The first sentence is almost completely subjective, and the leading fact in second sentence gives the best evidence against an overpass in this thread. The only thing that is going to make this more obvious to the mountain lions would be a few more dead deer carcasses as a result of the car lights! lets jump off the side into oncoming hidden traffic behavior.

I already saw that video and my comment reflects what he states that underpasses usually cheaper than overpasses like this (9:10); given that fact more (culverts - 9:30) could be built for the more numerous non-apex species that do not lend well to being diverted miles to such a monstrosity. Of the listed species expected to benefit from this crossing including bobcats, coyotes, gray foxes, birds of prey, skunks, rodents, American badgers, American black bears, fence lizards and mule deer only the mule deer have may be having herding behavior causing carelessness to not use such an underpass.

Intel's Xe2 GPU architecture works well as an efficient iGPU and has market fit there. The problem is taking it the other way to discrete high end and data center rather than the opposite as NVidia has done with GPUs and AMD with CPUs. Using the low power consumer target to experiment on architecture and new nodes that then scales to the high end has been Intel's strategy ("efficiency" cores) is logical from a foundry perspective for monolithic chips. But Intel has failed to execute in the new AI data center investment reality. Where are the GPUs from Gaudi 3? Pat: "Putting AI into all the chips, not just ones in the cloud, might be more important in the long run" maybe, but failing to win where the money is at now is a huge barrier to surviving in that long run.

With the B770 16GB gone and the idea for the B580 to be cheaper than current 7600 XT @ 16 GB by cutting 4 GB makes Battlemage DOA. A gamer making an investment on a card for ~3 years cares less about spending ~$30 more vs being unable to run high resolution texture packs on a gimped GPU. The XMX cores are superior for AI for a month until Blackwell with smaller 2 and 4FP units, but a month is too little lead to overcome the CUDA software inertia. The next beancounter CEO gets the gift of terrible sales numbers and the excuse to drop the prices to move them out before RTX 5000 & RX 8000 competition hits.

The public are smarter than you give them credit for. For the most part space missions are contests between governments and those governed with science as a consolation price. If you are part of team A do you want to have to come up with reasoning on why you lost? No. Does anyone care if a billionaire's toy gets blown up? No. The obvious choice to eliminate all risk would be not to play, but that is not an option; the other is to delay and delay some more. Thus, SLS.

Psychology is literally the study of the soul and life, but has been more recently understood to be of the mind and behavior. The closest science may be behavioral as "mind science" seems undiscussed, but topics named science refer to themselves as a science not that they are practicing as such, but so as to avoid through an appeal to the language authority the possible argument that they lack it. If a Greek derivative was desired for the study of the mind, then it might be dianoialogy.

they're disabled so the others can have their L3 cache and so they can pick the two cores from each CCD that hit the highest clock speeds

what or where does that follow from? One can take a CCD with 2+ cores and pin a process to a set (of the fastest) cores based on profiling the cores and those 2+ cores could use the L3 cache as needed; disabling cores at the hardware level is the waste as if they were not disabled, then that would allow other processes to be able to benefit from more than 2 cores to run when desired. The latter point of disabling cores for "better [frequency] performance per core Which some people will pay a premium for" is dubious especially for the Epyc server line. If that were true, then there should at least be 4 core or fewer SKUs for desktop Ryzen variant where apps like games are more likely to benefit from the higher clock.

I refused to buy the so determined defective chips even if they represented better value because if the intent was truly to try and max yield then there should be for Ryzen for example good 7 core versions with only 1 core that was found to be defective. Since no 7 core zens exist, then at least some of the CPUs with 6 core CCDs have intentionally had 1 of the cores destroyed for reasons unknown, which could be to meet volume targets. If this is because for Ryzen the cores can only be disabled in pairs, then it boggles my mind that it would not be economic given the $ diff of tens to hundreds of dollars between the 6 and 8 core versions that is does not make sense to add the circuits to allow each core to be individually fused off and allow further product differentiation, especially considering how much effort and # of SKUs have been put forth with the frequency binning in AM4 (5700x, 5800, 5800x, 5800xt, etc.), rather than bigger market segmentation jumps.
