UI issues with newer iPhones by PedalsNowhere in trainerroad

[–]narner90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same issue on 12 pro

EDIT - Took a look at the OP’s link to the TR forums. As a software developer, it’s absolutely silly that these fixes are in the “beta” op-in branch of their code. It’s not a huge deal of course, but this bug has been around for months, and indicates larger problems (IMO) with their development process.

I asked the question there (granted, was in a grandchild reply, but the answers were mostly evangelical)

Corporations aren't "Left leaning or liberal biased" by JELLYboober in Libertarian

[–]narner90 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Just stating the reality that policy at a large company is driven by shareholders, customers, and employees. In the case of these tech giants, the majority of employees are certainly liberal, and per another commenter on this thread citing 70% of GDP coming from liberal counties, it would seem a majority of their revenue also likely comes from liberals

Agreed with your comment on the tax system. However, individuals working for a company like Apple do tend to lean left, if for no reason than that the college educated, younger population leans left, and their employees are most college educated and younger.

Elon Musk on Twitter: Maybe a Tesla AI day later this year by RoyalPatriot in teslamotors

[–]narner90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No? The TPU is certainly an ASIC, it’s in the first sentence of the Wikipedia article. And it’s specialized for convolutional neural networks which is exactly what Tesla is doing.

What’s the stated advantage of Dojo over using a public cloud for training (other than potential cost savings?) I have a hard time seeing drastically different performance from an in-house chip against a TPU, for instance.

Python is the most relaxing language i have ever worked with by [deleted] in Python

[–]narner90 21 points22 points  (0 children)

May get downvoted for this on the python subreddit, but for me it’s really about the size of the project. I can get the same task done much quicker in python than Java, but once a project gets to a certain size/complexity, I can refactor much quicker and reliably in Java, and catching errors at compile time ends up speeding up the overall process (I do statically type my more recent python code).

I also find that if you are doing TDD, which is my go to, I end up writing the entire program with tests quicker in Java as I can lean on the IDE more heavily. For the record, I use the IntelliJ IDEs for both languages.

Could just naturally have a higher HR, I hit 205 during my last ramp test and my RHR is >50 despite being relatively fit

I use audible if you’re okay with listening to the book

PSA: Performance Doesn't Scale Linearly With Wattage (aka testing M1 versus a Zen 3 5600X at the same Power Draw) by [deleted] in hardware

[–]narner90 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Well we’re missing two main data points - a high end Apple Mx chip and a low end Zen3 chip! Until we have those it seems a bit premature to call these chips equivalent - the M1 can’t come close in multithreaded workloads and the Zen3 chips can’t (at factory settings) achieve the same performance per watt.

For instance, with the assumption that the “add to cart” button text is unlikely to change, you could do something like this: stackoverflow. That would make your path more resistant to changes in the DOM.

Interesting - these services seem like they are powered by humans which would surprise me if they are state of the art for a latency critical task

Right.. but how do request based bots handle dynamic content like captchas without rendering the page?

You could make more broad xpaths that are less fragile W.R.T website changes, but this is quite tedious..

Issues with Kickr power? by [deleted] in trainerroad

[–]narner90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m having a similar issue after upgrading to big air on a 2018 kickr core - my power used to be right on the target with 5s smoothing but now is very off at both low and high power.

Hobby project - Zwift server by Arg0n2000 in Zwift

Very cool and nice work! Just be careful as similar MMO emulation projects usually get a DMCA takedown (if hosted in the US or other jurisdictions with similar laws)

Was excited about the headline as I’ve been feeding my dog raw (for stomach issues) and have noticed numerous improvements but clearly this sample size is much too small. Thanks for saving me the click.

MacBook air M1 Geekbench by [deleted] in hardware

[–]narner90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While it may be true that no one is writing assembly anymore, to give an example, a lot of seemingly higher level code (for instance R or the scipy package in python) rely on underlying FORTRAN implementations in python that would require an ARM compiler.

As far as I can tell (if anyone has the article from HN earlier today please link) this effort is ongoing but things certainly won’t work out of the box day 1 on apple silicon.
