Hence my comment that "With the current supreme court, that laundering seems kinda likely to succeed." I don't disagree with anything you're arguing from a moral perspective. I'm not a big fan of what's happeni

I agree, I should have said 1st amendment rights more generally. I've edited my post to update that - thank you.

Don't get me wrong: I think legacy admissions should be eliminated. And my understanding is that my university (Carnegie Mellon) has stopped considering legacy status as part of admissions. But the answer is that legacy is a one-hop re

Surely you'll be able to reduce this by getting TSMC to build new fabs to construct your new Bubble Sort Processors (BSPs).

We've made a bit of a family thing of visiting spy museums, and would say: Visit both! (And if you have the opportunity for some reason, the CIA museum is also fantastic, but not open to the public). The Spy Museum has better flashy in

There are many and google uses several - rust, python, java, and go among them. But low-level code for Android has historically been in c++ and Rust is the primary memory-safe replacement for the stuff they're building.

With the stock split and dividends reinvested, the $1 would now be worth $1.64, _not_ inflation adjusted. You'd still be in bad shape if you inflation adjust - the $1 with inflation would be $1.93. So you've still lost money overa

It might feel that way, but I think it's really worth asking : is it? If I put humility aside for a moment, I'm awfully good in my field, and academia is hyper competitive, and yet I know people who are better at everything that I

Kinda depends what you're asking. There are IP camera 12V UPSes you can get that are ok -- I have a few TalentCell 98Wh units -- but they don't actually deliver regulated power, they just tap directly off of the li-ion cells. Thos

I've moved a lot of my home computing to home-brewed 12V UPSes using these. LFP charger --> Battery --> 12V or 5V DC-DC buck or boost/buck regulator --> device. Most UPSes are designed for high wattage, short runtime, but

Consider the extrema: You have a Pentium P5 running at 16W doing something like 70 MIPS (which isn't quite producing 70 MFLOPS), getting something like 4 MFLOP/Watt. Then take a Titan V at 14.9 TFLOPs (32 bit) at about 250W, for 5

Even once you have a core sitting in a datacenter, the value you derive from the computations must exceed the power cost (and the SWE cost to run that computation). Otherwise you're better off turning it off. I have a stack of 1080ti a

Me too, but at least there's some stuff in there (for extra) about RF safety. Not a lot, but enough that someone with an extra class license should know that they need to go do some calculations about the safe distance from their anten

The reason for licensing is similar to the reason for licensing ham radio: you get a slightly higher level of clue about not creating huge amounts of accidental interference, and a point of contact to yell at if they do. and a little safety

Please do, I'd love to learn. We just completed a run of our latest version so we're a ways from thinking about a new design, but it would be helpful to know know what I should be thinking about for our roadmap. dave.andersen at G
