Any way to cram the 64 cores sku from the DeepComputing developer box into a laptop?

Fully understood, this carefully engineered vendor lock-in is the cherry on the cake. It's in all CAD software for no reason and forces you to follow the herd. Open standards should be imposed by state actors...

That's dirt cheap for a software you can make a living off. For FEA or CFD one would need to shell off in the order of 50-100k plus 20k per year. 1500? I would.

Companies don't exist, individuals do. It's all coming from a few sociopaths that will happily go poisoning another company.

The tool is great, it's what you can build with it that has a tendency to end up in an horrid unmaintainable vba mix kludge.

They might only need a calculator then. It's not ok to throw a spreadsheet at every problem.

I could not use the Itanium server we had at work as it was reserved for the elite. I can say that my 32 bits single core P4 computer was not faster at number crunching.

To my understanding Intel tried to move from x86 with Itanium. That's the consumers who wanted it to linger around.

Managers are coming with a better compensation exactly because they are taking responsibility. If not then they have to be paid at the same level as workers.

That would be ok if git gave the option to track branches in subfolders and leave other branches alone. I had a look at submodules but I'm not clever enough to understand how it could help me.

it's just that it's the only lever you have at hand that is actually wired to something.

Idle consumption made me lean toward a rk3588 vs a n100. Half the single thread performance though. Supported by dietpi, so no issue with the os.

Good memories... I ended up adding a switch under the cells cover because the mod was just draining these way faster. But curve plotting was finally snappy.

Well, if one is stupid enough to get a race car with telemetry then the spying is deserved. The skill level is irrelevant insurance-wise, as it doesn't last, varies within the day, and is of no use on open, shared streets. Now the drea

Can’t stop fearing that messing with the living like that is going to badly backfire at some point. The sad aspect is that it’s solely for frivolous reasons and profit. But damn, these petunias are cool.

I had the same feeling, once meeting the right person. You can’t help when it happens.

2% is about the ratio of earth cross section area to Argentina surface, that sums up. Proximity should not impact the efficiency as the Sun is not a point source and what is important is effectively the ratio of lit/shaded surface. Now

How can it works? The moon is already huge and when it’s eclipsing the sun it’s only shading a small spot. One would need to block a significant fraction of the solid angle between the sun and earth. The smallest side is on earth side, and

Individuals don’t adapt, a specie is through selection of best individuals. Since humans mostly managed to escape from selective pressure we are probably not going anywhere in such a short time I guess.

From the pictures it seems he was living in Lignères, a small village in the Jura "mountains". For sure you have to be humble to live here when you could afford to live in Gstaad. It says all about the man and his priorities in li

Wild to discover he’s been living in my area while I’ve been using autocad and inventor all this time. There’s even a picture of the brass band my neighbour is playing in… Life is strange. https://www.fourmilab.ch/images&#x2
