> What is AMDs platform?

That is a very good question that apparently AMD has no good answer for. I have lost track of the amount of half baked implementations for GPGPU that AMD has attempted and then left to rot. Even if they told me they had the answer now, and they are going to put all their focus on that, I would not trust them to deliver on it. Their best bet is to create implementations for popular libraries like torch that actually stand a chance to work as a drop in replacement.

There’s all the down-ballot elections, and states like Texas have completely open primaries.

And states like Texas often have nearly one-party rule, so the primary pretty much is the election.

Because of the party that currently owns the non-urban parts of Texas, I usually vote in that primary, despite not voting for its candidates in the general elections.
Should be emphasized again that contrary to the article's claim, the clause in question has been in CUDA's EULA, even in the downloads (contrary to the updated statement in the article), since Jan 2022.
That was a walk down memory lane, thanks. A lot of names and places I'd thought I'd forgotten. In my teen years, what Gatto had been up to was a frequent point of conversation with a few of my friends.

I'd never compare myself with Gatto, we were in different leagues altogether, he was big time, I toured one year. The hard work that went into it, and the return on that time, makes a normal job look pretty great. Mad respect to the people that keep it up.
The boy is 17. At that age you’re not that overwhelmed with people distracting you for no real reason. (Apart from parents, but that’s not work-related usually.)

So you can basically be offline most of the time. I envy that bliss, it’s so difficult to do when you’re much older, with kids, pets, and the family.
Same here. I had this vague notion that CP/M was something that grownups would use to do SeriousBusiness, but I had no idea what kind of applications it could be used for. Booted it once or twice and didn't see anything interesting. My C128 usage was about 80% games 20% learning how to program, so if they had built in some kind of programming language to their CP/M ecosystem I would have probably gotten more into it.
I just want to point out how clean and pleasant to read this codebase is. I'm starting to learn JavaScript, coming from a background of systems programming, and I bookmarked this codebase just as a benchmark example of what good JS code looks like.
I've bought picture frames, kitchen organizers, a frying pan, tupperware, towels, blankets and tons of other stuff - all of it was terrible quality and cost far too much. It was actually fairly hard for me to snap out of the preconception I had of Target being full of quality products - it simply isn't true anymore.
As for your health products, those would be under my "purchase at manufacturer" category of stuff.
This is a company with one of the largest digital infrastructures in the world. An outage is understandable, inability to tell they're having an outage and inform users appropriately is not. Stop making excuses for people who are literally awash in resources.

That's been true basically since the invention of sound recordings and radio. If you look back, producers really focused on building the best single, optimizing for radio play.

While I personally mainly listen to full albums, unless it's explicitly a concept album or a classical suite I'm not sure it's possible to make a broad generalization that "it's how the music was intended to be heard".

Theses less of an ethical issue than what's argued.

I have been screwed by 2 different companies over "proper" reporting. They came back and said I didn't qualify for bug bounties.

Then they turned around and PATCHED said bugs that didn't qualify for stated bug bounties.

The issue isn't "who's the highest bidder" but instead "who will actually pay what they say".

And frankly, the whole of infosec is full of holier-thsn-thou's and corporate scamming. I'll sell to who will pay.

(NOTE: what I type only applies to closed source and corporate websites. FLOSS gets free and discrete reports. No 0days for FLOSS. I'm just done being screwed by corporate interests who claim to pay and then screw you over.)

Seeing such a large web property go down like this is fascinating.

It's like a power plant grid failure, except for attention instead of energy.

When meta is down, a hoard of internet users desperately seek somewhere else to place their attention... But the system is designed with the expectation that meta will take all that traffic... And boom! everything starts falling over. Wild.
> And the bigger your conclusion is (say, here is why/how Europe colonized the world) you'd better have a lot of evidence.

Sure, but I feel many academic historians have a bit of a double standard here. Did Foucault muster up mounds of evidence for his totalizing theories of power and social structure? Not really, he gestured at a few facts and then built an elaborate structure of theory on that very wobbly foundation. Yet he continues to be taken seriously in academia, whereas Diamond never has been.

I think that's partly because he was a "serious thinker" and Diamond is an "airport read," and also partly because theories like Focuault's are so flexible that it becomes a fun hammer you can apply to any nail ("social media is a panopticon!"), whereas Diamond's argument is specific to a particular historical arc, and partly because Foucault accords with the prejudices of the academy (there are hidden structures of power woven throughout society that oppress the weak) and Diamond doesn't (X determinism is bad, everything is "contingent.").

Fair enough, I wouldn't mind controls behind the screen for stuff you wouldn't need on daily basis. But I feel like we already had it with early screens and infotainment.

Functionality that might be needed when you drive (fogging up, change audio src, increase temp) should have physical interface.

So if you have auto AC it could go behind the screen.

But what I am afraid is that cars are sold with premium features as upgrades. So features that are fine behind screen would suck in cheaper models. And when looking at what BS automotive industry is pushing now (subscription services for physical features that are present), I am not hopeful this would be addressed.

I hate clicky keyboards, because there's usually a pretty quick on-screen result from hitting the button, and you might press keys tens of thousands of times in a day. Love me some tactile.

But in a car when you might interact with controls a couple dozen times per trip? Absolutely clicky.
I just turned on Swissjazz FM, as I've never heard of it, and man yeah, if this playlist on here is what you think of as what jazz is then I agree, I don't like it either! I'd have asked them to turn it off too. The songs on this playlist are what happens when you take a traditionally Black art form, ignore all of those roots, wash it through a university, and make something that is likely going to be consumed by a white audience.

There's so much going on in 'jazz' music, but for me personally I'm always listening to it (and all music, really) rhythmically first, and all the harmonic and melodic components, everything else, comes out of the rhythm. That tends to be the opposite approach of European classical music (which of course I like too).

I don't know what your taste in music is, but there's a ton of great music out there that falls under the label jazz. Since you're in the classical world, here's some recordings that might speak to you:

They do agree with climate change, these radical leftists are just very very very very anti-capitalistic, and because of that big companies are evil and mining lithium is evil and cars are evil, and Tesla is uniquely evil and anti-union, and individual motorized mobility should be forbidden. Trains and buses should be the solution for low emission future.

In fact it is more insane than the link reported. They claimed it as a „gift for international women day“ and the destruction of the Gigafactory would be a feminist win against „The Patriarchy“ (which is personified by capitalistic technofascist Daddy Elon.)

> I don't really trust Down Detector, which despite the claims is really People Winging on Twitter Detector.

I'm confused. Isn't listening for spikes in complaints about outages a great way to detect them? I know for a fact some service companies monitor social media channels for this purpose (among others). I'd be surprised if that wasn't more or less standard practice.

I've checked Down Detector for ISP outages in my area many times now. It's always confirmed them before my ISP did.

I get that methane has a strong greenhouse effect, and that climate models need to account for its concentration to make accurate predictions. But in terms of climate activism, isn't worrying about methane mostly a red herring?

My understanding is that it only stays in the atmosphere for 12 years or so. It doesn't accumulate over centuries the way CO2 does. This means even if we manage to permanently reduce the amount of methane in the atmosphere, it would only be a one-time effect equivalent to not emitting a certain amount of CO2 once. In the long run, the amount of net carbon added to or removed from the carbon cycle, for example from fossil reservoirs, is the only thing that really matters.

Technical people are more valuable than the code they produce. The good ones have domain expertise and can guide product development in a way that takes advantages of emerging tech, long before it becomes mainstream, and positions the company to capitalize on market movements sooner.

Business that don't have technical leaders in their senior leadership aren't tech companies. They will fall behind quickly because they are busy chasing what's hot yesterday vs what's going to be hot soon.

10 years ago, I worked for a F500 company that fired their research team who was working on generative AI (and made solid progress) because senior leadership was all about investing in blockchain. Remember blockchain? I'm willing to bet those same leaders are all about the "AI future" now that it's in the magazines. But the problem is they are competing with companies who saw the value of generative AI years ago, before it was mainstream. Lucky for them, the company has enough money to buy the startup competition for a few billion.

A lot of sites have features that say “log in with your X or Y account.” They connect to each other somehow. I never studied that protocol. I wonder if authentication failures across services could be tied to it.

For process of elimination, do all of these services do multi-platform logins? Or do some not connect to anyone else?

Ask HN: How are you watching your legally obtained 4k videos?
I'm trying to watch all the best picture nominees, and I've found that watching digital 4k at home is kind of a bad experience now.

On Chromecast 4k: First I gotta rent on my computer, can't really do it on the device. Then when I'm watching I notice occasional frame skipping. The device processor cannot keep up with 4k content, despite the name.

Windows computer: I buy a 4k movie off the microsoft store. I can't download it in 4k, only in 1080p. So I stream it in 4k and despite my gigabit connection, there is buffering. I need to pause the video to let it load. Otherwise it's very blurry.

Apple TV: I don't have the device, I read that it also skips frames? I can stream from my laptop, which at least works better than the microsoft store.

Amazon: no 4k playback in browser, I'm kinda assuming it's not going to play way better than the google play app on my chromecast.

I could probably dust off the Ps4 and try that again, but why is watching 4k video so annoying. It kinda seems like I need to either watch on a console, but even then I'm not really sure it'll let me download the video so I still fear buffering.

It's 2024 and I think I might actually just sign up for a 4k bluray rental service. Is there a better way?

I know about piracy, but I figured I should at least try and patronize the arts.
The same could be said of a lot of things. For example in hash maps, you might have a cliff in performance if your hash function is not good for your data distribution, but you'll still happily use the default ones until you're really sure that they're not the right tool for the job. I also feel like this depends a lot on your language philosophy, some languages generally accept the cliffs, some try to expose enough of an API for you to work around the cliff if you feel like you know what you're doing, like custom allocators etc.

I have some personal hunches about how to have better guarantees about these properties but I feel like it's ok for this to not be solved with the v1.

> only three shelves tall

The trend in modern libraries is for shorter shelves to improve accessibility. Not everyone is 2m tall or can climb steps and ladders.

And it must be acknowledged that physical books are less important than access to knowledge, facilities for study, and librarians to assist. All of those can exist in a comfortable, quiet space with a fast internet connection, a few printers, and lots of invisible but still valuable electronic databases freely available: ProQuest, JSTOR, PubMed, ERIC, etc.

Yes, it's comfy and familiar to those of use who grew up before the internet to wander among the dim stacks of dusty books and take in the aromas, but the real value of a library is the information in whatever form it takes.

It looks compelling for high-end PC gaming VR enthusiasts, but if GP is more of a mainstream consumer it probably won't make sense for them.

At least from what I've read, there's a bunch of downsides for regular consumers: very expensive ($1000) -- SUPER expensive if you bundle in controllers and tracking points (~$1600), needs external tracking, wired instead of wireless, no built-in audio, can effectively only be used by one person (because each one is built custom to your face), and of course it's not a standalone headset, it has to be hooked up to a gaming PC.

Inference speed: more sophisticated stacks use multiple stages. Early stage might be a sublinear vector search, and the heavy hitting neural nets only rerank the remainder. Bytedance has a paper on their fairly fancy sublinear approach.

Retraining - online training solves this for the most part.

I use HDR all the time in Windows. Most newer AAA games support it, all my 4k movies, and being able to make true HDR photos and video is nice.

You won't notice a difference most of the time in normal desktop use because most desktop apps and the web are all SRGB, and get tone mapped accordingly when HDR is enabled. To really notice a difference with HDR content though, you need a good HDR monitor and not just one with basic DisplayHDR 400 certification, and either an OLED panel or mini LED full array local dimming.

Windows' HDR implementation is far from perfect (the gamma tracking on SRGB content is incorrect, for example), but it's a far cry from Linux where HDR support just doesn't even exist. I can't even realistically use Linux as an OS for a home theater PC anymore.

macOS is probably the gold standard when it comes to polished HDR support, especially with mixed mode use (HDR and SDR content on screen at the same time)
I've thought about that kind of system before, and it's an interesting approach but it doesn't fully protect against bad actors. E.g. what if the founder raises $5m, puts it into a bank account, moves to Hawaii, and then sells it for $4.9m in 5 years?
