This seems like a better version of CUDA, for Hopper GPUs?

I like to use the bongo drum controller to play super smash bros with my friends! It's a fun and goofy time!

By any chance does anyone here know where I could find the text data from obituaries? I thought might have some luck asking the HN crowd! It's for a research paper I'm working on.

I inherited a lot of these too that I probably won't read. Do you want me to send mine to you?

I thought this was kind of a lame article. The point of behavioral economics is to systematically understand the heuristics people are using. That is hard to do!
Trying to describe all the heuristics together is difficult and untestable -- i.e., not that good for the experimental research which most behavioral economists practice. Still it is well-known in the field that this is an open question worth theorizing about and I think many people do[1][2], although there is not a consensus on the "best" theory as far as I know.
The author like then lauds some impressive/hard to conduct/large-scale interventions which are formidable but don't really teach us about economic theory, and in fact neither were published in economics journals. Maybe the field should move in that direction, I am agnostic on the point, but the author's argument wasn't coherent in my opinion.

I second the book rec, I thought it would be fairly predictable and lame, but it turned out to be completely awesome.

I don't think most people "lie about it", at least not intentionally.
I think it's more likely they get really caught up in the moment or something among those lines. I am interested in what in what it would be like to go to a concert of a bar with one of these people.

I'm not the OP, but this from the Matt Levine newsletter last week, which I think is what he is getting at:
> 1. If you hold your coins at a regulated exchange, sure yeah the authorities can probably get a warrant and seize your Bitcoins.
> 2. If you hold your coins in your own wallet but you write down your private key in, like, your phone’s notes app, and it backs up to the cloud, then the authorities can probably get your cloud provider to give them access to your notes and read the key and use that to seize all your Bitcoins. (This happened to the alleged Bitfinex hack launderers.)
> 3. If you write your private key on a scrap of paper, the authorities can search your house until they find it and seize all your Bitcoins.
> 4. If you memorize your private key, or just write it down somewhere really safe, then they can arrest you and throw you in jail until you tell them what it is, and then seize all your Bitcoins.

Can someone with more experience help me recognize the differences between this version and the released version? I'm having trouble hearing them.
