That was a good bit, but no, it was based on reporting about the connection mentioned in the link above, an investor having served on a board with CEO of In-Q-tel.
Read my other comments. It's a protest vote. They don't care what his actual policies are. No one is willing to pop the economic bubble, so voters are just going to burn the whole thing down.
Yep. It's ironic and shitty, but people just did a protest vote. They aren't looking at the specific proposals. They don't care anymore. You're absolutely right, but honestly both parties are completely in on the Ponzi scheme. So it probably doesn't matter.
Why did they mention "gaming performance" (i.e., frame rate change which isn't always directly connected to CPU performance) and not absolute performance (across a range of benchmarks)? The latter is more meaningful.
1) It's normal in these benchmarks to ensure the GPU is not a bottleneck, and use games that are primarily CPU bound.
2) The X3D CPUs are primarily aimed at people obsessing over getting another hundred FPS out of a ten year old game. The places where these CPUs outrun a similar priced CPU with standard cache design are niche, and specific games are one of the prime niches they do well in.
IMO ray tracing remains a gimmick and the die space would be better spent on more normal compute hardware. Basically every game that doesn't have a day/night cycle can prebake their lightning and have it look nicer than any possible real-time ray tracing. Ray/Path tracing does look nice in Cyberpunk, though.
I used a Surface Pro for 6 years and and haven’t missed the touch screen once since switching back to MBP 3 years ago. I would have missed the handwriting input but that’s what a low end iPad is for.
This happens whenever I load up one of our PyTorch models on my M1 MBP 16gb too. I also hate the part where if the model (or any other set of programs) uses too much RAM the whole system will sometimes straight up hang and then crash due to kernel watchdog timeout instead of just killing the offender.
This is almost completely undocumented outside of this HN post (check Google). Can you tell us more about what this does and how it is intended to be used? Thanks!
Even with antibiotics strep really sucks for kids (painful!) and parents (kid needs to stay home from school). Seems like there would be obvious demand. The article says the FDA banned testing for like 40 years due to a tiny issue during a trial in the late 20th century.
