It states in the article that it is indeed a fiber fiber than the alpaca.
Low band gap is actually detrimental for transistors.
The more spare band gap, the higher temperature you can operate them at.
One could also disassemble an executable and build on top of it. Not for the faint of heart and probably illegal, but possible unless it was deliberately obfuscated. Compared to that, it is impossible with state-of-the-art methods to systematically extract the training data from an LLM model. Fragments yes, but not all of it.

You could theoretically put 1, 2, or 3 byte sequences into the space between 4294967296 and 4437053124. That gap holds over 27 bits of information.

Example: 0 to 4294967295 = 4 bytes

4294967296 to 4311744511 = 3 bytes (subtract 4294967296 first)

4311744512 to 4311810047 = 2 bytes (subtract 4311744512 first)

4311810048 to 4311810303 = 1 byte (subtract 4311810048 first)

Then you're still left with 125242821 remaining numbers, over 26 bits.

Sorry, I am a little confused, maybe I have learned wrong database theory.
SQL is not based on relational algebra? Then what algebra SQL is based on(there definitely exists one)? and where does the term "relational database" come from? or where does the relational algebra exist in database?

TheBloke dissapeared near the day https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-23496 was published.

Of course there has been much speculation on this, I have no more information than this that can be backed up by facts, but the timing was suspicious.
Yes, real problems stemming from factory-defective products or products that were driven out of spec. The article linked even admits they (author or publisher) don't have enough evidence to pinpoint what the problem is; the best they could do was the aforementioned. Nowhere do they say "Driving 1.4V is killing CPUs." or something similar; just potential workarounds like reducing clock multipliers below spec and configuring mobos to enforce Intel's power limits.

Drive known-good products according to published specifications at load for statistically significant durations. If the results are that the majority of products fail to perform as warranted, then we can talk about how Intel (and I guess AMD) are driving their products to the point of failure.

Otherwise in the absence of such data, I'm going to look at the silent majority satisfied with their purchases and infer that the products concerned are working fine.

I use olauncher which has a super minimalist home screen. It doesn't block apps but it doesn't use icons. Instead you type the name of the app you want which I find makes me more purposeful with my phone usage. Turning off notifications for virtually every app also helps. If it's truly important I'll check it. Otherwise it's something I can look at once a day/week/month depending on the app.
That’s how you lose trust, if it later is revealed that they didn’t.
They did not have to do much though, Microsoft killed Windows Phone all on their own. Windows Phone 7 was pretty great, but Microsoft threw all early-adopters under the bus by then releasing Windows Phone 8. None of the Windows Phone 7 devices got an upgrade to WP8 and WP8 apps would not run on WP7.

I knew a bunch of folks who were very sour after how Microsoft handled WP7 -> WP8 and moved to other platforms. And these were the people that were championing Windows Phone.

This comment suggests you don’t understand how taxes work in many scenarios. If I receive more ordinary income (whatever the source and reason it is treated as such) it is added to the year I received it. To minimize taxes, I will mot want to receive this additional ordinary income during the year I already would have already had the most income. That’s what being pushed into a different tax bracket means.

Example: year one 50k income 22% marginal tax. Year two 180k income 32% marginal tax. You have 100k more ordinary income. You will pay less tax if it occurs in year one.

Yes for this to matter you need to have some control over the order of payments. This is most commonly a 401k. Otherwise, it’s likely to be relevant through some form of business ownership. Perhaps you have a big contract coming in, or you are self employed, or you are receiving a bonus, or perhaps you own some shares where you could elect to sell when they only qualify as ordinary income as discussed by the original article.
Do you not think your experience, 'personal processing' is special? That while you can perhaps imagine other people having similar experiences, your own experience is unique and not just the inevitable output of your 'wetware' and its inputs to date? That you observe reality and yourself and choose parts to change on account of your feelings and intuitions?

I do think the materialistic idea that we are a sort of computer, with hardware (the body) and software (the mind) is a brilliant metaphor... but like any metaphor it is only so useful. Many people nowadays believe this metaphor to be literal. However, it is too mechanistic and does cannot account for subjective intangibles which is where all the value of life is, eg boredom, excitement, joy. Ie life is occurring in the experiences of the 'computer operator' in the metaphor.

Please try not to take perceived criticism of Intel as a personal attack, and please don't accuse others of being partisan without stopping to consider whether the bias you perceive is present in the comment itself or only in your reading of it.

Jeffbee's comment can be reasonably read as simply pointing out the futility of asking for all cores to be identical: the existence of minor but measurable variations between nominally identical cores is the unavoidable reality that undermines any attempt to insist on complete symmetry between cores on the same chip. This fact is not an attack on Intel; it applies just as much to chips made by AMD, and nobody tried to present this as a unique downside for Intel, and jeffbee doesn't seem to actually be asking for the idealized chip that can be optimally managed by the simplest schedulers.

I'm surprised no one here has mentioned rinseless washes like Optimum No Rinse (ONR) as an option for washing your car. You dilute it with water in a 1:256 solution in a bucket, and then you use a slightly-dripping microfiber towel or a rinseless-wash-specific sponge to clean your car. The rinseless wash itself acts as its own drying aid, so you can wipe your car dry with a microfiber drying towel afterwards without having to rinse off the car (hence the term rinseless).

I would say this is the cheapest, simplest, and (arguably) safest way to wash your car, especially if you buy the rinseless wash concentrate by the gallon. It's easy enough that it allows me to wash my car nearly every week. I only need about 3 gallons of water and 1.5 fluid ounces of ONR to fully wash one car.

Yeah and at 19, she got into the top math school in France where less than 30 students are admitted each year.

In the article she says she didn’t feel like she’d invent math herself until later though. And actually it happens a lot in France. People study maths, cause that’s what you do when you’re good in school. A good share of French “important people” studied fairly advanced maths.

I once thought about a plastic spoon. You need to dig up stuff from the ground use losts of chemistry knowledge to make it into plastic, have machines to bring it into this great form that is very thind and delicate hence stable. Then you need someone to bag lots of them up and put into boxes and ship halfway around the world to bring them into a shop so one can buy them.

And because this spoon costs next to nothing all this is considered less valuable then using a reusable spoon and wash it after usage.

If you think about it, this feels just crazy.
I have an fairly underpowered phone (Samsung Galaxy M01 Core). I got it mostly because it's the size that I like.

I also use most sites in browser as opposed to app.

It turns out a lot of these sites and services are a lot less addictive when they're slow and the animations are lagging out, and I don't get sucked in any more.

Also ends up increasing battery life due to lack of use.

I also have access to the main apps that I do need - whatsapp, gpay, maps etc.

Highly recommend.
Then get a low power processor. There’s no reason power consumption should really come up as a prime selling point in any discussion regarding home usage. Obviously when you do things at scale in a data center it makes sense to talk about.
> If the results are that the majority of products fail to perform as warranted, then we can talk about how Intel (and I guess AMD) are driving their products to the point of failure.

That's a stupidly high bar. Recalls and class-action lawsuits don't need to be justified by failure rates as high as 50%, and I'm merely discussing that there are signs of trouble, not demanding a recall or other serious action from Intel. Intel's recent top of the line desktop chips are misbehaving in a way that is genuinely noteworthy, even if we don't have the impact solidly quantified and don't have a smoking gun. It's worth discussing, and worth keeping an eye out for similar issues from other chips that are being pushed to similar extremes.

Ask HN: How to change jobs with almost no interviewing experience?
I'm in my first job out of school, and looking for a new ML job. I gathered a lot of offers that interest me.

The thing is, I've never gotten much interview experience. I got that job through a very weak selection process with basically no testing, the real test was an internship and then a trial period. I don't know what interviewers expect (I'm looking for machine learning jobs), or how to practice it. The first interviews I take, I'll probably bomb.

Is the best way just to start with positions I'm not that interested in and bomb them for practice, buy a book or two about ML interviews and go through exercises, or do more side projects?

I'd like to have an offer that I can accept in the next few months. I can take time off to practice if needed.

Of course, if this helps him then fine. I just don't like this black and white mode of thinking.

I hope he really spends his new "free time" effectively.

The study has been widely slammed by patients and researchers. It was badly run, far too small and finds nothing novel not already found in better bigger studies while trying to shoehorn more psychology nonsense at patients. It would have been useful in 2017 but we are in the COVID world now with extensive Long Covid ME research which has found more insights into the disease.

The big problem is the introduction of effort preferences and no real study of the key unique symptoms of Post exertion malaise. The study points to no underlying mechanism so gets us no closer it's just a collection of wrong things proving people are ill, but we have known that for decades.

I've always thought of 4K as "4x FullHD". In that way it makes sense.
I’m going to push back on this with a simple example. Go to your local hardware store and check out the electric space heater section. There will be a wide variety of units rated for small rooms, medium rooms, and large rooms, based on square footage. The heaters will have a variety of form factors and physical dimensions. Many of them will have mentions of “eco” and “efficiency”. Every single one of them, and I mean literally, will be a 1500W heater (or whatever your region’s equivalent maximum load per plug is which may vary in 240v countries). Exact same wattage, all 100% efficient because their only job is to produce heat, with wildly different dimensions and text on the box. Customers will swear up and down about the difference between these units.
If Don Knuth sent me a 14-page letter, you bet I'm gonna read it. I might frame it.
Why does it matter? It’s always plugged in and the cost difference is negligible.
The propaganda about work as being prestigious and important is one of the primary reasons fertility has collapsed in OECD and east Asia, such that the populations of China, Japan, Korea, and some European countries will roughly halve by 2100, and all these countries except possibly the USA and Canada will see a population decrease. (The child-bearing-age populations will decrease by more.)

15% discount is by no means the only common ESPP benefit. The company I work for doesn't offer any discount at all, the only benefit is buying at the minimum price over the purchase period.

Also, the value has to be compared to other uses of your money - with an ESPP you're essentially lending money to your company for some time, and to know if it's worth it for you you need to compare to other uses of that money. It's indeed hard to beat a minimum 15% discount (17% return on investment as someone else explained), but not impossible. And with ESPP plans that don't offer any guaranteed discount, if the stock is going down, you'll be better off even just depositing the money.

>Intel's recent top of the line desktop chips are misbehaving in a way that is genuinely noteworthy, even if we don't have the impact solidly quantified and don't have a smoking gun.

And all I am asking is for you to cite proper evidence for your claim. The article you linked does not say driving 1.4V is damaging the CPUs, it's actually explicit that the cause is unknown. Speaking more broadly, most people who have bought the CPUs concerned have had no problems (or at least do not voice such concerns).

To reiterate, I am asking you to cite evidence for your claim that "Intel and AMD are pushing 1.4V into chips built on processes that work best at and below 1V. And the result isn't a stable, long-lasting chip." If you can't or won't, this is just FUD.

It's hard to compare as the business model has changed, I believe that nowadays it's basically impossible for a library to get an individual subscription to a individual journal: subscriptions are bundled and (online) subscriptions are sold institution wide with contracts running in the millions. That's very different from what Kunth is describing, where individual libraries choosing what subscriptions they need (eg we need the JoA in our (physical) collection so we buy a subscription to that).
