Somewhat disappointed that it's yet another book about Vulkan graphics . I want Vulkan compute .

If software updates/upgrades can be cleanly separated into security fix vs new features/removal of old features, then I think it may be reasonable for governments to enforce mandatory patching. Unfortunately, software doesn&#x27

I hope that he has actually transcended to some higher dimensions, joining other great minds like Einstein and Bohr, and that they are actually playing around with even more advanced forms of physics, peering into black holes and quarks lik

Guaranteeing updates for X years is an empty promise unless they also guarantee the maximum delay in adopting upstream (security) updates and releasing them, with reimbursement in case of failure to comply.

I wonder if they are in fact shooting themselves in the foot in their fight against this cracker. Aren’t there laws that basically invalidate evidence gathered by illegal means?

The real lesson here is to make sure you have a real programming language development environment on any laptop you bring with you. I’m only kidding, of course. This post is actually quite cool.

1. Add a (python/js/whatever) linter plugin to the VR text editor, which will deliver a shock for violating linting rules; 2. ??? 3. Profit!

Oh. Physicists in the area of condensed matter. Got it. I would have written “condensed-matter” with a hyphen to make it more obvious that it’s being used as an adjective.

“last 5 decades” Then they are not really AI failures “of 2017”. More like “AI problems that are still unsolved”, at best.

I live in Hong Kong. I’ve actually caught and released jumping spiders into my 6-yo daughter’s room, to clear the booklice on the ceiling. My daughter doesn’t mind the spiders. I have taught her enough about insects and spiders that she’s n

The article says “ if file sharing doesn’t work”, but is it ok to just run this command line fix anyway? I’m not sure if file sharing is broken for me. I don’t use it right now . But I’m afraid I might run into this bug in the future when

“I like to think of blank pages as mini whiteboards.” This. I never enjoyed drawing diagrams in Inkscape, though my boss swears by it. I’d much rather draw with pens on paper and then digitise by scanning.

Some of the examples in the book violate the Zen of Python. So I wouldn't even call them pythonic or idiomatic in the first place. E.g.: `contains_zero` violates "There should be one-- and preferably only one --obvious way to do i

Just to clarify, you mean there's no (official) build for ARM/MIPS/etc, right? DragonflyBSD itself is officially supported on x86_64.

I'm afraid this won't be enough. If it doesn't hurt the shareholders' and creditors' bottom line, corporate behavior is unlikely to change. You need an event like the government banning Intel ME from their agencies,

Thanks for the quick response. How does this coincide with the 3.1.1 release though? I was still on 3.0.15 and there are new features and other fixes in 3.1.x. Do the new features and the other fixes happen to be reasonably tested and ready

What if it's just a page of math homework from Babylonian times? And not a special trig table at all? What if?

The explanation I got (from somebody else a while back) is this: DMA is only fast if it's accessed in large blocks, but memcpy is not designed to work that way. The hw accelerated jpeg decoding on the Jetson TK1 is backed by something

Performance is not the only point of consideration. There are probably features on the TX2 that are not found on the TX1, though I haven't actually looked at the difference. For instance, IIRC, the hardware accelerated jpeg decoding is

Which makes me wonder: do mycologists (mushroom scientists) get a legal license to pick mushrooms wherever the heck they want? Let's say this really is a completely new, unidentified species that only grows in this national park. Then

If you look at the filename examples, there seems to be an implicit suggestion of naming a group of related files using a common prefix. If one needs to distinguish groups of files, why not just put them in directories ? That's th

I haven't read the whole piece yet, but I find that the first question I ask myself is: if the interviewees were males, would they have been given pseudonyms? I don't have an answer to that question. It's all hypothetical. I&
