That's how TCP works. TCP initially starts with a small transmission buffer (the congestion window), and gradually increases its size until it starts getting errors (packet drops or reordering).

Musk took over Tesla a few months after the Model S got announced. By that time, one could expect that most of the development teams and roadmaps were well in place.

I fail to understand how these could have been the results of vested interests from existing structures, and not Musk's questionable behavior: - insulting a kid saving cave-diver a pedo; - getting into a buying agreement with Twitter&#

There have been a lot of CEOs that took control of a 2nd company in a totally different field, but have never been so catastrophic. Musk's takeover of Twitter is a total anomaly.

Could you anyone explain how the same person that founded SpaceX could be so bad at managing Twitter? I mean, he is so bad that a child you'd have managed it better. On the other side, SpaceX is a pretty well managed company, a market

I'm using a Nvidia Jetson Nano. It's basically like a Raspberry Pi, but with a beefier GPU. It's not extremely fast, but is decent as a web and file server. TDP is extremely low, 3W idle, 8W top.

Related question, what is the best way to handle kernel compatibility for CUDA, OpenCL, etc ... ? I had to write a cross-platform kernel a few weeks ago, and I ended using pre-processor guards to make it work with the OpenCL and CUDA compil

It's pretty common to define "higher-order" functions in functional programming. These will sometimes be applied to code blocks. For example, Python's with statement could have been entirely programmed as a library fu

Sadly, Python is a pretty poor functional language. The core of functional programming is about avoiding mutable states , not much about anonymous functions or passing functions as data. To do proper functional programming in Python, there

Unless you can prove them wrong, the parent's is still right: these child labor laws have been revoked to benefit a minority's financial interests.

Strange, I personally find it very enjoyable on the switch. Could be better obviously but I really like the art style and the gameplay is way more fluid than almost any other AAA games running at 60FPS on my PC.

Still pretty expensive IMO. I'm building a GPU accelerated signal processing web-app, and I'm currently planning to deploy it on a $180 Nvidia Jetson. Performances are a little bit low, but mostly enough to make the app usable. I

Ask your employer to work Part-Time (e.g. 3 or 4d/w). That will free a lot of time to prototype and experiment with your SaaS, while keeping a stable income stream. You'll basically an infinite runway to launch your product. CV-wi

This could be applied to (some of ?) the tech companies as well. Meta valuation is strongly associated with the network effect of its apps. The value of the actual assets (technologies, data-centers ...) is far lower than the market cap. Cr

Luckily for us, petrol will get harder to extract in the next decades, and thus more expensive.

Interestingly, blade waste, when put in comparison to the size of the population, is pretty negligible. As per the article, the EU will discard about 650k tons of blades between 2044 and 2049, or 130k tons per year. That's less than 30

Well, my bike is insured, and I bought a recently released angle grinder-resistant lock [1]. My workspace is also fairly well located so that also helps. [1] https://eu.litelok.com/products/litelok-x1

Somewhat unrelated to the article, but I live in a mid-size EU city and dumped my car for an e-bike a few months ago. Surprisingly, it hasn't been that hard (my GF kept her car, and I have a car-sharing subscription): Pros: - Immediate

This is part of why the bank appealed to funders and startups. These positions are just marketing to better reach their target customer base, as far as I see them.
