Deleting the ability for CPU-GPU to multiply FP16-int8, etc... matrix, while still being good at raster will be hard to do, not sure what it would mean, every PC ever sold can do it no ? https://calsci.com/Benchmarks.html Old benchmark of training neural network on 8086 to Pentium 2 cpus

First one was the forest and nature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rTX1wtw606s this one the city seem to have stepped it up. I would not expect them to match Rockstars or anything (or be incredible performance for what they render like the Call of Duty teams), but for a small studio for a...

Graphic look not like a big jump but I suspect it will have twice of it (the city footage for example seem a big jump in complexity) and the first one did hold up over time really well anyway, with hardware evolution catching up to be able to run it over time. And there something about looking...

But how can a brightness level that is ok to use in a sunny room-exterior can be ok in low-light inside condition, one or the other would be too bright or not bright enough it is impossible for it to not be the case, are you sure you do not have the Automatically adjust brightness set to on that...

I would imagine patch to change the framerate on 30 or 60 fps mode on free floating performance one when they exist maybe it will be automatic, but for the 30-60 will have it hardcoded. https://www.theverge.com/2024/4/16/24131799/sony-ps5-pro-enhanced-requirements-ultra-boost-mode Developers...

They already do quiet revision like that for newer PS5 revision over time, they have shipped smaller TSMC 6 SoC in lighter console for a while I think: https://press-start.com.au/news/playstation/2022/08/29/new-ps5-model-cfi-1202b-cfi-1202a/ Launch: Disc: 4.5kg / Digital: 3.9kg 2021 Revision...

I am not much of a big laptop user, but wouldn't a level of brightness that work well outside be too bright inside, my Laptop I am using to type this right now, is almost to its minimum of brightness, not being use with strong light around. Using 50% probably being an easy to everyone set and...

But the question was about that point that was made: . a company claims they can't provide raises, that union(izing) demand are exorbitant, that they HAVE to raise prices, lower support, outsource, do some other worker or customer unfriendly thing.... but it was found out that money they could...

There a compete trying to hide stuff to competition, wanting to flash they are the best, I imagine often they exaggerate by cherry-picking to look more advanced than it is (or even people in suit)....

Stock buy back, money goes out and to the same people, no ? How any of it would be different if they had spent the same money going to the same people has a dividend instead of a buyback ?

I doubt that the case in realistic days of work load (heavy load would be quite niche, who run all day all core task on battery ?), obviously if you find way to use the same amount of watts of 2 computers with similar battery you end up with similar battery life , Apple will shine in how much...

That amount of difference people make from a company making a stop buyback vs a divident was always quite strange. Comcast give 4-5B a year in dividends as well... why the other look specially at buy backs here ? Outside some option of timing your gain for the stockholder that can have tax...

Its compilation in general, chromium, linux kernel, etc... are just common source code to do for them like the BMW scene in Blender. It is not something many people do, but of the people interested in a 16 core CPU, that software rendering/compression and other task that scale well yes. Turn...

But is there many that use 16 that would not use 24, i.e. if more than 12 has any use... if we see a reason to go beyond 12, the same reason would apply for 24. People interested in the 16 core are doing stuff that scale went going from 12 to 16 (or they would have bought the 12 core): And...

More than 8 threads are common now (my cheap Acer laptop has 12 core-16 thread), 12 will tend to be the frequent minimum, consoles have 16 threads since 2020 And if your code can take advantage of 10 threads but not 18, it was probably quite the challenge to reach 10 already and it stopping to...
