Intel changing up its GPU strategy with a pretty big reorg, which to me feels a bit like backing rather than doubling down, as they try to spin it.

Having worked closely on the circuit side of things with folks doing research on spintronics and STT-MRAM devices: it’s going to be a very long time still before this can replace embedded SRAM. The MRAM itself can be made quite small, but y

This is impressive! I’ll admit: My first reaction was: cool but why not just use qemu to get a more full fledged system, add rv64 etc? But the readme explains it very well, I admire the dedication and consistency it takes to stick to rv32 n

I can confirm. Set and forget all the way. Works very well on iOs and also on Samsung smartTV (those are evil without some form of Adblock!) Hardest part for me in the set up was that ad guard should query my router for local domain, becaus

Yes! I never got the hang of the read line short cuts. Only one I remember and regularly use is reverse history search: ctrl-R. The downside is that while vim mode works nicely on bash, other commands like gdb etc that also use read line ar

You can edit the current prompt in a full vim by pressing ‘v’. On :wq the content of the file will be run as the command. In that case you can use the macros with q (and any fancy vim plugin you might like)

Not being familiar with recommendation engines at all, this article does a decent job showing some of the basics in a bird’s eye view, at least to my untrained eye. That said, it’s still a promo piece for their graph database.

For me this is a good example of the old adage that you should not confuse vision with strategy. The vision is you realize the universal truth (in Amazon’s case people want things cheap and fast). The strategy is how you deliver on making t

Thank you for the clarification (it’s not nitpicking). I hadn’t read any of your posts recently - I’ll have some reading up to do I see :)

(This should probably have a 2016 tag) I’ve been a long time fan Anders Hoff’s work - it’s well worth it to check the other posts on incovergent.net - quite a few have been covered here on hacker news. Interest also to see how he has moved

One thing the article does not mention is that the darker (and softer) the pencil, the more easily it smudges. Even if it is not charcoal, you’d do best to fixate if you use really soft pencils like the 12B they tested. As a side note: I lo

This is a very important distinction. With deliberate attention, you can indeed catch many fakes in this kind of scenario (to me it seems the background is often a giveaway, but you do need to focus on it) But in passing, accompanying a new

the problem is the material properties link power and variability. This means that you either get good variability or higher power consumption, but never good variability at low power at the same time

Having worked on this for quite a few years (compute in memory with a variety of emerging memories: RRAM, MRAM others) with a substantial research team, our conclusion ended up being you are better off with SRAM based solutions. And most li

+1 for pushover I’ve been using for quite a fee years. The app is not free but once you pay the one-time fee for the app, they have a generous free tier for personal use, and it has worked quite flawlessly for me so far.

It’s always meter specific, I use the plugin and dongle as described here: https://www.home-assistant.io/integrations/dsmr/ this works with a bunch but by far not all of the meter types in EU.

While I haven’t gotten my lights set up like this, I do use home assistant, just like the author and it is simply amazing. For things like this, the setup can get quite complex, but the main benefit is that it provides a unified interface t

The form factor is a nice gimmick and fuels nostalgia for people who played these games as kids. I have a SNES mini, but it’s mostly collecting dust by now. I simply don’t have the time with 2 young kids, and to be honest: I underestimated

They have had decades of close collaboration an customer feedback from their internal design teams, they have process technology teams using some of those designs as reference points to improve upon for the next node. Don’t underestimate

This is probably one of the biggest challenges ahead, likely more so than making hardware that still somehow scales despite Moore’s law slowing down and tapering out entirely. The increased scale of integration with advanced 3D packaging an

I was looking for a Christmas present robot kit for my 8 year old and still on the fence between mindstorms or the makeblock robots. (The Codey Rockey in particular, but the mbot looks really nice too) I have colleagues that organize coserd

That’s because they skip quite a few steps. You would first deposit a photosensitive layer, then expose it wit a pattern of light, which will allow you to selectively open up the parts you want to toch next. For step 7 for example, you crea
