A bit confused, are you ranting that the western media didn't cover enough during the wildfire season or you are pointing out the the local media only focusing on sensitive population in Malaysia ?

Ignore the obvious siew yok, the herbal tea is also steep, that's the profit margin that funded the stall operators. And since it includes Service Tax, presumably their total taxable services exceeded RM1.5mil for a calendar year.

Yet, the furniture in the stall (or restaurant) are pathetic, dirty and all plastic, look at the plates, table, chairs....

The food stall / restaurant owner is a half Nigerian half Zimbabwean origin running a successful business here, making a great life here than his previous career in remote call center pretending to be Leonardo DiCaprio, or Justin Tremblay.

Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, The coming land of voyeurism and lewdism [1, 2]

Long story short, tourists found homestay operator installed spycam in the room, called police, homestay owner said tourists intended to con RM400 fees of the night, police advised tourists to remove evidence and post from social media. Tourists checked out the very next day. No action taken and investigation into the homestay owner voyeur fantasy operation.

What. The. Actual. Fuck ?

We need to know which homestay to avoid it completely. Homestay, AirBnB and the like are seemingly worse than Hotel these days.

PS: the news didn't get reported in other daily other than chinese media.

It is only the beginning, I think news have reported that more than a dozen of areas in south Kalimantan and south Sumatra having been identified as hotspots responsible for the smog, and will continue to ravage the provinces.

And if combines with low rainfalls, it is not looking good.

The new A17 Pro 3nm chip comes with hardware Ray Tracing, so we will expect the next gen Apple M3 series GPU performance boost. Hopefully, the gap with discrete GPU get closer.

When it comes to agriculture in Malaysia, one cannot separate it from FELDA. Now, I'm lazy to dig the history of budget on just how much the government pump tax payers money into it since its' establishment decades ago. Then, comes the promises that the government will forgo all the debt incurred by farmers who are members of the club FELDA. I don't know the figures, but one can assume it is astronomical.

Then, another promise that RM1 Billion will be channeled to FELDA annually for the next 10 years, total RM10 Billion.

And after all the 'milking', this is the state of local produces, heavy dependent on imports, and now lack of clean water, what the actual fucking fuck.

It sounds like a classic ponzi scheme for never ending funding that will never yield any results, but a black hole of cronyism.

The best analogy I could think of is same with Durians, if you like it, you like it. The tofu itself smells like sewer, similar to durian smells like turd.

Other than the shape, it tastes nothing like sushi at all, and the price is steep for the ingredient compared to the real one.

Between Zahid and Moo, we don't really have a choice, do we? But if you put PAS into the picture, depends on your ideology and political spectrum, it will be obvious. Moo also strangled with corruption cases, and the amount of embezzlement also on-par with Zahid if not greater; the number of charges, however, is leading by Zahid.

Then, we have the second coming of Iskandar Kutty...

 

I found this on reddit which I reluctantly to cite it here [1], anyway the comments and the findings were as vague as Apple claiming they beat Nvidia RTX 3090 GPU with that fancy chart.

Regardless, all Apple current lineups, incl. Macbooks, Mac mini, Mac Studio Max come with 16-core Neural Engine, and the Ultra comes with 32-core Neural Engine.

What does it actually do despite all the marketing claims that none other than BS vague stuffs that only accessible to Apple proprietary apps, Finder, FaceTime, Final Cut Pro...

And from the schematic diagram of Apple M series SoC, the Neural Engine used significant space of the SoC.

Does Pytorch and other ML frameworks actually utilize that 16/32-core ?
