The sibling comments are better, but I want to share my anecdote anyway...

My brother opened a bakery a few years ago.

It's more work than expected: You have to get up early and manage providers and employee(s) and regulations.

It cost more than expected: They didn't buy flour but premade unbaked bread and cooked them. They had to buy a special racks with wheels for the trays with the dought pieces.

You may enjoy the new challenges, but don't expect it to be a walk in the park.

Do you have a friend that owns a similar shop? Perhaps you can share your idea and "intern" there for a month as "Owner Assistant (TM)" to understand better the problems and advantages.
> Something a little bit scary around the world is that it looks like that bad guys are quite active and good at disrupting democracies and elections in free countries (France, us, Romania, moldovia, ...) whereas it looks like that the western world has really low influence to disrupt these countries for a political change.

What's more scary is how quick many people are to blame foreign boogeymen instead having a hard look at their own politicians and the hostile policies they have been implementing. You don't need to disrupt democracies when there is hardly anything democratic left about them.
Correct, Johannes Lundberg implemented this on my team at LLNW and we needed to preserve the existing interface and behavior at both an API and ABI level.
> What benefits has ipv6 beside that ipv4 addresses for public servers are in short supply?

What more benefits do you need?

It's a major issue for many folks, especially if you (a) didn't manage to get in early on the IPv4 land rush, or (b) aren't a mega-corp with money to buy a whole bunch of addresses:

> Our [American Indian] tribal network started out IPv6, but soon learned we had to somehow support IPv4 only traffic. It took almost 11 months in order to get a small amount of IPv4 addresses allocated for this use. In fact there were only enough addresses to cover maybe 1% of population. So we were forced to create a very expensive proxy/translation server in order to support this traffic.

> We learned a very expensive lesson. 71% of the IPv4 traffic we were supporting was from ROKU devices. 9% coming from DishNetwork & DirectTV satellite tuners, 11% from HomeSecurity cameras and systems, and remaining 9% we replaced extremely outdated Point of Sale(POS) equipment. So we cut ROKU some slack three years ago by spending a little over $300k just to support their devices.

Do you think we'd have as much mobile/smartphone connectivity without IPv6? T-Mobile US went to IPv6-only on handsets because of exhaustion, and they're only one carrier (in the US).
Aaah. I assumed that for that kind of thing Twitch did the transcoding.
> The One is the first device to be developed to have native support for OpenWrt and in fact run it with no changes.

Except there's no such thing as "OpenWrt with no changes", because every OpenWrt build for every device is itself modified specifically for that device. The OpenWrt One is no exception; its OpenWrt builds, too, have device-specific settings and drivers, just like any other supported router.

> The other devices are unsupported when running “third party” firmware, which would be OpenWrt is that case.

It's a stretch to call them "unsupported" when the routers in question are specifically advertised as compatible with OpenWrt (if not already outright running OpenWrt).

> OpenWrt is saying “this is the first router made for us, by us,”

Which is still quite different from "this is the first router designed specifically for OpenWrt".
It's 2024, you should be blocking GitHub (and, arguably, Steam) anyway. And if the hardware ( / firmware) is so shit that it still doesn't support it, you shouldn't be using it, since it's basically e-waste at this point (and causing more e-waste by the network effect).

The issue with trying to run dual-stack is that now you have to learn two kinds of networking, and all the extra complexity (which is actually more than 2x, complexity doesn't scale linearly), which matters since mistakes here can easily become security mistakes.
Because everytime I perform NPM operations I'm slapped in the face with `This version is no longer supported.`.

Yes. The US has excellent national standards (low beams can be 15,000 to 20,000 candela per side), however nearly everything is administered by the states, and only 14 of 50 states have annual safety inspections. It used to be most states, but it was hijacked and used as a racket to steal from customers. Accessory LED lighting (off road) is illegal, but only required to be covered on road in California and Pennsylvania. Additionally, the US also bumper height restrictions that are mostly ignored (except California). Many lifted SUVs and trucks are illegal. That means if your car is t-boned by a lifted SUV you could be struck in the head by the bumper.
> Monet may have been a counter culture artist in his time but today he has a somewhat universal appeal. Is that cultural? Are we now primed to like Monet because people have told us to like Monet?

The counter culture of his time was only because France had tried to make art be controlled from the top down. Part of the enlightenment was related to the idea that you could find "truth" in all forms through discovery like in science. So Aesthetics and language also became Prescriptive, where a central authority says what is right (just like science academy says what is right in science).

English for example is a non prescriptive language and there is no central authority, so english dictionaries describe how english is used not how english should be. France still has an academy of writers who says how French SHOULD be.

In the arts however the Salon failed, because art is not prescriptive and there is no right way to do art. Some people might work tirelessly to make a 200ft tall painting of virgin mary, and some might make a tiny postcard of a boat in their hometown and you cannot tell which one will move you from that description alone.

> So then what will be remembered from our time?

One of the main drivers of quality is influence. Its hard to tell what is good art when seeing it, but in 10 years when everything either looks like that or rejects that or responds to it in some way then that was good art. Bad art is forgotten.

So what will be remembered from our time is easy to know because things like the internet have accelarated cycles. People now get tired and move on to the next thing much faster.

So when people come back to hyper-pop, early, internet aesthetics almost 14 years later you know that it was good art (see 100 gecs, charli xcx, sophie). When more bands start being mysterious, adding lore through internet channels, adding metal and noise influences into hiphop you can tell Death Grips was good art.

In more traditional art you have an entire wave of artists now who are hyper sensible, honest and earnest. This is a rejection of artist like Koons or Hockney with their hyper capitalist "it sells" attitude that dominated post Warhol. That means those were good artist if everyone know wants to not be like them.

What wont be rememebred would be the awful graffitis facebook paid to have in their offices, or the Beeple NFT art that sold for millions at auction. Because it moved no one, it means nothing and it largely for headlines to move stock prices and nothing else. No one even hates that art, its just completely ignored as irrelevant.
Oversimplifying warning:

Must of the problems described here come from a cultural setup that you can't tell or even suggest your managers that they are stupid and/or someone above them is even more stupid.

I noticed that this is especially painful in the US companies, we in Europe seem to be much more lucky with telling people that they do stupid sh*t and not lose the job after telling that. But YMMV

NVidia would be dramatically affected, just not overnight.

If Intel or AMD sold a niche product with 48GB RAM even at a loss, but hit high-end consumer pricing, there would be a flood of people doing various AI work to buy it. The end result would be that parts of NVidia's moat would start draining rather quickly, and AMD / Intel would be in a stronger position for AI products.

I use NVidia because when I bought AMD during the GPU shortage, ROCm simply didn't work for AI. This was a few years back, but I was burned badly enough that I'm unlikely to risk AMD again for a long, long time. Unused code sits broken, and no ecosystem gets built up. A few years later, things are gradually improving for AMD for the kinds of things I wanted to do years ago, but all my code is already built around NVidia, and all my computers have NVidia cards. It's a project with users, and all those users are buying NVidia as well (even if just for surface dependencies, like dev-ops scripts which install CUDA). That, times thousands of projects, is part of NVidia's moat.

If I could build a cheap system with around 200GB, that would be incentive for me to move the relatively surface dependencies to work on a different platform. I can buy a motherboard with four PCI slots, and plug in four 48GB cards to get there. I'd build things around Intel or AMD instead.

The alternative is NVidia would start shipping competitive cards. If they did that, their high-end profit margins would dissolve.

The breakpoints for inference functionality are really at around 16GB, 48GB, and 200GB, for various historical reasons.
And how would that be helpful? Even if the user, with very limited knowledge of the vpn server and its config or general knowledge about vpns, is even able to describe a bug appropriately very few bugs are unknown bugs. From my 10 year experience working with Cisco and similar products (including client vpn) I've only reported a handful of unknown bugs to vendors, so in almost all cases it's already been fixed and software needs to be upgraded, or it's a config issue, or some other issue that can be worked around by IT.

I think the general rule is "the smarter the model the better the embedding" but I can't cite a paper right now. So in theory GPT 4 would give better embeddings (if extracted from the middle layers) but that would be overkill.

The issue with templates they could handle only simple cases or very specific complex static queries. Simple ones are a way easier with ORM/query builder. Highly depends from ORM though.

And a big NO-NO for me templates force you to repeat the same SQL in many slightly different queries. SQL composability is not a thing with templates.

I'm not asking startups to change politics. The opposite. It is often literally like I said. You ask someone do you support startups? Yes. Do you support innovation? Yes. Do you support education? Yes.

So where in your region can I live to have runway to start a business? Where can I find a space to do some manufacturing? How can I attend the local college? Well, actually... *excuses*.

Most just blatantly doesn't support their local community. They complain that the business are closing then defund and sell everything local, lower taxes and spend the money elsewhere.

I wish it was more complex than that, but in most cases it isn't. In many cases the local car dealership and contractors are doing well. Because that is what they actually prioritize and spend money on in those communities.

Can confirm this anecdotally. When I use my bike light in blinking mode, drivers are more careful around me every time. When I use the non-blinking mode, there have been times when drivers have clearly ignored my presence and I’ve had to wave my hand in front of the light to simulate blinking to get their attention.

Oh, this is common. Fun when you have two different dependencies which both use Guava, but different versions, and you can't upgrade them to a common shared one. The solution there usually means having to shade Guava for one of them, which sucks, but it at least gets things working.

It's not much of a problem when you use it yourself, but it is when your dependencies do.

The term "food desert" has always seemed needlessly provocative to me.

Growing up in the UK my family used to drive 15-20 mins to the supermarket and do a big weekly or monthly shop. The nearest _decent_ non-petrol-station style shop with actual food would have been an hours' walk.

In the US unless you actually live in the absolute middle of nowhere like rural rural you're not more than 20 miles from a supermarket. Map example - everywhere other than the darkest red colour is a 15-20 min drive:

https://imgur.com/distance-to-nearest-large-supermarket-usa-...

Basically almost anywhere that has any meaningful population at all you're sub 20 mins drive. Of course there's not much in rural areas, that's what rural means.

There seems to be a focus on whether you "need" a car which has always seemed silly to me. If you don't have a car in the USA, outside of somewhere like NYC or specific metro corridors, you are going to have a significantly limited life in so many ways that having to drive to the supermarket just seems like a triviality in comparison.

Even in Britain people just like, have cars, it's normal, if you don't then outside of London it's just kind of embarrassing.

The whole thing seems like someone just wants an excuse to be provocative, just like, go to the supermarket, it's not that deep.

It's really hard to find non-blinding lights for bikes here in the States.

The Germans seem to have a standard (with TUV certification) for it, as of course they do. But we don't get much of that kit here.

(And because search engines are absolutely ruined: Searching for less, like "dim bike light" or "non-blinding" or whatever always winds up with finding more, instead.

"Oh, you're searching for a nice pleasant light that just illuminates the path in front of you at a warm color temperature without blinding anyone? Let me show you the MEGAFUCKER 9000! Powered by 48VDC and over 9000K, this light is guaranteed appear brighter than the sun and to ABSOLUTELY FUCK anyone within a kilometer! /r/fuckcars approved! You always knew you were an asshole, and with the MEGAFUCKER 9000 everyone else will know it too!"

Every single time.

(It's the same with anything else. Want a small, diminutive spatula so a small egg pan can actually be used for cooking instead of wall art? The more specific the search terms are, the bigger the fucking spatulas in the search results become.

Or even industrial or craft materials. Want rigid, open-cell, large-pore foam that doesn't sponge up water for a project? Good luck. Unless you already know exactly what product you need down to the SKU (which one can only glean via telepathy), the search results will consist entirely of opposite-world SUPER-SOFT EXTRA ABSORBENT foam.)

Twitch did in the past (mostly), but it is trying pivot at the moment: Take tight control over the encoding settings on the client side and just pass the already encoded stream through the CDN. https://help.twitch.tv/s/article/multiple-encodes

Also having different encoding settings for different purposes is desired (e.g. high quality local recording for an edit later while live streaming to different services at the same time [Twitch, Youtube, ...]).

That said, I'm not aware of Intel limiting the number of encoding streams, so I don't know where the number 2 originates.

Honestly, I don't think we would need "this type of RAM." The confused part of this discussion is the belief that we need obscene bandwidth.

If I need 300GB/s memory bandwidth for my workload, that can be accomplished with:

* One RAM chip with 300GB/s

* Two RAM chips with 150GB/s each

* Four RAM chips with 75GB/s each

Etc.

Stepping up from 16GB to 196GB, the bandwidth requirements for each chip go down 10-fold, and you can use much cheaper RAM as a result. And all the signalling requirements relax too.

Much of this discussion presumes a 200GB card would individually need the same capacity to each RAM chip as a 12GB card. This is just false. An A770 or 4060-grade card couldn't keep up with that much data. And if I'm using a small model, I can get the same bandwidth by properly distributing it among RAM chips (which most hardware does automatically).

An A770 or 4060-grade card, with the same total memory capacity as we have today, but 200GB RAM, would allow us to run high-quality LLMs locally or do high-resolution renders. That wouldn't have the same performance as a $200k card, obviously, but for many inferences uses, that's just not very important.

If I were buying for my own uses, I'd want 12x 32GB PC3200 DIMMs for a total of 384GB RAM at $600 for the RAM (say $2k total), with an individual throughput of 25GB/sec and a total throughput of 300GB/sec. I'd be okay with 4060-grade performance. My own uses are a bit niche, and I think for most other people's uses, something with a little more throughput and a little less capacity (48-196GB) might make more sense. But you definitely don't need the same throughput as existing GPU RAM.
