Can anyone comment on how efficient the Warp code is compared to manually written / fine-tuned CUDA?

They literally just saved the world, and we’re not going to give them any credit for it…?

I’m sorry, but what is the play on words in the title “Attention is all you need” here?

Going to echo the suggestions for the Art of Problem Solving books, particularly I recommend the contest books (vol 1 or 2). Several very talented people have said to me that these books taught them how to think. Maybe a bit exaggerated, but they’re very good.

That’s true, but my view is even if the original article is unbiased, the selection process by which it was chosen to appear on this periodical with the reach it has introduces some statistical bias.

Does anyone have suggestions with where to find more exercises? I notice the book pdf has like ~38 total, but was curious where one would find more.

Human Revolution was wonderful, but Mankind Divided had such bizarre pacing… I was ~15 hours into Prague, waiting for the transition to the next locale like in all of the other Deus Ex games, and then the story ended… sigh

You mean Pembroke? Probably more like 5-10 kids a year. Even my public suburban kc high school had 7ish kids going to ivies my year.

Could someone explain why refactoring is so much easier in functional languages?

I’m confused — why can’t the sex workers just claim to be independent masseuses or something else innocuous like that?

Can you give an example of a system that’s in place to ensure workers are near max capacity most of the time?

Linux kernel has a bunch of gotos, primarily used to just jump to exit / deallocate on kmalloc failure, without having to unnecessarily complicate the control flow to handle that.

This is super cool, and helps fill a hole I had always been frustrated by during my own self-education.

I am curious to know approximately how many hours the courses take, and if you can share anything about which future courses you have in the works?

This take seems a bit pessimistic about the longevity of society to me. If we still have tens or hundreds of thousands of years to go, just going with whatever was best by 2020 seems a bit ad hoc. Not that I know the future.

It should be totally deterministic with the use of random seeds, I think.
