  • I mean, leaving aside their surveillance tasks, it's still their job to ensure national security. It's in their best interest to keep at least themselves and their nation safe, and considering how prevalent Linux is on servers, they likely saw a net benefit this way. They even open sourced their reverse engineering toolkit Ghidra in a similar vein

  • If I were to guess, it would be the additional pins. USB-C PD is capable of decent power transfer while also having enough data transfer capability simultaneously. USB-C docks are a good example, seeing that you can hook up a display, charger, other USB devices, ethernet, etc and have it all go through a single cable and (compact, convenient) connector. The reversibility is an added bonus

  • AFAIK: Development at AMD funded the dev to make it support AMD GPUs (instead of the then-supported Intel GPUs), Dev keeps a clause saying any and all work will remain open even if contract is cancelled, work is then halted by AMD and dev releases his updates on his repo, Legal then says later that the clause was not legally binding and can't be enforced or such, making dev rollback to earlier Intel version

  • But that's more "Don't underestimate my power" than "You underestimate my power" tho

    For added pedanticity, it translates near-literally to "Don't think less of my power"

  • TIL if you want to make a powdered drink like hot chocolate or cup-a-soup, add a tiny amount of water to the powder and make a paste before adding the hot water to avoid clumping.

  • I remember this old website that the YouTube team had made which visualised the amount of video time getting uploaded per day on YouTube over the years of its existence, and it was on the order of several years per day or something. Gotta find that site again

  • They stand for Floating Point 16-bit, 8-bit and 4 bit respectively. Normal floating point numbers are generally 32 or 64 bits in size, so if you're willing to sacrifice some range, you can save a lot of space used by the model. Oh, and it's about the model rather than the GPU
