The 2 smaller chiplets are for core complex, the memory controller is on the IO die(the other bigger one) that these 2 CCX share. So there is still one single memory controller, and hence, not NUMA.
But if you look at the launch price 2700 was $300 and 2700X was $330. I think the difference is so small that it drives people who don't want to manually overclock buy the X version to skip the hassle.
Not sure about VC++, but in gcc you can use -march=native to let the compiler compile the code with all instruction sets available on your CPU, I think there is a VC++ equivalent.
As for already compiled binary, depending on how it was compiled it may or may not work of a different CPU. Also the compiler doesn't do the runtime checks.
In the specific area I worked on, minutes are borderline tolerable so I didn't think twice before posting. But now that you said it, I totally see how it can go on for days.
I worked on both GA and SA and I think it really depends. There are some effective evolution strategies that can speed up the evolution, combine that with a parallel implementation GA can be really fast. But yeah it can take time to figure out a good evolution strategy and SA can solve some problems just fine.
Unfortunately employment opportunity doesn't help in this case. They are already offered jobs/interns but cannot legally start working (anywhere) because they have to wait for the work permit (OPT) to be approved.
Yeah I was having trouble accessing my Gsuite apps, had a couple of 502s, which led me to check HN. While it doesn't give me 502 now, it's abnormally slow.
I bought the previous gen last year when it was on sale and mainly use it for gym or jogging because my phone is too big to carry around. If only they had a up-to-date, small form factor phone (hoping a SE2) then yeah I would switch my phone altogether.
What you said is true. However, if the said country is determined to go full-on isolationist, they have other means to prevent people from using the "holes", like creating laws to go after the people.
To answer your last question, there not a significant Chinese-equivalent to GitHub yet, partly because GitHub is still largely accessible in China. A lot of Chinese tech giants have been active on GitHub and have plenty of repos:
