There are tons of resource types only available via cfn compared to cloud control api vs terraform vs direct api, any decently complex deployment often requires mixing one or more options just to get full coverage

The same is true pretty much everywhere else (cryptography, sport, electrical engineering, aeronautics, ..). There is no greater teacher than a head injury or an electrical fire, the question is whether OP's fear is warranted or whethe

Believe it or not this stuff is easy mode once you learn to ignore the terminology. It takes relatively little knowledge to know how to get data into the right format, set sensible training parameters and check results -- basically a handfu

I'm not so sure about this, their description specifically calls out one-time-only costs like domain registrations as being the only things excluded. Cautiously optimistic in addition to the recent reappearance of new GPU models being

I don't think it's fair to call it their free tier - it's their discretionary tier, there are numerous cases of the rug being pulled as and when it suits their business requirements to do so. Being left homeless vs. urgently

Given the size of the Sindarin team (3 AFAICT), that mostly looks like a clever combination of existing tech. There are some speech APIs that offer word-by-word realtime transcription (Google has one), assuming most of the special sauce is

AIUI the minimum latency on these is always measured in milliseconds, with 6-7ms apparently commonplace, which you're going to immediately feel using e.g. a block or network storage protocol. No references, but did look at moca for exa

I kept the motherboard as a compromise. Serious corrosion at this point but very unlikely to ever throw it out

Wouldn't mind knowing total number of hours / audio / video codec / resolutions for that 30TB collection. Immediate thought is ridiculously overspecced codec configuration or signs of an addiction. Are they stored as los

The latency on this (or lack thereof) is the best I've seen, would love to know more about how it's achieved. I asked the bot and it claimed you're using Google's speech recognition, which I know supports streaming, but

I think good in-home vision models are probably still a little bit away yet, but it seems already the case you could start to plan for their existence. It would also be possible to fine-tune a puny model to trigger a function to pass the im

There must have been 100 folk with the same idea at the same time, I'm very excited for having something like this running mics in my home so long as it's running locally (and not costing $30/mo. in electricity to operate). L

Ran into a variant of this when working on an IO loop, ended up with a little "Side" abstraction to wrap bidirectional/unidirectional descriptors to behave identically for the rest of the library. It's an annoying wart b

The trouble with OAuth is to get a production client ID you must pass a third party security audit.. this is in excess of $20k and AIUI must be repeated periodically. Using a developer client ID is already heavily limited, and I have no dou

You so much as blink at these cards and they mysteriously stop booting, my 4K-capable A7R IV tops out at 100 Mbit/sec write rate for video, that's almost 24 hours worth on a 1TB card. Given the technical limitations of these devic

It's not just cache locality, but also at least the effectiveness of cache prefetching and the ability to use wider operations.. simple array loops are something compilers can often vectorize without assistance.

Not least for the sake of power management, the central push provider needs to authenticate (and e.g. rate limit) notifications to a particular device. The identities of apps communicating with a particular device therefore seem to need to

According to stackoverflow over 70% of the industry are younger than 34, I think a few grey hairs are needed before "because security" attains its invariable meaning

Seems to run about "2x realtime" on 2015 4 core i7-6700HQ laptop, that is, 5 seconds to generate 10 seconds of output. Can imagine that being 4x or greater on a real machine

I run two XPS 15s (2015ish 9550 workhorse / main computer, 2022ish 9250) and haven't had the slightest issue with either, although I keep the on board Nvidia disabled on both, which might explain the "reasonable power consump
