Of course it’s .dng; .jxl doesn’t carry the metadata needed to process a RAW image because it’s not intended for that.

The neural engine by design cannot handle all possible kernels, and the GPU is significantly slower for integer math, and cannot do fp64. Then for the iPhone SoCs with 4 or 5 core GPUs, the GPU is a bit slower for fp16 and fp32 too.

I don’t think it’s obviously “wrong” that renters don’t automatically get the right to occupy a property indefinitely once they move in, but rather only have that right for an agreed-upon term. Or that the owner has the right to decline to

Pipes don’t exist for safety, they exist as an optimization to pass data between existing programs.

Cumberland has more in common with everything west of the Shenandoah than any part of Maryland you likely drove to.

The trees… it very much matters where you live. They spend so much time dealing with them because the PNW is a tinderbox. East coast, you just make sure nothing will fall on your house and leave your 50 acre forest to the wilds. (And of cou

As a kid, you biked alongside cars doing 60mph on 2-lane unseparated highways? Certainly no one I knew growing up was allowed to do that, which limited us to the the hundred or so homes we could reach on slower roads (and zero businesses)

They're only large compared to other ARM cores, and Cortex-X4 is pretty close nowadays. AMD and especially Intel have a significantly larger per-core area budget; they have to in order to clock past 5 GHz.

A for() loop does the same thing at the cost of like 3 instructions. 4x128b has the flexibility that you don't need 512b wide operations on the same data to keep the ALUs fed. If you have 512b wide operations being split to 4x128b in

CPUs with SVE have been generally available for two years now. SME and AVX-512 got benchmarks written showing them off before the CPUs were even available. Seems fair to me. simdjson specifically benefitted from Intel's hardware deci

What is the percentage gain of using masked instructions on any benchmark/task of your choice? It can be negative on weird kernels that do lots of vector cmp since even ARM decided the cost of more than one write port in the predicate

What is the measurable benefit to implementing 128b SVE2? Like, ARM has CPUs that implement that, and it's not even disabled on some chips. So there must be benchmarks somewhere showing how worthwhile it is. And implementing 256b SVE

Spirit just dropped change fees entirely, and the other 6 biggest airlines have dropped change fees except for their basic economy equivalents (normal economy is changeable for free.) But for checked bags they all still really want you to p

It's very much "figure out what AOs want and fake it" rather than "show ambition and ability to get shit done", and kids are acutely aware of the fakeness of it all. Like, it's a meme among the "applying t

Well no, any theory of emulators being illegal would be under the DMCA, which bans DRM circumvention without the authority of the copyright owner . But Nintendo is selling games with said authority, so it wouldn't apply.

"Experiencing pain" is more of a philosophical/religious question dating back to at least Cartesian dualism, rather than a question of whether pain receptors exist and induce a pain response. And yeah, there are people even t

Its design follows the old idea that an ISA should be designed for assembly programmers; that instructions should implement complex or higher-level functions intended for a programmer to use directly. RISC rejected that notion (among other

Increasing density generally increases existing home values more than not doing that; the land becomes more valuable (for free!) if more houses can be sold on top of it, and that's almost always worth more than having renters nearby.

It also borders Santa Clara; the housing immediately east of Apple Park is Santa Clara. North Santa Clara is cheaper than the southern half yes, but not really cheaper than the neighboring north Sunnyvale.

Cupertino and especially Palo Alto are still more expensive, but Santa Clara isn’t much cheaper than Sunnyvale anymore, with homes near Apple HQ hitting $2k per square foot.

Those runways still serve a ton of 737/A320 flights that have plenty of room to be upgauged to widebodies, and most of those runways could increase capacity further still if FAA/ICAO decide newer tech can safely reduce IFR separat

4 story townhomes including the garage are pretty common, and when American building codes heavily restrict buildings over 5 stories (and encourage parking spaces) then it makes perfect sense to build 3/4 bedroom housing stock as townh

A significant amount of people are judgement proof, aka they have no significant assets or income eligible to seized or garnished to pay for debts. Plus you alone bear the legal costs of obtaining a judgement to begin with.

Long haul might not be the majority of flights by number, but they account for ~40% of the emissions from commercial aviation (well more accurately, wide-bodies do.) Regional flights that are prime targets to go fully electric only account

Eh, a crazy founder wanting to lose money failing to launch an airline is the only potential flyer if Emirates doesn't want it, aka Global Airlines. Even using it as an engine test platform is more likely than a billionaire ever flying

Boeing tried to sell the last private 747-8 for a decade before scrapping it (N458BJ), and that one was originally built for a billionaire, had logged almost no flight time, and was already empty and ready to have the interior customized
