I have the opposite experience. With the HP docking station, we were unable to drive a 4k monitor using windows. On linux thisnjust worked.

Going outside for lunch is a great idea.

Here's an article from 2002 talking about how we could just have data-based sizing: https://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/15/magazine/the-year-in-idea...

I am cleaning up some pointer arithmetic stuff for multi-dimensional C style arrays. I managed to replace the code with a std::inner_product minus a std::accumulate (to accomodate …

What is the bioinformatic application? Could you point me towards some programs that use this?

Because they have so many car chases on the news. So people get the idea that car chases are a solution that people use to get out of trouble. Seems like a vicious cycle, fed by th…

That is really more of a switch from CUDA to HIP; for most HPC applications, cpu speed isn't the question any more.

I write code and also cycle. I built a bike shed in my back yard. It has become quite difficult to search for advice on how to actually build a bike shed.

Or just not have pardons at all.

For those complaining about the news sites being sensationalist, why not just read Reuters? You will miss out on local news, but it's pretty reliable for international news.

Speed enforcement has been extensively studied, and there are a lot of publicly available articles on the subject. The results are basically universally in favour of speed enforcem…

I am not familiar with poaching issues in the USA, but in Canada, one isn't allowed to hunt too close to roads; doing otherwise is poaching. It seems reasonable to not discharge fi…

Differences in speed matter, but so does absolute speed. "Inappropriate speed is responsible for 20 to 30% of all fatal road crashes." from https://www.itf-oecd.org/speed-crash-ris…

Here is the support list: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/projects/install-on-linux/en/lates...

In terms of sheer game-theoretic value, sure, perfect knowledge will reduce value gaps. However, the thing with having your house insured is that you will have somewhere to live if…

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_fluoridation_by_countr... It seems that one or two European countries ban fluoridation; however few practice it. But "Europe banned this" is s…

Does it work with android auto?

Thankfully, I have been able to keept the car in the garage and ride at -30. Passed a lot of cars needing a boost though.

I used the 3m filter mask biking in the wildfire smoke a while ago. There is a blowout hole, which makes it much easier to get stale air out. The sport-specifc one from MEC made it…

> Modern life on the other hand often starts the day with an utterly toxic commute. Yet another reason to bicycle (and to have good bike infrastructure!)

Could you explain how you use a shmoo plot for optimization? Do you just have a performance metric at each point in parameter space?

This is definitely arm-chair quarter-backing, but wouldn't ground effect allow for a lower stall-speed?

Sometimes pointer arithmetic is the best implementation; are you implying that C++ would be better off without access to this feature?

It seems like it would mess up traffic more? I have heard that Waze sends drivers through residential areas as shortcuts, which, you know, kills kids.

The summers are when research happens - this is not a holiday. Sabbaticals are also for research. "Pet projects" is actually just research. Did I mention research? There's also gra…
