    http://news.mit.edu/2017/using-chip-memory-more-efficiently-cache-hierarchies-0707
    The researchers tested their system on a simulation of a chip with 36 cores, or processing units. They found that, compared to its best-performing predecessors, the system increased processing speed by 20 to 30 percent while reducing energy consumption by 30 to 85 percent.

    “What you would like is to take these distributed physical memory resources and build application-specific hierarchies that maximize the performance for your particular application,” says Daniel Sanchez, an assistant professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS), whose group developed the new system.

    “And that depends on many things in the application. What’s the size of the data it accesses? Does it have hierarchical reuse, so that it would benefit from a hierarchy of progressively larger memories? Or is it scanning through a data structure, so we’d be better off having a single but very large level? How often does it access data? How much would its performance suffer if we just let data drop to main memory? There are all these different tradeoffs.”

    give me the future now please

    I think what I love about Space Wolves, in 8th edition, is that they are one of the few armies with good synergy

    My three leaders each provide some kind of buff- the Wolf Priest lets anyone near him reroll missed attacks (and he can heal the Cavalry and Wulfen!), the Battle Leader lets anyone near him reroll wound rolls of 1, and the Iron Priest repairs the dreadnoughts. The Wulfen units give the Blood Claws, Thunderwolf Cavalry, the Priests and Battle Leader either the ability to reroll failed charge rolls, or get an extra attack in close combat. The only guys who are just kind of hanging out are the Fenrisian Wolves and Cyberwolves, but then again, they are super fast and now can score objectives, so they kind of exist just to do that.

    I watched the SGDQ speedrun of breath of the wild. It was outstanding but I'm done dealing with angry white straight men posting distilled liquid hate at anyone who isn't one of them.

    Yes guy with a my little pony avatar, it was worth it to post "trap" in the chat, as a slur against the speedrunner, then get banned from the chat for an hour. You really have your life in order.

    And the worst is the paper thin excuses for the hate. She allegedly went against an informal agreement in the speedrunning forums to not submit breath of the wild runs this year therefore it's ok to to scream hate speech at the top of my lungs and post swastikas over and over in twitch chat.

    I had a lord and a daemon prince which allow rerolls of 1 for hits. No wounds but I split them in my army. The prince in the front the lord with the arty in the back. It got me a few wounds.

    I totally forgot my Death to the False Emperor! rule on my charges. Shit that might of blown up a plane.

    knowing nothing but choosing to respond

    I am guessing because the increases were by seconds based on things that could basically be attributed to luck. they want to give it some time for people to either play something else or actually break it in a way not yet seen rather than constantly seeing slightly-more-perfect-by-a-hair submissions

    pure guess, not part of the community but I did watch a few runs of that game after I beat it and it's actually why I beat it when I did, to avoid spoilers.

    Heh the writing in Tyranny can be very entertaining. In this new area I'm like "I'm presently between loyalties" which cracks me up. Also on my character: "you seem like someone who does the right things for the wrong reasons".

    It's really fun to be terrible. The 'artifact hunt' format of the path I chose through the game is...dumb...but fortunately it seems to just be a pretense to go to these areas and do cooler shit that I feel like doing, and also just wholesale slaughter anyone who stands in my way.

    I think it's more that traditionally they don't run games that are like less than a year old since the runs change so fast while people are discovering techniques?

    But lol GDQ accepted it why be mad at the runner.

    I am not a speedrunner but I suspect there actually wasn't one. But according to the howling shitbags on twitch and youtube, Games Done Quick alternates what games are run at events to make sure the same games aren't done at consecutive events. So doing it now means it's not eligible for GDQ event for a year I guess? And some of the community thought the current runs were unimpressive and needed more time to polish. I guess to make it worth competing for the GDQ spot and to make it more fun to watch. So there was an alleged informal agreement to not submit entries.

    The whole thing does not pass the smell test at any level. It's manufactured drama as a pretext for alt right shit mongering.

    I thought they didn't want botw speed runs because the game hasn't been out very long and they were gonna do it later this year.

    Like unless they recovered the wreckage, which I can't imagine, it'd need to be a feed. That said if you strapped a gopro to a 100 icbm's and crashed them I bet at least one would yield a salvageable sd card just from pure luck.

    You'd think at a games speedrunning thing the audience wouldn't give a shit what a speed runner looks like and maybe instead care about how fast they break the game.
