The largest benefit of microservices has always been lifecycle management, and "clear interfaces" in "modular monoliths" does not in fact solve that. If you update the logging libr…

I've had basic facts about mathematics which are wrong deleted in revisions by editors with no knowledge of the subject beyond having asked ChatGPT (which repeats the wrong shit on…

This is true, and at the same time, this article is absolutely rife with unsourced, unserious points. However insane Trumps plans, the fundamental "facts" presented here are largel…

That's only the case if you did PGO with "live" data instead of replays from captured runs, which is best practice afaik.

E.h., kind of. If you are allocating in a hot loop it's going to suck regardless. Object pools are really key if you want high perf because the general purpose allocator is way les…

It depends on how long the time you spend in your c function is. cgo has a substantial overhead for calling. I tend to prefer just writing ASM functions for critical path code. You…

So on point. We do _a lot_ of hand written SIMD on the other side (encoders) as well for similar reasons. In addition on the encoder side it's often necessary to "structure" the pr…

It's not like sabotaging German ships will cause Germany to increase military spending or fix the Bundeswehr's comically bad procurement process so there is little risk for Russia …

The US has banned foreign leadership of tv and newspapers since the 30s. At no point had the US ever really allowed foreign governments unfettered control over our media.

We've banned foreign ownership of traditional media channels since the 30s. We did not ban the propaganda but we did deplatform it.

What same-process modularization does _not_ solve is independent lifecycle management. In a monolithic system your change rate often becomes tied to your slowest, most bug prone mo…

Winning in bd rate though isn't hard. You need to win in bd rate and have a hardware implementable, power efficient, cheap decoder. Agreed hybrid presents real opportunity.

These sorts of models pop here quite a bit, and they ignore fundamental facts of video codecs (video specific lossy compression technologies). Traditional codecs have always focuse…

The thing I found interesting in the AVX512 gains over AVX2. That's a pretty nice gain from the wider instruction set which has often been ignored in the video community.

You've mis-understood. The 8tap filter is part of the HEVC encode loop and is used for sub pixel motion estimation. This is likely an improvement in encoding performance, but it's …

Yeah that's cookies. They are great.

I'm a huge fan of providing laymen explanations. And at some point if you _actually_ want to understand you have to stop using those and pickup and understand the math. http://ther…

Emacs has none of these problems :p

Sure, but you are most likely using these funds as core positions in an account which is SPIC covered to 500k. If you have more than 500k of assets in this form, you should have mu…

You missed the point. Most people take on debt when it's cheap (low interest) and take on savings when they have high returns (high interest). You save when interest rates are high…

You've a mis-understanding of how funds like FDLXX are managed. In a T-BILL only fund even a decrease in past asset value doesn't matter because they are by law managed to 1$ of ne…

Nope, my house loan is 2.3% my liquid savings in FDLXX are about 5%. What you are saying is only true if your debt is incurred at the same time as your savings are accumulated. Tha…

Depends on the money market fund. There are US treasury only funds like FDLXX, basically the only situation it would become unable to meet it's cash flow obligations is if there wh…

I think because there are some very unprofitable companies driven by engineers. You can't have an organization that is devoid of finance based drive. You need some balance, and it'…
