It could be me not understanding something but: > Since there is a 25% probability Alice is at the grocery store, we multiply that with the probility of her transitioning to the Planetarium: 25% ∗ 75% Shouldn't this be 25% * 70%?

It is easy to make my 2019 16" MBP consume more than the 96W that the included charger provides. Loading the CPU alone gets you close to that. Just add some discrete GPU work and there you go. In fact, since connecting an external disp

To be fair, you can compare those 80 CUs to the Xbox Series X 52 CUs. Or to any other AMD’s RDNA2 GPU out there. You are going to need to know what’s the core frequency and other GPU specs to properly compare but it is not just marketing.

In AMD’s terms, a Compute Unit is roughly a grouping of Stream Processors. It has more stuff than the SPs and the exact configuration is different across architectures/generations If you’re interested in this particular GPU you’ll want

On Nvidia cards the RT cores are the ones handling BVH traversal and ray-triangle intersection operations. The part of the hardware that is running the DLSS ML model are the tensor cores. But the algorithm and the model itself is not baked

I would assume that's because the hardware they provide is for calculating the triangle-ray intersection. You can use that for path tracing, but not only.

The referendum can happen anyway and the application of the result can be done by modifying the Constitution. Let's be honest, the only reason not to allow the referendum is that the Spanish Gvnt. does not want it to happen.
