Would be a red flag for me about the company, that my performance is judged by unrelated factors that I have no control of.

You mean the 6 month 2% core inflation? Technology has always depreciated quickly.

I bought an RX 6600 off of ebay for $155 half a year ago, for context, which, as the article mentions, is substantially more power efficient for nearly the same (poor for these days) performance.

The agricultural exemption really sucks, but the force was probably too strong. We'll get John Deere next time.

Cascadia Subduction Zone[1] is why I never considered living in Seattle/Portland once I found out about it. Funny, cause I live in the SF Bay Area, where the earthquakes are frequent, but they can never reach the magnitude of what'

Very true. But the splats cannot, at the moment, account for moving lights, nor dynamic scenes, so it seems like only the 0-th harmonic would be affected by shadowing.

There's probably some locality you can exploit as well. Given the same surface and close proximity, I imagine the coefficients are nearly identical. Or store only the rotation of certain typical small set of SH coefficients in two valu

It has nothing to do with games. The market outside of games for compute is much bigger at the moment with the AI hype, and AMD is positioned to take a good slice of it, if they get their software stack in order.

I can see the reversal of previous terms of service getting challenged in court. But that's a lot of effort, of course. Maybe IGDA can take on the challenge. Seems obvious, that if you did not agree to the ToS, you cannot be held accou

Why is a perspective from a "soulless mba-style cretin" discarded, if it is presented in a logical way? Unity is a for-profit business after all, and a public one.

You need to be able to plug it in at home though, even if it's just a regular wall socket. No one is going to go to a charging station for 20 miles of range.

I have a BMW 330e with 12kWh battery (~20 miles range), mostly drive locally in the city, and the car reports ~55% of driving is electric for the last two months. Occasional longer trips make up the vast majority of non-electric driving.

Or it would kill the conventionally grown salad industry, cause it cannot compete. It is extremely labor intensive already. Not that I care that much, if I eat salad from one process or the other.
