I wonder if leaving some of the base intact would help with the artifact issue. Instead of cutting the teeth all the way through the whole section, leave a few mm solid on each side and reduce the height of the teeth to compensate the opposing base layer. It might add a bonus of hiding the teeth, too.
Yep. And the feature will probably be available on all AMD CPUs manufactured from here on.

Not so sure about that...

Yes the service plan is not mandatory, but when your car comes with an 8 year warrantee, then it's best to actually go and have the services performed, as it might pay off in the long term. A car is basically an amalgamation of consumable items. _Everything_ eventually wears out. To not specify some form of maintenance plan or schedule is absolute madness.

On all the cars that I've owned, there was a comprehensive "inspect" section that details things like lights, suspension, brakes, seals, exhaust/muffler etc etc. Many of the "inspect"s will then be things like check the brake pad wear, check the fluid levels,

It's in the manufacturer's best interest to inspect every inch of a new car as part of that service plan, so that they can find and fix any small issues that might become big and expensive issues down the line. Faults on cars compound over time, and something as innocuous as a low coolant level today could result in a grenaded engine down the line if not caught and rectified early enough.
The government does not make things cheaper, competition does. The government’s role is to protect competition. Otherwise companies will collude not to compete.
> I mean, how much gold is actually consumed by industry?

[0] indicates there's a demand of about 5000 tonnes of gold per year, with about 560 tonnes going into technology and electronics (the vast majority still going to jewellery). The total amount of gold in the world is about 212.500 tonnes according to [1], which is a cube of only 22x22 meters. [2] says about 3600 tonnes are mined per year and about 1200 tonnes is recycled/reused.

> why is NVDA still down 15% premarket?

Presumably because backorders will go down, production volume and revenue won't grow as fast, Nvidia will be forced to decrease their margins due to lower demand etc. etc.

Selling everything you make is an extremely low bar relative to Nvidia's current valuation because it assumes that Nvidia will be able to grow at a very fast pace AND maintain obscene margins for the next e.g. ~5 years AND will face very limited competition.
Indeed, wrapping around the end of VRAM is another thing that I had to fix in QEMU[1]. :)

> So the scrolling was documented, but perhaps not well enough.

That's certainly possible - 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration, as they say. However, the same video card features were present on a lot of 80s hardware and the basic techniques were used for side scroller games on other platforms as well, especially the Amiga with its excellent offloading of VRAM copies.

For example, Turrican II[2] was released around the same time as Keen. http://uridiumauthor.blogspot.com/2017/12/scrolling-on-amiga... says:

"to get the screen scrolling sideways [...] all we had to do was allocate a few extra bytes at the end of our buffer, as many as we wanted to scroll one pixel row sideways from one side of the map to the other, in fact, say 20x2x10 bytes, i.e. 400 bytes per buffer, not much at all."

"So, starting from top left, we start smooth scrolling by 1 pixel to the right. This is done with the hardware scroll X register. What it's really doing is throwing away the number of pixels you tell it, from 0 to 15, before it starts displaying the screen picture. Our screen buffers always support one more character wide and high than the screen is; because in 15 out of 16 cases that extra character row or column is partially visible."

"When you get to 16 pixels across you reset the Scroll X position to 0, and add one word (16 bits/pixels to the pointers to the start of the buffer display [...] At this point we need to build the incoming column of characters to the right"

Well, you say just that. It even demonstrates a beginning of business acumen.

Everyone does it, recruiters aren’t naive. Once I became old enough to hire people, I understood it’s ok (depending on the audience, beware) to say “I can start on Monday but I’ll take two weeks of holidays during the same month, because it’s already planned.” Better have employees who are mature enough to take care of their worklife balance, than employees who burn out and end up grumpy. An employee was relocating and I told him during the first month he shouldn’t work more than 6hrs/day and use the rest to settle his private life (rental, bank, insurances, child care, etc.).

If that's your only concern, the I'd say the model is a huge success.
HR departments are constantly looking at "market rates" for jobs which is a fancy way of saying they share salary data or get it from ADP and have much more information about what people are willing to accept.

At hiring time, they are willing to pay market rate (or some percentage of market rate) to get people in the door. Once you are employed, they don't care anymore and will let excellent people slowly fall behind market compensation with 1% to 2% raises.

When those employees get frustrated and leave for 20% bump in comp, the companies seem fine replacing them with a new hire at market rate. So now, they have a new employee making market rate, they have to train the new employee for months before they are productive and they've taken on the risk of an unknown vs. just giving the existing employee a raise to market rate. It doesn't make sense unless you want to telegraph the message that employees are fungible and you don't really care about people.

Norway is divided into 5 power zones/regions (south, east, west, mid, north).

The northern zone is not completely detached from the rest, but the the transfer capacity is very poor, and thus lots of power that goes to the northern zones actually gets imported from Sweden. The northern zone has sort of been shielded from the export cable, and still pay rates which are close to the "old days".

Now, when the gov. planned for these cables, a big selling point was that IF Norway was to need extra energy, these cables would make it easier to import from other countries.

Wat has happened, though, is that the energy crisis in Europe has made it very profitable to sell our energy to them, and make Norwegian households/customers compete against the foreign buyers. So say in the west region, where people were used to pay on average 0.12 NOK / kWh one year, suddenly they faced bills with 2.6 NOK /kWh - or a 20x increase.

Of course the gov. did implement programs to subsidize the bills ("strømstøtte"), but they were still high enough for people to feel it in their pocketbooks.

Another factor which MAY have played a role in the increased demand, is that we've had lots of green projects which have been quite energy expensive, like making our oil rigs electric (rather than using gas to produce electricity). I'm honestly not too much in the loop on that though, but it is a popular populist argument you see all the time, often in combination with the export cables.

But in either case, it has become such a hot potato, and the populist party/parties have embraced the anti-export cables stance.

While Mattercraft has some drag and drop elements, it's predominantly a development environment for content, featuring TypeScript and NPM support. So it's a bit like a 'Unity for the web'. Many of the features (e.g. physics, particles) are provided as optional additional NPM modules. The 3D text support is included in the base 3D module because it only adds a few kb and Mattercraft's built-in bundler doesn't bundle it if your project doesn't use it.

Yeah, that "banking cabal" includes a heap of checks and balances that at least on paper stop financial crimes like scams, money laundering, market manipulation, insider trading, and they add guarantees like the relative stability of value, interest rates, and compensation if your bank does end up going bankrupt.

There is no doubt in my mind that these incidents are done with intent. My understanding is that these ships are essentially dragging their anchor across the seabed in vulnerable areas, causing the cables to snap.

H800s were made to match Biden's export restrictions. They were banned in late 2023 but a lot were sold to China.

But unlikely for a tiny company like High-Flyer/Deepseek (160 employees).

> modularisation is an approach to software construction that I generally tend to avoid - as a human writing code I just find it confusing and high overhead

How baffling.

Anyone who avoids modularisation or considers it 'overhead' has never worked on a large system; or, has only worked on small over-engineered projects.

In large projects, it is physically impossible to 'be across' everything that's happening in the code.

The only, and I do mean only way to work effectively in a code base like this is to become familiar with a small part of it, clearly identify the boundaries of 'this part' and make sure that your changes happen only with that context where you:

- understand the side effects

- understand the domain

- can work effectively.

That is what modularisation is.

It is not 'making an NPM package for lpad'; the rough size of 'code you can keep track of' is very obvious to most people; when the code gets bigger than that you need to break it up into modules with clearly defined boundaries.

You then learn the boundaries.

The boundaries are smaller than the code.

You can therefore work effectively by understanding a subset of the code (my module + the boundaries of the modules I interact with) which is strictly < (my module + the content of the modules I interact with).

...

Amazingly, the same thing applies to LLMs that applies to people!

For small projects, you can just go in and do whatever you like and it'll be fine; for larger ones, you have to split it into smaller parts and do each part independently.

Absolutely right... but, surely not surprising to anyone?

...

Here's a pro-tip for you LLM work:

You can easily pick the size to use for modules based on the volume of code inside it.

Compare the size and complexity of the API for interacting with the module (class, crate, whatever) with the implementation details. I use 'lines of code + documentation + examples for the LLM to use it' as my vague metric.

If you're doing an 'lpad' and the implementation is <= the size of the API, don't bother to make it a module. You're wasting your time.

When the implementation gets ~10x the size of the API, split it.

It ain't rocket science. LLMs are good at writing glue code from well defined APIs.
There's no need. Just tell them that you're keeping tabs on the job market and would switch for a compelling offer. It's up to them whether they have one for you.

From the SiFive website [1]

> The Performance P550 scales up to four-core complex configurations while delivering 30% higher performance in less than half the area of a comparable Arm® Cortex®-A75.

Dylan Patel wasn't impressed by these comparisons with A75 [2]

> @SiFive is claiming half the area and higher perf/GHz, but they are using 7nm and 100ns memory latency. Choosing to compare to the 10nm A75 on S845, notorious for its high latency at over 200ns. Purposely ignoring iso-node or other A75 comparisons.

And this analysis seems to be borne out in this Chips and Cheese post.

> As a step along that journey, P550 feels more comparable to one of Arm’s early out-of-order designs like Cortex A57. By the time A75 came out, Arm already accumulated substantial experience in designing out-of-order CPUs. Therefore, A75 is a well polished and well rounded core, aside from obvious sacrifices required for its low power and thermal budgets. P550 by comparison is rough around the edges.

So what to make of SiFive's claims? It seems quite an important claim / comparison.

They rioted and attacked the gate imposing enough threat the president had to flee to a bunker. They also assaulted the security there.

From the article you clearly didn’t read:

> The decision to physically move the President came as protesters confronted Secret Service officers outside the White House for hours on Friday – shouting, throwing water bottles and other objects at the line of officers, and attempting to break through the metal barriers.

I find it interesting that you minimize when people aligned with your policies attempt the same crimes — assaulting police, attempting to break into a secured government building, and forcing politicians to flee.
