The scaling curve is different from the other cpus which implies the performance bottleneck is not in matrix multiplication (which would be nearly linear on the older cpus because it is embarrassingly parallel).
To be fair, in the past when going from DVI, Display Port, VGA, HDMI, etc. to other standards, you could just buy a simple cable. Video card manufacturers would even provide convertors in the box. So it makes sense that people may have expectations for simplicity based on their prior experiences.
Well, you only feel in the present, so he did feel things even though he may not have been who he used to be. We all are shifting and changing anyway, and our memories give us a sense of coherency, but the present is who we are most readily.
And, it can be terrifying to not know where you are or who you are for some people in those moments. So maybe he found some comfort in those moments with that one sister. That's how I think about it.
Yeah, the person who thinks a mistake is "you aren't writing the code my way" in itself is an ego trap. A lot of programmers get trapped in their viewpoint and think everyone should write code like them because it would make more sense to them if everyone did, when it isn't objectively better.
Symbols are relative, though. A good example is order of operations can easily change the meaning of an equation. But I could just define + as add 15 as well.
The person probably is doing more work than they claim.
Is it that easy to spot people? I always felt like the baseline for work at my jobs was 2-3 hours a day of productivity + 5 hours of screwing around for most people.
There were always the outliers who seemed 2X-3X productive. Anyway, you would be still doing double the work of the lazy people.
It seems to me, self-help is mostly just people spouting ideas with little scientific backing anyway. People get caught up in famous person X wrote this book. It seems like sometimes the person is actually knowledgeable like Jordan Peterson given their credentials for instance, but then they just draw conclusions that don't follow, make logical leaps, write platitudes, state common sense, etc.
Also it requires a lot of conscious effort to change the patterns that make up yourself. The first step is to learn that skill. It seems like that is where everyone mostly fails.
Ironically, I could write a self-help book/blog using these observations and present myself as an authority, but I realize these are just my opinions.
I was under the impression the Strassen method was rarely used because it has a number of drawbacks such as harder to parallelize, uses more memory, has bigger constants for complexity, less stable, etc.
It's not really designed to be optimal for the current hardware, but just to lower the number of steps. It could be more useful in the future though.
"There are no major comprehensive, longitudinal studies on Americans’ attitudes toward conspiracy theories, mostly because it was not rigorously measured until about 10 to 20 years ago."
"...reviewed over 120 years of letters to the editor, from 1890 to 2010, for both The New York Times and the Chicago Tribune. In over 100,000 letters, this review showed absolutely no change in the amount of conspiracy theory belief over time. In fact, the percent of letters about conspiracy theories actually declined from the late 1800s to the 1960s and has remained steady since then."
They cite: American Conspiracy Theories - Joseph Uscinski & Joseph Parent.
"Yet that's exactly what the Russian collusion narrative was. A lie."
That's false equivalency. There is 1000+ page report by the Republican led senate about Trump and Russia. It's highly suggestive that the senate was investigating him because of his and his associate ties with Russia. And Russia also interfered in the election to boot. No one knows the full truth yet and we may never know it.
As opposed to the election fraud claims from 2020: they are just baseless accusations from Trump that have no evidence to warrant further investigation and got thrown out of every court. If they turn out to be legitimate concerns, I'm sure the senate will investigate them.
BTW, most news media is overly dramatic regardless of which way it leans.
