Sadly it's not only designers but sometimes the whole product org who is biased… I lost on a potential design contract earlier this year because the company wanted a paid case study. 3 hours to improve their onboarding and customer activation.

I showed an outline of the direction I thought was best, highlighted the core concepts to watch for, and opened to further tests we could do to achieve the target KPI.

They told me my concepts were not “bold enough” and I wasn't defending it as hard as they'd like. It seems that to them, a designer should be confident enough to impose his vision after 3h of work on one of the most important flows of a B2B app.

No hard feeling against them, I was probably not a good fit. But it's not the first time people expect me to come in and “do the design thing” like it's dark magic.

Of course you need to provide proof of theft. I can't simply go to my insurance, file a claim for a high-value item, and expect them to not ask any more questions. This would be rife with fraud (read: not a reasonable business model) otherwise.

That would be more or less the same than in Spanish:

- "Farmacia" for the regulated drugs

- "Quincalla" is cheap hardware that you could find on a flea market or maybe a corner-shop. Old terms for places that would sell that kind of stuff would be "quincallería" or "chamarilería", but today you would probably go to a "bazar".

- And, as I anticipated, the "opens till late and has a bit of everything" store would be a "bazar", although sometimes is referred using the nationality or origin of the managers (usually from South Asia or China, at least on Spain)
> Lots of people are saying that Apple chips are good only because they have the node advantage. Let's see what they can do within the same power envelope now.

Depending on what you're doing, modern AMD chips are very close to M series chips under load (specifically efficiency). The biggest issue is idle power is still higher. My amd framework (7840u) takes between 5-10watts idle unless I use something like the xtu tuner.
Really curious to see the efficiency on the mobile CPUs from this gen.

Been looking to replace a Tiger Lake ultraportable which despite being a good laptop otherwise is terrible in terms of battery life and heat, but have been waiting to pull the trigger until an x86 laptop that can manage battery life numbers similar to that of a MacBook Air without also throttling the CPU to oblivion appears. Hopefully this gen of AMD mobile CPUs delivers.
64 bit doubles break down pretty quickly when zooming into the Mandelbrot: you can zoom in by 2x about 64 times. Doubles only get you twice the zoom level as 32 bit floats, meaning with fp32, you can zoom 2x about 32 times. I feel like using doubles makes zooming a little better but isn’t all that meaningful of an improvement over floats.

You can use arbitrary precision, and yes it will be an exercise in patience (both in coding and in waiting for Mandel to render), but there are some really crazy tricks for deep zooming into Mandel that don’t use arbitrary precision, tricks that I know of but don’t understand yet. I’ve seen hints on some of the Mandel deep-zoom videos on YouTube, and also on ShaderToy. BTW I wrote a 128 bit quad-float emulator for ShaderToy, and it seems that it’s somewhere around 100x slower than using floats. It was a very fun exercise.
Slang explanations:

"Peasouper" is the term given to a type of smog - now, thanks to clean air regs a thing of the past - which was so thick and heavy it was like trying to walk through pea soup.

"Flying rat" is a pigeon.

"Paved with" is an allusion to the idea that London's streets are "paved with gold" but in fact are paved with... well... I think the brown explains that.

"Cuppa" is meant to be the colour of tea, but that shade is too milky for me. I am a Northerner who ended up here by accident 12 years ago and decided to stay, though.

"Pint of Pride" refer to Fuller's Pride. Fuller's is a brewery in Chiswick that makes "Pride" to this day. It is a common site in many London pubs, and the only thing better than it in most pubs if you find it is Timothy Taylor Landlord. Do not drink Green King IPA - it's terrible. Pride is bit darker than that orange though, which is closer to Iron-Bru.

"Parakeet" is often a surprise. Short version: some pet parakeets escaped (or were let loose) decades ago. They bred. They're now everywhere. You'll see wild parakeets across London often. They kind of ruin the quiet serenity of the parks, but it's not their fault, and they are pretty against a grey London sky.

There’s a picture book of Greek myths my dad would read to me from when I was a kid. It toned down the gore and rape stuff (it was still there just implied so a kid won’t get it), and made for great listening as a kid before bed.

20 years later I’m in grad school and I meet some classicists. It seems basically every one of them had that book as a kid. Maybe I missed my calling
I wrote the GP comment. Thanks for your comment; it clarifies my thinking and expands my perspective.

Let's not conflate (and I failed to differentiate) Ancient Greece and 'Classical' Greece. The Odyssey and Iliad are older than Classical Greece, the term I'm using for the world of the philosophers, mathematicians, playwrights, etc. I understand that that the two works were core texts for the Classical Greeks, but my impression is that they were from prior 'civilization' (maybe not the perfect term), perhaps like Beowulf is to people in the modern anglo world.

The world of the Ancient Greeks is completely alien to ours, IMHO. Its culture, morality, behavior, customs, etc. are all so different that all we have in common with it as what any humans have in common. Read the Odyssey from a modern perspective - it's bizarre, inexplicable in modern context. For example, Odysseus is a complete failure as a person, a leader, a spouse - he only survives and accomplishes anything because Athena bails him out. The only way to understand it is to try to grasp the Ancient Greek context, where it does make sense. That makes it very interesting and valuable, but it's alien.

Still, I overstated my point in the GP. Alien or not, it is part of our culture, even if mostly indirectly - generations have read it, have been influenced by it, and what it influenced was passed down to us, and we pass it to the next generation. There's no question of that.

> We examined a play by Sophocles in high school literature. Civics class inevitably brings up Athenian democracy. Philosophy began with Thales. Music began with Pythagoras.

That's 'Classical' Greece.
I experienced all of this on a recent flight, much to my frustration. Once fully exasperated at having the podcasts id predownloaded not actually play, I turned to my audible app. This too spent the first minute of booting clearly trying to contact servers to call home with a locked up, unusable screen, despite me having a large local library for access.

App developers clearly rarely test their code in airplane mode these days, much to our annoyance!
Some newer Android phones seem to be bucking this trend with longer and longer support windows:

- Pixel 8 phones will get guaranteed Android version updates for at least 7 years until at least 2030. [1]

- Recent Samsung models seem to offer longer 5+ years of updates, too.

Also, perhaps the budget Android phones seem to have shorter support windows (like if you got a Pixel 8 in 2028 the 7+ years may seem more like 2)

And Apple devices tend to get longer support.

Are you factoring in all of the people you don't see? What about everyone who picks up groceries or has them delivered? 100% of those transactions use the "reusable" bags.

You even provide an example of how your reasoning fails:

> ...which can now hold more since it's sturdier ...

Just because something can hold more, doesn't mean it will. Someone who needs a disposable bag to hold 3 items they just bought now has to use the heavier duty bag.

People don't want to over-pack bags because certain items will be crushed or damaged. They tend to under pack or individually pack certain items. Those people are now using heavy duty reusable bags for a task that the old light weight bags would have sufficed.
> There is no information about the function's prototype in the object file, so the linker can't determine that.

That that information isn’t there is an implementation choice.

For example, they could have hacked it in like C++ did by mangling names (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_mangling). That probably would have required supporting longer identifiers (IIRC archives limited them to 14 characters), but that’s doable.

We are prioritising building out whole systems at the moment I don't think we'll have a consumer level offering in the near future.
That’s a shorthand for modern processes. Older process technology was made before 300mm wafers were standard, and retrofitting old processes to use larger wafers is generally considered to be not worth the cost since all the tooling is depreciated and paid for in 200mm or smaller wafers.

Anything made today from the ground up would use 300mm wafers, though. Even slightly older process nodes (55nm, for instance).

Groq Engineer here, I'm not seeing why being able to scale compute outside of a single card/node is somehow a problem. My preferred analogy is to a car factory: Yes, you could build a car with say only one or two drills, but a modern automated factory has hundreds of drills! With a single drill, you could probably build all sorts of cars, but a factory assembly line is only able to make specific cars in that configuration. Does that mean that factories are inefficient?

You also say that H200's work reasonably well, and that's reasonable (but debatable) for synchronous, human interaction use cases. Show me a 30b+ parameter model doing RAG as part of a conversation with voice responses in less than a second, running on Nvidia.

C++ 'sets' are ordered mutable binary search trees in most implementations.

Not the ties and hashtables of other languages.

With strict weak ordering, you really only have the ordering of to elements.

Ada took care of that polysemy between ordered and hash sets a long time ago.

But ya it took them to long to implement 'contains', but JavaScript requiring ordered sets while allowing multiple implementation details complicated it IMHO. Had they chosen a structure vs a time complexity it would have been easier to extend.

Because my commute is lengthy and grueling. Whatever time I had to cook for myself is consumed by the commute.

The US government is heavily propping up the strongest performer (NVIDIA), markets are reacting to this propping up action, and NVIDIA is reaping the benefits for being where they have always been.

The other companies are also expected to do well since they implement software on top of NVIDIA's hardware.

I think out of the list, only NVIDIA is overvalued given today's output and no indication of NVIDIA moving to US-only semiconductor production in my timeframe of ~5 years, but others could be looking at longer periods and justify it. Of course, I'm not an analyst whose opinion will drive buy/sell markers to anyone.

I would guess that the main cause of failures is autoconf, which has a habit of relying on extremely dubious C code to check for feature availability. On top of that, the compiler runs are done in a way to guarantee that no one will see any warnings, even errors can tend to be silently ignored (!), and a particular version is often baked into a source package, so upgrading autoconf to a more sane version tends to take eons.

It is not always done, but it is still correct, to replace the objects of a category with the identity morphisms. So in Top, it is totally correct to think of topological space as the identity homeomorphism, which is indeed continuous.
Doesn't $999.50 buy you at least some "why" behind the "knowing where to tap"? Some tips on diagnostics, some idea why tapping at that spot resolves the issue? Seems like pretty steep price to pay, if you are left without any recourse when the thing stops working. What do you do, call the engineer again, pay the $1000 again, never getting any wiser?

btw, is the price adjusted for inflation? $1000 seems were going rate 1977 - https://quoteinvestigator.com/2017/03/06/tap/
Not aware of those "lots of people", but all I can say it's the node advantage it's very real, at least it has been because TSMC hasn't really made any major mistakes in the last few years.

But real performance improvements post M1 didn't really match expectations. IMO the expectations Apple stated/implied in their usual marketing incantations are partly to blame, but they were the ones pumping the hype, so it's completely fair to charge them for that.

Compute performance improvements of ~30% are OK and in line with everybody else, meaning they are dealing with the same reality as other companies, hence the "let down"

A lot of boutique labels are just sub(-sub) labels ran under the big three. Including metal.

Often they’re ran by artists under contract with one of those three big labels and their big sublabels, mostly as a perk/favor to those artists. They have a bit more creative freedom and leeway who they sign, but the money is still kicked upward and the marketing and recording budget still comes from upstairs.

Wyze cameras can actually be used very securely, as long as you bother to jump through some hoops.

First of all, google "Wyze RTSP firmware". It's the official firmware from the vendor that enables the RTSP protocol. Now you can enable RTSP via the app and give the camera a fixed IP address in your DHCP server.

RTSP is a pretty standard protocol, so you can now view the feed via VNC player, record it 24/7 via ffmpeg, use tools like motion, etc.

The camera will still try to connect to cloud, but you can move it to a local-only Wi-Fi network, or outright block it from reaching the outer world on the router side.

And if you want advanced stuff (multiple streams, organized recording, etc), there is a plethora of free/open-source security camera tools (iSpy for instance). It all takes time to learn and configure, but you can have your own fully closed-circuit surveillance network, while still using the Wyze's rather cheap hardware.
Even *IF* Intel reaches parity with TSMC (which seems unlikely...), Intel doesn't have much experience with external customers (like Apple, Qualcomm, AMD, NVidia) like TSMC does.

Even if we magically wave a wand and give Intel next-generation lithography today, they still don't have the capabilities to take orders from customers and translate them to designs.

-----------

Its not Intel who needs to catch up to TSMC. Its a 3rd party fab like GloFo who needs to catch up for USA to recapture that market share.

I'm happy that GloFo is getting some scraps and investment from this CHIPS act, its the right move. But I have my doubts that we'll reach the technological level of TSMC / Taiwan any time soon. But whatever we get its still better than nothing.

Extended integer types aren't necessarily related to stdint.h - in the vast majority if not every one of those "half-decent compilers" the stdint.h types are just typedefs over plain old char/short/int/long/long long, which are not extended integer types. Extended integer types is a mechanism to allow having types other than those.
Come now, it wouldn’t be a normal HN conversation on octopuses if we didn’t debate whether to eat them or not.
The state of the art for arbitrary precision is in rapid flux right now. The naive approach is O(pixels * iterations * bits_precision^2) which is just hopeless. K. L. Martin[1] took it to O(iterations * bits_precision^2 + pixels * iterations) which was a massive improvement. I explain my webgl implementation of that algorithm here [2] and I think it's currently the fastest web implementation for depths up to 2000 bits. However, in 2022 Zhouran [3] dramatically improved the constant factor for the first term, then made a breakthrough in overall complexity, taking it to O(pixels * log(iterations) + iterations * bits_precision^2) which blows the approach I used out of the water for deep images. It's so recent that there's not really a blog post properly explaining it anywhere, you just have to sort through the forum thread., There is a webassembly implementation at https://fraktaler.mathr.co.uk/live/latest/ with public source.
