If you ever wondered about the generalization to multiple classes, there is a reason that the gans look totally different:

It turns out 2 classes is special. Better to add the classes as side information rather than try to make it part of the main objective.

How long is your battery life? I've replaced the battery 2 times in my MBP 2015 (iFixit battery) but battery life is only 2.5 hours and I'm perplexed.

Thanks! Where does the "want" come from to compare your "got"s to? If the customer code handles errors gracefully, can you still surface undesirable behavior?

Is there a correlation between recently (last 10 years?) logged areas and wildfires? I watched Wasted Wood by Harvey Richards lately and was surprised to see how much waste is left on the forrest floor, 15-30% of the tree. Seems like it could be an unnatural dense source of flammable material.

The US is the world's biggest lumber producer and Canada is often #2 as far as I can tell.

I'm a woodworker and this movie from 1964 was fascinating. At one point it said 'one day the 16" board will be a museum piece' and I just laughed because it is too true! The only non-composite boards I have seen that wide are $100s of dollars per foot and have such funky grain, checking, cracking, or splitting that I'm sure would have been ripped down by traditional pre-industrial revolution carpenters.

I'm looking forward to multi-gpu tests!

Would be good to see if it is worth upgrading x4 and x8 setups.

Single gpu upgrade being worth it is a no-brainer. Launch price of the 30xx cards is lower that then purchase-able price of the two comparison cards!

If only you could buy them though. The only microcenter in PA got 15 of each 30xx on respective launch days.

If anyone knows how many of these cards are being produced please do share.

What do advertising-required websites like business insider look like with pi hole? Do they still allow browsing? With ad block on opera for example I am forbidden from browsing with a "it looks like you're using an ad blocker" page.

Yea I mean that book basically says that Baum wasn't interested in using his or any algorithm with trading. He just had hunches and a value system that he really believed in for what world events would do to currency prices. I think that part of the book is totally believable. Medallion didn't make a name for itself until long after Baum left.
