  1. This takes me back. I wrote the numerical simulations for my PhD in CUDA, back in 2010-13. I don't even remember the API back then giving you per-thread / non-global memory aside from the thread ID. And there were so few GPGPUs out in the wild that the guides and forums for writing well-optimized CUDA code were simply not there. I haven't touched an Nvidia GPU since then, but videos like this definitely make me want to pick one up just to dust off those brain gears.

  2. I'm sure there are very real and very scary edge cases where this is a real danger, but realistically the economics aren't there for a bad actor to harvest massive amounts of data and sit on it—paying for storage!—for over a decade, hoping they aren't discovering or the data invalidated in the meantime.

  3. Weird. When I watched this episode few hours ago, I could have sworn she was cosplaying as Faris NyanNyan. Does this have anything to do with that weird txt I got last week?

  4. I discovered her channel after bingeing Evangelion for the first time, and I had just finished Steins;Gate when she posted the captcha contest. Either the two of us are Reading Steiner, or there's a Stand Alone Complex afoot.

  5.  @Iswimandrun  Ooh, do you have an FPGA at your disposal? Technically I do with two 7840-based systems, but AFAIK there aren't any Xilinx / XDNA drivers that let you directly manipulate them yet.

  6. No license fees to ARM.

  7. Newbie here taking note of some hilarious UI trolling. Using Mac OS 9 for your "desktop environment"... except where there's the XP start menu with the notepad++ chrome for your text editor (which might really be npp—I never experimented with theming). Also really curious how much of your "workshop" is CGI background, because if those are real classic macs, I'm incredibly jealous (said as someone who daily drives an iMac G4 "restomod").

  8.  @Sven_Dongle  (1) Did you follow the Qualcomm v ARM spat? That had a lot of chipmakers worried; (2) Softbank has been actively looking to sell ARM, and so who knows what ARM's new owner might do? If nothing else, having RISC-V on the market is good competition.

  9. So many Upa plushies!!!

  10. Cool seeing this video come out on the same day as Rebecca "Skepchick" Watson's video of the same format, with the same motivation.
