Showing the murder dog reading a gauge using $$$ worth of model time is kinda not an amazing demo. We already know how to read gauges with machine vision. We also know how to order digital gauges out of industrial catalogs for under $50.

Right, exactly. It is also too much to expect that if a user enabled the "personalization" button in the Gemini app, for unrelated reasons, they now can't expect to compose a privileged email to their counsel. It's a min

I don't think that hot take will survive much contact with the near future, at least not without a good deal of controversy.

Heppner's argument was dumb but it opens a field of interesting questions. If I use a document processor (like Google Docs) to compose a message to my attorney, which message itself would be privileged, but I use some sidebar feature o

I would be more excited by this if there was a better permissions model for these things. For example I can think of a skill that would need access to a certain corpus of documents that I host on Google Drive, but, as far as I have been abl

I understand. But even people who get to the credits of Celeste might not be aware that they're maybe 20% of the way through the game.

A person who says that Celeste did not need all of its levels to tell its story did not pay any attention to the story, or is not able to empathize with the character. Also if this person bounced off Celeste then they probably saw 5% of the

I would just like to point out that this was one of the things that the AMP straightjacket prevented. The whole online news industry has conclusively demonstrated that it can't be trusted with javascript and must be hospitalized, but t

Considering that Firefox mainly appeals to its own contributors, making the developer experience better would be important.

Why not though? The entirety of the LLVM project is available to them, and you, for free, as is the RISC-V ISA itself. A lot of people are getting a lot of value from free and open software, and they may feel their contributions are in a li

For whatever it's worth, I doubt that filtering to the spam label automatically has the same feedback effect in Gmail as a manual spam mark.

Their reputation is probably so poor that GPT won't even show them.

There is no such thing as a third party oracle of reputation. If Gmail users say your behavior is spammy, then it is spam by definition.

There is a good reason for this. Part of Google maintains the principle that their own traffic has to go through the same classification process as all other mails. Other parts of Google can't stop themselves from sending spam from wha

Clearly, hitting a cache would be the better outcome. The technique suggested here could only apply to unavoidably cold reads, some kind of table that's massive and randomly accessed. Assume it exists, for whatever reason. To answer yo

The memory controller sends the read to the DIMM that is not refreshing. It is invisible to software, except for the side-effect of having better performance.

The line serves both states. Maine and Massachusetts are both in ISONE territory.

There are already systems that do this in hardware. Any system that has memory mirroring RAS features can do this, notably IBM zEnterprise hardware, you know, the company that this video promoter claims to be one-upping.

It is not only not practical, it is a completely useless technique. I got downvoted to negative infinity for mentioning this, but I guess I am the only person who actually read the benchmark. The reason the technique "works" in th

Indeed, considering the much of the cost in the end consists of carrying costs, litigation, and year-of-expenditure overruns that were caused by the delay.

Closed loop heat exchange costs more electricity. It's not a free lunch that data center designers are overlooking.

I don't know if that's really true. Given realistic life cycles of equipment (~10 years, not 3 as commonly believed) the operating power is going to be 75-80% of the TCO, or more.

As has been repeatedly demonstrated[1], it is the presence of new, large consumers that drives down the cost of bulk power by amortizing the infrastructure investments. Maine voters are, of course, notorious bozos in this field, having vote

EFF has basically only succeeded in defending Section 230, which makes me wonder if the people who talk in this article and the people elsewhere on HN denouncing Section 230 know about each other.

That's true. Every system has some quantum of storage that must be handled as a unit, whether that is a logical block that can only be discarded entirely or whatever. But I think the relatively gigantic immutable extents discussed here

The immutability of extents is dictated by their SMR hardware, I believe.

That worked because while the link may have been slow, it was circuit-switched and generally provided the 2400 bits. "Bad wifi" is unbelievably bad compared to an old dial-up link. It's so much worse than you're imaginin
