Well technically, the starting points were always other elements like bismuth, and not lead. I believe the authors checked, and noted that in the paper: https://journals.aps.org/pr…

I wonder what makes you say this? In my (limited) anecdotal experience, I've noticed that Austrians seem to have far higher levels of English competency than Germans, for example.

There's a song about this: 'When The War Came' by The Decemberists https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJHOiQ2uniU

For anyone who's wondering, you can see your current kernel config in a file like /boot/config or /proc/config.gz

Can I also interpret this as: 'AMD's pytorch support is so abysmal that inference is 10x slower than it should be'?

Not quite: half are on the left, and half are on the right of the vertical line; and half are on the bottom and half on the top of the horizontal line.

It's also wrong: SO(n) matrices have determinant +1.

Unfortunately, despite panels and batteries getting cheaper every year, not every rural household has the financial means to access these solutions. I'm really excited about initia…

The only way to avoid falling under the provisions of the act is to not have any customers in the EU -- that's quite a big market to cut yourself out of, and definitely something a…

My whole workflow of organizing and reading papers is centered on PDFs. While I like having interactive supplemental materials, I want to be able to print, save and annotate the pa…

Has anyone here found a link to the actual paper? If I click on 'paper', I only see what seems to be an awkward HTML version.

The Taiwanese scooter company Gogoro recently announced something similar: Their scooters come with swappable batteries that you rent. The swapping station they have throughout the…

The article links to an old draft of the paper (it seems that the results in 4.1 couldn't be replicated). The arxiv has a more recent one: https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.13345

I disagree; I think a system like Wikipedia shows that a textual and visual format like markdown provides the flexibility to convey pretty much any information. For any formal and …

It's a popular science talk, not a presentation of a specific research result. The re-interpretation of scattering amplitudes in terms of novel mathematical structures is almost it…

I don't exactly know what you mean, but at least most points in the blog post were covered in my undergrad numerics courses.

I'm not sure if this will actually be an HSR stop, but it would be super convenient for someone living in e.g. Fresno: Instead of having to use a connector flight to SFO, you can j…

That would only help you if they claim to be US-based in the first place. They do mention background checks, there are some companies offering those internationally.

This is pretty obvious, no? If you choose a (uniformly) random point inside an n-sphere, the components of the vector will go to zero as n gets larger -- after all, the sum of thei…

Milpitas really is not walkable, although you can somewhat decently navigate it with a bike. Walkability mostly is a function of density, which you can just glean by eye from a sat…

Sounds the same if you have a lisp.

I just tried replicating the same experiment using Jax's numpy API, and einsum is still slower, but at least the same order of magnitude: %timeit (x_jax @ y_jax).block_until_ready(…

If I understand https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/v1.22.0/numpy/core/einsu... and https://github.com/numpy/numpy/blob/v1.22.0/numpy/core/src/m... correctly, using einsum without …

I'd really like to use einsum more often, because it allows me to code my expressions the same way I derive them on pen and paper. Unfortunately, as mentioned in the article, it's …

No carrier should be able to brick a phone without it being locked to the network. I did some research online, and it seems that the culprit here is actually Best Buy (and Apple) f…
