So random. Was just reading about Wu's Algorithm. Drawing pairs of pixels and shading based on distance. Old school techniques are fast. New school AI-upsampling is what they used to dream about ;) https://en.wikipedia.org&#

Cool. No crypto-to-fiat exchange necessary. Salvador becomes the lab: a pure BTC medium of exchange for local goods and services, as well as receiving remittances internationally. Up close, it just looks like scanning a QR code ;) Bullish f

Great list! Stanford CS has been very open about putting its resources online. But the curriculum I've been increasing into lately is that offered by the Design Group. And that seems to be a carefully shrouded secret ;)

In terms of generating pure alpha, quant funds will arguably be dominant through 2030s. 2 Sigma, Man Group, BlackRock, etc. Even main street banks are using Aladdin for portfolio management. Try their community outreach. You may be able to

Well, I believe the meta-question here is: why aren't we experiencing Moore's Law rates of efficiency in all aspects of human life? Doubling in performance every two years or so. Even if pricing remains relatively constant. I thin

Aptly named, as the first simulations will be detecting dark matter. What's incredible is that optical simulation in high energy physics can be reduced to ray tracing in computer graphics. Photon generation and propagation directly map
