It's too bad this article never links to the paper [1] being hinted at. In late 2012 (first submission) tensor decomposition was likely very interesting (the paper has >1000 citations!). But given that this article doesn't di

That seems... super inefficient? California has ~40% more people than Texas (40M vs 28M) and seems to have historically [1] stayed at or below 50GW for the last 20 years. [1] https://www.caiso.com/documents/californiais

> macOS implements NFSv4.0, while SEQUENCE is part of NFSv4.1 and later. Whoa. That's a real mistake. v4.0 is widely considered a "oops, we shouldn't have released this". TIL!

Nit: NFSv3 is stateless, V4 isn't (sessionid and clientid permit stateful handling of locks and shares). I would assume this person is just doing an in-memory "NFS server" that would keep all of that state around. So it'

Maybe! I'd definitely argue for the Kubelet to be in Rust, if starting from scratch. The apiserver is less clear. But note that at Google it's unclear those would be written in Rust even today.

I'm surprised "MAC" never appears in the paper. Does Linux happily pickup a new MAC "on wake-up"?

You don't have to replace the roof. You can coat it in a white, "elastomeric" paint like [1]. Each bucket can do about 450 sq ft (40 sq m) and is ~$100 for the supplies. In California, roof color isn't regulated, but r

You can get the "RV" variant now at starlink.com/rv. It's a little bit more per month but allows roaming and turning it on and off. On the downside, it's explicitly lower priority on the network than the fixed ones.

See! People should register via mail for those important notifications! (Or alternatively do quarterly checks that your firmware is up to date).

Even at the time, this was no longer really applicable on Sandy Bridge and beyond. The point of their volatile macros was just to prevent reordering. It can matter, but it's pretty rare. From the last paragraph before the Conclusion:

Yeah, sorry if I was unclear: some folks thought that cuHostMalloc et al. and pinned memory were "impure". That you should instead have a unified sense of "allocate" and that it could sometimes be host, sometimes device,

(Thanks!) Can you say more about the parse tree impact on performance? Is the expression left in a tree form and effectively "interpreted" from the AST for all points? Is that the critical path?

Was it in C++ originally not C? (It seems like a C FFI bridge would have been straightforward from). Or did it already go from C => Objective-C++ a while back? (I read the article hours ago and didn't notice you'd posted. Btw,

Do you feel that reaching Point Reyes and other areas in the north does not "serve them in any way"? Bridges have existed for millennia because they're useful to both sides of the bridge.
