Installing tensorflow with GPU support is a PITA - you have to take care to have the right CUDA-toolkit and CUdnn version! Ugh!!!

2024-09-29 14:37:04

I am doing https://github.com/srush/GPU-Puzzles/
My solution for puzzle 9 "Pooling" is
def pool_test(cuda):
def call(out, a, size) -> None:
shared = cuda.shared.array(TPB, numba.float32)
i = cuda.blockIdx.x * cuda.blockDim.x + cuda.threadIdx.x
local_i = cuda.threadIdx.x
mysum = 0
for j in range(max(0,i-2), i+1):
mysum += a[j]
out[i] = mysum
return call
But I doubt that this is the solution, as I don't utilize the shared memory...

Außerdem, mir ist die Art und Weise, wie Wege in OSM eingetragen werden, besser gesagt, wie sie gerendert werden, nicht geläufig. Ich will eigentlich auf den ersten Blick sehen, ob ein Weg für Fahrrad geeignet ist . dass es diverse Map Styles gibt verwirrt mich ehrlich gesagt mehr.

Mailing list etiquette:
If you wanna reply to a reply to something you posted in a mailing list, do you hit "reply" in your mail client on
the mailing list message or
the message that was sent directly to you?
Do you take
the mailing list in To and the participant in CC or
the other way around?
And does it even matter?

Uvoksc daily struggle.
"Huh?? Why does the LwIP stack send an ACK for a second incoming TCP connection?? I only accept one at a time!?!?"
Apparently, that's a "backlog", and it's suffering you can't turn off completely.
If I really want to only work with one client at a time, I probably have to accept and close the other sockets immediately?
(No, setting backlog to 0 on listen doesn't help)

Or even "print me the first help line of the config entry". Sure, I could cobble together a script for that... but eh...

Yet, even if I order from, say, Mouser, Element14, they get their stuff from China as well ("All electronics come from there", more or less?)?
I don't plan to order electronics anyway. Actually I would like to get rid of some stuff that's been sitting unused for years...

You enter a tent. Inside, there's a grey cheetah laying. He seems to be asleep, his body is heaving with his breath, yet you seem watched. You can't tell if he's anthro or feral. Both images seem to swim before your eyes, sometimes fading to the one, then to the other form. A low noise is thrumming in your ears.
a) Leave the tent as fast as possible
b) Ask him if he has wares
c) Ask him for long-forgotten words or ancient melodies
d) Tell him there's a horse in aisle five
e) other
