My problem with this analysis is ignoring the fact of who is using which computer. So far new people in the company get the M3, while old people have M2, and the people who has been the longest time in the company have an M1. Who is going to work on more critical tasks with more changes in the code? who is going to work mostly in easy bugs until they get some experience with the code in the company? I bet you if you give both populations the same computer the compiling times are going to be faster for the new people. For me the analysis doesn't have enough dimensions, it should take into account the time since the person was hired in the company and the seniority. I would also have added more type of graphs (boxplots seems a better way to compare the information), and also I would have measure the total % of CPU usage. The battery/AC analysis gave me the impression that M3 might be underutilized and that it is going to be impossible to get lower compiling times without faster single core speeds (which might be a relevant information for the future).
In France this is false: nuclear always obtained heavily (albeit indirectly) subsidies: the R&D was public, it was built by a public monopoly using public money and money borrowed thanks to the state vouching for it...

It 'feels' like a loss. I'm sure there are other ways to spin it.

The “clear and internationally acknowledged” criteria for a 'loss' is being caught on camera while the last soldiers evacuate and the enemy takes over.

So technically Vietnam and Afghanistan are losses. Because of the video's.

Cats kill between 1.3 and 4.0 billion birds a year: https://dariuszzdziebk.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/upload...

— Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute & U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

From https://climate.mit.edu/ask-mit/do-wind-turbines-kill-birds

- Wind turbines kill something around a million birds every year

- Power lines kill something around 25 times that

- And "A 2012 study found that wind projects kill 0.269 birds per gigawatt-hour of electricity produced, compared to 5.18 birds killed per gigawatt-hour of electricity from fossil fuel projects"
AFAIK Chinese workers are already more expensive than eastern EU ones (but tight logistic integration makes the overall manufacturing cheaper) and so are Indian devs in India already more expensive than eastern EU devs. "Prosperity"
A lot of things deemed 'unrecyclable' actually are. It's just that it's usually not worth it.
> a minimum Disney would require from Netflix for their content.

and netflix would just play hardball, since the scenario proposed by the grandparent post is one where only netflix is doing streaming.

> Joint-Venture deal with Netflix

which is not the scenario proposed by the GP - and in any case, this is not different from today, where every media company wants to own their own distribution network.
Even now, and I'm pretty sure back then, the relevant warning in GCC is suppressed if the assignment occurs in parentheses, like it did in the diff (clang I believe has the same behaviour). So you would likely need a static analysis tool to flag up the behaviour, and those are quite noisy at the best of times.
These kind of projects are cool to me because they are a sort of blend of retro and modern. In that MCUs only got fast enough fairly recently to do this sort of thing well.

All those older low resolution led scrolling signs you used to see around in the 70s, 80s, 90s, etc, had to use a CPLD or FPGA to get a decent refresh rate. Now that fast-ish MCUs are a thing, it's easier to get a mostly software based solution that looks decent, has a reasonable refresh/scan rate, etc.

Edit: Noted below, I had missed that these were addressable matrixes, not passive ones.
My 4 year old has had unlimited access to most services since 2. Mostly what she does is watches the same 10ish hours of content whatever that is for about a month. And then she picks another 10 hours. This 10 hours may or may not include things from previous 10 hour binges.

Kids like repetition. They are perfectly willing to watch the same season of something over and over again even when they could technically choose to watch something brand new

This was a lot of words to say that LLMs aren't human. I agree they aren't human. Why do you think that training on GPL code that the model does not redistribute is a violation of copyright law?
I’m not sure why people care to mention Vietnam and Afghanistan in the same breath as real wars. These are wars against insurgencies, populations, and ideologies, not governments.

They’re inherently different and the only way to “””win”””(which is a loaded term with wars against insurgents. We accomplished important strategic goals in Vietnam before leaving the country to self determine) is to resort to tactics employed by folks like The Butcher did in Cuba.
Zeno’s nihilism: nothing is worth doing because the mandatory analysis into whether something is worth doing or not takes infinite time.
I sincerely think consumer GPUs are going the way of the sound card: Integrated into the CPU for most price brackets, with discrete options remaining only for those with specific needs (professional/enterprise) and people who don't need to ask how much something costs.

The steel production will still be local... and it's Japan, a close ally. It's not like if war broke out the steel mills would evaporate. If for some crazy reason Japan was antagonistic, they would be nationalized or otherwise forced to behave correctly. We have the Defense Production Act which gives plenty of leeway for the government to change situations when national defense justifies it.
As sibling says, video highlights exactly this feature.
Maybe before buying M3 MacBook for everyone you should consider splitting your 1M line code base to avoid recompiling the whole thing for every change..
I don't know well the go ecosystem at all but it seems to me you should really consider optimizing your code base for compilation speed before creating fancy build time chart per cpu with AI and buying hundreds of super powerfull and expensive machines to compile it a bit faster...
The telemetry pipeline to track build times could be useful in the future \shrug
those are quite personal questinos. why do you need that data, and what are you doing to do with it ?
How much more complex is it to go through the images as frames in a video? Is all the processing (like OCR) done before it's added to the video or is that something you can do on each frame?
It is not taught in US schools that the IS won Vietnam in the sense that the government we backed won. Why do you think it is?

Also, the Korean war was clearly a victory for the US; we intended to defend SK and prevent the spread of Communism, and that’s what happened.
It's never been about anti-Asian racism, either. It's largely targeted at vegans but soy is also an extremely common ingredient in processed foods, and is probably associated more with them because of Soylent and the movie Soylent Green.

More to the point, I've never seen a single soyjak meme that was targeted at Asian people. It's not about Asian people. It's about a specific type of white person.
For planning purposes, "will not be recycled in real life" is indistinguishable from "cannot be recycled".
it's correct that aliasing makes performance harder to reason about

but there are other things you might want to reason about, such as whether a subroutine terminates at all and what it returns, and immutability does make it easier to reason about those things
5+ year old i7 are potato and would be a massive time waster today. Build times matter.
The reason to commit so ferociously to Vietnam was to show our other strategic partners and allies how far USA was willing to go for seemingly small things; if we’ll dump endless troves of blood and treasure for a small country in Asia, what will we do if tanks push into Berlin?
Opening Xcode and a small to medium project targeting a physical device with its own RAM will be fine..no SSD killing. If you are not doing INCREMENTAL builds or start flipping between apps, web tabs, streaming video and messaging while also Xcoding, the amazing thing is that it will work, but as you say, it will likely be hammering the SSD. I wouldn’t really recommend a dev buy 8GB if they can afford 16GB, but I wouldn’t really let them use only having 8GB as an excuse not to be able to make small to medium apps either, they just have to be more intelligent about managing the machine. (Xcode is I/O bound anyway.)
> Not sure what nation's syllabus you refer to though

There’s no need to bring gender ideology into this, the analogy is perfectly valid just referring to prophylaxis, hormonal medication, implants, and abortion. Those are commonly taught in schools around the globe.
The mission accomplished banner was for Iraq, not Afghanistan. USA explicitly achieved its war aims in Iraq 2(and Iraq 1 for that matter).

> Originally, the Senate was the "republican" half of Congress

> The House of Representatives was the "democratic" half

These are both wrong. “Democratic” and “Republican” aren’t conflicting goals; the US isn’t a democratic republic because it has separate sets of democratic and republican institutions.

It’s republican in that state office and political power are not private property the way they are in a monarchy, and its democratic in that the power of the government derives in theory from the consebt of thr governed, and because it has formal electoral institutions designed, loosely, to align those things in practice.

It is true that it is imperfectly democratic, and that this represents a compromise, but that's a compromise with being a federation of states, not with being a Republic. Its a federal democratic republic, where the first two (not the last two) are in tension.

> The 17th Amendment made the Senate almost as democratic as the House

Nowhere close. It made the Senate directly elected, but havigb officers directly elected vs appointed by another institution which is denocratically accountable doesn't make a body particularly more democratic, when the main reason it is imperfectly democratic is unequal (in reperesebted population) apportionment, which is not changed.

> It retains some republicanism in that senators are still not numbered by state population and have longer terms than representatives

Neither of those are “republican” features, and only the first reflects the federal vs democratic character of government. The staggering of terms between House, President. and Senate makes it less likely that a transitory change of popular mood causes a complete change of government, but that's neither republican nor federal more than democratic. Its a feature on a whole different axis.

Maybe I wasn't clear, but my point of view is that efficiency is — rightly — not an important feature of farmers markets (at least to me or people I know), so I'm put off by this paper that is trying to somehow optimize them using POS data. The argument is that this way of looking at farmers markets seems to miss why people patronize them, which is closer to the points you bring up and much less about efficiency. Though as others point out there are probably cases where the FM is more or less efficient than a supermarket, or more well-stocked, my point still stands that the paper feels like it's aiming at something most people aren't asking for.
Thanks for sharing. It's a very cool idea. I briefly tried using it but I don't have an AMD card (just Intel and NVIDIA). How difficult do you think it might be for me to implement support for something like NVENC instead? I only skimmed the code and I'm not sure yet exactly what the AMF code is doing.
It would be particularly strange for US’s military reputation to be damaged by a war it hasn’t lost a man in.

There Are 14 Different Games of Tic-Tac-Toe
I feel like I responded to all of these arguments in my original comment but:

1. The TV station paid for the cartoons and monetized them through advertising

2. As I said, your friend paid for the DVD, The library paid for the comic, etc. SOMEONE is paying or else the original maker would not be able to sustain making the thing. I can't think of one scenario where you consume media where someone didn't pay for it downstream.

3. A comic book artist creating comics inspired by batman, but not a comic OF batman. Again, as I already pointed out, on a small scale this happens all the time, it's just not word DC sueing a guy on the street doing one painting a day.

If the argument is you should be able to pirate or everything should be free, all good, no judgement, but that's not how it works in the world right now.

It IS a sin for a human to get a batman plushie made and sell it. That's my point. That's what MidJourney is doing when they charge $10 a month to make batman photos.

No manufacturing company in the USA let's you do this, that's why you have to go to China to make Nike knockoffs

This same site has an article on that very myth: http://kiwihellenist.blogspot.com/2016/12/salting-earth.html...

To summarize, salting an area was a real thing, but the evidence suggests that it was done to make the land more fertile and not less. The idea was to replace your enemy's city with weeds and greenery, as if it had never existed.

Firefox for many versions now has no way to disable update notification messages, which will repeatedly appear as a popup from the addressbar on every launch, unless one creates a new file with particular content.

Even if one wants a particular version for testing. Chromium doesn't do this ime. And this isn't to say it's a reason not to use FF but it is a counter-example to simply being able to dismiss something without it being annoying.

Pliny the Elder and his son Pliny the Younger are also involved in debunking another historical fakery. This one is about Jesus actually existing and not being made up 100 years later and 1000 kms away, in a different country and in a different language.

As much as you can prove a negative, this guys do it by never mentioning him, despite being at the right place and time, and writing about other religions and prophets.

Even the wikipedia entry on this subject starts with a huge logical phalacy.
It is not too late to extend copyright on Mickey Mouse, even if Disney won't bother to try. Retroactively extending copyright terms to works whose copyright terms had already expired is constitutional according to the Supreme Court in the ruling Golan v. Holder (2012) [1].

The law at issue was the Uruguay Round Agreements Act [2] of 1994:

> 17 U.S.C. § 104A effectively copyrights many foreign works that were never before copyrighted in the U.S.[13] The works are subject to the normal U.S. copyright term, as if they had never entered the public domain.[14]

> The affected works are those which were in the public domain either due to a lack of international copyright agreements between the U.S. and the country of origin of the work, or due to a failure to meet U.S. copyright registration and notification formalities. Also affected are works which did have previous U.S. copyright, but which entered the public domain due to a failure to renew the copyright.

The Supreme Court affirmed 6-2 in Golan_v._Holder that the Uruguay Round Agreements Act did not violate the "limited time" condition of the Copyright Clause [1].

Interesting problem and a good write up! This reminds me a little of audio processing where there are 2 representations, time domain and frequency domain. I’m no expert at this but my understanding is if you want to search for “when” some chunk of audio happened, you first need to convert to the frequency domain via Fourier transfer. But then you lose the time info. So you can’t just take the Fourier transform of the whole file, or even 10 second chunks… you have to take a bunch of short overlapping Fourier transforms – overlapping so you get the nearby context, and short so that you have a higher resolution idea of when something occurred.

I wonder if a similar idea would work here, where you could search at various “zoom levels” - first search for an entire video that’s nearby in terms of embedding, then search within 50%-overlapped 60-second chunks, then within 50%-overlapped 1-second chunks.
Casey Muratori and Jonathan Blow are some of the greatest minds countering the whole programming movement which creates sub par software imo.

These days the default assumption should be that whenever you do anything touching a computer, that information will be packaged, tracked, and sold.
You wouldn't really want to mess with the OS in cases like that, though. If you did, a lot of the OS-included drivers would probably not work due to removal or bit-rot, or 3rd-party drivers might not work with a much newer OS. The only reason you might want to upgrade is if the machine is Internet-connected, in which case you're probably just going to need a whole new box (if you need the old software, you'd probably resort to a VM), otherwise the new OS will run too slow (especially with things like new crypto/security). Or you can keep the old box but put it behind nginx or whatever.

Point of sale or industrial control computers are kind of just an offshoot of "embedded"; not something you need (or want) to run a browser or a modern GUI[0] on. You stick it in a cabinet or a kiosk and hopefully you don't have to think about it again.

Neither of those examples is particularly convincing. Stripe succeeded because it tackled a famously difficult and annoying set of business problems; the technology is important and they're reputed to be top rate, but that's not why they've succeeded as a business. Netflix has no technical moat either; there are half a dozen streaming services that, on a technical level, are completely interchangeable with Netflix. The only difference between them is their respective content catalogues, and while Netflix probably has some advantage in being able to drive content decisions with customer data, that only gets you so far.
I have to say that I enjoy reading about stuff like this. That you for posting this.

You missed most of the talk. The term Psyop-capitalism seems to be a pretty prominent part of the message. As in transitioning from Surveillance Capitalism to Psyops-Capitalism. Which you might interpret as a hype machine or... fraud. Fraud it till you make it?
The power cable operators don't want to waste any energy and will have power monitoring systems at least at both ends, so much as with a fusebox at home, I'm sure that the cable would be switched off very quickly if that happened. In addition, the power would be dissipated close around the source of the breakage by the (not insignificant) electrical resistance of water. Since the North Sea is about 100 metres deep, the only victims in such event would be fish and other seabed creatures. I don't tend to chew power lines, though, so don't worry about me.

I'm not breading it (hmm, that's an idea to try!), and I use a nonstick skillet. I've found that if I keep it on the heat long enough, it will stay together when I start stirring it. I suppose I ought to get a proper wok, but the skillet works for me.
Because buy doesn't exist in a sane form for some things. Kids shows are known for never selling by season and only by some weird theme and of course there are dupes between sets. Buy isn't an option at all for some stuff. I'm looking at you Disney vault bulkshit, but also other not as iconic stuff.

Yes pirate, but that's a problem too. I've tried to pirate some stuff that wasn't popular or it was too old and you're just not able to.

Streaming removes a lot of that hassle. Now that the price is becoming too high, people are considering other options, but there is a reason it exists. Streaming is how I let my kids explore media. Yes, I can just give them my childhood favs, but they need a way to try new shows without me directly interfering and it's been great. I would have never picked out my kid's favs for her.
