Yes and no. The 6502 die size was tiny compared to most 16 bit and all 32 bit cpus. It was ALWAYS going to be cheaper. For quite some time (maybe even still) WDC had a great business selling 6502 family cores matched with semi-custom IO on the same die as device controllers.

But the IIgs was a crazy machine. My mom brought one home for a couple months when the school district she worked at adopted them. It was surprisingly usable, though the screen resolution was a bit low.
Sorry, yes. It's technically feasible.

However, practically, it's not. Within the modern minivan sector, it'd be a non-starter to have a transmission tunnel when all of your competitors don't have that.
You've decided "Open society" == good. This is a value judgement not a law of nature.

What if military is also divided ?

Is that happening? The few social circles I have of active duty military are only divided on the woke topics but I am not aware of that turning into mobs or riots or even affecting their ability to do their jobs. If this is occurring I am not seeing it.
Privilege is every second not hunting and gathering for our food. Fun stuff like GPT or bitcoin is what keeps life interesting.
I had no idea it was Kenyans. I assumed it was low ranking professors, adjuncts, grads, etc. doing part time work or gig.
This is a simply evil way to talk about groups of people, even if this is tongue in cheek. The only thing different between Kenyans and Americans is the yearly income which isn't because "Kenyans are super cheap", it's because they are are undervalued and in the Imperial Periphery https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periphery_countries

The actual paper discussed in that article isn't just comparing frequencies of accidents, but rather using them to calculate the odds that a given vehicle type causes a pedestrian accident in a variety of scenarios. In doing so the author determined that these vehicles were overinvolved in accidents relative to their frequency on the road.
I wonder why on earth this wasn't done properly by reserving, say, as.arpa. or at least using your AS number beneath a (properly registered) asn.net?
Also, I want to add an observation, as an immigrant in the US, and this applies especially to liberals: whenever they see something they like in Europe, it trumps every other argument. Because it is happening in Europe, *it is* better and debating it further paints you as an uneducated bigot.
If it's something that liberals don't agree with, then "yeah, but this is the US", "we can and should do better" etc.

e.g. When talking about laws or policies that positively discriminate based on skin color, someone said "this wouldn't even be a discussion in Europe, it would just be accepted". I had to point out that it would actually be illegal/unconstitutional in all places I know about in Europe.

Another one: All of Europe, except the UK, has voter ID requirements, some stricter than others.

I will add manual vote counting to my list.

Yes, there are both fitness and fatness hurdles, or at least there were a few decades ago. If you were reasonably fit but quite fat, you would go through Army Basic Training but be on a restricted diet. People would lose 30-40 pounds in six weeks, so it was effective. If you were sufficiently unfit that you could not exercise, that was when they sent you to remedial training before you could join Basic Training.
I’m pretty worried about India. Pretty much all of our recent prosperity can be attributed to the tech sector. The bulk of this tech sector is outsourcing work, not high level architecture or design work.

I can imagine this entire sector being hollowed out completely within a few years, destroying the entire middle class.
> It's more like once it's established it's hard to change - if you started listing 'miles per litre' that would be like it was 'designed to hide the cost of driving', because I would have no idea how that compared.

1. I think with liters, people typically reverse the relationship so it's liters/100km. Which is a much more intuitive unit.

2. If you're buying gas in liters, I think it'd be a lot easier to switch over to using liters for efficiency. You may not be able to compare easily to other vehicles, but you'd be able to estimate your personal fuel more easily.
Ok fine, "Rust doesn't have a garbage collector and has reference value semantics and ownership semantics."

My point is that the syntax isn't a problem, it's that Rust has very different semantics from the GC'd languages in the original comment and it all has to do with memory management.
While I agree with the consent issue, I think consent to use cookies isn't the problem. I already set my browser to not store cookies by default, and make exceptions for a few websites I need to log into.

For me, consent is enforced at the browser level, not the website level. So I don't really care whether I hit "accept" or "decline". Their cookies aren't going to be stored either way. In fact it's even more ridiculous and annoying that they need to store a goddamn cookie or fingerprint me to remember that I declined, which of course doesn't get stored on my end, and results in the stupid dialog box appearing every time I visit the site.

You know where I really hate tech companies and consent? Asking for phone numbers for SMS confirmations. No thanks. You don't need my phone number to do business with me. Just the other day a goddamn restaurant needed a phone number to order food in person at the restaurant via their abomination of a QR code at the table and a mobile webpage ordering system.

> The problem is that currently people are buying an F-150 when it's not fine for them.

In your opinion.

> Also, apparently, US fuel efficiency rules seem to encourage larger cars, which are less fuel efficient.

I'm not sure where you get that idea from. We're generally less sensitive to fuel economy because gasoline in the US is cheap - because it's not taxed to the hilt (I'd be happy to pay higher taxes for universal healthcare, but that's another hot topic).

> This discrepancy is causing problems with lots of people driving trucks far bigger than what they need.

Again, "need" is subjective.

You're in the EU and you have your own mindset that's very different from the vast majority of American's mindset (I would know, my parents are EU immigrants.) Nothing wrong with difference of opinions...but you're not going to change people's minds here with these arguments.

That's usually the first question that pops up when explaining it to non-Muslims haha but yes, really, no water either.
Right, now try to explain to her how it works.
I'd argue it's the opposite. We're coming off a decade of free money driving a second tech boom.

If interest rates stay elevated, and value investing becomes valuable again, it will be interesting to see how the tech space transforms. When start-ups have to compete with money market funds or even treasuries for investor cash, things become orders of magnitude tighter and more challenging.

There were lots of good examples during COVID. Remember that you don't need to wear masks, because washing your hands is enough (and we need to save the masks for doctors, but we're afraid to say that, because it will cause a run on masks). Remember that staying 6 feet apart is a magic distance over which COVID cannot cross (or maybe 1 meter, truth depends on the country you live in). Remember that you can't eat inside a restaurant, but you can eat outside, and it's okay for the restaurant to build partial walls around their outdoor spaces to make them more comfortable. Remember that COVID definitely could not have come from a lab leak, and it's racist to even suggest it might have happened. Never mind that the scientist who started the anti-lab-leak open letter was himself heavily funded for GoF research, and he refused to sign his own letter for political reasons.

I don't claim to know the answers to all of the questions (and I certainly don't know where COVID came from), but clearly there are plenty of cases where dubious statements were strongly enshrined as "True" in a way that required major online players to suppress alternative beliefs as "False".
I'd like to hide the submissions about hiding GPT submissions

This is standard proxy war stuff, and isn't even close to what's been going on in the middle east. Like, not too long ago Wagner forces actually had a direct shoot out with the US military in Syria. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.independent.co.uk/news/worl...

The episode where the Russian jet sprayed fuel on the US drone? Standard cold war tactic that was very common in the 80s. Russians have been ramming and harassing US vehicles for decades. Here's a video of Russians harassing a US convoy of sorts in Syria a few years ago: https://youtube.com/shorts/hSGv02qQfhQ?feature=share

Both sides have been flagrantly arming and training opposing factions in these proxy wars for decades as well. Modern Ukraine looks a lot like a reversed Vietnam, actually, and the US never declared war on Russia for that either.

Neither side wants direct confrontation with the other, so they play games like this. Ukraine is a bit tame compared to the other recent/ongoing proxy wars. The flashpoint is that it's happening in Europe, which makes every move very public and sensationalised, and adds more pressure to the situation in general.

So most of this talk of "violations" and escalation is in some sense naive, because the actual red lines have been carved in the sand outside of the public eye over the past half century. What we understand as a clear escalation is often just par for the course in the minds of the people involved in these conflicts.
This post is a list of things to avoid doing, but it could benefit from an example of acceptable examples. It's funny how the language around this kind of thing has grown more convoluted since 'whitelist' and 'blacklist' have been removed from the language, so instead we have 'dark pattern' which, on similar grounds, could inspire another call for language censorship.

Fundamentally, it's just easier to check patterns against an allowed list than against a banned list, because if the pattern is in the acceptable set, you're done, but just because it's not found in the unacceptable set, doesn't mean it's not deceptive.
Nefarious use, from scams, weaponized tech, propaganda and just the magnitude of noise generated by meaningless content, we are about to have a burden of undesirable effects to deal with in regards to both powerful and easily available technology to all.

Some suggest we can use AI to counter these itself, although I haven't seen much clarity on such proposals and even if possible there is always substantial lag between nefarious use and containment.

There is so much focus on the problems of future AGI, but little on AI that we have now, working as designed, but yet still very problematic from the impacts on societal order.

I've elaborated much on the societal and social implications in the following reference. I expect AI will lead all concerns in the area of unexpected consequences in due time.

Always loved the CRAY aesthetic. Saw one in a museum a while back, couldn't get away from it.
Where I went undergrad they required either passing a swim test or taking a phys ed swim class to graduate. Presumably there were medical exemptions. (And I actually was exempted because I had a Scuba cert which itself required a swim test.) I don’t know how inflexible they were come graduation if push came to shove.

Maybe somewhat counter-intuitively, swimming is a more relevant skill for the Army than for the Navy. Offshore, being able to swim doesn't help much: you're not going to end up in the water unless you're in some sort of accident, which means that either you're wearing a lifevest, or you're almost certainly going to drown (because you're unconscious or are not found in time). Whereas in the Army you might need to actively cross bodies of water, and therefore you need to be able to actually swim.

I'm only familiar with USMC boot, and only through friends who served.

They ALL lost massive amounts of body fat. Most looked almost emaciated afterwards. They couldn't really add more PT - that's a huge portion of what they do for the 3 month period.

The initial fitness test (for males) is...
3 Pull-Ups 44 crunches 34 Push-Ups 1.5 mile run in 13:30

Any reasonably fit 18 year old should be able to pass that. Somebody at 26% BF isn't going to complete any of those exercises and be unable to start boot camp.

But, the Air Force minimum fitness level required to GRADUATE from boot camp is only slightly harder than the USMC requirement to START boot camp. Is somebody who started at 26% BF going to gain enough fitness in a few months to meet those levels? I doubt it.
I am a Kenyan and I know a couple of people engaged in "academic writing". They do it because they don't have any other better paying job opportunities. Most of the people I know doing this work are college educated but cannot find gainful employment. It is actually pretty interesting since they are a few Kenyans who own the platforms and have connections with college students in the US. They then sub-contract the actual work of writing the essays to other Kenyans and take a commission. Owning one of these platforms is lucrative since it scales pretty easily.

The reality is that in most developing countries, the more you can “hide” your work from the government, the better. People are drawn to online work because the government doesn’t really understand it nor does it have a clear framework for regulating it. This means you can keep working without some government official asking for bribes and bureaucratic paperwork.

I actually have a bit of experience doing this sort of thing, except in reverse - when I (white-presenting Canadian) was in Uni getting an English degree, I made small amounts of money rewriting papers for a guy from Sri Lanka. I cannot comment on the quality of his thought, but his writing was as bad as one would expect from a second language person who was studying a non-literature discipline; it was hard work and he had to be there the whole time to answer questions about what he meant by a sentence.

I don't consider that work to be illegitimate; he gave me fully-written essays that I did not change the content of, only the grammar, so that his actual thought could reach his prof in a clear way. A discussion of privilege would mention that he was a rich kid whose father was, by his telling, a fairly important man in Sri Lanka.

As such, I think anyone being salty towards this industry of people with essay skills writing essays for money is... wrongheaded, at best. Yes, the clickbaity title of the article emphasizes the way it is being abused by privileged people in the US, but as far as I'm concerned, it is just as possible that they are rewriting essays for people who are doing the work but struggle to compose the words.

We all know that's not true in every case, and probably not true in most cases, but bottom line, This Is A Legitimate Industry, and writing off the bad effects of AI on said industry by assassinating the character of those who participate in it for survival is reprehensible.

The original Cray 1 had already had a very powerful vector execution unit and low memory latency relative to the CPU frequency (by todays standards). The RP2040 has even lower memory latency, but only ¼ MiB RAM and no hardware floating point support or SIMD (neither packed-SIMD nor "true" Cray style vectors). At least the BootROM includes hand optimised Soft-FP code and the single-cycle I/O block even includes a memory mapped hardware integer divider and two interpolators per CPU core. These can help a lot with fixed point DSP workloads, but are totally different from what made the Cray 1 special at its time. Todays better MCUs may match certain performance numbers of early supercomputers, but their designs have more differences than similarities. There have been attempts to recreate early Crays in FPGAs, but so little software for them has been preserved (in a way accessible to the public) that it's difficult to judge how good the recreations are and even the later Cray 1 based designs need a really big FPGA to reimplement all relevant pieces at least as fast as the original. Cray didn't just build fast floating point adders and multipliers, but the main memories and interconnects between them to make them useful. Good luck finding a way to attach 100s of interleaved DRAM banks to your FPGA, because your internal block RAM won't be enough as main memory and memory access timings have improved the least over time.
