I don't know about many . I don't know of any retail investors that do, and if I did I would have guessed that they'd be buying when prices drop, not selling.

Out of curiosity, homeowners, would you recommend it for someone young who hasn't settled down yet, assuming you could pay off the mortgage fairly quickly? Is there a lot of hassle in renting out an apartment using a broker, is hiring

I appreciate that one of the headline features is accessibility. I'm always worried that something I build won't be accessible and people will silently not use it.

Does anyone know the prices that Arm charges for its licenses are set? They occupy such a strangely powerful position in the global chip landscape. Similarly, how does TSMC set their prices? There don't seem to be any real alternatives

Does anyone have a preference between the various static typecheckers for Python? I.e. pytype, pyright, mypy, pyre? Ideally something that handles Numpy sensibly, is well documented, and doesn't require inline annotations (i.e. can use

I think it's still wild that neither Tensorflow nor PyTorch work on Apple's MBP GPUs - AMD can't run ROCm on anything but Linux, and NVIDIA drivers aren't supported if you wanted to get an external GPU.

I did the same thing. Food is amazing. I was eating my own food (not terrible!) and takeout for months in NYC before coming back home a few weeks ago. Also, I have 3x as much living space, tons of open green space to run in, and people to t

It's not about evidence, per se, but about normalization. People from all walks of life might find a need for it in HK, and it's easier to convince someone to download an app they haven't heard of if it's called "Me

Actually, it is quite a bit faster. I'm impressed, thanks.

Can we talk about how slow it is? Literally the main reason I don't use this app (which seems so good for my use cases) is that it takes forever to start up on my phone. I can use it on my desktop but only because it's a fast mach

Nothing has beaten having a local Hugo server running (with a theme that has Katex and syntax highlighting). Note taking can be like blogging to yourself, and the flat markdown means it's easy to edit and search. I don't have the

I think she asked us to call her by her first name at the beginning of the semester and it stuck (but I can't remember and I might be being rude). Honestly I'm as surprised as you are - mulling it over I'm sure I called her P

I took a class senior year with Cynthia which tried to cover some of the things that she had discovered. One of most surprising things about her work is that she brings this full algorithmic firepower to problems that I had always considere

Honestly, this looks terrible. Even though Windows hardware has gotten much better over the years, and Windows 10 is a much nicer OS, you can tell that the developers in their UI frameworks don't sweat the small details. All of the scr

Pretty much every neural network framework is aggressively SIMD-optimized (after all, that's kind of the point besides autodiff), not sure why Tencent's framework is picked.. If you know about it, I want to hear about more fast SI

As a small note, no one I know calls this book "PRML". I've always heard it referred to as "Bishop" (using the usual custom of referring to an textbook author's best known work by their last name).

Yes, please. I was confused when I first read this - I thought "why would I want to use a tool based on outdated syntax?". Maybe "PEP 316-inspired syntax"?

Many people feel that burdening their friends with their problems isn't easy. This is more complicated than it seems - even if you're ok venting a few times to your friend, could you do it every week for a year? Also, is your frie

The Palouse is really beautiful, but honestly I felt like I'd kind of grown past Pullman by the time I finished high school - you can only go bowling at Zeppoz so many times :)

I was a Running Start alum as well (along with many of my friends). If you're in Pullman, you can take courses at Washington State University. It was incredible for me - for my friends who went to UW or WSU after graduation, they got 2

I mostly agree with you that lying is generally considered speech (and I wouldn't want the government to necessarily censor in the way Facebook is doing here) but lying that causes panic is not considered speech: https://en.

How long have consoles used almost exclusively AMD hardware? It seems like Xbox One/PS4 were the first generation this was true, is there any lock-in in this market? How many consoles are sold vs. desktops and laptops?
