Harvard takes a lot of federal money. On the order of millions to billions of dollars.

Fedora strikes a pretty good tradeoff on the “is user friendly” and “has latest tools regardless of system version” balance, I would say.

Well, the idea is that you’d be writing low level CUDA kernels that implement operations not already implemented by JAX/CUDA and integrate them into existing projects. Numba[1] is probably the closest thing I can think of that currentl

Technically speaking, all of this exists (including the existing library integration and whatnot) through CuPy and Numba already, but the fact that it’s getting official support is cool.

> The things you do to look for a job don’t help you do the job. > If you can’t do a job you won’t get hired. I mean, these statements seem a bit contradictory though.

Oh, ok. I was confused because you said find a job, not do a job.

I don't think it's his textbook though, he's just asking people to find specific novels to have a discussion on (and the students are just using SparkNotes).

I considered this for one particularly hard to find book and it turned out it would have not cost much more to just buy the textbook compared to printing it lol

Well, the comment you replied to talks about classes where books are secondary to better sources from which to learn the material, like lecture notes and other sources.

As a college student, feel like I haven’t met any college student with “all the time in the world” as the people say we have lol. Most of my friends who graduated feel like they have more free time after graduating than in college

To be fair, belts and phones aren’t the same things. Belts are popular now because wearing them is barely an inconvenience compared to the improvement in safety - abstaining from phones is way harder for the average person.

What do you mean by that? That doesn’t really make sense

I don’t think it’s necessarily that either. They probably just want some guarantees that the app will keep working, instead of someone submitting 100s of wine apps and having them break eventually.

The modern Word suite’s basic format was introduced with Word 2010. So as long as the person who created the doc uses features that were previously present in Word 2010 they’d be fine. Features from later versions will either not show up or

iPhone added this feature very recently (just a few months ago, it basically just randomly restarts the phone if it is unused and not connected to a network for over 24-48 hours - phones connected to a network can be erased via iCloud). And

If your phone has fingerprint unlock support, there’s usually a second chip (TPM, Secure Enclave, equivalents) that is in charge of providing the phone with its encryption key when the fingerprint lock is used. Finding a vulnerability in th

That would be the amount to create a new social network that interoperates with the old one. Joining a social network only requires hosting a PDS, not a relay (basically free)

You’re conflating decentralization with financialization. Just because something is decentralized (e.g. BitTorrent, Mastodon) doesn’t mean it’ll be abused by people with money. Decentralization just means “not keeping everything in one serv

ATProto is usable without Bluesky’s AppView. You just need to create another centralized indexing server of your own and have it index all PDSs. This is certainly less decentralized than other systems since there’s a barrier to entry (getti

I feel like using units of rate (90% faster) and not units of time makes more sense here. Plus, if you were using units of time, you wouldn’t use the word “faster.” “Takes 45% less time” and “45% faster” are very different assertions, but t

Bluesky consists of PDSs and a central indexing server. Bluesky themselves can say that their indexing server won't accept backdated posts, thus making all posts on the Bluesky app itself have valid dates, but others would then be able

Yeah, a more likely exploit would be it starting to listen for other wake words (different from the original one) and then recording whenever those words are said. Still would be a massive conspiracy lol

They’re referring to the binary release, in this case. You can compile Firefox from source at any time (but if you distribute it, you’re not allowed to call it Firefox due to trademark restrictions) Open source does technically allow you to
