yeah for real time signals higher frequency makes sense (very briefly before you fft and kill the high frequencies), but for stored signals nyquist is king.

From what I've heard, the SSC would have had higher power, but much worse luminosity (i.e. much more noise) than the LHC.

it depends what the purpose of grading is. if the people is to purely assess, grading question by question is better. if the purpose is to provide feedback, knowing how the student did in general can substantially help with identifying what

no (in both directions). lots of np/exp problems paralize well and you can be in NC and parallelize really inefficiently (e.g. you can get a 10x speedup, but you need 1000000x the hardware). the better framing is that NC is the class o

Add/Sub isn't 1 cycle if you want overflow handling. One of the really nice parts about float is that it loses precision gradually.

The mitigation here is to make it only turn on after 60 days. most places don't store cctv footage for more than a month, so if you have a dummy period, by the time it's noticed, the footage will be gone

The good rule that most of Europe uses is that motorcycles can "lane filter" (i.e. go in between lanes but only for cars that are basically stopped and only at low speed). Going between lanes is suicidal at high speed, but if cars

The comparison isn't half a billion for a datacenter, it's half a billion for a big shed (and some solar panels). The problem of space based data centers is that the only effort they save you is building a big shed to put the GPUs

Not necessarily. The GPU leases Spacex has made are month to month, so they are taking on all of the risk. If demand goes down, they're the ones stuck with the assets.

Part of the problem with this argument is that for them to be worth a lot, you need both the amount of stuff launched into space to go up massively and for no one else to be able to build a rocket that's anywhere near as good. Spacex i
