Are you concerned about the state of AMD GPUs? They couldn't compete in terms of high end performance for a long time. But nowadays they even lose the price-performance ratio of en…

No idea. I can only speak for myself. But in now 7 years I never connected a keyboard or mouse to my 2011 MBA. It's keyboard+Touchpad is just so good that I don't need it. Even whe…

I wouldn't care about the touch bar if the esc+(sleep key) were still regular hardware keys. Those are the only ones that I actually use. But an even bigger problem for me is the p…

How advanced are those student in their studies when they take this course? Their work is probably good but I can't help but think many of the reports/posters seem underwhelming. I…

I also tried it, and it didn't work for me. I asked about the error message in the swift forum and got no response... Using the prebuilt binary for ubuntu with the WSL is WAY more …

I agree, I just had in mind that Apple just now added/announced support for external GPUs. Besides Image+Video edditing, I though general computing tasks is a use case they had in …

I like both Swift and Tensorflow. But how is that going to work? As far as I understand MacOS has no official Nvidia support (=> no Cuda), which is (at least) advised if you want t…

I don't think the last sentence is fair to trensorflow. Torch has been around for ~15 years compared to the 3 of TF. You'd expect TF to catch up in terms of performance in the futu…

Another format is onnx [0], where Apple and Goodle don't seem to participate. I don't know the politics behind it but there should be a common format for all libraries/platforms. […

> A forward() function gets called when the Graph is run. Isn't that almost exactly the same in tensorflow? You'd run your model to generate an output, or/and run your optimization…

To be fair, while they are "richer than god" most of their money is either in some non-us bank to avoid taxes or invested...

Thank you

Thanks

I read this and it doesn't answer my questions

Totally of topic but could someone explain Elixirs syntax to me? In the following code (from the linked site): What is embeds_many? Are :string and :map type information or Atoms? …

What kind of problems do you have in mind?

I just hope for the one big presentation where they refresh iMac, Mac mini, Mac Pro, and maybe some "next big thing" for desktop PCs. And for the love of god, if they do this pleas…

I couldn't find information about the GPU. It's wired that it's 100€ cheaper than Microsoft's Surface Book with similar specs. I'd be interested how good the quality is. It seems w…

(m/f) stands for male or female. The reason to still state that the job is available to both genders is that the word describing the job is most often masculine.

In the webcast they said that if you can see is ISS you'll see it

I'd agree but > Judging by the (wrong) benchmark above where both C and Go seem to do some work, Go is about half as fast as C. I think this is what is most flawed in the paper. Fo…

I don't know the astrophysics domain at all but shouldn't there be more arguments for Go? * Safer than C * Almost as fast as C * Good concurrency support * High productivity due to…

You expect people to behave a certain way when you know they won't. Then you let them get to you because you don't stand to whatever you did. You expected them to compliment you. I…

What did you expect?

At the IBM event he said that the current concurrency model (gcd) might be replaced/extended by an actor/task based model in version 5.
