I guess it's nostalgic for some but even as a kid back when the chain first rolled out I recognized right away that the animatronics were low rent versions of earlier Disney animatronics that were much better (albeit, significantly more complex and thus more expensive).

I guess if you're a toddler it's still a big, colorful, moving stuffed animal that talks, which might seem fascinating. But for an older kid it wasn't entertaining or engaging while the Disney animatronics still were.

Reflecting now on why one worked on me and the other didn't, I think the lack of variable speed motion had a lot to do with it because ease-in/out can add so much life and expression.
There were even rumors about "IGP is all you need" and Intel "canceling" Nvidia by eliminating PCIe so there would be nowhere to attach a discrete GPU. (Intel did cancel nForce.) In retrospect that was completely ridiculous.
This looks fantastic! I also rely a lot on CTRL-`-` for navigating to past locations.
Maybe early (say 94-99?). To some degree that happened. Most computers using an integrated GPU at this point, it’s mostly gamers or people who really need the power that have one on an expansion card.

Of course it’s not actually the CPU doing the work, it’s just in the same package.

Part of the difference is that audio can only get so good. But graphics don’t have much of a limit yet. We kept adding more colors and higher resolutions and higher refresh rates, more polygons, and even a second display for true 3-D.

It’s the true embarrassingly parallel problem we’re throwing more silicon at it just keeps making it better.

By the time Intel decided to get “serious“ and develop Larrabee, they clearly saw the market was there and would keep growing otherwise they wouldn’t have even bothered.

And honestly, whether it was on the same package as the CPU or an actual part of it the way normal vector units or the branch predictor are, who would benefit more from having a good graphics story to go on their GPU than the king of CPUs. They could use their advantages to just further cement their moat.

This looks like plain old enum in plain c.

Did I miss something that makes it remarkable?
It's not 20 years. Just 12 years ago Intel was launching Ivy Bridge on 22nm and was absolutely on top of the world.

It's true they've completely fallen off the pace. But people tend to forget how rapidly this happened. Even as late as the semi-aborted 2018 launch of Cannon Lake it seemed like it was just a routine burp they'd correct with a process respin. Then TSMC quietly reached parity with 7nm, shipped 5nm which was a better process, and by 2021 Apple had jumped ship and Intel was falling behind even AMD.

The disaster happened fast. Boards of Directors aren't that agile.
When the US government wants to torture people from another country, it gets around legal protections by having the CIA illegally fly them to a third country. Many of those flights went via Ireland. See e.g. https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/wikileaks-memo-tells-o...
The big problem for them is AMD. Anytime they do something stupid (Itanium) they have a competitor right there to take advantage of it.

Same problem IBM had. They didn’t like people using “their“ PC architecture, so they decided to make the MCA bus and other proprietary stuff. Force everyone to do what they want.

IBM‘s AMD was Compaq and all the clone makers. They all got together and used their power to prevent the market from being screwed up by IBM.

I could really see Intel wanting to make that kind of move but it never would’ve worked in reality.
For actual speakers, you could use a second of the same type of speaker as a microphone, and assume the losses are similar, do a slow sine sweep through, and just divide all the dB values in half.

Obviously this will only work if there's a passive crossover network, and nothing active in the speakers.
This is not actually that difficult if you just want the basics. I have a project that implements just the x11 key & mouse events, and the shared memory extension in 400 lines of Rust. Was worth it for me since it eliminated dependency on libx11 and libc, which removed a dependency on something like 800,000 lines of code across those two libraries. (Determined by a basic cloc on each library source. Actually compiled code for a specific architecture would probably be less than that, but still orders of magnitude more than 400.)
I created a GPT session using the same prompts they used, and it acted slightly similar, however there was a lot of differences.

doesn't mean it isn't OpenAI, but I feel like it's a different LLM.

I worked on breaking it for a while and finally triggered it's fail safe with messages saying I'm going to self-harm which allowed me to break through enough that it started giving standard outputs like "my knowledge as of my last update". I was however take aback when I asked it for support websites and it's #1 result was 'Betterhelp', while the ChatGPT instance I created using it's prompts gave valid sources like National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, Crisis Text Line, 7 Cups, SAMHSA Helpline.
It does if you're not colorblind!

Google's consistently good about this in its UIs by leaning on iconography, while Apple tends to lean on colored elements, such as text labels and containers, that only sometimes work for colorblind folks. Neither company is perfect, however.

It very nearly is.

Yes. The literal 'iota' keyword. There is no equivalent to this in C.
Apple has already shipped remote attestation with Safari and Cloudflare has been working to standardise their test release of this scheme as a web standard. It's only a matter of time before remote attestation starts replacing CAPTCHA thanks to the advances in AI.

The worst part will probably be that any hardware backed attestation mechanism will need to blacklist entire ranges of devices once scrapers and other bots find a mechanism to mass produce attestation results, the same way a dumped key from a bluray player carries the risk of killing all future bluray player functionality from devices with that model.

WebAuthn is pretty useless for this purpose as far as my understanding of it goes (as you can pretty much emulate all of it, except if the website has a hardware whitelist that'll eventually block a lot of legitimate users as well). It's harder to bypass remote attestation mechanisms, though, as they're actually meant to provide security against bots.
Because Intel fired Gelsinger, I suspect that in 18 months, there will be no US based foundry doing advanced logic technology development. Maybe that’s better for the industry because all the money will be concentrated on one or two competently run foundries (TSMC and Samsung) but it’s unfortunate for Intel fab employees who have both ultra specialized skills and will be stigmatized for coming from a failed semiconductor manufacturer.
I was paid to do code analysis on medical systems coming up to Y2K. Yes, there were Y2K related bugs which would have munged patient data, including exam data and results. Yes, we analyzed every point in the code having anything to do with dates and fixed the issue. Yes, this needed to be done to avoid injury to people. It was a months long effort due to the size of the code base.

I went to see the film tonight. I went into the theater not knowing what to expect, but keeping an open mind since this was a "Kyle" film. Meh. It's goofy, mildly entertaining, and well, just like a film from before Y2K. But I somehow managed to enjoy it.

I think the second half of the article is the main catalyst lurking behind this trend. Match has little care other than monopolizing the industry and using users as profit sources. They have blueprint patterns and user flows that they copy between their services. Users can feel that they are not using a service that is inspired.

I think the best example is when match took over OKCupid. Before the takeover, it was designed around long-form profiles building deep sets of questions and answers that could be, compared and contrasted between users. It was fun. There were many dozens of little features on that site that were fun to explore and were innovative for the space.

After the takeover, 90% of the site was stripped away in short order. All the personality type stuff, all of the questions and answers, all of the matching engines, most of the long-form profile features, etc. All gone. Replaced with a tinder clone that was only half functional, sucked for maximum revenue and left to die so that the match groups main revenue drivers could continue to grow without competition.

There is a huge opportunity cost of lost innovation because match swoops in and extinguishes any bright upstarts. Or at least they get most of them, and I'm sure the target list continues to grow.
If you're on site foo, then go to bar, then baz, then bar again. The history GUI, whether the sidebar or the history manager (Ctrl-Shift-h), is not going to show foo, bar, baz, bar. It's going to show foo, baz, bar. The first time you went to bar is hidden. It's present in the DB, but no part of the GUI AFAICT is going to mention a visit to bar between visits to foo and baz.
Enshittification by the major platforms' owner seems to have a lot to do with it.

Interesting site/company, though it takes really long to load and render. Maybe 'HNified' ?

I don't even believe that. If you show your grandma both of them and asked which one she would guess is more secure, what do you think her guess would be?

Certainly neither is perfect, but unless I'm missing something obvious, there is literally nothing about blue that conveys security more than green. It's just an arbitrary choice Apple made, and how the heck is an Android user supposed to know about it? Whereas a lock is kind of self-explanatory...
And simply lying, in various contexts.
I would say

would be

> Code that isn't tested doesn't work

Testing is running though but that's not the same as eliminating dead code. If you're writing a library/API, you might not personally use the code or hit the edge cases but other users will. If they aren't tested they don't work is my experience.
Ha, no definitely not. Intel Capital invests in lots of things, and doesn't throw its weight around like that at all.
Windows has had TPM-backed authentication mechanisms baked in for a while now. For devices lacking biometrics, you authenticate with your Windows PIN/password, use a phone, or use a yubikey or similar device. Or, on any OS, you can use addons like Bitwarden to take over WebAuthn for you.

How would the wind sound different in the morning versus in the evening?
I'm glad this is something we're starting to figure out. The more something you read or hear makes you immediately mad, the less you should share or repeat it without additional verification. Our instinct is of course the opposite, which is why some are looking at Free Speech as a hindrance when attempting to address bad faith reporting and demagoguery.

But our instinct when someone else has more food than us is to go bash them over the head with a rock and take it... however, we've spent great effort to raise all children not to do that, for obvious reasons. So the answer has to be that we preserve Free Speech, knowing that misinformation and demagogues will exist, but broadly train our critical thinking to override those instincts to the end that we can effectively divide truth from lies.

We've had millennia to suppress our aggressive tendencies to the point where civilization is possible. But the retweet button is, like, 20 years old? We'll get there, but probably on generational timescales.

If it’s designed for hand authoring it should support an ISO8601 date format; mere mortals cannot author numeric timestamps without tools.
Lately I’ve come up with a heuristic that I think anyone can use:

Before reposting something, ask yourself “have I heard about this website before today (or before this news event/cycle)?” If you haven’t, google the thing you just read about, and see if you can find an article from a source you’ve heard of before today.

This isn’t to say that mainstream news doesn’t get things wrong, they definitely do sometimes, but so much of the real garbage I see on social media is people all sharing the same post from some random site called like newsline.xyz or something. In fact there’s so much low hanging fruit like that that I think a large amount of disinformation would go away if people just checked if anyone at all was reporting the story other than the source they’re reading.
Ted Chiang's style reminded me of the short stories by Christopher Anvil [1].

It is used, just with the caveat in mind that it may exist when the derivative doesn't. It is usually called the symmetric derivative (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symmetric_derivative).
It/Uphold can automatically convert it to USD. You don't have to concern yourself with the intermediary form at all.
That's a terrible reasoning for requiring an extra toolchain.
Just store the ISO9601 date/time in a string. No need for special support on the format level.
After Stephen King’s Maximum Overdrive (IMDb 5.4). Which he directed. It was based on his short story called Trucks(1973). See also the song “Who Made Who” by AC/DC.
Articles like this are so easy to write after the event. It would be a lot more compelling of an article if it had been published a year ago and had instead predicted what was going to happen given what the author claimed was obvious at the time. Fact is Intel was in a really tough situation and Pat seemed to many (including many here) like the best candidate at the time to be able to turn things around, with the acknowledgement that the situation was dire and there might be nothing anyone could do to save it.
Because as much as we know saw stop works. No one wants to actually find out if works.

Do be careful, religion also divides countries, separates families and inherently promotes inequality by categorizing human beings into troughs to be tagged, labelled and consumed.
Before AI it was HPC that was obviously becoming huge. AI is the most recent and buzziest form of HPC, but people have been buying AI-style clusters for a while. The Knights [*] products were a great entry point into that market if they would just figure out the software of it. Knights [*] essentially had Atom cores with huge SIMD units, and fast forward to today, an AMD GPU is essentially a small scalar core attached to a huge SIMD unit.

IMO it seems like they had the Google problem: if you can't sell a billion units it has to be canceled.
I have encountered many systems that explicitly disallow “unexpected” JSON elements and such an approach would fail. This is particularly common when using JSON around API-like use cases.
There's also HJSON, which stands for Human JSON.

It has implementations in JavaScript, C#, C++, Go, Java, Lua, PHP, Python, Rust.
Most of your takeaway of what I wrote is simply a fabrication, and not at all what I was saying.

My main point was to note that the ruling only makes this particular act illegal for police officers. I'm not saying the police should have no authority beyond that of citizens.

The "unfortunate" part of civil asset forfeiture is that it is almost always abused for the benefit of the police at the expense of otherwise law-abiding citizens. You are correct that it has nothing to do with the court's statement, and that's ties into my first point.
I've lived in a few countries and the Aussie system is by far the best I've used.

I've also had that "so I've just come out of the doc's, how much do I owe?" at reception, only to be told "nope, you're good, see you in 3 months for your next checkup" shock.
I'm confused about your point about YAML being "strict superset of JSON" leading to being able to convert YAML to JSON.

If YAML is a strict superset, wouldn't that mean that YAML must have at least one feature that is not part of JSON? Wouldn't that make it impossible to define all YAML files as valid JSON?
Can you detail how you use NotebookLM for academic papers?

I've looked into it, but as usual with LLM I feel like I'm not getting much out of it due to lack of imagination when it comes to prompting.

Could you explain stigma? I don't understand why skilled workers would be looked down upon for business decisions out of their hands, being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Aren't there smaller fabs that would appreciate their skills?
This.

You can make special key names that are really directions for something.

You can make enrire k v pairs that are never used by anything that actually parses the json normally.

Argument was invalid as far as I can see and calling it "sorry it makes you sad" is, wow I don't even know where to begin with that.

> exploits where long strings purportedly take a long time to process -- because they are slow to construct!

That’s not an accurate characterization of ReDoS. Even if a long string is required to produce the behavior, the vulnerability is that the string takes a disproportionately long time to process even for its length, such that it becomes disproportionately easy to bring down a service. The CVE scoring system gives denial of service way too much weight if you ask me, but it’s not a fake vulnerability.
> Well what's more readable, .8675309 that is understood to have an implicit zero

I use it for personal scripts and it's been wonderful. I get to write more beautiful and concise configuration than any other format I've used.

If I were doing a professional project, I'd be hesitant to use it over something with more popularity and support. The syntax has so many variations two files can look like two totally different config languages, which is both cool and alarming.
It’s not about readability, it’s being realistic about other humans and making software robust in the presence of common, trivial, unambiguous “errors”.

Mobile phones were picking up a lot of steam by the mid 2000s, and it doesn’t seem like Intel bothered to even investigate developing more power efficient chips.

Seems like the leaders just lost the stomach for taking risks, a long time ago. No forays into mobile or GPUs, at least not in the billions of dollar and many years scale that was needed. No stomach to pay the competitive salaries necessary to compete with Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, Amazon, Netflix, etc for talent.
