@Cognessence@social.linux.pizzaRunning late for my gate, but obviously couldn’t resist the predictable tradition of playing Budapest airport’s piano and infecting Mastodon timelines with it. And the playing itself is predictable, being the same harmonies I played the first time on a random piano video years ago. :D
It’s short for obvious reasons. ✈️😬

We DEFINITELY live in the bumbest of all timelines.
@vform@openbiblio.socialHm, bei Fedilab wird schon seit ziemlich langer Zeit nicht mehr die ganze Timeline gezogen. Irgendwie fehlt gerne der Morgen. Komisch.
Diverse male meine ich auch Posts gesehen zu gaben, nun seien unterbrochene Timelines aber gefixt. Bei mir wohl nicht. Naja, macht auch nichts.

@fennek@cyberplace.socialGod, I hate that 2 timelines bs in #Silo. If you gonna diverge from the books at that point anyway, why keep _this_?

@waidler@bayerwald.socialAm Rande des Berliner CSD fuhr ein mutmaßlich islamistischer Attentäter mit einem Auto in eine Menschengruppe. Eine Frau starb, knapp 30 Menschen wurden verletzt.
In sozialen Netzwerken erklärten Rechtsextreme daraufhin, sie könnten mit dem Täter „mitgehen".
Der gemeinsame Nenner von Islamismus und Rechtsextremismus ist der Hass auf queere Menschen. Wer sich jetzt als deren Schutzmacht aufspielt, sollte zuerst die eigenen Timelines lesen.

Abstract: Modern AI accelerators increasingly combine heterogeneous compute units, hierarchical memories, local buffers, and specialized data movement paths. This diversity makes fixed accelerator simulators difficult to extend beyond their original execution model. We present SCALE-Sim EVA, an extensible, visualizable, and adaptable simulation framework for IR-aware accelerator modeling. EVA represents workloads as tensor-based commands, tracks runtime tensor placement and readiness, and executes commands on composable hardware components with user-defined functional units and memory behavior. Instead of replaying address-level cycle traces, EVA computes cycle timing from tensor readiness, hardware-unit availability, and modeled operation or transfer latency. Its command decomposition mechanism bridges compiler-level IR granularity and hardware-level execution granularity, allowing global tensor operations to be lowered and scheduled locally across a hardware hierarchy. EVA also emits open command and storage traces for visual analysis of execution timelines, memory occupancy, and resource contention.

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.ioIt’s 2026 and there’s only two types of apps left:
Ones with chronological timelines and ones with reverse chronological timelines.
@luana@wetdry.worldHmmmm, so there are like at least three separate timelines here, and the skeleton guy keeps teleporting between them or something?
Might have to do with thr circular universe thing Lila talked about
@luana@wetdry.worldI only figured this out today bc I'm playing A Plague Tale and was curious about what was happening during those years irl and did some quick Wikipedia searches
I'm glad teachers didn't make us remember "random" years, it wouldn't actually help, but it's crazy how little we relate different subjects in History with each other when teaching
I think one of my History teachers, who gave me classes in High School and some Middle School years, understood this was a problem bc in his first class every year he always drew a timeline of world events
I always loved this and wished he did it more often
My memory might not be doing great either, bc I generally remember learning about things but don't really remember details. E.g. I remember learning about the 100 years war and that it was a 116-year-long war in Europe but I remembered nothing else about it
But while this part might be my memorys fault, the general lack of intuition about simultaneity and order of events is not and was always a problem for me. I remember being confused about this and impressed at historical events timelines way back in school. One of our books had a timeline like that too (tho it was cluttered, which is understandable but made it harder to read) which I often spent a while looking at
@chris@mstdn.chrisalemany.caSome really interesting electric power math here for #BCFerries upcoming large transitional hybrid-to-full electric ferries. They will be known as the “Summit” class. 2100 passengers and crew, almost 400 cars. These are big ships.
Equivalent to the biggest Spirit Class between Victoria and Tsawwassen. So would be replacing the last of the 1970s Queens and possibly one of the Spirit or Coastal ships? We’ll see.
Anyway: They will initially have 10Megawatt Hours (MWh) of battery capacity as hybrid diesel/electric which is interesting, not natural gas like some of the other recent hybrids. (Which always felt like a stupid political decision to show off LNG, not a sound engineering decision)
They will then, once docks are upgraded for electric charging, be refit with 60MWh of batteries (total 70MWh) to “enable 2 hours of emissions free sailing”. In distance terms, that’s the one-way sailing time between Duke Point Terminal in Nanaimo and Tsawwassen in Vancouver, about 40 nautical miles (74km).
For comparison, my Kona EV car has a 65kilowatt hour battery… 1000x less capacity!.. giving a range of 450km.
That’s a very heavy ship!!🛳️
It’s a pretty tight capacity window considering the major routes are all between 1.5hrs and 2hrs. But they could be being conservative in the press release, indicating they would comfortably fit those timelines, or they will be still using hybrid power and shore docking ports to augment and ensure they have adequate power. They will always need lots of reserve and backup for safety.
I also imagine in the 30-60 year lifetime of the ships, we could see the energy density of batteries in general increase, so a refit in 2040 or 2050 could replace 70MWh with 100 or 140MWh in the same physical space.
What seems sure though is that B.C. Ferries is going to have some, if not the, largest fully electric capable ferries in the world. That’s a good thing.
First ship of 4 will arrive from China in 2029. Last of the class arrives in 2031. So hopefully we get our first ride in 2030! Looking forward to it!
