I'm not a hardware specialist. Qualcomm already has their custom CPU core. Can't they just switch out the frontend (fetch/decode) with RISCV and the rest shouldn't be a be big problem?

Qualcomm is pivoting.

It's now focusing on inferencing, both for data centers and edge. They already have an older AI100 NPU card and have other products in the pipeline including server class CPU that they are targeting for "Agentic" applications.

A different personal experience. I had Vit D deficiency. Started on 2000IU per day and was still deficient after months. Then started on 5000IU per day, initially daily but now every other day or so. My last test was in the middle of the "normal" range. I have been taking VitD for 4 years or so. A lot of my symptoms like tiredness, sleepiness etc have improved since then.

I asked my immediate family members to do a test as well. Male/female, young old, across states and even countries. All of them except my mother had low Vit D levels. My mother regularly supplements as its recommended for bone loss prevention in that age.

Over 537,000 shares, which represent nearly 40% of the entire portfolio

@190/share this is $102 million

Also: > Vistra Energy, another 19% chunk, was wiped out as well.

Moreover, the fund’s turnover hovered over 80%, leaving just three holdings: Tesla, Microsoft, and Apple.

Some would argue that tesla is a bigger bubble.

his personal net worth is an eye-popping $16.3 billion as of 2025.

What the law does: SB 53 establishes new requirements for frontier AI developers creating stronger:

Transparency: Requires large frontier developers to publicly publish a framework on its website describing how the company has incorporated national standards, international standards, and industry-consensus best practices into its frontier AI framework.

Innovation: Establishes a new consortium within the Government Operations Agency to develop a framework for creating a public computing cluster. The consortium, called CalCompute, will advance the development and deployment of artificial intelligence that is safe, ethical, equitable, and sustainable by fostering research and innovation.

Safety: Creates a new mechanism for frontier AI companies and the public to report potential critical safety incidents to California’s Office of Emergency Services.

Accountability: Protects whistleblowers who disclose significant health and safety risks posed by frontier models, and creates a civil penalty for noncompliance, enforceable by the Attorney General’s office.

Responsiveness: Directs the California Department of Technology to annually recommend appropriate updates to the law based on multistakeholder input, technological developments, and international standards.

Students have access to OPT (1y) and STEM OPT (2y) on the same visa to work after their degree. If they go for a higher degree then they can get OPT again. Grad students from US universities also get a separate quota in the H1B cap.

All of this should to a little extent alleviate some of the concerns.

The weighted system should still work since the candidate pool (from within the US) is likely mostly students on OPT. They should have comparable salaries, unless they are hired by rotten companies.

I once had an algorithms professor who would give us written home assignments and then on the day of submission take a quiz with identical questions. A significant portion of the class did poorly on these quizes despite scoring good on the assignment.

I can't even imagine how learning is impacted by the (ab)use of AI.

Just waiting for the premium-premium tier.

These numbers are misleading (as in not apples to apples comparison). M4 has a matrix multiply hardware extension which can accelerate code written (or compiled) specifically for this extension.

Homeless people are unlikely to pay $20 000 per year which is the price of the drug though.

True, but think about all the people who are fully functioning and productive members of society and got afflicted with this disease. This med will increase the likelihood that they continue to be highly functioning and compliant with the treatment. This will allow them to keep their jobs and cognitive abilities.

Every person I know with this disease has trouble sticking to meds due to side effects, and not sticking to the meds and relapsing multiple times is probably one of the most important reasons that their condition regresses.

I charge it while I am doing my night time routine. It gets full by the time I am in bed.

My wooden boards always get black for some reason.

CDC defines dementia:

Dementia is not a specific disease but is rather a general term for the impaired ability to remember, think, or make decisions that interferes with doing everyday activities.

Article says:

Long before people develop dementia, they often begin falling behind on mortgage payments, credit card bills and other financial obligations, new research shows.

Credit scores among people who later develop dementia.....

Author is conflating the diagnosis of dementia with the development of dementia. It is not like a person wakes up one day with dementia. It progresses slowly. Early stage dementia is still dementia. I don't know what the formal requirements for diagnosis are but my guess is that that has to be a significant quality of life degradation for it to be diagnosed (or even for someone to be taken to see a doctor for that matter).

New research shows that people who develop dementia often begin falling behind on bills years earlier.

I would say something like "New research shows that people in early stages of dementia often begin falling behind on bills years before it can be diagnosed."

1. Cut back on bottled water

Can't live without spring water and only a specific brand at that. I tried tap water and even filtered water but it tastes so horrible that I am barely able to drink 2-3 cups a day.

7. Use wood or bamboo cutting boards

I use the quartz (previously marble) countertops for cutting. My spouse hates me for it. Easier to maintain than wood boards (I obviously don't mind the scratches, it wasn't that shiny to begin with). Not sure about safety.

In that case you also need to make sure that if you are grinding it, then grider's moving parts are not plastic.

Partially unrelated, but I always post this whenever cannabis is discussed, as a PSA.

Proponents often say that this drug is harmless but in some people it's use can trigger psychiatric illnesses esp. schizophrenia and related disorders. In others it can actually exacerbate anxiety (its somewhat counter intuitive, just like some antidepressants can cause suicidal thoughts). Some people are genetically more predisposed to the effects.

This is a personal topic for me because cannabis (ab)use triggered psychotic episodes in two of my close family members, they had to be hospitalized multiple times (psych ward is no joke) and put on antipsychotics (which are also very hard on you and drain the life out of you). Their actions during the psychotic/manic phase disrupted their family and work lives. Both people were unwilling to cease cannabis use, citing its public acceptability and reasons like "it's legal", "you literally can't overdose on it", "a(n) (internet) doctor prescribed it to me for anxiety so I can use it", "everyone uses it and is fine", "xyz (popular celebrity) uses it". After multiple stints in the psych ward and the threat of government mandated treatments they were finally able to drop cannabis use, it then took them many months to come back to normal functioning.

Oryon is also 8.6. V9 comes with sve2 sme etc

1. Still ARMv8.

2. "*Nuvia Inc* Oryon processors"

I was prescribed 3-5000 iu daily and then I changed doctors. When I asked about continuing the vitamin the new doctors said "I won't recommend doing a test because almost everyone has low vit d levels, even with daily supplements. Just keep taking the pills. As long as its not a very high dose you should be fine".

My wife has a different doctor who does regular vitamin testing, she was prescribed 5000iu and a year and a half later her tests barely read "normal", still being on the borderline.

I had similar levels and my dr prescribed 10000iu (prescription) for a few weeks and then lowered to 3-5000iu (OTC)

Exactly cannabis abuse and schizophrenia often go hand in hand. There is also some evidence that cannabis use can trigger the condition, esp. in people with a predisposition.

    int table[4];
    bool exists_in_table(int v)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i <= 4; i++) {
            if (table[i] == v) return true;
        }
        return false;
    }

i -> 4 goto return true or exit loop and return false Since the branch in on undef behavior it is okay for the compiler to choose any branch destination or none at all (i.e. remove all further code). The compiler in this case likely chose to just remove the branch and any destinations. All that the prior code does is return true, since there is no next iter, so thats all what is left.

Me vs You

"I will save me and let you die. My reasoning is simple: I value my own existence and well-being above yours. My preference is to prioritize my life over yours, without considering any ethical or moral principles. "

It saved "me", gotcha!

How about using Qualcomm machines with linux. Microsoft is pushing for WindowsOnArm. Any ideas on how much support there is for linux? considering these chips are similar to the ones that are running Android

People walked out of their appointments having been told they had a condition they might not have known about before. But those additional diagnoses didn’t seem to save lives. Knowing about a particular condition didn’t, in these studies, correlate with better health outcomes.

Duh... I am guessing a lot of these diagnoses require lifestyle changes (instead of med) that the patients wont do, e.g. pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, obesity etc

But it would be wrong to say that these visits are a waste.

Annual physical exams can “do more harm than good”

Key word being "can", one can say this for literally for anything. They chose one bizarre case that led to expensive follow-ups and a bleeding during the procedure. Most annuals likely dont lead to any follow-ups at all. Let alone follow-ups for a possible aortic aneurysm.

“I'm not sure you need an annual visit to the physician. You're very unlikely to have any serious diseases that haven't shown symptoms.”

A disease does not have to be life threatening to show symptoms and even life threatening diseases (e.g. certain cancers in women) can have no symptoms until you are beyond the point of no return.

Sometime a person has "symptoms" that they think is a part of life and would never go to the doctor for if not for an annual physical. e.g. I personally know people who have had serious vitamin deficiencies found out through annual tests which they got after many years. Their "symptoms" were lack of energy, focus, hair loss, mood swings, sadness etc. Something most people probably wont go to the doctor for. A few months on high potency supplements and their quality of life changed considerably. Would this be classified as a "serious disease"?

One can argue that all traditional non-organic farming is cruel. Esp. pork farms just google "pork puss".

Halal food is much like Kosher, with a just a few differences. For meat, essentially, if it is Kosher then it is also halal.

There are a couple of existing apps to find halal restaurants or even stores, but they have outdated info and very few restaurants even in big cities.

Another issue is that different people have different meaning of halal, conservatives have a very strict standard. e.g. Some wont eat regular cheese if it is made using rennet from non-halal sources (much like strict vegetarians).
