You could imagine sanctions on Brazilian beef. Either a blanket ban or something targeted at particular producers. I doubt it would happen, but that's a different plan.

It's unfortunate that no math is ever done in these stories. If you take the "350,000" H100s that Facebook wants by EOY, each of those can do 700W, which gives you almost 250 MW for just the GPUs. That sounds like a lot, unti

Most of the world lacks this product. In the UK, for example, I think the most popular product is what we'd call a 2/1 ARM!

Movies yes, but often a single episode of a show is say $2. That means if you watch a season in a month, you're up to $16-20 pretty quickly with 8-10 episodes.

I like the term parsley code! I do suspect though that both the hashing and 6-bit weight examples are just extremely rare in the corpus. It wasn't confused about loops, or hashing generally, but just didn't do as well as antirez

I really like the argument about misinformation vs testing. I'm not totally sold on "you can just see it", but I do think something like TDD could suddenly be really productive in this world. I've found autocomplete via

Let's call it "production order" then. Firefly was famously broadcast out of order.

Sorry if I was unclear, that's what we did in NYC and are doing again in Buffalo. The blog post is actually from the previous Bellevue announcement. Edit to add this link to some footage: https://twitter.com/dmitri_dolg

Winter and snow is hard for a lot of reasons. But we did some testing with safety drivers in NYC last year and will be in Buffalo this year: https://twitter.com/Waymo/status/1721629316625093035 (and others histori

Disclosure: I work at Waymo, but not on the Safety Research team. The Ars article linked to the Waymo blog post [1], but the underlying paper is at [2] via waymo.com/safety . A lot of folks are assuming this wasn't corrected for l

I'm not sure if it was recorded, but I think Don Knuth's Christmas lecture last week was on a related topic. It's a follow-up to his 2018 lecture: https://online.stanford.edu/donald-e-knuth-lectures

It's been over a decade since I looked at this, but in real-time Monte Carlo path tracing the speed of your RNG is material. In simple enough scenes, probably something like 5-10% IIRC when using MT. I appreciate that you had a note ab

As folks are saying, there are already commercially developed panels at 24.7% [1] that should ship within the next year. The existing fleet of Maxeon 3 are apparently going to be 24% this quarter, rather than the 22.7% in the actively shipp

I think anyone can get on the Top 500 as long as they run a verified FP64 LINPACK result. At the time, this would have been comparing against Perlmutter: https://www.top500.org/lists/top500/2021/06/ So 6
