There are asics for ai. They're called gpus / tpus.

My brain initially parsed the title as an obituary title and I was really sad for a moment.

In my experience, a grad student hour is treated as free :(

It was ahead of its time!

When I was in grad school I tried getting my hands on a phi, it seemed impossible.

Stock price by itself is meaningless. Instead what you want is market cap (number of shares x share price).

"He noted that taking ivermectin and fenbendazole to treat the cancer did not work"

Reminds me of how in the original the matrix plot the humans were being used for compute power, but the studio execs decided audiences wouldn't understand it.

The Jeff Goldblum virus one?

I believe fans have provided a retroactive explanation that all our computer tech was based on reverse engineering the crashed alien ship, and thus the arch, and abis etc were compatible.

It's a movie, so whatever, but considering how easily a single project / vendor / chip / anything breaks compatibility, it's a laughable explanation.

Edit: phrasing

You realize correlation does not imply causation?

Edit: this was written before OP edited their comment

They must have thought it's _so_ clever that the screw/bit is their logo.

"every engineer"? Should a chemical or nuclear energy engineer have to know about PoE?

Love the rotring pencils.

If you haven't already, give the Alvin Draft/Matic a try, imho it's up there along with them.

Literally the plot of Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Devil's advocate: this would be unacceptable for os kernels and super performance critical code (e.g. hft).

Was this released in error? One would think it would be accompanied by a press release / blog post.

Wow. Is that a typo for death? Not only do they not value human life much at all, losing multiple limbs is more than dying?

Fwiw, Google X predates the Twitter -> X rename by more than a decade.

"Sans stagger — I’m not against stagger, I just love the neat look of a pain rectangle." [sic]

What an apt typo :)

Pizza Hut outside the US

Fyi, while Nordic products are usually excellent, they did not design the wifi ics. They bought a company and slapped their name on the chips. I haven't used them yet, but from what I've heard they don't live up to Nordic's standard.

Edit: also afaik they don't have a mcu+wifi in one yet.

Fun fact, these two very similarly named diodes are completely different

<Surprised Pikachu face>

Who would have thought simpler physics are easier to regress against /s

Could you elaborate?

Very cool. Any idea if it contains mercury?

Citymapper has been able to tell you what stop you're at for many years (at least on the NYC subway). How does their solution work?

Can anyone here with connections to CppNow get them to upload a corrected video? The lecture and the slides are out of sync.

Technically the smallest addressable piece of memory is a word.

The other part of it is the complete and total apathy of drivers. They'll hear/see an ambulance in their rearview and despite having sometimes the option to move to the side, will just sit there, expecting someone in another lane to move out of the way.

Does anyone have any knowledge/understanding on how this is (or isn't?) fundamentally different from Intel's Xeon Phi?

This guy created a hobbyist version. Very impressive.
