It’s a mobile platform, so saving 100 w on the CPU would make a difference. That’s the answer I tell myself, the real answer is because it would look hilarious :D

What’s the bottleneck? Once I’ve got the model and data onto the GPU my only cost is launching CUDA kernels right? Not sure if that blog post is relevant, but even if it is it show…

Any whiteboard products? Collaborative drawing would make remote work lovely.

I find it really interested to hear this sort of thing - how two people experiencing the same thing have completely different views. For context, I moved to near San Jose from Camb…

The law is more predictable when it follows precedent, which is good since people know what it is. Precedent can be overturned in cases where the facts are different (including whe…
