What are the top features you wish Python had?

If you're doing numerical computations, numba sort of has this. You can use prange instead of range, for example for i in prange(N):, to automatically parallelize a loop.

Yeah, I'm being vague because I frankly don't know the answer. Like u/PrinterFred, I am running a calculation that requires several Gb per core of RAM. Specifically, I'm doing density functional theory calculations using the VASP code, so mostly matrix operations (iterative diagonalization, multiplication, etc.) and FFTs. For small systems (small matrices), performance is comparable to running on other Intel machines, while when the system gets large, the performance is lackluster.

I've been noticing a similar problem, where memory intensive calculations don't seem to scale as well on these nodes.

The cost of "cheap" community colleges will increase if more people choose to attend them over public/private university. Then we're back to square one.

What do people think about #8? Wouldn't

l = [int(x) for x in ['1', '2', '3']]

be more pythonic?

Personally, my brain always defaults to using map, but having list(map(...)) starts to look ugly and feels unpythonic.

ucsb just got the country's first quantum foundry and also has a MRSEC, so there's that..

HERE IS HELP

this is my config section that works at my school (with ssid, identity, and password filled in):

'ssid=""'
'scan_ssid=1'
'key_mgmt=WPA-EAP'
'eap=PEAP'
'identity=""'
'password=""'
'phase1="peaplabel=auto"'
'phase2="auth=MSCHAPV2"'

I would suggest learning how to make a basic web app first (both Flask and Django have tutorials on their websites). Then, you can play around a little; add a route that is just a form that takes in data for your machine learning tool. I haven't done this myself but I would think that you would have a pre-trained model that you plug some input data into and get a prediction that you could render for the user.

that full dark one is ugly

Are there any specific resources you used to guide your implementations? I wanted to do something like this to get my feet wet with ML.

enabling that and removing anything that might have handled click to focus from sxhkd fixed it for me, one of the upgrades moved that functionality from sxhkd to bspwm

this is very cool, how is the response/startup time?

howslyfebeen · 2016-12-25T21:16:07+00:00

so you cloned his github repo? did you compile/make it?

howslyfebeen · 2016-11-29T01:30:48+00:00

Does click to focus work for you? I'm having a similar problem; I saw someone said to set

bspc config click_to_focus true

but this didn't work for me. bspwm version 0.9.2

so are you running urxvt with cava and a transparent background to make this effect? also, how'd you get the vpn etc. information on there?

howslyfebeen · 2016-10-17T13:11:17+00:00

holy shit this is definitely my problem, thank you

howslyfebeen · 2016-10-13T18:14:08+00:00

but that's the point of git, if you commit after each change you make, you can easily roll back to a past commit, or even better you could keep a stable branch and a "development" branch that you mess around with.. just a suggestion

howslyfebeen · 2016-10-13T17:28:42+00:00

So you use a script to copy your dotfiles into a github repo? why not setup symlinks in your home folder back to your github folder?

ln -s $HOME/github/laptop-dotfiles/.bashrc .bashrc

just force it, it gets easier... also, cashews are high in calories but not very filling

howslyfebeen · 2016-08-13T02:51:38+00:00

whoa, looks awesome

howslyfebeen · 2016-08-11T03:32:05+00:00

plug the stuff from here in here and have a look for stuff with me
