But I once has a math student in my physics class who prefer submitting her assignment typeset in LaTeX. I told her it’s up to her, but it wasn’t a requirement from us. She basically said it would be more difficult to do the assignment othe

A minor flaw: it is said in a way like it is 2 choices out of 4, which gives you 6 combinations. But it is more like two choices each for 2 independent “axes”, which gives you 4 combinations, exhausted in the elaboration that follows. (For

I have my own bootstrapping scripts but lately I’m interested in nix-darwin and related ecosystems to reproducibly setup a Mac.

If you want to, you can invest time in automating this so that you can feel at home at every boxes. Surely it is some work to ensure your user environment are all the same across different machines. But it is also liberating as you are no l

You can install it very easily without permission (unless I misunderstood the permission part is not technical but political.)

I tried this couple of times and once a few days ago and wasn’t impressed. Coming from powerlevel10k it seems more limiting and not really faster. Has anyone think starship is better than powerlevel10k and how? Thanks.

Am I the only one who is getting tired of comments complaining about people put “written in Rust” in the title? Lately every post having “written in Rust” has a comment like this. If you don’t care, ignore it. Why should it bother you so mu

If you try to implement a simple matmul and you’ll understand. You can start with a naive one as a baseline. Then a few standard tricks can be used to speed it up. And then compare that to a standard BLAS call. And you’ll find that even wit

Zprezto is a good alternative which is also faster. I eventually migrated to zim because of its minimalist approach. I think starting from Oh My Zsh or zprezto can be a good choice. Once you get a feel of what zsh can accomplish, eventually

I agree things in your list are also important, but I’d say for anyone having tinnitus would agree that nothing in that list compares to the constant torture of what tinnitus is. On one hand, it is not that bad, one is not disabled by havin

That’s what I was alluded to when I mentioned GitHub. I have that app, but I already foresee that workflow won’t work for me and my wife. So I didn’t do it that way. But the way you say it seems to mean it no longer work?

People using Obsidian Sync said it solves these issues (I guess by using a database rather than directly via file I/Os.) There are other solutions via plugins too. E.g. Dropbox, Google Drive, or GitHub. There was a post earlier in HN w

I made the choice at the time I knew this, and preferred FOSS, but the alternatives just wasn’t as usable, so in the end I still chose this, partly because at least I still have complete control over the data (not true for some alternatives

One tip I’d have is to go easy on plugins. One can try to explores what are available, but when committing (to have it enabled and relying on it) be cautious about its implications on performance and startup time (there is a setting that ca

Why should the sentence be capitalized in the first place? A quick scan on other submissions seems to indicate it is not true, at least for longer sentence. Why should a shorter sentence be then? Claiming it is a title wouldn’t win the argu

You can obtain a publish version of this manuscript: https://myscp.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1016/j.jcps.201... You’ll need an institutional login though. Point 6 and 8 can easily be misunderstood if the text

I probably wasn't clear. I don't doubt your first statement "The Top of the TOP500 machines are all liquid cooled." My skepticism is your second statement "due to physics constraints". It may very well be true

I'm going through a similar thing. Next week our procurement is arriving, but most likely majority of the nodes will sit in a box for a while before they can figure out how to power them... Also, this involves a UK university where it

“Has implications” is a very weak statement. Even if it is a very small effect but measurable fits that description. “Irrelevant” is a very strong statement. It claims no effect at all. A single example does not justify the claim. You need

I’m a bit skeptical about the claim that the top of the TOP500 are all liquid cooled due to physical constraints. (Where the “physics” here seems to mean the density and property of air cool in general but ignoring the environment of the ma

It is low probably because the meeting degree they are having already take up most of the time, and may also be because for those better equipped in math they are in research that requires more sophisticated level of math already (ie self s

I’d guess, without knowing the details, this is already how it is done? Guessing can only take you so far, not to mention some pages has no straight lines (and I think you need orthogonal lines for the reconstruction to be effective?) and s

Did the one you hate include Duo? That’s the only one I’m using that is not TOTP based. But eventually I find a way to get the secret and generate the 2-factor myself. I agree with you about using a password manager to solve these kind of p

It depends on what kind of friction you’re talking about too. Eg it is well known that for some fluid (air for example), the friction can be proportional to the speed instead, to a certain extend of course, and can be proved in an idealized
