Of course it’s not where I draw the line. Don’t be obtuse.

When asked who deserves sympathy, I gave an answer— and a far more deserving one than this dope.

The benefits, basically, are that it can provide an architecture that is designed for modern computing needs that can scale well into the future. That means high performance with low power consumption and heat.

The x86/64 model has been up against a wall for a while now, pumping out red-hot power hogs that don’t suit modern needs and don’t have much of a path forward wrt development compared to ARM.

I guess I kind of forgot about that

That’s interesting. I’ll check it out.

The famous pipe. How people reproached me for it! And yet, could you stuff my pipe? No, it's just a representation, is it not? So if I had written on my picture "This is a pipe", I'd have been lying!

gregorum , to Not The Onion in Queen thought Meghan’s wedding dress was ‘too white’ as Sussexes mark 6th anniversary
@gregorum@lemm.ee avatar
  1. I’m not seeing that this is the case here. Wearing white wedding dresses is traditionally only for “virgins”. The Queen was the head of the Church of England. It might even be unusual for a 90-year-old head of the church, not to object to something like this.
  2. I think this is a stretch, and assuming rather a lot about someone you don’t know
  3. The queen did object to Camilla wearing a white dress when she married Charles

I found this very interesting:

Persuading the BBC not to describe sperm whale clicks as “language” in their Blue Planet II series was the highlight of my science communication career. Why? 

A lot of complex communication is going on in cetaceans, much of which we still don’t understand. However, I am convinced that we should drop the stifling and anthropocentric focus on language. It crowds out other perspectives on what is going on – for example, the relationship between rhythm-based communication and music might be a better way to understand the bonding function of coda synchrony in sperm whales.

We should be wary of ranking species on a single dimension relative to humans, as if all evolution is a path to something like us (much like early anthropologists ranked societies by their progress toward western “perfection”). Instead, let’s take ourselves off the top of the ladder and see other animals as distinct branches of an evolutionary tree.

I find great logic in the argument of understanding animal communications in relation to the animals themselves rather than their relation to us.

Ugh, title gore. Shame on the editor for letting that alliterative train wreck go to press.
