These days, a one-off PCB is dirt cheap. They’ll provide and solder the components for you, for less money than you could buy them to do it yourself.
“encodes video at 640MB/s” is the common way for codec authors to talk about performance
"Economic migration" is a (usually derogatory) term for moving into a country to earn more money, with no desire to adapt to the culture of your new home.
I mean, "no microprocessor" means no engine designed in the past 30 years, because the fuel pump needs one. "No antenna/modem I can't readily remove" might be _slightly_ more achievable.
I think it aligns incentives way better (but is almost impossible to set up).
At the scale DCs are operating at, losses from flexible tubing are not negligible either. 1gw of power converts approx 400 liters of cold water into steam _per second_.
In terms of severity, Chernobyl was a long way from the worst case. If the core had melted down to a body of water, the steam flash could have vaporized it & ejected it high into the atmosphere. That's city-ending, if…
> even an old one My overlocker was made in West Germany (when that was a country), and is still going strong. Threading was a bit tricky the first few times, but the manual is really exceptionally well written.
I'd make a stronger claim: there is (today) _no such thing_ as a "neutral observer". Our state of mind is a product of our own senses and experiences; we can't hope to comprehend 100% of the relevant facts. A statement…
Okay that’s super interesting and I would love to see an example or writeup - I have a project which would benefit from being able to do that.
The confusion is, in part, because one of the functional underpinnings of capitalism is “make a bet” as a method of allocating resources. Those whose bets paid off didn’t “earn” the money, they “won” it. Calling it…
It is, but… you’ve seen the marketing material being put out? “AGI is just around the corner and could destroy humanity if we don’t solve alignment” is something AI leadership at multiple companies have publicly said.
Js modules don’t work on file urls (classic js does).
Those provisions would broadly be civil (not criminal); the vendor would have to identify you had reversed the blob and then take you to court, and then win. They could also try for criminal charges if you’re in a…
Thanks!
How tied is the implementation to time specifically? Can it apply to other types (eg geometries) which can be subdivided?
Given that they implement connection pooling and sharding, I'm going to say "not at all". You _could_ make that ACID, but it's not going to be faster than a single machine.
Usually after you solve the POW challenge, sites let you make a lot of requests before asking you to complete another.
I hate that sort of thing - when I rolled my own proof-of-work bot protection (providers wanted $$$$), I set it up so that A) you'd have to open >200 tabs, and B) if any tab solves the proof-of-work, any that are still…
Or fastly, or akamai, or bunny, or any number of other providers. Cloudflare are merely the cheapest of the bunch.
It's circumstantial evidence, but Occam's Razor also applies. It's not a hostile DOS in the traditional sense (I've mitigated a few of those) - no "pay us to make it stop", no pattern to the requests other than "fetch…
They showed up when the AI money did. The evidence is circumstantial, but… some of them are remarkably well engineered (from a “how difficult is it to identify this traffic” perspective, in a way that never existed…
I more meant "I had 200m in the bank and accidentally spent 170m of it to start constructing a police HQ". If you bulldoze a building when it's only 2% of the way through being constructed, you should probably be able…
Spent a bit of time with it. Biggest peeve so far: It's very easy to build the 'premium' version of a building (eg police HQ instead of police station) and utterly annihilate your city budget - with no ability to cancel…
One has 1:2 fanout, the other has 1:50 fanout.
