Unless a better option comes out in the next few months, I might pick one up. It seemed a bit pointless to upgrade to anything below 16 GB, and up until now that meant a 3090 or 4090. And the prices for those are pretty steep for hobbyist use.
Didn’t know this - true as of MySQL 8.X. I would say “shocking” if it wasn’t in keeping with a number of dubious decisions made over the years. We are using MySQL, but thankfully are generating UUIDs in our app layer.

I want to do a custom imposter-based rendering engine to handle particle systems (actually little “spheres” representing atoms in a molecular simulation) in the hundreds of millions.

I want to try out bevy because I’ve heard it is very modular so it would be easier to swap out stuff like this. What part of bevy would I need to look at modifying to support this?
Thought I was up against the character limit, sorry.
What has the length of copyright have to do with this? The same court case could have happened in the 80s before Warhol died.
I’m still wondering if there will be a last minute bail on this product. It seems unlikely given the recent news that suggests they didn’t want to crowd WWDC with other items, but the more we hear about the internal conflict, and the more we’ve seen regarding how XR’s been received by the public, this seems like a really challenging product regardless of how really good it is.

I find VR fascinating, but I kind of don’t want this product to happen.
Graphics quality was the biggest punch line for Zuck's Metaverse demo
I didn’t know the chip shortage had gotten this bad. :)
I'm not convinced that this is the case.

A lot of computation-heavy workloads do in fact scale rather well with an increased core count. That's why GPUs are essentially using thousands of cores, after all: nontrivial computation virtually always implies a sizeable amount of data, and a lot of data usually implies that you can split it up into multiple sections to compute in parallel.

A lot of desktop code is still single-core, that is true. However desktop CPUs are idle >90% of the time, only waking up to do a small burst of computation every once in a while. You're not going to notice some event loop finishing in 0.8ms instead of 1ms. Even then it'll probably be running multiple tasks from multiple processes in parallel, making good use of the available cores.

CPUs have simply gotten fast enough that they aren't a bottleneck for desktop use anymore!
This is very well said. Just as a fan of fast cars and classics, I appreciate being able to talk the ins and outs with people who are also so inclined. Many of whom are not really into driving, and more into the beauty of the machines. Yes, they're also a teenage symbol of "freedom" - I grew up in LA in the 80s-90s, where rich kids had expensive cars, but cool kids had hot rods or souped up rice rockets. It wasn't just mobility, it was your most expensive and treasured possession. But it's actually a pretty false, limited type of freedom, as I realized when I grew up, sold my Camaro and left the States for 12 years. That sense of freedom from your parents turns out to be a few road trips in your life. It's not like you can just drive down to Patagonia (unless you want to court imminent death a dozen times along the way). In any event, basically no one does it. So the freedom aspect is kinda bunk, like all the other freedoms Americans think they have but never actually test.

In terms of the pure pleasure of driving a difficult-to-drive, classic that I saved and restored from the scrapyard, with a hair trigger clutch, listening to every sound from the engine, I feel like I'm probably one of the only people I know who enjoys doing it every day. But it's driving as an art, just like fixing cars is an art. I think that's the true value of the car culture, not the commercial patina of "freedom" sold with every lease.
Llama.cpp runs mostly on CPU. I say "mostly" because it's possible to compile it with cublas to use GPU for some of the computations.

My 2060 Ti 12GB is usably fast for SD, so I’m guessing these will work great.
it's not profitable to mime Bitcoin on graphics cards any more, you need a dedicated ASIC. Ethereum was profitable, but they have moved ot proof of stake now, so there's not nearly as much demand for gpu mining
Ok - well, residential in Manhattan is $150/square foot. Commercial $85. So… seems worth it?

And billions of redevelopment investment? GDP and employment!
I agree, they capture a moment in some ways better compared to a static photo. Not replacement but a nice feature on their own.

HN's conception of software developer is just very different from the labor bureau. Someone who makes wordpress sites, knows a little html, css, and teensy amount of javascript is a software developer.

These folks do not actually earn a great wage because they know less than what many bootcamp grads come out of a 12 week program with, but they exist in multitudes.
It's an 8088, not a 80286! This one isn't even 16 bit.
You ran out of space on your iCloud account! Now your phone won't be backed up and your data will be in danger! <spooky sounds>
I don't think that is a very good example of active harm due to inheritance. Marvin gaye could have done the exact same thing if he was still alive.
You can get that from me by calling and asking if Henry is there. I will answer "No, I'm sorry, but you must have the wrong number". Cheap with Twilio.
That's still the case, though.

Like it or not, computation is cheap and developers are expensive. Code isn't worth optimizing until it either becomes a bottleneck, or you are running it on thousands of machines.
Curious. Why do we need an actual 8088? Aren't all x86 processors backwards compatible with 8088/8086? Also last time I checked VGA cards supported legacy modes such as CGA, and EGA (this may not be the case anymore).

Any modern Intel laptop should be able to run the same software, without emulation.
By that logic dogs would probably win since you have to literally pick theirs up twice a day with your (admittedly covered) hand instead of scooping it just once in the morning.
"it is not clear if there is a way."

This is what the car lobby wants you to think. The transformation to a better and more livable city free from overwhelming car traffic is closer and faster than you imagine. The primary challenge is the power of the car-industrial complex both inside and outside government and the continued work to destroy and hobble other forms of transit.
The malt definitely had less diastatic power, which is its ability to convert the starches to sugars during mash. They may have had some tricks of the trade, or they may have just ended up with less conversion. If it was the latter, you could manipulate your mash to emulate, but without knowing the goal you'd just be guessing. And the yeast, you're absolutely correct. And that's one of the biggest contributing factors in the finished product, especially with no hops involved.
Sprinkles of "safe" AI would be wasting a user's time considering how far an uncensored non-commercial LLM can get you per curiosity.

I still remember when I moved from Cleveland, Ohio to San Jose, California. I moved in the winter. I had an grapefruit tree in my front yard at my first boarding house. It dropped decent grapefruits. My second boarding house had an orange tree in the backyard. They were delicious; more than we could eat in a season. And the first winter, weeks and weeks went by with no clouds in the sky. I remember calling my relatives, standing outside in my backyard, telling them about the weather. Crystal clear blue skies. That winter re-wired my brain. The weather is so sh-tty in Cleveland... Good weather changed my life.
Hey, check out this paper, it’s probably got a bunch of descendants by now:

Also DreamCoder is relevant.

I reckon the answer to your real question is “yes”
Turn and see who's jumping out of helicopters and limos.
It would require the camera to be on without notifying you, which isn't possible on modern OSes. Also, changes in pupil size are caused by many different things. That question is similar to asking whether heart rate can be used as a signal. They're not tracking eye dialation for funny face filters. That level of tracking requires cameras better than phone selfie ones.

"The responses can have a variety of causes, from an involuntary reflex reaction to exposure or inexposure to light—in low light conditions a dilated pupil lets more light into the eye—or it may indicate interest in the subject of attention or arousal, sexual stimulation,[3] uncertainty,[4] decision conflict,[5] errors,[6] physical activity[7] or increasing cognitive load[8] or demand."

True but that's not who I'm thinking about.

Currently, to correctly use LLM output you must:

- Understand that they are basing answers on particular set of content that may not be correct, and was fixed in time.

- Understand that the company producing it has not programmed in each response.

- Understand that the LLM does not (as far as we can tell) have an internal concept of truth and lies, and is therefore not attempting to minimise lying, only produce truthful-sounding language.

Most people engaging with LLMs today do not know these things, and this is why we already have examples like professors asking ChatGPT if it generated student essays, and failing those students – something it is entirely incapable of answering.

Expanding access to 1bn users is going to run into this far more. We clearly don't have the ability to communicate these nuances effectively to early adopters, let alone 1bn users, and that's not because they're stupid, it's because LLMs are in an uncanny valley – they appear human, but are not in important ways that we have not encountered before as a society.

For a long time to come, the norm will be that people will assume OpenAI wrote the answers for each question, in the same way that most people assume Google programs the search results for each query. Anything outside of this is a minority tech bubble.
This article wins a gold medal for click-baiting. Readers can skip the text, but the art is beautiful and deserves some attention.
Cities existed before cars, including cities with ambulances, police, fire services, deliveries and public transportation. Yes you still need places to move through and ways to move things, cities weren't a single failed monolithic building before cars. What you don't need is 1 million people with 1 million cars and 2 million parking spaces so they can each drive 3 miles to work at 8am and 3 miles home at 6pm and leave their cars unused 23 hours every day.

On the one hand, sure. On the other hand, beware survivorship bias.
Wildfires are expected to get more intense and longer as climate change goes on in the PNW. I don't think you're going to want an inferno to be a destination point. It's nothing against the PNW - it's a beautiful part of the country we definitely need to preserve but if you're looking at things in decades I don't think you'd want to invest considerably into a tourist destination there if you're Disney is all.
The end goal of this product isn't to run software, it's to hold a piece of history in your hands and play with it and revel in that feeling.
Yeah. They're not perfect, and I've had problems with them a couple times, but they mostly just work. The audio latency is also better than anything else I've used.
> I would be interested to hear what about the ergonomics of data.table you find useful. if there are some ideas that would be helpful for DataFrames.jl to learn from data.table directly I'd be happy to share it with the devs.

Personally, my main usability gripe is that it's difficult to do row-wise transformations that try to combine multiple columns by name. I know one can do
```
transform(df, AsTable() => foo ∘ Tables.NamedTupleIterator)
```

But this is 1) kind of wordy and 2) can come with enormous compile times (making it unusable) for wide tables
It really doesn’t at all. People who want to show off still buy rolls Royce’s and Bentleys and so forth.

And yet the Steam hardware survey has Nvidia at 76% compared to AMD at 15%. Most of that isn't because of ML performance.
You hit the nail on the head, especially about the time-consuming aspect. People confuse honesty and respect. You can always be truthful while still maintaining respect and appreciation of others.

"Did you like my singing?"

Option A: "No. You sounded like an animal being slaughtered. If this is a hobby of yours, I would recommend a different one."

Option B: "Not really."

Option C: "It is not my style, but you sounded like your were enjoying yourself."

Option D: "You really had a lot of passion. There were times you struggled, though, so you should record yourself and practice on those points. When you have everything ironed out, I would be happy to offer an honest critique again."

This is going from rude responses to respectful responses. Option B is actually more honest than Option A, but is less 'brutal'. However, if a person is truly seeking a critique, you can offer one in detail, but it is probably better to ask if they are seeking your actual preferences or your critique in that type of situation.

The band saw machines are a kind of sawing equipment that uses a ring-shaped endless band saw blade as a saw tool, which is wound on two saw wheels to make a one-way continuous linear movement to saw wood. It is mainly composed of a bed, saw wheel, band saw blade, saw blade guide device, worktable, guide plate, etc.
Photoshop is general image manipulation, layers brushes, all the power.

Lightoom is more for photography. Ingest workflow, applying small changes like colour adjustments and applying them on batches. Non-destructive edits, working with raw images without the need to "render" them into bitmaps.

After Lightoom 6 they moved to Creative Cloud, to a fairly expensive subscription. Furthermore, they did a revamp to become more inline with their mobile offerings, and started feeling even more sanded down.
Agreed about Go-like interfaces. I don’t think it’d fit Zig to make them dynamic at runtime the way Go does, but even just as a compile-time constraint it would make building a composable ecosystem like Go’s much easier. See writer: anytype.

>The generated code always checks the various return codes and always uses the correct column ordinals and column types when binding or reading data to or from the SQLite system — areas that are notoriously difficult to get right and keep right.

If you care mostly about this part, and are using C++20, you can use meta programming to accomplish this with some annotations of your SQL statements, and avoid code generators and separate syntax.

You can bind the parameters in any order, as long as the names are correct. If you don't bind any non-optional parameters or have the incorrect type, you will get a compile time error.

It seems like consumers just don't want VR/AR. We've had compelling experiences for a decade. But it seems like only a subset of console gamers, already a small population, care to buy a VR headset.
You're probably dealing with the kind of citizen that waits 2 minutes to park in front of the store... when there's several free spots just 10 metres away. Can't park close enough!

Also, wonder what 'other' is in that chart.
It's pretty simple, I just add a glossary of terms at the top.

When asking for creative but well-structured output that requires specific definitions of certain words to be useful, I've found it works best to use words for your terms that don't actually exist. Otherwise it seems to focus a bit more on the broader word more than it should rather than your definition, especially if you use it a lot.
I did.not.realize.this either!

I mean, it makes sense, but ouchiewauva, how much is that misstating the typical conscious intent of the user :O
One way to make public transit safe and clean would be to provide housing, addition treatment, and mental health services. There are a lot of people with serious behavioral problems who use public transit as rolling mental hospitals because they have no where else to go.
well, you cant have the machine harm a person (however much fun that seems) but you can give them the impression they can just run away and have them run against an algo that will only just prevent it. It should be crafted perfectly to keep the test subject under the impression they almost made it. If they want to fall down and hurt themselves that is entirely up to then. There is the calm voice instructing to wait for the authorities, that is the best we can do.

If they some how run to fast or if someone comes to help them with a rope sudden stops and reversal should make the adventure more adventurous.

The goal is to convince the test subject it isn't worth damaging the machine. People like that have a hard time remembering what not to do.

I'm not a sadist, the machine will feed them however long they are stuck there.
What city? It is probably not very dense.
And wasn't K&R function definition syntax removed in the latest C standard anyway?
When it comes to the office-vs-home discussion everybody is just plugging their own personal preference. Clearly there is a mix. Personally, I love going into my office: it's close to me and has amenities and coworkers I like very much, and I'm personally much more productive there than at home. I realize there are plenty of people who prefer and are more productive working from home. But clearly it's not nearly as superficial as a necktie. Onboarding in particular is demonstrably more difficult to do remotely. Maybe a happy balance for new hires is an extended in-office orientation followed by the option to go remote, although this also requires some senior employees to be in the office to help with orientation.

Ofc the benefits of this have to be weighed against real estate costs. Let's just stop pretending anybody knows exactly what the office situation will be in the coming years.

Speaking as someone in tech, honestly I don’t care what happens to it in 5 years. It will be outdone by then by much better models and I’ll be upgrading, because $3k every three years for a device that I use everyday is pittance.
Not currently. Rendering is provided by the wgpu library, which wraps vulkan/directx12/directx11/webgpu/metal/opengl es/webgl2. No webgl1 support. If wgpu gained webgl1 support in the future then bevy would too, but it's unlikely imo. Webgl2 is already extremely limiting as it is (no storage buffers/textures, no compute passes).

What is your use case for needing webgl1?

Bevy is also extremely modular. If you absolutely need webgl1 support, you can implement it yourself as a plugin without losing the rest of the non-rendering parts of bevy like audio, input, the core ECS of course, etc.
Yea, but the author is in the present day and is using the terms beer and ale which are present day terms - not speaking a medieval language. They seem to think that beer and ale are different because of hop content- which isn’t true. To quote “The difference between medieval ale and beer was that beer also used hops as an ingredient.”
I think you may have missed the point, and I apologise, if I didn't infer your thought as it was intended.

At any level of the stack, the hacker mindset of "learning how things work...(and utilizing that knowledge)" is generally applicable.

It's arguable that while, say, Steve Jobs wasn't a technically adept hacker, he was a business, product and people/behavior hacker.
