While that's true, I don't see how this is relevant to SIMDe? SIMDe lets you compile code using (e.g.) SSE/AVX intrinsics for ARM targets, using the target platform's SIMD intrinsics when possible. It doesn't even o

It's not as large as Chromium by far (~55k lines + ~27k lines support library), but I quite like the Thrill codebase. It's a research prototype (but not what you would typically associate with "research code") of a big d

HPC system utilization is typically upwards of 90%, these things are not idle. There's almost always a queue of jobs waiting to run, at least in my experience.

Not sure why you're downvoted, HPC systems don't last more than ~6 years before they are decommissioned because they've become too power-hungry to justify their continued use. I just checked some of the systems I'm famil

Sure, some manufacturers claim outrageous battery life numbers that noone has ever managed to achieve outside of a lab. But my 2017 X1 Carbon with a 57Wh battery does manage close to 10 hours of actual light-ish use (with Linux). Macbooks&#

Looks rather nice, but "up to 5 hours battery with real use" for the 14" model is pretty awful, to put it mildly. They should get a lot more running time from a 47Wh battery than 5h. Only one USB-C port (apparently without ch

My wireless access point (a tp-link eap245) has a single LED, and that can be turned off in the webinterface. I wish every device had such an option.

Yeah but that's like the old quote that the stock market successfully predicted nine of the past five recessions. Sometimes, in hindsight, it might have been the right thing to do. But most of the time, when you look back at what peopl

Maybe, but there’s nothing to short without a cable plugged in afaik? I don’t think the voltage lines are powered in the idle state. I’ve never had a problem at least.

A lot of the time when people have trouble with charging cables, it's caused by pocket lint in the phone's charging port, so maybe try that? I use a bent paperclip, but I'm sure there are more gentle ways.

I have the EAP245, which is 3x3 and was only slightly more expensive than the EAP225 in my country. I'm pretty happy with it and it's far better than what my ISP provided. It supports beam forming, band steering, and DFS channels.

In that example yes, but are you really telling me that I should change my views on whether it's okay for governments to hack journalists and activists to publicly smear them and arrest their sources?

I would love for me to tell you that you were joking, but this sounds just crazy enough to be probably true. A cursory search confirms that the NIC seems to have a rather active role in DASH implementations: " To support out-of-band ma

AMD's implementation of DMTF DASH is called SimFire, and Intel's is called AMT. They both implement the same standard. I don't see where else it run if not on the PSP if it works even when the machine is (supposedly) switched

Well you can apply it to any pair of (adjacent) levels of the memory hierarchy. But the main problem with the square root model is that it only models random access time, but not when they are incurred and when data is already in cache. (Th

Well the problem with that is "this is a curve that roughly fits the data" is a bad way to go about constructing a model. It's a useful and neat observation, but that doesn't make it a good model. It might model random

For priority queues, which implementation is optimal depends a lot on your workload (do you need addressability, i.e., a decreaseKey operation? What is the typical ratio of insertions to deletions? Are your keys integers?). I found some sli
