Don't we have Nuitka for this?

Moving my crap onto an old laptop and some kind of tunnel thing ... tomorrow.

Those are some huge increases.

Right. But ... this would limit you to either extremely small models or extremely large FPGA's, yes? If there's a simple machine learning task that requires a sub microsecond latency I can see the point but otherwise??

Were you not into SDI for broadcast stuff?

The Nvidia NV1 mattered even if it was a misstep.

I'd say Voodoo 3 mattered because it killed 3dfx.

And the Matrox Parhelia mattered for much the same reason.

Ahhh, so is this a chip "more optimised" for connecting GPU's to reality ... or are they skipping the GPU step entirely? Are GPU's only for training now?

Damn, that's really impressive.

Likewise. It took me a while to "get" flutter but now I'm here, I 'aint leaving.

Couldn't you "just" use a honking fast SSD and set it as a swap drive?

"a thousand-day uptime shouldn’t be folklore"

I reboot a lot. Mostly I want to know that should the system need to reboot for whatever reason, that it will all come back up again. I run a very lightly loaded site and I highly doubt anybody notices the minute (or so) loss of service caused by rebooting.

Pretty sure I don't feel bad about this.

This is one of the things that changed when we moved from SATA to NVME. SATA has only a few "in flight" instructions and NVME does 64k.

Begs a question though: are there any NVME "spinny rust" disks?

There was a brief fascination with user mode TCP over DPDK (or similar). What happened with that? Can you get similar performance with QUIC? Does io_uring make it all a moot point?

Quite. I don't see why we need this in a world that already has Kevlar, Dyneema and Carbon.

Thing is, I have stopped expecting Xcode to be any good.

Actual native macOS/iOS development got beaten senseless when the App Store made it clear that "unsustainably low" was the expected price point for third party developers; and that Apple were treating the store more or less as a market research exercise and good ideas absolutely would be stolen.

So it's an internal tool, really. And we're I-guess-lucky that they document it and release it for the proles.

A built in task framework? Good BYE celery, you will not be missed.

Zephyr is not an OS in the conventional sense, it's more a library you link to so the application can "go".

Sorry, waveguide? For light? I thought that’s what fibre was.

And New Zealand

You have to remember it comes with a phenomenal debt load.

Awesome. Now do WiMax.

OMG I hated DCOM so thoroughly.

I'm sure someone in Cloudflare did the math before they went to court and decided their business in Italy was worth saving. If it was, say, the Channel Islands they'd probably just tell them to stuff it.

One nm wavelength? So this could be used as a source for photolithography?

Rackspace? Wooowww. Tonight I’m going to party like it’s 1999.

From my perspective, the Internet is strung together by a bunch of micro services - DNS here, email there, etc. etc. And that seems to work. They even seem to work together for the most part. I'm surprised that there have been all these problems with micro services, have they been overdoing the "micro" part?

I like how it has a suitably ASML price as well.

It certainly sounds like sea of cores. Didn’t intel get their arses handed to them trying this?

Strange things are afoot at the circle k.

Almost as an aside the article makes an interesting point: memory accesses can block. Presumably if it blocks because it's accessing a piece of hardware the operating system schedules another thread on that core ... but what if it blocks on a 'normal' memory access? Does it stall the core entirely? Can 'hyperthreading' briefly run another thread? Does out of order execution make it suddenly not a problem? Surely it doesn't go all the way down to the OS?

I still like Brotato.
