I've recently gone through the eGPU enclosure drama after reading an article linked here. I'm using one of the 2019 refreshes of a MacBook Pro, with a Radeon Pro Vega 20. I bought a Radeon RX 5700 XT at launch this week, paired wi

I don't think it's that big of a reach! I agree that it might be a bit unnecessary in this context, but in math classes it was always enormously valuable to have more examples than fewer ones. The pattern would become easier to id

Mobile GPUs perform absolutely miserably; no surprise given the design constraints. Using your link as a comparison, its nearest neighbors are top-of-the-line parts from nine years ago, and budget parts from four years ago.

I don't think it's speed enforcement in most cases. It's usually people not wanting to deal with changing lanes to deal with the slowest traffic. For a while I would come up across a large number of vehicles inexplicably stac

You could pull it off by buying a Civic Type-R, which I think fits the theme.

For someone with no experience with SF and just looking at a map: a huge amount of the East Bay is closer time-wise to the busiest weekday BART station, Montgomery, than the western part of SF. Even in the Sunset and the Richmond, 1 bedroom

Who's running model training 24/7 to justify reserving this instance or co-locating your own hardware? (Apologies in advance for not being very imaginative) Their ImageNet timing fits within the bounds of a Spot Duration workload,

Parallels is great. I like it so much that I bought the subscription, and I don't even use my Windows VM all that much. However, sadly, third-party software that spins up VMs tends to avoid supporting Parallels. I recall Vagrant having

Are you trying to solve the problems caused by an insufficiently sized ops group? The other posts in this sub-thread imply devs are going to make a destructive mess of your whole system architecture, but I find myself blocked on more mundan

1 cyclist was killed by a criminal driving recklessly beyond speed limit on JFK, and was near a T-shaped intersection and was riding in the parking/shoulder lane. 1 cyclist was killed in a SOMA intersection by a DUI operator through no

The law as written means you have to yield on a bicycle in exactly the same way you would a car. There’s no room for China-level tolerances, as you describe. People may also be picturing different scenarios: NYC couriers and delivery people

Oddly, this is a cyclist behavior that is very widely admonished as being pedestrian-hostile.

Ahh, ok, I didn't understand that part from your post. I haven't used Java on Windows in a long time! Looking at an example of a library that does native binding: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/com.github.

Plus, you can strip down the Java bytecode even further using ProGuard, but convincing it to not delete code that's actually used is an error-prone dark art.

Take a quick look at Google Maps and you'll see I-15 is a very short distance away. It's not like they decided to go full San Francisco and run major six-lane highway routes at surface level. The people using this sort of route ar

Gotcha. Just some confusion around what you meant by in-memory OLAP engine. It seems that many storage format libraries get integrated into other platforms that bring the other supporting features (and the other undesirable heavyweight thin

I would try Apache Spark. It's fairly easy to get it running locally, and does not require Hadoop. It provides the query engine.

This is a good article with sensible rationale for raising the speed limit on freeways. It starts to touch on why local safety advocacy groups push for lower speed limits, but it only really addresses speed in the context of other motorized

That is definitely a quote that only applies to racing. I agree that better fitness absolutely does make the easy stuff easier. But if you want to make going fast feel easy, you can't escape training for it.

I can see why you'd want to keep it non-Java and simple. I will admit that I am biased since I work with Spark all day, but I think you'll eventually want to write a query where you wish you had Spark SQL or could manipulate it as
