the internet isn't a single centrally planned social context, and it has five plus billion users, of course it isn't counterculture

"it's counterculture if you ignore all the military/mass surveillance stuff" doesn't strike me as a strong defense

if it's colocated (surely the case) they aren't paying per kWh

I'm probably getting one for desktop use, but I'm also curious for other use cases, what's the power usage like? while idle or doing high frame rate video?

IBM puts a lot of work and money into making sure open source stuff runs properly on those two, even if they aren't that popular them being kept by major distros is therefore not as "natural" as other architectures

why are you paying for a license? are there non-LGPL features you're using?

I think it's a little too niche, and as embedded processors get more and more powerful, we'll just see the same trend of doing all UI in a browser instead I do like working in it, though!

Qt with QML for a somewhat embedded use case. I think it hits a really nice intersection of native speed, GPU acceleration, interfacing with C++, and ease of development. I wouldn't really recommend a career out of it.

$15/hour in the US vs $2/hour in China

really? every fpga user I've ever seen bitches extensively about the vendor software this sounds a lot like what people used to say about shitty expensive vendor software for MCUs

there is a very strong implicit claim in what you're saying: that AI video output is usefully comparable to human output

none of my school tests were one on one, completely open ended, covering unpredictable subject matter, or were the only thing between me and $100k+

a mixture of ossification if something mostly works, and a constantly shifting morass for the rest so somewhat worse than what we have now

if development cost trends to zero but maintenance requires expertise, there will be no maintenance, all code will be thrown out ASAP

"doing everything on the internet" definitely worked out, but I don't see why that implies "GPU accelerated LLMs will replace large swathes of human labor" will also be true

someone did a javascript rowhammer in 2015, hardware that's vulnerable today is just manufacturers and customers deciding they don't want to pay for mitigation (personally I think all RAM in all devices should be ECC)

converting 5% of users to paying is frankly beyond plausibility, if they got 0.1% I'd consider that a miracle

is anyone "serious" using micropython or lua for embedded work?

by Palomides 1y ago
they're often called "whegs" and work well on hard but irregular surfaces

cloudflare wants to sell a "AI bots have to pay to access your site" service, so they need to argue it out with google one way or another the reality of the tech is irrelevant

core one is enclosed and somewhat (20%?) faster
172.
by Palomides 1y ago
this is a nice post on how to maintain and repair a Core One, not things you have to regularly do kinda irritating that every single thread about a Prusa printer has a dismissive post from someone who went from a janky Ender to a Bambu

the minisforum devices are probably the closest thing to that unfortunately most people still consider ECC unnecessary, so options are slim

high speed links all have forward error correction now (even PCIe); nothing in my small rack full of 40Gbe devices connected with DACs has any link level errors reported

vmware apparently had 20 employees in year one, I don't think a single person has ever worked full time on a mac emulator (other than Apple's internal ones, of course) even a "tiny, scrappy company" has massive manpower
176.
by Palomides 1y ago
there's definitely room to improve user friendliness of mac emulation (minivmac's compile time config is so infuriating), but I think it's a bit unfair to compare to most of those emulators vmware and virtualbox were backed b

>be a sterile, subservient entity for the majority of your existence yeah, having a job sucks shit, we know most people don't have the luxury of working a job that's worth aligning with

I'm kinda surprised they bothered, it's only caught 100,000 out of the 600,000,000 domains they handle?

none of those PPC CPUs are still in production, to say nothing of the many other undocumented custom chips used in those Macs. the 68000 is still available new.
