If the H100 is $40k worst case, that's one-time cost of $356M! I could definitely see the FAANGs throwing money at this.

Is there any car software that’s “open”?
That number seems impossible on its face. Healthcare spending presumably consists of salaries and overhead, and I can’t imagine overhead is 92% of all spending.
Java the language was memory safe. The runtime and libraries weren’t all memory safe. The JIT’s can break memory safety. Applets had integration issues. So, what hurt Java were opportunities to go around memory safety instead of attacking that memory-safe code.

Memory-safe, system languages (eg Ada, Rust) address this by having as much as possible in memory safety with either little or zero runtime. Rust makes things safe that weren’t before. It has unsafe which is less used than some other languages. The type checker can also catch many logic-level errors. The safety situation is better with Rust than Java code.

That doesn’t mean it will solve NVIDIA users’ problems, though. They are usually worried about compatibility, performance, and reliability. Rust mostly helps in one area. We’ll see about the rest, especially compatibility, as you said.

It's the doom scrolling. When I deleted my twitter account I found life was much better, more relaxing, more positive, more empowering. Before deleting I was worried that I would lose touch with people I followed and not know what was going on but to be honest I didn't miss 99% if it. In fact why was I following it in the first place? Why was I concerned about these things.

Re 1,thanks for clarification. I wasn't sure if you thought it was a point contrary I. E. "something, something, greedy"

Re 2, it's worth noting that the majority of Chips does come in the form of tax breaks and loans
Turkish Government has had many high-ranking Kurdish officials, including multiple presidents and prime ministers.

There have been more Kurds served in the Turkish Army than all the other armed organizations combined.

Majority of Kurds in Turkey openly support the Turkish Government, especially against the PKK terror.

Several Kurdish organizations in Iraq, Syria, and Iran support the Turkish Government, especially against the PKK terror.

PKK kills Kurds. PKK kills Turks. PKK will happily kill you if doing so benefits the crime and propaganda business they have been profiting for decades.

Let's not parrot some politically charged material as facts without having any actual understanding about such sensitive matter.
Good reasons that will raise costs for everyone and lead to measurable impacts on the pace of quality of life improvements. A world that moves towards near-shoring out of security concerns is a world that is long-term poorer. That's real medical innovations, improvements in tech, education, climate that will be delayed because of our new cold war. We are already seeing climate impact in the EV car market where we are hamstringing our own policy efforts.

Globalization does not necessitate middle east involvement.

> - The US is tired of China stealing its tech, being protectionist, becoming an adversary, not being friendly to US companies, meddling in US trade, etc.

WTO already has the mechanisms to deal with this, the CHIPS act is hurting out standing with our allies because of its blatantly protectionist provisions.

> - The US is tired of NATO not stepping up to the plate. It won't back out, of course, but would love for Europe to care more about its own security.

Again, not contra globalization.
Cybernetics/transhumanism (merging tech tooling and human biology) are how I envision us going to the stars. I hope consciousness is transferrable.
Ebay was up 163% on the morning it went public and then continued to rocket for weeks after.

Broadcast.com was even better, up 250% during its first day on the stock exchange.
I tried pointing this out in an ev thread and got downvoted. The expense of driving is really maintaining the roads. Sounds like you’ve actually looked at the price components of gas and understand why they’re so outrageous.

My personal prediction is all those carbon taxes on gas transfer over to evs and get renamed to something else.
ICEs have software too, including multiple units to manage the various ICE systems that an EV doesn’t need.

yes, it is DNA tracing, for example (and note - "increasing terrestrialization"):

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8308604/

"Paleogenetic reconstruction of alcohol dehydrogenase genes across the hominid phylogeny indicates a dramatically enhanced catabolic capacity in one particular ADH (ADH4, as encoded by the ADH7 allele), starting at about 10 Mya [26]. ADH4, although only one of multiple ADH forms present in mammals, is found primarily in the mouth and digestive tract and thus effects the “first pass” at the digestion of ethanol. This enzyme became dramatically better at metabolizing ethanol following the phyletic split between the lineage leading to modern orangutans and to the other great apes, including ourselves. It thus correlates well with increasing terrestrialization among the African apes, possibly yielding greater access to fermenting fruit crops on the ground, and thus resulting in increased ethanol within the diet [26]. "
Incredible!

So much that is fascinating about non-human animals. I can't resist but think that there's a deep similarity between us, and them. One that we even don't suspect. Reminds me of Tom Regan's words:

"Animals have a past, a story, a biography. They have histories. Mink and bears, elephants and dolphins, pigs and chickens, cats and dogs: each is a unique somebody, not a disposable something."
>> A good first step to the chicken and egg problem. Living in Wisconsin I have never seen an electrical charging station.

There are approximately 35 active Tesla Supercharger stations with almost 300 individual chargers in Wisconsin. (More than I would have guessed...)
Very few people with a mortgage are upside down. But yes, if you're upside-down that is of course the worst situation. But they are so few as to be marginal.
Someone will grab the low end, currently served by cheap ICE cars and the second hand market. Premium and prestige brands will of course continue to charge premium and prestige prices, because that is their market.
Thanks very much! I will watch that as soon as possible.

Both, it is an inherent drawback of using chiplets.
Obviously foolish. One of the downsides to this format is that you're exposed to opinions nobody would bother to maintain face to face.
Yes, we live in different worlds. To be more specific, you live in a fantasy world. The circumstances you describe are so rare as to be irrelevant to any macroeconomic analysis.

It is possible to make a fortune through leveraged real estate investments on multiple properties. But doing that with just a single primary residence is virtually impossible regardless of tax effects or financial engineering.
You skipped the complex heat pump system needed to regulate battery pack temperatures (and used for cabin temps as well).

BMW i4,i5,i7,iX built in mid to late 2023 use an outsourced system that widely failed in cold temps. Tesla has a famously ingenious simpler but efficient custom in house design.
NVIDIA started publishing more of their driver as open-source in 2022, which while not hardware documentation probably helps a lot.

You may be wondering why Red Hat is bothering with this effort then? I assume it’s so that the code can be added to Linux directly as opposed to being out of tree.

> The world is moving away from imperative programming altogether, towards functional programming.

I think this opinion is a bit too coarse to describe current trends.

Certainly, current best practices recommend things like std::ranges, Streams, or LINQ instead of old-school for-i (or even for-each) loops, with good reason: the pipeline and map-reduce paradigms are very useful to simplify and shorten code especially when the same operation is applied throughout a data structure. This sort of operation also tends to be embarrassingly parallel, easily lending itself to performance boosts with SIMD and vectorisation.

However, pure, stateless functional programming is useful only in limited contexts, and implementations tend to rely on either a GC runtime, or resorting to copying and overwriting data structures to maintain correctness and safety at the (sometimes very large) expense of performance and efficiency.

Purely stateless and functional programming is extremely hard to use in overwhelmingly stateful (read: video games) applications without things slowing down to unusable levels. Update an ECS tag? Write the entire state (which can be megabytes large) all over again—no in-place updates, after all.

I feel most (non-functional) programming languages are adopting FP paradigms, but will maintain their imperative core by replacing old, leaky, and error-prone abstractions with data-flow paradigms (like the for-i -> map-reduce I mentioned above).
I love this. Many a moon ago, I worked on a system called Aikido at MIT, which combined a special built hypervisor with a binary rewriting system (DynamoRio) to enable efficient time travel debugging and race detection of parallel applications.

If anyone's interested, here's a publication that talks about it in more detail:

https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/72082

The use of performance counters here also reminds me of another project I worked on called Kendo, which was a posix thread like replacement that used performance counters to enforce a deterministic interleaving of synchronization operations (mutexes, etc). The system could guarantee determinism for programs that didn't have race conditions. Back then, I found that counting instructions wasn't deterministic on the processors of the time, but counting store operations was. If anyone's interested in that work, here's the publication:

Don't forget the very real sidebar into the hundred billion per annum iron ore industry that's driving the use of ammonia as a fuel replacement for truck fleets, power generation and shipping transport.

It's not so much an implicit expectation as a explicit forward plan by the same parties who are buying up cattle stations next to the mines they own | operate to generate power and ammonia for their own ends.
Thanks! I guess my question was more about typical query performance moreso than isolated benchmarks focused slowly on sorting.

Then again, I've been working with databases long enough to know that there's really no such thing as a "typical query" so now that I think about it, my question was a bit pointless or at least unanswerable.
Good uses of `goto` generally fall into the following categories:

* C-specific compiler-independent cleanup. This is completely unnecessary if your language supports proper destructors. Unfortunately many still-used and newly-invented languages are completely insufficient here. GNU C has `__attribute__((cleanup))` but it's kind of clunky.

* `continue` or `break` for an outer loop. One of the few things Java did correctly was supporting this directly, with names. A few languages support break/continue by number which is error-prone (fortunately they don't make the same mistake C did in adding `break`-skew for `switch, though unfortunately that usually means they also give up on efficient multi-way dispatch)

* nontrivial variants of `fallthrough` for a `switch`. This is generally an indicator that you should refactor out an `inline` function, but sometimes that makes the code significantly uglier since most languages don't support local-promoted-dynamic variables.

* computed `goto` in interpreter loops, state machines, etc. There is no viable replacement for this, though if your compiler is capable of inlining through an array of function pointers that helps (last I checked, GCC and Clang both failed very badly).

* coroutine implementations. Efficient coroutines have to be built-in to the language anyway (so they can optimize the existence of locals), but languages that support coroutines tend to abandon sanity all ye that enter here.

This is common sense and has nothing to do with nativism or jingoism. The offshoring was an action of pure selfish greed at the expense of the working class people who built the industry.
As usual, if the headline ends in a question mark, the answer is “no.”

From a broken leg? Doubtful.
It is atomic, but at least for me it left both types of checks that BTRFS can do with unrecoverable errors for a few blocks.

All in all not too terrible and I just accepted the bogus data as good by resetting (?) the checksums for those blocks. But acting as if it’s just a terminal command and Bob’s your uncle.. that’s just wrong.
A wealthy society is not one where poor people own cars, it's one where they can afford to not to.
Why would this be remembered as a breakthrough? Playing games with a BCI is many years old at this point. Here is an article from 2020 talking about playing Sonic the Hedgehog, amongst other games [1]. Here he is fist bumping President Obama in 2016 with a brain controlled robot arm.

I forgot to mention that because of the crash I was underwater on the house and couldn’t afford to sell it even though I wanted to.

It was also something silly like the article, where if I made like $5k less annually I would have qualified for much more than that. I was struggling at the time and really could have used it.
American, not well connected, graduated right after the housing market crash, so I suppose it could be the last one.

I don’t quite believe it myself (with people proffering 500 applications just to get one position) but I had a similar experience with online dating where my success rate was probably about 50% getting a positive response (and everyone seemed to bemoan their inability to get anyone to even talk to them).

Maybe this is just luck but I’ve also never been trying to work for google/microsoft/amazon.

I don’t consider myself particularly bright so I’m definitely not Carmack, and I’ve never seen the fabled 300-500k engineering positions, so my salary has been pretty modest for the duration of my career (always been comfortable but, well-maintained Honda civic money not Mercedes money). I just kind of try to make myself useful wherever I go.

When I apply for a job it has either been because a recruiter or former coworker asked me to, or because I was interested in what the company was working on, or both. I don’t go for jobs where I’m expected to performatively solve leetcode problems.

I get nervous around new people but I can get through a technical interview by knowing my stuff. I’m not particularly charismatic or anything.

Maybe I’m just lucky with target selection? I’ve always been about quality over quantity. I’m reasonably good at writing but nothing special.

It could be a sample size issue, my number of applications is not statistically significant compared to the overall market during the last 20 years or whatever.
Not surprising. There are internet forums dedicated to help young people commit suicide. Yes, these forums offer detailed guides on how to best kill yourself, a marketplace to exchange the necessary materials, and a section where undecided members receive social approval to commit suicide. I assume that's what they include as assisted suicide.
I am actually revisiting this and doing some mental math in my head.

You bought in 2013? Really? Seriously? Like, this isn't a tongue-in-cheek joke? The smugness of looking at your mortgage payment isn't enough? You just had to come here to project your "I deserve this more, timing and luck are nothing" bullshit here?

Wow, I do a decent job of detaching nowadays but I'd pay for the chance to tell you to your face, where to stick your analysis.

edit: wow, this exchange, and this thread in general is just so chefs kiss. Amazing, stunning, fabulous. If only I could be so god damn ignorant and self-assured, what I might achieve. (Or, you know, leveraging cash during an economic downturn, galaxy-brain there!).
Manufacturers continuing to use low cost imported parts instead of high cost US manufactured parts will cause prices to increase?
I was writing a parser for a reasonable subset of HTML5 (a full parser would actually need to include JavaScript parsing as well) and there are certain states where the same character must be reprocessed under a different parser state. [1]

I wrote my parser by iterating character by character (foreach) and when reaching those states that need reprocessing I found it nicer to jump to a goto label at the start of the foreach, after the state variable was updated.

If anyone is aware of a purely functional HTML5 compliant parser let me know, as I'd love to steal some ideas.

I’d be happy if we just start with long term orbitals. Build structures in space nearby (say L5) and try obtain self sufficiency. Then build more and move them farther out. Once you can survive in the Oort Cloud, interstellar travel becomes just a matter of time.

Any dreams of small ships and small populations colonizing planets are just dreams. Unless we develop magic replication technology that takes raw elements and builds compounds an atom at a time.
I’m willing to believe my experience is a statistical outlier and I’m definitely not looking forward to the next time I need to look for a job.
I'm really excited to see FreeCAD hit a stride. For me, a browser based cad program is a non-starter, cloud based in a close second. I want a strong tool for personal hacking, and the limitations imposed by commercial free tiers are frustrating, and I don't do advanced enough cad to pay an outrageous license fee.

I should really donate to Freecad.
This really and truly looks fantastic.
Yea the details were lacking but this is a cool project which took someone’s time and creativity. Whether or not it was an accomplishment for them or valve on a grand scale doesn’t matter, you folks don’t have to shit on it because it wasn’t mind blowing. I swear, nothing impresses hacker news commenters, Dropbox included.
I've been wondering for 25 years if there has ever been a legitimate use case for this abomination.
The Apple App Store (and Google Play Store) have a fairly large barrier to entry. To develop an app, you needed to actually code one. Learning objective C, Swift or Java isn't easy and therefore you had to have some skill to gain entry. With the GPT store, anyone that could type out some instructions could build a GPT and submit it. There was 0 barrier to entry and the flood of spam was a foregone conclusion. They should have either vetted the GPTs, invited select developers, or charged a large developer fee to be included to increase the quality and reduce the spam.
Can't believe no one has posted this yet (relevant XKCD):

kids over 30 unhappy as well. I moved back into my parents after a separation. Trying to save up to get my own place but every time I get some money something big comes up or a kid gets dental work or something like a car dies. Canada is not a place people can thrive. Those who got some money gifted to them do well. I am left waiting for my parents to die so I can afford a home on my inheritance. Sad
Okay thanks, I thought it was simply a simmering of the original works, but I don’t have the brains for this stuff anymore so I guess I missed that it was a new line of reasoning.
You don't have to tell me twice. I'm a red member. haha
That's because the U.S stops Chinese cars.

I'll give example on Brazil. Cars were ridiculous expensive lately.
Then BYD came in.

There were rumors of them launching Seagul (they call Dolphin Mini here) for R$ 100k.

Renault had Kwid E-tech for R$ 142k. They had to lower TO R$ 100k. They had to cut 30% out of nowhere because of Chinese competition.

GWM and Chery is also going well here as far I know.
Are you a parent? Do you know any parents? Do you know any drug addicted parents? Do you know any parents with smartphones? The analogy you made is just terrible hyperbole and counterproductive to any real conversation.
Lovely project, what did you find as the beat place to learn about cuda?
Bad DIMM is a thing, even more so on consumer HW that lack ECC. I recommend you run memtest
That's trivial in any language with destructors.
> Cars getting stolen non-stop; police literally advising to just leave keys at the front of the house so that it's easier to steal and criminals don't have to resort to violence

> A real estate market that's so stupid that there's no point in investing in other businesses

> Immigration at a level where we're adding the equivalent of our fifth most populous province (we have 13 - so no cherry picking) every year, while also having lots of social services.

> Immigration policies that make no sense. We went from having a strict system to people just gaming the system so that univerities and random industries can have access to cheap labor to keep the economy numbers looking good in the short term. Lots of people that use Canada as a stepping stone to the US or EU.

> Governments at all levels have absolutely no plans for any kind of infrastructure or fixing issues with housing. Local blames federal, federal blames local.

It's pointless to say since everyone does it; but for anyone on the fence, if you get a chance, just jump ship to the US for your co-op or something.
