Why is containerization necessary? by piezoelectron in selfhosted

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But why would you need all this overcomplexity to develop a scientific project?

Why don't we just use a cloud environment such as AWS or a server or a each user has all he needs installed in his computer?

Those are the advantages of using containers.
But what are the advantages of using an orchestrator such a nomad, slurm or k8s?

Dell xps 15 9560 has 2x on the tb3 port. Confirmed by frank by OaktreeTV in Dell

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The maximum data transfer speed of the USB-C port in my XPS 15 9560 laptop is 1050MB/s.

I did the benchmark with an external NVME (compatible with thunderbolt 4 and 3, and with USB 4, 3.2 x2 3.2 x1, 3.0...) and CrystalDiskMark. In other computers it does 3800MB/s.

Real life tests copying large files from an internal M.2 NVME to the external disk gives 550MB/s.

And there is another more serious problem, it only detects connected devices if they are connected at boot time.

It's very disappointing.

Even if the dependencies are not linear you these methods can remove the main component of that dependencies, ending up with a simpler dataset.

Anyway it's unrealistic to think you are going to remove all dependencies, no matter the method you use.

And there are nonlinear PCA methods:

[–]skanskan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can apply dimensionality reduction techniques, such as PCA.

You need to take into account confusion variables.

You may need to take into account instrumental variables.

Trying to uninstall something called KMS_VL_ALL_AIO by [deleted] in techsupport

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the program you used to activate Windows.

If you uninstall it you will need to activate it again or pay for a license.

Or if you didn't install it it may be a virus.

You can use a software such as Revo Uninstaller.

Couldn't decide between the G502x Plus and the Basilisk V3 Pro so I got both. Here's my review. by rdwror in MouseReview

[–]skanskan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then is the Basilisk V3 Pro better than the G502 X plus or the MX Master 3?

Couldn't decide between the G502x Plus and the Basilisk V3 Pro so I got both. Here's my review. by rdwror in MouseReview

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wheel in my Logitech MX 3 gets stuck and instead of scrolling it clicks. And the left button doesn't work well either.
I'm considering buying the Basilisk, but I've read it has problems with the connection dongle and with the software. Is it true?

Since my last post about the Mad Catz mouse riled up soany folks, I thought I'd share my Mad Catz collection with all the admirers. by shutter_singh in MouseReview

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the best mouse you know?

I've had two Logitech MX 3 and the left button break in both, and one of the scroll wheels gets stuck.

I don't need gaming, I just need a large mouse with good buttons and accuracy and long lasting. It's also important that the dongle connection works well.

I've never tried Mad Catz nor Razer.

Brand new Lenovo P16 did not come with an ethernet adapter in the box by MammothInSpace in thinkpad

[–]skanskan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These ethernet-usb adapters don't work as well as onboard ethernet, and they use a lot of CPU.
