I do enjoy how reviewers are now using software rendering of Crysis as a benchmark, even if it's just a joke. It would be pretty interesting to see what kind of game engine you could make if it was hyper-optimized around software rende

While not all the new features will be in this release, the rate of improvement for Blender's sculpting tools has been astounding. For example, the new cloth brush: ( https://twitter.com/pablodp606/status/1223

As someone who has used both PyTorch and TensorFlow for a couple years now, I can can attest to the faster research iteration times for PyTorch. TensorFlow has always felt like it was designed for some mythical researcher that could come up

This doesn't have much to do with the algorithms, and is more to do with the engineering decisions that went into AlphaGo and AlphaZero. They are designed to play one combinatorial game really well. With a bit of additional efffort and

One thing Microsoft has really nailed, is the location diversity of Azure datacenters. They have multiple locations in South Africa and UAE, while also having regions in multiple cities across Australia, Japan and India. If I wanted to laun

For anyone wanting to jump in now, here's a good guide for making your first model in Blender 2.8, even if you have never made a model before: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBqYTgaFDxU

It's just a matter of following the money. A bigger and bigger slice of Microsoft's income is coming from Azure, and an increasing proportion of Azure users are running Linux. This gives them strong incentive to be the business le

Apple seems to provide IOS updates, at least with the iPhones, for about 4-5 years. Assuming the trend holds with the SE, I would probably expect them to at least support it into mid 2020.

I have seen people suggest that the "10 year challenge" was created to build an age-related training dataset. While the mannequin challenge was probably just spontaneous, I wonder if we will see an increasing number of viral chall

The problem is that the play store is a monopoly. If neither Amazon nor Samsung can create an app store with even a small fraction of the total useful apps found on the play store, who can? And if you can't find one particular app on t

To draw some analogies, Japan has some very conservative people in power, but that's more to do with the election systems that give more power to monolithic parties that attract rural voters. When you look at the proportional vote (Jap

Affordable RISC-V systems will only happen if they reach a comparable level of mass production as proprietary systems. What you will more likely see for now is a gradual increase in the number of components on GPUs, HDDs etc which use RISC-

Similar to Shiny is Bokeh for python, which appears to be trying to replicate the Shiny experience. While you can only get so much control without resorting to JS injections, it's pretty good for [select options -> search -> visu

The first thing I do when I get a new Android phone, or update the OS, is disable all animations. As a consequence, my Nexus 5X is in some respects more responsive than many flagship phones today. Sometimes animation can feel nice, but afte
