I could only find a (legal) pdf[1] for $80. Pretty steep price when I'd probably only want to read 2-3 chapters. [1]: Swedish site: https://www.bokus.com/bok/9781009418133/linear-a…

Two months in and I'm a happy Beelink customer too. My kids mostly use it for Minecraft.

I skimmed your post and I wonder if mojo is focusing on such small 512x512 matrices? What is your thinking on generalizing your results for larger matrices?

That would be cool. Otherwise, sweepers will need both extra robust tires and to be ready change flats.

Some boards have decent support. I've got an odroid C1 released in 2015 and I saw there is at least an Ubuntu 20 image for it!

Thanks, this brought back some memories. I did an internship / co-op in software engineering at that site in Rochester while a student. They needed extra help so I worked a few eve…

I don't know what your new sources are. The rates of death and infection vary a lot between regions in Sweden so any significant herd immunity is probably regional.
