>Any degree would do.

That's completely foreign to me.

It was well understood that degrees in English, psychology, and the wider arts were useful for teaching, but they weren't going to pay well, unless you were the exceptional minority that had a clear idea of what you were planning on doing.

I really think millennials should have got more real world work experience and internships before committing to overpriced degrees in industries that they didn't really want to work in. With a broader view of the world, one can make better decisions for happiness.
Some would argue that being regulated gives credibility and the better thing is no regulation beyond Buyer Beware.
A cpu can improve performance if the game is CPU bound, but why would running a game at 4k make any difference in cpu usage?

Ask HN: Anyone DIYed a solar powered ebike?
I guess you could file this under the "van down by the river" chuck everything and go down to basics plans, like vanlife but a bit more extreme.

Ok so here's my basic plan:

- basic ebike (50-100 mile LFP battery, dime a dozen on the market)

- tow a trailer (adapt a kiddo trailer or whatever), basically a long box/cooler with a lid, but the lid is solar panels. Or has solar panels glued/mounted, I found these that can't possibly be legitimate they seem so light:

https://www.amazon.com/Solar-Panel-Flexible-Monocrystalline-Photovoltaic/dp/B0BNVLXKN1/ref=psdc_2236628011_t1_B0BC96BWGT?th=1

- so two of those would be 3.3 feet long, 21 inches wide (maybe room for three of them widthwise, 32 inches isn't even three feet), and really small. Basically, tow a long cooler with those glued on.

- even if 2-3 x 200 watt rated panels only return 50% in practice... that 200-300 watts, that would probably triple or quadruple the all-electric range of the bike maybe even perpetual, and the rider can toss in more wattage as desired. Even a lazy crank from a reasonably healthy human is almost 100 watts.

- heck you could add more batteries or extra batteries to the rear trailer, lots of room to haul camper equipment and rain gear

- the panels are DC, the batteries are also DC usually with an AC adapter, why invert to AC from the panels so the charger can re-invert for the battery, are there DC "adapters" for things like this?

- you could always tow two trailers for even more...

- obviously you don't want the panels to be 100 pounds, but those linked panels seem to just be 2 pounds each, and there are DC-DC vanlife inverters that weight 4 pounds. What else would you need besides a cable to the ebike battery charge port?

I don't know where you live but in my poor as hell area (12 an hour is considered decent pay), $100K doesn't really get you that much anymore. That is like the bare minimum for a lot in the trees and a small and poorly insulated 2 bedroom house.

15 years ago it might not have been so bad. But now you would get a run down shack on a tiny plot of land and you are living in a poor as hell area deep in the sticks where the nearest store besides walmart or dollar tree is minimum 60 miles away and your only choice for internet is 4G wireless that is shoddy going through all the trees.

I wonder if we’d have any luck engineering a brain that can visualize higher dimensions the way we visualize 3d.

It would be cool to have a brain that sees time, just as an incidental consequence of what’s happening in higher dimensions.
This era is surprisingly troubled. With the advance of tech, the change in workload (more bs jobs), the distribution of knowledge, the potential coming of robots .. it will alter society's tissue.
To further your point, most UIs now don’t even go to the trouble of showing progress. It’s either an infinitely spinning glyph or a “progress” bar that just keeps scanning from left to right effectively providing zero information. Fun times.

It’s ridiculous how flippant and deceptive companies are about signing non-competes. Sometimes they neglect to mention it until you actually show up for work. So there you are, depending on this new job, standing in front of your new boss, compelled to create and maintain a positive relationship, presented with a legal contract that significantly damaged your leverage and alternate prospects.

That might even be criminal.

Often, I hear from some about how non-competes in some states are “non-enforceable”. But even when that’s true it doesn’t inoculate you from serious problems.

A friend signed a non-compete regarding professional services when he want to work (as an independent contractor, mind you) and was sued by the company after he left. He lawyered up and won, but the case took 18 months due to stalling and delays by the company. During that 18 months the judge had granted an injunction preventing him from providing similar services, leaving him effectively unemployed. It did great damage to his savings and the strength of his resume, which now had a significant gap.

As I said, he won! But he was awarded no damages, despite the victory. Seeing this play out convinced me that even you’re in the right, the process can be plenty of punishment on its own.

I first heard about Crowley when I was a serious Led Zeppelin fan (Jimmy Page looked to him for inspiration, according to Hammer of the Gods). Knew the Ozzy song, too. So I was aware of Crowley’s occult writings but had no idea about the mountaineering when he was young.

My assumption was the IO die had a directory of cache lines and would route a request to the other CCD if it were present there. You can't evict to a remote L3 but you can snoop it, I think.
Ahh sdf. I think I still log in occasionally even. Never did anything useful.
if service B needs some new data from the view that isn't being provided, then you first run the migration on service A to update that view and add a column. Then you are able to update service B to utilize that column.

If you don't need the new column, then you don't need to do anything on service B, because you know that existing columns on the view won't get removed and their type won't change. You only need to make changes on service B when you want to take advantage of those additions to the view.

I posited that you might have somehow been acting in good faith by opening with an insult and then following up with insults at every turn, but you soundly disproved that.

Again, you're missing the subtle bit in addition to having nothing other than insults to offer.
This is generally untrue, depending on what you mean by "faster".

The way most web apps use DBs, sqlite is incredibly fast. Because most web apps make multiple queries, often sequentially, and they're very sensitive to DB latency. The network overhead adds up: https://twitter.com/benbjohnson/status/1514969870529560580
You're hard and exhausting to listen to, too.

People with all kinds of accents, and with and without native English, have a hell of a hard time listening to what you're saying, because of your intent and the actual meaning of your words, not just how you pronounce them, which makes our ears bleed.

You sound like you have open sores and deep psychic wounds, so stop picking on them and people who speak differently than you do.

Bandwidth is a finite resource. An installation that is open for everyone to use still harms other people who would like to use that bandwidth for other purposes.
So I did my whole career at startups mostly, and then joined Meta last year, and left already.

I found Meta wildly more work than startups (just one datapoint). I feel in the industry at large when we say 40 hour weeks we mean "35-40 hours in front of the computer per week, average, with 90 minutes minimum of distraction per day." My experience at meta was like straight 40-hours and I was still always feeling like I was behind.

Also at non-faang the idea that you'd hide broken things from coworkers so you could do all the work yourself would make people laugh out loud.

Then the whole Performance cycle and "4 axes" of performance is really a non-issue at startups. At a startup you just excel for a few months, and then basically the whole company knows you're awesome and you're rarely met with skepticism from then on (which is good). I feel like getting a good review at non-meta is a non-issue mostly for someone in your situation.

The hard work didn't drive me nuts, but the fact that I felt like people weren't building the right things did. The idea of working that hard toward a hacky system made my soul bleed.
This is spot on. We're at a point where the basics of virtually any field can be learned quickly online, but I think becoming an actual expert takes just as long as it always has.
I think the main scenario where it starts mattering is with a 4090 :-) I.e. when the GPU is so powerful that the CPU becomes the bottleneck again. Not in every game of course, but there're some.

Crowley was a fine writer, too. I recommend his autobiography (or "autohagiography", as he called it), with the caveat that he's pretty much the Platonic ideal of the "unreliable narrator".

I tend to be skeptical of new tech, but I started grinning watching the video. I am far more entertained by and interested in these than I expected to be.

Maybe that's because I used to commute by train, and these seem perfect for shortening the walk on either end / helping you avoid becoming a sweat-mess during the walk.

I'm really curious how hard it is to replace or swap the batteries. The website says they use 18650 cells, so if you can access the batteries with a screwdriver, I could easily imagine doubling or tripling your range with a backpack and some spares charged overnight.
There is another aspect too. It completely breaks your body. Electricians get carpal tunnel worse than information workers by constantly squeezing lineman pliers, knees get shot. Your career path is work like that and hopefully before you get older, start your own company and hire younger people to do the body breaking work. But not everyone in the field will end up doing that so many end up in bad shape

That is my main reason to upgrade, even from 5950x (which is still selling very well). "Future-proof" for 4-5 years, with easy upgrades. Only problem is, Intel is also now claiming LGA 1700 will be here for a couple more years. But nothing compared to what AMD offers.
My main use case is upgrading codebases that depend on ffmpeg. I work for a shop that does a lot of media encoding and analysis across several independent systems, and we can’t upgrade all of them at once when a new ffmpeg is released, which means that for a while we’re actively supporting versions N and N+1. With this plugin, each codebase can declare which version of ffmpeg it wants in .tool-versions, and I don’t have to remember to do the uninstall/reinstall dance.

Most people won’t need this, but a few might find it very helpful.
You just gave away the difference right there. x.foo doesn’t “return a bound method object.” It just accesses an attribute and returns the value of that attribute. The attribute can be any Python value. If it’s a callable then it can be called with parens. There is no proxying whatsoever.

In contrast x.method(:foo) does do that proxy construction that you describe… because Ruby does not have first-class functions.
The innovation is spectacular, BUT, there needs to be a signal/low pitch sound that denotes this is generated audio in every single generated sample (likely legally enforced), or your grandma and kids will soon be getting legitimate sounding voice calls from you after someone calls/visits/interviews you first to record and train a model on your voice (as a simplest potential abuse vector, celebrities and anyone with public voice samples would be even easier).
"There's a full generation of talented women software engineers who do not have computer science degrees."

Yes?

"I just happen to be one of them, and I worked my way into the top 1% of software engineers (by salary) in Silicon Valley. I've spent a lot of time wondering: how did this happen? How many more people out there just like me, and how do I invest in them NOW?"

My wife is an IT consultant (frontend), the most recent customer actively asked for women developers so both of the women in the company got the job directly without any interviews (they had other gigs at the time).
The IT consultant company is making bank, she is not (happened to me too so I switched industry).
So maybe start an IT consultant company? Seems to be quite the market for it.
> A comment here on benchmarking the M1 managed to get 360GB/sec observed out of a 400GB/sec memory system, so I'd consider that pretty good and certainly a better percentage of peak than I see out of the x86-64 systems I benchmarked.

"the M1 Max isn’t able to fully saturate the SoC bandwidth from just the CPU side; From a single core perspective [..] it’s able to stress the memory fabric to up to 102GB/s. [..] Adding a third thread there’s a bit of an imbalance across the clusters, DRAM bandwidth goes to 204GB/s, but a fourth thread lands us at 224GB/s and this appears to be the limit on the SoC fabric that the CPUs are able to achieve"

https://www.anandtech.com/show/17024/apple-m1-max-performanc...

So peak CPU bandwidth on the M1 Max is 224GB/s. Which is really good for a CPU to be sure, but we're still talking bandwidth numbers far below what you'd need to eliminate the GPU.

> Well the 4, 6, and 8 channel memory architectures have been dramatically slower than the Apple 800GB/sec with dramatically less memory transactions in flight (1 per channel)

Huh? I guarantee you Xeons and Epycs are not limited to 1 transaction in flight, nor is Graviton2.

The AMD APUs in things like the steam deck, PS4, and PS5 (448GB/s fwiw) are also definitely not limited like that, either.

> than Apple's 800GB/sec with 64 channels

M1 ultra is 32 channels. Well, it's really 2x 16 channels since it's a NUMA configuration, like a dual-socket system.

> The push for Apple like memory systems with HBM from Intel, AMD, Fujitsu

lol? Apple's memory system isn't like HBM. It's more like a traditional GPU's but with GDDR swapped out for LPDDR. M1 Max is 512-bit memory bus, just like many GPUs have done over the years. 512-bit bus and it can only hit 400GB/s shows you just how much less bandwidth LPDDR has vs. GDDR, too. AMD & NVidia are hitting 1TB/s with 384-bit buses these days. Which is also what the HBM2e Xeon's are claiming.
The traditional way to handle this in the offline world is with ratings agencies like Nielsen. This is the thing where they try to figure out how many people are watching each TV channel or who read a given paper.

The problem is, this requires the readings agency to build up a representative panel of people, and track their behavior. This is pretty coarse, but it works in a relatively centralized world like traditional TV where there are only a few dozen channels. On the web, however, people visit so many different sites that the panel would either have to be extremely large or you would only be able to generate reasonable ratings for the largest sites, probably both. This would be yet another force pushing hard toward internet consolidation.

Another option is that you could somehow build a new technology into browsers with some sort of privacy preserving API. I used to work in this area [1] but I am pessimistic about it: it's very hard (and may not be possible) to build something that gets all three of (a) minimal load on the users browser (b) actually useful fraud detection and (c) sufficiently private (with a separate question of whether usage would require consent under GDPR).

I have replied to the other poster in this thread.

I understand that there may be some scientific value to these antennas and potentially a public benefit. That makes it even more ridiculous to me that those responsible chose not follow the rules around installing things like this on public lands since it is likely dead simple to gain support for something that will provide a clear public benefit, maybe even enough support that it effectively is paid for by the use of public monies. Clearly these people intended no public benefit or they would've lobbied locally for support.
We don't have to follow locale, we could just force ISO 8601 and there won't be any ambiguity.
