EU institutions force them by controlling the policy. Sure, if you have a few millions to invest, you can go elsewhere, but if you have billions, you are most usually working with other people's or institutional money, and are fairly l

There are other models other than two extremes. For example, in (at least some) European countries there is not such thing as private person going bankrupt. However, of course that that person won't be sold to slavery. Simply, if you c

That remains to be seen. Until now, it was quite the opposite.

Doesn't any language that support Unicode allow that? Java for example. But, it's rather impractical to use, since greek letters are not that easy to type with English keyboard.

Interestingly, 500 years ago, math was to your taste. There were not much symbols in it, but lots and lots of English (or, more often, French, German, or Latin) sentences that took paragraphs upon paragraphs of text to describe what today a

I just wish to report that I had only good experience in communicating with Nix/Nixos/Nixpkgs community. When someone could solve something that didn't work for me, they did. When no one could or didn't have time, they k

Actually, I doubt that performance itself will be much different, since ClojureCL/OpenCL is quite good, even on Nvidia. The main benefits of using ClojureCUDA over ClojureCL may be some CUDA-specific functionality, and access to CUDA l

When we're here, I have to jump in with my own: https://www.scribd.com/doc/167706815/EVALUATION-OF-TRANSFORM... The whole sting is later analyzed in a serious scientific journal: https://sci-hub.cc

That is irrelevant. Anyone who is remotely competent to read any scientific article will recognize predatory journal with a quick glance. I doubt that predatory articles have even a couple of reads. The problem is something else: those arti

Don't be easily fooled. Even people in 3rd world countries who work at universities understand what a predatory journal is, and in fact publish there because they get easy publication with no sweat.

Austria didn't declare war against Serbs (the ethnic group), but it declared war and invaded Serbia (the country in which only a part of the ethnic group lived). Moreover, Gavrilo Princip wasn't even a citizen of Serbia but the ci

On the other hand, my 3 year old R9 290X runs a heavily optimized OpenCL code at the 70% of the speed at which my brand new Nvidia 1080 runs the equivalent code. 1080 costs close to 1000 euro, while R9 could probably be found second hand fo

Or, you know, people do a lot of typing in English or on English keyboard (when programming), and don't care or even want to switch keyboards to type something with diacritics.

Then it looks to me that there is no problem.

I prefer to use OpenCL, but I think the second key factor why Nvidia dominates (the first is they integrated tooling) is that cuBLAS, cuFFT, cuDNN et.al work out of the box when you install CUDA Toolkit. clBLAS and clFFT? Good luck using th

WRT Incanter, you might find some high-performance libraries interesting: http://neanderthal.uncomplicate.org and http://github.com/uncomplicate/bayadera . They are much more low-level than Incanter, but als

Neanderthal is a Clojure library for native-speed vectors and matrix computations. It has pluggable engines and comes with support for GPU computations. Program in Clojure and get the full speed of native and GPU libraries. Of course, it is

Not only they are humans (homo neanderthalensis vs homo sapiens, but both homo) but there are traces of Neanderthal DNA in modern humans, since there was interbreading among them. So, no wonder they are comparable to us, since they are not

Too bad you've posted from the throwaway, otherwise I'd give you an UPvote :) Curiously, if I had to come up with stereotypical descriptions, I'd say I'd come with something similar. :)

Heh, nice idea, pay them. With what money? Even Switzerland would have a really difficult time with that. The problem with small countries is that, well, they are small and poor. Even if you pay small wages, 200k is still a lot of paychecks
