I do the same. I like keeping emulated games separate.

I also add it as a non-Steam game to access it while in the Steam front-end and allowing for controller options. I'm guessing you might do the same too.
I'm assuming that this wasn't a debate but a matter of open minded thinking.

> I think that level of automation, ~100%, is unachievable for a business like this, but that's by the by

With a little flexibility in your definition, I think you could completely automate it.

1 - Have a cron job that collects trends (maybe a crawler, but perhaps you could get that info via APIs of some social media through your advertising account).

2 - generate the T shirt / whatever design using a generative package

3 - generate and place ads on various sites based on their current memes (mapping determined in step 1)

4 - take orders and send them to a print on demand shirt fulfillment service. This makes your company 100% automated, though some people are required at the fulfillment and delivery steps of course — but your payroll is nil.

This reminds me of the stories that appear from time to time in which some old person in Europe is discovered to have died in their apartment but are undiscovered for years because the pension is auto deposited, the utilities are autodebited, and what little mail arrives just comes in through the slot in the door and piles up on the floor.

This automated company could almost also survive its owner’s death, except for the tax filings.

It was a different time. Even a simple "office" style package for DOS came with multiple volumes of dead trees. Most of the stuff in there was the kind of stuff we don't document anymore these days because they're considered self-explanatory.

Of course the waterfall model and lack of online updates made this more feasible. When updates were shipped once a year or so they often came with paper addendums you could clip into the binders.

These days software changes too fast for such documentation to keep up, but I feel we've gone too far, it's often hard to find any clear word on what something does now.

Modern sources of entertainment are dressed up in a lot of fluff. Blow all that fluff away and you're left with nothing that is any better than games and stories that have been with us since forever.

There is some serious cognitive dissonance in the Minecraft community. There's a narrative that Microsoft is "destroying" the community that does not align with reality.

Most recently, the outrage was over the (entirely optional!) chat moderation features on private servers, and the mindless recitation that it would lead to widespread abuse and false-positive bans. It didn't.

I can only assume it's the result of non-technical people who know _just enough_ to think they know what they're talking about parroting misinformation in discords, Twitter, YouTube comments, etc. Perhaps it's a just a younger, more impressionable audience.

There is seemingly no reasoning with them either. They will vehemently defend wild points with zero evidence, and often with evidence to the contrary readily available.
Hearing is logarithmic, the response is non-linear, ergo you may hear X000Hz but not hear X001Hz, yet hear X002Hz. X003Hz may be easier to hear, yet X004Hz may be more difficult than some. It's not a smooth response.

Take a look at some hearing response graphs to get an idea of how variable it can be across the frequency spectrum.

I do not accept this at all.

This would not result in "US producing no commercial aircraft".
Boeing has a healthy and growing profit margin. They can afford to vertify a new plane properly.

You are asking me to risk my life to pad their margins.

I think this is overestimating the amount of "brand recognition" that Intel gets out of the "i". Ordinary consumers don't give a damn about it whatsoever, hell, I guarantee 99% of ordinary people don't even know which manufacturer produced the CPU on any given device that they own.

Meanwhile, enthusiasts will roll their eyes and use whatever dumb naming scheme Intel replaces it with. It was terribly convoluted before, and it will certainly be terribly convoluted after. This is a non-event.
> To know anything (an X) completely you need perfect knowledge.

Agreed.

> Hence people come up with a set of simplified ways of reasoning about X. They call this a model of X.

A "set of simplified ways of reasoning about X" in order to create a "model of X" does not imply complete understanding. Quite the contrary actually.

To wit, science often models current understanding of a phenomenon. When new evidence (understanding) is discovered, the model is updated to account for it. Sometimes this invalidates the original model, often the model is refined. Either way, progress is made with the tacit agreement that the model may change in the future.

> If a model checks out with the real outcomes we proudly exclaim that we understand X.

Again, this does not support the assertion of "That's been solved long ago." If anything, it affirms there is justification for disagreeing with the original premise to which I responded:

> We just can’t accept that we might solve ourselves.
Let's say for a second the King (or Crown, it makes no odds) owns your swans, but you'd rather he not own them. What'd be your recourse?

Presumably the King (or Crown, it makes no odds) once owned all the swans in Ireland too. Then one day didn't. Now those swans are free swans living in an actual, honest to God, Republic. Technically the ones in the North are still his but their ownership status is disputed. The swans that fly back and forth I'm not sure what to do about, post Brexit arrangements being shoddy at best.

All this talk of ownership seems to confuse power with right, right with tradition, tradition with law, law with power.

And power grows from the barrel of a gun.
> Because people who are good and social with the group do not have a contrarian character

That’s an interesting observation, and in my experience working in small businesses and large enterprise organizations, it’s entirely and totally wrong. Some of the worst people I’ve ever known in the workplace kiss up to the boss and to people in power while running the company into the ground. These are not good people. It’s actually a kind of evil in a way, as they present a likable "go along to get along" persona and facade while doing a terrible job. I would much rather be surrounded by humble yet candid truth tellers, who tell it like it is with empathy and compassion and care.
I've never been interested in chess because it seemed to be way too much work to be good enough to have fun.

Things have gotten much easier now, you can get endless stream of free puzzles that are as fun as any puzzle game and adapt to your skill level... I'm still not that interested in actually playing but it's really the ultimate single player game for phones, always slightly challenging and takes as little or as much time as you want.
> The “i” branding is extremely powerful with the average consumer and removing it is bound to cause confusion amongst consumers who aren’t technically-inclined.

There's no way this is true. The iNumbers were never used consistently enough to mean anything.

If the author sees this, there's a comment on your HTTP Verb parsing post that says:

"The major drawback of gperf is that it generates function "exists", while we need a "lookup"."

gperf allows for returning actual values. I use it in a whole lot of ways (enough that I've written code that imports data to then generate enums, execute gperf and import generated code, etc), including for generating lookups for HTTP Verbs.

Let me know if you want to know how that's done and I can give more details.

I do think the i3/i5/i7/i9 monikers are actually pretty confusing, just speaking as someone who has been using computers much longer than the brand existed. Problem is that a CPU from 2009 is going to be called an “i5” and there are just so many people who say they have an “i5” or “i7” without knowing what generation it is from.
You caught me skimming the article!

The National Archives gives one pound in 1480 as the 33 days' wages for a skilled tradesman's labour, so I can see why they'd want to join a guild.
“The “i” branding is extremely powerful with the average consumer and removing it is bound to cause confusion amongst consumers who aren’t technically-inclined.”

Who’s the “average” consumer here? I’m skeptical that the majority of PC buyers have internalized the “i” branding. Gamers, sure. But average consumers? I’ve talked a number of less computer savvy friends and family through computer purchases and there was awareness of Intel, but beyond that not so much.

I don’t think a rebrand is going to change much for Intel either way. Average consumers are either going to buy by price point and familiar brand (Lenovo, Dell, etc.) or phone a friend to get advice. Or use whatever they get handed by their employer.
Islamophobia is "pretty cringe" too.
This movie is incredible. To many people, its lack of characters and a traditional storyline makes it alienating and boring, but there’s such a deep beauty embedded within that. There might not be a story, but there is a narrative that is clearly commenting about our relationship to nature, and in lacking those traditional elements of mainstream cinema it exposes us to a new way of thinking. We see life on earth taken at face value; the scenes are familiar to us but without any characters or words to ground and bias us. I’ve always felt that its as close as we can get to observing earth for the first time from a distant place. It forces us to detach from all the basic axioms that fuel our day to day experience, and in doing so makes an extremely salient point about our societies relationship with nature. Paired with the words « life out of balance », its hard to complete a viewing without a sense of dread that we’re doing a wildly bad job of taking care of our planet.
When an insurance company totals your car you can generally buy your car back from them and get a salvage title. This would seem like a decent opportunity given that an ignition switch is just a basic 3 or 4 position switch (especially on these cars!). So either replace it with some half-fitting generic switch(es) or just hotwire your car every time.
That leaves us with Intel 3, Intel 5 and Intel 7, which is quite strong IMO because it drops the i sub-brand?

The King is the state. There are restrictions on what he can do with Crown property, as you mention he is not allowed to dispose of it. These restrictions ultimately lead to the creation of a separate legal personhood for the King as an individual.

In other words, Crown property has always been the King’s, however, exceptionally he is allowed a second personhood so that he can buy, sell and (importantly) bequeath property like a normal person can.

I happily resell you Intel processors at a 10x markup but you get a ten year warranty that I'll replace your processor with a new one of no worse specs, if similar vulnerabilities get discovered.

Details to be negotiated.

(More seriously: you don't need a new manufacturer. Someone else can do the warranty at a price.

That's actually what eg Apple Care: if a part inside your device catches on fire, Apple will replace it, even though they did not necessarily manufacture that part.

I have no clue whether their particular policy covers the vulnerabilities we are talking about. But you can easily imagine a variant of such an insurance policy that does.)

Getting a FS going on the web has been such a brutal slog for me. There's some pretty decent existing projects lole lightning-fs but it feels like the web APIs have been changing & changing & I keep wanting newer.

Very cool to see this nicely tackled. Still poking around but seems integrative with wasi, which hopefully grows closer & closer with good fast web APIs. There's been a ton of criticism I think justly so that neither the wasi nor the web fs teams have spent much time trying to figure out how to work together, & so there's real peril possible too, but I think wasi is a much better much less hacked out model & is probably the "right" real target. Having build in object capability sandbox security puts it lightyears beyond what the web spec folk have been up to, and the rest of their fs model is also much much better built out.

Alas it just means that running on the web the target so going to be primarily in-memory for a long time because the web spec folk seem so uninterested in doing a good actual filesystems impl. Origin Private File System seems to be the one place there's interest in being fast at all, and they seem overwhelmingly concerned about making sqlite in emscripted fast & not a ton else. What we would do for real wasi on the web!

Already a very solid start building out coreutils. There's a bunch of similar ish efforts out there already, building JS impls of core utils. For example, posix-tools, https://github.com/shama/posix-tools

Yes, and beware of the people who want you to ignore the second two categories. "If you aren't the customer, you're the product" is an insidious way to make you think there's no escape from being monetized, while simultaneously lying to you by saying you won't be a product if you pay using money. It's pretty universal that paying customers are a product sold to bigger customers, and I'm very wary of the motives of anyone who wants me to forget that.
What is the power loss to heat? I am thinking about using Rad Cycle batteries as a power source for my van (instead of a Jackery, Goalzero, etc) The batteries are 48V, 600Wh and I mostly just want to be able to convert to 5V up to 2.4amps. Is this possible and is this a dumb idea? Any pointers welcome.

Are emergent abilities of large language models a mirage?
The fact that Mussolini was always on paper subservient to the King meant that, once it became obvious that the Axis powers were losing the war, it was possible for the King to remove him. It also enabled the existence of a royalist power base in the military and bureaucracy, beyond fascist control, which played an essential role in Mussolini's downfall.

After President von Hindenburg's death, there was no one left in Germany for Hitler to answer to, not even in theory. That meant there was no legal mechanism to remove him, he could only be removed by violence – and the plot to assassinate him failed. The world could easily have been a better place if Germany had remained a monarchy – even if Hitler still became Chancellor and started World War II and all the rest of his horrid crimes, it would have been far easier to remove and replace him with a new German leader. Germany's generals knew they had lost, and many of them wanted to focus on making sure they surrendered to the Western allies not the Soviets - but Hitler forced them to keep on fighting unwinnable battles instead. With Hitler imprisoned (or maybe even summarily executed to eliminate the risk that devout Nazis would try to free him), the generals could have done as they wanted. Possibly the division of Germany could have been avoided, and large swathes of Eastern Europe could have escaped communism. It also could have resulted in much better treatment of German civilians and POWs, for while the Western allies weren't perfect in that regard, they were significantly more humane than the Soviets were.
Celebritarian obsession was accelerated by Photoshop fakery. Why would AI be any different? Auto-Tune didn't kill interest in pop.

Hatsune Miku is a Vocaloid. Gorillaz isn't an actual band. These aren't new ideas. They seem to have been roaring successes. vTubers seem to do alright too. Deepfake porn and VR porn seem to do well too. Plastic surgery is popular too. Wigs, makeup, veneers, all very mainstream with consumers. If anything, there seems to be a good demand for escapism.

Why do people quote movies? Why do people obsess over lore? Because it resonates with them. It doesn't need to be real to appeal on some level.

When so much of life is "fake", what difference does it make?

However, is it all OK for mental health? Well, we know the answer to that.
When they were first released they were.

i3: single core, hyperthreading

i5: multi core, no hyperthreading

i7: multi core, hyperthreading

It only jumped the shark once hyperthreading stopped being a differentiating feature, and Intel tried to retcon equivalent performance levels into their previous numbering system.

Edit: Nehalem (~2008). Apparently i3 didn't exist until the Westmere die shrink?
For at least two reasons:

1) It doesn't help them to borrow money at 4-5% if their loan book is earning less than (or even slightly more, because operating costs). Locking in losses won't save them.

2) The FDIC decided that things had further deteriorated at First Republic (ie, more deposits pulled than they expected) and downgraded their CAMEL rating. The Fed won't lend money once a rating drops to some level (I'm not sure exactly where they draw the line)

Their assets are worth less than their liabilities. They are toast.
I’ve been out of the enthusiast game since the P4.

I understand that an i5 is better than an i3 and worse than an i7.

Outside of that I’m totally lost. Different core counts, different kinds of cores, multiple clock speeds (minimum, normal, max, ultra-boost), etc. and of course a current i3 probably destroys an older i7 in benchmarks.

GPUs aren’t quite as bad. A 3060 is better than a 2060, but is a 3060 better than a 2080ti?

But I find CPUs (when I see model numbers mentioned) totally inscrutable.

I don’t know if the i-series names are valuable. The last Intel name I really remember is the Core 2 Duo name. i3 is no where near as memorable.

Whatever they do, I hope they find a way to make their various lines and models easier to understand. I know that’s difficult for a company like Intel with such a huge line up of products.
Given that the supreme court ruling in Dobbs relied on right wing justices declaring that the 14th amendment should only apply in ways that the authors could have predicted in the mid-19th century, it seems quite reasonable to be skeptical of the 14th amendment's ability to adequately prevent gender discrimination; it was, after all, passed at a time when women lacked very basic rights and it's unlikely that the authors would have intended or predicted it affording equal rights to women. In particular the argument that the 14th amendment guarantees only those rights that are "deeply rooted in this nation's history and tradition" and "implicit in the concept of ordered liberty" opens an enormous potential for future rulings that undermine gender (and other forms of) equality.

Doesn't seem very mind boggling to me.
I suspect it's more that we can build institutions and those institutions can be imbued with rules we think are ideal and power to enforce said rules. That we can apply concepts like "what rules would I want to apply if I didn't know my starting position?" to decide on desirable rules helps a lot too.
Depends on your definition of "excessive".
This is especially true after the last few years of CPU innovation. A 2023 Core i3-13100 beats a 2018 Core i7-8700K, at least in Passmark, in single and multi.
