Honest thoughts on Xbox Project Helix?

Microsoft and Sony have tapped AMD to deliver their next-gen hardware. The CPU technology is based on the latest Zen 6 architecture, while the graphics side of the equation taps into the upcoming RDNA 5. In both areas, Microsoft is said to have more hardware, along with a wider memory interface - 192-bit vs Sony's 160-bit bus.

There are also differences in processors. Project Helix is credited with three high-performance Zen 6 cores and eight energy-efficient Zen 6c cores. PS6, according to rumors, will mainly use Zen 6c cores and additional low-power blocks.

Differences are also noticeable in graphics. Xbox may receive up to 68 RDNA 5 compute units, while PS6 will receive about 54.

Don't you ever find it strange that when you hover over a YouTube video's thumbnail, it now plays on its own, sounds blaring, instantaneously -- and yet when you click into the video itself, it took 1 whole minute until it finally starts playing?

I think this is because loading the video launches an entire web application whereas the preview you get is just a smooth video stream. Yes, this site and literally ever other corporate internet site could work 10x better.

The answer is for people to make what they want and share it. We have the ability now. As more vibe-coded tools emerge without the pure enshittification UI and performance the big boys will either fail or be forced to conform to their competition.

The most important thing is to use better tools when someone else makes them. The main issue with competing with lousy big services is that the users are incredibly lazy and brand-addicted. To remedy this you need a superior experience - which is easy, but also a KILLER FEATURE.

It's sort of like old school video game consoles. Certain games are the "killer app" that become unit sellers. People buy the system for that game. Your app/web service needs to have that killer app feature that compels people to use it. This should be your main consideration when launching a new tool.

A better internet is right around the corner if you want it to be.

I spent all day helping the AI figure out the semantics of BRX instruction (branch to relative address) on Nvidia assembly, which allowed me to write a debug macro I can use to log values per thread anywhere within my kernel.
Originally I was trying to figure out how to use CALL instructions but I couldn't make it work.

you clearly don't know how a transformer based llm works if you expect this to happen. Even basics concepts behind their inner working, like derivaties and gradients, might not be clear to you, so the learning algos seem like magic to you.

I mean, the behavior of LLMs is determined by their low level implementation, but we don't have any theory that predicts how well they will work.
If I told you that 1 year from now we will have GPT 6 and it will have the same architecture as GPT 5.4, but 40% more parameters, you wouldn't be able to predict how well it can debug x86 assembly code, you would only know that it will probably vaguely be better.
If 20 years ago I showed you transformers, you wouldn't have been able to predict that LLMs will work as well as they currently do.
Probably if you weren't a human, and I told you that human brains are made from neurons, you wouldn't have been able to predict human behavior. We know that humans are intelligent by observing the high level behavior of people around us and ourselves, not because we deduce that from the architecture of the brain.
The same way I look at the high level trends in LLMs and I see that they are becoming better at programming and easier to use. I also see that many of the techniques people used even just a year ago are no longer useful, and some are even detrimental like really long AGENTS.md files.
What is even claim here? That something trained with gradient descent cannot be good at programming? Is that some a priori claim? Or do we have empirical evidence for that? This is the first time we have such big LLMs, there is no empirical precedent.

It might even be, that human programmers will be better for a while at some programming tasks, but I was specifically talking about AI assisted programming and there the gap between professionals and hobbyists is getting smaller and smaller. Maybe there will be a place for researchers implementing highly mathematical algorithms that are provably correct for a while, but they they probably won't even be using AI.

They're also 15% more expensive. So they're more expensive, gives a ton more energy density, but with fewer recharge cycles.

I can see why they're mostly in phones but not as much in EVs except high end models. Phone batteries can be cheaply replaced every 3-4 years, but for the average car buyer, it's probably something they can't afford, except richfags, so hence only high end premium models.

POP OS and Cosmic just works better because it's specifically made for their own PC's and Laptop hardware first. The problem with gnome is they have to support hundreds of other computer hardware, some even 10 years old, so it comes with a lot of slop and baggage. Pop OS and Cosmic is starting brand new and fresh, so they don't have to carry the mistakes gnome made early on just to keep people on 10yr old computers happy.

It's all about IP reputation. Google has to have the best intel on IPs imaginable. Not too hard to imagine, that irregular behavior (caused by invidious instances used by multiple people) will flag the IP as suspicious and ban it temporarily or permanently. This also applies to IP ranges. Running it yourself at the very least allows you to use it normally (granted, you don't share your IP with non-normalfags) and for instance owners to remove some of the bandwidth.

they are using proxies, but proxies get blocked constantly. My residential IP gets blocked watching youtube after ~10 videos, then I have to change IP, but without luck I end up with another blocked ip.

I also found out that google doesn't keep track of which ipv6 corresponds to which ipv4, so you can just switch to ipv6/ipv4 when the other one get blocked, but that only extends the issue.

Some people also tried using their google cookie, but it turns out google will block your cookie if it detects you're using a third-party client (or yt-dlp)

these are well documented on yt-dlp issue tracker.
