Your external GPU may support USB4. Will depend on the enclosure.
composer is remarkable in that it causes very few problems in practice.

It’s an excellent package manager in a mainstream language that just does its job.

It helps that the PHP community mostly just saw PSR4 and went, yeah, that’ll do.

Meanwhile over in JS land issues are still caused because different modules use different module formats and it’s all just…fragile somehow.

Ironic give the reputation of PHP that it nailed its package manager.
"It was easy..." - that doesn't sound that easy to me. I've honestly never had to do something like that to get linux working. Or maybe I'm too lazy and tried to work around things like that.
Another random thought: Most of these general purpose pruning approaches rely on randomly calculating the X vector for which they want to measure output loss of the layer. In theory it's possible to feed actual datasets into these models as well, which could be another way to get a sparse model that's more acutely optimized towards one task. The original model produces the X activations on each layer, and these are used as the optimization criteria for the pruned version.

It might be able to provide performance similar to fine-tuning but without the weight skew that you'll necessarily see in parameter values.

Not really; at least in case of SVB they did took risks they shouldn't and paid for it.
I've read that AMD's 7040-series mobile CPUs will have an "FPGA-based AI engine developed by Xilinx" [1] - I'm wondering how programmable that will be.

I know there's been some performance difficulties emulating the PlayStation 3's various floating point modes. It's the kid of thing that I think an on-chip FPGA could theoretically help with, although I don't know if it'd be worth the trouble in this specific case. (Or if AMD's implementation will be flexible enough to help.)

I actually think Madoff is a great example of comparison, and didn't mention that because I felt someone else would call that a strawman, ironically, or at least choose to say something about the difference in the size of those frauds.

The main difference is the time, you're choosing to ignore that. 8 months versus .... how many years for Madoff? A decade?
BPUK Response to the Guardian on Bitcoin mining's environmental impact
The "internet computer" is a description of a general category of things: blockchain computers that share state with verification, consensus, and guaranteed data availability as irrevocable properties of those systems.

Although a16z did invest in "Internet Computer Protocol" (formerly known as Dfinity) years before, the term here is being used in the general sense, and Dfinity adopted the term later for marketing purposes.
> what is stressing you out

I stress over far more than I should, just talking with people over the phone, most 1on1s (for no reason, I've never been fired I've always left of my own choice and never forced to leave either). Slowly I start to stress over everything.

> what do you do to stay sane and keep yourself going?

Volunteering. Just getting my mind off of my problems and helping others really clears my head, I stress less over my own issues and end up feeling accomplished and usually have a really good time. Something else I've learned about volunteering, organizations which are fully non-profit and have no employees (everyone is a volunteer) attracts very different people, those who actually enjoy and want to help others, they are really nice to be around and volunteer with/for. I've been volunteering for ~20 years and still love it. Mind you I don't mean huge events either, a Saturday here and there.
Yeah, writing a thesis on it right now; this + adapters give so many options to play with and Meta was nice to give me access to their research models.
It’ll be interesting. I’m not entirely sure what to make of it to be honest. We have a massive shortage of software. Even with the low cost of software development compared to manufacturing you still need operating capital. Especially for hard problems. Without high risk VC dumping billions into the private market I could see the US drastically falling behind other countries. The entire reason why the US has been so far ahead in the tech sector is because of how much high risk capital we’re willing to invest.
> Neat. If the author is around, might I suggest pushing some of the 'why use an FPGA' to the front?

I think the problem is identifying cases where you really need an FPGA. Most of the time you don't.

I think this is good but I also fear it might let people feel more comfortable about tracking then they should. As I type this I can open up WIGLE or a multitude of other apps and see if my roommate is home just by looking for his devices BT signals. We leak a lot of data and now people are more generally aware of the possibility of tracking someone and not needing James bond esque tech. A motivated person could easily put two and two together and devise a way to keep tabs on someone with no tags required. Obviously HN will be more aware of this in general but I wish more people would take note of tracking in general and ask if they're okay with automatic plate readers, ubiquitous video surveillance or the multitude of ways a retailer can track your habits in (and out of) stores.
> A project that promises to return USD 10 for every USD 1 invested is still an attractive investment when the ratio is 8:1 or 7:1

What in the world experience have you or anybody else ever had where a software project can be estimated with that level of accuracy?
Yes, I expect that this isn't just de-dollarification, but a move away from any over-weighted dependency.

I.e. countries reserves will move to diversified portfolios of currencies and assets (gold, etc.) that minimize general financial risk, but also foreign economic-political influence.
> Anecdotally I can say that trying to enable `-XStrict` in production caused performance issues that prevented us from trialing it further.

hah this is in many ways indirect proof that laziness-by-default is improving performance. It may even be that a rote translation to strict (which `-XStrict` does) is causing _time_ leaks, which are actually pervasive in production strict-by-default code.
> world can't help you if a drunk driver

While yes, we will need to account for this while driving. I do wonder if this takes us way to far from the root. People drive drunk so we need busses to be safe? Sometimes attribution is key and in this case I think we need to allow drunk driving's cause of death be "alcohol industry" and not "driving".

This leads into my argument that if we need gun more control in this country it's only logical we also need more direly Food control and Alcohol control (both obesity and drunkenness harm far far more people than guns)
The web1, web2, web3 model makes sense. And it captures three totally different network architectures, each of which have different economic consequences.

web1 -> peer-to-peer decentralized networks without built-in consensus or economics; end up de facto centralized because of this

web2 -> corporate owned networks; from iMessage to Tiktok to Reddit, this is most major networks today

web3 -> networks whose decentralization is enforced by cryptography and economics; Ethereum being one such example of a programmable network

If the terms were just marketing that would be one thing. But they actually describe real differences in properties that have significant consequences for those who build and rely on them.
P3P also existed, but no one had any respect for it beyond sending it fake policies to get their third-party cookies enabled.

You can get features done very quickly in Haskell after the initial learning curve that most languages have. The type system lets you catch a lot of mistakes before runtime and in my experience things are more likely to work the first time in Haskell.

Testability does require some forethought but if your codebase always takes that into account then it's as easy as other languages.

Everything looks like this in hindsight. You can trace any significant thing through a series of seemingly unlikely events.

You can do it with your own life and career if you wish. The larger things you can impact now makes the smaller things you did earlier look more significant.

You and I experience the world very differently.

As is typical, many of the pieces were primed to lead to the Web outcome, and Berners-Lee was the right person in the right place at the right time. It certainly could have been someone else. Just as another company would have done some variation (better or worse) of what Apple did with the iPhone (most of the pieces were ready to do it well and Jobs saw that).

The more intriguing question is how things might have occurred differently, if the beginnings were derived from a different set of factors & actors. It could have been a lot more obnoxiously commercial from the beginning (AOL & CompuServe style).
> What makes this even worse, is that Yellen would have lost nothing had she said they would back every bank and not just large banks - small bank failures are just not that common, and the risk is low, (and can be walked back in two years when the tension lowers).

FDIC is supposed to protect smaller individual depositors, not gigantic companies with hundreds of millions of dollars in deposits. Gigantic companies have financial teams that should be tasked with protecting their operating capital.

FDIC is also a last-resort. The idea is that bank assets are sold off and all depositors are made whole. It's very difficult and time-consuming to do this with a mega bank though.

Maybe FDIC limits should be raised, but the problem with that is someone needs to pay for it. Perhaps companies with $100MM deposits should be paying for private insurance.

> What alternatives would you suggest?

Can't speak for OP, but it feels like every mature language/runtime out there has a framework or two that are popular.

Ruby has Rails: https://rubyonrails.org/

Python has Django: https://www.djangoproject.com/

Node has Express: https://expressjs.com/

PHP has Laravel: https://laravel.com/

Java has Spring (nowadays Spring Boot in particular): https://spring.io/

.NET has ASP.NET: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/aspnet/what-is-aspn...

This can change with time, of course, but I'd say that it's hard to go with any of them, even Ruby on Rails is pretty good in most respects, as long as you don't try to fight what's idiomatic in it.

As for the performance, having a quick look here might give a very vague idea (though the code for those benchmarks is sometimes optimized a bit too much), though running your own is best: https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=data-r21&f=z...

Elon is like that guy who got drunk and was thrown out of a bar. And then he buys the bar and fires the bouncer. And then a Nazi biker gang starts cooking meth in the back room. But he won't hire back the bouncer who threw him out so he says he likes Nazi bikers and anyone who doesn't is censoring. And the normies no longer come to the bar, so he 10Xs the prices for groups who used to use the back room until the Nazi bikers started cooking meth there, and they don't come anymore. And none of this is the bar owner's fault, and Calacanis, Sacks, and Andreesen who still drink there wonder why people can't distinguish them from the Nazi bikers because they are nothing alike.
This is meant to be an introduction though, right? You can simply write “some people do X, and others claim Y is better” then move on.

I read several paragraphs of the article and I still don’t know why you’d use one, despite taking computer architecture and analog electronics courses in undergrad.

I don’t want to read about logic gates again and I don’t want to read about the nuances before I broadly understand what the point is.

For anyone else still wondering, here’s Wikipedia:

> FPGAs have a remarkable role in embedded system development due to their capability to start system software development simultaneously with hardware, enable system performance simulations at a very early phase of the development, and allow various system trials and design iterations before finalizing the system architecture.

Basically, rapid prototyping I guess. That makes sense.
You can't embrace open source, stand for freedom on the Internet, and simultaneously engage in dark patterns like this without destroying user trust. And trust with users is the currency of the 21st century as much as data is the new oil.

Microsoft needs to get their brand straight and decide, once and for all, what they stand for. There was this incredible move towards open source, and embracing the modern web, and so many positive developments. I think myself, and many other technologists, were going, "Wait, is this is the same company that shoved IE down our throats for years and got sued for anti-competitive practices?" It was glorious, and shocking.

All of that is now at risk so that some product manager can look good by driving enforced but entirely fake adoption of Edge — that should be nipped in the bud and a clear message sent that this era is over — from the top executives.

Or I supposed they could do nothing, and then it truly is sending a clear message as well. But perhaps not the one Microsoft intends to send, or the one that would benefit the company in coming years in terms of staying inside the good graces they have managed to create.

Consciousness means there is "something it's like" to have an experience. It need not be human. That would be needlessly anthropocentric. Animals have a range of sensory organs and body plans which differer from humans. Why wouldn't they also have a range of differing conscious experiences? It could be seeing the world in more than three primary colors, hearing frequencies we cannot, detecting the Earth's magnetic field or numerous other things.

We can also imaging making an even wider range of conscious machines someday, if somehow we figured out how to do that, or it was an emergent property of the right sort of architecture. There could be all sorts of conscious experiences we have absolutely no idea about.

However, some estimate that over half of U.S. banks are insolvent.

Some people don't understand fractional reserve banking, and consequentially make inaccurate estimates that make for clickable headlines but not useful analysis:

BuzzFeed, Gawker and now Vice media are bankrupt. I'm sure they're just the beginning.
They are the similar in the sense that in both cases the narrative blamed the consumers while the fault lied somewhere else.
They're all insolvent because they were required to buy USG bonds, whose value has gone down as the Fed increased rates to fight inflation.

The only way to fix the insolvency crisis would be to invent a time machine to go back and stop QE/ARP/IRA.

If you print a trillion dollars, inflation goes up. To stop it, you have to take a trillion dollars out of the economy. When you do that, it's painful and unpleasant and businesses go bankrupt. This should not be a surprise.

They weren't making risky investments.

They failed because they over invested in near 0% interest US treasuries, and then the Fed rapidly hiked rates to 5%, quickly collapsing the value of those low interest treasuries on the market.

The investments themselves, and the promised return, were always "risk free", but the house of cards collapses when everyone demands their money now. And when people are looking at their savings interest rate of 0.1%, and seeing other banks offering 4%, it becomes very easy for a bank run to start as people simply move their money chasing yield.

The problem seems multi-faceted and complex, and like most complex problems, true blame is likely diffuse and shared amongst everyone, the customers, the banks, and the Fed. This is usually the kind of situation where societies elect a scapegoat to murder so they can all go about their business pretending to solved the problem and purged the evil from amongst their ranks.

It would be a legitimate position to take. The system sustaining Beyoncé revenue is approximately the same one which is used to justify star CEO revenues.

The interesting question isn’t is it expected that top CEO will earn more than average CEO anyway. It’s why has the gap between the salary of top CEO and their average worker grew so much in the past 50 years. It’s a legitimate question to ask.
