes >0 time, because people processes aren't instantaneous.

3) Intelligence services sometimes break the letter of the law.

4) Intelligence services usually follow the law, because it's less hassle.
We can burn that bridge when we come to it.
Electric airplanes are already used in training in Europe. They are less expensive to operate on an hourly basis just because of fuel/energy cost. But they are probably also cheaper to overhaul; the Emrax motors in Pipistrels are relatively simple, and it would probably cost less to buy two and swap one out (sending the other one back to Emrax for a new bearings) than to do one thermal engine overhaul. And almost no downtime!

(I work on another electric airplane which will take flight in 2023.)
Thanks for sparing me. https://xkcd.com/386/
China is more accurately described as mercantilist. But in any case Xi Jinping has achieved absolute power, surrounded himself with yes-men and is busy dismantling China's economic success with his draconian zero-Covid policies that have done what no amount of US government pressure could: force Apple to move production to India and Vietnam instead because unreliable supply-chains is one thing it cannot abide, unlike human-rights abuses.
You’re using a utility and you must accept the terms to use that utility. There’s probably some verbiage in your carrier agreement about it.

You can’t disable 911/112 just because you don’t like it either.
CoffeeZilla has done a really great job of following up with this line of questioning but on a technical point I am not sure that this gets him where he thinks it does.

From what I have seen I do not think that FTX held itself out to formally be a "segregated accounts company" and the example CoffeeZilla uses of a bank is a bad example because that is exactly how banks operate. i.e. the problem with FTX was that they informally held themselves out to be a segregated accounts company but formally operated like a bank on a first-come-first-served basis.
What did you end up taking? Similar boat
Recently, I was required to use a PC that had Windows 11 on it. I tried to set it up like the rest of my computers, which involves moving the task bar from the bottom of the screen to the side, which I've done for years in Windows.

Yeah, W11 doesn't support that. If you do some digging you'll find MS claiming it's a large technical lift that they have no current plans to do.

What does this mean with regards to your question? Not much. But that regression in functionality, in an area that every other OS I use supports and has supported for years, definitely suggests the thing is a hack. In my humble uninformed opinion.
That kind of comports with how the UI in windows has behaved from 98>XP>7>8>10. In 10, you get the windows 10 UI on most of your top-level interfaces, but once you dive into a sub-menu you get some legacy UI and if you dig down deep enough you get UI from what feels like windows 98.
I think they are under more of a load a cruising speed than you'd expect. At speed both the car and plane are primarily overcoming wind resistance, which is more about speed and elevation than anything. If I'm understanding right the plane would be going more than highway speed within a few thousand feet of the ground for most of it's (flying) life so it's probably putting more stress on the engine than a car on the highway would.

More importantly: if your car engine dies you gradually slow down and pull over. If your plane engine dies calmly pulling over isn't an option. It's much easier to justify spending the money ensuring a plane's engine is reliable.
Strattera (atomoxetine) is a commonly used SNRI developed for adhd. I personally had a very bad reaction to it, but it allegedly helps some people.

Guanfacine is another, I haven't tried it, so I can't give any first hand experience. I think it's used more to help blood pressure & agitation that can come up with adhd

Welbutrin is also commonly used.
Palm Pilot was a huge success both from a sales perspective and from "getting consumers comfortable with touch screen" perspective. The author of the article has a very poor choice of metaphors and examples which really obscures his point.
The question is, in terms of energy input, are we talking about Q-total or Q-plasma? Based on the video by Sabine Hossenfelder, my guess would be, the announcement references Q-plasma. That would mean that the announcement is a motte-and-baily miscommunication, as it promises much more than people are lead to read into it.

Motte: We got more energy out than we put in.
Bailey: Oh, what we really meant is, more energy was produced, than was put into the plasma, though we didn't actually capture any energy and also, there was actually a great deal of energy also needed to run all the ancillary systems to keep the plasma confined.

The fact that research was published openly by Chinese students and favorably recognized by Huawei strongly supports that interpretation. That's more or less the polar opposite of what you'd do if you were trying to subvert mass surveillance systems rather than improve them.

This would only work if a successful claim resulted in the YouTuber having to pay, otherwise such an asymmetric situation would never be sustainable.

Given how many popular videos sit on the edge of copyright abuse it’s not really in Google’s interest to do this anyway.
Synthetic fuels need an energy price of about $1/MWh to be competitive. Intermittent solar will be that price in a few years, I doubt that nuclear will ever hit that price.
As a human being I know human limitations, explicitly labeling 400mln/5bln images for a particular task seems absurd to me, but if you think it is realistically possible perhaps you can give an example.
No, what I'm saying is that the article makes it sound like a boss will fire you for being oblivious about your diagnosis and your illness. Instead, I think that the job needs to be done, and if you aren't able to for whatever the reason is the boss is going to have to find a replacement for you.
I feel personally attacked by this comment. I've tried to used every single type of note taking software (even the second brain types) and I've failed because I always forget to use it.
I don't know what the solution is, but with every year it's becoming more and more apparent that the entire concept of copyright is incompatible with a global communications network.
That list of formatting sequences would have to be updated with new indexes when the content of the buffer changed. Keeping the two in sync wouldn't be trivial (for a computer or a human), a tree of nodes fixes that and works for 99.99% of use cases.
Soooo you are what in your daily life?

Logseq. It's free, open source, actively developed, has mobile apps, and most importantly your notes are text files stored on your computer.
It replaced the following apps for me:

- Note taking (Bear app)

- Task management (Things)

- Journaling (Day One)

- Bookmarking (Instapaper)

- Personal CRM (Contacts)
To be honest, looking at those numbers, that doesn't look 10-20 years away. We'd need Moore's law style improvement in efficiency and to productionize it. So we're really saying 20 years at best for the technology, and then let's look at quickly we can build Nuclear power plants today... uh oh. In the UK for example it has taken 12 years to even agree to build a new Nuclear plant on a site that already has Nuclear plants!.
One of the Titanic-era trans-atlantic luxury ships added so much marble to the first class deck and cabins that the ship was in danger of capsizing. Don't recall what happened to it.
> They would not accept his donations, he is politically the kiss of death.

I'm not going to address this part, which is the main point of your message. You might be right, I really don't know how political money moves, especially "dark money" and whatnot.

I'll address the other parts to clarify because I think there were a couple minor points of confusion.

> He's not going to be donating $100 million here or there to these politicians.

The $100 million here, $40 million there I spoke of was him dropping money in accounts / crypto wallets controlled by himself. I'm saying I think he still has a lot of money, and from what I understand money can buy influence. You might be right that his money cannot buy influence on Capital Hill anymore. But I do think he still has a lot of money.

> He likely does not even have the $8 billion.

No, I definitely don't think he has $8 billion. Clearly a lot of that was lost. But I do think there's good reason to believe he has access to money in the order of $100 million - $1 billion while he's trying to claim he only has $100k left.
Twitter really needs to move into the longer form video space to give YouTube some competition. YouTube has gotten very lazy with their near monopoly on long form video and now only innovates by increasing the number of ads every quarter to show revenue growth and desperately copying TikTok.
Yeah - I think the key here is 4x32GB specifically, not just 4 sticks. 128GB is much much harder on the memory controller, since those are dual-rank memory modules (or pseudo-4R due to how DDR5 is wired compared to DDR4), and we got 4 of them. So even 4,800 is far from guaranteed in this situation, on any platform atm, and it’s unclear at this point if and when the situation will improve, barring larger memory modules in 2x48Gb and 2x64GB configurations (which would be much easier to run) or the next gen of chips with stronger MCs.
If they replaced the lasers in this building from the 90's with a modern light source it would immediately do two orders of magnitude. Research like this needs to focus on solving, and experimenting with one problem (in this case the physics of inertial confinement fusion). They are not _trying_ to build something which gets "net power out of the building". So don't assume you're net in, net out ratios are representative of what a plant targeted doing that would be.

It's quite easy to see that replacing the lasers, the capacitors, etc. with more modern technology would have an immediate effect. But it doesn't matter until doing the reaction at all makes sense. That's what they are focusing on.
If a claimant makes a bad-faith claim or the claim is done by undersupervised automation? Sure. But I think some of these claims are false positives by YouTube's ContentID system. In those cases, does YouTube pay? I agree there needs to be a disincentive to over-claiming (including but not limited to holding ad revenue in escrow and returning it to the video's owner if the claims are false) but in practice, I don't know how it needs to work.
> but with many entities maintaining their own central repos

This sounds more "federated" than p2p though. I imagine each organisation has again a centralized hub for coordinating their own development on the kernel. So the collaboration between those different orgs (and eventually with Linus) is sort of a layer on top of the normal git workflow.

I think you can see "federation" patterns (i.e. where orgs/servers/hubs/etc are p2p but each user belongs to a particular hub) pretty often in decentralised systems - and my subjective impression is that they are a lot more successful than "true" p2p systems (where users themselves are p2p).

Other examples of that pattern would be IRC, Mastodon, email and in a limited sense the web itself (users are bound to a platform but platforms can interface with other platforms via APIs)

Crypto (and git) would be sort of hybrids: It's technically possible to use the system without a hub, but the vast majority of users goes through a hub - for crypto, those would be cloud wallets and the exchanges we're talking about...
After reading https://www.hillelwayne.com/post/are-we-really-engineers/ I am convinced that Software Engineering is the same as any other engineering field. Sure, it looks like like and death is at play in the other fields and all we do is debate what color fonts should be on a web page, but their projects seem a lot like that too. In every engineering field, projects usually go well enough to get another project, which is the best you can really hope for in the real world.

Our whole "I can't do work today, I have to apply these security fixes 83 levels deep" also sounds a lot like: https://practical.engineering/blog/2022/8/2/you-spend-more-o...

All in all, yeah, I don't understand the inferiority complex. Engineering always looks amazing to people that aren't in the thick of it, but we hide a lot of the flaws, and fix the other ones through iteration.
Well, he said it “is like” a fjord, not that it is one.

But truth to be told, in some parts of Norway, the word “fjord” can refer to a narrow fresh water lake, often with steep sides. Moreover, some Norwegian lakes have names ending in -fjord (or -fjorden, being the definite form). Randsfjorden and Tyrifjorden are two examples.
