If you ever been poor, you don’t understand the stress that money puts on a relationship. And that’s just to start with. Poverty also increases stress which increases a likeliness to use drugs to combat the stress. Also, as other people pointed out, it’s most times more economic feasible for people in poverty not to get married because they would be penalized by getting married.

Poverty causes stress and stress causes aberrant behavior.

I might qualify this to say that poverty without spirituality causes fatherlessness.

Tangent to this, I've always wondered whether stimulant drugs like ADHD meds, also stimulate the metabolisms (incl. reproduction rate) of bacteria and/or parasites living in your body. (Dopamine and its receptors are really, really old, evolutionarily; at least some prokaryotes produce dopamine and have dopamine receptors. All eukaryotes definitely do — which includes all parasites.)
It's good to read at least as far as the sub-headline:

> As it turns out, the end result - the 6501/2 - was actually very competitive with the 6800. So whilst the original intention wasn't to compete with the 6800, in the end it did compete with it very successfully in some important markets.

Another subtlety: the ecosystem.

Obviously a cheaper cpu encourages usage in more places. Read: more users & more designers working with it.

Over time, that means more tools (including better ones), more OSes to run on it, more application software, more code examples, more existing systems that can be used to kick-start a new design, more knowledge in the field to work around quirks, etc.

Often that ecosystem weighs heavier than cpu features, price or performance. Yeah a 'nicer' cpu will drop in price. But by then it's late to the party.

I could still taste the difference after decanting to a cup. I felt like it was still mostly can/bottle, but didn't have an American bottle to use as a control.

There definitely is a subtle difference. I was about to pick out the different drink reliably. It's just hard to imagine the difference is make-or-break between enjoying and intolerable for anyone. And it less likely comes from the sweetener and more from the Mexican water versus the water at your local Coca-Cola bottler.

West coast Coke vs East coast Coke would be an interesting test I've never thought about doing.

Although both LDM inference and encoder-decoder and decoder-only LLM inference are both fundamentally autoregressive in nature, LLM inference is memory bound and LDM inference is compute bound. In that light, it makes sense that the difference between a 4090 and M1 Pro isn't as pronounced as one would expect at first approximation.

Also, as you hint whisper.cpp certainly isn't one of the fastest implementations of whisper inference out there. Perhaps a comparison between a pure PyTorch version running on the 4090 with an MLX version of Whisper running on the M1 Pro would be fairer. Or better yet, run the whisper encoder on ANE with CoreML and have the decoder running with Metal and Accelerate (which uses Apple's undocumented AMX ISA) using MLX, since MLX currently does not use the ANE. IIRC, whisper.cpp has a similar optimization on Apple hardware, where it optionally runs the encoder using CoreML and the decoder using Metal.
Same goes for I/O scheduling. The virtual memory subsystem seems to only have two modes: buffering and write-out. The system will buffer writes until some threshold is reached, then it switches to write-out mode and flushes all dirty pages regardless of their age. The problem is that new pages are locked during write-out, so pending writes will stall, regardless of the memory pressure on the rest of the system.

A better design would be to only lock a subset of dirty pages and let new writes to virtual memory continue while the write-out is happening, but it doesn't seem like the system can accomodate that.

A simple test to see this in action is to use netcat to transfer a large file across the network, and monitor the device activity with sar or atop (or just check the disk/network activity lights). What you'll see is that while the disk is writing, network activity drops to zero, and when network activity resumes, the disk remains idle again for seconds. It doesn't matter how much smaller you make vm.dirty_background_{bytes,ratio} with respect to vm.dirty_{bytes,ratio}, the network traffic will block as soon as the "background" disk write starts. The only effect a low value for vm.dirty_background_{bytes,ratio} has is to increase the frequency at which the network and disk activity will alternate.
When your competition gets funds and you don't it puts you at a disadvantage.

You can see NEVI as an example.

I agree they are bad in the game industry, but conveniently ignored was the second part of their post about the non-gaming company... 1 week per year is common, but most common seems to be 2 weeks w/ 1 week per year on top and capped after a number of years.

I didn't say only high profile companies gave severance. I'm saying 3+ months is rare and it seems normal because it is a marketing tool used like this.

Also to restate, my experience translates to what is currently happening in tandem with the last two periods. I know someone who was recently let go getting 4 weeks after 16 years.

I don't quite follow you.

Is that because mothers wealthy enough not to be on welfare don't need to stay single to stay on welfare?
I know my company is hinting at layoffs in Q1, well hinting, they've literally said they've budgeted money as an expense in Q4 to pay out severance packages in Q1. So they're at least waiting until after to give people their walking papers. That said, I'm not sure if the anxiety of not knowing if you're in a future layoff is maybe worse since now everyone is concerned, but then again, at least you can act accordingly, maybe layoff the credit cards.
The article describes it pretty well. If it's still not resonating, I know it might come off disingenuous but really I would suggest pasting the description from the article into chatgpt and asking it to describe it to a "lowly systems guy" as you refer to yourself.

Is their LU benchmark just LU factorize and possibly solve? That seems like an odd candidate for this kind of problem, because of course anybody running that kind of problem that cares about performance just doesn’t over-subscribe their system… the scheduler has a much easier job when there’s one big chunky thread per core.

I mean, I get that they are testing a general fix for the sort of problems that, like, non-scientific-computing users get. So it isn’t to say the work is useless. It just seems like a funny example.

I think coming up with benchmarks for schedulers must actually be very difficult, because you have figure out exactly how silly of a thing you want the imagined user to do.

> if one says "we let them keep their five-year-old laptop" and another says "we gave them several months severance pay", that will be a factor in my decision.

This is a great idea in theory, but do remember that organizations are made up of people, and the decision makers in the past may not be the same decision makers in the future.

It is beyond parody to refer to "not giving money that was not earned" as acting in an "adversarial capacity".

Your argument is completely detached from reality, and devoid of logic.

> They are the ones that made the tech good enough for mainstream adoption.

So, this is a common idea, but it doesn't _really_ gel with reality. The Tesla S, Nissan Leaf, VW's first electric car platform, and the Renault Z-E platform are contemporaries to within about a year (iirc it was Leaf, then an unsuccessful Z-E-based car, then eGolf in limited quantity, then S, then mass-market eGolf and Renault Zoe). Of these, the Leaf sold far more units than the S over its lifetime; the Zoe was about the same as the S, the eGolf somewhat less.

Tesla didn't have a _true_ mass-market car until the Model 3 some years later.

If every book cover is selected out of, say, half a dozen candidates, and if it's not selected for the property of "most interesting", then it's statistically more likely than not that the most interesting ones are among the rejects.

This is true for any property of book covers that is not being selected for.

I'm not sure if there is. It depends on their financial security and the positions being eliminated. I guess if the severance is good its not so bad.
Very cool. I wish you would include part of speech for each word.
Kind of… there is an unwritten rule that if you have an expensive looking car without a front plate, it won’t be enforced. In wealthy neighborhoods a substantial fraction of cars won’t have front plates. You will see a lot of Porsches, Teslas, etc. that were sold new without holes for a front plate mount and never had one.

If you have an old beater, or the wrong skin color, you can get pulled over for not having a front plate.

That's like saying, "you don't have to own a car in the U. S.". Yes, it's possible, and many do it. Just like we bought our current house without involving realtors. At the same time one cannot just dismiss the fact that the whole system is built around the involvement of realtors, just as most U. S. cities are built around the idea that to get from A to B you will use a car.

A friend asks you, "you think I should sell my house on Craigslist?". What disadvantages of that choice would you list for them versus using a realtor?
I find it depressing how design systems, which come and go pretty quickly it seems, suffer from profoundly shitty design. Figma is certainly no exception.

Also disappointing is the state of design-system support for programming. I know not everyone wants or believes in code generation, but I find it incredible that this also still sucks. I'm building the front and back end for a new application now, and the amount of manual syncing between them hasn't changed in a decade.

A while ago I had to design a new API for a company's products. After some research, I defined it with OpenAPI. I then wasted weeks or months trying to find

A. Tools that actually supported the current version (3.1), which is the only one that's acceptable because of glaring gaffes in previous specs.

B. Code-generation tools that supported the languages we needed

C. Code-generation tools that worked at all.

It is an absolute shitshow. None of those things is available or works. The moral is that common problems faced by lots (if not most) of us programmers or system designers are still not solved. Don't assume that you're the problem. I made that assumption, but in the end no... the tools and ecosystem were simply shambolic and I would just have to write my own or just strap it on and do the tedious manual work.
This comment is tone deaf as hell.
Oh shit. My bad. I don't know honestly... I got it a couple years ago, and it was everything that Books wasn't.

Apple Books thinks I want to put tiny 1mb epub files in my iCloud, which is full (no idea why) and then it won't save them. So when I reopen, now the book's gone even though I have like 40 gigs free on my phone. Simple interface, simple list of books to choose from, etc. And now the damned thing's gone and I have no idea why.

This is exactly what the apps store model was invented - some else to do the distribution. I think you definitely can just be a builder with the trade off being that the deal maker will take a cut - maybe even the majority cut - from any sales made.

How about the idea that the people working at the dollar store or walmart are making poverty wages while the leadership team hoovers up all the profits? The UAW went on strike this year because the auto makers returned to huge profitability and wanted to keep the concessions the workers gave to keep the manufacturers afloat during the hard times once the hard times were over.

So, yes, it’s not that big of a reach to say that some children are fatherless because the money that might have gone into their parents’ pockets is going to pay for that hedge fund manager’s jet.

Starlink hasn't gotten any money, so they aren't subject to build requirements
Yeah I'm sure the corporate raid had something to do with Motorola dropping the hammer on them over the 6501 pinout. Bill Mensch has said really it was just so they didn't need to design a development system right out the gate, and that they figured other engineers would appreciate that. Seems like it alone wouldn't have been enough to get Motorola mad, especially since they must've known they were just bogging MOS down, and that the pinout wasn't legally defensible reasoning to stop production (MOS and second sources later continued with the 6512, which is effectively 6800 pinout with very, very minor changes).

I respectfully disagree. They were clearly given enough notice - from personal experience as I’ve commented already, as well as from sibling comments.

If you are still “figuring this out”, I daresay it is simply because you haven’t used the paid service and seen the frequent nagging emails about the transition.
I'm not one of those people who jumps on any chance to shit on tesla or elon, but this seems unimpressive.

Even if genetics is the "main determinant" what does that mean? Is it the the plurality of determinants? 51% correlation? 99%? Depending on the number, there's lots of room there for other factors.

I think you're oversimplifying with your example regarding educational attainment. The results say it's not a 1:1, so not all high school students would be marked the same, but it would mean that if you finished your post doc you're likely to score higher than someone who didn't complete grade 9. Would we argue that graduating high school or going on to do graduate work is simply as a matter of intelligence and not a more complex web of economic, social, and cultural factors?
I also think it's over, but I don't see how Stable Diffusion won anything. If something, I see people flocking en masse to dalle3/google/amazon/whatever API is easy to integrate in one side, and consumers paying for Adobe & Canva in the other.
