I have attended some cool interviews for niche openings in business and academia, where there were one or two stages only, no LeetCode, and no other strings attached. These were all EU-based or remote. Basically, I had to discuss some my pr

They run a bit hot and a bit slow, but it's great that Lenovo is keeping an eye on Snapdragon. Hopefully, the new chip will address those limitations. Right now, AMD ThinkPads are better. They are fast, run cool, and have pretty long b

You can get huge performance benefits, where performance may also imply stability or convergence. For example, recently I had to make a parametric fit of a large dataset to an exotic distribution. Hand-tuning maximum likelihood and roundi

This is a bit surprising for a Linux-oriented range such as XPS. I haven't had any broken devices due to an update in more than a decade, despite always using the latest kernel. But I try to avoid buying any machines that require drive

Aside from Dell, ThinkPad, Framework, and StarLabs are great premium laptops that can be bought with Linux and have good well-supported hardware. What is the best premium option? I gravitate towards a AMD Ryzen ThinkPad, either a X13 or a T

ThinkPads, at least in EU, offer the option of no OS or Linux. And the discount is €60 if you opt out of any OS and €30 if you choose Fedora or Ubuntu instead of Windows Home. With a little subsidy, Dell's pricing you report doesn&#x27

It's good keeping in mind the ThinkPad X13s was released with a Snapdragon as a way to prepare for Snapdragon X. Performance was not good, and the CPU was a bit hot (but fanless). Linux support was imperfect, but for a first attempt it

I also regret giving them my data. At work, we bought one of their first kits. We were doing genetics research and my boss got some for Christmas and gifted them to everyone in the group. Technically, 23andme is also pretty bad, which is ha

In my case, we did. But I know the space well, as I work in immunology. Plus, I was frustrated because our local hospital offerings were far from the state of the art. In case of a metastasis, even more so, as adverse events are less of a c

I don't think this is feasible if its only a EU-wide regulation. It is hard to prevent me or any regular user from downloading and running software. Are they going to block Git forges and repositories? They won't be able to see wh

It is very concerning. However, can they enforce this? How will they prevent me from e.g. connecting to a XMPP or a Signal server hidden behind Tor? IMHO, they will only be able to spy on regular citizens. Obviously, this is not a reason no

IMHO, the discussion should not be so much whether to teach Bayesian or maximum likelihood. But instead, whether to teach generative models or to keep going with hypothesis tests, which are generally presented to students as a bag of tricks

I don't know how this works now, but in the past it was a problematic option. For example, if you used sudo and TRAMP to do some local administration tasks, it would store those files in your own account. This was a security issue.

The explanation you got above is sound but slightly misleading. Let me explain. Typical neurons in a neural network are actually simpler that a quadratic equation. They are actually a linear function y = ax + b, where a and b are vectors. S

From what I have seen in other reviews, Framework laptops seem great but the fan is a tad too noisy. Any real experience with that? AMD ThinkPads are surprisingly quiet.

I disagree. Lots of communities, e.g. Julia or Stan, use https://www.discourse.org . Discourse is GPL2 and emulates old Internet forums.

What could work well is forcing manufacturers to release hardware documentation that is sufficiently detailed to allow developing drivers without reverse engineering. Perhaps forcing them to do so a couple of years after hardware release, s
