Memory-Level Parallelism: Apple M2 vs. Apple M4

news.ycombinator.com View All Posts Daniel Lemire 2025-08-02 15:24:28

The Apple M2, introduced in 2022, and the Apple M4, launched in 2024, are both ARM-based system-on-chip (SoC) designs featuring unified memory architecture. That is, they use the same memory for both graphics (GPU) and main computations (CPU). The M2 processor relies on LPDDR5 memory whereas the M4 relies on LPDDR5X which should provide slightly more bandwidth. The exact bandwidth you get from an Apple system depends on your configuration.

The ‘Click-to-Cancel’ Rule Was Killed, but Consumer Advocates Could Revive It

United States residents almost escaped subscription cancellation hell, but the Federal Trade Commission's “Click to Cancel” rule was unanimously struck down by the US Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit on Tuesday—just days before it was set to go into effect. What would have happened if this updated FTC rule had gone into effect on July 14 as planned? “The stated goal was that they wanted to make it as easy for you to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up,” says John Breyault, vice pre

Why the US and Europe could lose the race for fusion energy

technologyreview.com Daniel F. Brunner 2025-08-07 00:00:00

The US and Europe were the dominant public funders of fusion energy research and are home to many of the world’s pioneering private fusion efforts. The West has consequently developed many of the basic technologies that will make fusion power work. But in the past five years China’s support of fusion energy has surged, threatening to allow the country to dominate the industry. The industrial base available to support China’s nascent fusion energy industry could enable it to climb the learning c

4 Linux distros that can't be upgraded on autopilot - and why they're still worth trying

Jack Wallen / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET If you use a Linux distribution based on Debian or Ubuntu, the upgrade path is almost always painless. I've had maybe one Ubuntu upgrade in over a decade that had problems, and even that was a fairly straightforward fix. But not all Linux distributions are created equal, and some are more challenging than others. Some distributions even make the upgrade process more difficult, and a few give users fair warning about why it's important to stay informed

Critics are increasingly branding Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) as a failure, including lawmakers fiercely debating how much funding to allot next year to the controversial agency. On Tuesday, Republicans and Democrats sparred over DOGE's future at a DOGE subcommittee hearing, according to NextGov, a news site for federal IT workers. On one side, Republicans sought to "lock in" and codify the "DOGE process" for supposedly reducing waste and fraud in government, and on t

Factories have used fossil fuels to process iron ore for three centuries, and the climate has paid a heavy price: According to the International Energy Agency, the steel industry today accounts for 8% of carbon dioxide emissions. But it turns out there is a less carbon-intensive alternative: using hydrogen. Unlike coal or natural gas, which release carbon dioxide as a by-product, this process releases water.
