And some apps are really inefficient. New Codex app drains my battery. If you are using Codex I recommend minimizing it, since it’s the UI that uses most power.

I’ve used it for live translation with great success. It tends to start ignoring the original instructions after 20 min, so you have to start a new conversation if you don’t want it to meddle in the conversation instead of just transferring.

Are you bothered by anything similar on the MacBook?

A while later I had an idea to mount an iPad to my fridge so that I could check the weather, add things to my shopping list, play music, etc. I bought the rather expensive iPad with Nano Texture screen and it has been amazing to use. There is a big window opposite the fridge, and without the nano texture the glare from behind makes it hard to read what’s on the screen.

Not sure I would enjoy nano texture on my MacBook. For outdoor use I found that Vivid is great to turn up the brightness using the extended range of HDR that Apple doesn’t otherwise allow me to use.

You can’t really optimise your code for faster sequential reads than the IO is capable of, so the only thing really worth focusing on is how to optimise everything that isn’t already sequential.

Bus drivers in Norway are binary people. They either press the accelerator or they press the brake. Most drivers call it leg day, because you spend the entire day pushing on these peddles as hard as you can.

Our existing buses have terrible acceleration, which helps a lot with the comfort of the bus ride. But for some unknown reason someone decided that the bendy busses should have the only wheels with power, in the rear of the bus, after the bend. So any slight hill that is slippery from a bit of snow or frost, now becomes a a comedic video of buses trying to drive up before they flop in the middle of the bend and slide back down again.

But if your workload belongs on 8 H100 GPUs then there isn't much point in trying to run it on a macbook. You'd be better served by renting them by the hour, or if you have a quarter million dollars you can always just purchase them outright.

The H100 is just an example, this is true for any workload that doesn't fit on a laptop.

Mind you, Geekerwan managed to push the A19 Pro to 4019 in Geekbench 6 by using active cooling. https://youtu.be/Y9SwluJ9qPI

Not sure what a prime core is.

For comparison the M4 Pro can go as high as 10 performance cores and 4 efficiency cores.

English subtitles are recommended, unless you are better at Chinese than I am.

So if OpenAI is hosting their services within the borders of the UK, then they would also be beholden to UK law. Makes it easier for the financial sector, government and healthcare to use their AI models than if they would have to send their data to a datacenter in the US.

It would just keep adding what it called "heuristics", which were just if statements that tested for a specific condition that arose during the bug. I could write 10 tests for a specific type of bug, and it would happily fix all of them. When I add another one test with the same kind of bug it obviously fails, because the fix that Codex came up with was a bunch of if statements that matched the first 10 tests.
