Very cool work! Are there papers or repos that do fast splat generation of digitally-originated assets?

That's why the overall unemployment rate changes the population-wide behavior.

You, as an individual, might be forced to remain in that situation but in an environment with low overall unemployment, lots of your peers won't be so forced and so will demand either a raise or will change jobs to self-service the raise. That will tend to get you a non-zero raise (at least on a population-wide basis). If overall unemployment was quite high, employees are less willing/able to make such changes.

Wow, another great explanation!

I didn't know these things, I don't think they are part of the meme-lore about Itanium:

- The problems with the fast load misses and compiler support

- I didn't understand the implications of a completely visible register file

- The trouble with "hard coding" three execution units. Very bad if you can't recompile your code and/or bytecde to a new binary when you get a new CPU.

Your last point about coding your way out of the ecosystem, I wonder if that might have been a reason for why Intel didn't go all-in to make Itanium the Java machine...
Boeing customers is not people, Boeing customers is airlines.
I had similar thoughts on this. It looks polynomial because he classified errors into certain groups and spread them across an axis which we implicitly think is a dimension. But it's not... as he says, "Along any one dimension we might have a combination of issues (i.e. multiple implementation bugs)". So looking at the grid and thinking you're at a single point is wrong... but so is thinking you could be any configuration of locations (you couldn't be at points (1, 1) and (2, 2), you also need to be at points (1, 2) and (2, 1), i.e. the set of points you're at is transitive). Thus this is a bad way to "enumerate the failure cases" and makes his notion of "adding a dimension" pretty unintuitive. It makes more sense to see every point of his dimensions as itself a dimension. Each of these dimensions could be either correct or incorrect, 1 or 0. So you're configuration could be visualized as a string of 1's and 0's. Thus, the number of possible configurations grows exponentially (2^n).
I dont know if you can say that about traditional OEMs BEV's which seem to be following the Telsa model of complete interconnectivty of all systems

> Why did my mother abandon the most innovative food technologies of her generation and return to laborious and expensive organic foods—raised according to the farming standards of the Middle Ages?

Because high tech requires keeping up. At some point your mother was sick of the rat race and took the path of least resistance into something she knew. The work may have been physical, but the barriers to entry were low.
There’s no ocr or ai involved here (other than the standard fallback).

What this library, and something like fitz/pymupdf, allow you to do is extract the text straight from the pdf, using rules about how to parse & structure it. (Most modern pdfs you can extract text without ocr).

- much cheaper obviously but doesn’t scale (across dynamic layouts) well so you likely are using this when you can configure around a standard structure. I have found rule-based text extraction to work fairly dynamically though for things like scientific pdfs.

I'm Dutch and my liberal and even anarchist background makes me angry about these trends.

But this is what Dutch people want. Increased and more heavy handed Police enforcement, less oversight, and broader duties is exactly what voters have voted for. Dutch elections have moved the political landscape to the far right. And in the Netherlands (and many EU countries), "far right" goes hand-in-hand with increased and heavier police presence (though often without increased funding). Edit: this has been an actual "promise" to voters by parties who were voted in place on a.o. this exact promise.

So I'm not suprised. And also think "this is exactly what we asked for".
If you use the same Node version and NPM dependencies it could work, but trying to get the project upgraded to use a modern version of Node and mitigate vulnerabilities was a nightmare and I just abandoned the effort.

I get emails from Github with long lists of vulnerabilities on old toy projects where literally __zero__ dependencies are listed in package.json. It’s not so much the vulnerabilities that bother me, but the dependency conflicts, and in general a massive amount of infrastructure I have to buy into without even knowing it.

In a way, China did already have a form of UBI in the past. When I visited China in 1993, almost everyone was part of a 'Unit' that provided all the basic needs, such as housing, heating, schooling, medical treatment, and such. Large units would have their own schools and restaurants. My then mother-in-law received about 200 Yuan as a pension (women retired around 55, if I remember correctly), and that was enough for buying food and clothing. All other things were provided for free by the unit. The luxury item at that time was a (land-line) telephone for which there was a waiting list at the unit. It was all rather basic, but sufficinient. Houses (mostly flats) were assigned by the management of the unit and there was quite a bit of social control. I was told that within the yard (about 200 houses) everyone knew you I was.

I guess, that officially everyone is still part of a unit, but that for many people this is just an adminstrative issue, and a lot of people have a job and/or properties outside the unit.

I'm totally with you insofar as ST isn't used much as a full IDE. But it's a great as a background text editor and I'd be surprised if not many people use it for that.

I use it to keep a TODO list, analyse and manipulate log files, record temporary notes, and edit big JSON packets. Tasks like "extract all lines which include this phrase, and then delete the first 10 characters" are straightforward. Also it's minimal, clean and feels spacious out of the box.

VS Code probably has similar features, but has a much bigger memory footprint, takes longer to start up, and looks more cluttered. If you're already a dotnet shop with VS Pro/Enterprise subscriptions then it makes more sense to use ST.
Your claim was that "at least on macOS and iOS they never forced anyone to update to the new versions"

You must do BJJ, to be able to twist yourself into such knots to blame Microsoft for a 3rd party vendor's unsupported buggy hacks. No mention of how the 3rd party vendor lies by omission to the users by not telling them that their software is very literally using unsupported, buggy means to accomplish its goals. Leaving the user to blame Microsoft for the crash, when if the user knew the truth, they may feel differently, and maybe not even use the 3rd party software. But it feels better to blame the big bad corporation, despite the fact that they have not lied, and are just trying to fix security issues.
I'm not sure -honestly- if this is sarcasm or truly how you feel it is.
> According to the label, that block contains both the uop cache AND the microcode ROM

Yes, so it's hard to tell the exact size. We can only conclude that the uOP cache and the microcode ROM combined are about twice the size of the L1I cache (in terms of memory cells).

Another core die shot of the Zen 2 micro architecture is this (it appears to be correct as it is based on official AMD slides): https://forums.anandtech.com/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fa...

Here uCode is in a separate area, and if we assume that the SRAM blocks in the area marked "Decode" represent the uOP cache, then we have:

* The uOP cache has the same physical size as the L1I cache

* uOP cache size = 4K uOPs

* L1I cache size = 32 KiB ~= 8K x86 instructions

If all this holds true (it's a big "if"), the number of uOP instructions that the uOP cache can hold is only half of the number of x86 instructions that the L1I cache can hold, and the size of uOP entries are in fact close to 32KiB / 4K uOPs = 64 bits each (given how similar the SRAM cells for the two caches are on the die shot I assume that they have the same density).

Furthermore I assume that one x86 instruction translates to more than one uOP instruction on average (e.g. instructions involving memory operands are cracked, and instructions with large immediates occupy more than one uOP slot - even the ARMv8 Vulcan microarchitecture sees a ~15% increase in instructions when cracking ARM instructions into uOPs: https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/cavium/microarchitectures/vulca... ), which would mean that the silicon area efficiency of the uOP cache compared to a regular L1I cache is even less than 50%.

Edit:

> Nothing is free in CPU design, it's just a massive balancing act.

Yup, and a large part of the x86 balancing act is to keep the x86 ISA alive and profit from the massive x86 ecosystem. Therefore Intel and AMD are prepared to sacrifice certain aspects, like power efficiency (and presumably performance too), and blow lots of energy on the x86 translation front end. That is a balancing act that designers of CPU:s with more modern ISA:s don't even have to consider.
I give it 12 months until the Pharmaceutical industry starts using this in a significant way. Currently, most Pharma ads on TV look like stock footage of random people doing random things with text and voice-over. So AI-generated?
