Amsterdam manages to have intersections with cars, trams, bicycles, and pedestrians signaled separately and it’s working out pretty well!

First paragraph of the article: "As many have said GPUs are so fast because they are so efficient for matrix multiplication and convolution, but nobody gave a real explanation for why this is so. The real reason for this is memory band

Sorry but please don't take Eigen ( https://eigen.tuxfamily.org ) away from me. Can't speak for others, but the scientific code I work on would become unreadable like that.

I think we can all agree that maximizing profit is a cause, while also acknowledging that the situation is not ideal. There are many solutions to this self-imposed problem, like standardizing the battery interfaces. I agree most company&#x2

I don't think looking at hacker news as a hive mind is a good idea tbh. I'm on the side of those unionizing. Work conditions don't need to be unsafe for folks to unionize, and I'm fairly confident in saying that the vast

Unfortunately, the thread affinity api on m1 doesn't work that way, at least based on what I've been able to understand by reading here: https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/703361 and more specific

On the whole it's been good. I work on scientific software, so the biggest technical issue I face day-to-day is that OpenMP based threading seems almost fundamentally incompatible with M1. https://developer.apple.com/fo

America's history has a continuous component of oppression. At no point since the founding of the country have all folk present on this land been equal and free. Pretending that past (and current) atrocities didn't happen, and ign
