That says they detected it on floors in hospitals. Does it talk about it being on shoes, entering homes and ultimately infecting people?

To be clear, you think that enough people will be paying attention to this study on testing for antibodies that it will hurt the local economy of the place being tested, because the people paying attention don't understand antibodies?

This is effectively noise reduction, which bilateral and guided filters are actually used for. They take the weights of their kernels based on local pixels and statistics. You can also look up other edge preserving filters like BM3D and

Why would it be spread in certain areas and not others? Why would knowing who has antibodies hurt the economy when everyone is already secluded?

I have never seen anyone think GLSL needed first class functions. Can you give me an example of how you would use them instead of a macro? GPUs can't jump to a function pointer as far as I know and macros can't be passed to func

If it was a robo taxi and not your own car, you could go take a different robo taxi. Also, predicting the weather a week out isn't the same as giving an ETA when you can see a map of the storm happening live. That is a completely sepa

In a parking lot the car would be starting from a position it can stay in, so requiring a person to intervene is one option. Also busy parking lots frequently don't stay busy forever and heavy rain doesn't last forever either. A

There are rules to that situation. You can start there, let other cars go ahead of you if they break the rules, go slow and not hit anything. It isn't as if self driving cars can't look to the side or stop if something changes. B

Is this meant as a way to practice K? GLSL is not really a difficult language to program in, it's actually pretty great.

Why would that be true? This is talking about antibody tests and is likely indicative of statistics and patterns common to everywhere else.

You are absolutely right. It doesn't hold water once you look at other professional programs. They all use the same math underneath and love or die to a huge degree based on their interface. Blender being free and open source opens

I don't know why this was downvoted, it seems reasonable to me. A lot of people would have traveled for christmas, new years and chinese new year. Testing was almost non existent. I would bet that everyone by now at least knows someo

None of that has anything to do with software bugs, it doesn't change the behavior of a program. People can understand that or not, it doesn't affect the correctness of the software.

That would not be a bug in the software, that would be a bug in the CPU. Still, I haven't ever heard of this actually happening, do you have a link?

What you are describing is a class of filters known as edge preserving filters. You can look at bilateral filters and guided filters for examples that have been around for decades at this point.

The only thing this guy understands is marketing. I assume somewhere in his book he gets past talking about how great he is from being the first to trade a certain asset class, but I wasn't able to make it that far.

Doing it on a whole program basis is also unlikely to give much benefit. Function calls are extremely fast, they only show their overhead in tight loops.

That is all very interesting. If you were drawing sprites, why not use straight openGL? Do you think it would have worked to organize tiles and threads outside of halide and use halide for isolated parts that are already organized into arr

ISPC in this case is exactly that. It makes vectorization fairly easy and very fast.
