clBLAS is, in my opinion, hard to build AND hard to integrate. On top of it, this approach gives better performance in most cases even on AMD, and especially on Nvidia. Now, I have AMD hardware, but it is better to create an overall more en

Easy: if it works, it uses the ATLAS version that is installed on the system, which means that when it works, it will use the optimized ATLAS that you provided. That means that you have to build it itself, which is problematic on Windows, B

Don't get me started on p values now, but just think about this: "Eight young men (age 20-30 years), six young women (age 20-30 years), nine older men (age 65-75 years), and ten older women (age 65-75 years). The results indicate

I've heard of it lots of times. Practically every forced labor ever had this effect. Work destroys muscle. Nutrition and rest make them recover (and grow in the process). The fiber can be overworked beyond repair.

That is a part of the problem: they assigned people for the task, and produced open-source libraries for matrices, FFT, maybe even something for DNNs. But, those are not polished much, and you have to hunt them down and install them yours

As someone who does (non-NN) ML on AMD, I might ask why you think that AMD is so far behind. In my experience, their GPU hardware is excellent, maybe even better than Nvidia, especially if you factor the price in. Where they ARE lagging hea

I read only the beginning of that discussion. One idea that came to my mind is that they are really looking for a strict linter that do not allow many custom options, something that approaches the strictness of Crockford's JSLint, perh

Do you have any links to historical documents about burning Christians by Nero? From what I've read, a large part of such stories sprang up mostly (or solely) from the early and medieval christian sources, which were dominant or even o

Assuming that the story you've told actually happened. Yeah, two kids in a school didn't want to enter the pool, and they've sent them packing back to (where?) because of that. Have I understood well what you described?
