Some recent discoveries indicate that LLMs might remember information after seeing it only once. See e.g.: https://www.fast.ai/posts/2023-09-04-learning-jumps/
It is possible to run everything on CPU, even if we fastai 1.0. Only training can be 100 times slower than on GPU. Even for a toy exercises involving image processing and actual deep networks (30-150 layers) it means…
The second part of the course (https://course.fast.ai/part2) - builds stuff bottom-up, starting from matrix multiplication all the way up to ResNets. This is a great resource even if you want only use Pytorch.
According my unscientific tests, it is about over 100 times faster. On my laptop I can throw one million exceptions in 15ms millisecond, when reusing the same exception objects, compared to 2 seconds when creating a new…
Technically in Java it is possible to create an exception object once, and throw it multiple times, making throws much cheaper as the stack trace is filled during the object's construction only.
That is not correct. 15 is total maximum number of repeats including the first one. Even the diagram on https://ihateregex.io/expr/username correctly says that loop can be taken between 2 and 14 times.
Apparently Amazon initially paid authors by e-book downloaded by users, but some authors abused this model. E.g. by splitting a 300-pages book to 6 50-pages books. It also enabled plain fraud, where fraudsters created…
It will be very exciting to learn how life on Mars is different or similar to life on Earth. It would teach us what are might be fundamental blocks of life, and what is optional or can be "implemented" differently. It…
With 900MHz and 32MB RAM it is more powerful than PCs when Doom launched (around 50MHz and 8MB RAM), so I guess it should be capable running Doom.
"Fossil" means "remains of plants or animals", but in the context of environmental aspect of fuels the key aspect is emission of CO2. Nuclear is neither of that. On the other hand it is non-renewable like fossil fuels.…
