So not to pour more anecdotal fuel on the fire, so to speak, but I know of someone who had a confirmed case of COVID last spring in the US, then was tested for antibodies this spring and had few, and then caught it again in India a few week

Apple will keep innovating; for a long period there their A-series chips were more than an iteration ahead of the comparable Snapdragon, but they never slowed down. I'm sure they'll increase the graphics performance and make NVIDI

It’s not as instant as the commentator makes it out to be, or as decisive. You have weights of X and they have weights of Y. The capacity for the algorithm is $2mm of risk but you can only deploy 200k right now because your fund is smaller,

I doubt you can compare the American economy of 1850 to that of today... the reason we needed lower taxes before 1920 is because we had a fairly underdeveloped economy. You’re right that it’s best to present the full history, but then you a

I think you are getting downvoted because you're mixing up terms. Ryzen is a CPU architecture brand (which all the deep learning libraries can use). You're wondering if CUDA-accelerated PyTorch (if there's an NVIDIA card) or

Or, you know, we could apply a decade of research on market design to design an optimal outcome given user preference lists? Economists have long studied the concept of "gaming-free" mechanisms, i.e. your optimal outcome is only a

This conflates too many issues; people dislike police unions because they are a powerful lobbying force against police reform. They prevent innovations like liability insurance [0] from gaining any traction. And no, I at least personally th

Does Spotlight search even index contents? I didn't think that happened, but maybe I'm wrong?

I replied upthread, but I made a mistake reading https://docs.github.com/en/github/working-with-github-pages/... when revisiting what I remembered, and I was just looking at it from the perspective of private

I think we've both said correct things, but I think you've missed my meaning: yes, I understand that Github Pages is static hosting, I was point out that by default the build system uses Jekyll. This is nonobvious. This is in the

I should warn that bike shedding about this distinction is absolutely not worth your time if you’re reading this and have less than like 100 blog posts written or are running a business on these sites (in which case I think you should pick

I've tried Github pages, Netlify, and Cloudflare Pages. Moved last night to the latter. Github pages is fine, but the extra gh-pages branch is kind of annoying. It's fairly clear (for obvious reasons) that they mainly think about

Ah sorry, I know that. I meant the 2020 Godel prize awarded to Moser and Tardos. Just noting the connection.

Lovasz is most well known to me for the Lovasz local lemma. Very cool to find out that this year’s Godel prize was given for an algorithmic construction for that.

I use it a few ways, and I can be specific: - I will create a folder for a topic with multiple ideas (e.g. transformers), and then put inside it a few separate files. One might contain a link to a paper or blog post and then my notes from r

For those searching, DeepSpeed is implemented as a set of C++/CUDA extensions on top of PyTorch (compiled using their JIT).

Well, that's the "magic" of modern deep learning. You can fit models with p > n somehow without overfitting. In some areas you might find this called "the strong inductive bias of neural networks" or "double

The advice to read Practical Typography is good, but ironically not super practical. It would be a lot of time invested for a small practical benefit in this narrow situation. Personally, I think you could increase the contrast between text

Not to argue that this is a good thing, but to expand: the UX of having your ad purchaser decide how best to target a demographic is really bad, so Google abstracted it away. For example, you might not know that only homeowners in Minnesota

I'm fine with brutalist web design, what I can't stand is low font-weights and small font sizes, like assuming all of your readers are on a 4K screen with the eyes of a 20 year old. On a more substantive note, this looks really ne

iirc this is because ROCm works via a modified Linux kernel. Why they had to do that, I have no idea.
