A quick look at their 10Q does not show that their Energy generation and storage business is extremely profitable. It eeks out a small profit before operating expenses. That may change in the future. It is also a small business relative to

I agree with this, although I think it was a conscious and deliberate choice with TF 2.0. We have given up on TF for all future work which is sad since I really appreciate a number of the pieces that surround the core. I think they made a c

I mean that is a pretty strong statement. It's not like it was really possible to criminally charge Tony Hayward with being at fault for a faulty blow out preventer design, even though a number of people died. In some ways we were prob

Dealing with the corrections is just another product. When I worked with IBES data, which collects all these estimates, you needed to buy a package called something like "As Was" to recreate any arbitrary point in time estimate.

In fact most of these articles neglect to point out why the tax rates are what they are or offer specific policy prescriptions. I would at least respect them if they said something like "let's get rid of the R&D tax credit.&qu

It's irrelevant. You need the CUDA SDK and the CuDNN SDK both of which have license agreements. Edit: You may also need the official Nvidia driver. I have never run anything with the OSS drivers.
