I briefly tried Futhark for a couple of weeks but it feels like wishful thinking.

Writing efficient GPU programs is all about modeling the hardware memory hierarchy in your algorithms, and using it efficiently, eg by controlling the memory transfers across the hierarchy.

Futhark doesn’t really let you do that, and the consequence is that if you need to use sort, inclusive_scan, or similar, either your Futhark compiler exposes a times primitive for that, or you are out of luck. Sure, that can be done by calling CUB, cutlass, cuFFT, etc. but if you need to solve a problem in your own domain, that means that you probably need to use something else.

I don't understand why we're relying on governments to do this for us. Ethanol is not difficult to make at home and we can do it ourselves (I just don't want to share methods because it's questionably legal in my state/kinda dangerous to do with an open flame).
Yep. This is what we get without social safety nets: a large fraction of the country is constantly perched on the cliff of poverty. Just one big thing has to go wrong and it's all over. Right now, that one big thing is going wrong for virtually everybody all at the same time.
The algorithm of going straight until you hit a wall, and then turning a (constant) angle has some really cool properties -- some angles/starting positions will eventually let you cover the entire floor, while others will produce beautiful repeating patterns [1].

One key insight for visualizing "hitting a wall and then turning" is that you can pretend that the walls in your room are covered with mirrors that you can walk through. Hitting the wall and bouncing at an angle is equivalent to approaching the mirror at your angle, and then continuing straight through it into the mirrored side. You can verify this in your bathroom mirror by bouncing your finger off it, vs. pretending it goes straight through: in both cases, which side of the bathroom does it bounce toward?

After a finite distance of continuing straight through mirror-walls, do you end up in your original location? I.e. can you see the back of your head in the room of mirrors? If so, then you're on a periodic path, and you're not going to cover the entire floor.

Mortality in South Korea is running around 0.6% to 0.7%. It's not likely due to missing lots of mild cases, because they're testing 10,000 people every day, most of them asymptomatic. They've managed to keep the rate low because they took early serious measures to control the spread and avoided overloading their hospitals.

Italy has overloaded its hospitals, and now their doctors are forced to choose who they will save and who they won't.
> won't the price instantly and automatically update to reflect that during the opening auction?

Yes, this is what is referred to as a "gap down" - it produces what is almost a discontinuity in the graph of the price. This is also why the opening price for an asset is often different than its closing price from the previous day.

I heard that Steve Ballmer pushed the idea of the Xbox 360's successor being named "Xbox One". He was hoping people would start calling it 'The One' because it was supposed to be a unifying home media device.

Also, this was around the time Microsoft got sued by Sky and had to change the name of SkyDrive to OneDrive. So there was definately a 'One' branding scheme going on. You also google his 'One Microsoft' reorganization plan and see a clear theme.

It's muddy, because AFAIK, anyone can write on Medium, so it's not immediately recognizable as marketing, correct? Which, I presume, is also part of the strategy.

It's a legit strategy, it's just that one needs to keep in mind to second-guess everything the author says, since it could be a paid ad. Something, something along the lines of commercial and independent reviewers. I guess it's a never-ending war that must be fought.

Price is too low. The time investment required to integrate the platform is large. The probability that the company can operate effectively at $39 is low. For potential customers there is a long term commitment to the process. Viable economics matter in B2B. Good luck.
Good question, but I haven't seen any.

The core concept is that there are a bunch of folks that more or less promise to either post bids (promises to buy) or offers (promises to sell) continuously, and for that promise they (sometimes) get special treatment as 'market makers.'

In an orderly market, there are both bids and offers for every instrument.

A market maker (or really any market participant) desire to participate in the market is a function of a) the rest of their portfolio (whether they are net 'long' or net 'short') and b) their expectations of when and at what price they can unwind the trade if they get 'hit' on their bid (aka someone sells to them at their posted price) or 'lifted' on their offer (aka someone buys from them).

When markets are moving 5-6% an hour, it becomes almost impossible to have any certainty on a) what the rest of your portfolio really looks like and b) when and at what price you might be able to unwind a particular trade.

This results in market makers (and HFT, and other market participants) basically exiting the market.

When people say the 'bid-offer spread is wide' this is usually what they are referring to. All the usual players basically take a step back and say 'too rich for my blood' and then you have wide markets, and 'risk premiums' for assets all over the place.

Circuit breakers are an attempt to slow time down to give people a chance to understand their portfolios better, and hence return to the market. Wide bid-offers represent highly profitable market opportunities, if the market is orderly.

When it's not, you get stuff like an ETF on US government bonds trading as a steep discount to the 'intrinsic value' of the underlying bond portfolio.

Aka chaos.

To quality as the next one, a disease would have to spread very easily from person to person. And that usually implies airborne. Which usually means it attacks the lungs, which usually needs ventilators.

Diseases that are differently transmitted like Herpes and AIDS can be widespread, but they’re unlikely to be the “next one” because they’re easier to contain.

Individual doesn't need to be "ground-breaking" to push humanity forward. Just pushing a little bit helps as well. I think that for instance even majority of postdocs (in useful areas of studies) and significant part of open source developers pushes humanity forward. On individual level it might not be very significant, but take millions of such little pushes and it becomes huge.
No need. If you want to sell 100 shares at the average price over the next 33 days, just sell 3 per day... You don't need anything fancy.
Perhaps an unknowable ahead of time, but if we go into recession due to shutting everything down rather than due to poor market fundamentals, the recovery from the recession could be fairly rapid by historical standards.
This is a really comprehensive table! It lists PLA as "Poly(L-lactide)", giving it a surprisingly good "Fair" grade for autoclaving, and polydimethylsiloxane as "Silicones", rating them "Good". It also lists polycaprolactone, which melts around 70° and can be easily molded by hand while molten, as "Fair". Surprisingly, though (to me), it lists nylon (6 and 6-6) and teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene) as only "Fair", like PLA and PCL, even though at least teflon is totally insensitive to water and commonly used with service temperatures up to 260° (among other things, in FDM printer hotends).

So I wonder if this table might have some significant errors in it? Maybe someone interchanged some plastics without intending to. It can't possibly be correct to put PTFE and PCL in the same category, can it?

Anyway, common plastics it rates as "Good" for autoclaving include acetal (Delrin), polypropylene, silicones, and (for some definitions of "common") PEEK.

Surprisingly polyimide (Kapton), the favorite high-temperature chemically-inert plastic of aerospace and electronics, isn't in the table at all.
Are they not PCs now?
There are several options.

I think you'd line up all the buy orders by descending price, and line up all the sell orders by ascending price. Then there are three possibilities: the buy orders are exhausted, the sell orders are exhausted, or there are enough of each that their prices cross an equilibrium point.

In the latter case, you set the price at the crossing point, and clear all trades that you can at that price.

If the buys are exhausted, you set the price at the sell which clear it. And if the sells are exhausted, you set the price at the buy that will clear it.

It would, under such a system, be advantageous to always have some buys or sells put in that you don't expect to clear, but would produce profitable trades in case of sudden market moves in your favor.

In the past, that function would have been filled by the "market maker" trader.
Yeah i was wondering if it's possible that they've just never had significant traffic before.
To be clear, I am not arguing for central planning.

If I were in charge, I would try to combine (1) a temporary but much broader federally run unemployment system, with (2) measures to prevent short-sighted reallocation of capital resources based on contracts (say leases) that did not adequately anticipate this kind of disruption. My strong emphasis would be on (1).

Part of my perspective is that I remember being very, very annoyed by the bailout of the automakers in 2008. Now, though, I think "where were all those workers going to go?" Would I have really been better off if we had hundreds of thousands more unemployed ex-autoworkers, and no GM? Ultimately, I think Obama made the right call on that.

I am just arguing that in this case, gov't support for struggling individuals and businesses seems quite justified to me, and I think actions meant to support a return to something like the status quo in 2 years are probably wise.

Right, I didn't mean 121° Frankenstein, and I see now that my comment could be misinterpreted as meaning that all common plastics would be fine, when actually I only meant nylon, polydimethylsiloxane, and a few others — and even for nylon I should have been more specific.
It sounds like they're moving to the same naming scheme as cars, where a "Toyota Corolla" is basically the same, but has additional features or performance if you buy a new year model. Supposedly the new Xboxes are no different than consumer computers, so I could see games having a "runs best on Xbox 2021 or newer" label. Also, I remember that the "XBox 360" got its name because they didn't want "XBox 2" to be competing with "Playstation 3".

I have a nice moss carpet in and little plants that bloom purple flowers in the spring. I think perfect grass myth is something that should be done away with, often times if you let the natural plants grow in they keep other weeds like dandelions out. I still mow, but I just let the grass grow where it needs to or places where nothing else is growing. I don't need to fertilize or harm the water drainage either.

I guess you mean "easy" instead of "simple".

"Simple" is very subjective and could be hard to achieve (so is "easy" though). In many objective aspects Lisp is much simpler than "professional" languages in terms of spec, model, symbol.

Languages like Haskell traditionally considered "hard", but it also has a lot of simple aspects - For example, there's no variable in the first glance, only constant. And then it turns out there's even no constant because constant is zero parameter function. At last, almost everything is just a function including tuples which looks like a compiler primitive. Also, there's no such thing as multi-arity functions because there's currying. It eliminates most unnecessary concepts in order to achieve "simple", but it's infamous because it has a "hard" reputation among "professional" programmers.

PS: Surprisingly, Scala's has a much shorter spec than Java, and Scala is one of the most attacked language for being bloated.
It's surprising how much you can tell from videos or images like this.

I often get a sense of familiarity when watching videos online. If a picture or video was shot outside, anywhere along the Wasatch front in Utah, I'm almost guaranteed to be able to pinpoint the location. It's kind of a fun game.
this is a _very_ poor article. it has grammatical errors, clunky writing, inconsistent info, and no public sources except a tweet. hopefully this was machine generated, because if people tried to pass this as journalism they should be fired.

the phrase "one of the people" is used 4 times in 5.5 paragraphs.

"The hacking involved multiple incidents."

"The tweet was in part meant to address the hacking, which involved multiple incidents."

these two sentences are back-to-back.

>The hack involved overloading the HHS servers with millions of hits over several hours.

how does this lead to a distribution of fake information? technically, this article does not make sense.

>The attack appears to have been intended to slow the agency’s systems down, but didn’t do so in any meaningful way, said the people, who asked for anonymity to discuss an incident that was not public.

this is also not congruous with the hack leading to the release of false information, and is grammatically incorrect.
Are you referring to automated trading? How can someone sell without assessing whether they want to sell? Isn't that a contradiction?

For example, if a grocery store is normally open, and I go there to buy groceries only to found out they're closed... I still need groceries. I would just be forced to wait until they're open or go get them from somewhere else. With that reasoning, I would expect halting trades to encourage capital flight to exchanges with liquidity and predictable operation. People prefer to shop at grocery stores that have predictable hours and stocked shelves.
Indeed.

First of all, a DDoS attack (if that's what it was) isn't a hack.

Second of all, remember a "hit" can be incredibly misleading. A single webpage that makes 100 requests is 100 hits. So millions of hits could be merely 10,000's of visits over several hours...

...which sounds entirely reasonable, no? Like someone popular on Twitter posting a link to the site.

I've become convinced that the original ANSI committee didn't intend to create the monster they did.
The reason is that Dennis Ritchie wrote a submission to the committee¹ that described the ‘noalias’ proposal as “a license for the compiler to undertake aggressive optimizations that are completely legal by the committee's rules, but make hash of apparently safe programs”, and, that “[i]t negates every brave promise X3J11 ever made about codifying existing practices, preserving the existing body of code, and keeping (dare I say it?) ‘the spirit of C.’”

Those comments describe what ‘undefined behaviour’ turned in to. The only reason dmr and others didn't make the same objections to it is that nobody realized at the time what the committee wording implied.

I used to work at a non-US exchange, and I can tell you that the exact answer to your question must be in that particular exchange’s rules, or in the SEC filings somewhere.

In my market, the “auction” was just a period where the answer to the question “at what price do we clear the most volume currently sitting in the order book?” was being calculated by the computer.

edit:

“Isn’t that just the price where the best bid matches the best ask?”

No, because matching stops for a little while before an auction. Also, you can place some orders that will only participate in the auction.

So your order book might have a whole lot of bids at different prices encroaching into the offer side (or vice versa). Unlike during continuous trading where I don’t think bids can cross into offers (because they’d be matched and removed).

The job of our auction computer was to figure out which of those price levels would remove the most volume from the book.

Your comment ignores the dimension of the market that is volume and only focuses on price.

If you hold inventory, you might be able to sell one unit at $x, but the buyer willing to buy the next 99 units may only be willing to offer a lower price.

The notion of a "market price" for a stock is misleading in the same way. Price represents consensus, but it is only the most shallow consensus, as many participants would not transact that price but would instead offer a worse price. Liquidity is the notion of how much the price for large volumes differs from the price for smaller ones.

Liquidity is arguably the more important concept, and so artificially batching transactions into less frequent time slots reduces liquidity and thus increases risk.

Circuit breakers, like many finance regulations, are intended to address the emotion-driven aspect of prices as perceived by humans, but should not be necessary as trading becomes more algorithmic and less superstitious.

Circuit breakers are, in effect, a clove of garlic worn around the neck of animals who are better suited to cheering on football clubs than they are to executing abstract strategies.
I agree. My thought was such 2-for-1 kits would be strictly for very temporary, situational use in an emergency only.

The idea of making kits in advance was simply that in such an emergency having staff scrounging adapters and tubes is it's own cost and have a kit that's ready and been at least a little bit thought through makes this a little more likely to succeed. I was also hopeful, as discussed in the Reddit thread by docs who know a lot more than I, that filters and optimal routing could help minimize cross-contamination.

It also appears from papers released in the last few days that CV19 is most contagious just after developing significant symptoms but before progression and also that reinfection is looking very unlikely or impossible (they gave macaque monkeys CV19, let them get over it and they couldn't reinfect them despite trying to).

The whole thing could be a dumb idea but the paper and discussion seemed relevant enough to bring to people's attention because a lot of engineers are talking about designing DIY ventilators which seems a lot harder and even at 'maker' speed may not arrive fast enough in volume should the very worst happen in some areas.
Many vaccines only use parts of the virus (such as proteins from the exterior of the virus). These vaccines can't cause infection because only certain parts of the virus are included, not whole viruses.
