I've never had any trouble publishing in a more conversational style and have read plenty of papers that do the same. Of course, this varies by field and venue and format (journal …

This is not a good comparison. All the students at Harvard are all selected from the tail end of the distribution and are very capable. The students at Scandinavian universities ar…

I have like 20 brands of foam earplugs in my drawer, 5 different pairs of custom silicone airplugs, unusual earplugs from Kickstarter like [1], and so on. What I'm saying is I know…

They aren't that rare. And AI is expanding the niche because making parallel linear algebra go zoom zoom is compiler work. There's also a lot of quantum compiler work.

I also did exactly this and do not receive any spam calls anymore.

Professionalism is not a virtue; measured irreverence is---an uncensored "Fuck" in this scenario falls into that category. Silliness has an important and necessary place in researc…

Good; censoring profanity (especially self-censoring) is for cowards. Be brave and dish out your fucks liberally in your papers!

Futhark, SaC, and Accelerate have purely functional semantics. Futhark has something called "in-place updates" that operationally mutate the given array, but semantically they work…
