Look at the main message: it wasn't malevolence, just incompetence and technical difficulties.

Lasers are so cheap these days. For $50 you can buy a DMX controlled 0.5W RGB laser from AliExpress.
I've been thinking about using them for Christmas lights.

If it was about control the carriers would block the SIM when it was moved to a different phone.

> according to a report compiled by a law firm investigating the incident. The law firm, Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, was hired by Cruise to determine whether its executives misled regulators
This is why lawyers are so expensive. Totally worth the money in this case to hire an "independent" auditor.

Given that people recommend pages like this to try fixing stuck bad pixels, makes sense that it could also break them.

And at memory stall they are exchanged with other waiting thread groups.
Just like HT.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Intel's next-gen Arrow Lake CPUs might come without hyperthreaded cores
But it is. GPUs have many more threads in flight than execution units.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Scientists report asymmetry between heating and cooling
Absolute zero is very far away for all practical purposes to act as a bound.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Scientists report asymmetry between heating and cooling
Depends on the climate.
Houses built in southern Italy are like that (white paint, shutters on windows, ...)
But in the Sweeden the opposite, optimize for heat.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Intel's next-gen Arrow Lake CPUs might come without hyperthreaded cores
Yet GPUs which take HT to the next level by having thousands of "hyper-threads" work very well for scientific computing.

When will the super-obvious Tether scam implode?
And why aren't they printing Tether right now to push the price back up?
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Intel's next-gen Arrow Lake CPUs might come without hyperthreaded cores
> However, a replacement for the traditional HT is likely to come in the form of Rentable Units, a more efficient pseudo-multi-threaded solution that splits the first thread of incoming instructions into two partitions, assigning them to different cores based on complexity. Rentable Units will use timers and counters to measure P/E core utilization and send parts of the thread to each core for processing.

There were discussions to put multiple cars in the same shaft. Obviously there are some complications.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: Elevator Expert on How to Move 10k People Up a 118-Floor Skyscraper [video]
Most modern buildings (2008+) don't have up/down buttons anymore, instead they require each person to input the exact floor they want to go to on a keypad. It's called "destination dispatch".

Classic marble architecture is considered racist and white supremacy adjacent these days.

The current advice is when you buy something to already think about the resale value of the item.
So this excludes all colors for everything. Black, white, gray everything.

The $10K system cost I mentioned is not for the review unit, but for a cheaper configuration with a Radeon RX 7600 GPU ($250). See last page.
juggertao | 2 years ago | on: System76 Thelio Major Powered by AMD Ryzen Threadripper 7000 Series Performance
The system is $10k, the CPU costs $5K, the rest of components at most $3K, so I guess that means $2K profit on each system?
