The AMD chips in the PS5 and new XBox reach 448GB/s and 326GB/s bandwith respectively with their unified memory.


Not entirely true. Xbox Series X has two different memory bandwidths. The first 10GB has 560GB/s and the last 6GB has only 336GB/s.


Yeah it's an interesting setup. I believe the 560 is prioritized for graphics processing and 336 for more general tasks.


Can you elaborate on why you dislike it for your personal projects?


I don't like React or anything having to do with it, and Next.js is too bloated for my liking on top of that. I use Surplus and not much else, which tends to handle state, updates, re-renders, user interaction, and a bunch of other things much nicer and as such results in cleaner code. It also tops the performance benchmarks consistently.

Plus I don't want SSR most of the time in my apps. If I had a landing page, I might consider Next.js. But at the same time, I might just do static HTML in such a case.


Got any resources for category theory? It sounds interesting.


SEP is generally a good starting point for most philosophy topics.

This guy's whole channel is amazing.

Funny coincidence just happened. I was procrastinating reading this article and my partner noticed.

She asked me what I was doing and I told her I was procrastinating. She asked me, "If I'd like to do something else then?" Hinting at some assignment. Naturally, like the article mentions, I felt the urge to work on the problem I was procrastinating on.

So the solution we stumbled on, isn't to have your partner try to hold you accountable, but for them to assign you different tasks if they notice you procrastinating.


Hmm, I’ve noticed that if I’m procrastinating and can’t get started at work, as soon as home time approaches the block will resolve itself and I’ll be able to start (almost instantly resenting the fact that I’m required to stop.) This sounds like a similar thing (deadlock in scheduler resolved by addition of new task, in this case going home.)


Have any resource recommendations? I have a future project lined up for audio visualization on a custom LED array.


Do you have any recommendation on a book about proofs? Every time I delve into algorithms most CS books seem to make large jumps in logic when demonstrating proofs.


The best book about proof I've read is "How to prove it" by Daniel J. Velleman. A lot of set theory. But to understand it, you must do the exercises in the book. And for the solution, checkout this blog: https://www.inchmeal.io/htpi/index.html


Thanks for the recommendation and solutions. It's the second one in this thread. I'll definitely be purchasing it.


While they may have the upper hand when it comes to selecting companions, they definitely don't have more power over men. One simply has to look at laws in cultures all over the world that suppress their rights. In societies where they don't have the right to choose their mates male competition still exists. In addition, what alternative are you even suggesting? That women choose defy their own well-being and mate with all men?


There's a whole body of thought around this under the concept of no-self in Buddhism. If the concept of self is an illusion, then trying to build an identity around it is futile.


My company didn't have a large presence on there, but the app Blind seems to fit the bill.


> Blind seems to fit the bill

Blind is based in South Korea. (Disclosure: one of my parents is ethnically South Korean, and I have very high regard for South Korea and its citizens.)

Given the stakes involved with workplace organizing and the opacity (from a legal perspective) of a South Korea-based business, Blind may not be the right platform.

At the very least, some US workers may be reluctant to open up on a platform not subject to US labor law.


Thanks for the non walled link!
