It's an interesting point to consider. If you look at Google Earth—there are very few lights on during the night in North Korea. The comparison of the North to the South is stunning—and even more stunning considering the imbalance of raw and earth materials in each country, but that's a separate thing.

I think Americans generally fail to appreciate our shared, unspoken mindset of abundance. Our grocery stores are stocked with food we'll never eat, we leave lights on and charge our electronics when we don't need to, we drive when we don't need to...all the way down to Dunkin' Donuts throwing away hundreds of donuts per store per day. We waste so much stuff, just because we can.

If you remove the North's nuclear ambitions and just consider on a human level—25,000,000/80,000 would mean that for the assumption to hold, an ASU student would need to use 312.5 times more power than a North Korean. It's my guess, that if you do not include the power used in Chinese factories where workers are from NK, that probably checks out. I would take another bold stroke and say that the power used by NK on an institutional and military level is probably similar to ASU's consumption—I know ASU has a (probably smaller) nuclear lab of its own. This also depends on how we count power consumption—is the jet fuel and gas used by students' travel counted? North Korea only has like 3 Soviet-era planes and very few vehicles, and travel is generally a disproportionate use of energy and carbon emissions for the average person.

The problem with any sort of analysis like this is everything we (as the public) know about NK is from defectors. However, the defectors also skew our perspective—they are generally from higher class families that serve in military positions or travel in ways that can get them closer to the border (not all cases, but a fair generalization). They would generally (again making very broad strokes here) use much more electricity than the average person. For this reason, and it's ironic, but most SK scholars I met thought that we in the West _overestimated_ the North's living standards, but they had an ulterior motive in looking to win the soft power war.

Anyway, thanks for the thoughts. I lived in Seoul for a while and was just fascinated by the imbalance between the two countries.

If you are reading 1000 lines from stdin at once to separate Strings, you are already going to be accessing memory in 1000 places at the same time, and making it 1001 isn't meaningfully worse for your cache. (Implementation would be Vec<String>, which would lay out the 1000 headers contiguously.)

But I genuinely have a hard time understanding for what kind of workload I would ever do that. If you want to read a 1000 lines of stdin, and cannot use an iterator and must work on them at the same time, I would likely much rather read them into a single string and then split that into a 1000 &str using the .lines() iterator.
I’d be happy to help. My email is in my profile
> If you're just going off someone mentioning they "open-sourced" their work, not checking the license, and importing that into corporate projects, then you could end up with anything and would frankly be lucky to later find a FSL or BSL rather than something in the GPL family.

You would expect to be able to run the program freely, including as part of your production services, without incurring any obligations. And under any open-source license (including GPL-family) you can, because that's part of what open-source means. Getting presented with a bill because the program turned out to be BSL and the way you were using it means you need a commercial license is absolutely a scam.

> if you're talking about building anything, that is already too hard for ML researchers.

I don't think so. I agree it is too hard for the ML researches at the companies which will have their rear ends handed to them by the other companies whose ML researchers can be bothered to follow a blog post and prompt ChatGPT to resolve error messages.
I ported Karparthy's llm.c repo to AMD devices [1], and have trained GPT2 from scratch with 10B tokens of fineweb-edu on a 4x 7900XTX machine in just a few hours (about $2 worth of electricity) [2].

I've also trained the larger GPT2-XL model from scratch on bigger CDNA machines.

Works fine.

In Rust, you would do both of those with a &str, which works fine. Just works exactly as in C, with no calls to memcopy or allocator or anything. And you would also be able to do all the other things that in C use null termination, too.

ROCm supports current gen consumer gpus officially and a decent chunk of recent gen consumer gpus unofficially. Not all of them of course but a decent chunk.

It's not ideal but I'm pretty sure CUDA didn't support everything from day 1. And ROCm is part of AMD's vendor part of the Windows AI stack so from upcoming gen on out basically anything that outputs video should support ROCm.

There's your aunt who posts objectively deligtful to at least mildly interesting updates about her life (I love the cookie press you found made by distant relatives' business in the 30's)

And then there are sporadic groups which are fairly specific niches and well moderated. Like the Fungus Federation of Santa Cruz, local EDM (dance music) groups, that group that only posts people who kinda look like Adam Sandler...

A lot of it has to do with taxes. These carwashes are basically just real-estate parking. The formula is simple, buy a plot of land in an area you think will be high demand, plop a carwash on it to reduce taxes for owning that land (maybe pull in a few bucks here and there), wait for the land value to appreciate significantly, sell it for a profit to future development (or another person who thinks the land will further appreciate).

End result loads of carwashes doing nothing. Pretty sure it was the same reason mattress stores were everywhere at one point. You just need like 1 person to operate the store so paying their salary is nothing compared to the future appreciation of the land value.
> The american people are mostly against israel and sending billions to israel.

Your friends and people you interact with may be mostly against. It’s not clear that Americans generally are.

Pew [1] has a pretty much even split on military support for Israel, with 36% favoring it, 35% against it, and 29% either on the fence or unsure. Only 22% in the same poll say that Biden is favoring Israel too much.

To the best of my knowledge (which isn’t great) .NET has multiple compilation levels for functions, using more time after a method has been called a few times. But starts with a pretty fast but naive compilation. It also, I believe, specialises everything all the time, but (probably because of the multi-level compilation) that doesn’t seem to be a practical problem.
> You're literally advocating for a technocracy, which most people don't want.

I remember taking sociology in college, and the professor went around the room asking us what we thought the ideal form of government was. I said I thought it should be the best and brightest running the government in their areas of expertise, and not these circuses where corrupt demagogues win popularity contests.

That's when I learned that I'm a technocrat.

Fun fact, the EU is basically a technocracy. The European Commission authors all European law, and the legislature is reduced to being a vetoing and amending body. They came up with this system after a couple hundred years of people experimenting with republican forms of government, and it seems to be doing pretty well.

You can get the sweet spot with https://perplexity.ai/ for many cases. It does the searches, aggregated answer, and the actual supporting links.

I appreciate mercurial existing and I think there are lots of good ideas, but I _really really really really_ like the working tree/staging area/index model of git. It works so well for allowing commits to be done cleanly, even when the initial work is likely not done that cleanly.

I don't fully believe this, but I kind of believe that having the staging model is what allows git to be very good at modelling almost anything nicely. New workflows can be easily rolled out because we have this phase separation between committing and simply staging.

And just as a general thing, `git add -p` totally made me a better developer overnight, at least in terms of actually rereading my changes seriously (and fixing them up etc). The model isn't necessary to this kind of workflow but it helps!

I don't think being too good is the reason it didn't beat git. I think Mercurial didn't beat git because it's only marginally better. Not nearly enough to overcome network effects, but also just not enough to make people move for personal use. It is always advertised as more intuitive, and it might be, but the list of "very intuitive verb commands" largely matches git for the most common actions.

In addition the different kinds of branches are confusing. Once you understand git branches they're simple. Once you understand Mercurial branches you understand just one of the branching models it offers. I believe "bookmarks" are the most similar to git branches, but good luck finding out about them from the website without already knowing they exist. Instead it tells you all about keeping around a bunch of copies of the source tree.

Scaling using p2p is something that some of the big Silicon Valley giants use internally. It scales very well. Tau uses a combination of techniques on top of the DHT to ensure response time is quick. Unfortunately, our documentation is not that great (working on it), but we have three services that accelerate discovery and routing: Seer (keeps tabs on nodes' health and offers a DNS interface as well), Gateway (a load balancer that forwards traffic to nodes it keeps tunnels with), and TNS (a replicated registry of resources: what is what).

Between Seer and Gateway, the system handles resiliency.
Internally, CRDT is used for replication, which:
* allows nodes to still work offline or if the network gets partitioned
* prevents split-brain

The cons of CRDT are when it comes to orchestrating services like databases; we could end up with multiple instances of a master node, for example. This is why we plan to add a cluster mechanism that will allow the formation of dynamic clusters to facilitate the orchestration of stateful containers and VMs.

For the money part, we have a managed offering, enterprise support, a web console, and are building more.

We do believe in open source software and we do want to move the GPGPU market away from fully closed languages. The future is open for discussion but regardless, the status-quo at the moment is a proprietary and dominant implementation which only supports a single vendor.
