The person above was asking what people use AVX512 for and video encoding is a big use case, better GPU encoders don't change that.

That has nothing to do with what you claimed in the grandparent post and what this person was replying to. You said you can't 'purify' air with a small off the shelf air filter and many people gave you examples to the contra

The better business bureau is not an authority in the same way that a government regulations body is.

I can definitely accept twitter as a company not using its potential. Even if they just fire lots of employees, make their pages load faster, stop making their pages break on two thirds of every external links and sprinkle some lightweight

It says from 1 to N inclusive, so each offset would need to have 1 subtracted from it. (Yes I realize it would just be an iota function in c++)

Interestingly these same sorts of visual patterns can be found when generating samples using poor pseudo random numbers like C rand() function. When using C++ mersenne twister algorithm the obvious coherency patterns go away.

That's just saying the same thing.

People do exactly that. More cores, even at a lower frequency still benefit from the ratio of cycles to memory latency being reduced. The computing power and energy usage is much better, the problem is only software taking advantage of mor

The cell wasn't meant to be the main cpu at any point. It was thought that it could be the GPU. Sony out a separate GPU in later and left the CPU, GPU and cell all mixed together. Also a lot of great stuff was eventually done with th

Cars and vehicles are going to be produced anyway. There are also vehicles smaller than cars (electric bikes and scooters) and buses (China has already made huge progress with electric buses). Cheaper batteries also mean emergency gas gene

No one is saying that. Knuth was frustrated with people wasting time on micro optimizations. Those don't really exist in the same form any more. Architecture is far more important to the speed of software and that does need to be de

I try to remind people whenever I can that Knuth was talking about noodling loops in miniscule way. Between optimizing compilers, out of order super scalar CPUs and very different performance characteristics of modern CPUs, what he was tal

It should go over like a lead balloon since it is literally illegal discrimination.

You are making decisions based on arbitrary labels and demographics, not on the person. It is the definition of descrimination. Not only that, but it's blatantly hypocritical since you don't spend your money based on the demograp

Good luck with that. After the coins are moved to various other addresses, then what? What if part of an address' balance is from a small transaction from one of these addresses?

This is a logical fallacy known as appeal to tradition

by BubRoss 7y ago
If they don't have the private keys and use them to move the balance to addresses that only they control, they didn't really seize anything.

Damaging the processor? A CPU being unstable while overclocked doesn't mean it is damaging the CPU.

If that were possible it would be exploited on every instance of the insecure software. Luckily what you are saying is far fetched. Why is it that you think a VPS is some fragile thing that is sure to be exploited? There are literally mil

by BubRoss 7y ago
Sound like FUD, what reason do you have to think a VPS set up correctly would have such a high probability of being exploited? What numbers do you have that show this is common? (Also, again, someone could easily run something locally)

by BubRoss 7y ago
It is plausible to run a service on a $5 VPS. Pay $120 ahead of time and you have it for two years. I don't know why you think it would be so fragile. It wouldn't be difficult to run locally either.

What does that mean?

You asked the question and now you don't like the 'idea' of the answer. Use real numbers instead of feels, and again if you need real concurrency, use a real database.
