One of the reasons GPUs can have multiples of CPU bandwidth is they avoid the difficulties of pluggable dimms - direct soldered can have much higher frequencies at lower power.

It's one of the reasons why ARM Macbooks get great performance/watt, memory being even "closer" than mainboard soldered RAM so getting more of those benefits, though naturally less flexibility.
Nissan is the guy's name. Come on.

It doesn't matter if you're just a dude or a corporation, you play by the same rules. There isn't anything to solve here. These problems are solved between those those 2 parties and no one else.

Good Lord. It's in the public's interest it remains this way.

Another person here had it right, companies have been playing with fire with their URL shenanigans. From one time TLDs to abusing tracking parameters. Not to mention browsers in their insane quest to strip useful information out off their UIs, making you CLICK to see who owns the place. Clown world really.
It's also possible the "He" from the second "Hello" is RTL (part of the same RTL block as the rest of the Arabic text).
So...

No.

That's almost certainly a dumb idea. Always was. A red herring from the fossil fuel companies.

Obviously digging 1000kg of coal out of the ground, burning it to make electricity, and using that electricity to _synthetically create more coal_, and putting that back deep underground, is not going to put away even 100kg of carbon; You're probably lucky if you get 10kg given that CO2 is a trace gas.

You can do it cheaper, if you're willing to tolerate the carbon having less than the geological stability of coal. But then the ground burps and you're back to square one.

The part of carbon sequestration that isn't insultingly is the question of what happens once we've destroyed all the fossil fuel infrastructure and replaced that part of our civilization with renewables and (since it's always going to be advantageous to be a free rider) a good number of bomb craters.

My suspicion is that even when we get to that point, sequestration of 1kg is _so much more difficult_ than emission of 1kg was, that there's still a vast gulf between being at that point, and the point where we have the excess resources sufficient to sequester significant portions of the atmospheric carbon artificially. Probably instead, we end up coasting for a long while to see how much the biosphere can put away on its own; If we have climate change issues, we deal with them via stratospheric sulfur injection and by stochastically just adapting our footprint on the planet.

But I'm willing to be persuaded on this point. Perhaps there's work to be done with some kind of advantageous catalyst, mineral reserve & reaction (olivine maybe?), some way to cheat the system in the long run. I just don't think it's especially relevant to our plight in the short term.

The point is, charcoal production is the default method of carbon sequestration, the reliable null hypothesis by which you have to measure any other method, the denominator of human effort in this venture. No, even charcoaling the entire Earth's forests is nowhere close to sufficient to offset coal production (how the fuck could it be? The Carboniferous epoch was 60 million years long and we're going to run through its detritus in less than 600 years!), but a project to run a country-sized forest through the oven and into the mines every year is the _baseline_ for future meaningful effort.
In an incredibly tiny city nearby they’ve had public CCTV for decades. They even broadcast them. Me and my siblings would watch for my grandma or parents to come back from shopping.

This is exactly why I ditched WYSIWYG long before I knew how to code.
My personal advice where I am 2/2 in being successful in this method: find business you actually believe in but has 0 technical staff. Start at bottom in general operations. Soak up everything from day 1 with the intention to build their IT on your own terms, not someone elses.
In that case, we need a 512-bit memory bus to do this using the 32Gbit GDDR7 chips that should be on the market in the near future. This would be very expensive, but it should be possible, or do you see a reason why that cannot be done either?

That said, I am not an electrical engineer (although I work alongside one and have had a minor role in picking low end components for custom PCBs), I think if Intel were to make a GPU with 128GB VRAM using GDDR7 in the next year or two, the engineer who does the trace routing to make it possible should make a go fund me page for people to send beer money.
> The game devs are going to spend all their time & effort targetting amd/nvidia. Custom code paths etc.

From my experience they target NVidia and Consoles. AMD might get a look at the code just before release if they notice any big problems.

I'd be surprised if many Gamedevs even pick up the phone for an Intel GPU developer.

I'd say the question is what marketing channel.

You can't really do this with a Steam game; you'd need at least screenshots first.

If it's direct sales, you can do this with a powerpoint, as many have commented.

If it's via digital marketing, you can just test that they're clicking the ads. Or funnel them to a landing page where they click to buy or join a waitlist. Email marketing tends to convert very well to sales. If you can, you'd want to funnel everything into a squeeze page, where the only thing they can do is enter their email. Don't do it on a pop-up. You'll probably want to see where they're joining the waitlist from - is it under the hero banner, or the explanation, or the pricing page. This lets you know what they really care about.

This might be the old way of doing things though. More modern is to build a social media presence or get in front of someone else's and just propose something. If nobody is excited, then there's probably no market for it.
I used the original Pocket for oncall, and whilst it was indeed very handy, the keyboard was not comfortable at all for any moderate or long-term use. The issue is that its size puts it in a weird no-man's land - it's a bit too big to thumb-type like you'd do on a phone, and a bit too small to type with all your fingers, like on a regular keyboard. As a result, you end up awkwardly pecking at the keyboard with one or two fingers.

I think the GPD Win Max (10") is a much more practical device - it's just about big enough to type with all your fingers, and if you want something more pocketable, then the GPD Win Mini (7") is small enough to thumb-type whilst holding the device in your hands.

Given that one of the main reasons to use a Pocket over a regular tablet/phone is the keyboard, I think it's an important aspect that you shouldn't gloss over. It's unfortunate that none of the reviews I've seen of the Pocket series mentions this.
Show HN: Open-Source Colab Notebooks to Implement Advanced RAG Techniques
Hey HN fam,

We’ve seen developers spend a lot of time implementing advanced RAG techniques from scratch.

While these techniques are essential for improving performance, their implementation requires a lot of effort and testing!

To help with this process, our team (Athina AI) has released Open-Source Advanced RAG Cookbooks.

This is a collection of ready-to-run Google Colab notebooks featuring the most commonly implemented techniques.

Please show us some love by starring the repo if you find this useful!
I was originally interested in Godot because it had a web export. I feel like building on the web helps with shareability (eg: this post!)

But the "open web" seems to give limitless potential. Canvas, network APIs, lots of interesting libraries to build on, etc. I wasn't familiar with the ability to synthesize sounds - that would be interesting to look into.

Appreciate the feedback! :)
Thank you for everything!! I've shipped quite a few successful apps to clients on Phoenix ever since the beginning, and am about to launch a startup on it. It's truly changed my career more than maybe any other library.

Or it could be that people spend more time in their luxury vinyl planked house, vaping and having ingress air filled with formaldehyde from traffic

It'd make more sense and be less ethical to expose people to either formaldehyde or tire dust in a confined area, but that study is definitely not getting funded
Why did you make the decisions you did? My very first impression was “this looks different from Markdown for the sake of being different”. You say yours is easier to parse. Can you give some examples of when that might be try? Things like [*bold text] seem like they’d be harder to parse.

(It’s hard to communicate tone here. My intent above was to sound curious, not dismissive.)
> Normally, when you build CPython on Linux or macOS, several system paths are hardcoded into the binary. This is fine if you're building and installing Python on a single machine, but it's a problem if you want to pre-build Python and then distribute it to other machines.

> So, for example, when you download Python on Linux (e.g., from python.org), what you're actually downloading is the CPython source, which is then built on your machine.

But python.org does provide prebuilt macOS binaries. How is that accomplished and why doesn't whatever they're doing generalize to Linux?
I think it's intentional. A lot of creators of computer display technology (physical) and computer vision based algorithms use a "standard image set" to present their invention's performance against a common benchmark, like the image of "Lena" (1). There's also standard benchmark images of a parrot, a tea pot, a bowl of fruit and a rabbit that I see often.

If this is necessary, LLMs have officially jumped the shark. And I do wonder how much of this "necessary logic" has already been added to ChatGPT and other platforms, where they've offloaded the creation of logic-based heuristics to Mechanical Turk participants, and like the old meme, AI unmasked is a bit of LLM and a tonne of IF, THEN statements.

I get the vibe VC money is being burned with promises of an AGI that may never eventuate and there's no clear path to.
I think you're massively underestimating the development cost, of the number of people who would actually purchase a higher vram card at a higher price.

You'd need hundreds of thousands of units to really make much of a difference.
Kids dad here.

Those arrays were for a past version. I nudged him towards randomly generated question/answers. That's currently dead code.

"utah2" -- haha, his variable names are sometimes not useful here. We visited Utah months before he wrote the game, so that inspired that variable name I guess! This version I wasn't nitpicking not he code as long as it worked. The bar higher for the next version.

.. and yes, spelling issues are top thing to fix for next version! At the moment, he can code better than he can spell.

Thanks for taking a peek under the hood :)
A hair dresser I went to years ago switched to working out of her home instead of a salon because she said she was concerned about formaldehyde exposure. She told me Brazilian blowouts and other treatments and dyes have heaps of formaldehyde.

While "standardized" many implementations were so buggy to be unusable - we needed >4gb pcie mappings for a development board, and finding motherboards that actually worked was a PITA well into 2012 (when I left that project).
> DDR5 can barely operate with four ranks per channel, at severely reduced speeds.

That is objectively false. See, for instance, V-color’s threadripper RAM[0]. If 96GB quad-rank modules @ 6000Mhz in octo-channel counts as “barely operating” maybe we have different definitions of operation requirements.

As a side note, their quad-channel 3-rank RAM [1] hits 8000MHz, out of the box. Admittedly only 24GB modules, but still.

it's about culture. is Jira a tool to help us along the way to get us to achieve our goals, or are we slaves to the ticketing system in service of itself. some process is good, but when that becomes an end unto itself, that sinks everything. tools are to make our lives better, we're not here to make things better for our tools
Probably. The Iranians certainly have the technical capability to detect those satellites, at least well enough to calculate the orbital parameters. So it would be safe to assume that they pass that intelligence on to the various terrorist groups that they sponsor.
If it was like other poetry generation programs of the 80’s and 90’s, it was generating a lot more crap than gold. People definitely were picking out the most cohesive examples, and probably even improving on them themselves.
Maybe this isn't the best place for feedback, but I was inspired to give this a go. Sadly it didn't work out. First error was:

sh: line 1: Application: command not found

By visiting https://new.phoenixframework.org/test-elixir-app, I could see the proper output:

Application name must start with a letter and have only lowercase letters, numbers and underscore

So I changed to test_elixir_app, and got this output:

I've worked for my own company for 30-some years. Occasionally I consult for a big corporate.

Each consulting gig reminds me why I'm not cut out for that world. It's everything coding is not. But when a corporate hires me to write some code, I understand that the corporate BS is the job .

I still love coding. But working for a corporate is not coding (at any level). Coding is what you get to do when there's a gap between meetings.

I know jobs are hard to get right now. But you might find more joy working in a small company, with people who already fit your preferred tech choices. I will say there's somewhat less job security and a lot less pay, but equally there's no bs and there's more freedom to actually code.
> JSX is a really elegant way to avoid templating, but we're back to templating with HTMX

Not necessarily. There are libraries in all mainstream languages that let you embed HTML generation directly in your backend server itself, without using a templating engine. Some examples:

Scala: https://com-lihaoyi.github.io/scalatags/

Actually they kinda do go away. Have you ever tried Ruby on Rails? It does all this out of the box.

> practicing computation is important in math education

no, 100% no on this -- we have computers that can compute for us, and we have since the 50s

the problem that this company is perpetuating is the idea that humans need to learn how to compute, we don't

we need to learn how to identify that a problem we're facing has a mathematical solution and how to translate the problem into an equation that a computer can solve for us

The full story of his journey is here:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42313045

Specifically for JS? I didn't give him anything material actually. I gave him a serious of small challenges starting with: "write a function that displays hello world on the screen" ... he already know HTML/CSS and he talked to Gemini to figure out the best way to use a function in HTML and it guided him towards JS. He give me a solution in a JS console, with a function that he executed.

Then I built on that with more challenges. He continued to work with Gemini. He talks about how he uses Gemini in his blog post, it's an interesting learning technique he found.

So mostly he's learning by doing. He's figuring out "how to do X" either using a hint from me or just by asking Gemini which gives him some guidance. Then he has to figure out how to apply the hint/samples to his actual game. His IDE has no LLM built-in, he uses the LLM from the browser.

> Vaccines are for pre exposure.

That is correct for most vaccines. However, it's different for rabies. The vaccine is also effective post exposure (as long as it is given soon enough). Human rabies immune globulin (HRIG) is also part of the post exposure treatment, but the vaccine is critical here too.

Also of note: if one has received a course of rabies vaccinations as part of a pre-exposure treatment (high risk jobs, certain types of travel, etc), then the post exposure treatment consists of only a few extra doses of the vaccine (and not HRIG).

I travel to relatively remote places, and hike in those places, so I decided to pay for a course of the rabies vaccine a few years ago (the three dose course). If I do ever end up with a feral dog bite, for example, that makes treatment much easier - the vaccine is much more available globally than HRIG, and the timeframe is more relaxed if you've had the pre-exposure jabs. Granted, that immunity eventually wanes, so I'll occasionally need a booster to maintain enough protection.

There was no “death panel” involved with Archie Battersbee though. He had a Glasgow coma level of 3, the literal lowest (which is proportional to survival odds), and didn’t even have a pulse for over 40 minutes. He was most likely dead by the time his mother found him, and was certainly dead at the hospital. If memory serves his brainstem was even beginning to suffer from necrosis before they pulled treatment.
My 7 year old loves it! He likes the animations, how the creatures get the questions wrong sometimes, and the math questions. Questions were - why do we play a wizard guy (he wants to play as different characters), why does the scorpion drop a star, why are some of the moves not available / charged up yet
I can't help but reflect that everything causes cancer. I was reading the other day about the influence of hot tea on throat cancers, for example.

With that in the background, I'm struggling to distill this article into a "so what". The article suggests the EPA limit is one incidence of cancer in a million people per lifetime. If they've underestimated the risk from formaldeyhyde by one or two orders of magnitude I'm still not seeing what the problem here is. Odds of prostate cancer in men is double digits over a lifetime. This seems like something of a non-issue. If anything, if formaldehyde is industrially useful, the EPA is probably doing the right thing bending the rules. We literally don't know how to sustain modern society without some deaths from industrial processes.

Consider the context into which the amendment was written; a very bloody war between Crown loyalists and separatists (all British subjects, mind you) had just been completed. The idea of a United States citizen was still a dream. That individuals owned and operated their own weapons was the sole reason the separatists won.

I'll point to a more recent example: the Los Angeles riots in 1992. Koreatown was protected by gun toting citizens, literally fending off the mob. (Whether we categorize the mobs as tyrannical is more pedantic than anything else, the men with weapons maintained their agency because of the threat of lethal force. Guns against a government yield the same end, maintaining agency when others may try to take it from you.)
