Very interesting to see. Efficiency (E) cores use only 7% of the energy that Performance (P) cores do performing the same task and take about 4x as long to do it. So about 13.5x (23 J when run on P cores, and less than 1.7 J when run on E c

There is no way Hong Kong has moderate proficiency and German has high proficiency. It's a bullshit list. This is coming from a German living in Hong Kong.

What streaming service even does 128kb/s? Youtube is the only one that comes to mind and that's for free usage only. Paid accounts get 256kbit AAC Spotify uses OGG Vorbis codec and streams at 160 kbps at standard bitrate and 320 k

And they still make noise like in the 1920s with their silly horns. I was once visiting a friend who lived near those housing developments that are all along the Caltrain tracks in the South Bay. I almost lost my hearing. It was insane. No

Besides buzzword bingo and investor hard ons, please explain why something like a tax return (IRS) would need "AI tools". I'd love to know. It's a straightforward calculation that needs accuracy. The opposite of what AI

No way to just immigrate to the US but thanks for your comments. I do appreciate it.

Oh 100%. But of course I am not limited to HK at all (in fact I am planning to move to AU next year as I got permanent residence there through their Global Talent visa programme). But nothing there either. And I'm not limiting myself

There are no jobs. I've been looking for two years. A couple of humongous rounds of interviews (one company in Sydney had me do 15 interviews plus a presentation, plus meetups with the CEO for lunch and the CTO and a case study), all f

Mine has been telling me I got very low VO2Max of 26 every day, for years. No matter if I work out or do nothing or go on a 5 mile walk or whatever. Let's just say I take Apple Watch is the gimmick it is. Nice for notifications and se

May I suggest a merger of intel with Boeing? Two back-in-the-day engineering driven future-forward companies and today run into the ground by Quarterly Reports And Nothing Else Matters culture and meandering around. They'd be a lovely

Corporates will soon have to realise the hard reality that when masses of humans have been replaced there won't be masses of humans with salaries to buy said corporate's goods anymore.

Surely the prospect of a nice little multi billion dollar defense contract from Trump would have nothing to do with it https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/4954591-trump-meets-bl...

So we have reached the intimidation phase of this election, where businesses owners fear repercussions from Trump (or standing up against him) and his entourage for not supporting him. Reminds me of a certain time in history.

My 70+ year old aunt and 75year old mom (at the time) were using the very first (heavy and clunky) iPad. It was a device that immediately appealed to certain people for who full on computing was too much, when all they wanted to do was read

by ulfw 2y ago
Well it's a device for people sitting at home alone. So yes I agree. But not just because of bubble spending. Now that we are all more social again, the point of a device that shuts you out of the world is a bit... less useful.

It does say a lot about demand though. You don't discontinue production on something when you have no successor coming soon unless you vastly overestimated demand.

Then what's the point of the event if you can't even show a prototype? A big announcement of "a promise in the future"? Like hyperloop or "rockets flying from New York to Tokyo and to Mars in 2024"? Or the 2017
