Something to look forward to: A revolutionary new SSD form factor could soon redefine high-density storage in data centers by narrowing the capacity gap between mechanical hard drives and solid-state drives. Known as E2, this QLC flash-based drive is reportedly capable of storing up to 1 petabyte (1 million gigabytes) of data while delivering performance comparable to that of a high-end SSD.

← index You've most likely heard about gradient noise through the name Perlin noise, which refers to one particular implementation with various CPU optimizations. Because it's an incredible tool for creative work, it's used virtually everywhere: visual effects, video games, procedural mathematical art, etc. While getting it right can sometimes be subtle, a "broken" implementation can still look good or interesting. After all, "it looks fine, and I'm an artist". In order to gain a deeper and mo

Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of reconstructing dynamic 3D scenes with complex motions. Some recent works define 3D Gaussian primitives in the canonical space and use deformation fields to map canonical primitives to observation spaces, achieving real-time dynamic view synthesis. However, these methods often struggle to handle scenes with complex motions due to the difficulty of optimizing deformation fields. To overcome this problem, we propose FreeTimeGS, a novel 4D representati

Six months ago I bought a Leica Q3 43. Costing me £6,000 (around $8,000), this compact camera has gone with me across Europe, photographing everything from street and travel scenes to speeding cars on frozen lakes and major editorial features. I've really gotten to know the camera, and I love having something that's so high quality but still so easy to carry around. It offers a different, no-nonsense form of shooting that my other cameras don't, and sure, the Leica badge still gives me somethin

Once, in another life, I was a tech founder. It was the late nineties, when the Web was young, and everyone was trying to cash in on the dot-com boom.

Time to Rethink PostgreSQL Storage Burak Yucesoy Principal Software Engineer Cloud storage was built around the limits of old hardware. Spinning hard drives (HDDs) were slow and fragile. So, early on cloud providers moved storage off of servers. They used network-attached disks to boost durability and scalability. But hardware has evolved. Today, you can get 2.5 million IOPS from a $600 NVMe SSD [1]. By contrast, pushing 2.5 million IOPS through Aurora would cost you $1.3M per month. With NVMe

On December 17, 1917, the U.S. Navy submarine USS F-1, crashed off the coast of San Diego. Now, more than a century later, researchers at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI) have collected the first high-definition visuals of the wreckage. During a series of seven dives conducted earlier this year, researchers employed the crewed underwater vehicle Alvin and autonomous underwater vehicle Sentry, both based on the WHOI research ship Atlantis, to snap close-ups of the sunken submarine.

Johnson, writer and director of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, was once set to write and direct a full new trilogy of films. But when The Last Jedi was met with such a polarizing response, those projects were moved to the background. Johnson went on to make Knives Out, a huge, original hit film, and has

Choose wisely! The correct answer, the explanation, and an intriguing story await. Correct Answer: Neither drive is the master There is no need for a master or slave distinction with SATA drives because they each connect to the motherboard with their own SATA cable. Two IDE/PATA drives, on the other hand, could share the same data cable, but only one could use it at a time and thus each required a distinct name. In fact, by the time ATA-2 was approved in 1996, the spec referred to the drives a
