The latency is going to be much too high, when the performance numbers turn up people will decide they don’t want it. A similar thing happened with Intel Optane (which is now dying).

If you are getting earnings from SEC then you’ll have US only and it’ll arrive a week after they are announced (unless you have a human listen to the earnings call and input them).

Capital IQ is also pretty good, although not as good as Bloomberg.

I actually ran a private DSLAM to get internet between upstairs and downstairs in my house only a few years ago (not a joke, G.fast).

Where would he get the many expensive FPGA boards from that need providing for free? Maybe get a sponsor, Microsoft for example, oh wait.

A generator that itself is not recommended as it’s both very slow and fails many tests. The xorshiro generators are much better.

Technically speaking the Dow would not be a passive investment (by the definitions above), as it’s not market cap weighted.

I would guesstimate low single digit microseconds (and guesstimating latency is pretty much my job). Typical USB poll rates are 10-100 milliseconds . AMD made a perfectly sensible choice.

There was once stackless python that did this (Eve online was built in it), I don’t know if it still exists though.

I think there are many cases where they need to be different, for example if you want to do any kind of post-processing on the final image.

1.33% using interactive brokers, that’s variable but you could swap it to a fixed rate by using eurodollar futures.

On a modern x86 cpu the ‘xchg’ instruction performs a swap and can do so entirely in the front-end via register renaming. It doesn’t even require a micro-op. This ‘trick’ actually requires executing micro-ops and creates an unnecessary data

These are reflectarray radars, not AESA. No crazy specialist components are really required, just a lot of PIN diodes. I'm sure those can be made in Russia.

It’s very easy, this kind of testing is crucial for hardware (in a way that it is not for software). At the most basic level this is done through scan, which allows you to test every single wire in the design for several faults (stuck at 0

This. Otherwise what would be the point of chiplets? (aside from being able to mix process nodes as appropriate / cost-effective). Of course this is why what Cerebas is doing (and what the article is about) is stupid. For those who are

Yes it does, but that just means you want to use as little power as possible (which is presumably already the case). That effect is actually so bad that I have previously experienced thermal runaway due to it (more power => higher temper

I would have thought this approach would cause issues for leakage power? Better to run fast then sleep and power gate to cut leakage, especially at smaller geometries. Or do you think they are mostly using HVt cells?

You'd be fine, because any kind of matter that you could stick your head into is incapable of reaching negative temperatures.

No you're quite right, that's why I said "...maximum energy states (this is assuming there is one)". Of course with no upper bound on energy this isn't possible, that's the definition straight up, just like you
112.
by jleahy 5y ago
No, it does not. In a closed system if you add enough energy the temperature will eventually become negative (after ‘passing through’ +inf). As you reach a state where almost all particles are in their maximum energy states (this is assumin

Due to optimisations similar to those in this article. The asymptotically faster algorithms are not useful in practice.

The sale to Kraft came first, I distinctly remember because they promised the British government they wouldn’t move production out of the UK then did shortly after the acquisition closed.

Pretty much anything. How about a Dell R340 with a dual-10G NIC and some SSDs? That's not commodity, that's cheap, a commodity server would be a dual-Xeon but that's overkill for serving 16gbps.

Depends on the dialect, “toss me the f*ing salt, would ya” is also acceptable. (edit: but after writing this I note that ‘would ya’ is a contraction of ‘would you kindly’, so maybe I have defeated my own point)
