Let the metal cool down to the the temperature of the ice and try again. The problem isn’t generally that the ice is sticky per se; the problem is that the surface of the ice will melt if something warm enough touches it and then will free

I would pay an extra tiny bit for the LLM to stop telling me how brilliant my idea was when I ask it questions. (Getting complemented on my brilliance is not in any respect indicative of a particular idea being useful, as should be obvious

I’m thinking more of paying people on the margin or of some kind on tax system that compensates for inequality a bit. Not fully worked out, but consider: suppose there are 100 people in the population, and a bunch of them are ambivalent bet

I hope someone somewhere has managed to run a K8s cluster on a bunch of EC2 instances that are themselves described as objects in that K8s cluster. Maybe the VPC is also an object in the cluster.

I think the economics are wrong for this, at least so far. CXMT seems to be scaling up as fast as they can, and they have maybe 5% market share. They can’t flood the market with cheap DRAM because they don’t have enough DRAM yet — I’m not

Or maybe CXMT is not dumb? If the worldwide price of some commodity is $100 and you can produce an item that is nearly as good as everyone else’s, would you sell it for $98 or for $50? Or the supply of non-CXMT DRAM is sufficient poor righ

I wish them luck. The other major DRAM makers use ASML machines, and I’m curious how competitive CXMT will manage to be without them.

I think that quite a few large companies are currently entrenched in a way that is rather unfortunate for their customers: they are so hard to displace that it’s not longer important whether their product is good enough that the customers l

If these things are even 50% efficient, then power delivery is really not a problem these days. Most EVs have no problem delivering 200kW for quite a few seconds at a time, limited mostly by components getting warm. Higher-end EVs are gene

Whoops, this proves I’m not really a userspace assembly programmer… But you can indeed safely read past the end if a buffer if you don’t cross a page boundary and you aren’t bound by the rules of, say, C.

Modern x86 CPUs have actual instructions for strcpy that work fairly well. There were several false starts along the way, but the performance is fine now.

What safety and regulatory requirements do you need to meet? If you need NEC class 2, both Lutron and ERP make UL listed 24V class 2 supplies. You can calculate what length you can drive at 4A (96W) and drive that much. The Lutron one dims

EEXIST. Lots of IO operations can fail because the destination already exists, and in quite a few cases, this isn’t really a failure so much as just a different outcome. In general, there is quite a bit of code that wants to branch on the

It does. But maybe someone should prove (in Lean?) that the lack of flow control is sufficient. Without a constraint that values aren’t ignored, the lack of flow control is certainly not sufficient, so trying to do this right would require

Is this concept of UB as poison actually sound? It seems to me (and I apologize for not using real notation, as I can read a little bit of Lean but I’ve never tried writing it, and my experience writing optimizers is nonexistent): Suppose

Home Assistant takes this one step farther. There is a pre- run hook that goes out its way to make it hard to run an “integration” that doesn’t meet its quality standard. I get that they don’t want to get PRs for integrations that don’t ch
