hey quick question
what drugs were the RMII people on
multiplexing a fully asynchronous signal (CRS) with a fully synchronous signal (DV) to get this weird... half-asynchronous-half-synchronous thing where *some* rising edges are referenced to REF_CLK and some are not, but all falling edges are
what is wrong with them? and more importantly how the fuck are you supposed to use it in a MAC??

Can somebody point me towards a Myers diff algorithm in a C project?
I am looking for the following data as diff result:
1. (old) line number
2. (old) column number
3. (new) line number
4. (new) column number.
Need the above info so I can ask my text editor widget to highlight the line and column as to what was added/deleted.
Please reboost for reach :)

Optimizers Qualitatively Alter Solutions And We Should Leverage This
Due to the nonlinear nature of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), one can not guarantee convergence to a unique global minimum of the loss when using optimizers relying only on local information, such as SGD. Indeed, this was a primary source of skepticism regarding the feasibility of DNNs in the early days of the field. The past decades of progress in deep learning have revealed this skepticism to be misplaced, and a large body of empirical evidence shows that sufficiently large DNNs following stand…

As usual we watched the "Stoertebekker" stage play at Ralswiek on Rügen Island. The stage setups and wardrobes were as awesome as always. They really try to improve on that every year and come up with clever mechanisms to transform the building for the various acts of the play. The script this year left room for desire ;) Nevertheless a happing worth attending

Hate to bring up HP but no other book has given me as close a feeling as when I read HP. Truly a joy to read with the world feeling both real and magical.

He seemed such a nice person, I think he is a model in a Scandinavian country.
When I asked him why he was sending me a friend request he go…
