My school requires a financial commitment by mid-August so unfortunately, I'm not able to apply without taking a risk. Something to consider if you continue with the program.

I don't know how practical that is; FPGAs are very efficient, but they won't come close to the raw computational power of a GPU. Many moons ago, the dream was to have a configurable FPGA in every computer, but GPUs ended up winnin

Agreed. StarCraft is not as hard as people make it out to be. The path to Masters is pretty straightforward and achievable in under 3 hours a day. You just need to be smart about how you practice.

That Circadia device looks way too large to be comfortable. With some more engineering, it could have been made much smaller. Also, in the removal picture the battery seems to be bulging rather dangerously.. Battery maintenance and safety i

That's what I used in high school, but they're not very good value. You'd often need to pay a few bucks in fees just to use a $20 prepaid Visa card.

When will I be able to do anything similar? I enjoy using Cardiogram but there doesn't seem to be any good way to export or view my data outside the app, unless I missed it. Additionally, I can't store or view any data unless I&#x

I've been using an ErgoDox for 5 months and I regularly switch between it and a laptop. Switching isn't too bad, especially since I have ctrl bound to the caps lock key on both.

I think you need to look at it holistically and place yourself in the shoes of your audience. I imagine an example of a "rational" purchase to be something like searching for a good (eg. headphones) on Amazon and comparing prices

A good programmer that writes less lines of code is more efficient than a bad programmer that writes more to do the same work, because you pay each per line of code. A library that allows both to write less lines of code will increase effic

It makes sense to talk about lines of code when thinking about engineering hour efficiency. It costs the same amount for a programmer to write one line of C as one line of Assembly, and the rate of bugs tracks lines of code as well. The und

The benefits that companies provide to salaried employees (healthcare, etc.) end up being more than 40% of the pay they actually see anyways. So in the end, the pay is comparable.
