I wonder how they compare the machine learning performance of the integrated GPU. Does anyone know if any of the ML libraries support the new architecture? AFAIK most libraries don't support anything other than nVidia. Any tests on tra

Yes, you're right. I meant Rosetta2. It's good to have native binaries nevertheless.

I reckon they'd finally have to get R working natively on the new chip. I don't foresee Apple offering the fat binary support in the long term. It's probably only an intermediate solution for the transitional period. Also, d

This is one thing that I hate the most about IOS. I like the polished look and the usability. To be completely honest, I don't need to have a shell running on my phone. I'm not going to write a shell script to automate anything on

That's a really small sample size. Are they allowed to publish a study like this for such a small sample? Does anyone know if there is a minimum threshold size?

I've a rant unrelated to the story! Amazon is different in that way. I'm already paying for the subscription and some movies are available only to rent or purchase. Very different from Netflix. The user interface is pathetic. It p

I'd no knowledge of SML until I came across the Programming Languages course by Washington Uni on Coursera. I tried learning Scala first but then never got anywhere. This course was amazing. Unfortunately, didn't have enough time

Nice one. I'm one of those non-CS background person in IT. Although, I'm not a dev, I do write a lot of code in SQL and Python for data analysis. People like me can benefit a lot from understanding algorithms. Especially because w

I agree with some of the comments about composabilty of SQL. I've been doing SQL since more than 14 years. Most of it was spent working on ETL projects for Finance and Utilities industries. Even today 80% of the code I write in pySpark

I just downloaded the book and glanced over the content. While I've a physical copy of the book by prof. John Tskilis, I will use this as a reference. I'm particularly interested in chapter 9 that deals with the applications in Py

I'm not surprised. I've seen all kind of shit working for enterprise clients. Only one of them adhered to very high standards and had processes for everything. They were a military contractor and most of the clients were ex-milita

You'd be surprised to hear how many big organisations still use Excel for their reporting needs. I used to worked at a company with 35000 employees. Their payroll reports were generated using a MS Access database and reported using Exc

You're right that I wouldn't have been a great sitter. Primarily because I don't understand them enough. Also psychiatric help is proven and should be the first step in dealing with mental health issues. There have been studi

Thank you for the comment. I don't know much about it. I actually have three friends who're going though it. One of them is seeing a psychiatrist and is coping well. The second (who called me) has been self-dosing on these natura

Wow.. Already been downvoted. I think my advice wasn't wrong. Going through such experience with someone like me who doesn't understand it can be risky. Hence, I suggested to see a psychiatrist.

I got a call from a friend today, who is dealing with depression. He has ready many such articles and has been microdosing on psilocybin mushrooms. He wanted my help to be with him as a sober person when he goes through the experience. I ha

This looks brilliant. This can be very useful to grasp the concepts of probability and statistics in a visual way. I've been struggling to understand some of the concepts and I hope to use this as a supplement. Although, I don't b

If it's mostly reading something or media consumption on the move, even an 11 inch screen is good enough. I'd rather have an iPad pro or the new Air. Granted the iPad OS is sort of restrictive and still doesn't allow any inte

That's a very specific requirement. But yes it does make some sense.

I'm really apprehensive of any folding screens, mostly because of their durability. I don't see a need for it. Innovation is great, but does this really help with anything? Can anyone please tell me why this would be great a choic

Yes, you're right. I overreacted. I was thinking about applying for a masters of science in Statistics. I'm doing an online course from MIT to earn some credits. I could use these at RMIT and Deakins for advanced standing. I was i

This article seems to talk about one particular professor, if I'm not wrong. Does anyone know if the majority of the advisors at MIT behave like this? Has anyone else on this forum had any experience like this? I'm sure if the adv

@webmobdev That is interesting and ground water levels are already pretty low in India. Many cities are suffering from water shortages. We were only told about the problems from an engineering stand point. @devxpy Absolutely. I remember lis

Yes, that's the hope. Less than 20% of the electricity is produced from renewable sources in my state (Victoria, AU). If the number of EVs increase that's just going to put more pressure on the grid and will require burning more c

I don't know what percentage of electricity generated in California comes from renewable energy. If it's not 100% renewable then the EVs won't be Zero-emission either! Let's not even talk about range anxiety, charging ti
