> Supporting ZFS in a UNIX kernel requires excessively extensive modifications to the design and implementation of the VMM, namely:

FYI: Apple did a bunch of that work. They ported ZFS to OSX shortly after it was open sourced. With with only support landing in 10.5. With it being listed as an upcoming feature in 10.6.

But something happened and they abandoned it. The rumour is a sun exec let the cat out of the bag about it being the next main filesystem for osx (ie not just support for non root drives) and this annoyed Jobs so much he canned the whole project.
Whenever I’m told there isn’t time, I remind the PM :Yes, but if it’s wrong or doesn’t work we will have time to do it over - it will just cost more later.
I like this concept! I've seen other games like https://wordputt.com which try to go semantic instead of categorical.
I follow a secular humanist moral system as best I can. I have tolerance for those who have tolerance for me. I grew up amongst fundamentalist christians and fundamentalist anything (christian, muslim, buddhist, whatever) leave a bad taste in my mouth. I don't care about your religion just don't try to force it on me or try to make me live by its moral system and you won't hear a peep out of me about what you're doing as long as it's not harming others.
> which the US can't grow anyways

Em. The US can and does grow vanilla commercially. It'll happily grow in USVI, Puerto Rico, Florida and Hawaii, though only Hawaii afaik has commercial growers, though Puerto Rico used to be the ninth largest vanilla producer in the world.
Even so, most of the times, when there is a clump, it's likely causal, not random.
Wait? Is there anything actually broken with the existing system? This is such a "junior developer" move I'm amazed it's being entertained seriously.

Coroutines aren't really a thing in modern GPUs.

You might get similar effects with work graphs, CUDA dynamic parallelism or whatnot. But most coroutine patterns have significant branch divergence that probably is grossly inefficient in GPU land.

The GPU equivalent to coroutines would be to save off a continuation structure to a append buffer, and then startup a new GPU call with that buffer now turned into a consume buffer (which is how Raytracing circa 2018ish worked in Blender, before deficated Raytracing hardware was a thing)

You need to consolidate all of the divergent threads and coalesce them into converged threads to benefit from SIMD architecture.

-------

EDIT: Remember that in a 1920 x 1080p pixel screen has 2073600 pixels, which becomes 2073600 threads for 1-ray-per-pixel typical GPU implementation.

With so many threads, it doesn't make sense to "immediately" call coroutines. Instead, it makes far more sense to consolidate and coalesce threads together (ex: group up "hit" raytraces vs "miss" raytraces, which are handled differently).
Yes. Many references for this topic, Google "evidence of pathogenic cause cancer". This one looks like a good read: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S295019462... "Role of infectious agents in cancer pathogenesis and therapy" for a dozen examples. There's so many more in reality.
You know what is an example of propaganda/advertising? Peta, extinction rebellion et al antics. Marching for right to bear arms. Standing outside of Tesla dealers dissuading shoppers. Militancy, activism in general. At this stage of society I too think having less of any of this is good. It's a shame there's no ad blockers for militancy. The chance to achieve consensus on this is 0, so we will be left with propaganda to try to shift public opinion towards censuring one militancy over another
Lot of broken links on that page.
You're presenting an idea here by means of a lot of implicit leaps, and I don't even know where I'm supposed to leap to at each stage. It's like a logic game that I'm failing at.

What's the connection between adverts and the amount of money Ghibli made on their best-loved movie?

Hmm, maybe none, maybe you're using Ghibli as a metaphor for products that make money through adverts. And maybe the implied answer to the next question is that their next movie, The Cat Returns, would have been higher quality if they had made even more money on Spirited Away. So what you could be saying is that crippling the ad industry would lead to lower quality products, without even much reducing the number of (less effective) adverts that get made.

That's one way to read what you said, but I feel like I got it wrong.
Nope..it requires effort to understand things beyond partisan tropes.
Long lines aren't that difficult to follow. And for those who find it so, they can just resize their browser window. Meanwhile I have to go mess with the dev console on half the sites I visit these days because they insist on having text in a 2-inch wide column. That is a way worse problem.
> The Internet was conceived as a network of independent nodes, all interconnected. What I said looks a lot more like what the Internet was intended to be than YouTube does.

I don't dispute that, and it's not as much of an issue as long as they are in fact interconnected nodes, but the direction we're heading is that more and more countries are exploring China's and North Korea's model where they have their own sovereign internet. Russia, Iran, Myanmar have all taken concrete steps in the past 2-3 years, and plenty of other countries would do more if they had the ability to do so.

Like it or not, there is actually a notion of "too big to block." Most countries are not willing to block, say, all of Cloudflare's IP ranges, or all of Google or YouTube.

> Perhaps. You might also ask yourself why they are region-locked. I believe it will come down to advertisement, at least to a non-negligible amount.

In my experience, most region locks are based on either licensing deals or government regulations. That seems to be the case for BBC content:

"Programmes cannot be streamed outside the UK, even on holiday. This is because of rights agreements."

https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/help/questions/playback-issues...

Sure, some licensing deals are made on the basis of "who gets the advertising revenue", but not all of them (or probably most, for that matter).

> In any case, I'm not saying multi-language or multi-country websites and services would be prohibited from existing, only that the likes of YouTube would probably not be as profitable and may cease to exist.

Yep, I totally agree. As I said, "Take away the ad money, and I can't imagine that the remaining subscription revenue comes anywhere close to paying for the infrastructure." I'm not asserting that multi-country websites would be prohibited, but rather that if you push ownership onto governments, they'll prioritize their residents over any other users, and I wouldn't be surprised if said governments institute region locks (e.g. to limit serving costs).
In some religious circles they literally teach confirmation bias as a virtue, by another name of course.

This is good advice. As a technical founder I have been through many offer ceremonies and I would always make 2 versions of an offer, one equity weighted and the other base salary weighted. The math should be easy if you’ve already had a priced round and you should be telling the candidate the price and fma of your equity anyway. I would say 90% took the higher base. And I wouldn’t up both unless they were a truly great candidate.

As I understand it SpaceX has launched 500 rockets and many of these rockets were reusable so the number of rockets that they've manufactured over the 25 years that they've been in business is far less than 500.

If you take a look at page 8 of this pdf[0] you'll see that the wargames predict that hundreds of missiles will be used in the first few weeks of an engagement between China and the US over Taiwan. Page 10 will curdle your blood as you'll see that they anticipate to lose dozens of ships including two(!) aircraft carriers. Page 11 shows hundreds of losses of various aircraft.

SpaceX will not save those lives and they will not be able to replace the equipment in time for a second engagement with China.

It is useful in specialist domains. If you love fashion then fashion magazine ads are worth studying, because you read them with a critical eye. If you're into any sort of nerd hobby (model trains, synthesizers, board games...) then the specialist magazines/video channels/forums for that hobby are interesting, again because you have a critical eye. Sure, there are ads that target the newbie with 'the first and last ______ you'll ever need!' but as you get more experienced in the hobby you quickly learn to distinguish which manufacturers are selling the dream vs offering their product. This remains true even on forums for particular vendors that have a cult following. Likewise for many professional trade news outlets.

But it only works where you have specialized focus and experienced/informed consumers that are able to separate the sizzle from the steak. For example, doctors and other medical professionals are generally well qualified to assess the claims of pharmaceutical advertising, consumers are not - even though I am comfortable reading the fine print in such ads and even reading papers about clinical trials, I still rate my evaluative ability as mediocre compared to a professional.

Mass market advertising for general consumers is generally cancer, imho.
Love how the top comment right now is from someone who didn't read the second paragraph in the article, where it links to a bunch of sites with 88x31 buttons.
You seem to have mentioned pretty much the only things that I think are worth keeping under your definition of "advertising".

(Noting that the extremities of some of those examples are already illegal)

It does highlight, however, that a shared definition of a spectrum of what "advertising" actually means, is the first step towards being able to exploit whatever rules the politicians decide upon.
I so hate timers. I left immediately. Sure, have a count up timer for those who what it, but make sure to allow it to be turned off permanently
The article states that "pager daemons" that manage swap files runs in user space, and the kernel memory can also get swapped out, but never explained how a user space daemon swaps out kernel memory. Do they have hard-coded exceptions for special daemons, or use special system calls? Where can I find out more details about the user space memory management specifically?
I suppose it's because I grew up with it, but I greatly prefer food from these type of restaurants than from fancier more expensive restaurants.
Sorry, right wingers have spent decades telling me Snopes is not reliable so I can't trust this.
I'm a bit stumped that you don't consider treaties and agreements to be legalities.

I mean sure, in the 50s the main driver of prosperity was whether a country had avoided being invaded and that isn't necessarily a result of a country's legal system. But the 50s was a very long time ago now and the era since then has been quite equal-opportunity outside pockets of disaster in Africa and the Middle East. The USSR, Chinese, Euro and US experiences haven't been determined by external factors or historical determinism as much as internal policy choices made in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s with a 20-30 year lag before the decisions start to turn up in real life.

Even if we indulge in wild conspiracy and pretend there is a shadowy cabal in Washington that decided to crush the USSR and exalt China economically, that cabal would have had to implement its decisions by somehow guiding internal policy choices in the respective nations. Nobody has managed to do anything to either of them through external pressure that holds a candle to the internal choices made.

Classic banker tactic, I love it. “Overwhelm them with data”
> Americans are spending money at restaurants as much as ever — but really, they are buying food made by a restaurant and eating it somewhere else. Takeout and delivery apps are now ingrained habits. Drive-throughs are going strong. Random snacks and little treats are obsolescing breakfast, lunch and dinner, according to multiple analysts.

I admittedly lost the patience to sit there and wait instead of doing something else, having the food delivered, and immediately eating upon starting the process.

Eating at a restaurant seems like a subpar experience now compared to my own table.

It isn’t just me. Everyone from my grandparents to my friend groups is increasingly takeout and delivery driven.
This sounds laughably naive. They won't even understand the existing system by then.

I don't really understand how Scout and Maverick are distillations of Behemoth if Behemoth is still training. Maybe I missed or misunderstood this in the post?

Did they distill the in-progress Behemoth and the result was good enough for models of those sizes for them to consider releasing it? Or is Behemoth just going through post-training that takes longer than post-training the distilled versions?

Sorry if this is a naïve question.
Companies should offer the best offer in the first place. If the candidates still negotiates, either he is not a fit or you will not make him/her happy/loyal either, the best option is pass.
Interesting. In that case six people had the same rare type of cancer which caused a settlement. The five nurses have three different kinds.
I'm in loops at multiple FAANGs right now and it's not even that bad. Feels similar to when I did this last time? But I do get the impression that they're all just throwing out any resumes that don't already have a FAANG on them. If you're already in the club then it's ok, but I think it's harder than ever to join the club so to speak.
I think I know what math is, though I'm not sure. Logical systems of axioms and inference rules?

There are situations in practical code where goto is the only reasonable choice if you want to avoid spaghetti code. Absolutes have no place in software, you can find scenarios where almost every typically bad idea is actually a good idea.

To be fair Snopes' analysis is 'could be fake but idk really'.
> The part that really struck me was framing advertising and propaganda as essentially the same mechanism - just with different masters.

Advertising is just a name for a delivery mechanism for propaganda. Its not a difference of master, as is clear in the political realm where when we focus on a particular commercial delivery vehicle we talk about "campaign advertisements" but the content is still "political propaganda".

> Try this thought experiment from the article - imagine a world without advertising. Products would still exist. Commerce would still happen. Information would still flow. We'd just be freed from the increasingly sophisticated machinery designed to override our decision-making.

No, the mechanisms would just get even more sophisticated, to work around whatever (inherently, and unavoidably, arbitrary) lines were drawn against "advertising" while permitting the flow of information and opinions about products.

A low effort question on what's C3 take on pointer provenance. Does C3 have any own take on it? Are you with C or with your implementation detail (LLVM) ?

Also if you have 'tourist guide' for gamedev people please share links or short tips. I have no idea about C replacements myself because gamedev that I know is not using C.

ps somehow in my part of the internet your blog is not accessible with cloudflare saying access denied. Do you have any copy/backup of it elsewhere?
The simple thing I tell people to do who are uncomfortable with more complex negotiation is, just before you're about to accept the offer, just ask if they can increase it any. Just straight up say "Is there any room to increase this offer?" If they say no, just accept it. If not, let them increase it, then accept that increased offer. I've gotten an increase at a significant majority of companies doing this and it's essentially zero cost.
That varies by person. While it may or may not interest, I'll say learning how to write or generate parsers is a useful skill that might keep paying off.

I keep running into situations where I'd like to describe data in a high level. BNF grammars often fit those situations, are more readable than regex's, and could make for nice parsers. One must know how to parse, though. :)
This is just CGI of an idea somebody had, no part of this exists yet. Its no different than if some random grad student made a video of a flying car concept that they thought of while binging old sci-fi.
I feel naive saying this, but a certain percentage of the ads on YouTube seem to contravene what would be legal of they were shown on television - in Australia at least.

It feels like standover tactics, showing the worst of the worst unless you pay up.

I should also at least admit that recently,Like the last 12 months, those greasy-type ads are less common, having been replaced with more television-style ads, although they last longer. Still an improvement overall though.
This has not been my experience at all -- even as recently as last year it was

Recruiter: "Here's your offer for $X"

You: "Well I'm also negotiating an offer with Z for $X + 200k

Recruiter: OK well how about $X + 200k and a 50k signing bonus?

Multiple offers are key -- seriously, timing that properly is the biggest thing you can do to optimize your job search. Even if you can't give exact numbers, the mere presence of a competing offer will make a company offer you top of band.
> with the same cause

That seems circular, like it's not a cancer cluster until we find out that it's a cancer cluster, or it's not a cancer cluster because we didn't determine a common cause, so don't worry too much about there maybe being a common cause that would make it count as a cancer cluster.

This underlines how stats are no substitute for reasoning about mechanisms.

I never used them but I got the impression Euroracks were going out of style from the huge spike in electronic musicians talking about them around COVID to only rarely a few years later. Musicians love a good trend to dump money into.

Or maybe it's just the nature of social media to latch on to trendy new toys until they run out of content and move on to the next thing.
The fancier ones seem to have worse food, worse service, and are far more expensive.

NanoMoE: Mixture-of-Experts (Moe) LLMs from Scratch in PyTorch
Model training observations from both Llama 3 and 4 papers:

Meta’s Llama 3 was trained on ~16k H100s, achieving ~380–430 TFLOPS per GPU in BF16 precision, translating to a solid 38 - 43% hardware efficiency [Meta, Llama 3].

For Llama 4 training, Meta doubled the compute, using ~32K H100s and switched to FP8 precision. Despite the precision gain, observed efficiency dropped to about 19.7%, with GPUs delivering ~390 TFLOPS out of a theoretical 1,979 FP8 TFLOPS [Meta, Llama 4].

I am not the one to critique, and rather, this is a recognition of the enormous complexity of operating GPUs at this scale. Training massive models across tens of thousands of GPUs stretches today’s AI infrastructure to its limit.

Besides accelerating inference workloads, advanced GPU optimizations can be integrated into training and fine-tuning pipelines. From various kernel optimization techniques (over 90) to increasing memory access efficiency and scaling up to cluster-wide resource coordination, efficiency can be maximized with some complex software.

I do know of cases where a band split up, then the various members formed new bands and each claimed the song. Roger Waters e.g. left the band and tried to stop the remaining members from using the name Pink Floyd. It was a bit of a legal mess. Waters still plays Pink Floyd songs.
If you step on a nail you'll be less efficient at walking for a bit. Causing random harm to people isn't really the basis for a reasonable system of rules. The regulators could cause random harm to advertisers. Society can cause random harm to anyone. You're not going to make consumers (or anyone else, for that matter) better off.

I'd much rather be fed efficient advertising on a billboard than have to worry about more astroturfing, that stuff is insidious. Cure substantially worse than the disease once advertisers have to deceptive and have even bigger incentives to hide than they already do.

And much as the anti-ads people want to skip the point, nobody ever even established that advertising is a negative thing that advertisers need to be harmed for.
Rule #1 is: have leverage, and understand your leverage.

Rule #2: be prepared to walk away

There are no other rules.
I think you need to do a better job of explaining what benefit it brings, because AI is the only thing I see that distinguishes at from Anki.

I saw you said you didn't like the Anki UX, and I agree that it's a little unfriendly to new users. Your product looks like it's well pitched to new SRS users. But I don't see anything the compels, or even proposes, a need to switch from other solutions right now.
