Do you have any references to support this? What you and the person you responded to said both seem reasonable to some extent, but without evidence It's not clear to what extent they are true. Relatedly, does "stress" have th

Ok, I tried it (for as long as my limited free time and interest in CUDA allows). The closest I came to a getting started guide is this [0], which by my (perhaps naive count) is 25561 lines of documentation, and I would probably need to lea

As other commenters have noted, large universities are quite heterogeneous and their administrations are fairly decoupled from their research activity, except in a big-picture sense. The timing is basically irrelevant because you might as w

Sure, but if you've never used CUDA or any other GPU framework, how many lines of documentation do you need to read, and how many lines of code are you likely to write and rewrite and delete before you end up with those <100 lines o

It could largely be sampling bias. The people who care about speed talk about going faster, while the people who don't care about speed don't talk about it, rather than talking about not caring about it. (Edit: typo)

Ahh. In that case, this [1] is my (browser-specific) solution. The results are not always great, but they're generally not bad. [1]: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30628457

If you mean that KiCad needs dark mode, this can be done using a combination of GTK (or QT?) color themes, which are associated with your system configuration, not KiCad, and color themes for the editing tools, which can be changed in the p

In addition to the other recommendations in the thread, it may be useful to learn how the whole process works (KiCad, ordering or making PCBs, and assembling everything) with an even simpler circuit with just a few components. Making a simp

It looks like power plants are also a significant source of nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere, though I don't know what the major/top sources are. From the US EPA [1]: NO2 primarily gets in the air from the burning of fuel. NO

I am by no means an expert, but as far as I understand NO2 pollution is mainly generated by internal compustion engines (especially diesel?), so I don't understand why there would be a causal link to A/C use. I can imagine various

To provide some rough intuition, I might point out that in order for a material to become superconducting, there must be some interaction in the material that allows the electrons to form Cooper pairs, and these interactions are more likely

The superconducting transition temperature (Tc) of many superconducting materials increases as the pressure applied to the material is increased, so I guess the idea is to make the ambient pressure high enough that Tc is below the ambient t

I was hoping for some actual data. As I mentioned there's plenty of anecdata online, but I don't know if anyone has really studied this. The article you linked to suggests that nobody has done a systematic study. As a counterpoint

Out of curiosity, do you have any sources with actual evidence that carbon fiber is prone to catastrophic failure in bike frames/components, particularly compared to aluminum? From my (rather limited) research, there seems to be plenty
