Haha, yeah. Once XFCE is fully wayland driven, I will probably be back on xfce.

From the link in the post to which you replied:

> It is not yet clear which Xfce release will target a complete Xfce Wayland transition (or if such a transition will happen at all).


Ok, IF xfce is fully transitioned to wayland...

Yeah, they had been working on CUDA for a very long time before AI turned out to be interesting again.

They were overused, but some actually make sense, such as the IOException and SQLException

The problem with them all always comes when the ever-steady march of abstractions, features, and edge cases results in one routine throwing the same two error classes but in different places, and how you handle them is different despite being the same wrapper. Add a thousand developers and several years of churn, and poof you get extremely complex bugs that result from errors seeming to come from one place, but actually coming from another.

Having been on the receiving end of debugging that a few times, I no longer mind the in-band error handling, although admittedly I'm inexperienced enough to be confident its better. Just for the random code I've had to read where I just need to know exactly how something I didn't write and will never read again works, and whether the error is handled and how, i love reading in-band error handling, even if I too dislike the way an error laden routine must be written. Over time I've come to appreciate elegance "in the large" as opposed to the code I see in any individual function.


the way they are rigging the valuation, there wont be much growth left for the "market", so the ipo isn't really that interesting priced like this.

At best, this tells you v4.1 flash is profitable, but can they really get $38 per gpu hour? Sounds like a lot.


From their own inference framework docs: "A single cluster currently serves 155 trillion tokens per day, with overall revenue of US$38 per GPU-hour (at valley pricing)."

https://github.com/deepseek-ai/DeepInfer/blob/main/doc/infer...

So this implies they actually hit about double that during peak pricing.


If they keep it running at near constant usage, you'd only need 80-120 million tokens an hour to hit 38$ of revenue (at off peak pricing, half as much for peak pricing).


> As for "commercializing": Docker was famously bad at commercializing anything, we open sourced so much (maybe too much) and still people complained that we were not open enough.

yes, and no. Probably both. Docker would not become such a default standard if it wasnt for all the open sourcing.


As a backend developer, I am hopelessly grateful for docker and containerization in general. The old days with stateful application servers were AWFUL.


the main thing with jpeg is adding 10bit would be a breaking change anyway, and storage space on phones gets you 30-40% more photos on the same storage if you change formats.


One of these people use their money to spread hate and promote themselves, the other does not.


The problem here is that one side of the political debate now uses "hate" as a synonym for "political opinions I disagree with". The political rhetoric has gotten so out of control that it's making it difficult to have a civilized discussion about anything, even topics that aren't inherently political (like a freaking flying car that does 0-60 in 0.8s!).


Maybe one side of the political debate shouldn't do hateful things like block all refugees except white ones


Not really. It would be very simple for one of these parties to just not use symbols of old hate, or avoid spending hundreds of millions of dollars to remove crucial aid for millions of people. These are active choices. Glossing over these choices is not helpful to anyone.


1. How long does size, encode time and resize take compared to good old jpeg?

2. Is it possible to encode AVIF with hardware acceleration?


JPEG is fast as fuck, due to it being designed for decades old hardware.

When it comes to hardware encoders, the nicest thing you can say about them is they're fast. Software tends to do way better at quality. Hardware AV1 encoders will be tuned for video rather than stills.


If going away from jpeg will 20x our hosting costs, it will be difficult to ever switch from jpeg.
