To be fair, the article calls that out specifically at the end: > What makes this especially frustrating is the lack of transparency. Every other ADS company in the NHTSA database, Waymo, Zoox, Aurora, Nuro, provides…
“Lacking” implies it’s an unintentional deficiency. Rust has deliberately taken a “batteries not included” approach due to learned experiences in python, where many std-lib packages are basically abandoned/not…
> But it is a problem, because somewhere along the line one of those indirect dependencies is going to start conflicting with something else in the graph; the bigger the graph, the more conflicts. Rust is statically…
Why do you say shuffle is “SIMD’s killer app”? I’ve only dabbled in vector instructions from a learning perspective, and seen others mention it’s important too, but have yet to understand why.
Those numbers aren’t directly comparable — caches usually trade off size for performance, and Apple’s L1 sits in performance somewhere between Ryzen’s L1 and L2. Ditto for Apple’s L2 versus Ryzen’s L2 and L3. I can’t…
Road/car dominance wasn’t exactly established in a free market either. There’s a whole host of subsidies for building/maintaining roads paid for by everyone [1]. There’s the regulatory advantages driving has (ex: the…
Jane street had a puzzle related to this, called eldrow [1], a few months ago. The gist is you’re trying to find the worst sequence of (hard mode) guesses possible for any word in the wordle set. Their site shows…
I’m not sure how fuschia does it, or how feature-based capabilities work, but Cheri[1] uses capabilities for memory management and isolation. It uses a couple of techniques, like wide/tagged pointers, object ids, and a…
The memory ordering is different, too. Apple gets around it by adding support for intel ordering in the m1 cpus, and then changing to that mode on a per-process basis.…
The typing (>= python 3.6?) and collections (>= python 3.8?) packages have definitions for a bunch of protocols (basically interfaces for structural typing). So for that List[int] example, you probably want to take a(n)…
I would argue the M1 Pro/Max are targeted at much higher end workloads than an i3. Light workloads (web browsing, launching apps), don’t need many high performance cores, since they’re mostly single-threaded. What is…
