   Caveat 1: My comment was intended to be a supplement to others so it isn't aimed to be self-contained nor exhaustive. Caveat 2: I am a user of Intel Xeon Phi (KNL specifically) on an HPC system. So my view is biased in this way. It&#x2

   For your last sentence, I’m not sure what you really mean, may be you don’t mean physical capability but more like by chance it’s unlikely. Laser can be very dangerous, especially those used in labs. I remember in my undergrad optics labs w

   To supplement other comments, AVX-512 is an umbrella of a bunch of related stuffs. Some chips has a smaller subset of AVX-512 capabilities and other have more. Linus has mentioned he want AVX-512 to die a gruesome death. AMD also doesn’t ac

   This comment is a very emotional, irrational response to a very logical analysis. What a contrast. The kind of response is also very childish (, not in the sense I am insulting you as childish, but actually just some kind of reaction that w

   I think I don't disagree with anything you said fundamentally, but the main point in the parent comment is > I worry that we’ll now see more broken web apps, given the lack of type safety in Python. I just don't see why "b

   Sorry, don’t quite follow, why would the lack of type safety in Python make this a problem, and how would Typescript help in this situation? This comes from Python dev with no idea how to make web app. Eg I’ve seen some package not maintain

   I personally have taken flights with weird departure time like this. A lot of flights from San Francisco to Hong Kong has departure time like this, arriving Hong Kong at around 7am. I think in general it is just depends on the origin+destin

   A classic problem similar to this would be a flight. If you got a flight departing at 12:40am, make sure you really know what it means. There’s too many people making this mistakes and sometimes the airline might help you out but not always

    First sentence incorrect. £850 is not top end. A typical high end camera product would starts at $2000, and nowadays more often than not is $3000+. A quick search shows the top end of Fuji X mount is $2000+. And that’s not even the top end

    In terms of mount spec, I think Four Third and the successor Micro Four Third is open specification, then the Sony E mount later (not at launch time) open the specification. The later might not be true, may be it is specification available

    They claim it to be visually lossless. There's also a term for audio, but I forgot the exact terminology. Things like this is applying lossy compression carefully with lab test on real humans to claim that under an A/B test an ave

    I think you misunderstand the intention. The parent comment is comparing uptime to their own system and declare superiority, and the one you reply to is asking the the opposite — the duration of downtime. Sure you can build your own infrast

    “Only capable of achieving” is likely referring to it being lossy. It is reasonable for some consumers or manufacturers to not settled with lossy.

    It is not true, computational photography is not the thing that traditional cameras are missing. What they need is a seamless user experience. And while traditional camera excels at capturing (in terms of user experience), it lacks at anyth

    It depends on your perspective, yours is a subjective perspective that you care your experience only, which makes sense for a consumer to know what to buy. (But then everyone’s subjective bias has different weights so to speak.) But from a

    May be an unpopular take here: comparing the spec, we already knew that (3090 is faster.) We can look at theoretical peak FLOPS (32bit), and also available memory, and internal bandwidth. Of the 3, 3090 clearly wins in FLOPS, kind of a draw

    You’re using the technical definition to claim tips as not corruption. And of course we all know that, otherwise it would have been illegal. The point is, fundamentally the current way tips are collected in the US is like corruption. And li

    I don't see your train of thought here, you first mention the lack of "experimentally realizable predictions", i.e. not falsifiable, and then gives one of the many examples that string theory solved without being able to exp
