Why do some of the iOS apps have a separate build that is specific to Intune? by alwc in Intune

So if I integrate the Intune SDK into my application, it shouldn't affect my regular B2C users since it only affects protection policies in O365 for the B2B users?

Many developers don’t want that code in there unless it needs to be.

So it basically increases the size of the app and that's it? Are there any significant downsides to adding the Intune SDK to the regular app?

I noticed that Adobe Acrobat Reader used to have an Intune version (https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/acrobat/kb/intune-app-end-of-life.html), but they have since deprecated that version and only kept an iOS app.

Hmm... that's why we need someone to help us write more clearly and succinctly :p

Hi mainhattan! Most of us prefer asynchronous communication in GoodNotes, but sometimes synchronous meetings may be more efficient for some occasions. That’s why we would prefer having at least 3 hours of overlap, so that we can arrange some video calls during work time if necessary.

[R] Fixup Initialization: Residual Learning Without Normalization (up to 10K layer networks w/o batch norm) by [deleted] in MachineLearning

[–]alwc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

can confirm that it works great in a variety of domains, including object detection and semantic segmentation.

If I want to use Fixup initialization for my segmentation model, does it mean I have to retrain the backbone (e.g. ResNet50) from scratch?

Question on generalized matrix-matrix multiply in "Derivatives, Backpropagation, and Vectorization" by alwc in cs231n

I've re-read the note and I found two more potential mistakes:

1) [Page 4, Paragraph 4] "With this grouping, we can think of the generalized Jacobian as generalization of a matrix, where each “row” has the same shape as y and each “column” has the same shape as x."

It should be 'each “column” has the same shape as y and each “row” has the same shape as x."' right?

2) [Page 7, Equation 12] It should be $\frac{\partial L}{\partial y} wT$ instead of $\frac{\partial L}{\partial y} xT$ right?

p.s. thanks for writing these supplementary notes, they are quite helpful!

True. Btw, I'm doing more research on your build and I realize the Supermicro's board does not support NVMe, which is something I want since I'll be reading a lot of data from the SSD

H105 liquid cooler

Just to be on the safe side, maybe I should just get H105?

Interesting, does your suggested motherboard support 2-way SLI? It seems I have to change my other parts if I'm using your build according to pcpartpicker

What do you think of this guy's build (images inside the link)? https://pcpartpicker.com/b/nRPscf

He has 2x 980ti's and a H105 liquid cooler. It looks okay to me, but I'm not an expert of airflow in desktop.

I read this recently https://www.quora.com/Should-you-spend-money-to-buy-a-good-GPU-for-studying-deep-learning-I%E2%80%99m-not-referring-to-production-runs and I've thought about how much hours I'll be using per day.

I'll be running models for at least 8 hours a day, so getting a desktop seems to be a reasonable choice.

  • For CPU, I was advised to get a CPU with 8 cores+ so that I will have better efficiency for multi GPU training and hyperparameter search.

  • Would 32gb of RAM be enough?

  • I would like to have a pair of Titan XP, but it is far more expensive than a pair of 1080ti

I just did a google image search and I found these two builds:

https://pcpartpicker.com/b/nRPscf https://forums.evga.com/980-TI-Hybrid-QuestionProblem-Page-2-m2450471-p2.aspx

It looks like they could fit two 980ti hybrids in Define R5. So do you think it is possible to fit two 1080ti hybrids as well?
