Nope. Unless you take out all the thousands of nukes at the same instant, you are guaranteed to get at least some of them sent your way. Doesn’t take many to wipe out a large part of your population.

What can those customers do? The airlines that have lots of 787 max have a vested interest in being able to use them. The whole max mcas debacle happened because of the high cost of pilot re-certification. So what are they going to do, re-c

But also can find by image likeness which allows you to find where an image is coming from. Google images used to do that but now they merely analyse the image and search for what they think is the textual description of the image.

What I am puzzled about is companies that are sending mixed messages. On one side they want people to return to the office because people are just more productive. On the other hand they want to save on office real estate so are not providi

I used a lot that movie as an analogy during covid, when we were told that all borders were closed and it was impossible to travel, but the few friends who actually showed up at airports were surprised to see the whole thing functioning nor

On the other hand he also put Usual Suspects on that list (he argues the plot is too complicated). Can't disagree more.

We are talking about decoding here. You meant decoder? I can certainly see the hardware decoder being busy in task manager.

But also I understand the GPU is using a video encoding/decoding chip which will have a fixed performance whatever the model of GPU within a generation, whereas software can fully utilise your CPU, and scale up if you run multiple stre

Maybe I am doing it wrong. But I tried the following commands to test it on h264/h265 and 1080p/4k sources: Soft: ffmpeg -i {src} -map 0:v -f null - Hard: ffmpeg -hwaccel cuda -i {src} -map 0:v -f null - the result I

Encoding is very different. Most codecs are designed to be slow to encode, fast to decode. HW encoding is day and night vs software. But I see ffmpeg mentioned in the post. Switching to hardware decoding is likely to slow down your pipeline

How useful are hardware decoders? My understanding is that they are not necessarily faster than software decoders (in my experience it is the opposite), so the only benefit I can see is less CPU consumption. I see the benefit when you run o

Well, Ukraine cured covid. That's a good way to remind oneself how much our perception of a problem is manipulated by the news. That works both ways. They can blackhole a major event, or put a giant microscope on top of a tiny event. Y

If evergrande is the parent company, I don't think a restructuring of its own debt affects the debt of its subs, so the chinese sub would still be liable for the funding it borrowed from the parent unless it is itself restructured. If

If the subsidiary is performing (not saying it is the case here), it's unclear to me how you could even force its liquidation. Financially, shits fly upward, not downward. Losses will contaminate the parent company not the child compan

On the other hand you don’t really want your kids to have to worry about wolves on their way to school. So I don’t think the zero environmental impact is the target either.

Plus B757 stopped being manufactured in 2004 so whatever problem this is, is unrelated to recent boeing manufacturing problems.

The article talks about chiplets. I presume the wafer will still be cut into distinct chips? I thought there were thermal (and yield) reasons to not making chips that are too large.
