> While the Intel 3 does build on the Intel 4 process, the enhancements are significant and results in a 15% improvement in front-end ring oscillator performance, a 20% reduction in overlap capacitance, a 25% reduction in contact line resistance, a 5× reduction in leakage at the same drive current, and an overall increase of up to 18% performance efficiency at the same power over Intel 4, which achieved a 20% increase in performance efficiency over Intel 7. Intel 3 can achieve these performance gains while also enabling 3D packaging, analog devices, and even higher performance products for AI and HPC.

> What Intel accomplished was a major process node transition from Intel 4 to Intel 3 in less than a year with the next two processes nodes, Intel 20A and Intel 18A, scheduled to enter production by the end of 2024.

This is quite hard for a layperson to follow, am I correct that the process sequence is:

Intel 7 -> Intel -> 4 -> Intel 3 -> Intel 20A -> Intel 18A -> ?

Is there logic to the naming?
There is a reason why it was renamed from "My Computer" to "This PC".
Book-dragon is a fantastic word. Thank you for that!
I do not deny that there's validity to your points. For me, it's the wrong interpretation. Again, I understand the points, but the way I gaze into the future reflects an ugly picture if we allow ourselves to go this direction. We're immersing ourselves in a service (no production) economy which could easily result in a nightmare situation where too many people are trying to survive by creating problems to solve and every individual's primary existential purpose is to be economically, perpetually gnawed at by fellow parasites. The entire concept of currency is problematic and I foresee such things severely exacerbating it.

I won't hold you back, but I will myself. And don't perceive my words as a challenge, insult or anything negative - it's just something that makes, perhaps, too much sense to me.
Does anybody else often visualie memories as they would watch them via a movie camera? I do. I can see myself walking in places with a cinematic camera movements and angles. Haven't heard much others having the same.
Sorry, I only have access to the preview.

I find it plausible, though, that compound bows might've been invented in the neolithic (assuming one already has the adhesive technology to haft spear points), but never became popular until the bronze-age development of horseback riding because until then having a smaller bow (that was both heavier and took over 5x as long to make) was little advantage for a lot of disadvantage.
Astalavista was the main warez search engine in the pre-google era and it was a play of words with altavista which was the most popular search engine at the time.

I've been out of the Windows loop for roughly as many years as the "skip every other Windows release" is holding: Windows 98 good, Windows Me bad, Windows XP good, Windows Vista bad, Windows 7 good, Windows 8 bad, Windows 10 good, Windows 11 bad ... has this meta rule changed? There seems wisdom or even intent behind it in that MS keeps correcting their overreaching changes every other release.

The one thing Windows gets right IMO is binary backward compatibilty, in particular with games, but also with older apps still from the pre-subscription era (3D modelling, Adobe sw, ...). Unfortunately, x86 seems kindof going under. Haven't tested extensively, but I wouldn't be surprised if a regular (non-pro) iPad can run old DOS games on RetroArch/dosbox longer on a charge than any outdated x86 hardware can. Right now, MS also again attempts to bring Windows onto ARM after their former attempt failed miserably with no exclusive software available that people actually wanted to use (cf Dells new ARM-based XPS and others). Is there instruction-level emulation with JIT on Windows ARM for x86/64 like Apple's Rosetta/Rosetta2?

I remember a time where I was playing "A mind forever voyaging" every day while listening to "Jazz impressions from New York" by Dave Brubeck on endless repeat. Good times. Both are excellent pieces of art and I can attest that they complement each other very well.
Can you clap your hands to the syllables of the Happy Birthday song without singing it? That's all an "internal monologue" is.

Very interesting, especially when compared to shogi (Japanese chess), where captured pieces can be dropped in anywhere on the board. So for shogi players this "ideal square" calculation can be even more natural and more flexible as well: besides the "getting existing pieces from A to B", the "drop on B" is a lot simpler. No wonder that piece exchanges (so there is something in the hand to drop) are basic feature of the gameplay.

(Source: being a fan of shogi but very very very early in my learning journey, so experts would likely describe this differently.)
If only 'Extra Virgin' mean anything. You can get good stuff, sure. But you can get corn oil in a can with the same label.
To be fair, MMOs after WoW were mostly bad as well. Such was the success of WoW (which, make no mistake, was a very good game), that it dried up the field completely: every "MMO" afterwards had to be a WoW clone with the same gameplay, same action bar, same progression, same end-game style, etc. There were exceptions and there was innovation of course, but I feel no game ever came close to making true justice to the possibilities of a shared, persistent, virtual world.

Those that came closer imo were UO and SWG: both before WoW :)
Its not primarily a pvp game, theres pvp stuff you can do but the overwhelming majority of the game doesn't have any pvp.

Bit odd to be claiming it (AI) is so bullet proof on privacy and then be concerned about EU regulators.

I bet that's 100% bullshit and the actual problem is EU DMAs interoperability requirement especially given the list of services: Phone Mirroring, SharePlay Screen Sharing, and Apple Intelligence
I can totally relate. In my case I feel deeply connected to Poincare writings about unconscious processing. It’s not that I have sudden eureka moments, but I observed that if I try to consciously search for an answer, I just won’t find it, like I need to soak on information and do something else to actually get the result after a while.
> People experience their thoughts very differently

what does this mean?
They're not meant to be understood by the layperson since they're not actual nm or angstrom numbers but just marketing numbers based on some internal feature sizes.
Most likely. You should be able to mirror you phone on a pc as well if the api was open which I guarantee it is not.
Ask HN: Is data privacy just all talk or does it affect your decisions?
They're trying to market themselves as a closer number to the node width, they were annoyed that 14nm by Intels metrics was marketed as 10nm by TSMC.

Which I think is ironic as AMD has been more accurately reporting TDP (Intels measurement of that metric is their expected average, where AMDs is actually peak).

I think they're scared about what happens when we get passed nanometers, even though they're not claiming nanometers it's clear thats what they're trying to evoke, and they're assuming they can go smaller, so that's where the "A"s (meant to closely resemble "Angstrom" without actually saying it) come from.
> My experience with Swift is we tried to make a really fancy bi-directional Hindley-Milner type checker and it’s really great because you can have very beautiful minimal syntax but the problem is that A) compile times are really bad (particularly if you have complicated expressions) and B) the error messages are awful because now you have a global constraint system and when something goes wrong you have to infer what happened and the user can’t know that something over there made it so something over here can’t type check. In my experience it sounds great but it doesn’t work super well.

I feel like B) is very well known in the programming language community. I certainly heard people talking about in at least ~20 years ago. A) should be obvious in the presence of overloading. I guess the type inference algorithm becomes part of the assumed semantics of the language and it's difficult to change after the fact.
Want to understand this as well.

I was looking at using Rust for some static analysis of JavaScript files recently. My impression is that despite there being multiple parsers written in Rust -- the ones in swc, rslint and maybe others -- they are not as production ready as something like acorn, in terms of passing test262, features, documentation, and simply the amount of example code out there. There are bugs like https://github.com/swc-project/swc/issues/2038 that haven't been fixed after a few years. (I am aware that swc is "production-ready" in the sense that it is already used by Next.js, but that's not a high bar if you look at all the fallbacks and limitations)

These projects also seem to be very broad but don't have enough developers to support them. They are aiming to provide an "all-in-one" solution with the parser, transpiler, bundler etc all in one place. Which means they have perhaps too much work to do. While in the current JavaScript ecosystem, there are many projects for each part of the toolchain, the unexpected upside is that there are many people working on one thing to make it really good. Just look at webpack. It's not the best thing out there, but the sheer amount of features and the support for almost every use case is amazing. For parsers, acorn is very good, because the author can focus on the parser instead of also working on the bundler.

As an end user, I would much rather see effort concentrated to make the toolchain really good to make it more production ready, rather than seeing another tool popping up.
Languages have more characteristics than what can be reasonably included in a headline.

"Fast to run, but slow to compile and needs very new compiler, and may have a big-ish executable, but OTOH it won't cause much problems with installation of dependencies - vite compatible build tool"
The basics I'd say are still pretty much configurable via GUI so a newcomer wouldn't have hard times with either KDE, Gnome or Xfce. For majority it probably would be enough if GPU, sound and network drivers are working and it's possible to easily install apps they used to use on Windows or OSX/

Back around 2003 I read in local "Linux Magazine" about some project that tried bringing kind of a registry equivalent to Linux world. Sadly these were Internet caffee times so it was hard to track projects, so I really don't know what happen to it. The closest thing that resembles that idea is dconf.

With Windows nowadays you do all this tweaking or juggling within registry/group policy editor to protect yourself (and of course you do that if you care - majority of people don't) while with Linux I'd say it's more a matter of fine-tuning your distro of choice to your needs.
Fundamentally LoT is a hypothesis about human (and possibly animal) cognition, not a hypothesis about what artificial neural network models can or can't do. But you can see Fodor and Pylyshyn's thoughts on 'connectionist' models (as they were known at the time) in this extensive article from 1988: https://ruccs.rutgers.edu/images/personal-zenon-pylyshyn/pro... The discussion on p. 14 is particularly relevant.
Or "is language just a thin common interface covering a variety of internal implementations?"

How could you possibly know how you really looked like walking in those said places? You haven’t seen yourself walking there. Also, you haven’t seen all of the possible angles that this cinematic camera would capture and replay.

This is an interesting concept about memories, part of them is just made up by our brains.

Edit: So the next time you have an argument about a thing that happened or how it happened, ask yourself, do you really remember or is your brain filling the gaps?
Qualia's a mysterious enough thing that I've settled on "sure, why not".

The fact that we experience things in a universe where there's no apparent need for any of it is just so weird compared to everything else that it renders most philosophical questions impossible to answer with much certainty.
I'm not so much talking about "reasoning using language", I mean that if you have intermediate reasoning results, you can mentally express them in language, which means you can still remember them after you have focused on something else for a minute. Otherwise you might forget them very quickly. Because we apparently can't hold a lot of thoughts in mind, while we can easily store words in memory.
One reason * may * be that most users didn't want it. It was kind of foisted. I was bitter about it for years until I lost my enthusiasm for Linux. Now, I exclusively use Debian (testing) but, to put it abstractly, it seems without a soul.

And I too find it generally works well. I still would prefer it went away though.

Social media by its design, has changed an entire generation's perception of reality with its ever-increasing unrealistic standards, incentivizing people not to showcase their growth, but only the absolute successful outcomes.

It’s making people think they’re in a spotlight, and their every move needs to be perfect, picking a new skill or working towards a new career path means we are not going to be as good in the beginning, it’s become very discouraging to be mediocre, but that’s the thing, everyone that has become great has to have been mediocre at one point before they were great, and this causes people to tell themselves they are never going to be as good as someone they see as great on their screens.

It feels like an entire generation has been robbed of their space to grow and make mistakes, causing people to think that skills and abilities come innately for many. So they forget greatness as a quality that comes with repetition & continuous improvement because no one shares their growth in public.

Folksable is an honest attempt at reminding and inspiring people of greatness as a quality instead of an absolute outcome.

Watch this clip from Ed Sheeran an early recording of himself when he was younger trying to sing, even the greatest artists we know need their space to grow into their artistic abilities and tastes with practice.

Imitation comes before creativity, and most creatives would agree. On Folksable, there's a good chance that a friend of yours has a keen interest in playing guitar and has a ritual of it on the app and shares their progress, this may be surprising for you to learn about them because they'd probably not show that on other social apps and only share once they feel they're good at it.

I put a great deal of thought into building the product to avoid the negatives of social media that our generation has been through

Productivity for the young.

Many of the traditional productivity apps like calendar or planner apps aren’t speaking to the younger generation (Genz), as many of them don't know how to use a digital calendar, or what a bcc or cc in an email is, A full-fledged project management app would be overkill for most everyday activities.

Every generation can either live with the tools and the ways of doing things that previous generations had built and pioneered or could reinvent for themselves.

That's why, I'm building folksable to help our generation get stuff done in our style as we grew up in social apps sharing pictures with friends.

As much as criticism the younger generation gets for the "Goldfish Attention Spans" and being a "Snowflake", we are also a generation that wants to be healthier than before, we are more aware of the negatives of excessive technology use, and more self-aware about mental health, in one sentence we made it cool to be healthy again.
Er... I mean, what were they supposed to do?! They couldn't just shoot it down and let it crash in an inhabited area, then they could have just as well done nothing and let it crash when it eventually ran out of fuel (less risk of fire). So they had to wait until it was in an area where it could crash without causing too much damage (over the sea) and shoot it down there.

Aphantasia: I can not picture things in my mind
I mean, it's a classic tactic used by many companies like supermarkets to increase prices, for example. For supermarkets it goes like this: increase price (e.g. 1.75 to 2.00 per unit) and simultaneously put the product on offer (e.g. 3 for 5.00). Then remove offer, leaving the price increased to 2.00 per unit. It basically softens the blow by tricking the consumer into thinking every step is at worst neutral.

It's the same tactics with Windows: introduce shockingly bad new version, but continue support of old version (seems neutral because "I'm never upgrading"). Force new users to new version. Release new "good" version with all the compromises of previous version (seems positive).

I've never had a French class or any language courses in English so I just don't know; do foreign language classes in general not start with phonetics? Vowels, consonants, syllables, then words. From there is a long road ahead but that should lets you(at least seemed to let my small brain) break down pure stream of audio in TVs and media content into spaced syllables that occasionally forms into words.

The unrealistic squares issue could be resolved by using legal moves for the piece. You could then evaluate the best for 1 move, 2 moves, up to e.g. 4 moves. You could also eliminate moves that visit a square already reached by a previous square to avoid duplicates.

It may be interesting to apply weights to reduce the score of squares many moves away. This would need to handle advantageous positions like check or checkmate.
That extra dimension makes Shogi such a brain burner. It also forces something of a permanent middlegame.

I had a diferent issue with Ubuntu 22.04 LTS on a 2022 Thinkpad. Most of the time it would only detect my external DP 4K monitor as 30Hz instead of 60Hz so I had to unplug and replug it repeatedly until it would finally default to 60Hz while this never ever happens on Window with same monitor and same laptop.

And no, I couldn't just manually set it to 60Hz because that option wasn't detected and wasn't available until I would replugged it multiple times for it to be detected, and then lost again the next time I would replug or resume from sleep.

Linux is good, but God help you if you fall through the net of Linux HW compatibility quirks.

I played UO, AC,DAOC,Lineage2,Shadowbane,Planetside,Darkfall. Never really got into WoW because it lacked meaningful PvP and had grinded enough in previous games that I could see that mechanic clearly and it was no longer motivating.

As a player I remember in all of these games remarking that ‘can’t they just bring us the end game now without me having to grind for it?’ Planetside was the closest I got to that. I think working for something is important but too many games make the mouse trap the game.

Philosophically I wonder about how much ‘anticipation is everything’ is true ha

Most people, when talking abstractly about data privacy, are all for it, I think. But then see how many of us participate in bonus programs when shopping, carry smartphones that track our locations at all times, give all kinds of permissions to apps, or accepting away annoying pop up banners.

So, is it all just talk, and in practice, we don't really worry about data privacy?

If so, what are the reasons? Is it because we don't really experience an immidiate negative impact? Or perhaps the alleged negative implications have been overemphasized?

What are your thoughts...?
