On the RP2040 this is solved by having a huge ground pad in the middle[1], as it has somewhat modest needs.

On modern CPUs there are tons of "redundant" ground pins sprinkled all over[2]. Just about every high-speed GPIO pin and power pin has it's own ground pin right next to it.

Keep in mind "high speed" mostly relates to having fast edges. You can have EMI issues with a "slow" 1MHz signal if the edges have rise/fall times are say a few ns, which modern microcontrollers can do.

Modern computing in a nutshell.
The recommended installation method should be to download the script, check the hash of the thing you downloaded against the hash of what you thought you were getting, and then run it. Obviously if you don't trust the author, you should do more research until you reach a conclusion.

If you ask me, you should do vetting proportional to the amount of time you have and the risk involved in a compromise of your system. That may practically mean that you won't install much of anything except via the most well popular software channels. Even then, you may opt to compile the stuff. If you don't have enough skills or time to do this vetting, you should err on the side of caution.
> With this set of optimizations, on iPhone 15 Pro we are able to reach time-to-first-token latency of about 0.6 millisecond per prompt token, and a generation rate of 30 tokens per second. Notably, this performance is attained before employing token speculation techniques, from which we see further enhancement on the token generation rate.

This seems impressive. Is it, really? I don’t know enough about the subject to judge.
Money is certainly part of it, the Israeli government tends to subsidize these sorts of initiatives. Costs would typically be lower vs. other options like Japan, Germany or the USA even without those subsidies.

Israel has a long history of semiconductor expertise. From Intel's first R&D office outside the US in 1974 to many others. Mellanox, Tower Semiconductors etc. There's a lot of know-how and expertise and Israel would typically be considered one of the top 10 (if not higher) countries in the world in this area.

If you produce the hardware you necessarily have access to the signing key to say update the microcode or the firmware. Intel is in the TCB for SGX, but your cloud operator wouldn’t be. In this case Apple is both the hardware manufacturer and the operator.

I want to second two other responses: first, the one about outsourcing to India. This was a very real threat, and practically no one wanted to get a CS degree for a while. But we learned that the hard part about writing software is not hacking out code, it's communicating with the people that are driving requirements. Being in the same culture and time zone turned out to be more important than being cheap. This part of the job is still hugely important and will continue to be until AI is good enough to read the minds of business people that can't properly communicate what they need.

The other is connection. I think long term this is all we have -- people will prefer people because they are people, even if that is not as good as AI. Artists won't get paid for putting paint on paper anymore, for the most part, they will make money because they are human and can build a human connection with their clients. Not everyone will like this -- artists who may be brilliant with a paintbrush but totally lack people skills will probably wash out. I think for the rest of us, things will go similarly but later. Build and reinforce your human relationships.

Finally, breathe a little. We have some time, probably. The world won't change overnight. Stay on your toes, keep your eyes open. There will be opportunities as well as risks.

Israel is tiny. Tel Aviv which is "much" farther has also been hit by rockets from Gaza. The longest range rockets I believe are 155 miles (Ayyash 250) which can reach any point in Israel (and fly over Israel into Lebanon). From Gaza to the northernmost tip of Israel is 135 miles. Israel is long and narrow, this is the "long" part.
transparently: Government surveillance in Amsterdam is not done secretly.

legally: The citizens of Amsterdam have not chosen to elect officials who would make surveillance illegal in the city.

Your example is not the same context we're discussing here because it's on private property.

But even if it were, the freedom from surveillance that you describe is impossible, unrealistic, and not even precedented. Even before motion photography, there were people like the Pinkertons stalking private citizens and surveilling them for nefarious actors and debt collectors.
you know whats funny is how we have become so efficient at producing food the government literally has to stop companies from producing it more efficiently or it would crash prices and cause economic disruptions.

and restaurants throw out millions of tons of edible food every night but if you try to eat it you get arrested for stealing. your true crime was upsetting supply/demand. if people realized they could get free food at like 9pm every night then demand would plummet, so would prices, the restaurants would all go out of business. artificial scarcity is the business model of a huge section of the economy.

but then there is also all this attempt by companies to make new chemicals to grow food more efficiently. and the government wont stop that. its ok if you are more efficient just not TOO much more efficient. if you made a chemical that could drop the price of corn by 99% ... the government would probably have to stop that in order to support prices.

its like we have this weird machine where we have 5 different brake pedals and 5 different accelerators and different people are constantly trying to push all 10 of them.

I’m both buyer of iPhone first gen and Vision Pro on day one.

Value prop was super clear on day one

I don’t use my Vision Pro at all.

That's not what I mean. If you look at many of the problems in the world now, they're geopolitical, caused by conflicts between countries. If you had a bunch of different countries trying to all colonize Venus or wherever all at the same time, it would inevitably lead to war. But if only a single country were doing it and no one else was involved, they would only be limited by their own technical or economic or manpower limitations.
What are you even approving at that point? “Surprise me”
the main trouble with the sspl is that it isn't an open-source license, which is a problem for people who only want true foss for practical reasons, not just ideological reasons. reselling is one of the rights that an open-source license protects, and historically speaking, everyone having that right has been absolutely critical to the development of things like linux, gcc, x-windows, ffmpeg, emacs, postgres, and wikipedia; without it, not only wouldn't we have objective-c support (contributed by next against their will) or linux distributions (like slackware, red hat, debian, and especially ubuntu), we also wouldn't have wikipedia quotes in google serps, or android

a secondary problem with it is that, as you point out, the sspl is so vague that you can never be sure that you're in compliance with it, and it's never been litigated, so there's no precedent

it sounds like you have a pretty weak grasp both of how the legal system works and of the history of free software licensing. actual bad-faith reading is literally the job description of a lawyer
Nothing ruins the fun faster than lag-switching lamers. Accordingly, one can never trust client side security enforcement, or you just create a tit-for-tat economy with cheat-code authors.

The better solution is often live admins with a cheat-report button, server-side physics reconciliation trip-wires/audits (no time-travelers), and using clipped areas for character buffering (x-ray vision attempts floods buffers and crashes the client.)

The only information an online game-engine should be pulling is the hashed GPU chip serial-number for account ban enforcement.

The worst part about cheats is they ruin the fun for themselves too, as a game becomes pointless and boring.

The LLM teaches itself the rules of the simulation by learning to predict what happens next so well.

Presumable, running a human simulation by brute forcing physics at a scale large enough to represent a human is completely infeasible, but we can maybe conceive how it would work. LLMs are an impressive engine for predicting “next” that is actually computationally feasible.
my experience is that you can often compute a conservative approximation to the signals you're looking for that's valid over a range of parameters, vastly decreasing the data you have to ship across the wire

Intel has had development centers in Israel for a long time; people with computer architecture backgrounds might remember that the Pentium M, which evolved into their Core line of CPUs, was designed at their Haifa facility. It saved Intel's bacon when their Pentium 4 architecture started running out of steam relative to their competitors.

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/corporate-responsibi...

They also had fabs in Israel already: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_manufacturing_si.... The paused one is Fab 38, which was to have been built alongside the existing Fab 28.

If the answer is that each outcome of such model should be double checked by a human while going through all that paperwork then what's the point of having that automation in the first place?

That is the underlying issue here. The liability for an erroneous AI output is the same as errors committed by any other agent of the company: the company is on the hook, though it may have recourse against any third party who trained or operates the model. For domains such as law, where the penalty for hallucinations are extremely severe, and, conversely, the penalty for missing things is likely to be losing litigation, this means treating AI like any other LPO: a duly qualified attorney takes responsibility for the work, which means a bunch of associates doing varying levels of review.

Is there still a place for AI in all this? Absolutely. But as long as hallucinations are a basic feature of the architecture, you’re going to spend as much human time on anything of critical importance as you otherwise would, and a lot of deterministic business rules to constrain the results of everything else.

Anyone who disagrees with you about this should buy a Mac and try not enabling iCloud. There's constant nags and as far as I could find, no way to turn them off.
For Google in particular, this was honestly something they could've done far earlier. They had the Pixel phones, they had the Tensor stuff, and then Gemini came along.

But for some reason, they decided to just stick to feature tidbits here and there and chose not to roll out quality-of-life UI features to make Gemini use easier on normal apps and not just select Google apps. And then it's also limited by various factors. They were obviously testing the waters and were just as cautious, but imho it was a damn shame. Even summarization and key points would've been nice if I could invoke it on any text field.

But yeah, this is truly the ecosystem benefit in full force here for Apple, and they're making good use of it.
They have a PR department, don’t give your time bro bono to spin it for them. With as many customers as they have, they’re in no danger of not being able to pay developers.
Wow this is so cool. I like these types of single binary things. Even Pocketbase is like that where you can just compile your whole app into one Go binary and just rsync that over to your server and run it.
totally agree, but there are some things we just cant do.

I bought Marauders to play with my son, and had maybe 4 months of excellent fun play with him. Then the dev's enabled EAC... now I cant play it anymore :-(

I cant blame the mods, they never wrote the game to work on linux it was just a happy happenstance that i could use proton to play it before the EAC transition.

Palmyra NJ is a distraction. It comes from a South Jersey creek in the same county as Palmyra. I think that water is cleaner than the Delaware itself. That water runs through a forest type boundary between, I believe, three forest types, so that specific mud may actually be fairly unique.

Israel claims the UNRWA is not counting aid trucks going into Gaza from Israel resulting in a significant undercount of aid provided to Palestinian civilians during the war.
