King Frederick, the great of Prussia had a very fine army, and none of the soldiers in it were finer than Giant Guards, who were all extremely tall men. It was difficult to find enough soldiers for these Guards, as there were not many men who were tall enough.
Frederick had made it a rule that no soldiers who did not speak German could be admitted to the Giant Guards, and this made the work of the officers who had to find men for them even more difficult. When they had to choose between accepting or refusing a really tall man who knew no German, the officers used to accept him, and then teach him enough. German to be able to answer if the King questioned him.
Frederick, sometimes, used to visit the men who were on guard around his castle at night to see that they were doing their job properly, and it was his habit to ask each new one that he saw three questions: “How old are you?” “How long have you been in my army?” and “Are you satisfied with your food and your conditions?”
The offices of the Giant Guards therefore used to teach new soldiers who did not know German the answers to these three questions.
One day, however, the King asked a new soldier the questions in a different order, he began with, “How long have you been in my army?” The young soldier immediately answered, “Twenty – two years, Your Majesty”. Frederick was very surprised. “How old are you then?”, he asked the soldier. “Six months, Your Majesty”, came the answer. At this Frederick became angry, “Am I a fool, or are you one?” he asked. “Both, Your Majesty”, the soldier answered politely.
Interesting article. The article mentions "...the NumPy implementation illustrates a marked improvement over the naive algorithm...", but I couldn't find a NumPy implementation in the article.
Yes, they are really great at abstracting the SIMD operations, but the abstraction has only very few common methods. I'm not sure how much real world benefits those abstractions have.
Once you need more complex operations, you need to use the specific operations from System.Runtime.Intrinsics.(X86|ARM) based on the current architecture. And you need to adjust your implementation on the CPUs capabilities. There are still a lot of older x64 CPUs around that don't have AVX512 for example.
If you ever want to use Resoume, I would give you a free upgrade on your account for your help.
I would need the email you used for the registration to do so :)
You can have 5 or 10 applications at the same time. But you can iterate, delete, recreate and download them as many times as you want.
I am not a featured post but in the marketplace on AppSumo. So it is much harder to get noticed by the audience. They have different outreach stages, depending on the number of positive reviews. So in the beginning it is up to you to get five 4 star reviews. After that they will mention you in the fb group. Also the share between you and AppSumo is better I think. But not 100% sure.
"The company is hoping that considering people already come to YouTube for short video entertainment, Shorts will be another way to keep people on the site longer and get both existing and new creators to continue uploading."
But the content creators with the most subscribers and the most views are the ones with longer, well produced videos. Not sure if people who come to the site to consume longer videos will appreciate 15-second short videos as well
