I'll need to look into the other clouds. But as for Amazon, the page about their Elastic IP price change clarifies that the free tier includes 12 months only, making the IP itself a nontrivial fraction of the total cost to run an insta

I'm running a Common Lisp webserver with (I believe) nginx in front. It's fairly low maintenance, but it is dynamic web content (the entire point is to generate names on request), so I unless the CDN has some sort of function inte

To add some more detail to sibling's answer: The optimal size will depend on the application. It's certainly reasonable that in some applications, many/most strings would be under 24 bytes and thus the small string optimizati

I guess I'll defend the minority opinion. For context, I write over 100k words a year. That's something like 150 pages depending on how you format it. This includes both technical documents (which I mainly do in Latex) and more tr

It also applies to this situation: 1. Create a private repo R 2. Create a private fork F of R 3. Push commits to the fork F 4. Make R public The commits pushed to F prior to R being made public will become de facto publ

If your point is that HIP is not a zero-effort porting solution, that is correct. HIP is a low -effort solution, not a zero effort solution. It targets users who already use and know CUDA, and minimizes the changes that are required from p

by eslaught 2y ago
Are you aware of HIP? It's officially supported and, for code that avoids obscure features of CUDA like inline PTX, it's pretty much a find-and-replace to get a working build: https://github.com/ROCm/HIP Don&

Your analysis seems to assume that the only form of motivation is external. By this logic, persistent/obstinant people do things because they hope for some external reward (e.g., praise, recognition, fame, possibly financial compensati

Thanks for the reply. I really do appreciate it, because coming from the still photography world I've never understood this. Not to be pendantic, but you can't you achieve motion blur by blending frames? That is, shoot at 1/2

I'm reading NeuroTribes by Steve Silberman, and while I'm not all the way through, the narrative of there being a "real" autism (and specifically as identified by Kranner) is very problematic at several levels. First, Kr

Unfortunately this was years ago so I'm not sure I can dig that far into specifics. Overall, combinators (almost by definition) have the property that you can plug anything into anything else. Haskell encourages a "zero-point&quot

by eslaught 2y ago
So, I agree with your take as a reaction to this article specifically. However, I also think that there is a legitimate point here. Which is that parser combinators, even in languages like Haskell, are shockingly tricky to use correctly.

Thanks, this is fascinating. Re-reading your comment above, I had missed that you were assigning the output of the hash function back into the state. I.e., something like: state = initial_seed def random(): state = hash(st

I work in CS and we do (mostly) conference publishing. I could be wrong, but I don't think PC chairs are paid, by anybody. Maybe they get free housing at the conference, but this is more of a consolation prize given the amount of work

You're thinking about a sign and magnitude representation, which is not how integers are represented in a modern computer. The modern version is two's complement. It still has a sign bit, but negating a number involves more than j
