Would that be in the data loading that you are getting the most benefit? I'm curious, since most of the big libraries are already just cuda calls anyway but I'm always interested in anything to speed up the full process.

Those I can understand. It doesn't really take magical thinking, some viruses perform better at colder temperatures. Things like magnetic bangles, crystals and other stuff does appear in the west. I can't say how prevalent. Anecdo

I don't think you honestly need a high GDP for conflict and violence. There has been a number of genocides that have happened since the Berlin wall came down, that were not performed by advanced military equipment. World's GDP spe

To me this reads like an argument centered on an idealised national soldier. People join the military for multitude of reasons, including just to have a job that isn't working a till. No one is joining the French Foreign Legion to die

It seems that banks are the new target for the UK. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-60476137 London is one of the key centers for global banking. That said, I can't imagine Russian billionaires don't ha

I'm not really a fan of this argument, I think it really fails in explaining the failure of 3d glasses. 3d TV/films don't really change anything about delivery of content, it is a slight augmentation of regular 2d. If we coul

I really don't see how buying more buses to service areas that are lacking is somehow harder or more expensive than a technology that hasn't matured yet to the level that will satisfy the public. I very much hope that the tech doe

That's not what the above comment said. It asked why didn't the academic paper discuss it in a manner that is attempting to cast suspicion on the findings. You discuss your own findings, quite frankly I'm not entirely sure th
