I would begin with contacting an appropriate state department that helps those people and seeing if they know of any similar organizations, or if they provide grants for non-profit organizations that can assist people in poverty that way. California had quite a bit of money allocated for that, which led to some abuse of the system by a few of them.

It could have taken time for the BTC from his wallet to be marked as tainted. Once that happens, the person who buys the 10BTC is bag holding. I wonder what happens if it's an exchange holding tainted BTC, though. Will it be excluded from the supply indefinitely?

I believe that these descriptors are created only based off the visual image:

A face descriptor is obtained from the learned networks as follows: the centre 224 × 224 crop of the face image is used. The shorter side is resized to 256, and the CNNs descriptor is computed for this region by extracting the deep features from the layer adjacent to the classifier layer. This leads to a 2048 dimensional descriptor, which is then L2 normalised.

What is wrong with taking profit from their work? All she had a resource she wouldn't have been able to create value from no matter how much time she had in life.

As mean as this sounds to read, it's the truth. I personally know families who had an autistic child, did their best to accommodate and integrate them, but the child grew up to be nonverbal, destructive, etc.

Of course it's not always true. The poster is right that autism isn't inherently bad, just different.

Although the cost of cloud backups are egregious compared to the cost of raw storage, I'll pay a premium for the peace of mind that comes from letting someone else be held liable for storing my data and credentials to access it. I can easily upload/download files to google, iCloud, or Dropbox from almost any device knowing only my email and password, which I find preferable to having to remember an arbitrary 29 word seed. With the amount of exit scams in cryptocurrency, too, I just don't trust any project to continue to provide the same amount of utility that they do now, if they provide any at all.

I suppose you could use a custodian site to link an email and password to the seed, but then you enter a centralized third party to the mix.

I see value in Sia but it's just not for the average person in its current state.

Considering the fact that 1 USB C Thunderbolt port can power a dock that could do multiple HDMI, Ethernet, USB, VGA, etc, I agree completely and I hope that they release a Raspberry Pi4C.

Under this model, each SM on an NIVIDA GPU corresponds to a more traditional CPU core. These SMs would contain some number of 32-wide vector registers. It seems that CUDA exposes operations on vector registers as a warp. They appear to be 32 threads because each instruction on 32 lanes at once, while the threads must proceed in lock step because they are actually a single stream of instructions.

Is vector processors being open-source a desirable quality (compared to general attractiveness of open-source)?

Absolutely. Imagine an initiative to create a standardized open-source GPU for Linux? This vector processor could provide open source silicon IP to help build it.

This chip is just another step towards fully open-source systems.

Going home feels so meh... I can go work through more Sherlock Holmes videos or Netflix series or work on music or art, but there is no one to share with, no one to talk to throughout the day, no one to engage with on my passions. I just kinda laze about without more contact.

Invite someone over!

If anyone in Providence, RI wants to hang, let me know!

I actually live in Cranston, lol. You like biking? Cryptocurrency? Music production?

The strangest thing is that certain software is ransomware/fake seed bombed to the point where you literally cannot access the legitimate software torrents. Around page 40 in the search results, TPB stops loading entries in the search pages.

I think I recall this with Adobe PhotoShop...
