The performance hit is because Thunderbolt has at most PCIe x4 bandwidth, while internal GPUs are connected to PCIe x16 lanes. That's a massive loss of bandwidth.

> I'm not talking about making things entertaining. But it does matter how you phrase things. You can mistakenly make a complex thing sound simple, and you can make a simple thing sound complex.

Which is obviously true. Storytelling might be a way to deliver that message more clearly in some cases. But to be honest, the sections where the author starts to tell a story, I just glanced over.

Storytelling is overrated – in interviews, in marketing, in non-fictional books.

Clear communication is key.

This is because of EU laws. A lot of the best laws we have in European countries are because of EU laws.

I also suspect that this clause isn't valid in most of Europe.

I'm sure there is a significant segment who loves the discovery like you, and that segment is probably in the millions buy its probably still the minority.

Even in this thread you are the only one I've seen mention this specific aspect.

Most people probably don't care except for a segment of ultra interested people like yourself.

Fwiw YT Music gives me a huge variety of songs it suggests for me at least.

A good example is radio. If you pick a song and do radio Spotify will start to repeat songs after 7 or 8 of them. YT doesn't do it nearly as often.

If you define “important problems” as problems that directly affect human welfare (hunger, access to important information, human health, economic opportunity/pursuit of happiness, public safety, military security), each of these have tens to hundreds of millions of people working on them every day. They are called farmers, doctors, nurses, educators, installation and maintenance personnel, sanitation workers, soldiers, public health professionals, caregivers, etc. Actual workers.

If you mean “visionaries” selling self-serving snake oil solutions to what often prove to be non-problems or insolvable problems, there are rather fewer of these than workers directly implementing daily solutions. Thank goodness for that.

If the visionaries had many years of practical hands-on experience solving day-to-day problems before proposing their broader schemes, more would bear fruit and more visionaries could be funded. But few want to do that preparatory dirty work. And those that have that experience are more valuable to society as managers of the daily work and generally lose their enthusiasm for the endless posturing that goes with high-stakes political crapshoots masquerading as “solving important problems”.

Sure inflation would never subside, but people would still be more able to afford things if wage increases outpaced inflation. Wage increases and inflation are sort of inevitable right now because capital is overvalued. All these schemes to try and control inflation by suppressing wages are bound to fail.

The people who are extracting rents on the economy need to have their rents reduced and inflation naturally eats into those rents. The problem isn't that people at McDonalds are making too much money, they are still making a pittance after all the wage hikes, the problem is unproductive rent seekers.
Wikibooks and Wikiversity are pretty different. The former is about book-like or tutorial-like content (not just textbooks, but mostly any non-fictional content) that doesn't fit in the reference-work format of Wikipedia, whereas the latter is a catchall project for useful education-focused content. Wikisource hosts complete primary sources where allowed by copyright, while Wikiquote focuses on short well-known citations, including from modern works.

But yes I'm pretty sure that Wikispecies would not exist if it was proposed today, Wikidata has basically superseded it. The Wiktionary is a lot more popular but it could also end up being broadly superseded by Wikidata's lexical content.

In the UK I haven't had a pay increase anywhere near inflation since 2019. I've had to move company twice since then in order to maintain or increase my standard of living. I'm now making 65% above what I was making in 2019, whereas if I'd taken the pay increases offered I'd be making 13% more right now than in 2019.

Considering prices in the UK are 22% higher than they were in 2019 that's pretty bad, and IT is a well-paid industry, so you can imagine what it's like for people on lower wages.
The argument often used by governments is that pay rises drive inflation, so must be supressed in order to pull inflation back down.

Problem is, that's not entirely true. The OECD[1] looked at whether workers, business or governments had contributed most to inflation, and the data revealed that in the UK at least, business profits were most to blame.

If wages don't drive inflation, and profits do, you can lower inflation, increase quality of life and create a more equitable society by putting pressure on business to pay their staff more, and have smaller profits.

Of course that won't happen, because we're now living in a dystopian Ayn Rand/Margaret Thatcher-inspired wet dream, so y'know, be safe out there and godspeed.

1. Flow by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi.

Remarkable book that gave me a coherent framework to think about life. The title simply does not do it enough justice, it's not just about the "flow" state, it's about his mental framework for how to organize your life with flow as the centerpiece of your experience.

I've used the copy on my desk so much, dipping in and out I now remember most of the chapters, sub-sections and so on. I'm starting to feel I'm using this book the same way many religious people use their Bibles, Gita etc..maybe I'll eventually memorize large parts of it.

2. Why we do what we do by Edward Deci

It's an older book about human motivation and how it works, it changed the way I think about how to get myself or other people to act meaningfully and I'd say that touched almost all aspects of my behavior.
And headline inflation is just one part of the story. Broad money growth has averaged around 7% for decades for USD, similar for other ‘stable’ currencies, and much worse for the ‘not so stable’ currencies.

If you’re rich enough, you won’t keep your value in cash, but rather will buy some assets using it (equity, property, whatever). If you’re rich enough and smart enough you’ll have realized that you can take loans to finance asset purchases in effect shorting the currency.

However, if you’re not rich enough, depend on your wage, and can’t short the currency by buying up assets, you get the short end of the stick. Some say this is by design.

I recently read an article in the Economist arguing how income inequality has actually gotten better in the rich world. They argued that the wage gap between blue collar and white collar workers has been shrinking. I expect that to accelerate with the advent of AI.

But the wage gap says less and less about income inequality when the society gets divided into owner and wage bound classes.

My criteria for buying erasers: fairly soft and white.

The harder the eraser is the more prone it is to destroying your paper or making smudges. The disadvantage of a soft eraser is that it wears more quickly. I don't buy expensive enough erasers to where that's a problem.

Most pink erasers are fine, but I've had more than once instance of them working more like a crayon than an eraser.

Recently I got recommended trying an edding R20 eraser. It's a weird one. It's much more plastic-y than the average eraser. It's quite firm too, but still manages to not smudge and keep itself clean. Haven't used it enough to form a proper opinion yet however.

Bitcoin is more centralized than some proof of stake chains. Just 3-5 pools control almost all of the hashrate. Many popular proof of stake chains have 20-50 validators, and some have thousands.

> Let's hope the HSM supports secret backup well enough

Secrets backup for HSMs from a certain vendor—that you may or may not have named in your comment—I've worked with is actually the easy part. You just make copies of it and all the key data and check it into a git repo, because all of that data is protected by an HSM secret. Distributing that HSM secret among several HSMs for redundancy is also pretty easy.

The hard part is all the administration around it, specifically around custody of the smart cards that contain chunks of the HSM secret: where are they protected, where are the backups of the cards, who has access to them, coordinating sufficient card custodians to meet quorum, etc. You need to meet quorum to provision HSMs with the same secret.

The real "trust me" part of this is arguably less that the vendor backdoored the HSMs, and more that Apple pays the vendor support contracts (that hardware eventually fails) and maintains the knowledge continuity for the teams responsible for administering these HSMs as people join or leave those teams over time.

For what it's worth, this is pretty much why you don't see HSMs used often at less mature companies.
This proposed explanation is a myth. Profits - often created through the use of investing cheap money (and therefore the creation of more money) - drive inflation. Wages do not. OECD have shown this to be the case thanks to the recent handy experiment in the form of a pandemic arriving after a period of quantitative easing and very low interest rates in the UK.

I thought the broad assumption is that both do, but they also bith kake a wide array of predictions which are useful; unification is about subsuming the demonstrated useful predictions of each within a common explanatory framework (ideally one which also adds additional predictive power, though parsimony is a win without that).
Oh, and regarding how long - it depends how long it takes to fill the circular buffer of non deterministic behaviour.

Serious compute bound workloads can run days with a gigabyte of non deterministic event log. Serious IO bound workloads burn it much faster.

> Contrast that to the last time I worked with Nordic in a professional manner, I had to sign NDAs to get the full documentation and toolchain

That has to be at least 5 years ago, but even back then, 99% of their software was out in the open. Now, their SDK is open source, their official toolchain is based on the Linux Foundation's Zephyr toolchain and their docs are open and buildable. Their support is done on an open forum and complete data sheets are available both as PDFs and (with the exception of the nRF51) as web pages. They aren't allowed to publish their LTE stack because of operator licensing, their Bluetooth link layer is still distributed as a library and some upcoming SoCs aren't publicly available yet, but aside from this, they're as open as they can possibly be.
