   I think that was the op's point.

   Noting the difference in humility between someone that has made the cut to participate in the IMO (6 people per country) and the multitude of retrospect prophets that trivialize the DeepMind achievement.

   not to be pedantic, but Deep Blue beat Kasparov in 1997.

   I'm at work and reading this article is the first thing I did this morning. What's your point ?

   > Most of DeepMind’s research is a cost-centre for the company. The effect of establishing oneself as the thought leader in a field is enormous. For example, IBM's stock went up 15% the month after they beat Kasparov.

   They do have 5" and 31.5" reflective displays though, they call them Reflective IGZO Displays.

   I don't know what I'm seeing, I missed the Apr/5 xkcd update, but this is fascinating! :-)

    Interesting summarization. For throughput/watt, nothing beats A100 40GB PCIe cards. In terms of throughput/$, 4090 cards are >8X better than the best H100.

    Google has done this. They did offer a paid version that didn't have ads, but few actually used it.

    Not odd at all! The bits-per-second rate that spectrum was getting from a tape was 1200 bps.

    Open sourcing would only guard against human programmers. The fact of the matter is, we don't _really_ know why LLMs work.

    Joins are great for OLTP workloads but are horrible for all but the simplest graph algorithms. A datalog-based system makes for a nice story, but it would not survive benchmarking. Pick a classic algorithm, say triangle counting, implement

    I'm curious to know why they compared with Gemini 1.0 Pro only.

    Coroutines. What a lovely concept! It's a joy to watch all the CppCon videos about C++ coroutines, primarily by Microsoft folks. "Negative-cost abstraction" is such a nice hook phrase. Friends at Meta mentioned to me a couple

    Thank you for sharing this link. The Gates building has changed so much over the last decade, it was nice to see it as it once was.

    Let me save folks some time and summarize the article: something happened 4bn years ago, it possibly created RNA, it might have created DNA after or concurrently (we don't know) and we definitely have no clue about how genetic code was

    Longer buffers allow for jitter in processing further upstream. If you get a buffer every 0.6ms, you need to be able to process it always within 0.6ms.

    That's what a 16-sample buffer would get you. In reality, there are many devices on the market that can get close to 2.5ms. For example, Line 6 claims 2.8 ms end-to-end, BOSS claims 2.3 ms [2], the NUX B8 is at 2.5ms [3]. [1] https:&#

    That must be the city's most moronic vandal. Waymo cars have so many sensors on them, they probably have his whole body captured in 3D.

    128-sample buffers are already too large. To compare, the nRF24 has a max buffer of 32 bytes. However, even in your 128 samples, 16bit/48kHz example, latency is a bit better. It will take 1000/48000 * 128 ms to collect the 128 sam

    Great article! Here's a perspective from a guitarist's viewpoint. Most wireless guitar systems boast latencies below 3ms, with the better ones being closer to 1ms. Latency is important here because even small delays can be felt by
