There exists scientific visualization tool that goes far beyond what you can visualize in gaming domain, e.g. some applications are deployed on supercomputers so that you can change parameters interactively with the visualization. Gaming is

What you said can be violated when parallelism is involved. One such example is that we know some floating point operations such as addition and multiplication are non-commutative, hence it depends on order of execution to complete reductio

Speaking of which I never fully understand the meaning of OP. It seems there’s a few semantic ranges there and people sometimes use OP standing for slightly different things.

Off topic: any tool to have a quick summarization like this? --- The blog post is about the discovery of a purported room-temperature-and-pressure (RTP) superconductor, labeled "LK-99". The discovery was announced in two papers pu

That's not natural at all. Eg pybind11 is more natural.

Why do you think it would help? It provides a nice interface but is using multiprocessing or multi threading under the hood depending on which executioner you use: > The ProcessPoolExecutor class is an Executor subclass that uses a pool

The theorem assumes the function has identical domain and codomain. Eg f(x) = x^3 maps [0, 1] to itself. So that's why they gave the glass stirring example, the domain here is the whole volume of water. So as long as it ends up in the

To add to this argument, I'd suggest framing it in terms of harm reduction too. To illustrate, we know that a bullet proof way to make a person's carbon footprint zero is for them to die. But no one would ever advocate this for ob

It's poor wording, but I think it is suppose to mean "if x is the amount of warming seen, we are causing more than x amount of them." Ie without human cause it would have negative warming.

ABC is easier to learn but also not feature rich. ABC vs Lilypond is similar to asciiMath vs MathJax in this aspect. You'll soon find its limitation and needs more. (But Lilypond is hard, harder than writing documents in LaTeX for exam

It is not easy to program Xeon Phi if you want to get performance. It is easy to run any application on it, but it is also easy to run it slower than a cheaper Xeon with much less core count. It was a big experiment, and it failed. Some of

It takes a double pumped approach to use 2 cycle with 256bit wide to finish a AVX 512 instruction. So it sort of does.

Laser printer is known to cause a surge event too. Normally there's a limited amount of surge protection available and routine surge would gradually used up the pool. However, surge protection may not be as important. I heard an argume

It would becomes a power event on the UPS. Not only you should not plug it in a UPS (the initial surge when a laser printer is on would likely surpass the power limit of your UPS too), a laser printer and an UPS should not be under the same

I think it is an older saying but I don't know who said it first. The version I heard was from scientist and the rule is to first buy the cheapest tool that does the job, then when you need something better, buy the best that you can a

Another factor to consider is that walking that much faster than average traffic is difficult in dense place. While I don't have a measurement, I typically walk ~twice as fast as the average speed on the street. I once was walking in a

If there's a recipe to produce the change, ask for the recipe instead (and better yet, put it in the commit.) Then if you can reproduce that PR, and tests are passing, skim through it and see if nothing funny. Then it should be good to

My guess about the use of lua would be simply because he don't want to commit it to pandoc yet. If you push it to pandoc, it's next to impossible to remove it, or change its behavior in a backward incompatible way. So naturally, s

My wife and I have a very similar situation and concern with you. One thing I'm sure is that we can't recall much from 2020-2021. It all seems like a black out to us where we went through extreme isolation. And because of that I a

Political view aside, if you repeatedly let the people vote to be independent, then eventually they are going to be independent. It is similar to the principle of p-hacking. A fundamental problem here is that getting independent is easier t

I am heavily biased towards stability in this case, and would normally go for the cheaper one. If you put both side by side and shake the table you will see what I mean. I didn't bother to shot a video since I'm not into reviewing
