   Is none of it based off of binning now, with sections of lower-performing chiplets or cores fused off to make the efficiency cores?

   Oh, suddenly I'm not interested, either! Thanks!

   I don't dispute any of that. Read what I wrote again.

   Apple doesn't care about deliverability as a moat. RCS won't moot the blue bubbles so they have no reason not to implement it.

   :blink: And this was being discussed credibly as "something we'll be doing in the near-term future?"

   Isn’t markdown plaintext? (I didn’t downvote.)

   I was mentally hijacked into clicking the jobs link (despite recently deciding I wasn’t going to go down that rabbit hole again!) but fortunately/unfortunately it is in-person and daily so, so flying out from Chicago a week out of the

    How much dust would you need to shoot up to affect a statistically significant change in the amount of sunlight getting through?

    Yes, until you throw a second switch in the same circuit. Then you’ll never know.

    The corollary to that is that narrower (maternal) hips are also not being weeded out of the gene pool.

    This complete fallacy that "people didn't live that long" can't die soon enough. Mortality numbers are horribly skewed by high birth and infancy mortality rates and a spike for military-aged individuals, but people that

    You don't need demographic studies. These were people's parents, grandparents. Part of their lived life. Enough random diaries are sufficient.

    I found this interesting but not actually very informative and walked away really learning nothing from having read the article submitted itself. It’s all “we used this tool” and “we followed this guide” with no explanation of theory or pro

    Sorry, I meant specifically the post-mitigations aspect. It really does change the calculus.

    Something I ~never see mentioned in mmap discussions is that it completely bypasses the expensive syscall transition for read calls, which has only grown rapidly in cost thanks to all the speculative execution mitigations. In benchmarking I

    Scoop install gsudo is even better (still run as sudo).

    The “original” UML is/was, I believe, NetBSD running as a “rump kernel” and something that virtualization of the actual kernel does not, directly and on its own, fill the shoes of.

    I must say, I’m surprised to see so many HN users (who, despite being biased towards having more disposable income are also supposedly more discerning) simply immediately upgrading their Google One plans to the new offering before testing t

    Some amount of RLHF censorship seems to correlate with benchmark improvements in studies, though.

    GPT-4 has a really good tokenizer that is able to retain and use more information about input tokens than one might naively think.

    The “cute” gotcha here is that Israel doesn’t have to foot the bill, the USA is happily paying.

    I mean, Israel has demonstrated much the same approach (confined to a much smaller territory) nonstop over the past four months (first missiles and now 155mm artillery and tank shells), so it’s definitely not just an Eastern Europe thing.

    Nice catch! That warning definitely wasn't emitted the last time I tried this.. I don't know about using something like your suggestion which has actual side effects, but probably something like #![cfg_attr(invalid, allow(unused_a

    Thanks! > Would it have been possible back then to use cargo to pull in some dependencies? Not at the time, at least not that I know of. I wonder if it's possible to get a link to this solution added to that "prior art" se
