To add context, this is mostly because the numa properties get weird. With 2 sockets all of the inter-socket links can go directly to the other processor, and xeons have 2-3 of those currently. With 4 and 8 you end up having strange memory

I think they're mainly benefiting from the Trump era. When it ends, I think their subscription numbers will plummet, since there won't be so many shocking things happening every day.

Yes, this is as detailed as the last article about c++ vs rust microbenchmarks. Excellent content, and likely tooka really long time to write.

This book is worth checking out if you don't know c++17: https://www.bfilipek.com/2018/08/cpp17indetail.html?m=1 That guy has a great blog where he writes at length about each feature, and the book is a compi

That's the exact same thing every company in every business has to solve. What makes starlink unique in this case?
970.
by shaklee3 7y ago
That's pure speculation. There's nothing special about starlink for buying power. Anyone would have done it if a cheap solution/off the shelf was available.

To the best of my knowledge, they can make cheap phased array antennas that have poor performance. Poor performance can cut substantially into the overall satellite capacity, so the only way to make up for that is to charge more money. Then

Sorry, my point was that they really wanted the tech to work financially as well, and it's the closest to starlink that we have today. Iridium remains one of those stories for how things can be far more expensive than planned, despite

by shaklee3 7y ago
There have been many filings in the past to use them, but only iridium came to fruition.
974.
by shaklee3 7y ago
That's not really what drives cost in this case. That's a very small part of it, but the phased array aspect alone is expensive based on frequency, which they're using the same ones as GEO.

Black market for something that is clearly visible on your dwelling and can be seen by satellite is extremely risky. Black market for other things like movies make sense, because nobody knows you have them.

Right, so targeting is one thing, and $300 will certainly be a good price point. But we'll have to see if they hit it. Many, many others have tried and failed.

I think technology limitations. Directtv/dish would have used it already if it was cheap enough since it's easier to install.

Cell towers aren't a great comparison. They tend to heavily lump them in dense areas, and you have many companies who've built infrastructure in the same place to get to that number. SpaceX doesn't have as much control over c

Nk isn't even an issue since they won't let you buy the antenna. If you did, you'd likely go to jail.

This article seems to be trying to get to a conclusion without a lot of support. >This works out to be around $100k per satellite, more than 1000 times cheaper than a conventional comsat launch A standard comsat satellite can potentially

This is completely false. Which new technology do you think starlink satellite have that others don't? They're actually significantly less sophisticated than many older satellites. The only difference is they're planning to l

What about iridium? They didn't want to make it?

A starlink satellite only covers a small area. That's why they need 4,000 just to provide bare minimum service.
984.
by shaklee3 7y ago
Yes, that's naive. You need landing rights in every single country you plan to put a signal down in. There's nothing special about starlink; plenty of other companies have satellites that could cover those countries, but are not a

>The disadvantage is that you have to manually add an Envoy container and minimal config to everything you run, which people apparently hate. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think envoy (or istio, at least), uses a mutable admission

AMD has a search and replace library that's API compatible with many cuda functions now. It hasn't caught on yet, but if they release decent hardware soon, it might.

No one runs what way? Running with multiple NICs is very common. You can see in the graph that it peaks at line rate very early. Running a multiple NIC test would have resolved that.
988.
by shaklee3 7y ago
I don't understand articles that do benchmarks like infiniband or Ethernet, but set up a system where the nic is limiting the test. It would be useful to do the same thing with enough cards to saturate the memory bandwidth.

The main use case is I have a project with a setup.py that has the normal stuff in it, and there's a main entry point in one of the files. I then make a dockerfile that installs that package in a container and runs the main file as the
