There is no data to suggest RISCV can ever be competitive in the large core space. The longer this absence goes on (now approaching 15 years) the more evidence there is that it is structurally incapable of competitive implementations.
If you wanted to create a project to distract a whole generation of computer architects from getting anywhere this is exactly what it would look like.
At some point we have to accept it isn’t happening.
The telling thing is in benchmarks the Loongson outperforms them, by a lot.
Parfait.
Dutch intel can think that happened, or not. It is independent from if that is true. The whole thing equally sounds like a setup using the Dutch to launder the story.
Which is also entirely independent from any stories of this sort in the media being true one way or another.
Postgres fanboys are insufferable.
There is clearly a trick to coaxing these results, and a major factor is to treat the model like it is something you fully expect to get it right because it knows how to do it, not you micromanaging it into compliance.
Treat it like it’s got an inspired brilliant side, talk to it as if it has, and it will show it. If you talk to these things like they’re idiots they act like them - this is one of the most unfortunate aspects of the whole development.
I am seriously seeing it churn out well structured clean code solving problems that saying 95% of devs couldn’t do is being generous, to the humans.
Opus 5.5 produces code far better than 95% of professional devs, and it only stands to get “worse” from here on out.
Quite where this leaves any of the people in these information processing jobs is anyone’s guess.
Even in the good times their ability to create (and hide) black holes was prodigious.
The level to which German society proscribes behavior top down with the law simply wouldn’t be tolerated across the spectrum for the simple reason no one would agree what the rules should be, even if they share the European idea that everyone else should follow the rules they personally support.
Back when it was obj-c with cocoa the quality was night and day higher than it is today. Not too long ago I booted my G4 and was stunned by how responsive it is, which was extra surprising considering at the time it didn’t feel that way!
You can tell that generations of greybeards at infinite loop have been retiring. They got the hardware culture right only to see the nextstep legacy in software go to waste.
I now get stuck in the camera app half the time I try to use it, and other nonsense.
One of my Macs has developed the most insane habit of losing audio output capability, and then tries to route it to another one - a feature I didn’t even know existed.
Makes no sense to see TV as a medium for communication.
Instead they are hell bent on criticizing and tearing down anyone that does, especially when their finance bros are invested in the legacy competition.
The thing people fail to appreciate about media empires is there is no ad/not-ad distinction: it is all an ad, either for other products or for more of the same media.
And it will be true because the only way to defeat these people is actually being an asshole.
One of the major cultural problems in open source software is it got dominated by people doing it purely for self promotion. Then it becomes an interview question, then all the incentives are warped on the promise of “get PRs merged, get paid big money”.
But yes, you are right.
