That theory doesn't really make sense. Nvidia didn't need AMD's permission to write a high-quality compute interface. Why would AMD need Nvidia's? AMD has their own internal opinions for how well they want compute to work; if OpenCL isn't doing it for them they should have figured that out quickly and then built their own layer as a stopgap. But we've seen what happens when they do that; ROCm. The problem is that they don't really know how and it is a glaring capability gap (didn't know I suppose - I expect they're learning fast).

If anything, the situation with OpenCL suggests AMD and friends were the ones dragging their feet. Nvidia correctly identified that being led by the OpenCL committee would lock them out of billions (trillions, if you believe the stock market) of profit and routed around the blockage rather than compromise their engineering standards.

Upgrades are a common problem for either hosting world. Can my software work in this new environment? Hence, CI.

Set the firmware to return to last power state. Also buy a couple UPS' and a PDU. Fixed. A host and networks between going away isn't so easy.

How is this unique for them to solve? Hosted workers/cloud servers have finite disks too.

Clean your workspaces in your pipelines. That's all disposing of the hosted one does.

You're looking at it very 1-dimensionally.

The war leaders certainly didn't literally distribute wealth to the conscripted people. Instead you had plundering, with the winners simply taking things and the dead were ... Well, outta the picture, consequently the survivors had the opportunity to become skilled craftsman and marry after their return, as most didn't survive (even if their side won).

Let's say a farmer family's children were all conscripted. 5 left and 2 returned. Before the war, 4 had few prospects.
After the war, both will have prospects, one to succeed the farm and the other one as the husband to another farm that didn't have anyone return.

So after all that talk of “hardware is nice and solid but they are just a thin layer over OpenAI and it takes too long to get a response” it turns out the hardware was crap and their services suck/are slow, cool…

That launch video was so weird, best example of “people smelling their own farts” I’ve ever seen. That coupled with a level of, as it turns out, completely unearned smugness and arrogance. I liked the overall pitch of the device then I watched their launch video and was completely turned off.

Even if this is not what Adobe are doing, the author of the tweet is not incorrect to make such an interpretation from the terms.

Now would be a good time for Adobe to do away with vague "catch all" language, because we now live in an era where user data is being swept up for AI model generation and governments are leaning heavily into tech companies for policing.

However to play the devil's advocate we can see how these terms have come about without rounding up to tweeter's interpretation.

Note: There is also good reasoning to believe this interpretation because using software that collects data indiscriminately would significantly impact the ability of Adobe's large customers to use their software. Since service agreements and various compliance standards forbid as such.

First up are Adobe's online terms that relate to CSAM, abiding by subpoenas, security, and feedback/bug support. Those are all pretty standard for hosted services. So while some may not like that, this is a "nothing to see here" clause.

However the "gotcha" for users comes about because a lot of Adobe's features rely on their cloud infrastructure which they may use unintentionally. This extends beyond using their cloud storage allowance or the Behance social network. Here are some examples:

- Generative AI: in & out painting will send image data to Adobe for matching.

- Farm rendering: Some apps, such as Dimension, feature off-site processing options. These of course mean that your content, textures, logos, etc are then on Adobe's servers for processing.

- Forms dissemination: Hosting forms means that Adobe will have not just your content, but also that of people that fill out the form.

- Review features: Review features are all performed through the cloud.

- Moving documents between devices: Using the app's built into tools to move a document/graphic between devices is performed via the cloud.

There are many more scenarios, but I've tried to choose a range to demonstrate variety, and how that extends beyond actions where the user is deliberately using online storage.

The next part of Adobe's terms is noting that they don't specifically call out online versus offline processing, rather they use the terms "Services" and "Products". This would appear to be explainable as Adobe's apps include algorithms that enforce certain types of document security, such as anti-counterfeiting measures, watermarking, Content Credentials and copyright embedding. The vague language of this clause is the source of the problem, as Adobe don't demarcate where and why the processing is performed.

So in summary the overly vague language can be chalked up to legal brevity, but in this era that is insufficient for peace of mind.

This unlocked such fond memories, I'll buy some just to make some LEDs blink. I am glad my first exposure to embedded systems was through ATmega series, not for the chip, but the user's manual. That is perhaps the only manual I have read cover to cover, that thing took me to knowing rudimentary electronics to actually understanding a full system. The first real world system I could hold fully in my head, and that was an amazing feeling. Who ever wrote that, hats off. I remember then encountering the ARM manual which had similar clarity of writing. Were there like professional writers for these things?

This has to be the core of it. If the underlying question is "was this alignment intentional" then you could start by asking whether there are extant maps with better cathedral alignment than Mercator.

These places are old. Skellig Michael goes back past 823AD, Mont-Saint-Michel is about the same sort of age, and the Sanctuary of Monte Sant'Angelo goes back to 490AD(ish). San Michele Arcangelo is on top of a pre-Christian pagan temple. Stella Maris is on an Old Testament Biblical site. None of them is less than a thousand years old.

The bar for finding a map that happens to align, and then explaining how it was made, is not a low one.

There is a projection that might fit, though: Plate Carrée is definitely old enough, and a brief visual sanity check doesn't make it look totally off.

It does mean you should use Hetzner from the beginning, because the Hetzner egress bandwidth costs will not eat you alive. But what's with cloud, anyway? Hetzner Cloud is for cheap VPSes. Get a real server at Hetzner and you also get way more compute and storage for the same price as any cloud, as long as the higher price floor doesn't bother you. (There are no $5/mo dedicated servers. Even Raspberry Pi hosting usually costs more than that.)

Ariane has always been conceived as a large carrier designed to do a small number of heavy launch to orbit several satellites in geostationary orbit.
Space X was initially designed to do a lot of small launches into low-Earth orbit.
These are two very different approaches.

In 2009 and 2010, when the main design choices for Ariane 6 were made, reusable engines were seen as too costly to develop, produce and maintain for a heavy launcher.
At that time, the scenario envisaged was to return only the first-stage engines via a glider in the same way as the Space Shuttle.

Ariane Space has only recently started work on a prototype reusable stage.

> we need to step back and look at what a healthy technological ecosystem would look like

...aaand as usual mr tech commentator was right up until this point. There doesn't need to be a balance. People are always talking about "balance". What balance? TV/radio didn't spy on you to operate a profitable business in the broadcast days. I can do anything on an Amiga computer with probably not bad UI compared to the latest versions of Windows, and it will never have to phone home for anything. This opinion itself, ironically, is just a shifting baseline. You are talking about "balance" (translation: compromises) because the 3 maintained pieces of software for your domain (such as camera in your house) are by two scum corporations and the 3rd is some garbage quality open source software. Nothing stops someone from making actual good software/hardware, closed or open.

Yes, but I suppose even if you have 7 that line up, they may not fall in your band.

To remove that constraint, so it's just any band, I think it should be more like: given a cathedral is in a particular place, how likely is it that six other cathedrals fall in a 50km wide band aross Europe.
From what I can tell, ArianeGroup was completely oblivious to SpaceX successes, and reacted (way) too late. Ariane 6 is the panic mode reaction to try to remain somewhat relevant and somewhat competitive. Europe needs a launcher anyway, so in fact I'm not convinced this Ariane 6 was really necessary: keeping Ariane 5 as-is (or maybe streamlining its production a bit to cut the fat) would probably have been enough.

ArianeGroup is going the reusable route eventually anyway. They don't have a choice: it's currently called Ariane Next [0] and is expected to enter into service in the 2030s. I'm not convinced the current concept will remain unchanged, since it doesn't exist yet and will probably evolve depending on Starship and other SpaceX projects success (not just technical, but also commercial).

In parallel to Ariane 6 (and as a precursor to Ariane Next?) there are a bunch of European companies developing small launchers to test new technologies: Avio, HyImpulse Technologies, Isar Aerospace, MaiaSpace [1] (owned by ArianeGroup), PLD Space, Rocket Factory Augsburg and Latitude. Probably others I didn't hear about.

Humans are diurnal. We foraged for fruit during the day and slept when the sun went down, so it's not very clear that being able to see infrared would help.

Plus evolution doesn't work by automatically adding the best body enhancements like a superhero. It might have happened that the genes for making red cones got duplicated (making one person a tetrachromat) and then that person had lots of children and those genes gradually evolved into infrared receptors and were successful, and the mutation was not too much of a burden in other ways. Or that's all very very unlikely and it simply didn't happen.

Unfortunately I am not aware of any source that would present a coherent, consistent and complete theory of the physical quantities. The theories of the vector spaces, real numbers, complex numbers, quaternions and tensors are byproducts of the complete theory of the physical quantities.

In 1873, Maxwell has written a rather complete theory of the physical quantities for that time, but his exposition is obviously obsolete now. Later authors of physics manuals have only very seldom taken care to present a logically consistent axiomatic description of the mathematical models assumed by their physics theories, while the authors of mathematics texts have preferred to present systems of axioms like they would have been the result of random choices, even if the real origin of most useful axioms has been in the work of creating mathematical models for the physical behavior.

All the required axioms and theorems are dispersed in various texts of mathematics and physics. I do not remember now a concrete list of titles, but some texts about the axioms of geometric algebras and about the axioms of affine spaces may contain useful information and the most important are some texts that explain which are the minimal sets of axioms that must be satisfied by a measurable physical quantity (i.e. the set of its values must have an algebraic structure of Archimedean group, which means that it must be possible to add and compare the values) and how the sets of axioms of more complex algebraic structures, like vector spaces a.k.a. linear spaces can be actually derived from the minimum set of axioms (for any Archimedean group you can define a division operation that yields a rational number, and through a process of passing to the limit you can define the "real" numbers [passing to the limit requires a completitude axiom for the Archimedean group], thus obtaining the field of scalars associated with the original Archimedean group, which will then have a structure of vector space over the field of scalars).

CRT image is an analog signal so it always has those little imperfections, especially as the screen ages and phosphor matrix gets burned, and there's dust settling so all dissipation curves change slightly, and each analog electronic component on the board had it's own tolerances that changed over time, and then EM noise from environment and power grid was also leaking - all of that slightly affected timing and precision of the beam. It's not just that it's super hard to digitally emulate that, but even back then no 2 CRTs were giving 100% the same image, especially after a few years of being in use.
