In college we included the optimal case in understanding caching. It’s a very worthwhile process. Sieve’s claim is simplicity and lower eviction latency. That should be measured against hits. A tiny fraction more hits will almost always erase the differences between various eviction algorithms. Depending on cache size and the size of what you’re caching, LRU can add a nontrivial amount of memory.

It is promising to see more experimenting with these algorithms.

People are not saying ChatGPT is a human, they're saying it learns like a human so its learning should be legally treated like a human learning.

Laws are based on philosophy, and none of the philosophies upon which western notions of human rights are based rely on the fact that it's a biological human as justification, rather they rely on arguments that apply equally to any conscious self-aware being. Saying that only humans should ever have rights because they're biological makes as much logical sense as only Caucasians should ever have rights because their skin is white.

No that is most certainly why it’s called a hedge fund because they are a hedge against volatility[1].

Also In what way does being uncorrelated make it useless as a hedge? The implication is that if the market goes down your capital isn’t guaranteed to also lose value at the same rate and thus it is definitely a hedge.

> why MotorOs instead of Docker, etc.?

It basically says it already:

> Motūrus OS is a microkernel-based operating system

By and large, microkernel and containers solve the same problem. Except, I wouldn't call containers a "solution", more like a workaround. Not in the sense that containers by themselves are a workaround, but the way they are used is a workaround for the same problem.

The way containers are used today, especially in the context of Kubernetes, is to finely slice the available physical resources. The orchestration allows to manage which part of the application gets what slice of the resource, thus attempting to cut down on waste that's typically generated in the world where resources are managed through VMs. Where the typical problem is that a single VM will require too many resources because of the bloated OS it needs to run and because it's hard to create VMs with very limited resources, since OSes usually come as a package deal.

So, containers "solve" the problem by giving up VM optimization -- instead it's usually beneficial to create very beefy VMs, on top of which then a new virtualization layer is created with containers. This minimized the VM waste, but doesn't get rid of it entirely, and, of course, creates a lot of complications with all the indirection resulting from two-tiered virtualization.

Microkernel is the opposite of this "solution" -- it's the attempt to make OSes more modular, and as such less demanding of resources. Ideally, in the world if microkernels you don't need containers (at least not for the thing they are usually used today): your VMs can slice the resources in the way at least as efficient as containers do (or, hopefully, even better).

So... to predict the next possible question: why containers are so popular and micorkernels aren't: it's because the later is harder on the applications (even when applications don't actually need something, they often use it because it's available in a full-blown OS, applications aren't usually written with resource scarcity in mind). Secondly, containers, essentially, exist on top of somewhat uniform, somewhat stable interface of Linux kernel. Micorkernel VMs would expose users to the zoo of ideas hardware vendors put into their products, making portability difficult. Finally, for all its flaws, Kubernetes is a big system with many (even if not so great) solutions for many problems. So, programmers who fear technology feel like it gives them a safety net and will allow them to program from a more comfortable position of modifying YAML files, copying the most upvoted answers from StackOverflow. There won't be such an easy cake in microkernel world.

That is just BS. In my company we have quite a few 50+ and it's nice to work with them. They add exactly what younger people can't.

Reality is: They need to squeeze every dollar as much as they can. If they could, they would never hire:

1. People with kids

3. Disabled

4. Often sick People (give me your history of sick leave, that kind of stuff)

I'd consider buying a headset that could do the following:

I don't really see a decline in Bandcamp yet. It was great when it launched and is still great today, regardless of its current ownership.

I'm surprised people still stuck with SoundCloud, to be honest, especially after they betrayed the very DJs and producers who had made the service popular in the first place. I canceled my paid account ~10 years ago and never looked back.

> The actual engineering hasn't been as affected or rather while it has been affected it hasn't been affected to the magnitude that you might expect given the size of the lay-offs.

Are new features being added? Honest question -- I don't use the product.

Keeping the lights on for a product with 10% of the workforce isn't shocking or new. We do it in this industry all the time. Can you iterate and ship with 10% of the workforce? That's much more impressive.
I like the idea - but then wouldn't it be nice if your fridge had battery backup in case power went out? or your washing machine could charge cheaply overnight and run during the day?

And then I start to think that maybe the better solution would be a smaller version of something like a powerwall. Maybe something flat that would easily fit behind the kick-board under the units in the kitchen and then could be wired up to provide multiple uses.

Or maybe add a couple of sockets to that induction hob, that let you use it as a UPS for your fridge? Boiling water in 40 seconds might be fun, but doesn't strike me as a killer feature. Only time I've ever wanted a more powerful hob myself, is when I've got my wok out.
Why that instead of striking home and facetiming/zooming on the device itself?

I'm the project author/dev. Thanks a lot for posting this, and for comments/discussions!

I see two main concerns raised here:

(a) long-term viability and support
(b) compilers, binary compatibility, etc.

While the first concern is definitely valid, and without a community this project will not succeed, I do believe that potential benefits of Motor OS (or a similarly focused/structured project) will eventually result in a widely used new operating system. There are major problems with Linux inside VMs (and sometimes outside), and the Linux devs are not focused on this enough to clean things up anytime soon. I work on Linux Kernel at my day job, I know.

Re: compiler instability, binary compatibility, etc.: I'm sorry, I don't understand what is the issue here. The latest Linux kernel can be compiled with different GCC or LLVM toolchains on x86_64, and the result will happily run old binaries compiled years ago with who knows what. repr(C) structs in rust are stable... So why so many concerns here?

Again, thank you all for your comments and questions - I'm happy to answer more (at least until my day job kicks in).
Planes get so much attention precisely because they're so safe. If we reported ever car crash, we'd not have time for much else whereas planes hardly ever crash. Every crash is international news with national investigations because they hardly ever happen.

Now try explaining that to someone with a fear of flying.
Also, the powerful economies are outsourcing to the cheaper ones. For example, I wouldn't be surprised if IT is booming in India still.
People use "screen door effect" and "overly low resolution" interchangeably even though they aren't the same thing. The screen door effect--visible gaps between pixels--in the Quest 3 is minimal, but the resolution is still low enough individual pixels are obvious.

They don't perform poorly, necessarily, just differently. It has to do with the workload and feature set.

I run an A6000 for a live video mixer. It barely touches the RAM and does nothing with the RTX cores but absolutely chews up the CUDA cores.

I also run a quadro sync card that allows the GPU to be genlocked (vsync for the video world) with the rest of the studio.

A feature that I don't use but that's also offered- you can connect multiple GPUs across multiple systems and have them all be frame synced to each other this creating a single output without tearing.
Yes, and that’s accurate. People have carefully monitored it, but the risk is very low and much lower than getting COVID. That doesn’t fit any definition of “ignoring” in the English dictionary just because antivaxxers would desperately love to have something they weren’t wrong about.
> Is hardware going to be the differentiator that makes it so much more useful?

The tech journalists who got an early look seem to think so. Obviously time will tell if this holds up under real world conditions.

I was a VR early adopter and have used the best consumer units available. The thing that always held it back for me was the obvious screen door effect and the isolation of these headsets.

Apple seems to have focused on both of these issues, which makes the device intriguing. Being able to immediately interact with the room in high fidelity will make a huge difference. The AR mode on the Valve Index is awful, but also really cool. If Apple delivers on half of the room AR, it’s a huge step forward.

And a lack of screen door effect makes it viable for real productivity use cases.
Really don't understand what about this thing makes it worth $6KUSD. Induction cookers aren't new technology, and batteries certainly aren't either. Just reeks of yet another "Tech" startup slapping a 1000%+ markup on their BoM because rich folks will pay whatever they're charging for the latest shiny gadget.

Isn't the idea of PWAs that you aren't doing it through Chrome, or not knowingly. You're just running an app, and Chrome (or Blink) is a library that the app can use?
Example: the entire software industry (to include, and perhaps especially, companies that develop software but aren’t exactly software companies) seems to have a problem with splitting tools across a bunch of vendors, many of which have heavily overlapping functionality. It adds friction to everything and makes it harder to see what’s going on, burning god knows how much productivity.

But you can’t fix it by making another multifunctional tool, because you’ll just get people using one or two of your five feature-areas, and two or three other tools for the rest, same as now.

No, it's entirely true. The economy is a closed system. Employees can't "put that income back into the economy", because it has never left.

> Having an app "in the store" does not equate to trust for me.

It's not about you, but the users. iOS users do trust Apple as a proxy in the App Store and consequently spend much more there than even Android users do in the Play Store (on a per user basis).

The great anomaly to this used to be Amazon where Kindle Fire users used to have even higher ARPUs than iOS, but I've been out of the loop too long to know if this is still the case.

Not too long ago I decided to push the limits to see what web apps can do now and did https://luduxia.com/reversi/ - there are no UI libs here, the whole thing bundles in under a second with esbuild, and it runs perfectly on iOS Safari.

Summerland by Hannu Rajaniemi

Yeah, the article does a good job of presenting the problem, but it's solution of hey, let's go back to the 19th century sounds very...naive. We don't have to go backward in order to progress. We've been living unsustainably and wrecking the environment for the past 200 years.

Unfortunately, it's going to take us a lot longer to fix this problem than it did to create it. Hopefully that will be an important lesson learned for future generations.

We push PWAs to iPads & Surface Go devices via Microsoft InTune for some of our clients today.

This path started out very nightmarish (circa 2020) but it's going much smoother today. One of our customers actually came back to us with a slightly improved process based upon the one we gave them. They switched from iPad to Surface Go and used some extra endpoint management to make the PWA experience into a sort of kiosk mode.

The #1 constraint for us is the quality of the environment-facing camera and the level of access we have to its capabilities via the browser. iOS/Safari started out extremely weak on this but is quite good today. I can get a solid 2k environment scan at 30fps from the rear facing iPad camera in Safari today. Things like 2D barcode scan and document capture are 100% feasible now. These items used to make us extremely nervous on product demos but we don't worry anymore.

We almost capitulated and went back to native iOS apps because of the camera issues, but the pain of maintaining a native build chain when you are otherwise a 100% Microsoft shop (with barely 3 developers) was pushing back hard too. We were signing enterprise IPAs for all of our clients for half a decade before we switched to web/PWA. I will never go back to native apps. I'll find a different career path and hobbies if the web goes away.

I don't have a clean answer for B2C other than... I use HN and Twitter in Safari and I don't even process that it's not a native app. Neither of these web properties had to spend a single second worrying about a native app to acquire my business.
That's an underutilization of the complexity theory. Since not all problems are formulated as being Turing-complete, there are better theorems to apply than Rice's Theorem, such as:

* IP=PSPACE (you can verify correctness of any PSPACE computation in polynomial time)

* NIP=NEXPTIME (you can verify correctness of any NEXPTIME computation with two non-cooperative provers)

* NP=PCP(1,log(n)) (you can verify correctness of any NP statement with O(log(n)) bits of randomness by sampling just O(1) bits from a proof)

What these means is that a human is indeed able to verify correctness of the output of a machine with stronger computational abilities than the human itself.
It's a matter of taste and an offense to nature. Would you like it if a cryopreserved embalmed 10 foot tall pile of human feces was permanently enshrined atop Everest or on a buoy at the mouth of the Amazon river? If you felt any revulsion or disgust at the idea, that's probably the way the felt at the idea of the relatively untouched 'nature' of the moon beginning to be used as a novelty landfill/dump for rich people to stow their trash (or important human remains).

And before someone says the equivalent of "just blow them off the map" - this will likely be worse than Afganistan. North Yemen has been bombed for close to a decade already by Saudis and others, and the Saudis eventually decided to negotiate via Chinese mediation.

A few things I'm confused by. For one 10kw would just instantly trip a breaker wouldn't it? Standard household circuits in the US are 110v at 15 amps which is 1.6kw no? A battery could make up the difference but it would either be huge or only last a few seconds.

The temp measure is also a little confusing, but I'm guessing it's measuring the outer temp of the pan. That's definitely pretty good and comparable to a how an oven sets temp. I think it would actually be pretty amazing to include probes and set the temp based on the water or oil in your pot. In that case this would be functional as a sous vide cooker.

People are terrible at assessing risk. Big, scary things like falling out the sky seem like bigger risks because they grab attention, no matter what the stats say.
