"There is no point in research, because I do not see anything useful being mass-produced immediately after". It's like saying Gaussian elimination is wasteful because it is just doing some cool magic with numbers that don&#x2

The important point here is that data collection and telemetry is worthless and was never about improving the experience for you as a user. The coders behind the update nag had every opportunity to do a hardware check, but as I say, big dat

How did you tweak and fix it? I suffer with Windows 11 at work and everything is just so slow. Alt+Tab often gets stuck and clicking icons on the taskbar don't register about a fifth of the time. Take a screenshot with Shift+Win+S? Tha

This reply looks like classic and corteous AI when contradicted, and proves it haven't read nor understood the references, which clearly indicate how to achieve O(1) for min, max and median, even with greater dynamic range than 8-bit,

I think you are right. Looking at the source code of the page there are the usual tell-tale signs of AI written code with overtly explaining comments, such as:   <

I thought the point of a sliding window, especially a fixed one, is to add the next element and subtract the oldest one from a running sum, to achieve O(1) running time except the start cost. This is what an efficient constant-time median f

Historically the .NET and XNA vector types have been seriously lacking for real graphics development, and they still don't even provide swizzling. It's likely that this project predates .NET numerics by many years, and anyone who
