It will be fewer accessible services for everyone who refuses to use this, that's for sure. In general though, service providers are not going to accept "fewer services and infinite fraud" and thus they will look into implementing this.

The direct consumption of oil and petroleum products from the conflict is trivial compared to marine traffic being restricted from passage through the Straits of Hormuz. ~20% of global crude production pass through the Straits.

If Intel's original 10nm process and Cannon Lake had launched within Intel's original timeframe of 2016/17, it would have been class leading.

Instead, they couldn't get 10nm to work and launched one low-power SKU in 2018 that had almost half the die disabled, and stuck to 14nm from 2014-2021.

However that type of test is generally bad because it more measures speed then skill.

Isn't speed and fluency part of skill and mastery of the material?

Just think about it - when was the last time you had a final exam where literally every person handed in the exam at the last moment. When i was in school, the vast majority of people handed in their exam before the time limit.

I think almost all of my high school exams and at least half of my college finals had >90% of students remaining in the exam hall when the proctor called time.

YouTube seems to be pretty explicit that it is paying 55% of revenue from watching videos to creators:

If a partner turns on Watch Page Ads by reviewing and accepting the Watch Page Monetization Module, YouTube will pay them 55% of net revenues from ads displayed or streamed on their public videos on their content Watch Page. This revenue share rate also applies when their public videos are streamed within the YouTube Video Player on other websites or applications.

Right now, they are not even making their own games exclusive to Windows Store or the XBox App (see MSFS 2024, Age of Empires series, Forza, etc...).

The other reason it is compared to the M2 is that there are no iPads with M3s in them, so it makes sense to compare to the processor used in the previous generation product.

Intel's Humbling 2 years ago

The chips Nvidia requires are a lot bigger (>800 mm2 sometimes) and they are much more expensive to make on a cutting edge process with relatively low yields compared to the 100-150 mm2 chips Apple wants for its Axx iPhone chips.

Mindshare is valuable, was the point GP was making. If midsize customers ignore you because you're too expensive, and then implement something else before they get big enough to afford you, where do you get new customers? Forget growth, how do you replace attrition as your existing customers die?

Somehow companies manage to make it work extracting money from your existing money-is-no-object customers. Oracle and IBM have basically zero mind-share amongst HN reading folks, but yet there they are.

Isn't that what the second line in the JavaScript snippet does: delete itself while the script is still in use (i.e. running?)

In any case, I am not sure the Unix way is the best API design here. Sure, it does help in these scenarios, but now you can have hidden files lying around in the filesystem being used that I can't easily tell are even there.
