Their official benchmarks => https://www.cpubenchmark.net/singleThread.html

According to PassMark CPU Benchmarks, a trusted source, updated frequently, the M3 Max 16 Core is the fastest single thread cpu with a score of 4,785, followed by the M3 Max 14 Core with a score of 4,771.

Although the numbers above are close, it does not make much sense to me that a chip with more CPUs will be faster on single thread performance than the same chip with less CPUs. But I can be wrong.

Also, according to this list, even the M3 8 Core beats the M4 chips (Pro and Max included). Again on single thread performance.

Am I missing something or the M3 for single thread performance is faster than the M4?

I can't emphasize enough that I'm only talking about single thread performance here.

I find these a bit annoying, as I think the side effect is that they are basically main beam all the time otherwise, and only dim selectively.

Which is great and all, but means things like they are projecting FRICKIN' LASERS into people's homes (especially when turning) or if you are a pedestrian that it doesn't detect properly (e.g. at some distance down a cluttered urban road etc) you get someone driving at you with really very uncomfortably bright lights shining in your face (I get this a lot when running at night - perhaps the models detect a pedestrian walking but not jogging?).

I am sure it works great in controlled conditions (and I have seen YouTube videos out on the clear open road where it detects oncoming vehicles nicely) but it feels pretty ineffective and anti-social in an urban/suburban environment, at least to me.
They might be, but that does not help much, as roads are neither level nor pitched at a constant grade. The attribution of the effect to acceleration might (at least in some cases) be a misdiagnosis of a problem actually caused by a slight longitudinal convexity of the road.
Careful that this library last I used it (2020 or so) used a particularly insecure encoding of the cursor that basically allows remote execution. Not sure if they ever addressed it.

For my case, I've seen some guys/girls who used to be very pretty/cute during my younger years (e.g. primary school) but later on become meh. And some who looked unremarkable at all suddenly "Is that really them???"

I wonder if there's an AI for that.

Even more useful: AI that gives you step by step from meh to wow. But I guess that's called make up class.

Thanks for the feedback.

I was thinking much more freeform.

In the code, you'd send events to the backend using something like:

`post_to_aerial("task_X","some args")`

In Aerial, you would then match "task_X" to some icon or some part of your documentation. The way I envision it is that Aerial is very visual, so it's mostly diagrams.

In a way, if you start by drawing the diagram the way you envision things to run, you could setup the monitoring before the code itself, in a sort of "monitoring-driven-development".

> They don't seem to understand that (for the most part), taxes in their own city benefit their city.

They usually understand that perfectly well, but understanding that doesn't mean that they should not rationally try to minimize the taxes that they personally pay. The ideal scenario for any individual A is that A pays as little in taxes as possible and all A's neighbors pay as much as necessary to fund the government programs which A benefits from. For A, intentionally shopping locally in order to pay higher but local taxes is against their own rational self interest.

Policy shouldn't be designed to only work for the collective good if every individual works against their own self interest—any policy designed that way is doomed to failure from the get go.
It was always a strong reality in places where politics are a over simplistic two sided view "Left" vs "Right".

This botched view can only lead to the herd mentality of "if you're not like us, you're wrong", which in the US or South Korea has slowly turned to "if you're note like us, you're dangerous".

Democracy needs a personal implication into complex concepts that can't be answered with yes or no and many people lack the will to understand those concepts.
Whoever comes forward and says "I'll handle this complex issue this way" will be the new messiah.

This now seems like the downside of bringing huge knowledge to the masses with the internet. Now that everyone knows everything, they don't want anything to do with it.

Maybe it's also linked to a current trend that you're supposed to have an opinion about everything happening. If you say that you're with the "magenta" party, everybody knows "your opinion" without the need of forging one yourself.

It's kind of meh news at this point. There's a ton of blinding vehicles on the road in the States, and it is getting worse at an accelerated rate, and even if fancy matrix-ey headlights became the norm it will take a Very Long Time for the old stuff to get cycled out.

Up next, let me tell you about that time that we held onto analog AMPS cell phones for years longer than any developed country that I know if, and how when we did finally begin to transition to something digital we made sure that we failed to standardize on any one format and made all of them as incompatible with things like European GSM as we could.
Normally you take your content and run it through an embedding model, inserting the resulting vectors into the vector DB. On a query, for instance, you run the query through the embedding model and query the vector database for the most similar hits to the resulting embedding vector. Similarly reranking is when get get the broad hits from the embedding similarity search and/or BM25, and then a reranker uses the looked up source material to rank the results more finely.

This is building it into the vector DB such that you send it the content and it is "built in".

Seems silly. It's like bundling a stove with cookware. But cookware fit specific niches and have different life cycles. I get that it might cater to some "drop in solution" targets, but seems of no value for most engineered, long-term solutions.
> Almost everyone except politicians is critical of big corporations, yet they're ever growing like a tumor, leaving small mom-and-pop businesses by the wayside.

Corporations found themselves a river of wealth flowing throught the economy and squat on it. That how they became corporations. By walking randomly they landed in a profitable spot, which allowed them to grow like a tumor and extract even more value. That's why politicians are interested in them, because they can leach some of that wealth that's getting extracted. Mom and pop shops are just potential corporations that sat in the wrong spot. They are failed businesses. What's why governement doesn't pay attention to them. While corporations are pumping out rivers of wealth with industrial pumps mom and pop shops are just treading a little bit of liquid wealth in a puddle with a short stick and taking out a little bit that stuck to it. Effect on community, jobs and such is totally irrelevant. Government and the rich don't care about poor people unless there's a chance they might rebel.

When you say "everyone except politicians is critical" - "everyone" means, nobody important.

you can use fully featured frontend frameworks without a build step. while that may sound ingenious because you are effectively using a prebuilt version of the framework (so there is a build step somewhere) you are not suffering the problems that come with building it yourself. instead your code is used and stored in a way that it will work directly in the browser as long as browsers support javascript.

> In August, King Frederik X, the new Danish King, made an official visit to the gallery during his first tour. Since I’m not in the least a royalist, I was surprised at how sentimental the event made me

This is something a lot of people don't appreciate about a modern constitutional monarchy with a functioning democracy: The modern role of royalty.

In the US, (I'm American,) we don't have events like this. Why? Elected officials (the President, a governor, mayor, ect,) has to perform these roles. They can't do these as often because they (elected officials) are busy running the country / state / city, trying to get reelected, or helping someone else get reelected.

When these events happen in the US, they are always inherently political. You always have an opinion of the leader. Even when event isn't supposed to be political, there's always a remark or an attempt to schmooze to get you to vote some way.

In this case, my understanding is that the King's primary role is an apolitical (because he's not elected) representation of the government and culture. We (in the US) simply don't have this. We get movie stars and Donald Trump.

I'm not trying to say that one form of government is better than the other: There are always people who are power hungry seeking power, and there are always people who are wealth hungry trying to manipulate the system. What I'm trying to do is point out that Henrik's system (constitutional monarchy) has its own advantages.

to understand what I said, you have to solve the Error Handling Challenge, in your favorite programming language https://rm4n0s.github.io/posts/3-error-handling-challenge/

When you try to implement it, then everything on what I said will make sense to you.

Also, we don't need log systems when there is a programming language like Odin to parse stack traces with type checking (not just string like you gave me as an example from Java).

In microservices you are the error handlers. For example, if in the logs you see a stack trace, then you will go to the code and fix the error.

In Odin I don't need to go in that trouble, because ALL the stack traces can be handled. There will be no undefined behavior in software or unexpected input that caused an unexpected stack trace, so there is no reason to have logs.
You may have noticed that the most fiercely-invoked right in the US these days is the one to be a full-on asshole.

Well… it’s up to us to terraform it then. First step is a large parasol in the Sun-Venus L1. Then seed it with extremophiles that can use the CO2 and heat to make more of them. We’ll also need to pipe in hydrogen from solar winds (a magnetic field on the periphery of the parasol), but the atmosphere needs to cool down a bit before we get there. With the extra oxygen, we’ll get liquid water on the surface.

I don't enjoy the fact that he's obviously biased and defends Apple too often, and occasionally shows his lack of technical understanding. But this man's job is writing and he writes better than 90% of blog posts posted on HN. And he has plenty of long form posts. His iPhone reviews are often longer than most tech journalists' reviews. I often disagree with the contents of his writing, but I do have a soft spot for people who wield language well.
Each country has their own misleading way of calculating PPP. Some probably include the iPhone price.

However technically correct from a certain point of view you may be, I was supporting home users for a small ISP in the very early 2000s and you’re wrong in any way that matters. In practice NAT on its own made remote attacks on home networked devices far harder.
> There is plenty of code that is guaranteed not to throw -- starting from operations on basic types

This is fair, although this places some mental load on the programmer because they need to be careful when dealing with generics / operator overloading or when extracting helper functions.

> noexcept functions if we are talking about C++

This is a good C++-specific guarantee. But it's probably outweighted by the C++-specific lack of guarantees. "Operations on basic types" can now invoke UB, if we are talking about C++.

> Isn't it too much clutter?

In cases with one generic parameter, like the ones I demonstrated, I think it looks ok. Normal generic code. Rust generics are only going to require less ceremony in the future, because the team keeps making progress on implied bounds, lifetime elision, 2024 lifetime capture rules.

> What if a function has three arguments? You'd need three generic parameters for their errors.

This really depends on the context and what the code actually does, and needs a concrete example to discuss. I don't remember seeing a real world example with three Result parameters, nevermind having generic but distinct errors in them.
