Note, the portions of DLSS4 that improve 2x frame generation performance/stability and the improved models for upscaling are coming to other rtx cards. DlSS4 multi-frame generation…

This is true, but it's worth noting that 3x was 5ms additional latency beyond original FG and 7ms for 4x, so the difference in latency between DLSS 3 FG and DLSS 4 MFG is probably …

Yeah perhaps times have changed. When I was an intern at JPL 10 years ago they brought some senior Netflix folks in to talk about their CDN reliability efforts and it was really im…

The interesting thing about this thought experiment is that you assume Netflix would have slightly above average employees if they have slightly above average compensation. Now wha…

Personally, I would not try to negotiate an onsite role into a remote one, not because I don't think it will work (though it probably won't), but because you don't really want to b…

Countdown to zero day is great. It straddles the line between technical and accessible to a wide audience well IMO.

Is this a joke? It's widely known by anyone paying attention that Democrats embraced mail-in voting much more aggressively than Republicans, especially in 2020.

Yeah you're correct. I mistakenly said unnamed due to the theory some people have that Theophilus was not a real person but is some kind of metaphor/personification of the church.

To be fair, I think the public bristled at the longshoremen strike because the vast majority of their leverage comes not from (most) of their jobs being particularly high-skill but…

Luke would have been literate. Paul states elsewhere that Luke is a physician, and in the book Luke states he was contracted by a third party to write the book.

Questions about authorship aside, note that only Matthew and John claim to be disciples/people who directly interacted with Jesus. Luke is purported to be a physician/associate of …

idk 2.5% yearly raise and 5% for promotions seems kind of meager to me. Seems like a yearly raise should both cover cost of living and throw in another percent or 2 to compensate f…

I played 40ish hours of Cyberpunk 2077 on m3 M3 Max MBP under crossover. Runs fine on medium/high settings.

I'm not talking about hardware. I mean perhaps the next Xbox will literally be a windows PC with a console-focused interface and the Xbox binaries and PC binaries of games will lit…

I don't think it's dying I just think things are shifting. More realistically, I think we're watching console gaming die right now (other than Nintendo). Neither Sony nor MS are do…

Fair enough, I suppose I could be overly optimistic. I just figure it's garnered enough interest that even if there's turnover in the team somebody will carry the torch. Especially…

Almost certainly. Asahi linux is getting pretty useable on M1 and M2. They don't support M3 yet, let alone M4, but support will surely come eventually.

Related question. For those who do any kind of programming for fun on the side, how do you feel about using tools like cursor for those projects. Is it a cool productivity enhancer…

RAM aside, it would be silly for you to ever buy this model for your use case anyway. This is the base M4 that's also in ipads with no active cooling. If your running large LLMs lo…

This is also the case in the US. The majority of college courses are limited to people within a given major and can't be taken by outside majors with limited exceptions.

Going to chime in. Young(ish) person in tech. Have heard nothing but great things about Bentonville. I'm into mountain biking and the city is like a spiderweb of awesome looking bi…

Note that the X37B has been flying since 2011 and is part of a larger program that has been ongoing at Boeing since the late 90s. It's likely that a lot of the hard work was accomp…

You mean PhantomWorks. Skunk Works is Lockheed Martin's advanced R&D arm.

This seems like a big assumption to me personally. To be clear, I happen to be of the opinion that AI/ML/LLMs/whatever cannot truly replace software engineers without the true adve…

Not sure about that, the consumer CPU market is probably more competitive right now than it's been in a decade, primarily on efficiency. Also not sure what that has to do with the …
