Hm. What is the point? If you are in the field, you'll know most of these terms naturally. If you aren't, then you'll just forget them after passing the exam, or whatever.

Sounds like extra-thick satire to me.
My guess is, the pink band is current (er, 2011 versions) of what the global average temperature was. Which makes the 60's even cooler (heh). As with all things, it depends on how you measure.

global mean global giss is here - http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v3/

So anyway, i'd agree the centering of zero sure could change things, but it sure seems like predictive power in the rates of change. Like, temperature isn't stable, it's not going down, it's going up and it looks like it's going up at about that rate.

edit

but that sort of goes back to the original point, all we really have is models. you held up physics as an example, but if we look at something like the gravitational constant, things are really screwy. As far as i can tell, 3 really first rate teams came up with 3 different answers - not even overlapping in the error bands. big G is obviously helpful, but it must be more complicated than we understand right now.

I dunno. I kind of like the european model for chemical handling. Super toxic chemicals in tiny quantities aren't that big of a deal, maybe 50 people die, so it's not heavily regulated. Mildly toxic chemicals in large quantities, same deal. Maybe 50 people die. Large quantities of toxins are regulated in proportion to the risk. The point is, balancing the risk against the best current understanding really seems like the best that can be done.

> the studies themselves have already been peer reviewed and as such don't need to be questioned individually

Just to add a bit to your comment: Peer review is a community's way of saying a paper stands up to their best understanding of methods at the time. The author could have accidentally left something out, misrepresented their approach or fabricated things. Peer review would not catch that, but replication or failure to replicate would. They are two different things.

For example, I remember one experiment could never be replicated by anyone except the author and his students. So, it got a bit heated. Ultimately, they found it was an experimental setup, not reported in the paper because they didn't think it was important, that allowed the experiment to work. So, it passed peer review, failed replication, but ultimately, because of failed replications and the academic process, further information came to light and knowledge was created.

The academic process can be slow and frustrating. But, when applied properly, it is our best approach to expanding knowledge. That isn't to say it can't be improved, especially regarding failure to replicate and null-hypothesis papers. Academics know this and are working on methods around this, methods called out in these discussions.

Some of the most innovative people i've found, seeking ways to improve this process have been NSF and NIH officials. So, it's promising, but slow.

As few people noticed, The content of the question displays way of thinking that is incompatible with VC.

My approach right now is to find an angel investor who could spend reasonable amount of time with me. Effectively a mentor, to help me with answers for question like yours.
But the real reason is "we didn't set up our system properly".

This is like saying "Hitachi Storage hard drives broke" when you actually mean "we didn't run RAID".

I'm running a one-man show trying to reach profitability on a niche market so that I can later do some serious research in the area. As it is a very small niche, quite uninteresting for investors, it's good for me since I would never have the freedom to do independent research if I was to accept their money.. The downside is that I'm burning my own money, but I can do whatever I want and even quit if I get bored!

What I'm saying is that you should align your "strategy" with your own goals. If you guys are growing organically, are profitable and don't have crazy goals like trying to conquer the world, then welcome to the sane side of the equation! Leave the crazy working hours and unrealistic goals to those with the big egos.. If lots of money and being powerful is what matters to you (I think it should be considered a disease), then go for it as well..

Telecom and mainframes were/are an insular world. But unlike mainframes, telecom reached into every home.

Also, it had global reach, operated on trust, and quite often security by obscurity was the only thing that stood between you and a free call to the pope.

Keep in mind that this all took place just as the first microcomputers that were practical to use (keyboard in, tv out, booting to cli from rom) became available.

All in all it was a age of innocence and exploration.
If it was going to be real satire, they would have stuck at least one reference to a unique chip, say the Lays Wavy with Old Bay Spice. I'm going with it was a chip glossary that the author thought important.

Given this situation, you could potentially raise money from your users, which would be the best of both trade-offs you seem to have. They're not going to strong-arm you into work 120 hour weeks, can appreciate sane and modest returns, and you can do whatever you like. On the other hand, one thing they DON'T have is experience keeping companies from dying. Your institutional investors have that in spades. They've seen dozens of companies die, and they've seen why and exactly how. The reason they need to push you for an outsize return, at the expense of your comfort, is to make up for these. Your outcome and end game is good. Rather than ask if anyone's life ever became more comfortable, perhaps you should ask whether anyone regretted their exit, getting paid off after working hard and driven in part by an institutional investor?

As far as raising money from your users (which I don't recommend, but would unlock what you seem to see as the best of both worlds), I literally got an email about a service I use doing this today. When I got the email I didn't click the "Get shares today" button from the email (which wasn't spam and which I read carefully), but just now I did re-open that email and clicked the button to see where the "get shares now" went, as part of writing this comment.

Where they sent me was: https://www.seedinvest.com and which presumably you can find that coverage easily online (Forbes covered it, they claimed).

Personally, I don't know how I feel about having users invest. Regulation D and the idea of accredited investors had existed for very, very good reason. But there are examples for you to follow. I'm not sure if I can recommend it. It doesn't seem to be a good direction for most companies, and leads to poor outcomes for companies and for users. It also seems very ripe for scams, which a high level of transparency would help you prevent. At any rate it's an option. Personally, I recommend going with the institutional investor.
I took it as "the Rust version is in userspace, and therefore will be slower than the in-kernel version."

I think it's good in the long run too.

Maybe UK decunstructs itself, because Northern Ireland and Scottland leave it and join the EU anyway.

The EU can use the rest of UK to create an example, so no other country will leave in the future.

After that I think Londons tech hub will spread more to Ireland or Germany. Many people already use Ireland to create cheap companies and Berlin pushes hard to become the SF of Europe.

These will be bad times for the UK but I think it will wake the people up and they will fix their country.
Scientists Devise New Way to Find an Elusive Element: Helium
You're right - I though there where going to be circuit diagrams, or possibly pin-outs...
err no.

outside of rarely used acl systems basic unix/linux permissions are far less granular than the windows equivalents.

For desktops modern windows handles things very similarly to modern linux, which is to say that you don't run as "root" or "administrator" by default and programs request escalated privileges via sudo on linux and UAC on windows.

As to privesc vulns, most desktop linux distros have limited protections there. One kernel bug can see someone escalate from user to root fairly easily.

With modern Windows apps there is at least a sandbox in play, so that a sandbox escape is required in addition to the kernel bug.

Both Operating systems can be configured to be more secure of course...

Sounds like you want to profit from your unfair advantage, but you are not interested/motivated (any more) in doing the work (eg. more interested in focusing on private life and/or other projects to be more happy).

So you need to find someone who is interested enough in your unfair advantage that he is willing to be responsible for investment AND operations (AND giving you some money now).

In case your unfair advantage is really that good, have you considered selling the company. Keeping some shares.

I find the media, here and in the UK, have become more accepting of racism. Encouraging it. Against blacks and mexicans and muslims here, and against polish and refugees there.

This creates an aura of conformity as viewers and readers nod to the views of their favorite talkers eventually absorbing them into their own.

The ultimate effect of this can be seen in the Rwandan genocide. It was the radio that made people do it in that case.

> increase performance of an existing framework

Cautionary tale following...

I don't know the background on this but your goal might not be realistic, unless the rest of the framework architected in a GPU friendly way.

I was once hired for such a project (some scientific applications in chemistry). They had a clear idea what needed to be improved, their Python framework called into C code for some non-trivial matrix operations. This was at the top of the profile so making it faster would have improved the overall performance.

However, each matrix operation was just tens to hundreds of kilobytes in size. Doing them with the GPU was 100x faster, but the latency of getting the data to the GPU and back eliminated any gains.

It's clear that doing these on the GPU would have improved overall performance if the operations could be batched. But the framework was tens of thousands of LOC of scientist-written Python code that was mission critical and could not be rewritten in the time and budget we had.

GPU programming is high throughput at the expense of high latency. It is very difficult to retrofit into a CPU-only framework or application. You need to consider memory management and synchronization for the GPU from ground up.
