AMD is yet to release a TSMC 5nm mobile part (low power 5nm), so the exclusive foundry lead Apple's been paying for is more like 2.5 years. It is my understanding that things are pretty much the same with TSMC's 3nm node. Apple's lead is all but guaranteed for at least a couple more years.

These 10900k or 11 series anecdotes always crack me up. I switched from M1 Pro to Ryzen 6800H and it feels just as fast as the much more expensive apple laptop. It's not even using TSMC 5nm like the new Zen 4 parts.

It only cost Otellini his cushy job

food provides nourishment. surely there must be other, more specific terms for these zero calorie "food" things

Ah, now I see your point. Still should not be called food, though. Unless I've been misusing the word my entire life

Zero calorie sodas are food?

Looked somewhat exciting until I saw the following: "From €749,70 Excludes Duties and taxes. Excludes Delivery"

That's a bit steep. I am all for OSS but comparable machines (even newer than Renoir) are considerably cheaper.

I've been toying with the idea of grabbing a 5800u/H unit off AliExpress since Pis have been hard to get by, and kind of old and slow. There was a 5800H/16/512 for just 300 euro last weekend. Kind of regret not pulling the trigger on that one.

Much better? Allowing JS on Ars is a recepi for data slurpocalypse. They've had 10+ ads and tracking third parties for at least decade.

I won't even touch on doxxing Snownden's girlfriend and the amount of questionable, at best, political content they publish on a daily basis.

Never heard of it. Show us this... the wheel

Only ThrowawayR2's people can bring salvation to the human race. Let there be one ruler, one king.

I am finishing up the third one and also have no idea.

Many people have thought about neutrino comms

"didn't know what to do with it" in a direst of times. It amazes me how selective people's memory is. Huang is not some amazing visionary. He's a ruthless businessman. Imagine if Intel had allowed him to steer that ship as he imagined all those years ago. Dark, dark times.

Current uses, with the notable exception of Quake 2 and possible that nvidia sponsored Portal mod, are pure gimmicks. The real thing requires ridiculous resources which are not available for real-time graphics.

If it works and everyone starts using it, then what do you think would happen?

Use "unknown" and TS complains that you're treating something as an object.

Use Object.defineProperties and TS complains because that stuff is invisible to it after how many years?

I think you're right, of course, but TS is hardly perfect and treating its ways as gospel is not an improvement over JS. The "right ways" change over time and beliefs are not shared among everyone.

Indeed. Who lets their girlfriend have another boyfriend?

been to countless electronic gatherings and can attest that streams are definitely a thing. finding the right spot to stand mostly still can be difficult

Interesting line of thought! Implicitly questioning the very existence of oil tankers and other infrastructure.

If by "sanctions" you mean assassinating their key scientist, Stuxnet and countless other sabotages, then yes, sanctions "work"

I find all this hate rather bizarre. Why do you even use the electron versions instead of opening things in browser tabs? I find all this hate rather bizarre.

> I disagree. The new 16" Macbook Pro design introduced in 2021 has fantastic speakers. They sound extremely good, and I'm not sure I would hear the difference to my 3.5" studio monitors in a blind test (assuming you volume match them).

That's rather hyperbolic. I think superlatives such as "fantastic" and "extremely good" should be reserved for stuff that's truly exceptional. I have a 14 inch M1 MBP and yes, the speakers are surprisingly good for what they are, but comparing them to monitors tells me your love for this product is clouding your judgement. Or that your hearing isn't all that great.

No. Plenty of white majority countries face the same problems. Corruption, incompetence and infighting are weapons disguised to look like "human nature" while someone else is sucking your blood.

It's still pretty bad compared to Ryzen 7000. The non-x models are just the regular guys at 65W, like my good ol 3700x.

That said, Intel sure has magic dust given how far behind their node disadvantage. Serves them right, though. What a horrible company.

Exactly. Besides, "pouring money into something millions would love" is an absurd statement.

1. Success is not guaranteed. At all

2. Things enjoyed by the masses don't need additional support to stay alive

Kind of the same crowd but how was/is /. anything like a old school forum? Format is pretty much what HN has emulated, no? Forums are different mainly because you can shit post without the stigma.

Not that I am complaining but this place often elevates pretentious, "high brow" shit posting as opposed to the vanilla thing practiced the us commoners. As if rich tech bro's trolling is better. Gotta say, this place really like smelling its own farts.

However, there's a lot of good stuff, too, and the moderation is better than /. where the majority of visible posts are made by the same 10 guys. Been like that for past 20 years.

Sorry. Got carried away. That beer had 7% alcohol in it. How is this place anything like the phpbb (now, xenforo) style forums?

Hmm, what is the highest paying JS job you have seen/heard of? I am not particularly good and by far the highest quote I've ever gotten was ~100k euro after taxes. Not bad at all but required relocation.

Just how much can a skilled JS dev get paid?

CAPTAIN: All aboard for safety and adventure on the rigid airship Excelsior, where the pampered luxury of a cruise ship meets the smoothness of modern air travel. Yes, when you fly Excelsior, you're flying in style and safety.

TIMMY: Safety? But isn't hydrogen flammable?

CAPTAIN: And how, Timmy. That's why Excelsior is filled with safe, natural helium. Why, it's actually flame-retardant.

TIMMY: Neat!

CAPTAIN: And safe. So, whether you're enjoying excelsior's majestic vistas, duty-free shopping, high-stakes baccarat, dancing with your lovely wife, or even a cigar after a french gourmet dinner, you'll be enjoying them in style and safety. All aboard Excelsior!

The one I really miss is techreport.com

Now, these guys used to deliver some quality stuff, including the big frame pacing thing that finally convinced the masses that no, fps number is not everything. One of the owners joined AMD and yeah, it's been dead for several years.

Community was quite nice, too.

Good thing you realized this is exactly what video codecs have been doing for decades. Thanks for the chuckle, though.

https://techpowerup.com is still alive.

I can think of a few others, including an offshoot of [H] called thefpsreviews.com but I've seen a lot of crappy, low effort "reviews" just in time for the "video cards are finally cheap" manufactured craze last year, which was last straw for me.
