What's the alternative? I think it's the right call since there isn't much competition in GPU industry anyway. Sure, Intel is far behind. But they need to start somewhere in order to break ground. Strictly speaking strategica

Same. For me it was 15 years ago, but was with Prof. Brian Harvey in Pimentel hall with the rotating stage. Nice memories. I fell in love with scheme eventually as it was such a simple syntax. Getting used to parentheses did take some time

This was a nice short read. A simple (temporary) solution, yet a clever one. How was he managing the instances? Was he using kubernetes, or did he write some script to manage the auto terminating of the instances? It would also be nice to k

How long before a textbook with C23 update is published? I am asking because I am in the market for purchasing a book on the C programming language. I am an experienced software engineer, but with experience in Java, Python, JS and other fe

chatgpt has that shortcut too. option + space for mac, and alt + space for windows.

What I have noticed companies do is resume emails after a year or so. They probably think people would forget about unsubscribing them after a year, and for the most part they are right. If I catch any of these email lists not respecting my

I feel like this is exactly what the title is conveying. What’s misleading about it?

as I was reading the article I was thinking "Oh, you mean labeling your goals differently will cause you to think about them differently and hence, will cause you to plan differently". That is, there would be something tangible

I loved my fitbit zip a lot!! Unfortunately, the smartwatch trend took over fitbits too and all of them are now just smart watch types. The thing is I am a vintage watch enthusiast and I only wear vintage mechanical watches. Thus, leaving n

Judging from the initial topics listed "sequences and series, functions and continuity", it seems like this will be a beginning real analysis course. Fourier analysis usually comes after we have covered differentiation, integratio

PNNs resemble neural networks, however at least part of the system is analog rather than digital, meaning that part or all the input/output data is encoded continuously in a physical parameter, and the weights can also be physical, wi

This one really stuck for me: "focus on something special, then expand from there". I have time and again fell victim to fulfill all the prerequisites before I begin to attempt to understand a topic. This is a mistake I have made

Can it be used for medical products such as syringes and vials? Is research being done there? I had a close relative admitted in hospital for 2 weeks and I saw them use and throw so much plastic like I have never seen before; think 100 gall

Just an anecdote. I took CS61A by Brian Harvey in 2009. I loved the course and I actually spent very little time learning the syntax and most of the time learning the concepts. So I fully agree with Prof. Brian Harvey here.

Yes, that's at least part of it. I work for the government and we pay huge amount of fees to licensed software which can be completely replaced with open source ones. We aren't using most of the features we pay for. And, we don&#x

What do you mean?

Good point. And agree that it’s insufficient. We must understand the why behind it and also learn how to create a supportive environment. For instance, remove all the bad food from sight and replace with good ones. Put on shoes and active w

I took this course a few years ago. While I appreciated the theory behind it, they left the implementation up to the listeners and I couldn’t bridge the gap. So it wasn’t very helpful to me. Edit: by implementation I mean, translating the a

Are you implying usage of paper is saddening? I don't think we'll ever get rid of that but I am sure we can achieve sustainability with paper usage.

I think it's both. To counter the dark patterns, I now use privacy.com. It's far easier to just cancel a virtual credit card.

by ksd482 3y ago
Yes, exactly. I am myself guilty of exactly that. My excuse (a really lame one): logging in to my credit card accounts is too much of a friction with 2FA and all that, and then sifting through statements is work. I don't want to do the

You can go to B&N press and publish your own book for your personal use: https://press.barnesandnoble.com Of course, you'd have to do some legwork of accumulating all these articles in a single PDF, and sizing the PDF a

What's a good alternative for virtual CC's?

by ksd482 3y ago
You can go to privacy.com and create an account. You then link your real credit cards or bank accounts for payment source. Privacy.com also has a browser extension and a mobile app. So it's easy to create/manage virtual credit car

Ransomware attacks will become next to impossible because the data will be stored in quartz glass by "...permanently changing their physical structure". So this means that the data is written permanently and cannot be modified, an

IT also failed to put enough checks here. The article states that the employee still had a valid company account that he could use to access the repos. The access should have been cut off right away.

That's not the point. Whether or not it was in the bylaws, this would have been the sensible thing to do.
