> Desktop Maxwell’s video engine undershot bitrate targets while the Tegra X1’s got closer. For example, the GTX 980 Ti averaged 12.13 mbps with a 15 mbps target, while the Tegra X1 averaged 14.16 mbps. Intel’s QuickSync on Skylake CPUs can also do HEVC encoding, and massively undershot bitrates. With the same requested 15 mbps, QuickSync averaged just 10.2 mbps.

I wonder how Nvidia 3XXXGT and 4XXXGT cards would perform at the HEVC encoding task.

> Communities that are willing to run AI over their knowledge base are going to develop a big advantage over those who don't.

I have a hard time seeing this. If you're an academic or an industrial researcher, the hard part of the literature review isn't finding the relevant papers, it's digesting them--and in some fields (e.g., chemistry), replicating their results. If you're more an industry person trying to apply academic research, well in general, you probably want a good textbook synthesis of the field rather than trying to understand stuff from research papers.

From your second paragraph, it seems to me that you're thinking AI will help with the textbook synthesis step, but this is the sort of thing that as far as I can tell, current LLMs are just fundamentally bad at. To use a concrete example, I have been off-and-on poking at research into simplex presolving, and one of the things you quickly find is that just about everybody has their own definition of the "standard model", so to mix and match different papers, you have to start by recasting everything into a single model. And capturing the nuance of "these papers use the same symbols to mean completely different things" isn't a strong point of LLMs.
The actual article had nothing to do with training 1RM, this whole thread comes from a misinformed top level comment.

We had algorithm questions, but they weren't absurd. Whereas you'll routinely run into leetcode "hard" questions in interviews now -- which should be a dead giveaway that the candidate has memorized the answer -- back then you'd maybe get one question that peaked out at about medium. That's about the practical limit for a competent (but exceptional) mortal who hasn't simply memorized a book of trivia.

(And yes, we did these on whiteboards.)

It wasn't that long ago that Joel Spolsky proposed fizzbuzz as an interview screen...and he really meant that you should ask that question. The idea was that you demonstrate that you can write code using a simple test, then move on to more important factors. Can you imagine such a thing today?

This paper covers many demographics, not just ethnicity. So you are wanting to really do "model = models.get(a, b, x, y, z)". It may be possible, but with medical data in such short supply, you would be lucky to get a large enough dataset.

You would also need to assume there no overlap in the distribution in the training data for each strata of training data. I would imagine that if you taught someone to detect cancer in x-rays, and only used images of people aged 80+, you might still have some success (>0.5) at detecting cancer in people aged 20-30.

They would if you had used your company credit card to pay a hitman though. Perhaps this isn't the strongest argument for why the military for a political assassination isn't an official act. My point still stands though that all limitations of the powers of the President are still there, so not everything they do will be considered an official act.

Sadly, we can't, for such a test would already be enough to solve the halting problem: if a TM's status is provable, enumerate possible proofs (of halting and non-halting) until we find one and know the result; if the status is not provable, then the machine certainly cannot halt.

You’re talking about the ninth amendment: “The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.”

That says that the list of rights enumerated in the constitution is non-exhaustive. That just means that rights can exist in other places besides the Constitution. But if you want to say there is such a right, you have to identify that right in some other source.

But the “emanations from penumbras” language isn’t referring to a non-enumerated right found somewhere else. It’s saying that the privacy right originates in the “emanations from penumbras” of the constitution. So it’s saying the constitution itself creates that right.
Nope. No pseudo code. Definitely lots of whiteboarding. Lots of "recall arcane facts". (Like "Why did our counter stop counting up at 16M" - the answer being "because you used float for a counter, what's wrong with you")

And definitely lots of algorithmic questions.

Better questions than leetcode, though, because they were usually grounded in an actual problem the interviewer had.
On the scale of clickbait headlines this is pretty minor.

IMO, because it gives you a way to know if a program will terminate or not. If it consists of 5 states and goes beyond 47176870 steps of execution, then it will never halt. However, we are currently limited to 1 to 5 states Turing programs. And you can make correspondance between some Turing machines and some theorems in Mathematics thus it gives you a way to prove them I guess.

No, Chrome doesn't eg. do style computation with a parallel algorithm like Firefox does since it adpoted Servo's style resolution engine. See how faster it is: https://nolanlawson.github.io/css-talk-2022/#70

I'm assuming you're talking about very basic, low power, pointer style lasers. If that's the case, it's time to go into very basic electronics. You're basically replacing the switch in that with some lines connected to your i2c/gpio/whatever. It's not going to be different from turning on an LED. Laser you can program == cheap laser pointer, taken apart, switch replaced.

If you're talking about some bigger devices, then you probably want more interesting electronics and a lot of info about laser safety...

Among the previous techniques were questions like how many apples would fit inside Mt. Fuji. It was an invitation to do some talk aloud problem solving on some unknown answer with the purpose of gaining insight into the candidates cognitive processes. It turned out it was also a heuristic for readership for some science magazines. I was totally surprised by them early in my career and again floored when I learned that some families would discussed such problems in the car. Didn't map to the job so it wasn't a good proxy for fitness.
Companies that liked to do stupid "gotcha" questions still did those, they just expected you to regurgitate the answer onto a whiteboard or (occasionally) into an IDE on a provided laptop instead of a website.

All the other companies did the same as the non-leetcode companies do today. IQ test type things ("next shape in the sequence"), Fermi problems ("how many piano tuners"), behavior questions ("tell me about a time when..."), code review ("look at this [bugged] code, what improvements would you suggest"), systems analysis ("explain the sequence of events that happen when..."), systems design ("draw an architecture diagram of a project you recently worked on and explain it") etc.
This is exactly what I’m not excited for: indie game discovery is already hard enough, Steam widening the floodgates has not been a positive experience. Reducing the effort to create games even further is going to DoS the indie game market as we see the same studios that pump out hundreds of hentai games suddenly able to broaden their audiences significantly.
It could be an instrumentation issue, different hospitals use different machines.
Its not quite the same problem. Timezones are a transformation applied on top of UTC. If you are writing code, you are transforming the always increasing UTC to a more or less arbitrary dates and times.

Moving backwards means you (your code) experiences the same time twice.
ive gotten fizzbuzz or some variation that's a play on the companies name a few times. i usually interview for like sre/devops type jobs though.
Of course presidents need more physical protection. The "protection" being referred to is protection from the government and legal system.

If there were a pattern of presidents being unjustly punished for their actions, for political gain or retribution, then something like this might make sense. There is not yet a pattern, and I think that to strengthen the power of the president in such an undefined and potentially very broad way, should be done with great caution and only when it is clear that the ability of the government to use the legal system against former presidents is being systemically abused. I don't think that is at all clear, there just isn't enough data yet.

If they wanted to protect Trump from some of the current prosecution against him, they could have done so much more narrowly.

I don't disagree with you. However, my point was that the parent poster's reasoning was flawed.

Stacking these services on top of each other in this way does not necessarily mean that an attacker has to compromise both services in order to compromise a host. The parent poster's flawed reasoning appeared to lead to a false sense of security as a result.
Desert, n, stress on the first syllable, means a place without much rain, but it comes from the notion of being deserted so sometimes it just means an unpopulated area.

To desert, v, stress on the second syllable, means to leave/abandon something.

Desert, n, stress on the second syllable, is what you deserve "he got his just deserts"

Dessert, n, stress on the second syllable, is a sweet course of a meal that follows the main course. It has an extra s because of its etymology not its pronunciation.

I'm quite sure this mess was designed to be as confusing as possible.
That's actually a good idea in the short term (i.e. less than one century). The length of the day (LOD) is thought to be linearly increasing in the long term though, so ΔT, the cumulative difference between past SI days and actual LOD, should be quadratically increasing and a delayed leap second adjustment would be too slow to catch up at some point in the future.

Yet another possibility is to put any possible kind of leap second at the beginning of the year. The only requirement set by past CGPMs is that dUTC = UT1 - UTC should be in [-0.9, +0.9] seconds, so we can always put a positive leap second when dUTC is in [-0.9, -0.1]s and a negative leap second when dUTC is in [+0.1, +0.9]s, dramatically increasing the number of leap seconds without violating the dUTC requirement. If the dUTC requirement is a bit more relaxed (say, [-2, +2] seconds) then we can even mandate leap second every year!

But well no, I'm strongly against the current form of leap seconds because it is already problematic in the short term and will be yet useless in the long term. Recall that ΔT is expected to be quadratically increasing in the long term; this means that the effectiveness of leap seconds is limited to the point when any small fixed number of leap seconds per year (12 in the current system, but anything larger than 1 will cause a problem) is no longer sufficient, and that point is not far from the point where the magnitude of ΔT is significantly large and leap seconds are absolutely required. As DST demonstrates, the world is probably fine with ~2,000 seconds of ΔT, which wouldn't happen before 2500, but at that point we would already start using double leap seconds per year at average. We would probably abolish leap seconds for that reason alone.

I'd love for you to give it a try and share your thoughts. Your feedback is invaluable as we continue to refine and improve the app.
I would prototype a solution in AGE. It will eliminate the barrier between "graph" and "relational". Postgres also scales rather well.
In the 90’s when I was at Microsoft it was common for people to ask brain teasers and algorithm questions and expect people to be able to reason through the problems even if they walked in not knowing the particular algorithm or data structures involved. The interview was graded more on your thought process and ability to make forward progress with hints and less on getting to a correct answer in 25 minutes.

People were super harsh about attention to detail, e.g. you had to write code that would compile on the whiteboard and you would get penalized to some degree for making mistakes, especially if there were enough to make it clear that you hadn’t really been using the language you claimed to be proficient in.
Sorry I should have clarified. I am thinking of lasers for light shows. Doesn't have to be industrial level, small low powered ones would be fine.

I am lot more interested in the software side of this, so Im hoping I don't have to rig together a bunch of individual lasers together.
Hmm. Perhaps that's a solution, I'll give it a try. Thanks.
> Whereas you'll routinely run into leetcode "hard" questions in interviews now

Where are you seeing LC hard questions? I’m in a fairly big Slack where people have been comparing notes on interviews for years. The number of people who actually get LC hard problems is extremely small.

A lot of people will claim they got LC hards immediately after an interview when they couldn’t solve them, but when you ask them to describe the question and someone looks it up, it’s always a medium.

There were also sites where people could report recent LC problems they received from specific companies. Hard questions rarely made the list of commonly asked questions.

The only exception seems to be people interviewing at certain companies in India for some reason.
I never understood that game. Maybe I should watch a tutorial or something.
Likely this and radiologist practices and storage methods and patient demographics and a bunch of other things. However, if they're training these models with the intention of using them in other hospitals I'd still define that as overfitting.
Not everyone's jumps happen at the same time (or ever).
