How The New York Times is (still) getting gamed by the right

theverge.com Elizabeth Lopatto 2025-08-07 02:30:00

Lately, it has been difficult to ignore a tendency at The New York Times to make astonishingly bad news judgments. The paper’s obsession with a view from nowhere is long-standing, but as Republicans increasingly circulate insane conspiracy theories and racist nonsense, the cult of centrism has taken a self-destructive turn. The most recent — and perhaps most egregious — way this has surfaced is a story about New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s application to Columbia University in 2009,

CDNA 4 is AMD’s latest compute oriented GPU architecture, and represents a modest update over CDNA 3. CDNA 4’s focus is primarily on boosting AMD’s matrix multiplication performance with lower precision data types. Those operations are important for machine learning workloads, which can often maintain acceptable accuracy with very low precision types. At the same time, CDNA 4 seeks to maintain AMD’s lead in more widely applicable vector operations. To do so, CDNA 4 largely uses the same system
