Like I have said, Intel Skymont is a very close match for Cortex-X4, not for Cortex-X925.

With Cortex-X925 Arm has made a big jump in core size, departing from the previous Cortex-X series, which has allowed a good increase in IPC, greatly improving the results of single-threaded benchmarks, but this has been paid by a much worse performance per area, making Cortex-X925 completely unsuitable for multi-threaded applications. Therefore Cortex-X925, like also Intel Lion Cove, is useful only when it is accompanied by smaller cores that handle the multi-threaded workloads.

So unlike with previous Arm cores, Cortex-X925 has not made Cortex-X4 obsolete, as demonstrated e.g. in MediaTek Dimensity 9400, which includes 1 Cortex-X925 to get good single-threaded benchmark scores, together with 3 Cortex-X4 to get good multi-threaded benchmark scores.

It is not clear which are the intentions of Arm for the evolution of the Cortex-X series. The rumors are that the next core configuration for smartphones is intended to be like that already deployed by Qualcomm with its custom cores, i.e. to have a big core that is 3 times bigger than the medium-size core and to use 2 big Cortex-X930 cores + 6 medium-size Cortex-A730 cores, for an even split in die area between the big cores and the medium-size cores.

For this to work well, Cortex-X930 must provide a good improvement in performance per area over Cortex-X925, because otherwise it would be hard to justify a 2+6 arrangement, when in the same die area one could have implemented a 1+9 configuration, with the same single-threaded performance, but with better multi-threaded performance.

I believe that a small SoC with only 4 Skymont cores and Xe2 graphics would provide performance, battery lifetime and cost for a smartphone that would be completely competitive with any existing Qualcomm, MediaTek or Samsung SoC.

This would be less obvious in a benchmark like GeekBench 6, where Cortex-X925 or Qualcomm Oryon L would show a greater single-threaded score, but the difference would not be great enough to actually matter in real usage. Also for multi-threaded performance measured by GB6, only 4 Skymont cores would seem to be a little slower than the current flagships, but that would be misleading, because 4 Skymont cores could run at full speed for long durations within the smartphone power constraints, while the current 8-core flagships can never run all 8 cores at the 100% performance recorded by GB6, without overheating after a short time.

An 8-core Skymont SoC would be excellent for a cheap tablet with long battery lifetime and great performance, even if again, such a configuration would be penalized by GB6, which favors having 1 huge core, like Cortex-X925, for the ST score, together with an over-provisioned set of medium-size cores, which can run all together only for the short time required to complete the GB6 sub-benchmarks, but in real prolonged usage must never be all completely busy at the same time, in order to avoid overheating.
What are you referring to? The majority of news media are left leaning.
I really like the idea and it aligns with my thinking. Its missing some basic docs though
I have been using / fanboi'ing Perplexity since January 2022; overall, I am disappointed in the direction their product has been heading. While it is still the first URL I visit when I want apprentice-level help, I don't think this will be true for much longer.

If anybody at perplexity wants my more-direct feedback (beyond what I've submitted via your platform's conversations), my postal is listed in /hn/bio (I do not use email, so if your platform eventually `requires` this it's an immediate disusership from me dawg).

Am I the only one who never tried Haskell but who when reading discussion about it ends up thinking real-world (with GHC extensions) Haskell has way too much (sometimes historical) cruft? It really detracts me from it.
I don’t think US government controls social media like china, but after the constant news about all the social media CEO’s hanging out with the president I am not surprised many people start to get a feeling that something is up.
Agree completely. I used to allow every programmer to set up their own dev environment. Inevitably we’d have things that worked for one person but not another, and low confidence in deploying to production.

Eventually I forced everyone to work with a controlled dev environment on a remote server. They can work over ssh with command line tools or VSCode. Dev environments get rigorously maintained to mirror production. I got some grumbling about latency (everyone works remotely from around the world), but that turns out to present much less friction than the almost-daily debugging sessions and dealing with MacOS vs Windows vs Linux inconsistencies.
I like Haskell, but I think it suffers from the same issues preventing most lisps to gain any traction: every codebase is different and reinvents its own DSL or uses different extensions.

Lispers hailing macros and metaprogramming cannot understand that power is also the very thing that makes jumping from project to project difficult, I have no intention of relearning your cleverly designed DSL or new extensions.

There's a reason why Java or PHP have plenty of widely used killer software, while monocle-wielding lispers and haskellers have very little to show after many decades.

It's not FP being the issue, it's just that their power attracts crowds interested in code more than the features/business/product.

I don't blame them, I love Haskell and Racket but I think very few teams can scale and make the compromise worth it.
The Australian open runs for two weeks, solely in January, so you can subscribe for a single month. ~$12 is roughly the price of a single beer at a game. If you can get 2 weeks of entertainment for $12, I think that’s reasonable.

What does that mean? Twiter doesn’t switch my tabs on its own, neither on desktop or

>and even then you also have all the random notifications from people you don't follow.

I only get notifications from people I don’t follow if someone likes my tweets or they reply
Well that was more positive than I had expected from the title.

From what I understand it, affluent Romans typically moved back and forth between countryside villas in the summer, and a smaller residence in the city during the winter.

Also Roman economics were not really very local. The Romans had a large road network and were very mobile and traded even farther. You have for example Pelagius, a figure in church history, who was born in Britain and died in Egypt.
Yes, a trap a lot of HD remakes and fan-made HD mods fall into is that they upgrade sprite or texture resolution but keep animation framerate or geometry the same, which creates a janky/disjointed look that I can't stand.

Lovely article!
Are they wrong? Tiktok being available again does depend on Trump and Trump alone.

It sounds like an authoritarian regime because it is one.
At a company selling a B2B platform, we had an internal extension used to teach how to write extensions that drew an interactive pet on screen, similar to the one in this VS Code extension. It accidentally got deployed to one client, which caused a complete company shutdown because lots of people suddenly reported being hit by a virus to their internal IT team, causing company-wide panic.

I'm not sure what the lesson here is.
Does anyone know of a more semantically meaningful way of chunking code in a generalizable way? Token count seems like it'd leave out meaningful context, or include unrelated context.
I also feel like this can be done in a few lines of shell script.

I've had a particularly bad breakup with my ex-girlfriend who I met on Twitter (I was the one responsible for the falling out), and I had to delete my Twitter account for two reasons:

1. The open, "town-square" nature of Twitter meant that it was easy to run into each other again, and she was feeling uncomfortable sharing space with me.

2. This was taking a huge toll on my mental health at the time, because just being on Twitter (or any of the many Twitter clones, for that matter) was reminding me of my relationship with her, just because of how the algorithm worked.

I still think Twitter provided value for me as a startup founder, for marketing and networking purposes. But It wasn't really matter of if it provided value or not; Twitter was driving me to death in the most literal sense of the word possible. To choose life, I chose to leave Twitter.

As someone whose startup builds social platforms, I am extremely turned off by the idea of "public square" models for the internet, after these incidents. We shouldn't aim to get everyone into a single feed, where you are given a curated feed, designed to engage you for as long as possible for the whims of advertisers, as opposed to the utility of the users.
But that is precisely what I was talking about. You do not seem to find any commonality between censoring different categories of websites or apps. As far as I understand it, "media", "gambling", "porn", "politics" are quite common categories when researching (and defining) online censorship. See, for instance, https://censoredplanet.org/censoredplanet

You say "banned", but that is not quite the same as "censored". Just try and search, you will see the US "bans" and China or Iran "censor". Perhaps one regime's "censorship" is experienced as "lawfully banned" from within the context of their legal and cultural system.

And no, I don't see why would I keep my edgy observations to myself. That would be self-censorship :)
Yes. Negatively.

Not sure analysis is needed. Algorithmic feeds are fucked and impact you negatively. All of them!

You have no real control over what you see, they're ephemeral, nobody has a shared experience, and that's _only a few_ things that are fucked.

I’ve been thinking about this lately for my publish-by-email app, Pagecord (https://pagecord.com). I’ve made it open source (https://github.com/lylo/pagecord) but I’ve been thinking it would be really cool if paying customers had a stake in it somehow. The Subvert model is interesting for sure.
Sorry if the article is misleading.

The first increase of the memory limit was not 4G, but something roughly around 300Mb/400Mb, and the OOM did happen again with this setting.

Thus leading to a 2nd increase to 4Gi to be sure the app would not get OOM killed when the behavior get triggered. We needed the app to be alive/running for us to investigate the memory profiling.

Regarding the increase of 400MiB, yeah it is a lot, and it was a surprise to us too. We were not expecting such increase. There are, I think 2 reasons behind this.

1. This service is a grpc server, which has a lot of code generated, so lots of symbols

2. we compile the binary with debug symbols and a flag to compress the debug symbols sections to avoid having huge binary. Which may part be of this issue.
> a tool I can’t even pronounce

jazzyjackson provided the pronunciation guide in a comment above:

> forˈd͡ʒe.jo, to my midwestern ear, "4 Jay yo"

It's totally OK for a project to use words from a foreign language. "Linux" is derived from Finnish Linus (/ˈliːnʊs/) and pronounced /ˈlɪn.əks/, unlike the English Linus - /lɑ́jnəs/.

IMHO Forgejo should have the IPA pronunciation spelled out on the landing page.

> this is why I also don’t use DuckDuckGo

Just how silly "Google" sounded when it first popped up? How Torvalds joked that he named "git" after himself? "Bash" is a play on "Bourne" and "born again"? Silly names are a part of the hacker culture, remaining playful despite the product having huge impact brings color to people's lives.
So then Hamas will peacefully coexist with Israel in perfect peace and harmony, right?

FAANG Employees: Are You Bullish on Jobs That Monetize User Data?
Lots of ideas above, rather speculative.

Overall, the claim above, as written, is a rather generalized prediction, not an inevitability.

Enterprise buying power and expectations create various pressures, sure. But there are other pressures and factors that need to be accounted for such as demands from other types of customers and the company’s expertise with what has worked well so far (simpler is better, compared to Jira).

Entropy is a law of physics, sure, but the ways and degrees to which it manifests in software is far from obvious or inevitable.

We live in a world of possible future scenarios, not of narrative-based certainties.

I predict GitHub Issues will remain considerably simpler than Jira for the next five years at least. As code analysis tools improve (traditional static analysis as well as LLM-based), I think we will see a lot of experimentation in this space.
>Your boss is presumably a high-value employee at a prosperous company.

The company he worked at in Germany was even more prosperous yet had worse healthcare there. What's the deal?
Despite the downvotes, this is entirely accurate.

The privacy / data protection angle on TikTok is a red herring.

There are other ways China, or anyone else, including any one of us, can get their hands on vast amounts of personal data about anybody. It just costs more than operating a profitable social media platform.

All you need to do is flash a few bucks and talk nicely to a data broker, or Meta (remember Cambridge Analytica?) and there's nothing the US Government or you can do about it, because it's entirely legal. The minimal barriers that are in place to protect the data going into "wrong" hands are trivial to bypass.

And if that doesn't work, the next level up in difficulty is hack the same organizations. China has made an industry out of that.
The game Marvel Snap is also offline in the US due to being part of the Bytedance game publisher arm.
The real question is: is this from lack of effort or simply from NVidia's headstart? Will it get better?
Because during the Cold war information was able to be more efficiently split up between different mutually independent spheres. Now it's more of a free for all because of global Internet access. So yes, you could call it a "cold war", but it's really a more generalized version of that concept.
Are you thinking of labels?

Having used both exclusively for warhammer and blood bowl content the instagram algorithm has been horrible in my very anecdotal experience. It keeps pushing content I have absolutly no interest in, where as TikTok only pushes warhammer and blood bowl content + adds.

Happy to see Rust being used for this. I tried using it for some toy implementation of a Matrix federation server [0], and there's lots of zero-copy/zero-allocation optimization tricks Rust allows, if one is willing to spend that time on it.

I'd really wish to see an official non-Python OSS version though, to make it easier to run on a Raspberry Pi or whatever other tiny homelabs people usually host things on. When I tried Synapse, it essentially ate the whole memory and was constantly making the fan turn on.

OP maligns people for not knowing what it means, but it seems like it’s a nebulous term with no concrete meaning.
HN is heavily echo chamber. Just because some people agree/disagree on technical topics doesn't mean you're getting a true diversity of opinions. Like, say, from the 99.99...% of the population that don't know what an int is.
Maybe, but it is not known that he did for that particular reason.
The sales assistants in department stores on the other hand... different story.

In the 80s stores often had home computers for display and for customers to try them out. Much like they have tablets and phones on display now. Kids being kids used to play pranks with these machines and one way to hang a Commodore 64 was POKE 1,0 (or POKE 1,.). The store employees hated it because they had to come and reset the machines all the time.

For me POKE 1,0 will always be burned into my mind as a dangerous frightening command, hence the " Oh, nooo".
I do not have any information if Edsger Dijstra held similar feelings and whether they contributed to his hate for BASIC.
That isn't just Facebook. It's literally everyone. This is an entrepreneur site. Why are there no one trying to replicate the algorithm? Seriously?

I travel full-time and work remotely, for over a decade. I have lost my phone once. Both Apple and Android phones sync passwords and ssh keys (if you set it up) to their encrypted cloud services. If you get a new phone everything comes back.

I put my most crucial keys and backup codes on a biometric-locked USB key that I protect along with my passport. I have never needed to use it, but in case I lose my phone and can’t get into my cloud account I have that.

I use a Yubikey for 2FA where supported, I have two, one handy and one secured with my passport.
It has absolutely made things more difficult not having distinct spheres of information with well defined boundaries. It's genuinely made things much more difficult to plan about. The global Internet absolutely has made a lot of people upset for a lot of reasons that make intuitive sense.

That's what growing conservative "anti globalist" movements backed by national security elements are really about. Not ultimately immigration or racism or tax cuts (that's how you get the tubes on board), but about how the inability to keep civilians out of information conflicts has made running countries incredibly difficult.

This is one area where China absolutely has the right approach and we need to wake up about what it means in the public rather than complain that we can't scroll silly waste of time videos all the time. The US public is incredibly uneducated about this concept and why it poses a threat, so the discussion needs to be had.

I think we should be far more critical of American internet companies as well and quite a few of them should probably be banned because they are creating the same sort of problem w.r.t how we can practically organize a functioning society. That's the unfortunate thing, is a bunch of libertarians in silicon valley a while back decided to invent a business model that could cause a global war.
