People don't just start being able to deal with things that require self control at a specific age. It has to be taught. Even sex ed recognizes that, where it's far more effective to teach kids how to be safe during it rather than

Setting it to 18 is obviously pretty ridiculous. That's just going to continue the weird trend of infantilizing people by pushing back the age at which they learn to deal with things that require self control. At 16 there are at least

Things have pretty visibly been getting pushed away from exclusivity by the console makers. MS commits to bringing all first party Xbox games to PC and Sony has ported over a lot of its most popular titles as well.

It's being downvoted because randomizing something that is by its nature chronological is very obviously different from randomizing the order of something where you want to explicitly avoid giving the impression that one takes priority

It's kind of hilarious to be saying that Apple is more likely to be seeing traction on Metal of all things, when all but the last one of those requirements fit graphics programmers in Vulkan or DirectX, both of which have far more trac

The tooling around ROCm is not as good (debuggers, profilers etc), and at least in my tangential experience (that is, involving GPGPU computation, but not for ML), custom operations are faster when written in CUDA code than in a high level

Those are mostly in response to reddit's API changes. By editing the comments before deletion, the archives also get wiped and it takes a bit more effort for reddit to restore deleted comments behind users' backs. Yes, it makes th

Agreed, I was thinking that the API protest and the crackdown Reddit perpetrated wouldn't end up actually doing much (did still delete my account though, partly as an excuse to break the habit), and while to an extent that's true,

You might think that, but at least back during the PSP and PSVita days (when I was into consoles), a large chunk of it was about the homebrew. For a decent chunk of the Vita's existence you only could do homebrew and emulators. Piracy

My cynical side wonders if they were just looking for an excuse to get rid of it so they can continue their process of sheding off the final remaining shreds of the original cypherpunk culture of crypto.

Rockets turned out to be expensive not because the technology demanded it, but because the companies were intentionally inefficient, e.g. it was actually fine to build a rocket in a tent with simple tools than to setup a massive clean room

The US was stricter on its homegrown giants of the past, so I don't really buy into the idea that the US has to let big tech impose all of its dystopian ideals upon people to retain a lead over China. The current approach may be benefi

They were founded in 1993, but until 1998 had only put out 2 chips, the first was a quadratic surface renderer that didn't sell well, and the second was a normal triangle rasterizer that saved them from bankruptcy. Then in 2001 they re

That's the claim Jensen has made, and while there isn't any particular evidence besides his word to go off for the founding goal, it's worth considering that between 1993 and 1998 they only put out 2 chips. The first one was

The improvements focus on AI, but it's still a GPGPU oriented chip. Due to how language works, it doesn't really matter that graphics isn't the main focus anymore, the chip still follows the same basic architectural principle

They are getting more efficient. They draw say, 2x the power, but do 4x the work. The H100 is apparently ~5x more efficient than the A100.
