Titan V100's are pretty good for double precision, needs almost same operation intensity as Xeons to fully utilize them.


On a similar note, does someone know of a resource which explains parallel abstractions/languages.


Goetz explains several parallel abstractions above the OS mutexes. Java also has Atomics, Streams, ForkJoin, and ThreadPool resources in their concurrency library. Probably starting to age at this point, but its a lot nicer than using locks.


Can you share the respiratory


I think by Goetz the parent meant the book by Brian Goetz -> "Java Concurrency in Practice"


Slightly unrelated: I am a complete beginner in Javascript, and I was trying it out for a small web-based UI. I was surprised how importing one js into another was non-intuitive. One would need to import all the js's into the main HTML. Feel free to correct me if I am abusing it.


AMD is giving Intel a tough time! Checkout the new Ryzen series processors.



I dislike this style of writing. There is too much unnecessary build up by a company which boasts about root cause analysis.


> For one Teavana listing, the top customer review says the tea had a “terrible chemical smell” possibly from spoiled fruit

It seems like an exaggeration, the listing states that the product got a 4.5/5 rating.(https://www.amazon.com/Teavana-Beach-Bellini-2-lbs/dp/B07B3Q...)


FakeSpot apparently rates it as a "D" grade. Take that as you will though.

All Amazon reviews should be considered highly suspect by default, until determined otherwise.


> 24 minute read

A simple (number_of_words)/(200WPM) isn't a great metric when words from code snippets are also counted.


What would you suggest instead? We still read words from code snippets.


According to that metric you spend 1 minute to read this --

Looks like the patent assignee(https://patents.google.com/?inventor=Leigh+M.+Rothschild) has filed a lot of similarly vague patents.


For me, you missed the most interesting parts of the article which were the TI's lobbying efforts.
