Check out Asahi Linux, they run on Apple Silicon and have translation for 32 and 64 bit x86, so they even go further than what Rosetta achieved. Open Source as well.
The article states that they added a computational correction step which is run whenever a result might be incorrect but skip it most of the time.
I am wondering whether this might cause problems for small real-time systems that do not have an FPU. If the runtime cost of an operation depends on the input, it is very hard to figure out whether deadlines can be met in all operation conditions.
Great post, the fusion of scale with unit is a mess.
When using it as a factor, for example when describing attenuation or amplification it is fine and can be used similar to percent. Though the author is right - it would be even more elegant to use scientific notation like 1e-4 in this case.
For using it as a unit it would really help to have a common notation for the reference quantity (e.g. 1mW).
But I guess there is no way to change it now that they are established since decades in the way the author describes.
Yep, in a real situation the player would be constantly moving around collecting hp/ammo/weapon, losing health/ammo to monsters... all these would cause the status bar to be frequently updated.
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.
Because the prices are not competitive enough for hobbyists. How can you expect people to adopt and develop on top of your chips if they can't afford it?
I could see that in the coming years the value of Waymo for Google is not actually in collecting revenue from transportation fees but to collect multi modal data to feed into its models.
The amount of data that is collected by these cars is massive.
The position of the guitar in stereo is all over the place, higher frequency elements appear to come from the left while other parts are more centered.
At the same time France had to buy loads of electricity from Germany in the last year because several nuclear plants had to shut down due to a) maintenance problems and b) low rivers that could not provide sufficient cooling.
Ironically, I hear the ones that were shut down in Germany were some of the best maintained in the world and had very high "capacity factors" even when compared with other nuclear (fraction of time delivering power to the grid). It seems like the solution to poor maintenance is better maintenance? Some of the causes of recent poor French maintenance are analyzed here: https://player.fm/series/decouple/somethings-rotten-with-fre...
I assume you wouldn't seriously argue that rivers are the limiting factor to deployment of nuclear energy.
Being “anti nuclear” made a lot of sense until a madman decided to attack Ukraine.
And with the world economy stabilizing after that mad man’s actions it’s again making a lot of sense as nuclear continues to be far more expensive than other renewable alternatives.
It's cheaper to run your 30 year old, perfectly fine, perfectly safe, well-functioning nuclear plant than to build and run a new natural gas plant - which is what Germany decided to do.
You also pay for quality control.
Cheaper brands often have decent audio quality on average but high variation in between individual pairs of headphones. They also tend to fall apart after 1-2 years of use in my experience.
