Seriously. This is standard public relations practice. Everyone should have a list of press contacts and influencers. This is the wrong hill for liberals to die on.

Why make a new database when they could just use Cision? Does government not already use that?

Technically Tesla cars have an infinite higher death rate than the cars with zero fatalities.

They don't even have the hardware equivalent of a human driver. People's eyes can detect individual photons, at much higher resolution and dynamic range than a typical camera.

GM's well reviewed SuperCruise focuses on monitoring the driver so that the driver is paying attention to the road. That's what 'too good' is supposed to be.

They honestly didn't have to abandon that. They should have told the complainers to just suck it up, and this is how editing works. Editing means people are going to be unhappy. You are taking a certain viewpoint, and are literally fil

What YouTube needs are editors. Editors get to tell people that their content is garbage or great. The problem with social media is that they don't have people telling the public that their ideas are crap, so everyone thinks they'

You know, the article refers to Windows ARM emulation, but I now see the Intel post as a warning to Apple, as patent licensing discussions may have started about that time last year. It usually takes 4-5 years to design a chip, and if Apple

My only question is if they actually use ARM for their next-generation architecture, or something completely new...
222.
by mozumder 9y ago
It's more of a logarithmic scale. The same architecture can generally scale to 10x over a few process generations.

Artificial benchmarks do a great job of capturing performance, since they're more controlled and eliminate unnecessary variables. Once you understand this, then you can understand how CPU designers work to predict future performance. C

Those are multi-core numbers, not the single-core numbers. What do you think is the most important for 250million desktop users? Because the vast majority of them are sitting idle waiting for interaction tasks, like on your system now.

And some of us, with actual CPU design backgrounds, have been saying that for a while now. We've been asking why Apple doesn't already do it.

Computer architectures routinely see 3x performance jumps across different power budgets. This rule has held over decades. Clock speeds alone can probably increase by 30%. Caches and internal datapaths can double or more. Then you can star

When Apple switches, their processors are likely going to be 2x faster than Intels. It will be a huge jump.
228.
by mozumder 9y ago
I'd expect a huge performance jump when the new ARM-based Macs come out, both in Single-core (they can ramp up the clocks and increase cache and execution units) and Multi-core (they can add more cores to fit new power budgets as well)

It's gotten a lot larger this election cycle, though. Trump really enabled the liberal base, enough so that you hear talk about repealing the 2nd amendment.

OK now you have to prove that Disney/CNN/etc. is pushing a pro-abortion agenda. Or that they're pushing government to limit your rights to free speech or religion. Where did Disney & CNN say government should limit your r

OK but now you have to explain why pushing a "left wing agenda" is supposed to be scary. Was it voting rights? Is voting rights scary? Or perhaps universal health care? Is that scary? Or a public education? Wooow that's RE

I've had 2 of those cars - the Sorento and the Odyssey, and they both feel really tactile/agile to drive, as well as being chill, relaxing rides.

I mean, if Tesla is comparing their luxury car's death rates to motorcycles, which have 10x-50x the fatality rate of passenger cars, then, yes, it's dangerous. Remember, there are several very normal cars models that have had ZERO

OK but now you've limited your applications to non-mobile devices, unlike LTE. And if they're targeting this for cellular base-stations, they're now on the hook to provide an even larger aggregate bandwidth to share among hun

by mozumder 9y ago
This is a discussion about low bandwidth. Why are you talking about latency?
238.
by mozumder 9y ago
Nah, they can want infinite speeds, but they're only going to get a few megabits of speed. It will be much slower than LTE, since the satellites are going to be about 100 miles away. LTE towers are only a few miles away. How do you exp

by mozumder 9y ago
The developing world needs fiber instead of satellite. This isn't going to change much over their current LTE speeds. This type of satellite internet is far too expensive far far too limited bandwidth to be useful for them. The energ

I'd love any tips on speeding up app-switching on my 6+. I measured it this morning and it takes about 10 seconds to switch apps. And that's AFTER I turned off as many notifications as I could, and reduced Mail accounts to only 1
